All Good People lyrics - Delta Rae
There are dogs in the yard, howling at the moon
There are sinners like me our judgment's coming soon
And I stand at the bottom of this dark and lonely well
Saying "please give me answers so I might escape Hell"
I watched from my window as they gunned down unarmed men
Tried to say it's not my problem: couldn't happen to my friends
But the truth is they're my brothers, and they're my countrymen
And if we lose our better angels, we won't get them back again
Come on and raise your voice above the raging seas
We can't hold our breath forever when our brothers cannot breathe
Come on and raise your voice above the raging seas
We can't hold our breath forever when our brothers cannot breathe
Oh, oh
Oh, oh
Oh, oh
Our brothers cannot breathe
Oh, oh
Oh, oh
Oh, oh
Our brothers cannot breathe
All good people, won't you come around?
Won't you come around?
Won't you come around?
All good people, won't you come around?
Won't you come around?
Defend your brothers
All good people, won't you come around?
Won't you come around?
Won't you come around?
All good people, won't you come around?
Won't you come around?
Hold up each other
There are sinners like me our judgment's coming soon
And I stand at the bottom of this dark and lonely well
Saying "please give me answers so I might escape Hell"
I watched from my window as they gunned down unarmed men
Tried to say it's not my problem: couldn't happen to my friends
But the truth is they're my brothers, and they're my countrymen
And if we lose our better angels, we won't get them back again
Come on and raise your voice above the raging seas
We can't hold our breath forever when our brothers cannot breathe
Come on and raise your voice above the raging seas
We can't hold our breath forever when our brothers cannot breathe
Oh, oh
Oh, oh
Oh, oh
Our brothers cannot breathe
Oh, oh
Oh, oh
Oh, oh
Our brothers cannot breathe
All good people, won't you come around?
Won't you come around?
Won't you come around?
All good people, won't you come around?
Won't you come around?
Defend your brothers
All good people, won't you come around?
Won't you come around?
Won't you come around?
All good people, won't you come around?
Won't you come around?
Hold up each other
Do You Ever Dream? lyrics - Delta Rae
Do you ever dream?
Do you ever see the future when you look at me?
A little house in the mountains surrounded by the evergreens
A homemade meal and a couple kids
Or is just the moment?
Is it the sex and the comfort and the laughs that keep you coming back?
I hate to ruin the romance baby but I have to ask
Is there something I can't see?
Do you ever dream?
Do you ever dream?
Or do you want to leave this world while you're still young and free?
Live on the edge and leave falling in love to girls like me
And you'd give me just enough
But you never call, you never share
You're never wrong, and it's not fair
I had a vision of who I'd be
And baby I'm not there
Do you ever dream?
Do you ever dream when the nights get lonely?
You're gonna wish that I was there
Do you ever dream how it's gonna hurt baby
When there's nobody that cares
About the stories that you tell?
Do you even get that far?
'Cause I've been living in this moment
And it's all falling apart
Do you ever dream?
Hold on to something you can't see
Give me a reason not to leave
Do you ever see the future when you look at me?
A little house in the mountains surrounded by the evergreens
A homemade meal and a couple kids
Or is just the moment?
Is it the sex and the comfort and the laughs that keep you coming back?
I hate to ruin the romance baby but I have to ask
Is there something I can't see?
Do you ever dream?
Do you ever dream?
Or do you want to leave this world while you're still young and free?
Live on the edge and leave falling in love to girls like me
And you'd give me just enough
But you never call, you never share
You're never wrong, and it's not fair
I had a vision of who I'd be
And baby I'm not there
Do you ever dream?
Do you ever dream when the nights get lonely?
You're gonna wish that I was there
Do you ever dream how it's gonna hurt baby
When there's nobody that cares
About the stories that you tell?
Do you even get that far?
'Cause I've been living in this moment
And it's all falling apart
Do you ever dream?
Hold on to something you can't see
Give me a reason not to leave
Hands Dirty lyrics - Delta Rae
I could raise the crap from the earth
I could raise my children from birth
But when I'm looking for work
They say that job ain't for her
I could be a good man's wife
I could give a new child life
But when I fight for my rights
They say no woman, no cry
But I ain't giving up
I can't count on love
I get my hands dirty
I show up so early
They show me no mercy
So I just keep working
Maybe God could save me
Or my boss might pay me
Right now no one serves me
Maybe their hands are dirty, dirty, dirty?
I could lead impossible missions
Occupy the highest position
But when I ask them to listen
They disregard my opinion
Well, I ain't askin' no more
I will command the floor
I'm breaking every glass ceiling
I'm building skyscraping buildings
And when that next storm comes
I'll do what I always done
I get my hands dirty
I show up so early
They show me no mercy
So I just keep working
Maybe God could save me
Or my boss might pay me
Am I so unworthy?
Or are their hands just dirty, dirty, dirty?
And I have seen the other side of the mountain
Where every queen will be afforded her throne
And I will stand beside my sisters
And all persistent resisters
They'll say I knew it would come true
And I'll say "darling, me too"
I get my hands dirty
I show up so early
They show me no mercy
So I just keep working
Maybe God could save me
Or my boss might pay me
Right now no one serves me
Maybe their hands are dirty?
I get my hands dirty
I show up so early
They show me no mercy
So I just keep working
Maybe God could save me
Or my boss might pay me
Am I so unworthy?
Or are their hands just dirty, dirty, dirty?
I could raise my children from birth
But when I'm looking for work
They say that job ain't for her
I could be a good man's wife
I could give a new child life
But when I fight for my rights
They say no woman, no cry
But I ain't giving up
I can't count on love
I get my hands dirty
I show up so early
They show me no mercy
So I just keep working
Maybe God could save me
Or my boss might pay me
Right now no one serves me
Maybe their hands are dirty, dirty, dirty?
I could lead impossible missions
Occupy the highest position
But when I ask them to listen
They disregard my opinion
Well, I ain't askin' no more
I will command the floor
I'm breaking every glass ceiling
I'm building skyscraping buildings
And when that next storm comes
I'll do what I always done
I get my hands dirty
I show up so early
They show me no mercy
So I just keep working
Maybe God could save me
Or my boss might pay me
Am I so unworthy?
Or are their hands just dirty, dirty, dirty?
And I have seen the other side of the mountain
Where every queen will be afforded her throne
And I will stand beside my sisters
And all persistent resisters
They'll say I knew it would come true
And I'll say "darling, me too"
I get my hands dirty
I show up so early
They show me no mercy
So I just keep working
Maybe God could save me
Or my boss might pay me
Right now no one serves me
Maybe their hands are dirty?
I get my hands dirty
I show up so early
They show me no mercy
So I just keep working
Maybe God could save me
Or my boss might pay me
Am I so unworthy?
Or are their hands just dirty, dirty, dirty?
Out Of The Badlands lyrics - Delta Rae
Don't tell your mama,
Don't tell your daddy,
Baby, let's just go.
The only escaping, the only salvation
Is a long dark road
You're bitin' your lip girl,
You're tight as a fist girl,
We'll be all right
Once we're over the hot sand,
Out of the badlands, into the night.
Don't trust the teachers,
Don't trust the preachers
That the world is round
We'll find out for ourselves,
Once we break past the shell on the edge of this town
I got some twenties and tens
In a Maxwell House can with the lid on tight,
To get us over the hot sand,
Out of the badlands, into the night.
Oh,
There's a billion little stars,
Oh,
Let's pick out which one is ours
Oh,
Girl, I need you by my side,
To get over the hot sand,
Out of the badlands, into the night.
Baby you'd better
Get jeans and a sweater
If the air gets cold
'Cause we been dreaming bout breaking out,
Running away, since seven years old
And it won't be as hard
Once the fence in our yard
Disappears out of sight
When we're over the hot sand,
Out of the badlands, into the night.
Oh,
There's a billion little stars,
Oh,
Let's pick out which one is ours
Oh,
Girl, I need you by my side,
To get over the hot sand,
Out of the badlands, into the night.
To get over the hot sand,
Out of the badlands, into the night.
Don't tell your daddy,
Baby, let's just go.
The only escaping, the only salvation
Is a long dark road
You're bitin' your lip girl,
You're tight as a fist girl,
We'll be all right
Once we're over the hot sand,
Out of the badlands, into the night.
Don't trust the teachers,
Don't trust the preachers
That the world is round
We'll find out for ourselves,
Once we break past the shell on the edge of this town
I got some twenties and tens
In a Maxwell House can with the lid on tight,
To get us over the hot sand,
Out of the badlands, into the night.
Oh,
There's a billion little stars,
Oh,
Let's pick out which one is ours
Oh,
Girl, I need you by my side,
To get over the hot sand,
Out of the badlands, into the night.
Baby you'd better
Get jeans and a sweater
If the air gets cold
'Cause we been dreaming bout breaking out,
Running away, since seven years old
And it won't be as hard
Once the fence in our yard
Disappears out of sight
When we're over the hot sand,
Out of the badlands, into the night.
Oh,
There's a billion little stars,
Oh,
Let's pick out which one is ours
Oh,
Girl, I need you by my side,
To get over the hot sand,
Out of the badlands, into the night.
To get over the hot sand,
Out of the badlands, into the night.
