Ooooo Heyyyyoh-yeeahhhh Heyyy Yeahhh Mmm There's a road ahead with a fork at the end Two paths one dark one light The paths to wrong and right, yeahh... Now while we're living this life We're all gonna walk along that road sometime yeah, at least one time...yeahhh... Let me tell you about my papa Was a good man yes he was But he had one little problem He liked that booze a little too much, yeah Though he never let it stop him From doing all he had to do He fought and overcame that demon, A fight he couldn't afford to lose, whoaa... I will always remember what was going on in those dayswhen my Grandmama would sit Him down I could still hear her say yeah... You've got to change your mind If you want to build and grow If you want to make a better life... You got to wise up and watch the seeds you sow Then let everybody know That you're walking on the Nineveh Road (Whoaaaa) That you're walking on the Nineveh Road Yeahh... Let me tell you about my cousin, Hang with the bad boys yes he did... Then he got himself in trouble had to do a 10-year bid, For something somebody else did - lemme tell ya While doing that time he read some books About the Deeds of Mighty Men It gave him strength through all them tough times in Until the day he left the pen...(Oyoyoyoyoyoy) I can only imagine what was on his mind on the day He was waiting for that cab ride home, In his heart I could hear him say...(Whoaaaa) You've got to change your mind If you want to build and grow If you want to make a better life... You got to wise up and watch the seeds you sow Then let everybody know That you're walking on the Nineveh Road The Road, The Roaad... That you're walking on the Nineveh Road Ohhhh Yeahh... Gotta grow on the inside So life gets better on the outside Each one of us bears his or her own load (I know it's tough..) But that's what it is to walk on the road... One day the Lord told a city To change their ways or die He filled with their hearts so full of pity That they tore their clothes and cried... Please - please Lord forgive us We vow to change our evil ways And with the sack cloth and the ashes They bowed down to God and prayed (Oyoyoyoyoyoy) I can only imagine what was going on in those days With one mind and one voice together I could hear each of 'em say (Wellll) You've got to change your mind If you want to build and grow If you want to make a better life... You got to wise up and watch the seeds you sow Then let everybody know That you're walking on the Nineveh Road (Whooaaaaa) That you're walking on the Nineveh Road On the Road, that you're walk-you're walking on the Road That you're walking on the Nineveh Road Heyye yeahhhhh, yeah yeah yeah ye-ye-yeah Yeah- you're walking on the Road (...on the Nineveh...)
