Notes About The Poem

Lord Satisfy Me--

Lord, I'm thirsty but I won't,
drink the waters;
Have mercy Lord satisfy me;

O I'm crying Lord, God 
But I won't take a towel
O God I'm crying and I won't take a towel;
Gonna shed these big ole tears and watch em fall;

Lord, I'm thirsty but I won't,
drink the waters;
Have mercy Lord satisfy me;

a hum humm

Lord, I'm thirsty but I won't,
drink the waters;
Have mercy Lord satisfy me;

a hum humm

Lord, I am hungry O God
But  Lord I won't eat your word;
Did you heard...I said God I ain't gonna eat your word;
Ain't gonna eat your or your manna, no, no
Why? cuz I'm full
I'm full of sin;
I said, Lord...
Lord, I am hungry O God
But  Lord I won't eat your word;
Did you heard...I said God I ain't gonna eat your word;
Ain't gonna eat your or your manna, no, no
Why? cuz I'm full
I'm full of sin;
O Lord, I'm thirsty but I won't,
drink the waters;
Have mercy Lord satisfy me;
