Red Heart District (A Motown Song) Oh now honey, you're a wild honey, always runnin' you dream of love with no nitty gritty doncha know pictures of New York City can't have anything on the real thing anyhow now, darling pretty The streets are owned by Nighthawks & Morningdoves but Mark Twain lives in my guitar piano tinklin', twinklin' like a distant star oh no, my pretty love there you are Tenement resentment the boys all long for her glance ol' worn out Romeo cliches black leather jackets stiched over sunrays love demands a second chance before this red heart greys Baby, tonight, take off the heat and turn on a mean beat please just... Inject me with Martha Reeves to make my feet burn (Oh what a sound) Dissect me with Smokey and I can feel my heart yearn (motoring with Motown) Resurrect me with Marvin & Tammi 'cause I don't want to learn how to live without your love your precious love (oh sugar pie honey bunch) Now my eyes are tired corner intersections combust Jack Kerouac surrenders wicked charms a live wire aching to retire to her lovin' arms oh I watch my Fender rust before her smile so warm That's all for me boys so play me outta here please darlin' don't shed no tears 'cause baby, objects in the rear view mirror are closer than they appear So try to steer clear of any future fear into the red heart district redemtion is so near I can take all the city can inflict 'cause I love you, dear and the way you do the things you do (the way you do the things you do) said the way you do the things only you do, babe (talkin' bout my girl, my girl) right here I found paradise in the world with my girl "Hey, it's me, I'm dynamite and I don't know why" -- Van Morrison, 'Sweet Thing' |
