Dog Gone Frank Black and the Catholics

[Verse 1]
I could not pray, I felt so doggone
Couldn't get no witness, but I did not know
Then a voice in a whisper said, "you've gotta carry it on"

[Refrain]
And the news is gonna break
The news is gonna break
The news is gonna break that I am here, whoa

[Verse 2]
Out along the way, I got so bogged down
I had some business there, I did not slow
And a boy in the world said you've gotta carry it on

[Refrain]
And the news is gonna break
The news is gonna break
The news is gonna break that I am here, whoa

[Verse 3]
I'm not a messenger, I'm not the passenger
Got some business there, but you did not know
And the point of my visit, well, sir, that's to carry me on

[Refrain]
And the news is gonna break
The news is gonna break
Yeah, your noose is gonna break when I am there, whoa
