Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis
Deeper
Sitting on my porch I watch the cars go by
Daydreamin' about the city life
Fast cars nice clothes
But no cash to pay the cab fair
She realizes that she's out of money
And those who were down
They think it's really damn funny
Well they say
That's what she get's for being phony

We need to get
Deeper, deeper, deeper, deeper
Deeper, deeper, deeper, deeper

Standin' in a cafe line
As a woman with child watches for
Any food to fall from a tray
But don't laugh it could be you by the end of the day
But I don't think ya heard me
Stand fast be strong you'll live long
You can't go wrong
Cause were all God's children
And we need to get deeper

You know you gotta be strong
To find your way back home
With God you can't go wrong
So let's get deeper
We need to get deeper
Lalalalalala
Let's get deeper
Lalalalalala
Let's get deeper
Lalalalalala
Let's get deeper

Need to get deeper
Stop pointing fingers
We need to get deeper
True to ourselves

(Spoken)
Get involved, Get deeper
