Testo Downward Road - Mavis Staples
Testo della canzone Downward Road (Mavis Staples), tratta dall'album You Are Not Alone
Oh, the downward road is (crowded)
Oh, well, it's (crowded)
Yes, it is (crowded)
Oh, the downward road is (crowded)
Oh, with unbelieving souls
Young people who delight in sin (ooh)
Telling you what (crowded) I've plainly seen (ooh)
Poor and godless (crowded) woman died (ooh)
She didn't have Jesus (crowded) on her side (ooh) well
She laughed and played her (crowded) time away and (ooh)
Still put off her (crowded) dying day (ooh)
Oh, the downward road is (crowded)
Oh, well it's (crowded) yes, it is (crowded)
Yeah, the downward road is (crowded)
Oh, with unbelieving souls
The Lord God almighty had his plans all fixed (ooh)
Friday morning (crowded) the woman took sick
Well she called her mother (crowded) to her room to listen to her dying dooms (ooh, crowded)
Your prayers are lost (crowded) you pray for me
My soul is doomed (crowded) I can plainly see
So mother and father (crowded) fair thee well
Your wicked daughter's doomed to hell
Oh, the downward road is (crowded)
Oh, well, it's (crowded) oh, yeah (crowded)
Yeah, the downward road is crowded
Oh, with unbelieving souls
Oh, the downward road is (crowded)
Oh, well it's (crowded)
Yeah (crowded)
Oh, the downward road is (crowded)
Oh, with unbelieving souls
With unbelieving souls
Crowded with unbelieving souls
