The Prophet

Lyrics

[Intro / Chorus] I never thought too much on wealth To let me keep it for myself But while the world's been turning upside-down It's hard to talk about Another bottle off the shelf With the hand that you've been dealt What's going wrong's been going on It's time for you to scream and shout [Verse] And I ain't no prophet To cure some damn disease And would you help me anyway If I was on my knees I'm going through my time of change In my time of need And every little thing is gonna Be all the same [Chorus] I never thought too much on wealth To let me keep it for myself But while the world's been turning upside-down It's hard to talk about Another bottle off the shelf With the hand that you've been dealt What's going wrong's been going on It's time for you to scream and shout [Short Interlude] [Verse] I went to that corner store To get myself a bottle of beer I was a-rollin with a friend of mine When the livin' was a little more clear I always knew what I wanted from the start Was a reason just to get out and play Well drinkin' early was a thing for the summertime Music, and my sweet Mary Jane [Chorus] I never thought too much on wealth To let me keep it for myself But while the world's been turning upside-down It's hard to talk about [Interlude / Mini Solo] I never thought too much on wealth To let me keep it for myself But while the world's been turning upside-down It's hard to talk about Another bottle off the shelf With the hand that you've been dealt What's going wrong's been going on It's time for you to scream and shout What's going wrong's been going on It's time for you to scream and shout It's time for you to scream and shout It's time for you to scream and shout
