3/4 TIME
Ray Charles
I like enchilados and old El Dorados that shine
And old friend the guitar and songs and women and wine
They say that I'm livin to fast but I'm feelin fine (yeah)
And I just keep easin along in 3/4 time
Sometimes I get sideways and stay up all night writin songs
They say it ain't healthy but somehow I keep goin on (I do)
I write what I feel and don't care if the damn thing don't rhyme (no)
Just gimme a C chord and play it in 3/4 time (got it)
Chorus:
It's a big old world and we all have to live out our lives
And one thing's for sure ain't none of gonna get out alive(uhuh,sorry)
So while I'm still kickin I'm gonna keep pickin my tunes
I like what I'm doin and I hope it don't end too soon
Cause all a my life there's one thing I keep hopin to find (yes)
A woman who likes to make love in 3/4 time (be nice ya know)
Chorus:
It's a big old world and we all have to live out our lives
And one thing's for sure ain't none of gonna get out alive(uhuh,sorry)
