Peter Paul and Mary, Jesus Met A Woman

Peter Paul and Mary, Jesus Met A Woman

Lyrics:

Jesus met the woman at the well
Jesus met the woman at the well
Jesus met the woman at the well
And He told her everything she'd ever done
He said, "Woman, woman, where is your husband?"
He said, "Woman, woman, where is your husband?"
He said, "Woman, woman, where is your husband?"
"I know everything you've ever done"
She said, "Jesus, Jesus, I ain't got no husband"
She said, "Jesus, Jesus, I ain't got no husband"
She said, "Jesus, Jesus, ain't got no husband"
"And You don't know everything I've ever done"
He said, "Woman, woman, you've got five husbands"
He said, "Woman, woman, you've got five husbands"
He said, "Woman, woman, you've got five husbands"
"And the one you have now, he's not your own"
She said, "This man, this man, He must be a prophet"
She said, "This man, this man, He must be a prophet"
She said, "This man, this man, He must be a prophet"
"He done told me everything I've ever done"
Jesus met the woman at the well
Jesus met the woman at the well
Jesus met the woman at the well
And He told her everything she'd ever done

You know, I have gotten hundreds of comments in the years, and I can say that vitually all of them have been positive. EVERYONE loves them!

I know I am boring you to death and I have said this before, but I had the pleasure to meet Paul Stookey in a small children's bookstore in Alexandria Virginia and it was a highlight of my life! I Love you !

I'm almost in tears here. PP&M were my favorite group when I was in my late teens and early twenties. I'm from Mary Travers' hometown and I cried when she died. I believe I played every one of their songs when I used to play. I miss them a lot. Thanks for uploading.

@ rnuge01,

That is wonderful that you were from Mary's hometown. I too had tears in my eyes when she died because I grew up listening to her too. They were a staple in my younger years and to this day I still listen to them and never tire of hearing their songs no matter how many times I hear them. They were from a time long gone; a time of love and gentleness. Their spirit of love and purity is badly needed these days. ~~~ Chuck Schoon

@rnuge01 I'm WAY past "almost in tears." When we were in college in the 60's, most of my college cronies and I played the guitar and sang -- we were all broke; all made our OWN entertainment, and it was like living in a musical. If even two of us were together, we were singing about SOMETHING. PP&M, along with The Kingston Trio, gave us a huge portion of our "repertoire." This uploader has a HUGE portion of my gratitude.

@sonyahannah

I also listened to and still listen to the Kingston Trio and of course PP&M. I am glad that this video has brought back good memories for you. I miss those days.

PP&M could kick butt when they wanted to. This is a powerful song, well-delivered. Thanks for posting it!!

[cschoon1213]

@ ashaw953,

Glad you like it! So do I.

[zisi48]

[amerikanprincess]

@ashaw953 Agreed!

[Rerem113]

I usually don't think of them as singing soul, but they do a dang good job of it.

[Budgieboy2010]

Fantastic Song...what a blessing

I haven't been able to listen to PP&M since Mary passed away - until now. I miss her so much - I've been a fan of PP&M since I was around 9 years old and I'm now 58 - Love you dear Mary

thanks for uploading. it´s amazing: two or three microphones, two guitars, one bass and the three voices, and thats all to make unique devine music.
