We're Tight by Carla Thomas & Rufus Thomas
Performed by
Carla Thomas & Rufus ThomasWe’re Tight Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Closer than a bird to a feather
Closer than the seasons to the weather
We're just in our own little world
Darling, I'm your man
And I'm your dedicated girl
[Chorus]
We're tight, oh, yeah (We're tight, oh, yeah)
We're tight, oh, yeah (We're tight, oh, yeah)
[Verse 2]
You're like a picture of a Mona Lisa
I do everything I can to try and please ya
I got no reason to shop around
'Cause you're the man I love and I never put you down
[Chorus]
We're tight, oh, yeah (We're tight, oh, yeah)
We're tight, oh, yeah (We're tight, oh, yeah)
[Verse 3]
If I ask you just how you feel
You get right to the point
Our love is real
So real (So real)
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 4]
Closer than a bird to a feather
Closer than the seasons to the weather
We're just in our own little world
Darlin', I'm your man
And I'm your dedicated girl
[Chorus]
We're tight, oh, yeah (We're tight, oh, yeah)
We're tight, oh, yeah (We're tight, oh, yeah)
[Verse 5]
If I ask you just how you feel
You get right to the point
Our love is real
So real (So real)
[Outro]
We're tight, oh, yeah (We're tight, oh, yeah)
We're tight, oh, yeah (We're tight, tight, oh, yeah)
Yeah, yeah, yeah
We're tight (We're tight)
Yeah, yeah, yeah
