The Greatest Medley Ever Told
by Sister Act 2 Cast

Girls: Hold on, hold on!
Hold on, hold on!
Deloris: Started my life
In a worn torn dress that somebody threw out.
I knew the way it felt to always live in doubt,
to be without the simple things.
So afraid my could see the guilt in me.
So I got a good job in the city.
Working for the man ev'ry night and day.
But I never lost a minute of sleeping
Worrying 'bout the way the things
Might have been.
I was a devil with a blue dress, blue dress, blue dress.
Devil with the blue dress on.
I was a ho!
Sugar pie, honey bunch,
you know that I love you.
I can't help myself.
I love you and nobody else.
Wait! Oh, yeah, wait a minute Mister postman.
Wait! Wait Mister Postman.
All: Mister Postman, look and see
If there's a letter in your bag for me.
I've been waiting such a long, long time.
Deliver the letter.
The sooner the better!
She wore an itsy bitsy,
teeny weeny,
yellow polka dot bikini.
Stop! In the name of love.
Deloris: But my mama told me,
"You better shop around.".
All: Whoo!
Girls the hustle!
Do the hustle!
Deloris: But it wasn't enought, baby.
Because I needed cash.
I needed
All: Money, money, money, money.
Money!
Money, money, money, money.
Deloris: I was a bad girl.
Talking 'bout the sad girl.
Freak out!
Mister Big Stuff.
Who do you think you are?
Mister Big Stuff,
you're never gonna get my love.
But he did! He got my coat,
He got my love,
He got my cousin pregnant,
and when I tried to throw him out baby,
you know what he did?
He whipped out this great big…
All: Shotgun.
Shoot him 'fore he runs, now.
Do the jerk, baby.
Do the jerk now.
Deloris: Hey, I had nowhere to run to, baby.
Nowhere to hide.
I had nowhere to run to,baby.
Nowhere to hide
Until
Girls: Hallelujah!
Hallelujah!
Hallelujah!
Hallelujah!
Hallelu!
Deloris: Nothing you can say could tear me away
From my God.
Girls: My God.
Deloris: Nothing you can do 'cause
I'm stuck like glue to my God
He may not be a movie star,
but when it comes to be happy,
we are.
There's not a man today
Who could take me away from my Good.
Girls: What'd you say?
Deloris: There's not a man today
Who could take me away from…
Girls & Nuns: I love Him. I love Him. I love Him.
I love Him. I love Him. I love Him.
Whoo!
I will follow him,
follow him wherever He may go.
There isn't an ocean too deep,
a mountain so hight it can keep,
keep me away.
All: away from his love.
Why?
'cause we are family.
I got all my sisters with me.
We are family.
Get up ev'ry body and sing.
We are family.
I got all my sisters with me.
We are family
Get up ev'ry body
Get up ev'ry body
Get up ev'ry body and sing

Never Shouldve Let You Go
by Sister Act 2 Cast

( Hi-Five )

Girl, when I first met you I didn't realize
You were looking to stay around
But I was looking to play around
Now I can't forget you
Can't forget your pretty smile
Took for granted the love you gave
And only thought of the love we made
Just when I found someone who could love me
Like the way that I need
I acted a fool and pushed her away from me

And I'll be thinking 'bout you every night and every day
'Cause in my heart I'll know that I never should have let you go
And my love for you is stronger than I ever knew
But I couldn't tell you so that I never should have let you go

Do you think about me like I wasn't worth your time
I would give anything I have
If you give me another chance
Do you think you're better off without me
Playing games with your heart and mind, oh yeah
I don't blame you for leaving me
But now you gotta believe in me
If you come back, girl, I promise
That you'll see a change in my ways
I'll get down on my knees
I'll do anything you say

And I'll be thinking 'bout you every night and every day
'Cause in my heart I'll know that I never should have let you go
And my love for you is stronger than I ever knew
But I couldn't tell you so that I never should have let you go

Is there someone else standing where I stood
Giving you the love you never got from me
Girl, I would give you the world if I only could
Girl, you will see
Will you come back to me
Won't you come back to me

And I'll be thinking 'bout you every night and every day
'Cause in my heart I'll know that I never should have let you go
And my love for you is stronger than I ever knew
But I couldn't tell you so that I never should have let you go

And I'll be thinking 'bout you every night and every day
'Cause in my heart I'll know that I never should have let you go
And my love for you is stronger than I ever knew
But I couldn't tell you so
No, I never should have let
No, I never should have let
No, I never should have let you go

Oh...

Ball Of Confusion (That's What The World Is Today)
by Sister Act 2 Cast

(Whoopi And The Sisters)

People moving out, people moving in
Why, because of the color of their skin
Run, run, run but you sure can't hide

An eye for an eye, tooth for a tooth
Vote for me and I'll set you free
Rap on, sisters, rap on

Well, the only person talkin' 'bout love, my brother is the preacher
And it seems nobody's interested in learning but the teacher
Segregation, determination, demonstration, integration
Aggravation, humiliation, obligation to our nation

Ball of confusion (oh, yeah, yeah)
That's what the world is today
Woo, hey, hey (let me hear it, let me hear it, let me hear it, say it)

The sale of pills are at an all time high (say it)
Young folks walking 'round with their heads in the sky (oh, say it)
The cities ablaze in the summer time!
And oh, the beat goes on

Evolution, revolution, gun control, sound of soul
Shooting rockets to the moon, kids growing up too soon
Gloria (round and around and around we go)
Gloria (where the world's headed nobody knows)
Alleluia ([Whoopi] Play Alma, go ahead girl)

Oh, great googalooga, can't you hear me talking to you?
Just a ball of confusion
Oh yeah, that's what the world is today
Oi vay

Fear in the air, tension everywhere
Unemployment rising fast, hip hop music's a gas
And the only safe place to live is on the Indian Reservation
And the band played on

Eve of destruction, tax deduction, city inspectors, bill collectors
Mod clothes in demand, population out of hand, suicide, too many bills
Yuppies moving to the hills
People all over the world shouting, "End the war!"
And the band played

Ball of confusion (that's what the world is today)
Ball of confusion (that's what the world is today)
Ball of confusion (that's what the world is today)
Great googalooga, can't you hear us talking to you
Sayin'...Ball of confusion

His Eye Is On The Sparrow
by Sister Act 2 Cast

( Tanya Blount And Lauryn Hill )

Why should I feel discouraged
Why should the shadows come
Why should my heart feel lonely
And long for heaven and home
When Jesus is my portion
A constant friend is He
His eye is on the sparrow
And I know He watches over me
His eye is on the sparrow
And I know He watches me

I sing because I'm happy
I sing because I'm free
His eye is on the sparrow
And I know He watches me (He watches me)
His eye is on the sparrow
And I know He watches
I know He watches
I know He watches me

I sing because I'm happy
I sing because I'm free
His eye is on the sparrow
And I know He watches me (He watches me)
His eye is on the sparrow
And I know He watches me (He watches me)
He watches me
I know
He watches

Pay Attention
by Sister Act 2 Cast

( Valeria Andrews And Ryan Toby )

If you wanna be somebody
If you wanna go somewhere
You better wake up and pay attention
Hey...

So you think you've got the answers
To all that lies ahead
Well, in my mind I thought the same one time
And I hear you spouting much talk
'Bout how you ain't being lead
Ain't no one telling you what to do
But attitude will catch up with you
And keep you from your destiny

If you wanna be somebody
If you wanna go somewhere
You better wake up and pay attention
When the time is now or never
To make your dreams come true
You gotta wake up and pay attention

I ain't buyin' no more lyin'
'Cause truth don't cost a thing
Denyin' what's inside's too much to pay
It's 'bout sweatin' without stressin'
There ain't no other way
You know you can't get much without much givin'
Oh, expect from yourself and you'll respect yourself
You control your destiny

If you wanna be somebody
If you wanna go somewhere
You better wake up and pay attention
When the time is now or never
To make your dreams come true
You gotta wake up and pay attention

If you wanna be somebody
If you wanna go somewhere
You better wake up and pay attention
When the time is now or never
To make your dreams come true
You gotta wake up and pay attention

Time to wake up, everybody
Time to wake up, children
Wake up, everybody
(Ooh...)

If you wanna be somebody
If you wanna go somewhere
You better wake up and pay attention
When the time is now or never
To make your dreams come true
You gotta wake up and pay attention

If you wanna be somebody (wake up)
Go somewhere
Wake up and pay attention
When the time is now or never
To make your dreams come true
You gotta wake up and pay attention...

Aint No Mountain High Enough
by Sister Act 2 Cast

( Whoopi And The Cast )

Now if you need me
Call me
No matter where you are
No matter how far
Don't worry baby
Just call out my name
I'll be there in a hurry
You don't have to worry

'Cause baby, there ain't no mountain high enough
Ain't no valley low enough
Ain't no river wide enough
To keep me from getting to you, babe

Remember the day
I set you free
I told you, you could always count on me, darling
And from that day on
I made a vow
I'll be there when you want me
Some way, some how

'Cause baby, there ain't no mountain high enough
Ain't no valley low enough
Ain't no river wide enough
To keep me from getting to you, babe

And no wind (no wind)
And no rain (no rain)
Or winter's cold
Can stop me, baby (oh baby)
'Cause if you're ever in trouble
I'll be there on the double
Just send for me, baby
Oh baby

My love is alive
Deep down in my heart
Although we're miles apart
If you ever need
A helping hand
I'll be there on the double
Just as fast as I can

'Cause baby, there ain't no mountain high enough
Ain't no valley low enough
Ain't no river wide enough
To keep me from getting to you, babe

Ain't no mountain high enough
Ain't no valley low enough
Ain't no river wide enough
To keep me from you

Ain't no mountain high enough
Ain't no valley low enough
Ain't no river wide enough
To keep me from you

Aaaahhh...
Nothing can keep me
Keep me from you
Ain't no mountain high enough
Nothing can keep me
Keep me from you
Aaaahhh...
Nothing can keep me
Keep me from you
