But That's All Right
Jim Ed Brown and the Browns · Bottle, Bottle [RCA Victor] [1968]
Black satin slippers
And the long flowing gown
Walking on the clouds
Never looking down.
Baby, that's you
Baby, that's the way
I look at you.
But that's all right
Yeah, that's all right
Lovin' you may be wrong
But that's all right.
--- Instrumental ---
That funny looking thing
That little grain of sand
Laying on the ground
Shakes just like a man.
Baby, that's me
Or maybe that's the way
I look to you,
But that's all right
Yeah, that's all right
Lovin' you may be wrong
But that's all right.
Everybody's gotta be different
No one is the same
If everyone love the life
Who could win the game?
But that's all right
Yeah, that's all right
Lovin' you may be wrong
But that's all right.
Lovin' you may be wrong
But that's all right.
Lovin' you may be wrong
But that's all right...
