Gabriel Go on Home - Seals & Crofts

My mind begins to wander.

Way back yonder I recall

The day Aunt Osie stood on the porch and said to me, «Be careful of the world

and all.»

She knew much more than I thought, but I was young too young to know

Now I have seen too much too soon and somewhere, and somehow, something’s

a-gonna blow

Gabriel your face is red.

Be careful you’ll hurt your head.

And wind up dead

Like the world has lost its ears and eyes

Is it wise to sympathize, when harmony has been kicked in the knee

And sour notes a-singin' their sad, sad song

Gabriel won’t you go on home.

Gabriel won’t you go on home

My mind begins to wonder, way out yonder I can see

A brand new star has now been born to make things warm and bright for you and me

Hey here, hey there, hey you, I’ve got some proof, it’s really so

Peace on earth, goodwill to men.

And somewhere, somehow, something’s a-gonna

blow

Gabriel your face is red.

Be careful you’ll hurt your head.

And wind up dead

Like the world has lost its ears and eyes

Is it wise to sympathize, when harmony has been kicked in the knee

And sour notes a-singin' their sad, sad song

Gabriel won’t you go on home.

Gabriel won’t you go on home
