I Don't Know (Song for the Quakers)

I don’t know what I should do with my life
I don’t know if I should mar-ry me a wife
Or be single

I opened up my Bible and listened real hard
I listened and ah listened ‘til I grew real tahred
An’ I don’t know

(chorus:)
I listened and I read
But all it ever said
Was “boy, whatever you’re doin’ with your life
Do it to the Lord and you can do it right.”

Seems scripture alone can’t come alongside
Seems scripture just don’t help me decide
What I should be

(chorus:)
I listened and I read
But all it ever said
Was “boy, whatever you’re doin’ with your life
Do it to the Lord and you can do it right.”

(2nd chorus:)
I guess I need a friend
Who can tell me more than
Just “boy, whatever you’re doin’ with your life
Do it to the Lord and you can do it right.”

Who can ah ask tuh show me the right way
Who but the Spirit o’ God can show me today
And say more than

Just “boy, whatever you’re doin’ with your life
Do it to the Lord and you can do it right.”
