| With a hand full of rain
|
| I come steppin' around your way
|
| With a cold hearted stare I can give
|
| Well as I can take
|
| I wanna tell ya
|
| Mahalia
|
| I won’t fail ya
|
| Mahalia
|
| But this life’s full of promises
|
| We’d keep but we never make
|
| With a mouthful of gold
|
| I come raid your refrigerator
|
| About a thousand miles ago
|
| I gave you all that you could ever take
|
| I wanna swear to ya
|
| Mahalia
|
| I won’t fail ya
|
| Mahalia
|
| It is life’s full of deals
|
| We could keep but we never make

| I’m right here
|
| I wanna be near ya
|
| I wanna live
|
| I wanna live
|
| In this life full of deals
|
| We could keep but we always break
|
| In a room full of stars
|
| I can see you’re the moon for me
|
| I’ll give you a bill for every nook
|
| Give two eyes for every angle
|
| Yeah, oh yeah
|
| I wanna tell ya
|
