Tupelo Honey / Why Must I Explain (Live at Montreux)

You can take all the tea in China

Put it in a big brown bag for me

Sail right around all the seven oceans

Drop it straight into the deep blue sea

Because she's as sweet as Tupelo honey

She's an angel of the first degree (She's an angel)

She's as sweet as Tupelo honey

Just like honey, baby, from the bee

They can't stop us on the road to freedom

They can't keep us 'cause their eyes can't see

We've got men with insight, we've got men in granite

Hеre are knights in armor bent on chivalry

Shе's as sweet as Tupelo honey

She's an angel of the first degree (She's an angel)

She's as sweet as Tupelo honey

Just like honey, baby, from the bee[Organ Solo]

Have to toe the line, I've got to make the most

Spent all my life going from pillar to post

Standing on the outside and I'm waitin' in the rain

Tell me why must I always explain

Bared my soul to the crowd, but oh what the cost

Most of them laughed out loud like nothing's been lost

Hypocrites and parasites and people that just drain

Tell me why must I always explain

Why, why, why, why must I always explain

Over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over again?

It's just my job you know, it's not meant to be sweet Lorraine

Tell me why must I always explain[Verse 4]

Da da da da da da, da da da da da da da

Da da da da da da, da da da da da da da

Da da da da da da, da da da da da da da

Da da da da da da, always explain

Can't be everywhere at once, there's always somebody to see

Never turned out to be who they wanted me to be

But I have to pay the piper time and time and time again

Telling me why must I always explain

Well it's out on the highway and it's on with the show

Telling people things they don't really even want to know

(Don't want to know)

Make you crazy, drive you insane

Telling me why must I always explain

Why, why, why, why, why, why, why must I always explain

Over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over again?

It's just my job you know, it's not meant to be sweet Lorraine

Telling me why must I always explain

Whoa, why, why, why must I always explain

Over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over again?

It's just my job you know, it's not meant to be sweet Lorraine

Tell me why must I always explain[Verse 4]

Da da da da da da, da da da da da da da

Da da da da da da, da da da da da da da

Da da da da da da, da da da da da da da

Tell me why must I always explain

It was like this

Well, it was like this (It was like this)

It was like this (It was like this)

It was like, it was like this
