Sister Act – The Greatest Medley Ever Told

Lyrics: The Greatest Medley Ever Told by Sister Act

(Hold on, hold on!)
(Hold on, hold on!)

Started my life
In a worn torn dress that somebody threw out
I knew the way it felt to always live in doubt
To be without the simple things
So afraid my could see the guilt in me

So I got a good job in the city
Working for the man ev’ry night and day
But I never lost a minute of sleep
Worrying ’bout the way the things
Might have been
I was a devil with a blue dress, blue dress, blue dress
Devil with the blue dress on
I was a ho!

Sugar pie, honey bunch
You know that I love you
I can’t help myself
I love you and nobody else

Wait! Oh, yeah, wait a minute Mister postman
Wait!
Wait Mister Postman
(Mister Postman, look and see)
If there’s a letter in your bag for me
I’ve been waiting such a long, long time
Deliver the letter
The sooner the better!

She wore an itsy bitsy
Teeny weeny
Yellow polka dot bikini

Stop! In the name of love
Deloris: But my mama told me
“You better shop around.”
Whoo!
Do the hustle!
Do the hustle!

But it wasn’t enought, baby
Because I needed cash
I needed

Money, money, money, money
Money!
Money, money, money, money

I was a bad girl
Talking ’bout the sad girl
Freak out!

Mister Big Stuff
Who do you think you are?
Mister Big Stuff
You’re never gonna get my love

But he did! He got my coat
He got my love
He got my cousin pregnant
And when I tried to throw him out baby
You know what he did?
He whipped out this great big
All: Shotgun
Shoot him ‘fore he runs, now
Do the jerk, baby
Do the jerk now

Deloris: Hey, I had nowhere to run to, baby
Nowhere to hide
I had nowhere to run to, baby
Nowhere to hide
Until

Hallelujah!
Hallelujah!
Hallelujah!
Hallelujah!
Hallelu!

Nothing you can say could tear me away
From my God
My God
Nothing you can do ’cause
I’m stuck like glue to my God
He may not be a movie star
But when it comes to be happy
We are
There’s not a man today
Who could take me away from my Good
What’d you say?
There’s not a man today
Who could take me away from

I love Him. I love Him. I love Him
I love Him. I love Him. I love Him
Whoo!
I will follow him
Follow him wherever He may go
There isn’t an ocean too deep
A mountain so hight it can keep
Keep me away
All: away from his love

Why?
‘Cause we are family
I got all my sisters with me
We are family
Get up ev’ry body and sing
We are family
I got all my sisters with me
We are family
Get up ev’ry body
Get up ev’ry body
Get up ev’ry body and sing
