I’m Gettin’ Long Alright Lyrics

[Intro: Ray Charles]
Hey, girl
What's the matter with you?

[Chorus 1]
Whoa, I cried like a baby
When you left me last Friday night, yes I did
You know I cried like a baby
When you left me last Friday night, mm-hmm
But now I finally made me some connections
And I want you to know I’m gettin' long alright

[Interlude]
Well, what happened?
Oh, yeah?
Tell us about it, Mary

[Verse]
Listen, you know my ice man is a nice man (whoa-hoo)
Just as nice as he can be (whoa-hoo)
When he goes and collects his money (whoa-hoo)
He brings it all home to me (whoa-hoo)
Now my meat is a sweet man (whoa-hoo)
Bring me chicken evеry day (whoa-hoo)
And he tells me, "Prеtty baby" (whoa-hoo)
"You don't never have to pay" (whoa-hoo)
Now my wood is a good man (whoa-hoo)
’Cause he likes to keep me warm (whoa-hoo)
And his wood don't burn to suit me (whoa-hoo)
Then me takes me in his arms (whoa-hoo)
Now my rent me, he done tell me (whoa-hoo)
"You don't have to worry 'bout the rent, no, no" (whoa-hoo)
"Because all I wanna do is hold you, baby" (whoa-hoo)
"And yo' rent won't cost a cent" (whoa-hoo)
Now my coal man is a old man (whoa-hoo)
You know he's almost 82 (whoa-hoo)
But God, believe me when I tell you (whoa-hoo)
That old man sure knows what to do

[Chorus 2]
You know I cried like a baby
When you left me last Friday night, sho'nuff I did
But now I finally made me some connections
And I want you to know that I’m gettin’ long alright, oh yes I am

[Outro]
Doo-doo-eee
