NEW RIDERS OF THE PURPLE SAGE
"Parson Brown"

Well, down, down, down, Parson Brown
Was discovered in the well, dead as hell
Now well, well, well, what befell
Dear old kindly Parson Brown and brought him down

Now everybody said he was righteous
And everybody loved him, one could tell
Everyone that is, I guess, except the person
That put Parson Brown in the well
Yeah, who put Parson Brown in the well?

He-he-he-he

Oh yeah, everybody said he was righteous
And everybody loved him, one could tell
Everyone that is, I guess, except the person
That put Parson Brown in the well
Now who put Parson Brown in the well?

My, my, my, now time can fly
And who will tell us how to be without he?

'Cause down, down, down, Parson Brown
Was discovered in the well, dead as hell
