Lyrics
Brotherman (Schult/Stocks)
And Brotherman will you lead me to the Promised Land?
And Sistergirl, will you show me your world?
And Preacherman, will you take me by the hand?
And did you know, there?s really no perfect world?
Hey Brotherman will you lead me to the Promised Land?
And Sistergirl, will you show me your world?
And Preacherman, will you take me by the hand?
And did you know, there?s really no perfect world?
I went to the other side where the grass is so green
I went to the mountaintop and still I couldn?t see
Never really came around ?til it all was gone
Never really played it down, and I played it wrong
And Brotherman will you lead me to the Promised Land?
And Sistergirl, will you show me your world?
Yes Preacherman, will you take me by the hand?
And did you know, there?s really no perfect world?
I know you can?t decide on what to believe
I heard it simplified, being funky and free
Never really came around ?til it all was gone
Never really played it down, and I played it and wrong
Hey Brotherman will you lead me to the Promised Land?
And Sistergirl, will you show me your world?
Yes Preacherman, will you take me by the hand?
And did you know, there?s really no perfect world?
I went to the other side where the grass is so green
I went to the mountaintop and still I couldn?t see
Everybody?s talkin? ?bout this crazy world
Don?t waste the Truth girl, and I did what I could
