A 50's Elvis style tune. When we are hooked up to Jesus, we bear the fruit of the spirit
My band is a mac computer and a bunch of software. I mostly put together music for others to do. My CD **$3.99 ;-) ** has 22 songs, 11 are full versions, for learning the song and 11 are instruments only, so you can do them yourself if you want to, like karaoke.
Story behind the song
I don't know! It just came to me!
Lyrics
HOOKED UP TO THE TRUNK (John 15: 5, Galatians 5: 22-23)
Uh, well, uh One day I was just a walkin around
I spied a branch laying on the ground.
Branch had fallen from an apple tree
Uh so I said to myself, "uh well it seems to me,
Branch on the ground doesnft do much good.
The only thing its useful for is fire wood.
Ya might even go just so far as to say,
Your never gonna get a lot of apples that way.h
chorus
Ya gotta be hooked up to the trunk, now,
If you donft want the growinf to stop.
Ya gotta be hooked up to the trunk, now,
If youfre gonna grow an apple crop.
Uh well uh one day I was feelinf powerful blue.
I asked my Lord, gNow tell me what should I do?h
He said, "Listen carefully to what I say.
Ya got to take some time to read the Bible each day.
Now therefs a one more thing so would you listen, please?
Ya gotta spend some down time prayinf on your knees.
I know this will help you out because, of course,
It plugs you into me. Yea, Ifm the power source." (chorus)
Now if ya do these things, uh well uh what do you know?
The fruit of the spirit will begin to grow
Love, joy, patience, kindness, goodness and peace.
These and lots of other fruit will all increase, I said,
Faithfulness and gentleness and self- control
All of these will blossom in your heart and soul
Because you have his awesome power for leaninf upon,
But itfs only gonna happen when you get logged on. (chorus)
