The Gospel Of No Name City Composer(s): Alan Jay Lerner - André Previn Performer(s): Alan Dexter
You wanna see sin of the wickedest kind? Here it is! You wanna see virtue left behind? Here it is! Sodom was vice And visa-versa You wanna say where the vice is worser? Here it is! I mean, here it is!
You wanna live life in the rottenest city? Here it is! Women and whiskey, night and day? Here it is! You wanna embrace the golden calf? Ankle, and thigh, and upper half? Here it is! I mean, here it is!
No name city No name city The Lord don't like it here
No name city No name city Your reckoning day is near
No name city No name city Here's what he's gonna do
God love this town And swallow it down And goodbye to you
Will you go to heaven? Will you go to hell? Either repent, or fare thee well
God will take care of no name city Comes the end, and it won't be pretty Here it is! I mean, here it is!
Here it is! I mean, here it is!
Here it is! I mean, here it is! Amen!
