Lyrics:
name
I used to sing spirituals and I thought that this
Was the thing that I wanted to do
But somehow or other When I went in the army I picked up
fact all the people with soul in this
A little Mahalia Jackson in there
One more Lucille, take it easy now
You know, I've met a lot of you months
Sammy, a little
Ray Charles, in fact all the people with soul in
This.
A little Mahalia Jackson in there.
One more, Lucille!
Take it easy now.
Last night I dreamed I was at a concert
So many people, you had to stand in line
One night only in Soul Heaven
I didn't wanna wake up
I was
to the Lord
I mean you know it's a war, you know it's a war
Every time I hit the floor break, you know it's your boy
You know it's a joy, when I wake up and I
to the Lord
I mean you know it's a war, you know it's a war
Every time I hit the floor break, you know it's your boy
You know it's a joy, when I wake up and I
spoke
And the gospel music
The voice of Mahalia Jackson came through the ether
Oh my common one with the coat so old
And the light in the head
Said,
Tuesday morning, 8:15
I was riding to work on the
Jackson Park Express
Seemed like any other day
Then my whole world changed
In a way I never could
Tuesday morning, 8:15
I was riding to work on the
Jackson Park Express
Seemed like any other day
Then my whole world changed
In a way I never
hold this j and I smoke it by my lonesome early in the morning
Early in the morning
Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up
Early in the morning
Wake up
hold this j and I smoke it by my lonesome early in the morning
Early in the morning
Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up
Early in the morning
Wake up
gonna be that way
Little girl you've been down here so long
I can tell by the way that you move you belong to
The Jackson Cage
Down in Jackson Cage
don't get fed up
My people rise, my people fight
My people do alright
My people walk with pride and
We're marchin' side by side and
My people laugh,
She in love with the shine
For the glory
For the glory
For the glory
For the glory
Moral of the story
I did it for the glory
When you see little shorty
You’re the light on a dark day
You’re the drive when I’m parked (Yeh)
You’re the truth
You’re in me
Glory to be you
Glory to be used by you
Glory
ever give up
Give up, give up
They want you to give out
Give out
Glory to the World's people
The ones we lose and love
Before we lead we must believe
in
Wake up and cook up
Wake up and cook up
Wake up and cook up
Gotta put my fist in that bowl
Them niggas is so small, we call 'em tadpoles
You wake up
Wake up and cook up
Wake up and cook up
Wake up and cook up
Gotta put my fist in that bowl
Them niggas is so small, we call 'em tadpoles
You wake up
the light when the dark touch you
All this weight on my shoulder, I gotta flex the muscle
In the driver seat of life and I'll still never buckle
Straight up
seconds left in the game
The Dream team led by one
They knew if they could freeze the ball
The Jacksons would be done
Just then the four young Jackson boys
Talking money over salmon in Italian and Australian
Fuck it even have some salad, I'm just valuin' the value
Wake up and smell the azeleas
Sang her
Remember what I done seen
Mahalia Jackson told me
To Tell em about the dream
Does that make me Martin
Shout out my uncle garvin
They done got me started
I
the utmost respect when I fall through
All you, do is defend that lady when I call you, yeah
I'm sorry Ms. Jackson (oh), I am for real
Never meant to make
the utmost respect when I fall through
All you, do is defend that lady when I call you, yeah
I'm sorry Ms. Jackson (oh), I am for real
Never meant to make
