Oh me, oh my
Oh me, oh my
Oh me, oh my (Oh)
Oh me, oh my

[Verse 1: Lonnie Holley]
You must please listen
Because sometime it's alright
To wander a little deeper
I suggest you all go as deep as you can
Because I, I believe
The deeper we go
The more chances there are
For us to understand
Understand the "oh me"s
Understand the "oh my"s

Oh me
Oh my
Oh me
Oh my

Sometime I sit alone in the corner
As tears roll down from my eyes
I let 'em fall, I'll let 'em fall
I will let them fall

(Oh me, oh my)
(Oh me) Oh me, (oh my) oh my
(Oh me) Oh me, yeah, (oh my) oh my
(Oh me, oh my) Oh my

Every now and then we get a chance
To show our abilities
I remember when I was a little, bitty boy
Is there was this song
Lift every voice and sing
But as we grow and we learn each other
more and more and more
We learn how precious life is
The "oh me" and "oh my" turns into the "oh us"
Oh-oh-oh-oh, ah

I thought about how grandmama used to be down on her knees
How mama used to not able to get up
off her knees after giving birth to
Baby after baby after baby after baby
And now I understand why she say these words
"Oh me" (Oh me) and "oh my" (oh my)
In a graceful manner and a thankful way (Oh me)
Every day that we had (Oh my)

(Oh me, oh my)
(Oh me) Oh me, yeah, (oh my) oh my
(Oh me) Oh me, (oh my) oh my
(Oh me, oh my)
