Richard Dimples Fields - If It Ain't One Thing It's Another Lyrics
I'm making this song for all the people who at times in their lives feel badYou know when you feel like even your blues have bluesIf it ain't one thing it's anotherIf it ain't one thing it's anotherIt's a crazy mixed up world, it's a dog eat dog worldLife is full strife, people just aren't niceEverybody's talking smack, Running games on this and thatRacial resenment adds to this contentmentTalk to any guy he'll tell you taxes are too highBooks movies are corrupt, suicide is way upKids are a sorry lot, some folks say it's kind of potPhoney ego trips, everyone has flippedIf it ain't one thing it's anotherIf it ain't one thing it's anotherEverybody's shacking up, married folks are packing upCountry's going up in smoke, Where is Noah with his boatBlacks marching on dc, 400 years still not freeMartin paid all a man can pay, still he's not a holidayFolks messing with my mind, make me FrankensteinThis woman by my side, she's Dr. Jeckyl Mr. HydeCan't get my head on right, problems day and nightTry to calm my nerves I've tried smoke, Doctors give me dope to copeIf it ain't one thing it's anotherIf it ain't one thing it's anotherIf it ain't one thing it's anotherMy funky two bit job went on strikeI've put up with a lot of crap I don't likeAnd to add to my woes, this ugly woman named Sadie called and said she's having my babyGo have mercyFrom my day of birth I've called hell on earthA number is all I am, ain't got no frills don't give a...If you don't got no pull, you've got to put up with a lot of bullThis funky world is cold, I oughta flush myself down the...If it ain't one thing it's anotherIf it ain't one thing it's anotherIf it ain't one thing it's anotherIf it ain't one thing it's anotherMy friends, I wonder if it's ok if I talk to you this eveningA long time ago my old grandmother bless her heartUsed to sit me on her knee and pull out her Good Book,And she said my son, my child, don't you ever get to grown, to famous, to rich to forget the man upstairsAnd she used to turn to Matthew chapter 24, and there the disciples would talking to the masterAnd they said Lord tell us what will be the sign of your comingAnd the end to all this confusion on EarthAnd the Good Lord said, my children watch out that nobody deceive youFor the last days, there'll be lots of tribulation, wars, and faminesAnd earthquakes on different places on the EarthAnd there will be no understanding among the people of the EarthHe said but as you see these things occuring,Don't become too discouraged, just lift yours head up highBecause your deliverence is getting nearerAnd he spoke about the proclamation about coming kingdom or goverment of godThat will eventually take over this Earth and rule over the whole EarthAnd turning to Daniel chapter two,And there Daniel describes that this kingdom won't be an earthly kingdomBut it will be ruled by GodNote in the book of Revelations it talksAbout how there will be a man who'll be JesusAnd whose faithful 144, 000 who would bring all of mankind back to perfectionAw, somebody out there knows exactly what I'm talking aboutIssiah, Issiah, a long time ago said I see old people growing young againI see lame people running and leaping just like a gazeelleAnd blind people will see againAnd we won't have to worry about our children going out to play at nightThey'll be able to play with a snake, brotherhoodThere'll be brotherhood and peace and tranqulaity on the earthAw it makes me feel good when I read over in RevelationsThat it say God would wipe out every tear from my eyesYeah that's in Revelations chapter 21,Why don't you pick up a Good Book and read all about it for yourselvesAnd my friends I don't know if I'll ever see you againLife is certainly uncertain these daysI'm sure you'll agree to thatBut keep dreaming the big dreamGet down on your knees and ask the big guy in the sky for his spirit to sustain youAnd pray for me, I'll be praying for you.
