Lyrics

[Intro]
Turn me up, turn me up (Clap your hands, y'all, it's alright)
Turn me up (Clap your hands, y'all, it's alright)
Uh-huh (Clap your hands, y'all, it's alright)
Alright (Clap your hands, y'all, it's alright)
[Verse 1]
If tomorrow is judgment day (Sing, mommy)
And I'm standing on the front line (Mmm)
And the Lord asks me what I did with my life
I will say I spent it with you
[Refrain]
It's alright (Clap your hands, y'all, it's alright)
Clap your hands, y'all, it's alright
[Verse 2]
If I wake up in World War III (World War III)
I see destruction and poverty (Oh my, my, my)
And I feel like I want to go home
It's okay if you're coming with me
[Refrain]
It's alright (Clap your hands, y'all, it's alright)
Clap your hands, y'all, it's alright
Alright (Clap your hands, y'all, it's alright)
[Chorus]
'Cause your love is my love (My love)
And my love is your love
It would take an eternity to break us
And the chains of Amistad couldn't hold us
Your love is my love
And my love is your love
It would take an eternity to break us
And the chains of Amistad couldn't hold us
[Refrain]
Clap your hands, y'all, it's alright (Uh-huh)
Clap your hands, y'all, it's alright
Clap your hands, y'all, it's alright
[Verse 3]
If I lose my fame and fortune (Really don't mind that)
And I'm homeless on the street (On the street)
And I'm sleeping in Grand Central Station (Okay)
It's okay if you're sleeping with me
[Refrain]
Clap your hands, y'all, it's alright
Alright (Clap your hands, y'all, it's alright)
[Verse 4]
As the years they pass us by (Years, the years, the years)
We stay young through each other's eyes (Each other's eyes)
And no matter how old we get
It's okay as long as I got you, baby
[Refrain]
Clap your hands, y'all, it's alright (Oh, oh)
Clap your hands, y'all, it's alright
[Chorus]
'Cause your love is my love (Love and)
And my love is your love (My love is, oh, your love, baby)
It would take an eternity to break us (Break us)
And the chains of Amistad couldn't hold us (Oh, now, now, hold us)
Your love is my love (Your love, is my love)
And my love is your love (And my love is your love)
It would take an eternity to break us (No, no, no, no, baby)
And the chains of Amistad couldn't hold us
[Bridge]
If I should die this very day (Very, very, very day)
Don't cry, 'cause on Earth we wasn't meant to stay (Don't cry, clap your hands, y'all, it's alright)
And no matter what the people say (Really don't matter)
I'll be waiting for you after the judgment day
[Chorus]
'Cause your love is my love (Love, my love)
And my love is your love (My love is your love)
It would take an eternity to break us
And the chains of Amistad couldn't hold us (Can't hold us)
Your love is my love (My love, and)
And my love is your love (My love is your love)
It would take an eternity to break us
And the chains of Amistad couldn't hold us
[Chorus]
Your love is my love (Your love is my love)
And my love is your love (My love is your love)
It would take an eternity to break us (Baby)
And the chains of Amistad couldn't hold us (Can't hold us)
[Outro]
Clap your hands, y'all, it's alright
Clap your hands, y'all, it's alright (Clap your hands)
Clap your, clap your, clap your hands, y'all, it's alright
Clap your hands, y'all, it's alright
Clap your hands, clap your hands y'all, it's alright
Clap your hands, y'all, it's alright (Clap your hands)
Clap your hands, y'all, it's alright (I said the record is not over yet)
