Bryan Duncan – Recognize A Lover From A Thief lyrics
One's educated, one has been to school
Who is the genius, who is the fool
Well, it's hard to tell one from the other
They both have all the answers
One gives a promise and the other his word
One is a teacher and the other is heard
They're both calling your name,
And the offer's the same, yeah

How long will you suffer
Caught between the pleasure and the grief?
(Uh huh)
Uh huh
How long, how long
'Til you recognize a lover from a thief?
How long, how long will you suffer
Caught between the pleasure and the grief?
(Uh huh)
Uh huh
How long, how long
'Til you recognize a lover from a thief?
Alright!
(How long!
How long, huh!
How long!)
[Martin Luther King Jr. Sample]
(How long? Not long, 'cause mine eyes have seen the glory of the com
