Preacher (iTunes Session) - OneRepublic
Lyrics by：Ryan Tedder/Brent Kutzle
Composed by：Ryan Tedder/Brent Kutzle
When I was a kid
I used to buy and sell gravity
I knew how to fly
And I would teach you for a fee
Broke every window
In my hotel heart
When I was only five years old the twelve years scarred
And I'd hear the same voice
Echo in my mind
Said son you got an angel
To chase the devil at night
When I was a kid
My grandfather was a preacher
He'd talk about God
Yeah he was something like a teacher
He said God only helps those
Who learn to help themselves
He was a million miles from a million dollars
But you can never spend his wealth
I took a little faith
And put it in a parking lot
I drove to a strange town
Full of have and have nots
And as I walk through that storybook life
I'll be looking for an angel to chase the devil at the night
Oh oh oh
When I was a kid
My grandfather was a preacher
He'd talk about love
Yeah he was something like a teacher
He said God only helps those
Who learn to help themselves
He was a million miles from a million dollars
But you can never spend his wealth
Wave
Put your hands up and hands down
Wave
Put your hands up and hands down
Wave
Put your hands up and hands down
When I was a kid
My grandfather was a preacher
He'd talk about life
Something like a teacher
He said God only helps those
Who learn to help themselves
He was a million miles from a million dollars
But you can never spend his wealth
When I was a kid
I used to buy and sell gravity
When I was a kid
When I was a kid
My grandfather was a preacher
