Prince - One Of Us Lyrics

Artist: Prince

Album: Emancipation (Cd 3)

  • Songwriters: Eric Bazilian

If God had a name, what would it be?
And would we call it to His face
If we were faced with Him and all His glory
What would you ask if you had just one question?

Yeah, yeah, God is great
Yeah, yeah, God is good
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah

What if God was one of us?
Just a slave like one of us?
Just a stranger on the bus
Tryin' to make His way home

If God had a face, what would it look like
And would you wanna see it?
If seeing meant that you would have to believe in things like heaven
And Jesus and the saints and all the prophets?

Yeah, yeah, God is great
Yeah, yeah, God is good
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah

What if God was one of us?
Just a slave like one of us?
Just a stranger on the bus
Tryin' to make His way home, yeah

Yeah, yeah, God is great
Yeah, yeah, God is good
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah

What if God was one of us?
Just a slob like one of us?
(Slave)
Just a stranger on the bus
Tryin' to make His way home

Like a holy rollin' stone, back up to heaven all alone
Nobody callin' on the phone, 'cept for the Pope, maybe in Rome
But He ain't home, He ain't home, He ain't home
No, no, no, He ain't home, no, no, no, He ain't home
Oh yeah, oh
