Loading...

[verse 1]
real, real gone
i got hit by a bow and arrow
got me all the way down to the marrow
and i’m real, real gone

[verse 2]
real, real gone
honey, i can’t stand up by myself
baby, you know i need your help
oh lord, i’m real, real gone

[bridge]
some people say you can make it on your own
oh, you can make it if you, you try
i know better now, you can’t stand up all alone
oh and darling, that’s the reason why

[verse 3]
i’m real, real gone
said i might as well stand on up here and face it
honey, baby, you’re love’s so good i can taste it
that’s why i’m so gone, gone, gone

[verse 2]
real, real, real, real, real gone
i can’t stand up by myself
baby, you know i need your help
yeah, ’cause i’m real, real gone
[verse 4]
sam cooke singing on the radio
and the night is all filled with sp+ce
i can feel, i can feel your fingertips on my face
you’re a friend of mine and i’m real, real gone

[verse 5]
wilson pickett used to say, “in the midnight hour
baby, that’s when my love comes tumbling down”
my friend solomon burke used to say
“if you need me, why won’t you call me?”
james brown said, “try me, try, try me”

[verse 6]
gene chandler used to say, “there’s a rainbow in my soul”
oh baby, baby, don’t you know?
john coltrane used to say “have mercy, mercy baby
have mercy, mercy baby, ’cause i’m real, real gone”
