Said I Wasn't Gonna Tell Nobody

Well you know I said I wasn't gonna tell nobody, but I
(Couldn't keep it to myself)
Oh, I (couldn't keep it to myself)
Couldn't keep it to myself (couldn't keep it to myself)
You know I said I wasn't gonna tell nobody, but I
(Couldn't keep it to myself), oh Lord
What the Lord has done for me (ay, Lordy)

You know I said I wasn't gonna shout for joy, but I
(Couldn't keep it to myself)
Oh, I (couldn't keep it to myself)
Ooh, I (couldn't keep it to myself)
You know I said I wasn't gonna shout for joy, but I
(Couldn't keep it to myself)
Oh, what the Lord has done for me

You ought to be there (you ought to be there)
When He saved my soul (saved my soul)
You ought to be there (you ought to be there)
When He put my name (name on the roll)
Don't you know that I (started walking)
That I (started talking)
Oh, I (started singing)
Oh, I (started shouting)
(About what the Lord has done for me) has done for me

Come on, help me now
Ay, I said I wasn't gonna testify, but I (yeah)
(Couldn't keep it to myself)
Oh, I (couldn't keep it to myself), oh I
Can't keep it to myself (couldn't keep it to myself)
I said I wasn't gonna testify, but I
(Couldn't keep it to myself), go ahead
Ay, what the Lord has done for me (ay, Lordy)

Oh, you ought to be there (you ought to be there)
When He saved my soul (saved my soul)
You ought to be there (you ought to be there)
When He put my name (name on the roll)
Oh, I (started walking)
I (started talking)
I (started singing)
I (started shouting)
(About what the Lord has done for me) has done for me (oh Lordy)

You ought to be there (you ought to be there)
When He saved my soul (saved my soul)
You ought to be there (you ought to be there)
When He put my name (name on the roll)
Oh, that I (started walking)
I (started talking)
I (started singing)
Oh, I (started shouting)
(About what the Lord has done for me) has done for me

One more time
Oh, that I (started walking)
I (started talking)
I (started singing)
Oh, I (started shouting)
(About what the Lord has done for me), has done for me

Oh, that I (started walking)
I (started talking)
Oh, I (started singing)
I (started shouting)
(About what the Lord has done for me), has done for me (yeah)
