(Words & music by Leiber - Stoller) I wanna soothe my my heart, I wanna ease my mind I wanna move my shoes and see what I can find
I wanna stand up tall and open up my eyes I wanna reach out my hand until I touch the skies I was a poor lost lamb in a deep dark hole But now I´ve found that light I´m gonna save my soul I used to drink, I used to smoke I used to smoke, drink and dance the hoochy-coo I used to smoke and drink, smoke and drink and dance the hoochy-coo Oh yeh! And now I´m standing on thius corner praying for me and you
I-I-I That´s why I´m saved I´m saved People let me tell you ´bout kingdom come You know I´m saved I´m saved Well I can preach until you´re deaf and dumb I´m in that soul saving army beating on that big bass drum
I used to cuss, I used to fuss I used to fuss, cuss, worry all night long I used to cuss and fuss, cuss and fuss, Cuss and fuss and worry all night long Well now I´m standing on this corner, I know right from wrong
I-I-I That´s why I´m saved I´m saved People let me tell you ´bout kingdom come You know I´m saved I´m saved Well I can preach until you´re deaf and dumb I´m in that soul saving army beating on that big bass drum
I used to lie, I used to cheat I used to lie, cheat, steal from people´s feet I used to lie and cheat, lie and cheat and steal from people´s feet
Well now I´m steppin´ on to glory salvation in my beat
Because I´m saved, I´m saved People let me tell you ´bout kingdom come I am saved I´m saved Well I can preach until you´re deaf and dumb I´m in that soul saving army beating on that big bass drum
I´m in that soul saving army beating on that big bass drum Oh yeh! Because I´m saved, I´m saved People let me tell you ´bout kingdom come You know I´m saved I´m saved Well I can preach until you´re deaf and dumb I´m saved, I´m saved I´m saved
