"Somebody Say Amen" lyrics

Somebody Say Amen

There's a
A soft wind blowing
Through the sugar cane
And the pink fruit juice is melting
On a beach down sandy lane

And the Sunday school dresses sway
In sun-bleached harmony
Where the waves of green
Meet the waves of blue
And the preacher sets you free

It seems in prayers and money
You look for five to get you ten
Somebody say
Amen
Won't somebody say?

I see the people without the money
Being peaceful with the Lord
Yeah, the church seems full of happiness
But the jet set's looking bored

They getting high without a penny here
They're finding peace without a dime
But the rain turns cold on city streets
And the smiles are hard to find

Oh, the pain of only wanting
For your five to get you ten
Somebody say
Amen
Won't somebody say
Amen?
Well

Won't somebody say?
Somebody say

Somebody say
Oh, somebody say

Oh, the pain of only wanting
For your five to get you ten
Somebody say
Amen
Won't somebody say?
Somebody say
Somebody say
Won't somebody say?
Yeah, somebody say

Oh, yeah
Somebody
Somebody say
Oh, somebody say
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Somebody say

Somebody say
Somebody say
Somebody say
Amen
