| Joseph,

| Joseph!
|
| Well I was wandering
|
| along by the banks of the river
|
| When seven fat cows
|
| came up out of the Nile,
|
| uh-huh oh yeah!
|
| And right behind these
|
| fine healthy animals came
|
| Seven other cows,
|
| skinny and vile, uh-huh oh yeah!
|
| Well the thin cows ate
|
| the fat cows which I
|
| Thought would do them
|
| good, uh-huh oh yeah!
|
| But it didn’t make
|
| them fatter like such
|
| A monster supper should
|
| Well the thin cows were as thin
|
| As they had ever, ever, ever been
|
| This dream has got me baffled
|
| Hey, Joseph, what does it mean?
|
| Well you know that kings ain’t stupid
|
| But I don’t have a clue
|
| So don’t be cruel Joseph
|
| Help now me I beg of you
|
| So back in Canaan
|
| the future looked rough
|
| Jacob’s family were finding it tough
|
| For the famine has
|
| caught us unprepared
|
| We are thin
|
| We are ill
|
| We are getting scared
|
| It’s enough to make anyone weep
|
| We are down to our very last sheep
|
| We will starve if we hang around here
|
| And in Egypt there’s food going spare
|
| They’ve got corn
|
| They’ve got meat
|
| They’ve got fruit and drinks
|
| And if we have the time
|
| We could see the Sphinx
|
| So they finally decided to go
|
| Here we go!
|
| Off to Egypt to see brother Jo
|
| Oh no — not he
|
| How you can accuse him is a mystery
|
| Save him — take me
|
| Benjamin is straighter
|
| than the tall palm tree
|
| Oh, yes — its true
|
| Benjamin is straighter
|
| than the big bamboo
|
| No ifs, No buts
|
| Benjamin is honest as coconuts
|
| La la la la la la la la…
|
| So Jacob came to Egypt
|
| No longer feeling old
|
| And Joseph came to meet him
|
| In his chariot
|
| Of gold
|
| Of gold
|
| Of gold
|
| Give me my colored coat
|
| My amazing colored coat
|
| Give me my colored coat
|
| My amazing colored coat! |
