Ben Harper Ground on Down lyrics

I believe in a few things
God, the devil and love
'Cause I've looked up from the bottom
And I've stared down from above

And I have faith in a few things
Divinity and grace
But even when I'm on my knees
I know the devil prays

And you're workin' your way
From the ground on down

I hate to say I love you
Because it means that I
Will be with you forever
Or will sadly say goodbye

And I love to say I hate you
Because it means that
I will live my life happily without you
Or will sadly live a lie


And you're workin', your way
From the ground on down, on down
Your way from the ground on down, on down

Check it out

Life is short
And if your lookin' for extension
With your time
You had best do well

'Cause there's good deeds
And there is good intention
They're as far apart
As Heaven and Hell

As that you're workin' your way
From the ground on down, on down
Your way from the ground
Way
