Keeper Of The Castle Lyrics - Legenden Des Soul - Four Tops

Lay me down 

there's a lot of us been pushed around 

red or yellow, black or white and brown 

with a tear of their own 

oh, can't you see 

while you're picking on society 

that believes on your family tree 

calling you to come home 

Chorus: 

you're the keeper of the castle 

so be a father to your children 

a provider of all their daily needs 

like a sovereign lord protector 

be their best friend, please direct them 

and they'll do well to follow where you lead 

Oh, in your head 

you don't believe what the good book says 

you're gonna strike out [?] instead 

cause the world's been unkind 

but through thick and thin 

whatever shape your heart is in 

you only have one next of kin 

better keep 'em in mind 

Chorus: 

you're the keeper of the castle 

so be a good man to your lady 

the creator of the sunshine in her day 

in the garden that you seeded 

be a friend when a friend is needed 

you won't have to look the other way 

Lay me down 

there's a lot of us been pushed around 

red or yellow, black or white and brown 

with a tear of their own 

oh, can't you see 

while you're picking on society 

that believes your family tree 

a beggin' you to come on home 

Lay me down 

there's a lot of us been pushed around 

red or yellow, black or white and brown 

with a tear of their own 

in your head 

you don't believe what the good book says (fade)
