Let me tell you I appreciate all the love and strength 

you've shown. 

I know it's hard to keep a smile on your face, 

And nobody could eva' take their place. 



Every mother, every sister/brother, every child that's now gone, 

I know they're smilin' looking down on your face. 

In a better place, I'll hear them say........ 



Can't nobody hurt me, 

Can't nobody fade me, (oh no!) 

I'm resting in a better place. 

Can't nobody harm me, 

Can't nobody touch me. 

I'm resting in a better place. 



I'll keep standing through the trial of life even if I 

stand alone. 

Through the times when I feel I can't go on, 

I feel a hand pusin' me upward. 



Man, I don't have no time for haters, this journey 

will be love. 

I'm in a much better state of mind. 

And this is where I'll stay. A better place..... 



Can't nobody hurt me, 

Can't nobody fade me, (oh no!) 

I'm resting in a better place. (oh no!) 

Can't nobody harm me, 

Can't nobody touch me. (oh no!) 

I'm resting in a better place. 



Can't nobody hurt me, (no more sorrows) 

I'm okay now. (oh no!) 

I'm resting in a better place. 

I miss you. I'm always in your heart. 

A better place..... 



Can't nobody hurt me, 

Can't nobody fade me, (oh no!) 

I'm resting in a better place.(oh no!) 

Can't nobody harm me, 

Can't nobody touch me.(oh no!) 

I'm resting in a better place. 



Can't nobody hurt me,
