Lyrics Bob Marley – Misty Morning
Text:
Misty mornin’, don’t see no sun;
I know you’re out there somewhere having fun.
There is one mystery — yea-ea-eah — I just can’t express:
To give your more, to receive your less.
«Don’t jump in the water, if you can’t swim.»
The power of philosophy — yea-ea-eah — floats through my head
Light like a feather, heavy as lead;
Light like a feather, heavy as lead, yeah.
See no sun! Oh.
Time has come, I want you —
I want you to straighten out my tomorrow! Uh.
I want — I want — I want you — (tomorrow).
Oh, wo-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah!
I want you to straighten out my (tomorrow)!
Misty (morning) mornin’, don’t see no sun;
I know you’re out there somewhere having fun.
Mysteries I just can’t express:
How can you ever give your more to receive your less?
Like my good friend said, in a reggae riddim:
«You can’t jump — you can’t jump in the water, if you can’t swim.»
I want you (I want you) — I want you to straighten out my today —
My tomorrow — my-my-my — my — my
(I want you to straighten out my tomorrow).
On a misty morning, uh! (I want you to straighten out my tomorrow).
Oh-oh oh-oh-oh-oh!
(I want you to straighten out my tomorrow)
Straighten out my tomorrow — my tomorrow! Need some straightenin’ out!
(I want you to straighten out my tomorrow)
Mist! Mm. (I want) Mist! (you to straighten out my tomorrow)
fadeout
