Lyric Hands
Ooh ... ooh ...
Ho ...
Ah ho ho ho ah ...
Oh ...
There s a man outside my door tonight
He cries for help, he sings a pleadin song
The times are tough for everyone
Gotta hold on to what I got, and just kinda cruise along
Well, I do
Want to be helpful
But it s cold and I m told
You can t be too careful
Out of the mouth of a mother
And into the hands of a brother
And into the heart of a lover
And out of the hands of another
Do do do do do
You can never tell who your neighbour is
Or what he s doin tonight
Or who his friends are
Well, you don t know where he s from
Or where he?s been, or who he knows
You know you can t be too careful
These days
Well, I do
Want to be helpful
Well but it s cold and I m told
It might just be the devil
Out of the mouth of a mother
And into the hands of a brother (do do do do do)
Into the heart of a lover
And out of the hands of another
Well, I don t take chances
And I don t take time to see
And I don t take nothin from nobody
No way, not me
Do do do do do
Ho ah ...
Do do do do do do do
Out of the mouth of a mother
And into the hands of a brother (do do do do do)
Into the heart of a lover
And out of the hands of another (do do do do do)
Out of the mouth of a mother
Ho ...
And into the hands of a brother (do do do do do)
Into the heart of a lover
Ho ...
And out of the hands of a child
Into the eyes of a child
Into the ears of a child
Into the heart of a child
Do do do do do
Into the heart of a child
Do do do do do
Into the heart of a child
Ho ...
Ah ho ho ho ah ...
Oh ...
