Lyrics 100 Days, 100 Nights - Sharon Jones, The Dap-Kings

100 Days, 100 Nights

100 days, 100 nights, to know a man’s heart
100 days, 100 nights, to know a man’s heart
And a little more, before, he knows his own
You know a man can play the part of a saint just so long
For a day comes when his true, his true self unfolds, yes it does
He maybe mellow, he maybe kind
Treat you good, all the time
But there’s something just beyond what he’s told
100 days, 100 nights, to know a man’s heart
100 days, 100 nights, to know a man’s heart
And a little more, before, he knows his own
Wait a minute
Maybe I need to slow it down just a little;
take my time
I had a man (100 days), tell me things (100 nights)
Made me feel (100 days), just like a queen (100 nights)
And I thought (100 days), he was the one (100 nights)
I would hold (100 days), oh yes I did (100 nights)
But one day (100 days), I looked around (100 nights)
That old man (100 days), was nowhere to be found (100 nights)
100 days (100 days) for this heart to unfold (100 days 100 nights)
100 days (100 days), 100 nights (100 nights), to know a man’s heart (100 days
100 nights)
100 days (100 days), 100 nights (100 nights), to know a man’s heart (100 days
100 nights)
And a little more, before, he knows his own (100 days 100 nights,
100 days 100 nights, 100 days 100 nights)
