Like Marlon Brando with a Jimmy Cagney style

John Wayne kind of swagger with a Henry Fonda smile

He hang out on the corner, he hang out on the street

All the homies come around him when the brother starts to preach



He take the bible wherever he goes

He tell the truth like it's someone he knows

He put his heart into every word

He got a vision, or haven't you heard



CHORUS

Man with a mission- he's out on the street

Man with a mission- he's walkin' the beat

Man with a mission- the deacon of souls

Man with a mission

Man with a mission of love



He got to preach what he feel down in his soul

Got to follow Jesus or you never will be whole

Now if you're dancin' with the devil, boy you're gonna pay a price

You better listen to the preacher, take some free advice



He got an answer for every man

He gonna reach you however he can

He gonna preach ‘til he's blue in the face

He gonna hip you up whatever it takes, he's a



Chorus



If he meets you on the corner he will greet you with a smile

He'll be preachin' in the neighborhood to pray you through in style

When he leads you up to Calvary you will find your heart's desire

He will slay you in the spirit with the Holy Ghost and tongues of fire



Chorus
