Pharaoh, Pharaoh
The chorus tune is the same one for the old rock & roll song "Louie, Louie".
This was a favorite camp song! I can only remember some of the
actions...just use them during the chorus.
Make sure to have lots of fun with it, just rap the verses.
Pharaoh, Pharaoh (hands
with palms together over the head)
oooh baby, (point fingers down)
let
my people go (throw arms and thumbs over shoulder)
Ooh-ah, ya ya ya ya (fingers
spread, shake over head)
I said,
Pharaoh, Pharaoh,
oooh
baby,
let my people go
(Ooh-ah, ya ya ya ya)
Well a burnin' bush told me
just the other day
That I should come over here and stay
Gotta get my people out of Pharaoh's hand
And lead them all to the promised land.
I said, …
Pharaoh, Pharaoh
oooh baby,
let
my people go
Ooh-ah, ya ya ya ya
I said,
Pharaoh, Pharaoh,
oooh
baby,
let my people go
(Ooh-ah, ya ya ya ya)
Well-a me'n God's people comin'
to the Red Sea
And Pharaoh's army comin' after me
I raised my rod and stuck it in the sand
And all of God's people walked across dry land. I said …
Pharaoh, Pharaoh
oooh baby,
let
my people go
Ooh-ah, ya ya ya ya
I said,
Pharaoh, Pharaoh,
oooh
baby,
let my people go
(Ooh-ah, ya ya ya ya)
Well-a Pharaoh's army is a
comin' too
So what do you think that I did do
I raised my rod and cleared my throat
And all of Pharaoh's army did the dead man's float. I said, (plug
nose and pretend to fall)
Pharaoh, Pharaoh
oooh baby,
let
my people go
Ooh-ah, ya ya ya ya
I said,
Pharaoh, Pharaoh,
oooh
baby,
let my people go
(Ooh-ah, ya ya ya ya)
