Lyrics

MOLOKAI MAN by Scott Detweiler

When the parents in my neighborhood
Learned of my disease
They scared the schoolyard children
From playing ball with me
I was sent to a place called Molokai
As a boy of nine years old
A colony of lepers
Raised me as their own

Each day we’d pray
We’d pray for a cure
We’d pray amen alleluia amen alleluia amen

Molokai Man, Molokai Man, Molokai Man, Molokai Man
Molokai Man
I’m a Molokai Man

After ten long years I stowed away
On a ship to Frisco Bay
Then a salty crewman found me
And then my dreams began to fade
I was sent to a hard cold hospital
By the doctors and police
Yeah they said they couldn’t have a man like me
Runnin through their sterile streets

Pray, each day I’d pray
Cure, I’d pray for a cure
I’d pray amen alleluia amen alleluia amen

Molokai Man, Molokai Man, Molokai Man, Molokai Man
Molokai Man
I’m a Molokai Man

Well I haven’t been to Molokai
In twenty years or more
You know I don’t know if I’d know the place
If it walked right through my door
But should you ever be in Frisco
Well, baby I’m not hard to find
Cause there’s a sign outside my guarded door that says
“Molokai Man Inside”

Pray, each day I pray
Cure, oh, I’m still prayin for a cure
I’m prayin amen alleluia amen alleluia amen

I’m prayin amen alleluia amen alleluia amen alleluia amen
I’ll pray it again alleluia amen alleluia amen
Alleluia amen

Molokai Man, Molokai Man, Molokai Man, Molokai Man
Molokai Man
I’m a Molokai Man
