Ray Charles Lyrics - Old 97's

We put on Ray Charles and broke up 

You were packed and gone when I woke up 

Ray just kept on singing, he had Georgia on his mind 

You just keep on leaving, you keep leaving all the time 

Wonder if the stars will die tonight 

Yeah I wonder if the cats and dogs are gonna fight 

There's no rest for the restless, so I doubt that you'll sleep well 

I don't think that I will, my head's ringing like a bell 

Love is blind and I don't blame her 

'Cause lately I ain't been too much to see 

I'd bring some girl home but then I'd have to pay her 

Won't you come home with me Rosemary? 

When I walked in the bar you tried to hide 

But I took my old place right by your side 

You looked like a raccoon with those circles round your eyes 

If my offer is improper, please come home with me tonight 

Well, I'll prick myself and see if blood comes out 

I'll play until the whole damn tape runs out 

I'll put on that Ray Charles record, if you'll make some drinks 

Nothing is the matter, it don't matter what you think 

Love is blind and I don't blame her 

'Cause we all could use a little sympathy 

I'd bring some girl home but then I'd have to pay her 

Won't you come home with me Rosemary? 

Love is blind and I don't blame her 

'Cause lately I ain't been too much to see 

I'd bring some girl home but then I'd have to pay her 

Won't you come home with me Rosemary?
