Shout, Sister, Shout! - Sister Rosetta Tharpe
Written by：Arthur Crudup
Shout sister shout
Shout sister shout
Shout sister shout
Tell the whole world what it's all about
Now listen everybody to the precious words
I'm gonna do some chirping
And I ain't no bird
There's a reason for living
A reason for dying
A darned good reason why a woman starts crying
A reason for a mole a reason for a dimple
But there ain't no reason why a man's so simple
Shout sister shout yeah
Shout sister shout I'm tellin'you
Shout sister shout yeah
Tell the whole world what it's all about
There's a way to be brilliant
A way to be a fool
A way to get to heaven
Observe the golden rule
A way to get a sweetheart
A way to get a wife
But the day you quit me brother
That's the day you lose your life
Shout sister shout yeah
Shout sister shout oh boy
Shout sister shout yeah
Tell the whole world what it's all about
There's a reason for a mountain
A reason for a hill
A reason why a doctor
Gives a patient a pill
A reason to stand
A reason to sing
But there ain't no reason
Why a man can't swing
I can understand the birds
And I can understand the bees
Sister I can even understand
Why a rat eats cheese
I can understand my dog
And I can understand your cat
Well fill me full o'rhythm
Can you understand that
I gotcha covered sister
Sister shout hallelujah
Shout sister shout hallelujah
Shout sister shout hallelujah
Tell the whole world what it's all about
I'm gonna shoooo ut
I'm gonna shoooo ut
I'm gonna shout it out
And tell the world what it's all about
