Afghan Whigs, The - Congregation Lyrics






Yea
I walk around with this all over me
I cannot wash it clean
You've got the ball
You've got the ball I'm takin' it from you

And today
It's in the blood
I left it in the blood you see
So put the words together
I'll be with you forever

Get up, we'll rise, they'll pay, get up
We'll rise and wait until tomorrow night
I can't wait recall yet if I'm black
Or if I'm white or wrong, oh
Or if I'm white or wrong

I am your creator
Come with me my congregation
Get up, I'll smack your back down
Get up, we'll rise, they'll pay

Get up, I'll smack your back down
You will become my diamond
I'm yours and you are mine

Get up, we'll rise
And wait until tomorrow night
I can't wait recall yet if I'm black
Or if I'm white or wrong
Or if I'm white or wrong

Get up, we'll rise, they'll pay
Get up, we'll rise, they'll pay
Get up, we'll rise

Afghan Whigs, The Congregation Comments
  1. C.... G....

    Still in heavy rotation in my world, guess heartache and addiction are also

    C.... G....

    Stay strong, brother

    C.... G....

    lmao get rekt

  2. P.... P....

    27 years today ;)

    P.... P....

    Ó a mina do Ministry...

  3. I.... R....

    I'm a huge JCS fan and I was just mindlessly doing schoolwork and I was like "what the heck?" when they started playing The Temple.

  4. G.... P....

    very proud that greg is greek

    G.... P....

    Is he? I didn't know that -- and I've been following his work for 20+ years.

  5. S.... M....

    most underrated band of the 90's for sure

    S.... M....

    This album is quite brilliant as I myself will agree with my self

  6. J.... P....

    The name intrigued me so I gave it a listen. Great garage pop sound but better than that, the songs have cool construction and arrangement. Metal with a groove. Strange I never heard of them.

  7. A.... P....

    Saw my eighth Whigs concert tonight in Detroit. Sounded great, but it sucks to be a "long time fan" having to listen to new stuff. I had the same opinion of the U2 concert a few weeks ago.

    A.... P....

    Agreed on U2. Not on the Whigs though. they just don't like to repeat themselves. Their newer stuff, if you give it a try, is pretty good.

    A.... P....

    Did they not do much stuff from Congregation, Gentleman, or Black Love? Either way, I am going to see them in May and it will be my first Whigs concert even though I have love them since 93! I am so excited to see them!!

  8. J.... B....

    I understand that understand is Greg dullis favorite word

    J.... B....

    I guess everybody has theirs. Phil Collins has been waiting. Waiting for so long. How many times has Clapton sung "how many times"?

  9. C.... D....

    ...what kind of fucking album cover is this? Kill white babies??

    C.... D....

    Creamcheese Diarrhea:moron, if it was the other way around would you say that too?

  10. J.... H....

    This album was very much a product of its time. Their sound in this phase reminds me of Soul Asylum and Buffalo Tom even if it was more aggressive than those two bands.

    J.... H....

    ... and Dinosaur jr.

  11. c.... ....

    Its here. Gotta make sure. Best song on the album

  12. c.... ....

    Where is Miles is ded? WTF

    c.... ....

    It's at the end...... One of their best songs for sure........

  13. Q.... ....

    Been skimming their albums for an hr now and skipped each one but I am able to settle on this one. Pretty cool. In my 30yrs I cant remember ever talking about them or anyone mentioning them to me so I guess I found them here but who knows. As of right now this album is pretty cool. Listenable at at least.

    Q.... ....

    Same here. discovered them on my own although this record spends a lotta shelf time. Black Love... my go-to darling.

  14. H.... M....

    Great band. They grew a lot. I saw them in '88 and wasn't very impressed. Saw them at the 9:30 club in D.C. with The Fluid in '92. They were impressive.

    H.... M....

    H.I. McDunnough just saw them monday. Spectacular but very loud. Almost too loud for the place I was at.

    H.... M....

    In '88?? Big top hallow, no way!

  15. i.... c....

    Great album I can't stop listening to this

    i.... c....

    It's almost concept in presentation, like one big thought . Fuck me . I sound like a gad danged hipturd .

  16. L.... W....

    every song pummels

  17. B.... P....

    One of my all-time favorites.

    best band

  21. M.... ....

    Awesome album; very one of a kind - progressive experimental indie garage pop-rock?

    M.... ....

    honestly all those adjectives put together just mean "indie rock" but im not hating, im super excited about finding this.

    M.... ....

    Sonia Anich this is better than "indie rock".

    M.... ....

    Wiki also has them labeled as alternative

    M.... ....

    MDC was just trolling ya fukn retards. Remember , next time you read somethingzzzz
