Текст песни Higher Ground - Etta James

One, two
One, two, three
I say, people keep on learnin'
Soldiers, keep on warrin'
World, keep on turnin'
'Cause it won't be too long
Oh, no
Powers, keep on lyin'
While your people, they keep on dyin'
And world, keep right on turnin'
'Cause it won't be too long
It won't be too long
I'm so darn glad He let me try it again
My last time on Earth I lived a whole world of sin
I'm so glad I know more than I knew then
Gonna keep on tryin'
'Til I reach my highest ground
My highest ground
Teachers keep on teachin'
Oh-oh, preachers keep on preachin'
Hey world, keep right on turnin'
'Cause it won't be too long
Woah-oh, no
I said, lovers keep on lovin'
And believers keep right on believin'
Sleepers, hey, just stop sleepin'
'Cause it won't be too long
Won't be too long
I'm so glad that He let me try it again
My last time on Earth I lived a whole world of sin
I'm so glad I know more than I knew then
Gonna keep on tryin'
'Til I reach my highest ground
Reach my highest ground
No one's gonna bring me down
Reach my highest ground
Nobody's gonna bring me down
God is gonna show you higher ground
He's the only friend you have around
Reach my highest ground
Gonna reach my highest ground
God is the only friend you get around
Reach my highest ground
Let nobody bring me down
'Til you reach your highest ground
No one's gonna bring you down
Reach your highest ground
