Irma Thomas – Underground Stream lyrics
I heard you say you lost your faint
And hope for the generations
And all of your good deeds don't pay
And you don't get no appreciation
Said you don't get no appreciation
[Bridge]
Well theres a hidden vein of water
Steady running deep ever flowing secretly
Just to make the ground green
Theres an underground stream
[Chorus]
Sweet sweet water
Give the sons and daughters
Bless it like the flowers that drink from
The underground stream
Sisters and brothers have a sweet drink of water
From an underground stream, yeah
C'mon people its time we start
Ain't no time for hesitation
Before we rip this world apart
Better help create some motivation
Like mounds of love for ever heart
Like crushes green to feed the nation
Like everyone who plays a part
In lifting up this whole creation
I said lifting up this whole creation
[Bridge]
[Chorus: x4]
And hope for the generations
And all of your good deeds don't pay
And you don't get no appreciation
Said you don't get no appreciation
[Bridge]
Well theres a hidden vein of water
Steady running deep ever flowing secretly
Just to make the ground green
Theres an underground stream
[Chorus]
Sweet sweet water
Give the sons and daughters
Bless it like the flowers that drink from
The underground stream
Sisters and brothers have a sweet drink of water
From an underground stream, yeah
C'mon people its time we start
Ain't no time for hesitation
Before we rip this world apart
Better help create some motivation
Like mounds of love for ever heart
Like crushes green to feed the nation
Like everyone who plays a part
In lifting up this whole creation
I said lifting up this whole creation
[Bridge]
[Chorus: x4]
