Sneed Powerful Woman
Sneed is a powerful woman
Cuz more love her
Than she could love back
We sit out on the porch
Laughin' at the stories
She does tell
She says Hmmmmm
Jesus will heal it all
She says Hmmmmm
It's our job to be strong
Pickin' cotton, depression,
death and poverty
As a black woman
This was her reality
But God is on her side she says
No need for despair
Despite the inequality
Joy was hers
She saw that as being fair
She says Hmmmmm
Jesus will heal it all
She says Hmmmmm
It's our job to be strong
Well to church with her
I won't too much
Cuz I mostly roll my eyes
I think the power she has is hers
And it's way deep down inside.
But she says Hmmmmm
Jesus will heal it all
She says Hmmmmm
It's our job to be strong
Argue with her I never will
Cuz lose I surely would
Do your best
To do your best
The prize is welcome arms from her
But actin' up and actin' wrong
Will get the devil Hell
Beat right outta ya'
Then she'll say: Hmmmm
Jesus will heal it all
She says Hmmmmm
It's our job to be strong
It's our job to be strong
