Larry Norman/Randy Stonehill - Norman's Kitchen lyrics

I got stoned in Norman's kitchen We was talking 'bout the facts of life, that's right He asked me was I happy as I reached for the bu*ter knife I said "No," and I made a sandwich And I poured myself a cup of tea When that cat started praying the Spirit fell on me (Wait a minute – I didn't even know that chord back then) I got up to use the bathroom I said, "Excuse me please," But I couldn't help from laughing and I felt shaky in the knees As I leaned against the mirror my heart let out a sigh Like something heavy left me, and I opened up my eyes I can see, I am free And I'm who I want to be Mercy me, mercy me Mercy me Whoa yeah Mercy me I was born in dusty Stockton and I grew up in San Jose But I never started living until I learned to pray Now my parents, they ignore me They say I've gotten strange But when you're touched by Heaven you know that something's bound to change I can see, I am free And I'm who I want to be Mercy me, mercy me Mercy me Yeah, ooh Well, I can see, I am free And I'm who I want to be Mercy me, mercy me Mercy me Yes, yes I can see, oh yeah, I can be free now And I can the me I want to be now, yeah Mercy, mercy, mercy me Mercy me I'll talk about J.C., Yeah, I can see, I am free And I'm who I want to be Mercy me, mercy me Mercy me He poured his mercy on me I can see, I am free Yeah, and I'm who I want to be Mercy me, mercy me Mercy me Oh yeah Mercy me Oh, mercy me Hey, yeah, yeah That's right And the dogs say amen
