Awake My Body - Alex Ebert

Hey mama, eh mama, eh mama, hey

Hey mama, eh mama, eh mama, hey

Body

Awake my body

You can’t turn your cheek

When you’re falling asleep

And you’re cold

Awake my body

They took me to the station

Dropped me on my knees

Ask me my vocation

I’ll tell you if you please

I trained my toes in tapping

Specializing in concrete

A day you won’t believe just happened

I heard a voice that came to me

It said «my body, my toes

My heart, my skin, my nose

My organs for you to play»

Now I believe believer will lead to healer

Yes, now we have all our faith

Come on, take me.

All the way

Hey mama, eh mama, eh mama, hey

Hey mama, eh mama, eh mama, hey

Body

Awake my body

Don’t hide my eyes

I wanna see

Don’t hide my ears

I wanna hear

Don’t hide my tongue

From anyone

I wanna tell, heaven and hell

I won’t hide my heart

It won’t break apart

I know they’ll be sharing

They’ll be sharing all the way (all the way)

Awake now

Body awake now

Awake now

Body awake

Awake now

Body awake now

Ah see them caring

See them sharing

All the way, all the way

Hey mama, eh mama, eh mama, hey

Hey mama, eh mama, eh mama, hey

Body

Awake my body

You can’t turn your cheek

When you’re falling asleep

And you’re cold

Awake my body

Be hold

All the way
