[Son House]
Tell me who's that writin', John the Revelator
Tell me who's that writin', John the Revelator
Tell me who's that writin', John the Revelator wrote the book of the seven seals

Who's that writin', John the Revelator
Tell me who's that writin', John the Revelator
Who's that writin', John the Revelator wrote the book of the seven seals

God walked down in the cool of the day
Called Adam by his name
But he refused to answer
Because he's naked and ashamed

Who's that writin', John the Revelator
Tell me who's that writin', John the Revelator
Who's that writin', John the Revelator wrote the book of the seven seals

You know Christ had 12 apostles, but three he laid away
He said "Watch with me one hour, till I go yonder and pray"

Tell me who's that writin', John the Revelator
Who's that writin', John the Revelator
Tell me who's that writin', John the Revelator wrote the book of the seven seals

Mary Margaret they were there, and they heard every word he said
And they know the banners, that he'll rise from the dead
Tell me who's that writin', John the Revelator
Who's that writin', John the Revelator
Tell me who's that writin', John the Revelator wrsote the book of the seven seals

Who's that writin', John the Revelator
Who's that writin', John the Revelator
Well who's that writin', John the Revelator wrote the book of the seven seal
