Lyrics Grace Jones

Grace Jones

Williams' Blood

You can't save me, you can't save a wretch like me

When she was seventeen

She married a Preacher Man

And she settled down

In a little part of town

Followed him all around

Having little babies

Singing in a little Church

In a little ghost town

She's so happy

(I don't want to keep up I can't keep up)

She's so happy, keeping up

(I don't wanna keep up, keeping up with the Jones)

Finally she told me

Grandpa Dan travelled

Playing on the road

With Nat King Cole

And he womanized

Staying up all night

Cruisin'up around the town

From town to town to town

(Let me go - ahhh ah Hurricane)

(Just let me go - ahhh ah I'm going to care)

Why don't you be a Jones like your Sister and your brother Noel

when are you gonna be a Jones your just like your Dad

God bless his soul

I've got the Williams' blood in me

I've got the Williams' blood in me

I've got the Williams' blood in me

(I've got the Williams' blood)

I've got the Williams' blood in me

In me, in me, in me, running though my veins

Williams' blood in me

In a room full of doves

I'm waiting for the Angels

Spreading my wings

So I can fly

(Let me fly)

Hurricane

-You can't save a wretch like me-

(Let me fly ahhhh ahh - hurricane)

(Let me go - ahhh ah Hurricane)

Why don't you be a Jones like your Sister and your brother Noel

when are you gonna be a Jones your just like your Dad

God bless his soul

I've got the Williams' blood in me

I've got the Williams' blood in me

I've got the Williams' blood in me

I've got the Williams' blood in me

I've got the Williams' blood in me

(I don't wanna keep up, I can't keep up)

(I don't wanna keep up, I can't keep up)

(Keeping up with the Jones')

Amazing Grace

How sweet the sound

That saved a wretch like me
