The Ballad of Mo Amronson (to the tune of The Ballad of Jed Clampett)

Come and listen to a story ‘bout a man named Mo,

His people they were slaves to the evil Pharaoh,

Until one day he was lookin’ at a bush,

And he heard the voice of God, though he wasn’t a lush- -

The LORD, that is, I AM, The Big G.

Next thing you know, Mo’s talkin’ to Pharaoh,

Mo says, “God said you gotta let my people go!”

But the king says, “No, they always will be slave to me!”

So God sent down ten big plagues on Pharaoh’s whole country - -

Blood ‘n frogs thatis, Pestilence, Special effecs.

When the first borns died, Pharaoh sent the Jews away,

They ran and ate some matzah on that very happy day,

So now we have our Seder to commemorate that feat,

We drink some wine and talk a lot, we sing and also eat! - -

Matzah that is, Maror too, And good food.

Y’all come back now, y’hear!
