Shout, sister, shout
Shout, sister, shout
Shout, sister, shout
And tell the whole world what it's all about
Listen everybody to the precious word
I'm gonna do some chirpin', and I ain't no bird
There's a reason for living, a reason for dying
There's a darn good reason why a woman starts crying
A reason for a mole, a reason for a dimple
But there ain't no reason why a man's so simple
(Shout, sister, shout) Yeah
(Shout, sister, shout) I'm telling you
(Shout, sister, shout) Yeah
And tell the whole world what it's all about
Now there's a way to be brilliant, a way to be a fool
There's a way to get to heaven, observe the golden rule
A way to get a sweetheart, a way to get a wife
And the day you quit your brother, that's the way you lose your life
(Shout, sister, shout) Yeah
(Shout, sister, shout) Oh boy
(Shout, sister, shout) Yeah
And tell the whole world what it's all about
There's a reason for a mountain, a reason for a hill
There's a reason why a doctor gives a patient a pill
A reason for a dance, a reason to sing
But there ain't no reason why a band can't swing
ย
I can understand the birds, and I can understand the bees
I can even understand why a rat eats cheese
Well, I can understand my dog, I can understand your cat
Well, fill me full of rhythm, can you understand that? Yes
(Shout, sister, shout) Hallelujah
(Shout, sister, shout) Hallelujah
(Shout, sister, shout) Hallelujah
And tell the whole world what it's all about
I'm gonna shout
I'm gonna shout
I'm gonna shout it out
And tell the world what it's all about
