Lyrics for Song: On the Way Lord
Lyrics for Album: She'll Be Hanging 'Round Somewhere [Kapp] [1970]
(Juanita Southern)
(Lord, they're on their way, on their way.)
Saw a man, an angry man
Killed his brother with his own hands
Brother laid on the ground
Sinner man, you'd better kneel down.
He's on his way Lord, on his way
On his way Lord, on his way
He's on his way Lord, on his way
Oh, oh Lord, he's on his way (on his way.)
So a girl, a pretty girl
Disgusted with her mixed up world
And over those tranquillities
Forever ends reality.
She's on her way Lord, on her way
On her way Lord, on her way
SHe's on her way Lord, on her way
Oh, oh Lord, she's on her way (on her way.)
Two young boys, black and white
Each one thinks his world is right
Fighting for color of skin
They'll never know which one will win.
They're on their way Lord, on their way
On their way Lord, on their way
They're on their way Lord, on their way
Oh, oh Lord, they're on their way (on their way.)
(Lord they're on their way, on their way...)
