TFT: Sly and The Family Stone

Link: [Sly and The Family Stone]

Not every song that will be featured here will be what is generally considered as being “Christian” in the eyes of this world.  For some will be anguished cries from the pit of despair while others will be quite obviously fervent rants of rebellion.  Nonetheless, be assured that they will all be of our Heavenly Father (in one way or another) and I hope that you have been given ears to hear the message.

Everyday People

Sly and The Family Stone

All together now

Yeah

Yeah yeah

Yeah

Yeah yeah

Oh sha sha

Sometimes I'm right

And I can be wrong

My own beliefs

Are in my song

The butcher

The banker

The drummer

And then

Makes no difference

What group I'm in

I

Am everyday people

Yeah yeah

There is a blue one

Who can't accept the green one

For living with a fat one

Trying to be a skinny one

Different strokes

For different folks

And so on

And so on

And scooby dooby doo

Oh sha sha

We got to live together

Oh sha sha

I am no better

And neither are you

We are the same

Whatever we do

You love me

You hate me

You know me

And then

You can't figure out

The bag I'm in

I

Am everyday people

Yeah yeah

There is a long hair

That doesn't like the short hair

For being such a rich one

That will not help the poor one

Different strokes

For different folks

And so on

And so on

And scooby dooby doo

Oh sha sha

We got to live together

Oh sha sha

I am no better

And neither are you

We are the same

Whatever we do

You love me

You hate me

You know me

And then

You can't figure out

The bag I'm in

I

Am everyday people

Yeah yeah

There is a long hair

That doesn't like the short hair

For being such a rich one

That will not help the poor one

Different strokes

For different folks

And so on

And so on

And scooby dooby doo

Oh sha sha

We got to live together

Oh sha sha

There is a yellow one

That won't accept the black one

That won't accept the red one

That won't accept the white one

Different strokes

For different folks

Oh sha sha

We got to live together

Oh sha sha

There is a yellow one

That won't accept the black one

That won't accept the red one

That won't accept the white one

Different strokes

For different folks

And so on

And so on

And scooby dooby doo

Oh sha sha

I

Am everyday people

Yeah yeah

Oh sha sha

We got to live together

Oh sha sha

Stand!

Sly and The Family Stone

Stand

In the end

You'll still be you

One that's done

All the things

You set out to do

Stand

There's a cross

For you to bear

Things to go through

If you're goin' anywhere

Stand

For the things

You know are right

It's the truth

That’s the truth

Makes them so uptight

Stand

All the things

You want are real

You have you

To complete

And there is no deal

Stand

Stand

Stand

Everybody

Yeah

Stand

Stand

Stand

Stand

You've been sitting

Much too long

There's a permanent crease

In your right and wrong

Stand

There's a midget

Standing tall

And a giant

Beside him

About to fall

Stand

Stand

Stand

Stand

Stand

Stand

Stand

They will try

To make you crawl

And they know

What you're sayin'

Makes sense at all

Stand

Don't you know

That you are free

Well at least in your mind

If you want to be

Everybody

Stand

Stand

Stand

Na na na na na

Na na na

Na na

Stand

Na na na na na

Na na na

Na na

Stand

Na na na na na

Na na na

Na na

Stand

Na na na na na

Na na na

Na na

Stand

Na na na na na

Na na na

Na na
