Bang A Drum |
| I went to see the preacher to teach me how to pray |
| He looked at me and smiled |
| Then that preacher turned away |
| He said if you want to tell him something |
| You ain’t gotta fold your hands |
| Say it with your heart, your soul and believe it |
| And I’d say amen |
| Bang a drum for the sinners |
| Bang a drum for the sins |
| Bang a drum for the losers |
| And those who win |
| Bang a drum, bang it loudly |
| Or as soft as you need |
| Bang a drum for yourself son |
| And a drum for me |
| Ooh, let me hear you say yeah (yeah), hallelujah, amen |
| I called upon my brother just the other day |
| He said: John I’m gonna die if I don’t start to live again |
| I work each day and night like clockwork |
| Just trying to make ends meet |
| I could kick this bad world’s ass |
| If I could just get on my feet |
| I’d bang a drum for the dying |
| Bang a drum for the truth |
| Bang a drum for the innocence lost in our youth |
| Bang a drum, bang it loudly |
| Or as soft as you need |
| Bang a drum for you brother |
| And a drum for me |
| I don’t know where all the rivers run |
| I don’t know how far, I don’t know how come |
| Well I’m gonna die believin' each step that I take |
| Ain’t worth the ground that I walk on |
| If we don’t walk it our way |
| (ooh…) |
| No I don’t claim to be a wiseman, a poet or a saint |
| I’m just another man who’s searching for a better way |
| But my heart beats loud as thunder |
| For the things that I believe |
| Sometimes I wanna run for cover |
| Sometimes I want to scream |
| Bang a drum for tomorrow |
| Bang a drum for the past |
| Bang a drum for the heroes that won’t come back |
| Bang a drum for the promise |
| Bang a drum for the lies |
| Bang a drum for the lovers and the tears they’ve cried |
| Bang a drum, bang it loudly |
| Or as soft as you need |
| But as long as my heart keeps on bangin' |
| I got a reason to believe (I got a reason to believe) |
| (Yeah, yeah, oh yeah, yeah, hallelujah, amen) |
| Let me hear you say yeah (yeah) yeah (yeah) oh yeah |
| Let me hear you say yeah (yeah) hallelujah, amen |
| Come on now (yeah) yeah (yeah) oh yeah |
| Let me hear you say yeah (yeah) hallelujah, amen |
| All right girls (yeah) brother (yeah) yeah (yeah) oh yeah |
| Let me hear you say yeah (yeah) hallelujah, amen |
