Julie Christensen - Following a Sign Lyrics

I stood up in church one Sunday prophesyin' a storm to come
I stood up in church one Sunday prophesyin' a storm to come
Monday morning lightnin' stuck the doubters dumb
When the preacher kicked me out
Threw a thumb up for a ride
$20 bill in my bible
Watchin' them cars just blow on by
I keep holding on to the sweet divine
Get there how I can
Following a sign

Meridian to Memphis, like a dog in the back of a truck
Meridian to Memphis, ridin' like a dog in the back of a truck
Through a stranger's kindness, saw St. Louis from a bus
There's tuna fish and crackers pocket knife in a calico skirt
Blade it came out shinin' when that boy tried to feel up under my shirt
I keep holdin' on to the sweet divine
Get there how I can following a sign

Ever since I can remember I've seen angels in the air
Heard voices in the wind
Grace is everywhere

Chicago December
South Cicero somewhere
Chicago December
South Cicero somewhere
ask a lady in a doorway
Is anybody sick in there

She led me to a room
Daughter lay shakin' on the bed
Sweat poured off my hands when I laid em upon her head
And I prayed like I pray In every town I'm driftin' through
She just blinked three times and stood up well as me or you
I keep holdin' on to the sweet divine
Get there how I can following a sign
Chicago December South Cicero somewhere
