With My Maker I Am One Lyrics

Eric Bibb With My Maker I Am One

I am the preacher - shoutin' out the news
I am the juke stomper - playin' the blues
I am the Holy Roller - givin' Jesus my cares

I am the candy man - pushin' my wares
I am the cowboy - brandin' my steers
I am the Cherokee brave - on the Trail Of Tears
I am the master - whip in my hand
I am the slave - from a distant land

After all is said an' done - with my Maker I am One
I am the Okie - on a dusty road
I am the banker - with the tailor-made clothes
I am the hobo - in a cold boxcar
I am the railroad baron - with the long cigar

I am the ghetto brother - 'bout to lose his lease
I am the landlord - cuttin' of the heat
I am the prisoner - playin' cards
I am the warden - lokkin' out on the yard

After all is said an' done - with my Maker I am One

I am the doctor - savin' the sick
I am the junkie - gravin' a fix
I am the homeless child - on streets so mean
I am the movie star - on the silver screen

I am the champion - on the finish line
I am the beggar - holdin' up the sign
I am the rookie - tryin' to make the Hall Òf Fame
I am the gangster - fixin' the game

After all is said an' done - with my Maker I am One
After all is said an' done - with my Maker I am One
