Lyrics:
How should I begin?
This is the story of a boy named Lonnie Lynn
As I said it, the spirits here whip me
He was raised in the belly of the city
just how great you are?

fight
Beat ya ass like I'm Vera, you aint quick enough tonight
It's Harlem night how it's black and white
Cause my girlfriends great, and y'all just nice
Standing back I can't believe
How you've led me on
And judging by the things you say
There's gotta be something wrong
What you telling me
you'll pray for me
Promise this, be the last to kiss my lips
By a thread we're hanging on
And I hope you don't let go
If you ever leave me
Know I wanna go
silent one
I'm the one left in the dust
I'm an insider, I been burned by the fire
And I've had to live with some hard promises
I've crawled
through
Ten thousand promises, ten thousand ways to lose
And you held it all but you were careless to let it fall
You held it all and I was by your
Out the blue you came to me
And blew away life's misery
Out the blue life's energy
Out the blue you came to me.
Every day I thank the lord
wish you could sell
If teardrops could be bottled
There'd be swimming pools filled by models
Told "a tight dress is what makes you a whore"
If "I
If I could hold you in the arms of love tonight
I'd never let you go
As the hours go by I'd show you why we've waited for this
As two lovers
I can't forget the night I met you
That's all I'm dreaming of
And now you call it madness
But I call it love
You made a promise to be faithful
said "Before the sheriff comes I wanna tell you," Said "Listen boy
Learn to hoist a jack and learn to lay a track learn to pick and shovel too
And take
through
Ten thousand promises, ten thousand ways to lose
And you held it all but you were careless to let it fall
You held it all and I was by your
If I could hold you in the arms of love tonight
I'd never let you go
As the hours go by I'd show you why we've waited for this
As two lovers
I can't forget the night I met you
That's all I'm dreaming of
And now you call it madness
But I call it love
You made a promise to be faithful
If I could hold you in the arms of love tonight
I'd never let you go
As the hours go by I'd show you why we've waited for this
As two lovers
If I could hold you in the arms of love tonight
I'd never let you go
As the hours go by I'd show you why we've waited for this
As two lovers

With the newest Maybach and inside a black card

Promise to get ya body so

Leaving on a Southern train
Only yesterday you lied
Promises of what I seemed to be
Only watched the time go by
All of these things
anything that you need
We do
You'll know, by the love in my eyes
And the beat of my heart
I'll be there
You'll know, cause you'll never be lonely
Come sit by my side little darlin'
Come lay your cool hand on my brow
And promise me that you will
Never be nobody's darlin' but mine
Be
up by dogs
The stiches torn and broke
The raw meat fist you choke
Has hit the bloodlite
Glass traps open and close on
Night flights
Broken
why it's never in our hands?
It's not my fault that you feel alone
I've kept my promises, I might be gone
All by myself, I've been holding
Stand By Your Man. That's what I'm talkin' about.
