They Went Back in Time & Killed Robert Johnson Songtext
von Sananda Maitreya

They Went Back In Time
They Went Back In Time
They Went Back

No More Cat & the Fiddle
No More Piggy in the Middle
But a Fable & a Riddle

They Went Back In Time & Killed Robert Johnson
And they Blamed it all on Stagger Lee
And put the Burden on his family tree
They Went Back In Time & Killed Robert Johnson
And wiped away his history
While the Killers collected their fee
From the Black Market Death Lottery

No More Eggs & Francis Bacon
No More Chances to be taken
And What if they were Faking?


They Went Back In Time & Killed Robert Johnson
And they Blamed it all on Stagger Lee
And put the Burden on his family tree
They Went Back In Time & Killed Robert Johnson
And they Stole John Henry′s seed
While the Killers collected their fee
From the Black Market Death Lottery

No More Blues or Paul Bunyan
And ol' Hank Williams′ Engine Running
With both Blazes Gunning

They Went Back In Time & Killed Robert Johnson
And Then They changed all the Scenery
And let the Finger Point at Stagger Lee
They Rocked the Pockets when they Killed Robert Johnson
He saw Chuck Berry once in a dream
While the Killers collected their fee
From the Black Market Death Lottery
