Leroy Smart - Dios ayuda al hombre
Dios ayuda al hombre que piensa por sí mismo
Dios ayuda al hombre que piensa por sí mismo
Mi arreglo es algo de mi sentimiento
Por favor, no me molestes sin desacuerdo
Oh oh oh oh
Dios ayuda al hombre que se ayuda a sí mismo
Así que no te sientes y esperes
?? y maná para caer del cielo
Entonces tienes que poner tu hombro al volante
Mis hermanos y hermanas
Y Dios te ayudará en todo el camino
Dios ayuda al hombre que hace lo suyo
Dios ayuda al hombre que tiene un poco de fe
En lo que hace
Oh
(..)
Mi arreglo es algo de mi sentimiento
Por favor, no me molestes sin desacuerdo
Oh oh oh oh
Dios ayuda al hombre que se ayuda a sí mismo
Así que no te sientes y esperes
?? y maná para caer del cielo
Entonces tienes que poner tu hombro al volante
Mis hermanos y hermanas
Y Dios te ayudará en todo el camino
Dios ayuda al hombre que piensa por sí mismo
Dios ayuda al hombre que piensa por sí mismo
Oh dios ayuda al hombre
Quien piensa por sí mismo ...
