SOMEBODY HAD TO DO IT (Blues for Judas)
copyright 2008 panama red
somebody had to do it
somebody had to be the one
somebody had to do it
somebody had to get it done
somebody had to do it
for the kingdom to come
somebody had to do it
somebody had to follow his will
somebody had to do it
somebody had to put him on that hill
somebody had to do it
for the prophecy to be fulfilled
so God bless peter God bless paul
But God bless Judas for takin' that fall
because somebody somebody had to do it
somebody had to do it
wasn't gonna be none a them
guys from gallilee
somebody had to do it
wasn't gonna be none of them
guys from gallilee
somebody had to do it
i guess it had to be me
he said one of you will betray me
and he looked me right in the eye
i said i don't wanna be the one lord
that causes you to die
An he said now judas
you know these fishermen'll never get through it
and somebody somebody's gotta do it
here take this money they said
do you know where he is?
thirty pieces of silver right in your hands
you can betray him with just a kiss
so i said he's down in the grove there
with those gallilee friends of his
and after it was over and they'd killed him
i went back up to the temple and i took every cent
flung it at their feet with not a penny spent
i said you've killed the Musician
i was just his instrument
so god bless peter god bless paul
but god bless judas for takin that fall
because somebody somebody had to do it
