SINGER: Otis Redding

SONG:Direct Me

Lord knows i'm an atom
Broken into pieces
I am you, i am him, i am her, i am me
Talk to me, my friends
Before this civilization ends
Tell me you got hope
So mine increases
Lord knows i'm an atom
All of me is scattered
I am you, i am him, i am her, i am me
Talk to me, my friends
Before this civilization ends
Tell me you got hope
So mine ain't shattered
America, america
She broke away from africa
Europe and america, joined then set adrift
Continents are fragile
As the tissue paper on a baby's birthday gift
Lord knows i'm an atom
At the end of my tether
I am you, i am him, i am her, i am me
Talk to me, my friends
Before this civilization ends
Tell me you got hope
So we can sing together
We are many continents
All of us are friends
Can't we make amends
Before this civilization ends
Broken into pieces
Help the rift to close
I am just an atom
Lord in heaven knows
Talk to me, my friends
Before this civilization ends
Tell me you got hope
So we can sing together
America, america, america, america, america, america
