Lyrics
8498 got away, 8498 escaped
Get the hound dogs ready before it's too late
Get the Chopper ready because it's getting late
He was put in prison for spreading God's word
He must have got an angel to get him out of this place
He must have got a message then he made his escape
We're gonna miss your message of how Jesus raised the dead
We're gonna miss your kindness and the breaking of bread
8498 got away the speakers blast out again
8498 got away, I hope you make it my friend
I hope you make it my friend
