EDWIN HAWKINS SINGERS - OH HAPPY DAY

Oh Happy Day

Oh, Edwin
we rejoice your passage to the Upper Room
Oh, Happy Day
for all of us in the Bay, Oaktown
City of Resistance
Qur'an says After difficulty comes ease
Oh Happy Day
Sixteen Crucified Saviors walked
on water
peace be still
oh happy day
Jesus walked
Isa Ibn Mar'yam
Isa Ibn Yusef
Oh happy day
Frankie Beverly say
joy pain same
oh happy day
after difficulty comes ease
no cross no crown
sweat equity
Santa Rita jail
holding cell sleep head by toilet
strip butt naked time after time
hold nuts cough
top ramen money
no cigarettes
hungry hustle food day night
communal meal top ramen casserole doritoes bologna
everybody share
Oh happy day
down dungeon
If mind ain't in prison
you ain't in prison!
Oh happy day!
Some out here in the big yard in mental prison, lockdown. Wake up, stay woke!
Oh happy day!
Jesus walked
Oh happy day
washed my sins away
Isa Ibn Mar'yam
Isa Ibn Yusef.
