99 And 1/2 - Mavis Staples[00:00:00]

Written by：Ry Cooder[00:00:01]

Well I'm runnin'[00:00:03]

I'm tryin' to make 100[00:00:09]

99 and 12 it won't do[00:00:13]

I'm runnin' runnin' for freedom y'all[00:00:20]

Cause 99 and 12 just won't do[00:00:27]

Now if your God won't help you[00:00:34]

You better try mine[00:00:37]

My God is a freedom God[00:00:40]

He'll make a way for you[00:00:43]

In a weary land[00:00:46]

He'll give you rest[00:00:49]

When you're tired[00:00:50]

Protect you on a danger zone[00:00:53]

He'll guide you down a rugged road[00:00:56]

And bring you out on the bright side[00:00:59]

I'm runnin'[00:01:06]

Tryin' to make 100[00:01:08]

99 and a half it just won't do[00:01:11]

It's a rough and uphill journey[00:01:15]

Lord I'm tryin' to make 100[00:01:18]

99 and 12 it won't do no no[00:01:23]

Down in Mississippi[00:01:30]

It just won't do[00:01:31]

Brothers in jail[00:01:33]

It just won't do[00:01:34]

Uneducated children[00:01:36]

It just won't do[00:01:38]

It's the 21st century[00:01:39]

It just won't do[00:01:42]

It feels like it's 1960[00:01:43]

It just won't do[00:01:45]

Broken levies[00:01:47]

It just won't do[00:01:48]

Lyin' politicians[00:01:50]

It just won't do[00:01:52]

Runnin' through hatred[00:01:54]

It just won't do[00:01:55]

Homeless babies[00:01:57]

It just won't do[00:01:58]

Freedom now[00:02:00]

Freedom now[00:02:02]

Freedom now[00:02:04]

Freedom now[00:02:05]

Freedom[00:02:07]

Lord I'm runnin'[00:02:09]

I'm runnin'[00:02:11]

Lord I'm runnin'[00:02:12]

I'm tryin' to make 100[00:02:14]

I'm tryin' to make 100[00:02:16]

Cause 99 and 12 just won't do[00:02:18]

Aha my God's a freedom God[00:02:23]

My God is a peaceful God[00:02:28]

He's a livin' God[00:02:31]

And he's a merciful God[00:02:34]

He has a kingdom you know[00:02:38]

And a city called heaven[00:02:41]

12 gates to that city[00:02:45]

24 elders in the city[00:02:48]

48 angels in the city[00:02:52]

The streets are paved with gold[00:02:55]

Have you heard of a city[00:02:59]

And don't you wanna go[00:03:02]

The address is 100 I gotta make 100[00:03:06]

You see I got 99 and 12[00:03:13]

But it just ain't quite enough[00:03:16]

I wanna go to that city[00:03:20]

City called heaven[00:03:24]

No more cryin' no more hatred[00:03:27]

Always howdy howdy howdy[00:03:34]

And never goodbye[00:03:37]

Oh that city[00:03:41]

Come on don't you wanna go[00:03:44]

I tell ya the address is 100 100 100[00:03:47]

See 99 and 12 it just won't do[00:03:55]

No no no no no[00:04:00]

99 and 12 it just won't do[00:04:02]

I'm here to tell ya that 99 and 12[00:04:07]

99 and 12[00:04:12]

99 and 12 it just won't do[00:04:16]

I can't use it[00:04:21]
