Testify
There was a girl named April
Livin' in a Texas town
Boy that girl loved the Lord
Oh she was proud
She got up on Sunday
Eager to praise his name
When it came down to it
There wasn't nothin' she could play
Oh she just need
Oh she just want, want, want yeah -
All the people jump to their feet
Kickin it off to the gospel beat
Everybody in the whole crowd
Everybody jumpin up and down
Feel it down into your soul
So close you almost lose control
Filled with hope you just can't deny
Makes you wanna testify
She don't like the guitar
Couldn't get the fingering
She don't like the horn
And oh, what a sound it made
She liked all that noise
She tried the tambourine
Girl couldn't get it going
And she damn sure, damn sure couldn't sing
Oh she just need
Oh she just want, want, want yeah -
All the people jump to their feet
Kickin it off to the gospel beat
Everybody in the whole crowd
Everybody jumpin up and down
Feel it down into your soul
So close you almost lose control
Filled with hope you just can't deny
Makes you wanna testify
She would dance all over town
Until the day we laid her down
We'd think of her,
How she would laugh -
We all stand up to dance
Oh she just need
Oh she just want, want, want yeah -
All the people jump to their feet
Kickin it off to the gospel beat
Everybody in the whole crowd
Everybody jumpin up and down
Feel it down into your soul
So close you almost lose control
Filled with hope you just can't deny
Makes you wanna Testify
She just want to Testify
She just need
She just want to Testify
She just need
Livin' in a Texas town
Boy that girl loved the Lord
Oh she was proud
She got up on Sunday
Eager to praise his name
When it came down to it
There wasn't nothin' she could play
Oh she just need
Oh she just want, want, want yeah -
All the people jump to their feet
Kickin it off to the gospel beat
Everybody in the whole crowd
Everybody jumpin up and down
Feel it down into your soul
So close you almost lose control
Filled with hope you just can't deny
Makes you wanna testify
She don't like the guitar
Couldn't get the fingering
She don't like the horn
And oh, what a sound it made
She liked all that noise
She tried the tambourine
Girl couldn't get it going
And she damn sure, damn sure couldn't sing
Oh she just need
Oh she just want, want, want yeah -
All the people jump to their feet
Kickin it off to the gospel beat
Everybody in the whole crowd
Everybody jumpin up and down
Feel it down into your soul
So close you almost lose control
Filled with hope you just can't deny
Makes you wanna testify

Until the day we laid her down

Kickin it off to the gospel beat
Everybody in the whole crowd
Everybody jumpin up and down
Feel it down into your soul
So close you almost lose control
Filled with hope you just can't deny
Makes you wanna Testify
She just want to Testify
She just need
She just want to Testify
She just need
