Goodflock

Parody of "Woodstock" by Crosby, Stills, Nash, & Young and Joni Mitchell
Parody Lyrics by Jeff James (the Parodud)
(Matthew 18:11-14, sorry Crosby, Stills, Nash, Young, Mitchell
;-)

Yes, He saves from loss. This child of God,
I was talking with wrong, wrong goats,
And He asked me, "Tell, where are you roaming?"
Thus I told Him.
Well, I'm going 'round to yonder farm,
Oh, to toy with a flock from those lands,
Scope their shepherd who commands, forget I'm holy.

CHORUS:
I've wanderlust, I need scoldin'.
I am rebellin' from God's garden,
And He wants to give us help, and you need pardon.

Well, when one from flock decides to
Fly from home, you look in fog.
Scan, you see, like hyper dog on mountain searching,
And maybe He will find it here.
Yes, and maybe He will find it then.
And He shows His rue for lamb,
Then time is for splurging.

Chorus

By the time I got to good flock,
We practic'lly filled the barn,
And ev'rywhere, angel throng had a jubilation.
And He's pleased He's got the lost one more than
Ninety-nine ones in His sight.
Yearns that little ones don't die.
He loves, no fav'rites.

I've wanderlust, I need scoldin'.
I am far from His gentle garden.
And He wants to give us help, and you need pardon.
Note: Jeff James has written several Parodeities over the years. He has been gracious enough to rewrite many of the parodies appearing in the Parodeity section on Webster. He's done a great job improving some of these tunes in subtle and not-so-subtle ways. I'm absolutely thrilled that he has taken it upon himself to make these improvements; I had hoped when I put all my work in the public domain that it would encourage some people to make these types of modifications to the Parodeities to improve them. It is exciting to see someone doing this kind of work; I hope that Jeff's excellent work will encourage others to write new parodies or "ReVerse" existing parodeities. -- Randy Hyde

BTW, if you don't understand the "Paro-Dud" moniker, visit ApologetiX' site and check out the name of Karl Messner's production company; then you'll probably get the play on words.
