Lyrics Grits – Pardon Me Yo
Text:
Woman speaking in Spanish:
Tambien, como la tierra, yo pertenezco a todos.
No hay un solo gota de odio en mi pecho, sabiersas.
Abra mis manos, dispersio las uvas en el viento.
Chorus (Identified woman singing):
Patiently wait for you, pardon me yo
Hopelessly wait for you, pardon me yo
Can’t get away from you, pardon me yo
Don’t know what to do without you
Pardon me yo-o-o-o, pardon me yo, pardon me yo
Pardon me yo-o-o-o, pardon me yo, pardon me yo
Verse 1 (Coffee):
When I sit and think, scatter my brains across the city.
Then I’m tickled pink, over matters that get me giddy.
Get me in a stink, it’s the baddest that make me silly.
Do I need a drink? No! Jumpstart a party of pity.
It’s smart to be cautious, really, and feel, you gotta feel me.
Ain’t tryin’ to be outta’ order, just breakin’ me offa’ quarter.
Switchin’ positions-Wishin’ the sink in the kitchen was bolted.
I’m on the brink if they can get it, in my palm, and I hold it.
Who play the cover? None other. Smother me like my mother.
Oh brother, (you can’t) high above me you hover.
Your embrace is like (whoo!) lover’s power like (bloww!).
Get white with my expressions, like, «Wow!»
Chorus
Verse 2 (Bone):
You see, pardon me yo.
Every minute and second I reminisce how your affection has affected me so
And protected me though,
I was wild and disconnected from your presence.
Body and soul, pardon me yo,
But my emotions spinnin’ out of control. ‘Cuz my physical knows
You’re the part of me that gives my heartbeat the rhythm.
Combinin’ with these natural flows, I could never let go.
Or accept no imititation. Determination got me patiently waitin’
For the day that I’m facin’ you. Eternally, embraced with you.
I can’t wait to take my place with you (yo).
Chorus X2
Girl speaking:
Like the earth, I belong to everyone.
There is not a single drop of hatred in my breast.
Open wide my hands, scatter grapes to the wind.
Pardon me, yo?
Fades:
Pardon me yo-o-o-o, pardon me yo, pardon me yo, pardon me yo-o-o-o, pardon me yo, pardon me yo.
Patiently wait for you, pardon me yo.
Hopelessly wait for you, pardon me yo.
Can’t get away from you, pardon me yo…
