It's Alright (Bonus Hymn) Songtext

von Dave Hollister

Have you ever been in love with somebody
No matter how bad they treated you
Still came back for more
Don't somebody know what I'm talkin' about
Well, I'm here to testify this evening
About how love will do you, if ya let it
I know somebody can relate to me
When I tell you, it's alright, yeah

1 - It's alright, how you do me
I'm a fool for lettin' you use me
It's okay, if you wanna play around
Spreadin' my love all over town

It's alright, how you do me
I'm a fool for lettin' you use me
It's okay, if you stay
But if you wanna go away
It's alright

I'll tell you what I did last night
I stayed up and I thought about you
You said you'd be home at 10
But baby girl, you never came in
Now I'm not the one to be perfect
But girl don't ya know it's a shame
We have a home, and 2 little children
So why ya wanna play these games?

So many times I thought about leavin'
Then I looked into my children's eyes
I can't see myself walkin' out baby
So I stay here, and deal wit your lies
And I know that you think you're hurtin' me
But you're just hurtin' yourself
I gave you love, unconditional
A love you won't find anywhere else, oh

Repeat 1

Now I lay me down to sleep
I pray to the Lord, my family he'd keep
If you should leave me before I wake
Baby, pack your bags, go on away
I'll still be in love with you
But if it's what you wanna do, yeah

(It's alright) How you lied to me
Why you tryin' to break up our family?
You know it's a cryin' shame
Why ya keep playin' silly love games
I've done about all that I can do
Don't know why I still love you
But girl, if you walk away
There's only one thing left for me to say
It's alright

Repeat 1
Repeat 1

I'll be alright
Oh yeah
(It's alright)
Baby, look what you've done to me
(Baby, how you do me)
But I'm makin' plans
(How you do me)
I'mma be alright
(It's alright)
What about our children?
What about our 2 little babies?
You know it's a damn shame
(How you do me)
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
