(Doctor Jones, Doctor Jones, time to go on now,
- Ready boys? It’s show time)
Well, I’ve been walking down the miracle mile.
There’s a place outside of Memphis where I met traveling man,
Preaching on a wall of sound built by his raging band,
I saw a sparkle in his eye when I asked him for his name,
He said, “Doctor Jones is who I am; are you ready to play my game?”
I can take you to the mountain, but only Heaven’s love can set you free, oh.
Doctor Jones and the kings of rhythm, (Doctor Jones)
Doctor Jones is a rhythm king,
Doctor Jones and the kings of rhythm, ma, ma, yeah
Tearing darkness down with a raging swing.
Now give me two,
That’ll do it.
Town-folk wouldn’t hear the Doc and they drove him out of town,
He’d shake the dust right off his feet and leave without a sound,
But you know he spoke the truth to me, gave me reason to believe,
I tell it ‘round the whole wide world: I’ll never be the same.
Well, he took me to the mountain, but it was Heaven’s love that set me free, yeah.
Doctor Jones and the kings of rhythm, (Doctor Jones)
Doctor Jones is a rhythm king,
Doctor Jones and the kings of rhythm, ma, ma, yeah
Tearing darkness down with a raging swing.
Then he wonders if each trail is really worth each dusty mile, yeah,
And every night he dreams right through the pain,
He smiles; he knows his labour’s not in vein.
Doctor Jones and the kings of rhythm, speaking holy truth right down to me, oh,
Doctor Jones and the kings of rhythm, speaking truth that set me…speaking truth that set me free.
Doctor Jones,
Doctor, Doctor, Doctor, Doctor, Doctor Jones
Doctor Jones and the kings of rhythm, tearing darkness down.
Doctor Jones and the kings of rhythm, (Doctor Jones)
Doctor Jones is a rhythm king,
Doctor Jones and the kings of rhythm, ma, ma, yeah
Tearing darkness down with a raging swing.
