The Staple Singers - Who Made The Man lyrics
[The Staple Singers - Who Made The Man lyrics]
Children, our subject for the
Day is material things
Such as boats, cars, planes and trains
All of these things were made
By the hands of man
To help us get over this
Great big land of ours
But sometimes we overlook the power within
Preaches the almighty God
Without Him, material things we
Would never seen
Y'all
And I think we should sing about that
M-m-m-m-mmmm-mmmmm
Who made the man? (Yeah)
He did
Who made the woman, now?
He did
Don't you think it's about time
For me and you
(Me and you)
To give a little credit where credit is due?
Who made the man? (Yeah)
He did (He did)
Who made the woman, now? (Oh, yeah)
He did (He did)
Don't you think it's about time
For me and you
To give a little credit where credit is due?
But, next is power
Which will swallow us up in less than an hour
We have doctors, lawyers and indian chiefs
Governnment and politicians that
Can't be beat
And even so these greats sometimes
Let power overtake their mind
They even forget about the Almighty
The real power
That kept them runnin' this
Great country of ours
The Almighty is the power and the Glory
Y'all
I think we should sing about that again
Who made the man? (Yeah)
He did
Who made the woman, now?
He did (Oh yeah)
Don't you think it's about time
For me and you
(About time)
To give a little credit where credit is due?
Who made the man? (Oh)
He did
Who made the woman, now? (Yeah)
He did
Don't you think it's about time
For me and you
(Me and you)
To give a little credit where credit is due?
Who hung the sun up?
Who hung the moon?
Who hung the stars in the sky?
(Oh, yeah)
He did
Who made the man? (He made the man)
He did
Who made the woman, now? (He made woman)
He did
Don't you think it's about time
For me and you
(He made the land, He made the sand
Before anybody asked)
To give a little credit where credit is due?
Who made the man?
He did
Who made the woman, now?
He did
Don't you think it's about time
For me and you
To give a little credit where credit is due?
Who made the man?
He did
Who made the woman, now?
He did
Don't you think it's about time
For me and you
To give a little credit where credit is due?
Who made the man?
