Ain’t no loving God gonna understand
How you could call out to him and still love a man
Who is callous and cruel and hates the poor
Kicks them to curb when they’re knocking at the door
What you did to the least of these, you did to him
Ain’t no loving God gonna understand
How you could hold up a Bible and still follow a man
Whose only true love is power and money
And taking even more from the land of milk and honey
Love of money is the root of all evil
-Break-
Ain’t no loving God gonna understand
How you could kneel on Sunday and still stand for a man
Who’s never met a lie he didn’t tell
Confuses right and wrong with the ability to sell
An honest witness does not deceive
Ain’t no loving God gonna understand
How you can sing out hymns, then sing praises for a man
Who thinks kindness is a weakness and sacrifice for fools
The bankers are his masters and the working man his tools
When he speaks graciously, believe him not
-Break-
Ain’t no loving God gonna understand
How you can pray to be holy, then heap praise on a man
Who cheats on his wives and his taxes too
Would rather watch you die than look like he could lose
His throat’s an open grave, there’s venom on his lips
Ain’t no loving God gonna understand
How you could go to church and still listen to a man
Who stands in the boot on the necks of our brothers
And sisters because he considers them “others”
You shall love your neighbor as yourself
