Can't Keep A Good Man Down
by Avenue

Album: Here We Are


He said goodbye to the angels of Heaven
And he came to Earth as a common man
He taught us how we could love one another
There was healing in his hands
There were those who believed and followed
And there were those who wanted him dead
They thought the grave would silence him forever
But they found out instead

You can close your eyes
You can say its a lie
You can stick your head in the sand
You can turn away even try to explain
He was just another man
When they nailed him to a cross by his hands and his feet
And they put him in the ground
Three days later everybody found out that you cant
No you can't keep a good man down
No you can't keep a good man down


I hear you say that it all sounds crazy
Its a good story but it cant be true
How could a man who was dead and buried
Mean a thing to me and you
Here we are 2,000 years later and
Still the choice is just the same
You can say that you don't believe it
But it doesn't change a thing
No it doesn't change a thing

You can close your eyes
You can say its a lie
You can stick your head in the sand
You can turn away even try to explain
He was just another man
When they nailed him to a cross by his hands and his feet
And they put him in the ground
Three days later everybody found out that you cant
No you can't keep a good man down
No you can't keep a good man down

I can take you to the hill where they hung him on a cross
I can take you to the empty tomb
I can tell you He's alive cause he lives in me
But the rest is up to you

You can close your eyes
You can say its a lie
You can stick your head in the sand
You can turn away even try to explain
He was just another man
When they nailed him to a cross by his hands and his feet
And they put him in the ground
Three days later everybody found out that you cant
No you can't keep a good man down
No you can't keep a good man down
Can't keep a good man down
Can't keep a good man down

Can't keep a good man down
Can't keep a good man down
