Shout, Sister, Shout! Lyrics

Shout, sister, shout
Shout, sister, shout
Shout, sister, shout
Tell the whole world what it's all about

Now, listen everybody, to the precious words
I'm gonna do some chirping and I ain't no bird

There's a reason for living
A reason for dying
A darned good reason why a woman starts crying
A reason for a mole
A reason for a dimple
But there ain't no reason why a man's so simple

(Shout, sister, shout) Yeah
(Shout, sister, shout) I'm tellin' you
(Shout, sister, shout) Yeah
Tell the whole world what it's all about

There's a way to be brilliant
A way to be a fool
A way to get to heaven
Observe the golden rule
A way to get a sweetheart
A way to get a wife
But the day you quit me, brother, that's the day you lose your life

(Shout, sister, shout) Yeah
(Shout, sister, shout) Oh, boy
(Shout, sister, shout) Yeah
Tell the whole world what it's all about

There's a reason for a mountain
A reason for a hill
A reason why a doctor gives a patient a pill
A reason to dance
A reason to sing
But there ain't no reason why a band can't swing

I can understand the birds
And I can understand the bees
Sister, I can even understand why a rat eats cheese
I can understand my dog
And I can understand your cat
Well, fill me full of rhythm
Can you understand that?
I got you covered, sister

(Shout, sister, shout) Hallelujah
(Shout, sister, shout) Hallelujah
(Shout, sister, shout) Hallelujah
Tell the whole world what it's all about

I'm gonna shout
I'm gonna shout
I'm gonna shout it out
And tell the world what it's all about
