| Now listen here…
|
| Everytime I’m talkin bout tomorrow, I’m thinkin bout yesterday
|
| Everytime I go for a ride, you know I end up walkin away
|
| Everytime I feel like jukin, I lose my dance hall shoes
|
| Everytime I wanna make love, I end up making the blues
|
| I just can’t get it right!
|
| No no no
|
| Get it right
|
| Oh yeah yeah!
|
| Love to do right, mama, love to do right, man
|
| Now won’t you walk right up onto the Promise Land
|
| Now won’t you get it right
|
| No no no
|
| Get it right
|
| Oh yeah yeah!
|
| Well the fish can’t swim and the chick can’t fly
|
| But we’ll all be angels in the by and by
|
| Giggin at the razor’s edge
|
| At the brawl, yall, have a ball
|
| Oh come one, come all
|
| Now listen here…
|
| Everytime I wash my feet, I put on dirty socks
|
| Everytime I’m sleepin in, I end up watching the clock tick-tock
|
| Everytime I’m waking, they say I’m loafin' in bed
|
| Everytime I’m smokin', I end up chewin' instead
|
| Now won’t you listen here…
|
| Everytime I see that women, I end up with a friend
|
| Everytime I’m on high times, you know I’m loafin' the street again
|
| Everytime I kill a tick, it turns it was a goon
|
| Everytime I’m right on the money
|
| I spend like I’m loose |
