Don Covay - Temptation Was Too Strong

 (versiyon 1)
Metin boyutu: ( + Büyült ) ( - Küçült)   
When we got married

All of our friends were there

Ev'ryone said

We were a happy pair



Together we would have

A home, sweet home

But listen

They didn't know, uh!

You had an outside affair goin' on



Listen!

Listen!



It's too, late (late)

Lord, too late (to late to wake up)

It's too late, it's too late

(It's too late)

Let me tell ya

We've got to break-up

(We've got to break-up)

Lord, you stayed away too long

(Temptation was) too strong

It's too, late (for you)



Hey, listen!

I've have a message for you!



Listen to me!



Spoken:

You know a friend of mine

Called me the other day

By the name of Joe Tex

He said, 'Don, try to *'Hold To What You Got'



But *'Ninety-Nine and a Half' won't do

Like Wilson Pickett said



I tried, *'A Lover's Prayer'

Like Otis Redding said

It just didn't work out



I'm gonna follow

Solomon Burke's advise

*'Tonight's The Night'

It's all over, honey



'Cause I need someone

To *'Stand By Me'

Like Ben E. King said

The rest of my life

Listen!



Baby! Baby!



It's too (late)

You're too late to wake up

(It's too late to wake up)



And let me tell ya somethin' else! 

It's too late

(It's too late) (now!)

I found myself a full time love



Girl, you know

You stayed away too long

Temptation was too strong

It's too late



Spoken:

 

And listen!

I don't want you to come

Knockin' on my do'!

(Too late)



Listen!

May find myself, somebody



To let me sleep late ev'ry Sunday mo'nin

And bring me my breakfast to my bed

And when I have a headache

She comes, she rubs my achin' head



An you listen!

She comfort me

So sweet 'n frail



An let me tell you somethin', Honey!



FADES-



You know, you just not qualified!

I said, you're not qualified!

You're just not qualified to do it!
