Blood Harmony Lyrics

God gave mama a singin' voice
Mama passed it down to me
Always with me, near my heart
Beat in rhythm with her melody

More than flesh, more than bone
When you sing I don't sing alone

I said, "Y'all know what I need
Lay it back on the top of the beat"
I said, "Y'all know what I need
C'mon and clap your hands and stomp your feet"
If you can count to four
You don't need a-nothin' more
Help me make that chord
There's nothing quite like blood harmony
Oh, blood harmony
Oh, oh

Blackbird singin' for herself
She got wings to bear her far away
The night surrenders to the dawn
Still, I can hear the blackbird song

More than flesh, more than bone
When you sing I don't sing alone

I said, "Y'all know what I need
Lay it back on the top of the beat"
I said, "Y'all know what I need
C'mon and clap your hands and stomp your feet"
If you can count to four
You don't need a-nothin' more
Help me make that chord
There's nothing quite like blood harmony
Oh, blood harmony
Oh, oh

It's gonna roll, roll like a river
Rhythm gonna set you free
You got soul
Stand and deliver
Shake that family tree
It's gonna roll, roll like a river
Rhythm gonna set you free
You got a soul
Stand and deliver
Shake that family tree

I say, "Y'all know what I need
C'mon and lay it back on the top of the beat"
I said, "Y'all know what I need
C'mon and clap those hands and stomp those feet"
If you can count to four
You don't need a nothin' more
Help me make that chord
There's nothing quite like blood harmony
Oh, Blood harmony
Oh, oh
