Chariot Song
King's X · King's X [1992]
If I could only have one thing,
Give me the loving
(Loving is nothing to doubt)
A shot to the left and I fall down
Cover me
I hear the music again all around
Are you going my wa-ay
Who can I talk to without a sound
Out of the planet comes Gretchen
With faith, hope and love
Never the dull of a moment
Ever to ever be true
(Ever forever be true)
Touching the sky just to hold it maybe
It won't be so blue
I hear the music again all around
Are you going my wa-ay
Who can I talk to without a sound
Out of the planet comes Gretchen without.....
Give me not a little bit of love without measure
Now and ever on to you
Let me hear the beat to make my heart beat strong
(Make it beat stronger)
Swing down sweet chariot song (Come on)
Let me ride
To take a look at what I'm looking ooh
(What I'm looking after)
A little spark something to
Analyze, analyze, analyze
Ahhhhhh-Ahhhhhh
Uhhhhhh-Ahhhhhh (yeah)
Ahhhhhh-Ahhhhhh
(And the choir sings)
Do-wa-diddy-diddy
(As they walk down the aisle)
Dum-diddy-doo
Let me hear the beat to make my heart beat strong
(Make it beat stronger)
Swing down sweet chariot song (come on)
Let me ride
To take a look at what I'm looking oooh
(What I'm looking after)
A little spark something to
Analyze, analyze, analyze
If I could only have one thing
Give me the loving
(Loving is nothing to doubt)
A shot to the left and I fall down
Cover me
Ever to ever be true
Touching the sky just to hold it
I hear the music again all around
Are you going my wa-ay
Who can I talk to without a sound
Out of the planet comes Gretchen with....
Give me not a little bit, love without measure
Now and ever on to you
Give me not a little bit, love without measure
Now and ever on to you
I hear the music again all around
Are you going my wa-ay
Who can I talk to without a sound
(Guess that's it)
Give me the loving
(Loving is nothing to doubt)
A shot to the left and I fall down
Cover me
I hear the music again all around
Are you going my wa-ay
Who can I talk to without a sound
Out of the planet comes Gretchen
With faith, hope and love
Never the dull of a moment
Ever to ever be true
(Ever forever be true)
Touching the sky just to hold it maybe
It won't be so blue
I hear the music again all around
Are you going my wa-ay
Who can I talk to without a sound
Out of the planet comes Gretchen without.....
Give me not a little bit of love without measure
Now and ever on to you
Let me hear the beat to make my heart beat strong
