Lyrics:
good everywhere
We went out last night
Well, you know I'm a music man
I grew up in East Tennessee
But last night I was everything
When I got a few
Baby, when we're walking by and we happen to meet another guy
Don't give him the eye
That's a no no
No no no no
No no no no no
Sugar, when
sides
On the run to the outside of everything
Shot by both sides
They must have come to a secret understanding
New offences always in my nerves
They're
Copy cat man, copy all your shit man [?]
Steal your gold man, right where you stand man
Hold what you got, everything closely
Can't respect you,
you make everything seem right"
And then I'll hear you calling in my name
And I'll answer
"My Darling, I may be your man"
Since before man could see
There was eternity
After man is come and gone
Eternity lingers on, eternity lingers on
Everything crawl, creep, or fly
Just
Do you remember we were sitting there by the water?
You put your arm around me for the first time
You made a rebel of a careless man's careful
of another man's shoes
You'll see by the time you get back
This whole world would be a whole lot better place
If we'd all just embrace the fact
That people
man
For everything you got comes from his hand
Food, water, the clothes you wear
How many of y'all niggas really care?
We don't care
Let's define this
loved
Had all turned wicked and bad
As He looked over His creation
He was grieved by His own plan
But just before He destroyed everything He loved
He
won't be caught
Something's happened to me day by day
My pebble on the beach is getting washed away
I've given everything that was mine to give
(we'll be forever loving Jah) there'll be no end
So, old man river
Don't cry for me
I've got a running stream
Of love, you see
So, no matter what
Between a man and a woman
You can run from love
And if it's really love it will find you
Catch you by the heel
But you can't be numb for love
it's a video dream
Watch the preacher man work the T.V. screen
He'll take your money, love and promise everything
Ain't no shortcut to salvation
Well I've just left my home friends where I couldn't sleep
For missin' a man that I couldn't keep
She just walked out and left me for somebody else
you, understand
Little girl, take me by my hand
I want you, understand
I want to be your loving man
When that evening sun goes down
If it's nice, we'll
Vaguely inspired by an Otis Spann number,
And again it's an attempt to widen
The scope of a plain 12 bar sequence,
In fact the verses are 14
I can think of younger days when living for my life
Was everything a man could wanna do
I could never see tomorrow
But I was never told about
inside
I'm sufferin'
(Sufferin')
I'm sufferin'
(Sufferin')
I'm sufferin'
(Sufferin')
Oh yeah
(Sufferin')
I got everything a man could want
But
(we'll be forever loving Jah) there'll be no end
So, old man river
Don't cry for me
I've got a running stream
Of love, you see
So, no matter what
was
I don't recognize that guy
Oh I can't imagine where I'd be
Without you by my side
I'm a better man since I love you
I'm a better man since I
love should mean
Now I know that I did not know much
'Cause you taught me everything
I can't hold back these tears
Let me cry
(although a man's
you know what it is
Yeah, yeah, uh-huh, you know what it is
Y'all already know what it is, man
If you don't, you should by now
Reppin' my town, when
eighteen years on the assembly line
Just gettin' by with a little bit of overtime
And that could be the end of this story of mine but it's just
