Where it's warm and secure

But now it's getting so hard

Are you sorry you're out here in the desert

        Bm                C
Instead of your own back yard?

Well, there's nothing to do but travel

And we sure travel a lot

             Dm                G
'Cause it's hard to keep your feet from moving

          Eb          C
When the sand gets so hot

And in the morning it's manna hotcakes

We snack on manna all day

        Dm                               G
And we sure had a winner last night for dinner

Flaming manna souffle
[Chorus 2]

The ground opened up and had some of us for lunch

Where your friends wait for you

         Dm                    G
You can throw a big party and tell the whole gang

             Eb             C
Of what they said was all true

          Dm                G
And this Moses acts like a big shot

         Bb           C
Who does he think he is?

           Dm                           G
Well it's true that God works lots of miracles

           Bm                 C
But Moses thinks they're all his

Why'd he get so mad about that c-c-cow, that golden calf?

 Fm           F     Bb
Moses seems rather idle

 G                                  C
He just sits around, he just sits around and writes the Bible!
[Outro]
Dm    G   Bb                C
Oh, Moses, put down your pen

 Dm       G          Bb  C
What? Oh no, manna again?

Dm G   Bb          C
Oh,  manna waffles

Dm G  Bb          C
     Manna burgers

Dm G  Bb          C
     Manna bagels?

Dm G  Bb             C
     Fillet of manna

Dm G  Bb         C
     Manna patty?
