Some people say you got a psychadelic presense
|
Shinin in the park with a bioluminescense
|
Down these city streets I see you comin'
|
From afar and I know
|
|
In this world ain't nobody's
|
Got the shine like you
|
Got to shine in this world
|
Ain't nobody's got the shine
|
Like you got to shine
|
In this world
|
|
Nobody sings like Mary Sue Bell
|
Nobody prays like Willie MacTell
|
Nobody walks a mile in my stolen shoes like I do
|
|
In this world ain't nobody's
|
Got the shine like you
|
Got to shine in this world
|
Ain't nobody's got the shine
|
Like you got to shine
|
In this world
|
|
I still miss my lonesome lover
|
And I cain't find no single other
|
To take his empty place in my heart of hearts
|
I told him
|
|
In this world ain't nobody's
|
Got the shine like you
|
Got to shine in this world
|
Ain't nobody's got the shine
|
Like you got to shine
|
In this world
|
|
The ghost of Shakespeare's on the street
|
Corderoy hat layin at his feet
|
Howlin in the harp these dirty city blues fallin hard
|
|
In this world ain't nobody's
|
Got the shine like you
|
Got to shine in this world
|
Ain't nobody's got the shine
|
Like you got to shine
|
In this world
|
|
Zora Neale Hurston told her story
|
And they kicked her out of new york city
|
Just like jesus christ in gallilee like I said
|
|
In this world ain't nobody's
|
Got the shine like you
|
Got to shine in this world
|
Ain't nobody's got the shine
|
Like you got to shine
|
In this world
|
|
Some people say I got a psychadelic presense
|
Shinin' in the park with a bioluminescense
|
Down these city streets I see you comin'
|
From afar, and I know
|
Ain't nobody's got the shine
|
Like you got to shine in this world
|
Ain't nobody's got the shine
|
Like you got to shine in this world.
