Lyrics Cheer Up My Brother - Johnny Cash, The Platters

Cheer Up My Brother

Boy I was watching you move sort of checking you out
Loving what you do boy we ought to paint the town
You can watch me get to it, double roll and lean
Make up your mind if your liking what you see
Don’t want no flowers, don’t buy me no gifts
I need somebody who can take care of this
Imma loving what you do, cause I know you do it well
You got your game tighter real smart I can tell
Please don’t play that usual game, (the usual game)
The type to put out your flame
I, I, I, I don’t want to shed a tear
and I, I, I, I didn’t want to end up here
Could you give me that dust
Did you through right round
Give me that stuff make you wanna get down
I, I, I didn’t wanna end up here
Yeah I went through your phone and didn’t like what
I’ve seen You promised you’d be true you made a fool out of me My friends tried to warn me that I’d waste my time
I saw your true colours almost lost my mind
Looks like you do the same to all your other girls
Except you bought them flowers and you bought me pearls
When you’re going out tonight I know you’re seeing her again
Saw your picture together, so now you’re kissing all your friends
Oh, please don’t play that usual game, (usual game)
The type to put out your flame
I, I, I, I don’t want to shed a tear
and I, I, I, I didn’t want to end up here
Could you give me that dust
Did you through right round
Give me that stuff make you wanna get down
I, I, I didn’t wanna end up here
If I don’t leave right now
With my wounds still open
Slip right through your hands
Now my heart is broken
I’m moving on, yeah, yeah
I’m moving on, yeah, yeah
I’m moving on, yeah, yeah
I’m moving o’on o’on o’on on
I, I, I, I don’t want to shed a tear
and I, I, I, I didn’t want to end up here
Could you give me that dust
Did you through right round
Give me that stuff make you wanna get down
I, I, I didn’t wanna end up here
