Who?
Jonathan and Darlene Edwards Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Who put the sun up in the sky
Who takes away the pain inside
Alright

Who put the sun up in the sky
Who takes away the pain inside
Who put the rain up in the moon
Can even make the flowers bloom

Who gives the babies their names
Paul, John and Peter and James
Who's the One in the midst of the flame
The Great I Am is His name

Who is like the Lord (Nobody, nobody)
Tell me, who is like the Lord, sing (Nobody, nobody)

Who supplies all that you need
More than you can ever receive
Who's the One that will carry you through
When no one else was there to hold you

Who is there in the middle of the night
To keep you safe and turn on the light
Who's the One in the midst of the prayer
The Great I Am is His name

Who is like the Lord (Nobody, nobody)
Tell me, tell me, who is like the Lord, sing (Nobody, nobody)
Who is like the Lord (Nobody, nobody)
I wanna know, I wanna know
Who is like the Lord, sing (Nobody, nobody)

Who gives the babies their names
Paul, John and Peter and James
Who's the One in the midst of the flame
The Great I Am is His name

Like the Lord (Nobody, nobody)
Tell me, tell me, who is like the Lord, sing (Nobody, nobody)
Who is like the Lord (Nobody, nobody)
Oh, oh, yeah, who is like the Lord, sing (Nobody, nobody)
I wanna know

(Can nobody do me like You, Jesus)
(Can nobody do me like You)
(Can nobody do me like You) Nobody can do me like You

(Can nobody do me like You, Jesus)
(Can nobody do me like You) Nobody
(Can nobody do me like You)

(Who is like the Lord) (Nobody, nobody) Tell me, no
(Who is like the Lord) (Nobody, nobody) Nobody, got to tell somebody

(Who is like the Lord) (Nobody, nobody) Yes nobody, but Jesus
(Who is like the Lord) (Nobody, nobody) Yeah, oh, who is like the Lord

(Who is like the Lord) (Nobody, nobody) Nobody, nobody, ooh
(Who is like the Lord) (Nobody, nobody) You'd better know, you know

(Who is like the Lord) (Nobody, nobody) The only God, the Only God, the Redeemer, my Saviour
(Who is like the Lord) (Nobody, nobody) Ooh, yeah

Both of them had perfect pitch, so performing off-key so consistently takes great skill.

Mary Oliver

Boy, you have to be really good to be that awful. Fun.

DoctorSyn11

I don't know whether to laugh or cry at the most beautiful voice in all popular music so abused!

Doug Delaney

As many times as I heard Dr. Demento play Jonathan & Darlene Edwards' songs I never knew she was Jo Stafford. I don't believe he ever mentioned that. Love their spoofs. Btw, I have an album by Florence Foster Jenkins. I love her quote; "People will say that I couldn't sing, but they won't say I didn't."

Steve Burstein

So they're playing themselves PLAYING Johnathan and Darlene Edwards, kinda!

Nurse Grace

What's funny is, if you listen to Jonathan and Darlene enough, it sounds normal. TAKE THE A TRAIN is my favorite : )

Doug Delaney

I played this for my mother and she said "That's
dear"

Their version of 'Stayin' Alive' is the only version where I can understand all the words.
