Old Jarrow lyrics
it rained all day it rained all night
When old jarrow was born
he wore no suit of armor
in a field of blazing corn
why don't you sack her?
why don't you track her?\
why don't you financially back her?
one more time around then baby
stoned cold king in a court of glass
said he loved jarrow the best
and watermelon woman
spat me out with all the rest
oh then she told me
she told me so coldly
somebody made a telephone call
and so they sold me
One more time around then baby
Make a stand drink a little wine
and eat if we get a job
prostrated on the a road
we are asking
for over an hour
we gazed at the tower
I thought it was falling
but it was only a shower
one more time around then baby
Listening to Cio-Cio San, fall in love all over again
I'm a lot like you so please, hello, I'm here, I'm waiting
I think I'd be good for you and you'd be good for me
How stupid is it? I can't talk about it
I gotta sing about it and make a record of my heart
How stupid is it? Won't you gimme a minute
Just come up to me and say hello to my heart
How stupid is it? For all I know you want me too
And maybe you just don't know what to do
Or maybe you're scared to say
"I'm falling for you"
I wish I could get my head out of the sand
'Cause I think we'd make a good team
And you would keep my fingernails clean
But that's just a stupid dream that I won't realize
'Cause I can't even look in your eyes without shaking and I ain't faking
I'll bring home the turkey if you bring home the bacon
I'm a lot like you so please, hello, I'm here, I'm waiting
I think I'd be good for you and you'd be good for me
I'm a lot like you
I'm a lot like you
I'm a lot like you
And I'm waiting
I think I'd be good for you and you'd be good for me
