Well I see hands, and I've seen tear-stained faces
Reaching up but not quite touching the promised land
Well, I taste tears and a precious year is wasted
Say Lord please, send us a helping hand
And on the mountain stands a woman
I feel a shining light
Lord must be the answer
Thank you Lord, and keep her alright
Got them earth blues today
I hear the thunder of freedom's beating heart
Sirens clashing with black earth and rocking stone
I think you better love me now darling, it might be too late after a while
And tell our child to bury daddy's old clothes
I feel a shining light
Lord must be the answer
Thank you Lord, and keep her alright
Got them earth blues today
Help me going
To keep the light
Everything alright
Keep shining bright
Help me darling
Help me darling
Got those earth blues today
Sometimes my imagination grabs me by surprise
A queen of ebony chains I visualize
And back on the moon, I see her portrait in a tomb
And these words are written, first woman from God's womb
I feel a shining light
Lord must be the answer
Thank you Lord, and keep her alright
Got them earth blues today
