Paroles de Amen

I sold my soul to a man in a dark Suit who said he believed in my dream I left my home and all that was in it and headed up to Tennessee Three years later I was caught up in it, there was no end in sight I found myself in a concrete cell Praying I'd make it through the night And I'd pray Oh, my mother, take me to the river and wash away all my sins Baptize me in the rushing water, let me begin again Father, won't you hear my cry, save my weary soul I'm tired of runnin', I'm tired of hiding It's time for me to come home And I prayed a amen amen amen And I pray a amen amen amen And I pray Well, I wandered on my own then I hitched a ride home it took me 40 days and 40 nights When I hit mama's porch, I almost broke down cause she never turned off the lights And I cried Oh, my mother, take me to the river and wash away all my sins Baptize me in the rushing water, let me begin again Father, won't you hear my cry, save my weary soul I'm tired of runnin', I'm tired of hiding It's time for me to come home And I prayed a amen amen amen And I pray a amen amen amen And I pray... Yeah oh And I pray A amen amen amen I prayed A amen amen amen
