Bilingual
I was headed to the show
Gon' uptown to the Apollo
Got to catch me a glimpse of ol' Jimmy Brown
Someone told me, that he had just died
I lowered my head, and I started to cry
I stood on the 125th Street, and I said
"Well sing it loud, I'm black and proud"
Oh, my baby there, just settle in
Take your worries and put the fire to them
Pour me out hot just like sour wine
I got the money if you got the time
ย
I was talkin' to truck stop Betty
She was wringin' her hands, and they was awfully sweaty
She said her mother died in Brooklyn just yesterday
Then I said Betty, you just hold your horses
'Cause soon they're gonna be changin' courses
And we can live out on the Montana range
It had some great place to raise the kid
Oh, my baby there, just settle in
Take your worries and put the fire to them
Pour me out hot just like sour wine
I got the money if you got the time
ย
Oh, my baby, I'll settle right on in
Take your worries and put the fire to them
Pour me out hot just like sour wine
I got the money if you got the time
Oh, my baby there, just settle right on in
Take your worries and put the fire to them
Pour me out hot just like sour wine
I got the money if you'll be all right now
You're gonna be just fine
