Preacherman, go tell me.
Preacherman, go tell me
Where his body lies.
Sitting down by the river now, child,
Left him there to die.
One by one we tumble,
One by one we fall,
If I had a solution now, honey,
I would fix us all.
'Cause I believe in a world,
Where we all belong,
And I'm so tired of seeing
Every good man gone.
Take me to that river,
Lay me by his side,
Let the water wash me clean now, honey,
Man, don't stole my pride.
I have seen the darkness,
Lord knows, I've seen the light,
Don't recall the Lord,
Saying there's a difference
If you're black or white.
'Cause I believe in a world,
Where we all belong,
And I'm so tired of seeing
Every good man gone.
