Fortunata woman, |
|
you know I wanted to fly, |
|
make it by myself alone. |
|
Now I'm lookin' for a man |
|
with a silver dollar shoeshine, |
|
I gotta get a way back home. |
|
Listen to me, woman, |
|
now can't you hear me callin', |
|
I've got a lot of love to do. |
|
Don't you know I'm gonna cry some, |
|
I know I'm gonna die some, |
|
I gotta get back to you. |
|
Chorus |
|
Gotta get back, gotta get back, |
|
gotta get, gotta get back to you. |
|
Gotta get back, |
|
gotta get back, |
|
gotta get, |
|
gotta get back to you. |
|
Fortunata woman, |
|
the monkey man's dead |
|
and the junkie didn't get too far. |
|
But I'm singin' my song, |
|
'cuz I got my head, |
|
and my bed, and my red guitar. |
|
I'm a-rollin' down the highway, |
|
now don't you get in my way, |
|
Mister, I'm a comin' through. |
|
Well, I know I'm gonna cry some, |
|
you know I'm gonna die some, |
|
I gotta get back to you. |
|
Gotta get back, gotta get back, |
|
gotta get, gotta get back to you. |
|
Gotta get back, |
|
gotta get back, |
|
gotta get, |
|
gotta get back to you. |
|
Gotta get back, gotta get back, |
|
gotta get, gotta get back to you. |
|
Gotta get back, |
|
gotta get back, |
|
gotta get, |
|
gotta get back to you. |
