Saved

I used to smoke, I used to drink

I used to smoke, and drink

And dance the bugaloo

I used to smoke and drink

Smoke and drink and dance the bugaloo, yes I did

But now I'm standin' on these corners

Prayin' for me and you, yes I am

(That's why) I'm saved, I'm saved

People let me tell you 'bout kingdom come

I'm saved, (I said) I'm saved

How can I preach until you're deaf and dumb

I'm in that soul sayin' army

Beatin' on my big bass drum, yes I am

I used to cuss and I used to fuss

I used to cuss, fuss and boogie all night long

I used to cuss and fuss

Cuss and fuss and boogie all night long

You know I did

But now I'm standin' on this corner

I know right from wrong, yes I did

(That's why) I'm saved, I'm saved

People let me tell you 'bout kingdom come

I'm saved, (I said) I'm saved

How can I preach until you're deaf and dumb

I'm in that soul sayin' army

Beatin' on my big bass drum, yes I am

I used to lie and I used to cheat

I used to lie and cheat and step on people's feet

I used to lie and cheat

Lie and cheat and step on people's feet

You know that I did

But now I'm steppin' on to glory

Salvation is my best, yes it is, because

(That's why) I'm saved, I'm saved

People let me tell you 'bout kingdom come

I'm saved, (I said) I'm saved

How can I preach until you're deaf and dumb

I'm in that soul sayin' army

Beatin' on my big bass drum, yes I am

That's why I'm saved, I'm saved

I'm saved, Lord, have mercy, I am saved

I'm saved, I'm saved, I am saved

I'm in that soul savin' army

Beatin' on my big bass drum, yes I am

I said I'm saved, yes, I'm saved

Lord, Lord, Lord, Lord, Lord, I am saved
