Close your eyes my sleepy child
Dont let a teardrop fall
There is no need to cry child
There is no need at all
Dry your eyes and sleep now
Let your sweet dreams flow
And when you rise know that Ill be near
Because I love you so

Dont be sad my baby girl

Dear miss lonely hearts
I had to write this letter
To tell you how I came to meet her
She was sweet but I dated her sister
Thats how I made my mistake
And I cant forget her

That I write to this address
So unless

Dont talk about me baby
Dont talk behind my back

Dont talk about me like that

The ladies act

The likes of me and jack

And everyone that used her
Would let her take the blame
And if she dare refused
And if she dare resist
All suggestions that she made were quickly dismissed
til in the end in despair
She threw her hands up in the air
Shed slit her wrists
Cryin

The little girl she comes running home from school
Shes lost her first public fight
Shes so upset as she wipes away her tears
She cant concentrate on her homework that night
And finally when she gets her homework right
Her daddy knows that somethings wrong
But decideds to

The woman she like to rumba
The woman she like calypso
The steel drums drive her crazy
And she cant seem to say no
She just cant seem to resist them, no

Dancing to the steel drums from the caribbean
Drinking jamaican rum

It was a rainy night the night the king went down
Everybody was crying it seemed like sadness had surrounded the town
Me I went to the liquor store
And I bought a bottle of wine and a bottle of gin

Drinking with a close, close friend

Just a little water
Changed my very soul
With just a little water
You have gained controll
It was just a little water
Changed my very life
Just a little water

Changed my very way
Just a little water
Changed me that

The dream was not a vision
Or some preminition like we were told
It was no figment of the imagination
To prove that we could be bought or sold

Stop treating me like I am some
Kind of fool over whose eyes you can pull the wool

She comes home at 5:30
And though her clothes are never dirty
She'll change them just the same
She likes to keep her name

She's giving it all up for love

Tattoo giving it up
Giving it up

Now do you understand
That this was no ordinary man
And do we all agree
That we should use any means nessesary

Like standing in the line
Like pulling at the same time

Do you think all is lost

Or tell her that I love her

Alas no longer
