Blood Harmony

God gave mama a singing voice Mama passed it down to me Always with me, near my heart Beat in rhythm with her melody More than flesh, more than bone When you sing, I don't sing alone I said, "Y'all know what I need Lay it back on the top of the beat" I said, "Y'all know what I need C'mon and clap your hands and stomp your feet" If you can count to four You don't need a-nothin' more Help me make that chord There's nothing quite like blood harmony, oh Blood harmony, oh, oh Blackbird singing for herself She got wings to bear her far away The night surrenders to the dawn Still, I can hear the blackbird song More than flesh, more than bone When you sing, I don't sing alone I said, "Y'all know what I need Lay it back on the top of the beat" I said, "Y'all know what I need C'mon and clap your hands and stomp your feet" If you can count to four You don't need a-nothing more Help me make that chord There's nothing quite like blood harmony, oh Blood harmony, oh, oh It's gonna roll, roll like a river Rhythm gonna set you free You got soul Stand and deliver Shake that family tree It's gonna roll, roll like a river Rhythm gonna set you free You got a soul Stand and deliver Shake that family tree I say, "Y'all know what I need C'mon and lay it back on the top of the beat" I said, "Y'all know what I need C'mon and clap those hands and stomp those feet" If you can count to four You don't need a-nothing more Help me make that chord There's nothing quite like blood harmony, oh Blood harmony, oh, oh
