Gil Scott-Heron Lyrics

Give Her a Call on the Spirits album, 1994.

My life is one of movement

I been running as fast as I can

I've inherited trial and error directly from my old man

But I'm committed to the consequences

Whether I stand or fall

And when I get back to my life

I think I'm gonna give her a call

She's been waiting patiently

For me to get myself together

And it touches something deep inside

When she said she'd wait forever

Because forever's right up on me now

That is, if it ever comes at all

And when I'm back to my life

I think I'll give her a call.
