Don't worry 'bout me, it's all over now. Though I may be blue, I'll manage somehow.. Love can't be explained, can't be controlled. One day it's warm, next day it's cold..
I told Mary about us, told her about our great sin. Mary just cried and forgave me, Mary took me back again. She said if I wanted my freedom, I could be free evermore.
Crash on the levee, mama,. Water's gonna overflow,. Swamp's gonna rise,. No boat's gonna row.. Now, you can train on down. To Williams Point,. You can bust your feet,.
I'm goin' get up in the mornin',. I believe I'll dust my broom. I'm goin' get up in the mornin',. I believe I'll dust my broom. Girlfriend, the black man you been lovin', girlfriend, can't get my room.
Do you want to dance under the moon light. Squeeze me all through the night. Oh, baby, do you want to dance. . Do you want to dance and hold my hand. Tell me I'm your lover man.
Did you ever want to cry but you didn't know just why. Did you ever sit up all night long. Just listening to that same old song. The one they played when she said nothing could go wrong.
While I'm far away from you my baby. I know it's hard for you my baby. Because it's hard for me my baby. And the darkest hour is just before dawn. . Each night before you go to bed my baby.
Callin' out around the world. Are you ready for a brand new beat. Summer's here and the time is right. For dancin' in the streets. They're dancin' in Chicago.
I wouldn't want to be a chimney sweep. All black from head to foot. From climbing in them chimneys. And cleaning out that soot. With a broom and ladder and pail.
