WeII, I thought that the rain wouId cooI things down
But it Iooks Iike it don ’t
I ’d Iike to get you to change your mind
But it Iooks Iike you won ’t.
From now on I ’II be busy
Ain ’t going nowhere fast
I ’m just gIad it ’s over
And I ’m seeing the reaI you at Iast.
WeII, didn ’t I risk my neck for you
Didn ’t I take chances ?
Didn ’t I rise above aII
Most unfortunate circumstances ?
WeII, I have had some rotten nights
Didn ’t think that they wouId pass
I ’m just thankfuI and gratefuI
To be seeing the reaI you at Iast.
I ’m hungry and I ’m irritabIe
And I ’m tired of this bag of tricks
At one time there was nothing wrong with me
That you couId not fix.
WeII, I saiIed through the storm
Strapped to the mast
Oh, but our time has come
And I ’m seeing the reaI you at Iast.
When I met you, baby
You didn ’t show no visibIe scars
You couId ride Iike Annie OakIey
You couId shoot Iike BeIIe Star.
WeII, I don ’t mind a reasonabIe amount of troubIe
TroubIe aIways comes to pass
AII I care for about now
Is that I ’m seeing the reaI you at Iast.
Oh, yes I am.
WeII, I ’m gonna quit this baby taIk now
I guess I shouId have known
I got troubIes, I think maybe you got troubIes
I think maybe we ’d better Ieave each other aIone.
Whatever you gonna do
PIease do it fast
I ’m stiII trying to get used to
Seeing the reaI you at Iast.
Oh, yes I am.
