Chi Coltrane Lyrics

Ooh! What a good thing I've got
Oh it's such a good thing I've got
I don't think I can stand it

Thunder and Lightning
I tell you it's frightening
It's thunder and lightning
And you're in control

I thought my life was complete
But look what you're doin' to me
Oh! You're makin' me crazy

Thunder and Lightning
I tell you it's frightening
It's thunder and lightning
And you're in control

I don't know how to handle it
It's more than I would dare
I wouldn't try to run from it
It reaches me everywhere
I'm feelin' dizzy and weak
You make me forget how to speak
I can feel it happening

Thunder and Lightning
I tell you it's frightening
It's thunder and lightning
And you're in control

I don't know how to handle it
It's more than I would dare
I wouldn't try to run from it
It reaches me everywhere

Ooh! What a good thing I've got
Oh it's such a good thing I've got
I don't think I can stand it.

Are you afraid of me baby;
A little girl like me baby?
Why can't you talk straight, and tell the truth?
Can't you take some sorrow,
If I'll be gone tomorrow?

You lie to me about what's been goin' down
I'm westward bound--
I'm westward bound
I'm walkin' down the road with the sunshine on my hair
Life is really something I can feel it everywhere
Well, I guess it's been sometime since I got high on breathin' air
Without a care-- without a care
I don't know where I'm goin' I'm just heading toward the sun.
I feel so good it seems as if my life has just begun,
I don't know why I took so long to do what must be done;
It's Goodbye John--

You came in my home and took from me
All that I had to give
I thought that we would be good friends
For as long as we should live
I had some past experience with
People just like you
But I never thought you were that kind
So what was I to do
You were my friend, you were my friend
How can you stand and lie to me
And look me in the face
I wish I knew what strange disease
Could make you act that way
All the things we did together
I've known you for so long
I always did believe in you
How could I be so wrong?
You were my friend, you were my friend
How could you let me down? You were my friend
I guess for the sake of all we had
I should try to understand
But it just doesn't make much sense to me
To trust in you again
I wish we could forget it all
But I don't think that we can
Oh, why did this ever happen to us
My best and dearest friend
You were my friend, you were my friend
How could you let me down?
You were my friend
...Well, I guess that friendships
All come to an end.

I know I've hurt you
And I wonder if you know
That I never really meant to
No I never really meant to
Things have happened in my life
Which have brought me to the way I am today
Don't you know-- For you I'd gladly change

Turn me around, turn me around
Lead me to the place I should be found
Turn me around, turn me around
Lift me to higher ground
If you really really want to
You know that you can mold me-- to you

It would be so easy
To give up and walk away
But please don't let that happen...
We just cannot let that happen
Things that I have done to you
Have made you think that I don't really care
How can I show you you I do?

Turn me around, turn me around
Lead me to the place I should be found
Turn me around, turn me around
Lift me to higher ground.

Go Like Elijah

Someday my time to die will come.
When that will be, I do not know
I only know that when I have to go.
Yeah, when I go— I wanna go
Just let me go— Lord, when I go
Yeah, when I go— Lord, let me go

Just let me go like Elijah when I go
I want to rise right up into the sky
And ride white horses with fiery eyes
Lord for my sins I apologize

Just let me go — Lord when I go
When my time comes for me to go
Just let me go like Elijah when I go
I don't want no tombstone above my head
And I don't want no pinebox for my bed
And I don't want anyone to say I'm dead.
I don't want no one cryin'
Or feelin' sad
Or standin' in the rain without their hat
I wanna go up happy — Imagine that
Yeah, when I go— I wanna go
Just let me go -—Lord, when I go,
Yeah, when I go— Lord, let me go
Just let me go like Elijah when I go
I want to rise right up into the sky
And ride white horses with fiery eyes
Lord for my sins I apologize
Just let me go— Lord when I go
When my time comes for me to go
Just let me go like Elijah when I go...

Titre: "Go Like Elijah"

The Tree

I took my troubles to the tree
Hoping I could find m way to peace
I didn't know where my life would lead
So I took my troubles to the tree
I told my story to the breeze
When no one seemed to listen to me
And like the breeze I now am free
Since I told my story to the breeze

I took my troubles to the tree
And God's own son looked down on me
All I know is I was blind and now I see
Since I took my troubles to the tree
And I believe we all can find the way to peace
If we take our troubles to the tree

Feelin' Good

I've been alone, for a time—
Oh yeah baby—
I've been stung so I let
Love go by without waving
'Cause I never thought I'd fall in love again
And I didn't try 'cause I think of when
I was so in love
An' it didn't work out
But now you came in an' you make me wanna' shout
'Cause I'm feelin' good — you've got me feelin' good
O yeah I'm feelin' good
You've got me feelin' good
I don't know where you've been
Such a long time abiding
But I'm glad that you've finally come out of hiding
And now I don't care what my life has been
'Cause I know I'll never go back again
You're heavy babe got me singin' all day
An' I don't know how to say it any other way
I'm just feelin' good — you've got me feelin' good
Oh yeah I'm feelin' good
You've got me feelin' good
You brought joy to my soul
And it's been so long since
I felt this way
I just wake up smiling every day
I've got so much love
In my heart for you
And I'm gonna let all that
Love come on through
I'm just feelin' good — you've got me feelin' good
Oh yeah I'm feelin' good
You've got me feelin' good

It's Really Come to This

Got my things all together
And I'm ready to leave you baby
But it doesn't come easy
And there's something that holds me back here
And as I look around the room
Happiness haunts me
Lord knows it's been here
But something's happened
And it's now very clear
What went wrong?
But I have to be strong
We just can't go on
If it makes any difference
My life won't be the same without you
I'll never forget you
Or the good times we've had together
And as the tears roll down my face
I guess I'm still trying
To think of an answer
A way under heaven
To tell me I should stay
I don't want to leave
I just can't believe
That's it's really come to this
Yes, it's really come to this.

Titre: "I Will Not Dance"

I Will Not Dance

Did you say you're a public servant?
Well, then let me ask you why
You're keeping the public uninformed
When you're not feedin' us with lies
Listen to our founding fathers
Sit down and read the Bill of Rights
You'd better learn how to play the game by the rules
Or you're gonna have an awful fight
'Cause I will not dance to your music
And I will not drink your wine
And I will not toast to your success
Because you're no friend of mine, oh yeah you know it
You're no friend of mine
Why do you take my brother?
And why do you take my son?
Shipping them off to another land
To fight a war that can't be won
You can't say you don't know better
Because by now the truth is out
The people are all sick of following you
Because you don't know what it's all about

That's right, you don't know what it's all about
So I will not dance to your music
And I will not drink your wine
And I will not toast to your success
Because you're no friend of mine, oh yeah you know it
You're no friend of mine
I'm the younger generation and I love my country land
I can't stand to watch the nation fall apart
'Cause you won't understand
God help you "public servant"
When you stand before the King
When your works are shown and your lies are known
And your wasted life won't mean a thing
So pay attention to me as I sing
'Cause I will not dance to your music
And I will not drink your wine
And I will not toast to your success
Because you're no friend of mine, oh yeah you know it
You're no friend of mine.

Well I think that I've cried long enough
And I guess I've tried too hard
And I've had my share of worry
That's for sure
A man can really bring you down
If you let him get on your heart
I've got to get myself together
For the cure--
It's time to come in out of the rain
Ain't gonna let it pour
On my life anymore
I'm looking for a better way
To live the only life that I have got
And now I know I'll find it
You just see
I've gone though all those changes
That only bring you down
And nothing's gonna put a weight on me
It's time to come in out of the rain
Ain't gonna let it pour
On my life anymore.

Life is like a ferris wheel
It keeps on turning without feel
As it spins round and round
It picks you up and lets you down
Up and down and back again
The world seems to be in a spin
Will this crazy cycle ever end?
And when it does-- what then?

The sun goes down and comes up again
I can't remember where I've been
The Ferris wheel goes round and round
I wonder if I'll hit the ground
I almost do-- I almost do,
But then somehow I've made it through!
The wheel climbs on-- I'm up on top again
Where is my life leading to?
Whatever am I coming to?
Sometimes fast-- sometimes slow
It makes a circle as it goes
As I face the ground below,
I fear the wheel may lose control
I know that I've been here before--
I do no know much more

Then the wheel begins to rise
And I can almost touch the sky
It feels so good it makes me glad
And now my life doesn't feel so bad
The good and bad times come and go,
As round and round the wheel must go
And you and I -- ride this wheel of life.
