Lyrics

Brother's Keeper

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.

"Now the plummer's got a drip in his spigot

The mechanic's got a clank in his car

And the preacher's thinking thoughts that are wicked

And the lover's got a lonely heart

My friends ain't the way I wish they were

They are just the way they are

And I will be my brother's keeper

Not the one who judges him

I won't despise him for his weakness

I won't regard him for his strength

I won't take away his freedom

I will help him learn to stand

And I will ~ I will be my brother's keeper

Now this roof has got a few missing shingles

But at least we got ourselves a roof

And they say that she's a fallen angel

I wonder if she recalls when she last flew

There's no point in pointing fingers

Unless you're pointing to the truth

And I will be my brother's keeper

Not the one who judges him

I won't despise him for his weakness

I won't regard him for his strength

I won't take away his freedom

I will help him learn to stand

And I will ~ I will be my brother's keeper

I will be my brother's keeper

Not the one who judges him

I won't despise him for his weakness

I won't regard him for his strength

I won't take away his freedom

I will help him learn to stand

And I will ~ I will be my brother's keeper"
