If I Was Jehovah

Cannonball Adderley, Nat Adderley, Diane Lampert, Peter Farrow, George W. George

[CAROLINA, spoken]
Jass, did John Henry know about the baby?

[JASSAWA, spoken]
Sure. He just back up in heaven waitin' to come down again, Carrie. 
(sung)
If I was Jehovah
And sortin' out women
Sortin' out all the women on the face of my earth
To find me a woman
To bear me a Jesus
A new kind of Lord for this Jesusless world—
I'd choose me a woman
That love without shamin'
To coddle that Jesus and save him from harm—
If I was Jehovah
Oh yes, I'd take me this woman
This little child-woman
Asleep, oh yes, asleep
Yes, asleep in my arms
