My Kind Of People
from A Brighter Day
Maybell McCoy singing alto loud
Her kids are on the front row makin' her proud
Betty Lou's got the old upright rockin'
To the rythm of the Lord
Brother Ray's passin' round the offering plates
The Billy Green family's sneakin' in late
Brother Paul start's preachin'
And there aint no stoppin'
Till they're all in one accord

My kind of people
My kind of people
This is the church
And this is the steeple
Open the door it's my kind of people

Souls are fed and the lost are found
Everybody's ready for dinner on the ground
Cold fried chicken and home grown tomatoes
And some Carolina tea
After blackberry cobbler and chocolate pie
The preacher calls everybody back inside
For some hand clappin' down home quartet singin'
My Savior God to thee

Repeat chorus
