I am the preacher â shoutin' out the news
I am the juke stomper â playin' the blues
I am the Holy Roller â givin' Jesus my cares
I am the candy man â pushin' my wares
I am the cowboy â brandin' my steers
I am the Cherokee brave â on the Trail Of Tears
I am the master â whip in my hand
I am the slave â from a distant land
After all is said an' done â with my Maker I am One
I am the Okie â on a dusty road
I am the banker â with the tailor-made clothes
I am the hobo â in a cold boxcar
I am the railroad baron â with the long cigar
I am the ghetto brother â âbout to lose his lease
I am the landlord â cuttin' of the heat
I am the prisoner â playin' cards
I am the warden â lokkin' out on the yard
After all is said an' done â with my Maker I am One
I am the doctor â savin' the sick
I am the junkie â gravin' a fix
I am the homeless child â on streets so mean
I am the movie star â on the silver screen
I am the champion â on the finish line
I am the beggar â holdin' up the sign
I am the rookie â tryin' to make the Hall Ãf Fame
I am the gangster â fixin' the game
After all is said an' done â with my Maker I am One
After all is said an' done â with my Maker I am One
