Amen lyrics
by Otis Redding



A-amen, uh
A-amen, uh
A-amen, amen, amen
With the horns, now

Amen
With the rhythm now

A-amen
A-amen
A-amen, amen, amen
Everybody now

A-amen
A-amen, yeah
A-amen, amen, amen
He let me tell you

This little life of mine
I'm gonna let it shine
This little life of mine
I'm gonna let it shine, yeah, yeah

This little life of mine
I'm gonna let it shine
Let it shine, let it shine
To show my love

One thing my papa used to say, he said that

"Even in my home, son, I said: "What, dad?"
"I'm gonna let it shine, let me tell you"
Said: "Even in your home, son
You got to let your little light shine, yeah huh

Even in your home, son, ha
You've got to let it shine
Just let it shine, just let it shine
To show your love"

And then I said: "Daddy, help me sing this line one time"

A-amen, will you help me?
A-amen, huh, with a feeling
A-a-amen, amen, amen
Everybody together now

A-amen, little louder now
A-amen, everybody say
A-amen, amen, amen

Amen
