Generate meaning
1
I was walking through the counters of a national concern
2
And a cash machine was spitting by my shoulder
3
And I saw the multitude of faces, honest, rich and clean
4
As the merchandise exchanged and money roared
5
And a woman hot with worry slyly slipped a tin of stewing steak
6
Into the paper bag at her side
7
And her face was white with fear in case her actions were observed
8
So she closed her eyes to keep her conscience blind
9
Crying
10
"God knows I'm good
11
God knows I'm good
12
God knows I'm good
13
God may look the other way today
14
God knows I'm good
15
God knows I'm good
16
God knows I'm good
17
God may look the other way today"
18
Then she moved toward the exit clutching tightly at her paper bag
19
Perspiration trickled down her forehead
20
And her heart it leapt inside her as the hand laid on her shoulder
21
She was led away bewildered and amazed
22
Through her deafened ears the cash machines were shrieking on the counter
23
As her escort asked her softly
24
For her name
25
And a crowd of honest people rushed to help a tired old lady
26
Who had fainted to the whirling
27
Wooden floor
28
Crying
29
"God knows I'm good
30
God knows I'm good
31
God knows I'm good
32
Surely God won't look
33
The other way
34
God knows I'm good
35
God knows I'm good
36
God knows I'm good
37
Surely God won't look
38
The other way"
