Just tryin' to make ends meet
Ain't worth the ground
For the things that I believe
Yeah halleluiah, Amen
Yeah
Let me here you say
He looked at me and smiled
Then that preacher turned away
Or as soft as you need
I called upon my brother
As long as my heart keeps on bangin'
And those who win
Yeah, yeah, oh yeah
Bang a drum' bang it loudly
And a drum for me
Say it with your heart
Bang a drum for tomorrow
I work each day and night like clockwork
You ain't gotta fold your hands
Lost in our youth
If we don't walk it our own way
I got a reason to believe
Sometimes I want to scream
Your soul and believe it" and I'd say, "Amen"
Let me here you say
Bang a drum for the heroes
Alright girls, brothers
I'm just another man who's searchin'
He said, "John I'm gonna
Bang a drum for the innocence
That won't come back
Let me here you say
Bang a drum for the promise
Or as soft as you need
Bang a drum for you brother
Yeah halleluiah, Amen
That I walk on
C'mon now, yeah
And a drum for me
Bang a drum for yourself son
Each step that I take
Yeah halleluiah, Amen
Let me here you say
Die if I don't start to live again"
Ooh let me here you say
For a better way
Bang a drum for the truth
Or as soft as you need
Sometimes I wanna run for cover
No I don't claim to be a wise man
And the tears they've cried
I could kick this bad world's ass
Bang a drum for the lovers
He said, "If you want to tell him somethin'
Oh yeah
I don't know where all the rivers run
I don't know, how come
But my heart beats loud as thunder
Bang a drum, bang it loudly
A poet or a saint
I'd bang a drum for the dyin'
Bang a drum for the losers
Bang a drum for the sinners
I don't know, how far
Bang a drum, bang it loudly
Bang a drum for the sins
Well I'm gonna die believin'
Just the other day
Bang a drum for the past
If I could just get on my feet
Bang a drum for the lies
