One Of Us

If God had a name, what would it be
And would you call it to his face
If you were faced with him in all his glory
What would you ask if you had just one question

Yeah, yeah, God is great
Yeah, yeah, God is good
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

What if God was one of us
Just a slob like one of us
Just a stranger on the bus
Trying to make his way home

If God had a face, what would it look like,
And would you want to see
If seeing meant that you would have to believe
In things like heaven and in Jesus and the saints
And all the Prophets and

Yeah, yeah, God is great
Yeah, yeah, God is good
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

What if God was one of us
Just a slob like one of us
Just a stranger on the bus
Trying to make his way home
Trying to make his way home
Back up to heaven all alone
Nobody calling on the phone
'Cept for the pope maybe in Rome

Yeah, yeah, God is great
Yeah, yeah, God is good
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

What if God was one of us
Just a slob like one of us
Just a stranger on the bus
Trying to make his way home
Like a holy rolling stone
Back up to heaven all alone
Just tryin' to make his way home

Nobody calling on the phone
'Cept for the pope maybe in Rome

大約六七年前，Riverboy send了這首歌給我，一聽就喜歡上了。

早陣子，西西以911為主題，製作了一輯三十多分鐘的音樂旅程，當中也有這首〈One Of Us〉。於是，又再次愛上這歌。

2006年9月22日，在涉谷逛Reco Fan，本沒多大心機搜尋二手唱片，卻無意中見到這張單曲，不用多加考慮就買下了。於是，這幾天CD機內傳出的都是〈One Of Us〉。

〈One Of Us〉，收錄在Joan Osborne 1995年《Relish》專輯。
