In this life by The Strumbellas

I know the season's ain't been changing

And everyday it looks like rain

But I keep hoping for that sun

The streets are filled with demons

Lord that's thats never gonna change

But I still wanna be with everyone

I know there's something for you out there in this life

I know there's something for you out there in this life

The rivers are getting low

And the skyscrapers all cover the town

But I still work until the day's done

The people all dressed in black

And all the cars they look the same

But I got nowhere left to run

I know there's something for you out there in this life

I know there's something for you out there in this life

I know there's something waiting for us in the light

I know there's something waiting for us in the light

Oh they're dancing through the darkness of the night

Oh they're dancing through the darkness of the night

Oh they're dancing through the darkness

Oh they're dancing through the darkness

Oh they're dancing through the darkness of the night

I know there's something for you out there in this life

I know there's something for you out there in this life

I know there's something for you out there in this life

I know there's something for you out there in this life

People Get Ready by Eva Cassidy (written by Curtis Mayfield)

People, get ready

There's a train a-coming

You don't need no ticket

You just get on board

All you need is faith

To hear the diesels humming

Don't need no ticket

You just thank the Lord

People get ready

For the train to Jordan

Picking up passengers

From coast to coast

Faith is the key

Open the doors and board them

There's room for all

Amongst the loved the most

There ain't no room

For the hopeless sinner

Who would hurt all mankind

Just to save his own

Have pity on those

Whose chances are thinner

'Cause there's no hiding place

From the kingdom's throne

So people get ready

For the train a-comin'

You don't need no ticket

You just get on board

All you need is faith

To hear the diesels humming

Don't need no ticket

You just thank the Lord

I'm getting ready

I'm getting ready

This time I'm ready

This time I'm ready

I'm getting ready

Getting ready, oh yeah

I'm getting ready, yes I am
