Tell It All, Brother - Kenny Rogers, The First Edition

Tell it all brother, before we fall

Tell it all brothers and sisters

Tell it all

How much you’re holding back on me

When you say you’re giving all?

And in the dungeons of your mind

Who you got chained to the wall?

Tell it all brother, before we fall

Tell it all brothers and sisters

Tell it all

Did you plant your feet on higher ground

To avoid life’s mud and stone?

Did you ever kick a good man

When he was down, just to make yourself feel strong?

Tell it all brother, before we fall

Tell it all brothers and sisters

Tell it all

Tomorrow just might be too late

Now is the time

To get your jumbled mind straight

And seek a new design

Did you ever walk before a crippled man

Pretending you were lame?

And what made you think one feeble hymn to God

Was gonna make him call your name?

Tell it all brother and sisters

Tell, Tell it all

Tell it all brother, before we fall

Tell it all brothers and sisters, tell

Tell it all brother, before we fall

Tell it all…
