Save The Country - Thelma Houston

Come on, people, come on, children

Come on down to the glory river

Gonna wash you up and wash you down

Gonna lay the devil down, gonna lay that devil down

Come on, people, come on, children

There’s a king at the glory river

And the precious king, he loved the people to sing

Babes in the blinking sun sang «We Shall Overcome»

I got fury in my soul, fury’s gonna take me to the glory goal

In my mind I can’t study war no more

Save the people

Save the children

Save the country now

Come on, people, come on, children

Come on down to the glory river

Gonna wash you up and wash you down

Gonna lay the devil down, gonna lay that devil down

Come on, people, sons and mothers

Keep the dream of the two young brothers

Gotta take that dream and ride that dove

We can build the dream with love, I know

We can build the dream with love

We could build the dream with love, I know

We could build the dream with love

I got fury in my soul, fury’s gonna take me to the glory goal

In my mind I can’t study war no more

Save the people

Save the children

Save the country, save the country, save the country

Save the country
