Can't Keep A Good Man Down

Nah-nah, nah-nah-nah

Nah-nah-nah, nah-nah-nah-nah

Nah-nah, nah-nah-nah

He said goodbye to the angels of Heaven

And He came to Earth as a common man

He taught us how we could love one another

There was healing in His hands

There were those who believed and followed Him

And there were those who wanted Him dead

They thought the grave would silence Him forever

But they found out instead

You can close your eyes, you can say it's a lie

You can stick your head in the sand

You can turn away, even try to explain

He was just another man

When they nailed Him to the cross by His hands and His feet

And they put Him in the ground

Three days later, everybody found out that you can't

No, you can't keep a good man down, no

No, you can't keep a good man down

I hear you say that it all sounds crazy

It's a good story, but it can't be true

How could a man who was dead and buried

Mean a thing to me and you?

Here we are two thousand years later (all alive)

And still, the choice is just the same (it's just the same)

You can say that you don't believe it, but it doesn't change a thing

You can close your eyes, you can say it's a lie

You can stick your head in the sand

You can turn away (away), even try to explain

He was just another man (not just a man)

When they nailed Him to the cross by His hands and His feet

And they put Him in the ground

Three days later, everybody found out that you can't

No, you can't keep a good man down, no

No, you can't keep a good man down

(No, you can't keep, can't keep a good man down)

I can take you to the hill where they hung Him on the cross

I can take you to the empty tomb

I can tell you He's alive 'cause He lives in me

But the rest is up to you

Nah-nah, nah-nah-nah

Nah-nah-nah, nah-nah-nah-nah

Nah-nah, nah-nah-nah

You can close your eyes, you can say it's a lie

You can stick your head in the sand

You can turn away (away), even try to explain

He was just another man (not just a man)

When they nailed Him to the cross by His hands and His feet

And they put Him in the ground (yeah, yeah)

Three days later, everybody found out that you can't

No, you can't keep a good man down, no (nah-nah-nah)

No, you can't keep a good man down (nah-nah-nah-nah)

Nah-nah, nah-nah-nah

Nah-nah-nah, nah-nah-nah-nah

Nah-nah, nah-nah-nah (you can say it's a lie, but there ain't no doubt)

Nah-nah-nah, nah-nah-nah-nah (Jesus lives, oh, you can't keep Him down)

Nah-nah, nah-nah-nah (you can't, you can't, you can't keep)

Nah-nah-nah, nah-nah-nah-nah (a good man down, no)

Nah-nah, nah-nah-nah

Nah-nah-nah, nah-nah-nah-nah (you can't keep a good man down, no, no)

Nah-nah, nah-nah-nah (no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no)

Nah-nah-nah, nah-nah-nah-nah (no, no, no, no, no, no)

Nah-nah, nah-nah-nah (you can't keep-)

Nah-nah-nah, nah-nah-nah-nah
