paroles de chanson Sweet Melinda - Lipbone Redding

I became a warrior when I was in Baltimore
My best friend was a junkie and a whore
We never learned the difference between wrong and right
We were looking for love like stray dogs in the night

And I'd do anything for love and do more for money
I carry it around my neck just like a stone
People see me coming say
"Hey, don't he walk funny"
Once I took a bullet in the bone

And if you see my sweet Melinda
Tell her fireworks are firing up my sky
That the laughter and confetti is falling from the corners of my eyes
I wonder if she thinks I've died...

If you see my sweet Melinda
Tell her that I miss her so
Still love her after all these years

If you see my sweet Melinda
Tell her that I miss her so
Still love her after all these years

Well, I became an outlaw way back in '91
During an incident that started out as fun
Doing it for the thrill 'til somebody got killed
Then changed my name and now I'm on the run

This year I'm on the road
I'm gone to San Francisco
I might lie low for a while out there
Take it to the church dedicated to brother John Coltrane
Brother John Coltrane, The Divine

One rainy night I saw you walking all alone in that crowd
We could have had love and everything that goes with it
If I wasn't so wild, if I wasn't so, so damn proud

Ooooooooh!

If you see my sweet Melinda
Tell her fireworks are firing up my sky
That the laughter and confetti is falling from the corners of my eyes
I hope she's married now with a family, a mansion in the sky
Ain't it funny how time flies

If you see my sweet Melinda
Tell her that I miss her so
Still love her after all these years

If you see my sweet Melinda
Tell her that I miss her so
Still love her after all these years

If you see my sweet Melinda
Tell her that I miss her so
Still love her after all these years

If you see my sweet Melinda
Tell her that I miss her so
Still love her after all these years

Oooooooh!

Sweet Melinda
