Jason Michael Carroll - Can I Get an Amen lyrics

rate me

Written by Jason Michael Carroll, Rivers Rutherford and George Teren

I believe in a helping hand

But I think a man ought to stand up for himself

If prayer's what Sunday morning's for, I love the Lord

But I do raise a little hell... I will

And I'm prepared to sacrifice for what is right

But I'm not quite convinced... not yet

That the men we sent to represent in the government

Even know what the right thing is

Listen to this

Chorus

Can I get an amen

A shout-out from my rowdy redneck friends

I'll say it again

Am I getting through, am I making sense

Are we all on the same side of the fence

Now's the time to get your two cents in

Can I get an amen

I believe in equal pay,

If the job's the same, why pay somebody less

It don't make sense

And I believe in woman's rights,

But I ain't gonna lie, I do like a short tight dress, oh yes

Chorus

I believe in loud guitars, smoky bars and muscle cars

Pick-up trucks and gun control, as long as they leave mine alone

Mother Freedom, Father Time, looking people in the eye

And who you are means more that where you've been

Chorus
