Ain't That a Miracle
Parody of "Pink Houses" by John Cougar Mellencamp
(John 9)
Well, there's a blind man - just a sad sack
Livin' in a blindness since birth
He's gonna demonstrate something to us from God
You know, 'cause Jesus just brought him the cure
He made some ointment with His spittle
Said "Clean it up" and He went off
And he looked up after he had bathed, shoutin'
"I can see everythin' real good - because of God"
Ah, but ain't that a miracle? Yes, indeed
Ain't that a miracle? Now he can see, baby!
Ain't that a miracle? Totally free, yeah!
Little things happen when you believe
Oh, yeah, when you believe!
Now when the young man met the teachers
They said "This is an impossible occasion
He's not the creepy man that was recently blind"
They said, "No, he must be some imitation!"
But he told them, "Yeah, I'm the one, sirs
The same boy who couldn't see till presently"
But just like everything else those old Pharisees
Just tried to explain it away
CHORUS (Oh, yes, they do for faithful folks like you and me)
Well, yes, Jesus can cure people
Some still say no, no, no
God'll work into some guy's life
And they chase you down if you call it a miracle - ooh yeah!
And they witness and excuse it
And say it's no big deal
But the simple man, baby, knows He still can heal
If it's God's will
CHORUS
John 9:30
The man answered, "Now that is remarkable! You
don't know where he comes from, yet he opened
my eyes."
