| Then she moved toward the exit clutching tightly at her paper bag |
| Perspiration trickled down her forehead |
| And her heart it leapt inside her as the hand laid on her shoulder |
| She was led away bewildered and amazed |
| Through her deafened ears the cash machines were shrieking on the counter |
| As her escort asked her softly for her name |
| And a crowd of honest people rushed to help a tired old lady |
| Who had fainted to the whirling wooden floor |
| CHORUS #2: |
| Crying "God knows I'm good, God knows I'm good |
| God knows I'm good, surely God won't look the other way |
| God knows I'm good, God knows I'm good |
| God knows I'm good, surely God won't look the other way" Hey! |
