She Said

So I’m thinking ‘bout Amari now

And I know she’s on the other line

Try to make it positive I keep on drinking on

And wake the town I hear mister don’t you be like

I said you don’t understand how I went to school now my granny’s on the other line

Although she better up there now

I know she’s better up there now

She said

There’s only high up above and ahead

Remember what she said

Boy you better only do good

Remember what grandma said

Only high up above and ahead

Amari I, I’m only thinking about you

I left my school cause grandma died today

And momma phoned to skip my lessons

I couldn’t hide the pain and stayed in bed

Cried so much turned my face red

I couldn’t live here on without you

Tried to understand it what could I do

Now I only wanna get numb

While everybody else seems to move on

She said

There’s only high up above and ahead

Remember what she said

Boy you only better do good

Remember what grandma said

Only high up above and ahead

Amari I, I’m only thinking about you

So I think about Amari now

And I know she on the other line

Try to make it positive I keep on drinking on

I wake the town and hear mister don’t you be like

Don’t leave me in the rain now

I don’t understand what you say now

While you’re up and there now

I hope it’s better up there now

She said

There’s only high up above and ahead

Remember what she said

Boy you only better do good

Remember what grandma said

Only high up above and ahead

Amari I, I’m only thinking about you
