MiscellaneousThe Gospel Of Carlos, Norman & Smith lyrics by Rickie Lee Jones
Didn't you hear black is a criminal?
White is a crime, poison is the pen
Writing down this children's nursery rhyme
Didn't you see him standing next to me?
The seeds of change have grown
We don't have to hide anymore
Lo lo lo lo lo lo lo lo
That means trouble from the other side
Lo lo lo lo lo lo lo lo
Maybe the trouble of a hopeful heart
It's the trouble of a hopeful heart
It doesn't take much to see if you're looking for an enemy
Greed and apathy spell the letters of our name, yes
You sit and laugh at other people falling
Making money off their shame and sorrow
Awaiting for tomorrow to fix itself
Lo lo lo lo lo lo lo lo
That means trouble from the other side
Lo lo lo lo lo lo lo lo
Maybe the trouble of a hopeful heart
It's a dark night to feed a stranger
I don't have enough to feed myself
I keep trying to believe in believing in something
I can't see from where I stand
I pull it with my faith, with the smile on my face
It's gonna take a lot more than you might be used to
Who's to blame for not standing up for them when it was not in style?
If hope is the color of a man
The color of love is the color that can stand for something
Lo lo lo lo lo lo lo lo
That means trouble from the other side
Lo lo lo lo lo lo lo lo
Maybe trouble of a hopeful heart
Maybe trouble of a hopeful heart, hopeful heart
It could be a hopeful heart
Hopeful heart, hopeful heart, hopeful heart
