Let me save thee, save thee from the den of iniquity

Let me save thee; we're repeating Roman hist'ry

Our mysteries on pencil & paper to touch a way of livin'

It's not in the bag, honey, I'll bunch & sag; the Romans did it

But I'll give you moonlight, old-fashioned moonlight

Like initials on a tree, saying that you love me



CHORUS:

Back to the days of the Romans, baby, that's where we're goin'

(That's where we're goin') that's where we're goin'

Sing hallelujah, sing hallelujah



Let me save thee from walkin' the path of least resistance

Let me save thee, baby don't laugh with the Devil's existence

Those were fine, they were havin' some time

When Caesar lost his handle

I prayed for all, they were havin' a ball

On women & scare 'em

But I'll give you moonlight, old-fashioned moonlight

Like initials on a tree, saying that you love me



(chorus)



Moonlight, old-fashioned moonlight

Moonlight, old-fashioned moonlight



(chorus x2)



(repeat & fade):

Sing hallelujah
