Testo Action - Mavis Staples
Testo della canzone Action (Mavis Staples), tratta dall'album Livin' On A High Note
Who's going to do it, if I don't?
Sick and tired of feeling sick and tired (this ain't Heaven, help us)
They say my words might get me fired (this ain't Heaven, help us)
What a terrifying time to raise our voices (this ain't Heaven, help us)
But see, I'm not left with many more choices (this ain't Heaven, help us)
I gotta put it into action
(Action) action (action)
Doin' it A to Z until I set myself free (action, action) oh, action
I don't care if you refuse to see (I gotta put it into) action (action) action
Consider this a sign of an emergency (action) action (action) action
Who's going to do it, if I don't do it?
So, my brains are filled with fear (this ain't Heaven, help us)
So, I feel the heat as night comes near (this ain't Heaven, help us)
Oh, A-C-T-I-O-N (this ain't Heaven, help us)
Please don't stop if you're really my friend (this ain't Heaven, help us)
I gotta put it into action (action) action (action)
Doing it A to Z until I feel so free (action, action)
I don't care if you refuse to see (I gotta put it into) action (action) action (action)
Consider this a sign of emergency y'all (action) yeah (action)
Who's gonna do it if I don't do it?
I'm tired of being scared (tired of being scared)
I'm so tired of being scared (tired of being scared)
Scared for my children
I'm scared for our children
I'm tired of being scared
For the mothers and fathers and brothers and sisters (A-C-T-I-N-G)
Gotta share the truth that's inside of me (this is an emergency)
Of the highest and the fullest and the final decree (I'm still trying to be free)
Don't let this separate you and me
Oh, please (who's gonna do it if I don't do it?)
Action (action) action (action)
Doing it A to Z until I feel so free (action) action (action)
I don't care if you refuse to see (I gotta put it into) action (action)
Consider this a sign of emergency (action) action (action)
Who's gonna do it if I don't?
