It's Too Late

歌詞

It's too late (too late, too late) Said it's too late, yes it is (too late) My love is gone away to stay (too late) Don't you know it's too late now Listen, children, I wanna tell you this It's too late to cry (too late to cry) It's too late to cry now (too late to cry) My love is gone away, yes she has (too late) Wo wo (too late) she has (too late) (spoken:) I just guess that you're wonderin' why I always sing a sad song But you see, I had a woman who was very good to me And I can remember the times she used to sit down and tell me these words: Said, 'Pickett, I want you to know I love you from the bottom of my heart And whatever you need, I don't want you to go to your mother, your father, your sister or your brother I'll be a leadin' pull when you're fallin' down When all your money's gone, I want you to know you can count on me' But I didn't appreciate that woman then You know what? I had to run and chase after every little girl around town So finally one day I got home and I found my little girl gone And people, you know it hurt me so bad (ha ha) I had to hang my little head And cry Then I began to read the letter she left for me layin' there; it read like this, children It's too late, she's gone, oh (she's gone) 'It's too late I'm gone away' (she's gone) Ah yeah (too late) don't you know it, children (too late) Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah Say it one more time (too late) listen (too late) I wanna hear you understand what I'm talkin' about (too late) It's too late, she's gone, oh (she's gone) 'It's too late I'm gone away' (she's gone) Ah yeah (too late) don't you know it, children (too late) Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah Say it one more time (too late) listen (too late) I wanna hear you understand what I'm talkin' about (too late)
