Lyrics

Oh Lord, it's you
It pays, it pays
Every man, every woman
Every boy, every girl
Been this way down
To do good
I wish you try to do good
I wish you
In the morning you leave your home
And now it's time to go back home
Is what I heard early this morning
Without even getting a warning
It pays, it pays
Every man, every woman
Every boy, every girl
Been this way down
To do good
I wish you try to do good
I wish you
In the morning you leave your home
And now it's time to go back home
Is what I heard early this morning
Without even getting a warning
It pays, it pays
Every man, every woman
Every boy, every girl
Been this way down
To do good
I wish you try to do good
I wish you
