Williams Blood

You can't save me

You can't save a wretch like me

When she was seventeen

She married a preacher man

And she settled down

In a little part of town

Followed him all around

Having little babies

Singing in a little church

In a little ghost town

She's so happy

(I don't want to keep up, I can't keep up)

She's so happy, keepin' up

(I don't wanna keep up, keepin' up with the Joneses)

Finally, she told me

Grandpa Dan traveled

Playing on the road

With Nat King Cole

And he womanized

Staying up all night

Cruisin' up around the town

From town to town to town[Refrain]

Let me go (Ah, ah), I'm wicked (Ooh)

Just let me go (Ah, ah), I'm going to care (Ooh)

Why don't you be a Jones?

Like your sister and your brother Noel

When are you gonna be a Jones?

You're just like your dad

And Dan, God bless his soul, oh

I've got the Williams' blood in me

I've got the Williams' blood in me

I've got the Williams' blood in me

(Got the Williams' blood)

I've got the Williams' blood in me

In me, in me, in me, I feel it running through my veins

My blood, the Williams' blood in me

In a room full of doves

I'm waiting for the angels

Spreading my wings

So I can fly[Refrain]

Let me fly, I'm wicked (You can't save a wretch like me)

Let me fly (Ah, ah), I'm wicked (Ooh)

Just let me go (Ah, ah), I'm going to care

Williams' prepared (Ooh)

Why don't you be a Jones?

Like your sister and your brother Noel

They said, "When are you gonna be a Jones?

You're just like your dad"

And Dan, God bless his soul, oh

I've got the Williams' blood in me

(Got the Williams' blood)

I've got the Williams' blood in me (Ooh, ooh)

I've got the Williams' blood in me (Uh, never change, uh)

I've got the Williams' blood in me (Ooh, ooh, ooh)

Let me go (Oh)

I've got the Williams' blood in me

I'll never change, let me go (Let me go, ooh)

Goin' to change (Let me go, ah, ah)

Of the change, of the change (Let me go, ooh)

Oh, oh, oh so ready, change (Let me go)

For more people, let me go (Ooh, Williams' sweet, yeah)

I don't wanna keep up, I can't keep up (Let me go, ah, ah)

I don't wanna keep up, I can't keep up (Let me go, ooh)

Got the Williams' blood in me (Let me go, ah, ah)

I don't wanna keep up, I can't keep up (Let me go)

I don't wanna keep up, I can't keep up (Let me go, ooh)

I've got the Williams' blood in me[Outro]

Amazing grace

How sweet the sound

That saved a wretch like me
