Hmm |

Hey hey hey ah Lord I just gotta find a way |
| [00:24.88] |
|
| [00:27.25] |
Old master had a leper for a child |
| [00:29.56] |
Left him out to fend for his self in the wild |
| [00:32.32] |
They laughed at him anytime he went to town |
| [00:34.69] |
So he kept to his self and he seldom came around |
| [00:37.75] |
Loved life and he loved his kin |
| [00:40.00] |
But he couldn't understand why they ain't love him |
| [00:42.49] |
|
| [00:43.05] |
Slept out in the shed all alone |
| [00:45.41] |
And all he ever wanted was some friends of his own |
| [00:48.40] |
A few hands saved him took him in and raised him |
| [00:51.02] |
Taught him about love and struggle and patience |
| [00:53.71] |
Gave him the family comfort he was cravin |
| [00:56.33] |
He worked when they work and he sang when they sang |
| [00:59.63] |
He sang so clear and so loud |
| [01:01.69] |
That the masters of the children could hear him from the house |
| [01:04.50] |
They recognize his voice and ran out |
| [01:06.99] |
Everybody wanna know what the ruckus all about y'all |
| [01:10.22] |
Preach on Mr Preacher Man they say |
| [01:12.84] |

| [01:34.92] |
Hey hey hey ah Lord I just gotta find a way |
| [01:40.16] |
|
| [01:42.34] |
See good Lord I've been waitin so long |
| [01:44.97] |
For y'all to come out here and take me in the home |
| [01:47.46] |
The world's so cold with no place to belong |
| [01:49.78] |
They said "come on in boy sing your song" |
| [01:52.33] |
He stepped inside and to his surprise |
| [01:55.39] |
It was so damn fly he can't believe his eyes |
| [01:58.20] |
Ate and he drank and he felt satisfied |
| [02:00.58] |
'Til he sat by the window and he glanced out-side |
| [02:04.02] |
|
| [02:04.70] |
Loved ones out working |
| [02:06.60] |
Eyes got full and his heart start hurting |
| [02:09.47] |
'Cause them folk been singing for years |
| [02:11.66] |
But ain't any one of them set foot up in here |
| [02:14.59] |
Hold up how you get so much |
| [02:17.15] |
Livin off folk like us that got it so rough |
| [02:20.14] |
The way you hold 'em in your cold clutch |
| [02:22.83] |
Makes me think that you don't love your own soul enough |
| [02:25.70] |
Preach on Mr Preacher Man they say |
| [02:28.38] |

| [02:51.28] |
Hey hey hey ah Lord I just gotta find a way |
| [02:55.71] |
|
| [02:57.77] |
Closed his eyes as he sang every note |
| [03:00.27] |
The songs he was taught and the ones that he wrote |
| [03:03.14] |
Stood up cleared his throat grabbed his coat |
| [03:05.70] |
In those last moments a few words were spoke |
| [03:08.50] |
"I used to peak at this old house in awe |
| [03:11.43] |
Imagining what it must be like and all |
| [03:13.81] |
And this the finest spread these eyes ever saw |
| [03:16.48] |
But I don't mind saying I feel sorry for y'all |
| [03:19.44] |
All that getting so little giving |
| [03:21.93] |
Led a lot of y'all to forget what's missing |
| [03:24.55] |
Built you a big pretty prison to sit in |
| [03:27.42] |
Strut around here convinced that that's living |
| [03:29.73] |
|
| [03:30.60] |
But we gonna keep on singing |
| [03:32.85] |
Keep on soldering keep on building |
| [03:35.41] |
Keep on teaching and keep on listening |
| [03:38.09] |
And keep keeping on 'til the whole thing's different" |
| [03:41.29] |
In the shed the sun start to set |
| [03:43.60] |
Said all his prayers and laid down his head |
| [03:46.14] |
Everything said that he needed to say |
| [03:48.71] |
And one of these mornings we'll wake up to a brand new |
| [03:52.02] |
Preach on Mr Preacher Man they say |
| [03:54.66] |
