Cause and Effect

Horace Silver

[Verse 1]
Every thought, every word, every little deed
Will in time start to grow once I plant the seed

[Chorus]
Reapin' what I sow
Should not really know
I am the winner and the loser
The blessed and the damned
The cause and effect
Of what I really am

[Verse 2]
Every year, every month, every week or day
I must be careful of what I do and say

[Chorus]
Reapin' what I sow
Should not really know
I am the winner and the loser
The blessed and the damned
The cause and effect
Of what I really am

[Bridge]
I am the jury, I am the judge
What will my verdict be?
Shall I go on and sentence myself
Or shall I set me free?

[Verse 3]
Every rock, every stone, every little weed
If I don't cast them out they will kill the seed

[Chorus]
Reapin' what I sow
Should not really know
I am the winner and the loser
The blessed and the damned
The cause and effect
Of what I really am

[Electric Piano Solo]

[Bridge]
I am the jury, I am the judge
What will my verdict be?
Shall I go on and sentence myself
Or, or shall I set me free?

[Verse 3]
Every rock, every stone, every little weed
If I don't cast them out they will kill the seed

[Chorus]
Reapin' what I sow
Should not really know
I am the winner and the loser
Blessed and the damned
The cause and effect
Of what I really am
