Ray Charles - Oh, Diogenes! Lyrics
There was an old zany who lived in a tub;
He had so many fleabites
He didn't know where to rub.
He kept looking for an honest man
Said "I'm gonna find him if I can"
This is what I'd say:
Rub-a-dub-dub
Oh, Diogenes!
Find a man who's honest!
Oh, Diogenes!
Wrap him up for me
Oh, Diogenes!
Find a man who's stolid-solid
Hook that fish if he's in the sea
Hunt him! Trail him!
If he is free
Have you got your stick?
Have you got your lantern?
Can you do the trick
And produce him, please!
Catch that fellow!
Ring that bell,
Oh, Diogenes!

Intersectionality is a malicious lie. This, this, this music, s us.

STOP LITTERING!
MY MOM NOW 86 YEARS OLD
WOULD SAY, DO NOT LITTER
KEEP AMERICA BEAUTIFUL!
POCKET THE LITTLE GARBAGE
AWAY UNTIL YOU SEE THE GARBAGE CAN.
MOST OF WHAT MAKES OUR STREETS LOOK AWFUL!!
GOD DOES ONE THING TO MAKE US CLEAN THE FRONT YARD, WHEN HE SENDS THE WIND ( THE GARBAGE YOU THREW COMES BACK TO YOU.) HE WASHES THE ROADS AND
STREETS WITH RAIN.
I BELIEVE THAT SOMETIMES IT DOESN'T RAIN, BECAUSE THE
HOMELESS PRAY " PLEASE GOD, I DO NOT WANT TO GET WET"!
"My God done shed his grace on thee,
And you outta love Him for it,
Cause He,He,crowned thy good
He told me He would
With brotherhood,from
Sea to shining sea..."
Nothin more to be said...
Beautiful, thank you Mr. Charles

Geez, Ray is a National Treasure as sure as can be and he totally owns this piece. He is so gracious and thankful for his life and just a real genuine human being.
I thank God for you,,,
I thought this was USA's national anthem.....it runs alot deeper with real pride & meaning that you can feel your eyes brimming with tears that roll down your face !!!!
It touches the core of the human spirit !!!!
I heard this sung by president George Bush at ground zero of the Twin towers on the fateful day 9/11/2001 !!!!!
The dislikes must be communist trolls.
We miss you Ray, you were a treasure.
Sing it my brother, U S Marine here. God bless America and God bless your memory Mr. Charles! Oohrah
The great master.
THE LATE GREAT RAY CHARLES !!!!!!!! 🙏🙏🙏🙏
love you ray.
From sanity to insanity in less than 20 years, I miss those good ole days.
If Whitney Houston owns the Star Spangled Banner, Ray owns this one.
That's a real insight.

Hard to keep a dry eye here...................RIP Mr Charles and thank you for this wonderful song........

SO weird, that he moved the other way so deep..
I wish I could be this proud of my Country.......
Tell me a person who can sing this better....I'll wait....
My race has suffered trials and tribulations at the hands of the government of this country. But it is no different from any other and at the end of that battle we like America on the day. At that beautiful moment we saw the truth of America and it is beautiful. Never before and never again will someone emphasize that fight that struggle and that success in song. Ray's love for our country is shown in how he sings that song and in that he shows just how beautiful our country truly is. Thank you Ray for being a light of yesterday and a beacon for tomorrow.
Ray, Ray!...tu es irreplaceable et unique! ...on en fait plus comme toi. .,.
Dam us with hate .fuck stop we are here to help each other out. To grow .make The USA one

Different but pleasing. How blessed we are in America.
Wow awsome man
Dear friends,If you can listen to this without tears rolling down your eyes, go to see your physician tomorrow.God bless America.
I know GOD blessed him and still does, I lived at Farches Grove in Union,N.J. when he played and sang there in the summer of either 58 or 59 he was in the back seat of silver 59 Coup DeVille, he always was something else
I love this song thankyou Ray ! Now the country I grew up in is in its twilight years.
The rule of law belongs to a Satanic System because it comes under the guise of real law the law belongs and comes from the most high, Elohiym the first and last remember the world was handed over unto the wicked because of our ancestor's contrary walk against our Father Yahuah it's written Deuteronomy 28. Look up 5$ Indians.
There is none above the most high and no balance in between!!!!! See https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cv8TcHHLngo

As of 9/16/19 through 9/20/19 the Federal Reserve has printed +/- $75 billion to buy assets from commercial banks to prevent them from becoming insolvent. U.S. treasuries, mortgage backed securities etc.
I love our country. No idea why so many disgusting socialists hate it.
Literaly, only a blind man, could say America is beautiful!!! What an Irony!!! The destroyer of countries around the world...!
Legendary
Voctave

The notion of America remains mankind's greatest achievement. This man singing his love is a testament to the evolution of that idea. Love from Australia.

AMEN & AMEN!!!
Mr. Ray Charles
Ray Charles made me cray every time I hear this song from his divine soul, I got connect whit him, soul to soul, heart to heat, because we both love AMERICA, THE BEAUTIFULL. GOD BLESS AMERICA. HOME OF THE FREE
Make me cry like a baby, filled with love for this great nation
if Trump only knew!! This is truth
I don't usually get choked up, but that song just his a nerve, usually only reserved for the Navy Hymn and Amazing Grace.
As haitien this song get me
I don't see beautiful expect hate, let us be honest, But it is not only in America it is all over the world. We expect too much from the feeble mind human.
"The prerequisites of civilization are not an interesting subject to those who concentrate on its shortcomings—that is, on the extent to which what currently exists as the fruits of centuries of efforts and sacrifices is inferior to what they can produce in their imagination immediately at zero cost, in the comfort and security provided by the society they disdain. What would otherwise be a purely personal idiosyncrasy becomes socially ominous when it generates a whole vision of the world in which very real and often very painful predicaments are dealt with as if they were entirely different from what they are. That vision is the vision of cosmic justice. In addition to its other dangers, the quest for cosmic justice is incompatible with the fundamental principles of the American revolution—the rule of law, individual freedom, and democratic government."
Sowell, Thomas. The Quest for Cosmic Justice (p. 150). Free Press. Kindle Edition.
I love you Ray charles 💝
Thank you for the update and the song ❤️ sweetest thing ever by Ray Charles !!
This is America's song
Listen, no letters to waste. . .just say DT hates. The End
Please be reincarnated,
, and come back to sing to our youth.
Who's still watching this vedios in July 2019....woaw
Can't nobody sing this song like Ray Charles.
That is freakin awesome!!!! Omg!!!
I remember when this album came out, I heard this song, an heard Some Where Over the Rainbow...……...It was on the other side...….Those 2 songs helped me get over my Moms Passing...…..Over the Rain Bow was her favorite song in the world. My band played it for her on Mothers day when she came to see me in Military School in S.C. GBA
People who disliked this song is ether not American or a heartless liberal.
I'm English, and I loved this. I wish Donald Trump could watch and listen to this he could have learned so much from a truly great American like Ray Charles - humility, charm, manners, class - and the difference between true patriotism, and jingoist bigotry. Let's not worry too much - there are millions of Americans who do understand this who'll be taking over before too long
I will be president for all Americans' — transcript of Donald Trump's election night victory speech https://www.latimes.com/politics/la-na-pol-trump-election-night-speech-20161108-story.html
For a man that couldn't see I could see love and him and in this song God Bless Ray Charles God bless the United States of America and our Armed Forces God bless
What America can be,,,,, not what it is 2019....
Americans loves Ray Charles An American Patriot
Oh Ray..this is simply beautiful
It’s July 04,2019. Thanks to all servicemen who lay down or serve to give us all freedom . America ,I love you America My God has shed it grace on thee. There’s no other nation on earth that I rather be .
From this English Patriot to all American Patriot's, Happy Independence Day.
THIS IS HOW THE SOUL SINGS THIS "AMERICA " WELL DONE SIR .
Great song. Special version.
I hope the 543 thumbs down weren't from Americans.
Still brings tears to my eyes...I hope we aren't the Last generation to Love America.
If any of the younger generations hear this song, maybe no one ever told you that America isn't a Place, or even a People. It is an Ideal...an idea. That's why Anyone can embrace it...wherever you are.
America is a Standard which states that, "You must EARN your keep...but, you may KEEP what you earn.". That no one...no Government has a right to take what's yours without YOUR consent.
That YOU have a right to DEFEND yourself and what's yours from ANYONE that tries to take from you without it.
That your RIGHT to live as you wish extends as far as the person NEXT TO YOU, and noone can say otherwise Legally...no matter what Corrupt Politicians, or Judges say.
America is a STANDARD set ABOVE the Political leaders and even The People...set High for U.S. to live Up to.
We have failed badly b4 and are in danger of total loss today..cameras & microphones in our faces everywhere, Unconstitutional government mandates, Unconscionable acts of premeditated murder against the most vulnerable praised openly, etc..BUT
the Tryrunt Wannabees only win if you SURRENDER America in your HEARTS!
THANKS SSSSS FOR YOU MUSIC RAY THE GREAT GENIUS R I P
