Louis Armstrong - Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego

Louis Armstrong, 1952
There was three children from the land of Israel
. . Shadrach, Meshach, Abednego
Took a trip to the land of Babylon
. . Shadrach, Meshach, Abednego
Nebuchadnezzar was the king of Babylon
. . Shadrach, Meshach, Abednego
He took a lot of gold and made an idol
. . Shadrach, Meshach, Abednego
And he told everybody when you hear the music of the trumpet
And he told everybody when you hear the music of the flute
And he told everybody when you hear the music of the horn
You must fall down and worship the idol
. . Shadrach, Meshach, Abednego
But the children of Israel would not bow down
. . Shadrach, Meshach, Abednego
So the king put the children in a fiery furnace
He heaped on coal and red-hot brimestone
Seven times hotter, hotter than it oughta be
. . Shadrach, Meshach, Abednego
Well they couldn't even burn a hair on the head of Shadrach
Laughing and talking while the fire is jumping around
Old Nebuchadnezzar called "Hey there!" when he saw the power of the Lord
And they had a big time in the house of Babylon
. . Shadrach, Meshach, Abednego
