Lyrics Wilson Pickett

Wilson Pickett

I've Come a Long Way

I've come a long long long long way, oh yes I did

Since I found a love, since I found a love

But wait a minute, there's one more thing

It was so hard hard, yeah, oh yeah

But I've come a long, such a long long way

Let me tell y'all by the stars above

Let me say that one more time, by the stars above

I used to look here and there...here, there, everywhere

One day that woman walked into my life, oh yeah

She said "Don't worry baby, I'll make everything all

right"

She went on and she smoothed out all the rough roads, uh

huh

With a-lots of lovin' and secure, oh yes she did

And she gave me somethin' to live for

I can tell the world, yeah yeah (by the stars above)

I've come a long (long) long way (long way)

Ah sometime I'm gonna cry tears of water

That came runnin' out, oh yeah
