Street choir; sing me the song for the new day.
Don't make it long, and re-member to sing it the old way.
Let it all out; let your voice ring in the street now.
My fun, will be this one to com-plete now.
Why did you leave A-merica?
Why did you let me down?
And now that things seem better off;
Why do you come a-round?
You know I just can't see you now,
In my new world crystal ball.
You know I just can't free you now;
That's not my job at all.
Move it on up, move it on up by the window.
Mag-nificent flow; let it all go, in the moonglow.
I'll take the wine, I'll take the wine in the gravy.
Ask you the time, and just send the bill to my baby.
Why did you leave A-merica?
Why did you let me down?
And now that things seem better off;
Why do you come a-round?
You know I just can't see you now,
In my new world crystal ball.
You know I just can't free you now;
That's not my job at all.
Why did you leave A-merica?
Why did you let me down?
And now that things seem better off;
Why do you come a-round?
You know I just can't see you now,
In my new world crystal ball.
You know I just can't free you now;
That's not my job at all.
