Hands Off Her
J.J. Cale & Leon Russell Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm a king from a king I got Kings genes in me
Don't be fooled don't be ruled don't be down
As we enter the cashless society
I'm from God I never lose
I speak the truth
I'm the proof got them shook
Never give in as we go into times of anxiety
I'm truly blessed and you know it
Faith is what I am showing
God is King you should know it
So spread his love as you know it
Be dependent to God never be independent
That's what the church should preach
I hope they'll comprehend it
I celebrate, I appreciate
So don't doubt Him, temp Him test Him force Him
Compare Him to any for there is no comparison
Don't you rush your blessings
Just be patient
And praise Him, worship Him, fear Him Trust Him
Love Him and keep all your faith in Him
I see vampires Lord, I see vampires
Then jealousy, envy, sinful, greediness
That's what this whole world be breathing in, believing in, fishing in, sinning in
They take it lightly forgetting Jesus
But with Him I'm blessed
And He makes me feel like a kid again born again
I just just landed on good ground from sowers hand
I got more faith and God's grace
I'm immortal and I don't age
Without God everything
Become tasteless, breathless, lifeless senseless and meaningless
I just came off the sowers (Sowers hand)
Got too much faith and God's grace
I got the Holy Spirit flowing all over my arteries
Now all I got to do is be fruitful and replenish
I just came off the sowers (Sowers hand)
Got too much faith and God's grace
I got the Holy Spirit flowing all over my arteries
Now all I got to do is be fruitful and replenish
With a little bit of this
And a little bit of that
Can we talk about the future
Or we talk about the past present
Fusek Satan Fusek Fusek Satan Fusek
I'm down on my knees Lord save me please
Kingdom keys pass them to me please
Now where can I be without you in me and me in you pleasing you
King I'm truly blessed and you know it
Faith is what I am showing
God is King you should know it
So spread His love as you know it
Its all about the light Kingdom over the dark kingdom
And no more thoughts of evil
Coz delivered are my people
I got too much info for my people
That be watchful, be careful
Never be deceived
The devil is distracting you from eternity, serenity, it's quality over quantity
This world is twisted with confusion
But thank God for His grace and Christ King
You see Spirit of God is in I
The light of my body is my eye
The devil ain't lucky coz Christ is alive
The way the truth and the life




The untouchable, death dealer, sickness killer, evil healer
My redeemer, time keeper, life taker, soul eater

@IsabellaHale

Years ago..I am guessing mid 70s an ad showed in a local paper: Leon Russell in town doing a gig.. at a local club in DC. We went and there he was..very small crowd. I was in total awe. The venue was so small that some people actually got up and danced. just unreal. those were really the good old days at least for our generation.

@paoloruberti7762

I'm totally agree with you

@ChuckECheeez

I saw Leon Russell at a small-ish club of like 3-400 ppl about 6 months before he died. Even in old age- one of the best concerts I’ve ever seen.

@markmoriarty7388
