Fair Play

Well I did not lose a nickel on the hard times you gave me
And I don’t necessarily need anybody to save me
I’m a little bit shy of an answer
But I know it’s lyin’ here someplace
I wouldn’t doubt staring me right in the face

Hallelujah, I just caught my breath today
And I was runnin’, runnin’ every step of the way
Glory be I just caught that tune today
And I believe but I ain’t got nothin’ to say

Well I heard it was gonna’ get better
And that bright light was gonna’ shine
Well if it does I sure hope I get mine

And I heard that the angel of mercy
Was gonna’ give us a break real soon
I just hope I can hang on until she do

Hallelujah, I just caught my breath today
And I was runnin’, runnin’ every step of the way
Glory be I just caught that tune today
And I believe but I ain’t got nothin’ to say
