Name on the roll...
I'll keep a-walkin'; I'll keep a-talkin'; I'll keep a-singin';
I'll keep a-shoutin' what the Lord has done for me, for me

Said I wasn't gonna preach about it but I...
I couldn't keep it to myself what the Lord has done for me, for me

(Said I wasn't gonna pray about it but I...)
I couldn't keep it to myself (3x)
Said I wasn't gonna pray about it but I...
I couldn't keep it to myself what the Lord has done for me, for me
