Norah Jones Album

Treat me like a fool
Treat me mean and cruel
But love me

Wring my faithful heart
Tear it all apart
But love me

If you ever go
Darling, I'll be oh so lonely
I'll be sad and blue
Crying over you, dear only

I would beg and steal
Just to feel your heart
Beatin' so close to mine

If you ever go
Darling, I'll be oh so lonely
I'll be sad and blue
Crying over you, dear only

I would beg and steal
Just to feel your heart
Beatin' so close to mine

If you ever go
Darling, I'll be oh so lonely
Beggin' on knees
All I ask is please, please love me
Oh yeah

Dearest constellation, heaven surrounding you
Stay there, soft and blue
Virginia Moon, I'll wait for you tonight

Sweetest invitation, breaking the day in two
Feeling like I do
Virginia Moon, I'll wait for you tonight

And now our shapes become shadows in your light
In the morning when we're through
And tomorrow rescues you
I will say goodnight

Secret fascination, whisper a quiet tune
Hear me calling you
Virginia Moon, I'll wait for you tonight

And now our shapes become shadows in your light
In the morning when we're through
And tomorrow rescues you
I will say goodnight

(guitar solo)

Virginia Moon, I'll wait for you tonight

And now our shapes become shadows in your light
In the morning when we're through
And tomorrow rescues you
I will say goodnight
I will say goodnight
I will say goodnight

(performed by Sean Bones feat. Norah Jones)

If your ship's coming my way, I'll turn around
If he's back, you tank your seaway, put your anchor down
And if anyone's been asking
I'm looking, I'm looking for traction on my own
I'll take all your belongings, I'll put it in the yard
Bury all your letters, rip up the postcards
I won't need them where I'm going
The distance keeps growing
Till I'm gone

You should be safe
It could be good for you
You better be careful now
Now that I'm gone
You should be safe
Just let it be good for you
You better be careful now
Now that I'm gone

I'm going home on the phone now
Oh it's been awhile
Well you got me up at night
With my hopes so high
I don't know what I'm after
It feels like such a disaster
I'm okay you know

You should be safe
Just let it be good for you
You better be careful now
Now that I'm gone
You should be safe
Just let it be good for you
You better be careful now
Now that I'm gone
Now that I'm gone

I really can't stay
Baby, it's cold outside
I've got to go away
But baby, it's cold outside

This evening has been
Been hoping that you'd drop in
So very nice
I'll hold your hands, they're just like ice

My mother will start to worry
Beautiful, what's your hurry?
My father will be pacing the floor
Listen to that fireplace roar

So really I'd better scurry
Beautiful, please don't hurry
Well, maybe just a half a drink more
Put some records on while I pour

Neighbors might think
Baby, it's bad out there
Say what's in this drink?
No cabs to be had out there

I wish I knew how
Your eyes are like starlight now
To break this spell
I'll take your hat, your hair looks swell

I ought to say no, no, no, sir
Mind if I move in closer
At least I'm gonna say that I tried
What's the sense in hurting my pride?

I really can't stay
Baby, don't hold out
Baby, it's cold outside

I simply must go
Baby, it's cold outside
Oh, the answer is no
Baby, it's cold outside

Your welcome has been
How lucky that you dropped in
So nice and warm
Look out the window at that storm

My sister will be suspicious
Gosh, your lips look delicious
My brother will be there at the door
Waves upon a tropical shore

My maiden aunt's mind is so vicious
Your lips are delicious
Well, maybe just a cigarette more
Never such a blizzard before

I've got to go home
Maybe you'll freeze out there
Say lend me a comb
It's up to your knees out there

You've really been grand
I thrill when you touch my hand
But don't you see?
How can you do this thing to me?

There's bound to be talk tomorrow
Think of my life long sorrow
At least there will be plenty implied
If you caught pneumonia and died

I really can't stay
Get over that old doubt
Baby, it's cold outside

(feat. Sasha Dobson)

Well first you gotta wanna get off bad enough to wanna get on him in the first place
And you better trust in your lady luck
Pray to God that she don't give up on you right now

Live fast die young bull rider

One hand hold is all you got it's you and the bull against the clock and a cross crowd
And once upon a spinnin' ton nothin' else you've ever done can pull this way

You're just outside the buckin' shoot
Lose a spur you lose your seat and you lose yourself
By now he's buckin' mean and dirty
Slingin' mud and cowboy boots and kickin' clowns

No fools no fun bull rider

You gotta feel the way he's movin' you gotta watch his head
And brace yourself for anything that a friend of you might dead

You know the art of hangin' loose hangin' just as tight
Well there's something like a hurricane who's dancin' with the kite

Live fast die young bull rider

Well the rodeo is more than rough
It's a fact of life it's tough to cut his fever ass

It's drinkin' beer and pullin' trailers
Tighten may on barreled razors and horse's buck

No fools no fun bull rider
Live fast die young bull rider

Ruler of my heart
Robber of my soul
Where can you be?
I wait patiently

My heart cries out
Pain inside
Where can you be?
I wait patiently

When you're alone
Going gets rough
Come back, come back, come back baby
I've had enough

Make me a queen
Happy again
Hear my cry
And ease my pain

--- instrumental break ---

When you're alone
Going gets rough
Come back, come back, come back baby
I've had enough

Make me a queen
Happy again
Hear me cry
And ease my pain

--- Humming to the end ---

(performed by El Madmo feat. Norah Jones)

I see the moon in the sky
I taste the soft in your eyes
I'll ignore all your lies
I'll chain as I go swing
Breaking off and away
In the scold of the cave
Don't forget me

I'll lay precious and mine
Love is reality line
Time always puts up a fight
Don't forget me

Lay your hand on my heart
Like it was at the start
That always was the best part
That was the best part

Hey yaaa ... Ba-doo-baaaa-ba-doo-baaaaa
Hey yaaa ... Ba-doo-baaaa-ba-doo-baaaaa

[Norah Jones]
Baby, take off your cool
I wanna see you, I wanna see you
Baby, don't be so cool
I wanna see you, I wanna see you

[Andre 3000]
Baby, take off your cool
I want to get to know you
(Take off your cool)

[Norah Jones]
Life's filled with graaaay....
But now, it comes clean..
Leaves fall, awaaaaaay...
Hip-hop is playing again
And it's bangin, toooo....
Know it's bangin, for you...
Don't stop this feeling I feel...
I just wanna lay around all day
and feel the breeze upon my knees
I'm so INTO your rich history..
Tell me a story to taaaake me away..
Come and take meeeeee, ooooooh...
Come and take meeeeee with yooooou..

[Chorus 4X: Norah Jones]
Life is, better
Now that, now that I found you
Life is, better
Now that, now that I found you

[Chorus repeat 'til fade as Q-Tip sings his own version of the chorus]
Life is bet-teeeer, since I found you

[Verse 1]
Here we go like
Yes yes yawl
To the beat yawl
Ain't no sleep yawl
To the break of dawn
5 o'clock in the morning
We keep rockin on
The workin people runnin like the stop clock is on
We got it poppin in the meat market
Chicks take a seat, park it
By the bar so they can meet the Vick with deep pockets
And them dudes
Buy them cars that turn 'em in to sweet objects
of desire
Big rims and them tires
We finna drop it like it's heavy as hell
The clan of the cavebear
Used to use the club to hit and drag her by the hair
Still use the club to get her a martini or a beer
Try to get her home and put the smell of sex in the air
Come through like the cable guy
Get 'er done
That 'ole hit 'n run
Turn into bitter ones
Tonight is catch me if you can
You can taste the ginger bread
Ain't nothing like wakin' up with a stranger in yur bed
Nope!

[Chorus]
[Norah Jones]
Soon the new day, breaks the dawn
[Talib Kweli]
Tomorrow I'll be like
Were am I?
Whets your name?
Gotta go, I'm glad you came
[Norah Jones]
But tonight you, will be so fun
[Talib Kweli]
Maybe you're the one!
[Norah Jones]
Soon the new day, breaks the dawn

[Verse 2]
Puttin on some Airs
King For a Day
Hard to face your fears we wear the mask like Cory McKay
You have a ball today
It's all a masquerade
Shorty paint her face like a clown but can't take away the frown
Found under the make up
I asked her "What's your passion?" answered "What's the paper" she sleep
and they don't want her to wake up
Maybe they should realize their own beauty
Baby you a star and not just a star on some dudes home movies

[Chorus]
[Norah Jones]
Soon the new day, breaks the dawn
[Talib Kweli]
Tomorrow I'll be like
Were am I?
What's your name?
Gotta go, I'm glad you came
[Norah Jones]
But tonight you, will be so fun
[Talib Kweli]
Maybe you're the one!
[Norah Jones]
Soon the new day, breaks the dawn

[Verse 3]
Steppin out, I got my best outfit on
Gotta get it in. I'm slippin in the darkness like most of the day is gone
We up all night I wonder if can hang
We used to hang from a tree
Now we hangin behind the rope we V.I.P.
We do it
B.I.G.
Ain't no need to See I.D.
Thee entire scenery
Shrouded in mystery
Clouded with greenery
Six girls to every three dudes
So you have half a chance
If you ask to have a dance
The ones ready to freak off don't need no romance
They belong to the sisterhood of the traveling pants
They got them
Hungry eyes you know sensual trance
At a glance
The alcohol got you sexually advanced
The truth is so boring you gotta pretend a little; the antidote is more
colorful the rainbow and the Skittles
And the quest to trap the cat
The game is the Tinder Fiddles to get the bruce to say the sky's fallin
like your Chicken Little.
Come on!

[Chorus]
[Norah Jones]
Soon the new day, breaks the dawn
[Talib Kweli]
Tomorrow I'll be like
Were am I?
Whats your name?
Gotta go, I'm glad you came
[Norah Jones]
But tonight you, will be so fun
[Talib Kweli]
Maybe you're the one!
[Norah Jones]
Soon the new day, breaks the dawn
But tonight you, will be so fun
Soon the new day, breaks the dawn
But tonight you, will be so fun
Soon the new day, breaks the dawn [4X]

What a waste, I could've been your lover
What a waste, I could've been your friend
Perfect love is like a blossom that fades so quick
When it's blowing up a storm in May

Travel south until your skin turns, woman
Travel south until your skin turns brown
Put a language in your head and get on a train
And then come back to the one you love

(Norah)
Yeah you're great, you're just part, of this lifetime of dreaming
That extends to the heart of this long summer feeling
Cry at night, you see the TVs glowing
Cry at night, you hear the walls are awake

Being you, I'm getting out of a party crowd
Can I see what's underneath your bed?
Can I stay until the milkman's working?
Can I stay until the café's awake?

(Together)
Do you hate me in the light?
Did you get a fright?
When you looked across from where you lay

Yeah you're great, you're just part, of this lifetime of dreaming
That extends to the heart of this long summer feeling
All the history of wars I invent in my head
Little Lou, Ugly Jack, Prophet John

All the history of wars I invent in my head
Little Lou, Ugly Jack, Prophet John

(Stuart)
What a waste, I could've been your lover

(Norah)
What a waste, I could've been your friend

[Norah Jones]
Here we go again
He's back in town again
I'll take him back again
One more time

[Ray Charles]
Here we go again
The phone will ring again
I'll be her fool again, I will
One more time

[Norah Jones]
I've been there before
And I will try it again
Any fool, any fool knows
That there's no, no way to win

[Ray Charles]
Here we go again
She'll break my heart again, yeah
I'll play the part again

One more time
(Alright, Mr. Preston)
I've been there before, you know what?
I'll try it again

[Norah Jones]
But any fool, any fool knows
That there's no, no way to win

[Together]
Here we go again
She'll break my heart again
I'll play the part again
One more time
I'll take her back again
One more time

[Ray Charles]
I will

Oh Loretta she's a barroom girl
wears them sevens on her sleeve
Dances like a diamond shines
Tell me lies I love to believe
Her age is always 22
Her laughing eyes a hazel hue
Spends my money like water falls
Loves me like I want her to

Oh, Loretta, won't you say to me
Darling, put your guitar on
have a little shot of booze
play a blue a and wailing song
My guitar rings a melody
My guitar sings, Loretta's fine
Long and lazy, blonde and free
and I can have her any time

Sweetest at the break of day
preattiest in the setting sun
she don't cry when I can't stay
'least not till she's all alone
Loretta, I won't be gone long
keep your dancing slippers on
keep me on your mind a while
I'll be back, babe, to make you smile

I got a house full of walls
and utility bills
and every Monday the company calls
I got a nice bed to sleep on
and a chest of drawers where I keep those
jewels of yours
'Cause you are always mine to keep
when you're gone
Two silvers rings
one's on my finger, and the other one's gone
It went underground with you
Oh, John
Ten years passed
and I ended up with a house full of cats
Most of them went missing
from the window you never
fixed and the door you never latched
when you were on your way out like last time
'Cause you are always mine to keep
when you're gone
Two silvers rings
one's on my finger, but the other one's gone
It went underground with you
Oh, John
I knew what you were doing that summer
when Candy came around
But I had too much hurt to bother you
when we lost our first child
And a little payment was overdue
And I want you so bad
'Cause you are always mine to keep
when you're gone
Two silvers rings
one's on my finger, and the other one's gone
It went underground with you
Oh John
I miss you
I miss you
Oh John

There's a big old hole
Goes right through the sole
Of this old shoe

And the water on the ground ain't got no places it's fine
So its only got one thing left to do
Just creep on in
Creep on in
Creep on in

And once it has begun it won't stop until it's done
Sneakin' in

There's a silver moon
Came a little too soon
Oh for me to bear
It shines brightly on my bed and the shadow's over head
Won't let me sleep as long as it's there

Just creep on in
Creep on in
Creep on in

And once it has begun won't stop until it's done
Sneakin' in

Creep on in
Creep on in

And once it has begun won't stop until it's done
Sneakin' in

There's a big old hole
Goes right through my soul
Oh that ain't nothin' new

So as long as you're around
I got no place else you've found
There's only one thing left for you to do

I just creep on in
Creep on in
Creep on in

And once you have begun don't stop until you're done
Sneakin' in

And once it has begun it won't stop until it's done
Sneakin' in

And once it has begun it won't stop until it's done
Sneakin' in
Sneakin' in
Sneakin' in
Sneakin' in
Creepin' in
Sneakin' in
Sneakin' in
Sneakin' in
Sneakin' in
Sneakin' in
Creepin' in
You want to keep creepin' on in
Creep
Creepin' in

Love came to my door
With a sleeping roll and a madman's soul
He thought for sure I'd seen him
Dancing up a river in the dark
Looking for a woman to court and spark

He was playing on the sidewalk for passing change
When something strange happened
Glory train passed through him
So he buried the coins he made in People's Park
And went looking for a woman to court and spark

It seemed like he read my mind
He saw me mistrusting him and still acting kind
He saw how I worried sometimes
How I worried sometimes

All the guilty people, he said
They've all seen the stain
On their daily bread, on their Christian names
Oh, I cleared myself, I sacrificed my blues
You could complete me, I'd complete you

His eyes were the color of the sand and the sea
The more he talked to me
Oh, the more he reached me
Oh, but I couldn't let go of L.A.
City of the fallen angels

I could feel at the time there was no way of knowing
Fallen leaves in the night who can say where they're blowing
As free as the wind and hopefully learning
Why the sea on the tide has no way of turning

More than this there is nothing
Oh, more than this you tell me one thing
More than this you know there's nothing

It was fun for a while there was no way of knowing
Like a dream in the night who can say where we're going
No cares in the world and maybe I'm learning
Why the sea on the tide it has no way of turning

More than this you know there is nothing
Oh, more than this you tell me one thing
More than this there is nothing, not a thing

More than this you know there is nothing
Much more than this you tell me one thing
More than this there is nothing

More than

I feel so bad Ive got a worried mind
Im so lonesome all the time
Since I left my baby behind on blue bayou

Saving nickels, saving dimes, working till the sun don't shine
Looking forward to happier times on blue bayou
Im going back some day come what may to blue bayou
Where you sleep all day and the catfish play on blue bayou

All those fishing boats with their sails afloat if I could only see
That familiar sunrise through sleepy eyes, how happy I'd be

Go to see my baby again
And to be with some of my friends
Maybe I'd be happy then on blue bayou

Im going back some day, gonna stay on blue bayou
Where the folks are fine and the world is mine on blue bayou
Oh, that girl of mine by my side the silver moon and the evening tide
Oh, some sweet day gonna take away this hurtin inside
Ill never be blue, my dreams come true on blue bayou
