Sodom And Gomorrah Lyrics

Sodom and Gomorrah
This is the story, of Sodom and Gomorrah
Two cities that were full, of hatred and lust
Because their crimes were great
Because of all their lust
The Lord decided destruction, was a must

This is what he said
"(Give me) Give me
(Fifty good men) just give me fifty good men
(And I) and I'll, (Spare the whole city)
And I'll spare the whole city
Give me, forty good men
To destroy you all, would be a pity

Oh - Sodom and Gomorrah, Sodom and Gomorrah
Cities with one man you can't trust
Sodom and Gomorrah, Sodom and Gomorrah
Cities full of hatred and lust
Sodom and Gomorrah, Sodom and Gomorrah
Judgment Day is very close by
Sodom and Gomorrah, Sodom and Gomorrah
The flames will reach up high to the sky

God sent two angels (to) Sodom and Gomorrah
They were met by Lot, who bowed to the ground
They went in to his home, before they could sit down
The wicked men of Sodom, gathered 'round
Here's what the angels said
"(Give me) Give me
(Thirty good men) give me thirty good men
(And I) and I'll, (Spare the whole city)
And I'll spare the whole city
Give me, twenty good men
To destroy you all, would be a pity

Oh - Sodom and Gomorrah, Sodom and Gomorrah
Cities with one man you can't trust
Sodom and Gomorrah, Sodom and Gomorrah
Cities full of hatred and lust
Sodom and Gomorrah, Sodom and Gomorrah
Judgment Day is very close by
Sodom and Gomorrah, Sodom and Gomorrah
The flames will reach up high to the sky

The angels found one good man in Sodom and Gomorrah
One man who did not have, a heart full of lust
They told him to leave, to take his family
And run to the mountains, for safety

Their final warning was
"(Give me) Give me
(Just ten good men) give me just ten good men
(And I) And I'll, (Spare the whole city)
And I'll spare the whole city
Give me, just two good men
To destroy you all, would be a pity
Oh - Sodom and Gomorrah, Sodom and Gomorrah
Cities with one man you can't trust
Sodom and Gomorrah, Sodom and Gomorrah
Cities full of hatred and lust
Sodom and Gomorrah, Sodom and Gomorrah
Judgment Day is very close by
Sodom and Gomorrah, Sodom and Gomorrah
The flames will reach up high to the sky
