Loves Me Like A Rock
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
When I was a little boy
(When I was just a boy)
And the devil would call my name
(When I was just a boy)
I'd say: Now who do
(Who?)
Who do you think you're fooling?
I'm a concentrated boy
(I'm a concentrated boy)
I'm a singer in a Sunday choir
My mama loves me, she loves me
She gets down on her knees and hugs me
She loves me like a rock
She rocks me like the rock of ages
And she loves me
She loves me, loves me, loves me, loves me
When I was grown to be a man
(Grown to be a man)
And the devil would call my name
(Grown to be a man)
I'd say: Now who do
(Who?)
Who do you think you're fooling?
(Who do you think you're fooling?)
I'm aconsummated man
I can snatch a little purity
My mama loves me, she loves me
She gets down on her knees and hugs me
She loves me like a rock
She rocks me like the rock of ages
And she loves me
She loves me, loves me, loves me, loves me
If I was President
(Was the President)
And the Congress called my name
(Was the President)
I'd say: Who do
(Who?)
Who do you think you're fooling?
(Who do you think you're fooling?)
I've got the Presidential Seal
I'm up on the Presidential Podium
My mama loves me, she loves me
She gets down on her knees and hugs me
And she loves me like a rock
She rocks me like the rock of ages
And she loves me
She loves me, love me like a rock
