Eyesight to the Blind (The Hawker) Lyrics

[Instrumental Intro]

[Verse 1]
You talk about your woman, I wish you could see mine
Yeah, you talk about your woman, I wish you could see mine
Every time she starts to lovin', she brings eyesight to the blind

[Verse 2]
You know her daddy gave her magic
I can tell by the way she walks
Her daddy gave her magic
I can tell by the way she walks
Every time she starts to shakin', the dumb begin to talk

[Instrumental Bridge]

[Verse 3]
She's got the power to heal you, never fear
Oh, she's got the power to heal you, never fear
Just a word from her lips and the deaf begin to hear
