Thelma Houston - Save The Country lyrics

rate me

Come on, people! Come on, children! <br />

Come on down to the glory river.<br />

Gonna wash you up, and wash you down, <br />

Gonna lay the devil down, gonna lay that devil down.<br />

I got fury in my soul, fury's gonna take me to the glory goal.<br />

In my mind I can't study war no more.<br />

Save the people! Save the children! Save the country now! <br />

Come on, people! come on, children! <br />

Come on down to the glory river.<br />

Gonna wash you up and wash you down.<br />

Gonna lay the devil down, gonna lay that devil down.<br />

Come on people! Sons and mothers! <br />

Keep the dream of the two young brothers.<br />

Gonna take that dream and ride that dove.<br />

We could build the dream with love, I know, <br />

We could build the dream with love, I know, <br />

We could build a dream with love, children, <br />

We could build the dream with love, oh people, <br />

We could build the dream with love, I know, <br />

We could build the dream with love.<br />

<br />

Come on, people! Come on, children! <br />

There's a king at the glory river.<br />

And the precious king, he loved the people to sing; <br />

Babes in the blinkin' sun sang<br />

We Shall Overcome.
