Only The Lord Knows

(album: You Are Not Alone - 2010)

When I get feeling, hurting and reeling
It's so sad, I go to bed
I stare at the ceiling, I dream about dreaming
Woke up this morning, shaking my head

I pick up the paper, I put down the paper
Turn on the TV, I get confused
People on this side say the people on that side
They lying, say they lying, everybody's confused

What can you do, what can you do
When you can't trust anybody
To tell you the truth
Can't trust 'em can't trust 'em
What to do, what to do now
Only the Lord knows and He ain't you

I talk to my teacher, I talk to my deacon
Talk to my sister, talk to my friends
Hit by the wheeling, hit by the dealing
Hit by the feeling, it's outta my hands

What can you do, what can you do
When you can't trust anybody
To tell you the truth
Can't trust 'em, can't trust 'em
What to do, what to do, y'all
Only the Lord knows and He ain't you

What can you do, what can you do
When you can't trust anybody
To tell you the truth
Can't trust 'em, can't trust 'em
What to do, what to do now
Only the Lord knows and He ain't you

I pick up the paper, I put down the paper
Turn on the TV, I get confused
People on this side say the people on that side
They lying, say they lying, everybody's confused

What can you do, what can you do
When you can't trust anybody
To tell you the truth
Can't trust 'em, can't trust 'em
What to do, what to do now
Only the Lord knows, He ain't you
Only the Lord knows and He ain't you
