Genny 22 Lyrics

Parody of "867-5309/Jenny" by Tommy Tutone
(Genesis 22)

Genesis twenty-two's where I turn to
To get the story of Isaac no one knew
I know you think Ike's life was prob'ly a bore
Because his famous father loved the Lord

When he was lots more younger Isaac was saved in time
When the Lord told His father

Abraham sacrifice Me your child
Take sticks sacrifice Me your child
Abraham sacrifice Me your child
Isaac sacrificed, me oh my

Daddy, daddy - that's a grill for meat
And you won't tell me why today we don't have sheep
I tried to tell you before - but I lost my nerve
I tried to find another way son - but I trust His Word

Daddy, I'm on the lumber - why did you take your knife
There is an angel up there
Abraham, I'm satisfied, free your child
Your faith has satisfied me all right
Abraham, I'm satisfied, free your child
Your faith has satisfied me all right
Hey, Daddy! Hey, Daddy!
We've got a lamb there after all
Hey, Daddy! Hey, Daddy!
When you get time - let's have a good long talk!

LEAD
When your begotten son's there
How can you take his life?
Yet we know God the Father
Made this sacrifice with Jesus Christ
Genny 22's where I turn to
God saved Isaac in time and we all must learn the truth
(To make it to Heaven find Jesus Christ)
Find Jesus Christ! Find Jesus Christ!
