Some people say you got a psychadelic presense |
|
Shinin in the park with a bioluminescense |
|
Down these city streets I see you comin' |
|
From afar and I know |
|
In this world ain't nobody's |
|
Got the shine like you |
|
Got to shine in this world |
|
Ain't nobody's got the shine |
|
Like you got to shine |
|
In this world |
|
Nobody sings like Mary Sue Bell |
|
Nobody prays like Willie MacTell |
|
Nobody walks a mile in my stolen shoes like I do |
|
In this world ain't nobody's |
|
Got the shine like you |
|
Got to shine in this world |
|
Ain't nobody's got the shine |
|
Like you got to shine |
|
In this world |
|
I still miss my lonesome lover |
|
And I cain't find no single other |
|
To take his empty place in my heart of hearts |
|
I told him |
|
In this world ain't nobody's |
|
Got the shine like you |
|
Got to shine in this world |
|
Ain't nobody's got the shine |
|
Like you got to shine |
|
In this world |
|
The ghost of Shakespeare's on the street |
|
Corderoy hat layin at his feet |
|
Howlin in the harp these dirty city blues fallin hard |
|
In this world ain't nobody's |
|
Got the shine like you |
|
Got to shine in this world |
|
Ain't nobody's got the shine |
|
Like you got to shine |
|
In this world |
|
Zora Neale Hurston told her story |
|
And they kicked her out of new york city |
|
Just like jesus christ in gallilee like I said |
|
In this world ain't nobody's |
|
Got the shine like you |
|
Got to shine in this world |
|
Ain't nobody's got the shine |
|
Like you got to shine |
|
In this world |
|
Some people say I got a psychadelic presense |
|
Shinin' in the park with a bioluminescense |
|
Down these city streets I see you comin' |
|
From afar, and I know |
|
Ain't nobody's got the shine |
|
Like you got to shine in this world |
|
Ain't nobody's got the shine |
|
Like you got to shine in this world. |
