I went to see the preacher
to teach me how to pray
he looked at me and smiled
then the preacher turned away
He said "If you want to tell Him something
you ain't gotta fold your hands
Say it with your heart
Your soul and believe it
And I'd say amen
Bang a drum for the sinners
Bang a drum for the sins
Bang a drum for the losers
and those who win
Bang a drum bang it loudly
or as soft as you need
Bang a drum for yourself son
and a drum for me"
Ohh.. Let me here you say "yeah, yeah
Halleluiah, amen"
I called upon my brother just the other day
He said: John I'm gonna die
if I don't start to live again
I work each day and night like clockwork
just trying to make ends meet
I could kick this bad world's ass
If I could just get on my feet
I'd bang a drum for the dyin'
Bang a drum for the truth
Bang a drum for the innocence
Lost in our youth
Bang a drum bang it loudly
Or as soft as you need
Bang a drum for you brother
And a drum for me
I don't know where all the rivers run
I don't know how far, I don't know how come
But I'm gonna die believin'
Each step that I take
Ain't worth the ground that I walk on
if we don't walk it our
Own way
No I don't claim to be a wise man
a poet or a saint
I'm just another man who's searching
for a better way
But my heart beats loud as thunder
for the things that I believe
Sometimes I wanna run for cover
sometimes I want to scream
Bang a drum for tomorrow
Bang a drum for the past
Bang a drum for the heroes
that won't come back
Bang a drum for the promise
Bang a drum for the lies
Bang a drum for the lovers
end the tears they've cried
Bang a drum bang it loudly
or as soft as you need
But as long as my heart keeps on bangin'
I got a reason to believe
Yeah, yeah oh, yeah
Yeah, Halleluiah, amen
Let me hear you say "Yeah"
Yeah, Yeah, yeah oh yeah
Let me hear you say "Yeah"
Yeah, Halleluiah, amen
C'mon now, yeah
Yeah, yeah, oh yeah
Let me hear you say "Yeah"
Yeah, Halleluiah, amen
Alright girls yeah, brothers yeah
Yeah, oh yeah
Let me hear you say "Yeah"
Yeah, Halleluiah, amen
