Oooh Lord

I knew from the very beginning, what you had in mind,
But I said to myself baby, you’re gonna just be wastin' your time.
But somehow during the night, things got out of hand,
Before I knew it baby, I was giving my love away again.

You know, I slipped, tripped, fell in love, when you slipped your love on me. Mmm mmmm

Some folks are born, made to wave the flag
Ooh, they're red, white and blue
And when the band plays, ""Hail To The Chief""
Ooh, they point the cannon at you, Lord

It ain't me, it ain't me
I ain't no senator's son, son
It ain't me, it ain't me

The harder the words, the colder the night
The closer the hand, the sharper the knife
The longer you hold out
The further you seem to fly
I get cut and I might bleed
But I won’t cry!

The bigger the love, the blacker the birds

Ragged Company Lyrics
by Janiva Magness
Oh lord, I think I’ve fallen, to my disbelieve
I’m cursing like a sailor, I’m lying like a thief
It’s hard to heed the calling, from the bitter side of me
I’m blaming everybody else and no one coming clean
Oh lord, can’t you see, my thick skin wearing thin?
The demons of the lesser me, are backing me in

Met myself a comin' county welfare line
I was feelin' strung out, hung out on the line
Saw myself a goin', down to war in June
All I want, all I want is to write myself a tune

You know I wrote a song for everyone
Wrote a song for truth
Wrote a song for everyone
