Apartment 21 Lyrics by Bobbie Gentry

The Girl From Chickasaw County - The Complete Capitol Masters

0

[Verse 1]
Rain on my Sunday shoes
Pick up the daily news
Looks like tomorrow's blues, but it's better than none
And call on the telephone
Knowin' that he's not home
I'll put on the Rolling Stones and I can have me some fun
[Verse 2]
Start up a flight of stairs
Stand up and comb your hair
Try not to change things more than you can withstand
Get into something new
That's made for a year or two
Pick up the pieces where you think they might land
[Bridge]
Every day goes, another day's gone
Hate to say so, but I'm getting older
Day by day
[Verse 3]
Take off all your clothes
Stand up and wipe your nose
Cry for your daddy you lost so long ago
Jump on another plane
Today, it's all the same
You can catch me in Boston 'cause that's how it goes
[Verse 4]
I'm in Apartment 21
Stop by, have some fun
Say, "How you doin', you old son of a gun?"
Look at a photograph
Lord, don't it make you laugh?
All those changes, what have we done? And I say
[Chorus]
(La) La-la-la, (La) la-la-la, (La) la-la-la-la (La)
La-la-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la-la
(La) La-la-la, (La) la-la-la, (La) la-la-la-la (La)
La-la-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la-la
[Verse 5]
Sit down and write a song
Wait 'til the days grow long
And wait for the autumn wind to blow me away
[Chorus]
La-la-la, (La) la-la-la, (La) la-la-la-la (La)
La-la-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la-la
(La) La-la-la, (La) la-la-la, (La) la-la-la-la (La)
La-la-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la-la
(La) La-la-la, (La) la-la-la, (La) la-la-la-la (La)
La-la-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la-la
(La) La-la-la, (La) la-la-la, (La) la-la-la-la (La)
La-la-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la-la
