Lyrics I've Been Searching - O.V. Wright

I've Been Searching

I’ve been searching
I’ve been searching
I’ve been searching
I can’t find what I’m looking for
Lord, its shame
Everybody got a game
Lord, its mighty tough
When you don’t know who to trust
For once in my life
I’d like to see
Just a little truth, y’all
Just a little bit of honesty
I can’t find it
Lord, I can’t find it
Lord, oh, my 'gon lie
(I've been searching)
I’ve been searching
(I've been searching)
I’ve been searching
I can’t find what I’m looking for
Lord, what I wouldn’t give
To find somebody real
I don’t mean folks shaking your hand
Pulling you in when they get a chance
I mean somebody
Who’s not afraid
To say what they mean
And mean what they say
I can’t find
I can’t find
Lord, oh, my 'gon lie
(I've been searching)
I’ve been searching
(I've been searching)
I’ve been searching
I can’t find what I’m looking for
Ooh, oh, ooh
Oh, what happened to be exact
Lord, I’ve been searching everywhere
(I've been searching)
I can’t find, no
(I've been searching)
I can’t find, no
(I've been searching)
I’ve been to the east
(I've been searching)
I can’t find
You know the west is gonna miss
(I've been searching)
