Amen

This is a rough place

To find a seat

This life is a confusion play

With conflict after conflict

Day after day

Amen is all I got to say

There are people out in the alleys

There are people across this land

There’s sadness across this country

With people who just don’t give a damn

We continue on with the sickness

Like we have so many times before

Amen, and Amen, and shut the door

You can blame it on the weather

Or simply on the day

Rough times are here to stay

There are women who have suffered

By the back of many man's hands

There are people who have disgraced themselves

Keeping their heads in the sand

And the greed of the three-piece suit

With their signatures and weapons in their hands

Say Amen, and Amen

That’s all we got to say
