Lyrics

(Hold on, hold on!) (Hold on, hold on!) Started my life In a worn torn dress that somebody threw out I knew the way it felt to always live in doubt To be without the simple things So afraid my could see the guilt in me So I got a good job in the city Working for the man ev'ry night and day But I never lost a minute of sleep Worrying 'bout the way the things Might have been I was a devil with a blue dress, blue dress, blue dress Devil with the blue dress on I was a ho! Sugar pie, honey bunch You know that I love you I can't help myself I love you and nobody else Wait! Oh, yeah, wait a minute Mister postman Wait! Wait Mister Postman (Mister Postman, look and see) If there's a letter in your bag for me I've been waiting such a long, long time Deliver the letter The sooner the better! She wore an itsy bitsy Teeny weeny Yellow polka dot bikini Stop! In the name of love Deloris: But my mama told me "You better shop around." Whoo! Do the hustle! Do the hustle! But it wasn't enought, baby Because I needed cash I needed Money, money, money, money Money! Money, money, money, money I was a bad girl Talking 'bout the sad girl Freak out! Mister Big Stuff Who do you think you are? Mister Big Stuff You're never gonna get my love But he did! He got my coat He got my love He got my cousin pregnant And when I tried to throw him out baby You know what he did? He whipped out this great big All: Shotgun Shoot him 'fore he runs, now Do the jerk, baby Do the jerk now Deloris: Hey, I had nowhere to run to, baby Nowhere to hide I had nowhere to run to, baby Nowhere to hide Until Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelu! Nothing you can say could tear me away From my God My God Nothing you can do 'cause I'm stuck like glue to my God He may not be a movie star But when it comes to be happy We are There's not a man today Who could take me away from my Good What'd you say? There's not a man today Who could take me away from I love Him. I love Him. I love Him I love Him. I love Him. I love Him Whoo! I will follow him Follow him wherever He may go There isn't an ocean too deep A mountain so hight it can keep Keep me away All: away from his love Why? 'Cause we are family I got all my sisters with me We are family Get up ev'ry body and sing We are family I got all my sisters with me We are family Get up ev'ry body Get up ev'ry body Get up ev'ry body and sing
