| Walkin' down by the river
|
| Hangin' down my head
|
| I chanced to stop for a moment
|
| A stranger beckoned and then he said
|
| «Walk down the road of life, a-happy as can be
|
| But not so happy, yeah, that you can’t see
|
| Be very careful, mm-hmm, everywhere you go
|
| Take it very slow»
|
| Hats off to the stranger
|
| For tellin' me what he knows
|
| I said, Lord, I hear ya
|
| And I’m walkin' slow
|
| Just a singin' hallelujah, hallelujah
|
| Let a little sunshine down on me
|
| Make this feelin' grow
|
| Walkin' down by the river
|
| His words warmin' up my soul
|
| He called to me from the other side
|
| There’s one more thing ya gotta know, yeah
|
| Nobody’s perfect, boy, not me or you
|
| It doesn’t matter what you say or do
|
| But you could be singin', yeah, a better tune
|
| Singin' whoa oh
|
| Yeah, all the things that I have said
|
| You’ve probably heard them all before
|
| But the way that you’ll hear them from me
|
| Is like you never heard them before
|
| Hats off to the stranger
|
| For tellin' me what he knows
|
| I said, Lord, I hear ya
|
| And I’m walkin' slow, yeah
|
| Hats off to the stranger
|
| For tellin' me what he knows
|
| I said, Lord, I hear ya
|
| And I’m walkin' slow
|
| Yeah, I said
|
| Hats off to the stranger
|
| For tellin' me what he knows
|
| I said, Lord, I here ya
|
| And I’m walkin' slow
|
| Just a singin' Hallelujah
|
| Oh yeah, hallelujah
|
| Let a little sunshine down on me
|
| Make this feelin' grow
|
| A little louder
|
| Hallelujah, sing it out loud, hallelujah
|
| Let a little sunshine down on me
|
| Make this feelin' grow |
