barron knights - the chapel lead is missing lyrics
[verse one]
in the village hmmm
deep in the valley
one cold and rainy winter’s night
a figure could be seen creeping
through the early misty light
a ten foot ladder on his shoulder
a heavy hammer in his hand
what had he been doing?
what mischief had he planned?
[verse two]
early
early sunday morning
a vicar went to morning prayer
he found the church was chilly
there was something in the air
the marble font was overflowing
there was water everywhere
he looked up to the ceiling
and found
it wasn’t there
bom bom bom bom
[chorus one]
all the chapel lead was missing
and the rain was pouring down
when they asked who could have done it
they all blamed jimmy brown
while the little congregation
prayed for sunshine from above
’cause the temporary corrugation
made them wet to saturation
’til they thought the place might part
[verse three]
deep
deep in the valley
one cold and rainy monday morn
the police were out there searching
but jimmy brown had gone
they eventually found him
complete with torch and bag of tools
he’d been at his old business
pinching drainpipes from the schools
[verse four]
please
come-along-wiv-me-nah
this friendly word they said to him
i’ll offer no resistance
soon replied our sonny jim
when jimmy brown was questioned
this is what the poor boy said
“i only pinched the drainpipes
someone else took all the lead”
bom bom bom bom
[chorus two]
and the chapel leads still missing
and the rains still pouring down
though they’re sure who is the culprit
the lead still can’t be found
and the little congregation
prayed for sunshine from above
but their constant meditation
will not pay for restoration
of the little church they love
[verse five]
deep
deep in the valley
one cold and rainy tuesday morn
our jim was in the cooler
wishing he had not been born
they questioned him for many hours
but still poor jimmy wouldn’t tell
they blamed him for the church roof
and the missing bell as well
[verse six]
deep
deep in the valley
one cold and rainy wednesday morn
the police took jim his breakfast
but again our jim was gone
the sergeant walked into the cell block
and saw that it was there
he looked up to the ceiling
of course it wasn’t there
gone gone gone gone
{chorus three]
and the chapel leads still missing
and the rains still pouring down
and the organ isn’t playing
’cause the organist has drowned
the collection box is missing
and the vicar can’t be found
and the little congregation
needs a lot of medication
’cause the church has fallen down
