Lyrics The Kelly Family

The Kelly Family

Carry My Soul

Nena Nena Nena Tereze

Nena Nena Nena Tereze

Yeah he, ho my name is Jimmy beep beereep beeb beeb

Whatever you want to call me

You know like the birds fly in the air

That's how I want to be

Free, free, free

I've been trying all my life to break free

It's like a big bad fight that never ends

You know what I'm saying

First I was a soldier

Then I was a rebel

Then a runaway, and I've been running ever since

But it's like everything is in my way,

Everything, even my head, my body

A drop in the sea caused a flood

quenching man's drought

You did it to me, to my thirsty heart

With your tender touch

Nena Nena Nena Tereze

Nena Nena Nena Tereze

Yeah like a drop in the sea, that's how I feel sometimes

Like I'm stuck in the traffic or something

But I wasn't gonna let that be

I made a plan

I worked hard, I had a TV, I had a car, I had a house

I was a man with a job, you know

You know I had all those things

But then I broke down one day

And I lost it all

I came rolling down that mountain

A pencil in the hands of almighty love

Where the ink won't dry

Is writing the names of poor men dying

In his angel's arms

Nena Nena Nena Tereze

Nena Nena Nena Tereze

Yeah I lost it all, and like magic I was free

When no one spoke to me

When no one cared for me

That's the day I started singing this song

And this is how it goes:

Carry my soul, Carry my soul, Carry my soul, Carry my soul

Carry my soul, Carry my soul, Carry my soul, Carry my soul

Carry my soul

Nena Nena Nena Tereze ...

Yeah! That's the song of the free

I don't want to fight no more

I feel we where made for something big

Just let the wind blow

Nena Nena Nena Tereze ...

You did it to me

My thirsty hearth

Yeah, just let the wind blow

Nena Nena Nena Tereze ...

Blessed are the poor

Oh Almighty Love
