Sister Rosetta Tharpe praised the Lord
with her white Gibson SG and some early rock
Elvis sang on TV : „Peace In The Valley“
and Little Richard recorded: „Ride On King Jesus“
Jerry Lee Lewis went to bible school
ok he left it later for rock'n'roll
and Johnny Cash knew much about the Lord
called him the greatest cowboy of them all
so what about you
why are you so insecure?
where are your ideals
where are your beliefs?
Mahalia Jackson had an awesome voice
still refused to sing secular tunes
George Harrison went spiritual
Hare Hare, "My Sweet Lord" was in his soul
The Who acknowledged Meher Baba
"Bargain", "See Me Feel Me", Looking At You
with punk the Bad Brains spread the Rastafari thoughts
and Ray Today and Cro-Mags mixed Krishna with hardcore
so what about you
why are you so insecure?
where are your ideals
where are your beliefs?
Sun Ra,
Aretha Franklin
Bob Marley
John Coltrane
Bob Dylan
Hank Williams for sure
but you only care bout what people might have thought
