Im Scared Lyrics

"IM SCARED" - burton cummings



said im scared, lord im scared, im terrified

never been much on religion but i sure never like to hear the call

im scared lordy lord im shakin' im petrified

never been much on religion but i showed up, just fell down on my knees



heard the choir singing something about good will torn men

and even then sleeping in heavenly peace

stopped by to see st thomas 

on a cold and dreary new york afternoon

something in the air was oh so rare 

i dont know what it was but i know that its still right there



and im scared lordy lord im shaken im terrified,

never been much on religion but i showed up and just fell down on my knees



(short instrumental)



livin' in confusion, searchin for truth that i'd never found

i needed somethign to really believe

turned toward the heavens on a dark and stormy winter afternoon

something in the air was oh so rare

im not really sure what it was but i know for sure that its still right there,




scared, hey hey hey hey hey hey im terrified

never been much in religion but i showed up fell down on my knees

oh oh oh oh oh im scared you know im shakin im layin awake thinking about her


now im terrified

never been much on religion but i sure enough would like to hear the call

common now give me a sign your listening to me

you hear me talkin you hear my cryin, 

its confusin to me lord im terrified

never been much on religion but i showed up, 

just fell down on my knees

oh oh oh oh oh
