What'd I Say Songtext

von Lyle Lovett

[Intro: x6 drum attack organ x6]
Hey Momma don't you treat me wrong
Come and love ya daddy all night long (Alright now-Hey Hey-Alright)

See the girl with the diamond ring
She knows how to shake that thing (Alright now-Hey Hey)
Tell ya Momma
Tel Ya Pa
Gonna send ya back to Arkansas
Oh Yes Maam - If you don't do right - If you don't do right

When ya see me in a misery
Come o' here and sit by me (Oh Yeah Yeah - Alright - Alright)

(Instrumental passages - Country Style) high tansion drums & slide guitar

See the girl with the red dress on
She can do the "Birdland" all night long Yeah Yeah
