LaVern Baker - Saved lyrics
[LaVern Baker - Saved lyrics]
I used to smoke
Drink and dance the hoochie-coo
I used to smoke and drink
Smoke and drink and dance the hoochie-coo
Whoa, yeah
But now I'm standin' on this corner
Prayin' for a-me and you ah, hah
That's why I'm saved (saved)
I'm saved (saved)
People let me tell you 'bout a kingdom come
You know I'm saved (saved) i'm saved (saved)
I can a-preach until you're deaf and dumb
I'm in that soul-savin' army
Beatin' on that big a bass drum whoa, yeah
I used to cuss, I used to fuss
I used to cuss
Fuss and boogie all night long
I used to cuss and fuss
Cuss and fuss and boogie all night long
Wah, hah but now I'm standin' on this corner
Ah, I know right-a from wrong uh, huh
That's why I'm saved (saved)
I'm saved (saved)
People let me tell you 'bout a kingdom come
You know I'm saved (saved) i'm saved (saved)
I can a-preach until you're deaf and dumb
I'm in that soul-savin' army
Beatin' on that big a bass drum whoa, yeah
I used to lie (lie) , I used to cheat (cheat)
I used to lie (lie)
Cheat (cheat) and step on people's feet
I used to lie and cheat
Lie and cheat and step on people's feet
Oh, yeah but now I'm steppin' on the glory
Salvation is-a my beat whoa, yeah
Because I'm saved (saved) i'm saved (saved)
People let me tell you 'bout a kingdom come
You know I'm saved (saved) oh, saved (saved)
I can a-preach until you're deaf and dumb
I'm in that soul-savin' army
Beatin' on that big a bass drum whoa, yeah
That's why I'm saved (saved)
I'm saved (saved) i'm saved (saved)
I'm saved (saved) i'm saved (saved)
Ah ah (saved) ah ah (saved)
I'm saved (saved) oh, yeah (saved)
Oh, yeah (saved) i'm saved (saved)
Mm hmm (saved) mm hm hm
Ah ha ha (saved) ooh hoo hoo (saved)
Ah ha ha (saved) oh, oh (saved)
Whoa oh (saved) i'm saved (saved)
