Who Led  The Slaves Out?  
To the Tune of "Who Let  the Dogs Out?"  by the Baja Men
Words by Rabbi Joe Black  C November, 2000  LANITUNES music

G                                D7                                   G
Well Egypt was hot, Egypt was smokin... (Dai dai-ya-nu)
G                                             D7
The Israelites were laboring hard
G                                                    D7
Pharoah was tough - man I'm not jokin'
G                                                         D7
Said "Build me pyramids in my back yard"

When Moses saw the bush that was burnin'
God told him what he had to do.  
Said:  "Tell Pharoah-man the tide it is turnin'.'"
"Tell him to to Let  my people go"

And Pharoah shouted:
D7                                           G
Who Led  the Slaves out?  (Moses, Moe Moe Moses)

BRIDGE 1: (twice)
    G                                    D7
A Pharoah's nothing if he don't got no Slaves.
D7                                           
(Poor Pharoah's got no Slaves )-2x                   

Pharoah Laughed when Moses demanded
To let his people go again..
Said Moses: "do what God commanded
Or be prepared  to count to Ten."

And Pharoah shouted:
Who Led  the Slaves out?

BRIDGE 2:
        C
Blood and frogs
       G
and lice and flies and plague 
D
boils and  hail and locusts, darkness, 
                                             G
Then the slaying of the first born..


After the plagues things moved in a hurry
The rest is all just history
No time to bake any bread for the journey
They had to make do with Matzah and tea.

BRIDGE 1: (twice)
    G                                    D7
A Pharoah's nothing if he don't got no Slaves.
D7                                           
(Poor Pharoah's got no Slaves )-2x                   


And Pharoah shouted:
Who Led  the Slaves out?
