Blowin' Yo

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'
end, 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.

The wine beneath the bed,
The things we've done and said
And all the memories that come glancing back to me
In my loneliness
You're standing in the breach
Beyond that stretch, but our love will reach
Unconsciousness that find me sometimes wondering
Where you're at.
Hmm, take me back again,
Take me back one more time, spanish rose.

The way you pulled the gate
Behind you when you said, "it ain't too late,
Come on, let's have a ball
And swing the town tonight."
And hoping you'd come through
And many others, too,
And all the friends we used to have in days gone by,
I'm wondering
If you'll take me back again,
Take me back one more time, spanish rose.

And when the lights went out
And no one was abandoning the country in full bloom,
In the room we danced
And many hearts were torn
And when the word went around that everything was wrong
And couldn't be put right
It tore me up, it tore me up.

In slumber you did sleep,
The window i did creep
And touch your raven hair and sing that song
Again to you.
You did not even wince,
You thought i was the prince
To come and take you from your misery
And lonely castle walls.
Ah, take me back again,
Take me back one more time, spanish rose.

(fadeout)
Ah ah, ah ah,
Mmmj, mmm,
Da da da di da da da ...

Little gal, little girl, lord, you know it's true,
Little gal, little girl, lord, you know it's true,
I don't wanna stop rockin' and rollin' with you.

Are you gonna let me stand alone ?
Are you gonna let me stand alone ?
Caught you this morning before your daddy came home.

And i done more for you than your daddy has ever done,
I done more for you than your daddy has ever done,
Gave you my jelly roll and he ain't give you none.
Let's go, eric.

Don't you ever go down, down on curzon street, it's bad.
Don't you ever go down, down on curzon street.
That's where old john flogs his daily meat.

Maybe sometime he say leave the little boy and the girl behind.
I got messed up round somewhere called notting hill gate,
I lived there for a while, but i moved out and when i moved out i was in such a state,
I've never gone back there,

But i, i'm sure i done more for you than your daddy has ever done, baby,
Made you learn your syllables.
Done more for you than your daddy has ever done, all right, ha ha,
Gave you my jelly roll and he ain't give you none.
Stay on the move.

In the back street, in the back street i gave you my jelly roll,
Ah, i gave it to you, ha ha.
Remember when we were down in the, the alley
And i said the lights were out, baby this is it you know, ha ha ha,
All right, we got a good thing going.
You can leave now if you don't like what's happening.
You know we got a... a few things going, you know, ha ha,
It's a drag, ha ha, huh, that's what you call it.

Who drove the red sports car from the mansion
And laid upon the grass in summer time ?
And who done me out high time fashion
And made me read between the lines ?
And who said, "follow the man, it's your only chance,
Sit on your throne, you got to make it on your own, on your own"?

And who said, "ha, ha, look at you, look at you,
You got jam on your face."
And who did your homework and read your bible
And signed your name every place ?
And who said, "fortunes untold don't go by gold,
You're much better known, you got to make it on your own,
On your own." ah, ah, huh uh.

And do you remember, do you remember this time,
I said a long time ago when i came walkin' down,
I came walkin' down, ha, by maggie's place, ha ha ha,
It started comin' on rain, huh, it started comin' on rain,
'cause i had nothing on but a shirt and a pair of pants
And i was getting wet, i was getting wet, saturated, saturated there,
And maggie opened up the window and jane swung out her right arm,
She said, "hi!" i said. "hi, how're you doing, baby ?"
She said, "come on in out the rain, come on in out the rain,
Lord, come on in out the rain, sit down by the fireside,
And dry yourself." achoo, do it, do it, ha ha ha, i got caught,
I got caught in a, in a bag, in the bag, oh lord,
I said, "i don't mind if i do, i don't mind if i do." ha, aah...
