    Default Help with lyrics to old Gospel Song

    My grandmother will be 100 on June 1, 2007. We are having a program at church, Sunday, June 3, and I want to sing Lord I'm Running trying to Make a Hundred 99 1/2 won't do.

    Can someone please post the lyrics for me? It's an up tempo song and I want the church to liven up and be happy fo her.

    (gospel church clapping)

    I'm running low (Lord I'm running trying to make a hundred)
    trying to make a hundred (Lord I'm running trying to make a hundred)
    Ninety-nine and a half just wont do

    I'm running low (Lord I'm running trying to make a hundred)
    trying to make a hundred (Lord I'm running trying to make a hundred)
    Ninety-nine and a half just won't do

    I'm praying loud (Lord I'm praying trying to make a hundred)
    trying to make a hundred (Lord I'm praying trying to make a hundred)
    Ninety-nine and a half just wont do

    I'm praying loud
    trying to make a hundred
    Ninety-nine and a half just wont do

    No it wont do (No no no it wont do)
    it wont do (no no no it wont do)
    Oh it wont do (no no no it wont do)
    It wont do
    It wont do
    Just wont do
    Ninety-nine and a half just wont do

    And I'm counting now
    You're a survivor
    I'm just trying go further
    I guess you wont help
    you're left behind
    Your half of the weight
    won't make the grade
    You ain't moving
    I'm grooving
    let me tell you
    Ninety-one
    Ninety-two
    Ninety-three
    Ninety-four
    Ninety-five
    Ninety-six
    Ninety-seven
    Ninety-eight
    Ninety-nine and a half just wont do

    You're a survivor
    I'm just trying to go further
    I'm gonna make a mile
    Sure I'll try
    Your half the weight
    Won't make the grade
    Are you moving?
    See me I'm grooving
    let me tell you 91,92,93....
