Never thought I would, find the words that could. Stand up through any weather. Something I could say, you could hear today. But stay with you forever.
I work hard for what I got. Plenty overtime. When I clock out I'm worn and beat down. But still ready to fly. ( here you come with those ). unsteady eyes.
Down, where I'm going is, down. 'Cause you dance me around. Made me too dizzy to see. . Down, boy, did you let me down?. There's a permanent frown. Where my smile used to be.
I watch your lips moving. I see the words taking shape. But love's like a language. I cannot translate. I can't afford to be careless. And let you in.
As gravity is to every human. As the earth is to the trees. I couldn't drift away from your love. Because it's implanted in my memory. . If there was some uncertainty.
Congo, get to, get to Congo. Get to, get to Congo. Get to, get to Congo. Get to, get to Congo. . Now could we go to the square they call Congo?. I need to go and lay my feet upon the stone.
In a land far away where the sun doesn't spare a soul. And a twisted tradition has a girl in a strangle hold. Lies a desert with the footprints of little girls with a secret.
Across the room, across the street. Across the water where the two big blues meet. Across the widest space 'til you reach infinity. My love will still be.
Got these feet in these shoes. They walked a mile or two. Got these legs they've done work. That's left them black and blue. . Got these hips they are wide.
I dream of you nights. daytime too. Like someone slipped me something. And that something's you. Almost walked into a wall. Imagining your embrace. Had to snap myself out of the thought.
All my friends had to ask me. Sump'in they didn't understand. How I get, all the womens. In the palm of my hand. . I told 'em treat her like a lady. Do the best you can do.
It was late one Friday evenin', it began to rain and snow. Letter from my baby, say, she ain't comin' home no mo'. I gotta call up Joe Friday and put him on my baby's trail.
Roosevelt is a mighty fine man, darlin'. Roosevelt is a mighty fine man, darlin'. Roosevelt is a mighty fine man. Gonna be the president all by land, darlin'.
Goin' down in Chickasaw, gon' take that right hand road. Goin' down in Chickasaw, gon' take that right hand road. Bet I ain't gon' stop till I come up in big mama's door.
I spend the night in a chair. Thinking she'll be there. But she never comes. . And then I wake up. Wipe the sleep from my eyes. And I rise to face. Another day without her.
Every day without love. Is a day of sorrow. Don't wait til tomorrow. To wait for love is just. To waste your life away. . Dreams come true and if you.
You see this guy, this guy's in love with you. Yes I'm in love who looks at you the way I do. When you smile I can tell it know each other very well. .
Winds may blow over the icy sea. I'll take with me the warmth of thee. A taste of honey. A taste much sweeter than wine. . I will return. I'll return.
Sunny, yesterday my life was filled with rain. Sunny, you smiled at me and really eased the pain. Oh, the dark days are done. The bright days are here.
There was a little spanish flea. A record star he thought he'd be. He heard of singers like Beatles. and The Chipmunks he'd seen on TV. Why not a little spanish flea?.
