Stealin' In The Name Of The Lord |
Yeahhh… |
(ooh… stealin' in the name, stealin') |
There’s a man on the corner, raisin' a congregation |
Sayin' that he’s the one, brothers and sisters |
That’s gonna bring us all salvation |
Sayin' that he’s the one to make a way |
He’s gonna do it with no hesitation |
I heard him saying: «Step |
(step, step) |
in the line |
Can you spare a dime?» |
I heard him say: «Step |
(step, step) |
right on up |
How you this evenin'? |
Drop a buck» |
People, I tell you what I’ve seen — a parasite is he |
Ain’t much differnce in what he’s doin' |
Good peopl, believe me |
That’s breaking and entering, you know |
That man is stealin' in the name of the Lord |
Sayin' God’s gonna bless ya |
Stealin' in the name of the Lord |
It happens every day |
This man will walk up to ya, and he’ll look ya in the eye |
Huh, he’ll put his hands on your shoulder |
Honey, and he’ll tell you a big fat lie |
He’ll tell you that God’s gonna bless your children |
If you put your faith in me |
Uh-huh, if you pass the tray while the choir’s singin' |
I’ll mirror my God to thee |
