Now listen, Julie baby, |
|
it ain't natural for you to cry in the midnight. |
|
It ain't natural for you to cry way into midnight through, |
|
Until the wee small hours long 'fore the break of dawn, |
|
Oh Lord, huh uh ha. Ha. |
|
|
|
|
|
Now Julie, an' there ain't nothin' on my mind |
|
More further 'way than what you're lookin' for. |
|
I see the way you jumped at me, Lord, from behind the door |
|
And looked into my eyes. |
|
Your a little star struck innuendos |
|
Inadequacies an' foreign bodies, |
|
And the sunlight shining through the crack in the window pane |
|
Numbs my brain, |
|
And the sunlight shining through the crack in the window pane |
|
Numbs my brain, oh Lord. |
|
|
|
|
|
Ha, so open up the window and let me breathe. |
|
I said open up the window, shh shh shh shh shh and let me breathe. |
|
I'm looking down to the street below, Lord, I cried for you, |
|
Ha ha, I cried, I cried for you, ha ha. Oh, Lord. |
|
|
|
|
|
The cool room, Lord is a fool's room. |
|
The cool room, Lord is a fool's room. |
|
And I can almost smell your T.B. sheets |
|
And I can almost smell your T.B. sheets |
|
On your sick bed. |
|
|
|
|
|
I gotta go, I gotta go |
|
And you said, "Please stay, I wanna, I wanna, |
|
I want a drink of water, I want a drink of water, |
|
Go in the kitchen get me a drink of water." |
|
I said, "I gotta go, I gotta go, baby." |
|
I said, "I'll send, I'll send somebody around here later. |
|
You know we got John comin' around here later |
|
With a bottle of wine for you, baby - but I gotta go." |
|
|
|
|
|
The cool room, Lord is a fool's room, |
|
The cool room, Lord, Lord is a fool's room, a fool's room. |
|
And I can almost smell your T.B. sheets, |
|
I can almost smell your T.B. sheets, T.B. |
|
|
|
|
|
I gotta go, I gotta go. |
|
I'll send around, send around one that grumbles later on, babe. |
|
We'll see what I can pick up for you, you know. |
|
Yeah, I got a few things gotta do. |
|
Don't worry about it, don't worry about it, don't worry. |
|
Huh uh, go, go, go, I've gotta go, gotta go, gotta go, gotta go, |
|
Gotta go, gotta go, huh uh, all right, all right, huh huh huh. |
|
|
|
|
|
I turned on the radio, |
|
If you wanna hear a few tunes, I'll turn on the radio for you. |
|
There you go, there you go, there you go, baby, there you go, huh. |
|
|
|
|
|
You'll be all right, too, huh huh, ha ha, yeah. |
|
I know it ain't funny, it ain't runny at all, baby, |
|
Always laying in the cool room, man, laying in the cool room, |
|
In the cool room, in the cool room. |
