Closer To The People |
| I’m just a poor girl trying to be free |
| Can you follow me |
| I’m just a poor girl trying to be free |
| I’m not made of rags and bone |
| I want my soul and spirit flown |
| And the glory that’s a morning of our own |
| Closer to the people |
| Bring me closer to the people |
| Gotta get |
| To the living |
| Playing with my mind |
| I was hip |
| Like o’day |
| Haunted by a lul-la-bye |
| Closer to the people |
| Bring me closer to the people |
| On the other side |
| When they shout |
| When they holler |
| Don’t leave me in this double night |
| Closer to the people |
| Bring me closer to the people |
| When I look up to heaven |
| And I see the climb |
| Every step |
| I dance brightly |
| La pas ma la of old ragtime |
| Gotta get |
| To the be-bop |
| Closer to the people |
| Bring me closer to the people |
