Norman's Kitchen – Randy Stonehill

歌詞

I got stoned in Norman's kitchen, We was talking 'bout the facts of life, that's right, He asked me was I happy as I reached for the butter knife, I said "No," and I made a sandwich, And I poured myself a cup of tea, When that cat started praying the Spirit fell on me, (Wait a minute – I didn't even know that chord back then) I got up to use the bathroom, I said, "Excuse me please," But I couldn't help from laughing and I felt shaky in the knees, As I leaned against the mirror my heart let out a sigh, Like something heavy left me, and I opened up my eyes. I can see, I am free, And I'm who I want to be, Mercy me, mercy me, Mercy me, Whoa yeah, Mercy me. I was born in dusty Stockton and I grew up in San Jose, But I never started living until I learned to pray, Now my parents, they ignore me, They say I've gotten strange, But when you're touched by Heaven you know that something's bound to change. I can see, I am free, And I'm who I want to be, Mercy me, mercy me, Mercy me, Yeah, ooh, Well, I can see, I am free, And I'm who I want to be, Mercy me, mercy me, Mercy me, Yes, yes, I can see, oh yeah, I can be free now, And I can the me I want to be now, yeah, Mercy, mercy, mercy me, Mercy me, I'll talk about J.C., Yeah, I can see, I am free, And I'm who I want to be, Mercy me, mercy me, Mercy me, He poured his mercy on me, I can see, I am free, Yeah, and I'm who I want to be, Mercy me, mercy me. Mercy me, Oh yeah, Mercy me, Oh, mercy me, Hey, yeah, yeah. That's right, And the dogs say amen.
