De first one is de biggest
She make you stand or fall
Serve the Lord alone, don’t have yourself
No other gods at all

Number two is good for you
Don't toss His Name around
If you use it well
dis much is true
You stand on solid ground

Number three will set you free
To keep the Sabbath Day
By the Word and the Sacrament
You will follow in His way

O de 10 Commandments
I can't do dem at all
But de Holy Spirit say:
"Hey, Mon, I help you."
Dis is our holy call.

Now 1, 2 & 3 are vertical
As you can plainly see
But the rest are horizontal
Day got to do wit you and me

Honoring Mom and Dad
And all of dem above us
May be hard to do
But it make you glad
And you don't make dem so nervous

Oh, de 10 commandmants…

Number Five, she say, "Do not Kill"
Don't harm but help you neighbor
Hey, listen up, don't be an imbecile
And oh the blessings you will savor

Number Six, she say very plain
Don't be just like the parrot
Don't say and do what de world tell you to
Hey, Mon
Save it for marriage!

Oh de 10 commandmants…

Number 7 say "Don't take does tings"
And don't cheat nobody neither
But do what you can to help de man
Keep all his stuff together

Commandmant 8 is about de lie
And de slander and de gossip
Like if dat ain't no pure water
flowin' from de spring
Hey Mon
Shut off de faucet!

Number 9 & 10
Day kinda be alike
You ought to have just pure desires
Like if your yearning
for what your neighbor got
You be tangled in de barbed wires
Of sin, don't you know

Oh de 10 commandmants…
