Lyrics

Contributed by Zippy, Pike’s Peak H4

When you are broke and your religion’s a joke,you can always go to - Jonestown! When life’s incomplete there’s only one man to meet, so won’t you come and see - Jim Jones! Watch him as he stirs the vat of Koolaid that’s so lethal, Listen to the anguished crys of all his dying people - no one survives! The Rev’s a most gracious host, so let’s lift up our glass to the ultimate toast, we’re at - Jonestown! Drink up with Reverend Jim - Jonestown! - the chances are mighty slim

Jonestown! - the people are dropping like flies. Jonestown - Jonestown - Jonestown - Jonestown…

There was Congressman Ryan on his mission of spying but he would not drink with - Jim Jones! For such a disgrace they had to blow off his face, now tell me who’s to blame - Jim Jones! But it forced the Rev to put his final plan in action, He drank the brew and when it’s through he saw with satisfaction - everyone died! The deaths were both painful and slow, but to live or die, it’s a great way to go, we’re at - Jonestown! Drink up with Reverend Jim - Jonestown! - the chances are mighty slim

Jonestown! - the people are dropping like flies. Jonestown - Jonestown - Jonestown - Jonestown …
