Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
He's got everything you need
He's got everything you need
He's got everything you need
He got every, everything a poor man need
Walkin' around like a vagabond
Troubles are on your back
Lookin' for money, lookin' for friends
And you don't know who to ask
If you want it, God's got it
He's got everything you need
He's got everything you need
I believe in the Lord above
(I believe in the righteous, I believe in love)
I believe in the fire burnin' in my soul
I believe that His light is gonna make me whole.
If you want it, God's got it
He's got everything you need
He's got everything you need
Well, if you need it now
God's got it now
