Fortunata woman,
|
you know I wanted to fly,
|
make it by myself alone.
|
Now I'm lookin' for a man
|
with a silver dollar shoeshine,
|
I gotta get a way back home.
|
|
Listen to me, woman,
|
now can't you hear me callin',
|
I've got a lot of love to do.
|
Don't you know I'm gonna cry some,
|
I know I'm gonna die some,
|
I gotta get back to you.
|
|
[Chorus]
|
Gotta get back, gotta get back,
|
gotta get, gotta get back to you.
|
Gotta get back,
|
gotta get back,
|
gotta get,
|
gotta get back to you.
|
|
Fortunata woman,
|
the monkey man's dead
|
and the junkie didn't get too far.
|
But I'm singin' my song,
|
'cuz I got my head,
|
and my bed, and my red guitar.
|
|
I'm a-rollin' down the highway,
|
now don't you get in my way,
|
Mister, I'm a comin' through.
|
Well, I know I'm gonna cry some,
|
you know I'm gonna die some,
|
I gotta get back to you.
|
|
Gotta get back, gotta get back,
|
gotta get, gotta get back to you.
|
Gotta get back,
|
gotta get back,
|
gotta get,
|
gotta get back to you.
|
|
Gotta get back, gotta get back,
|
gotta get, gotta get back to you.
|
Gotta get back,
|
gotta get back,
|
gotta get,
|
gotta get back to you.
|
[Repeat until fade out]
