MARLON JACKSON lyrics - Something Coming Down

(Marlon Jackson/Fred Maher)



Let me tell you something girl

Have you already heard

About the things people are talking - they say

That you know about deals and where it's

Coming in

Do you want to live that way

Is there truth what they say

And they're talking about

The things you did

When you walked away with someonebody

Else's money in hand

And they know about the drugs

Everybody did

I begged you no to live this way

I'm telling you



Don't mess around with me

Don't mess with me baby

Don't mess around with me

Don't mess with me



Don't you know that the things you are

Doing are wrong

And I know you will get caught in time

But you feel it in your heart

You feel it in your bones baby

And you just can't leave it alone

And you know about Billy

The kid next door

He never thought he would die that way

But you got this feeling in your bones

I beg you to leave it alone

You tell me you will someday



She knew she was wrong



Don't mess around with me

Don't mess with me baby

Don't mess around with me

Don't mess with me



There must be something

Going around

Got to be something

Coming down



She never believed a word I said

And she always did the things that made her happy

And I should have known becasue she did this

Once before

Girl it's going to kill you someday

She said she had everything under control

That she hadn't lost her mind

She said you belong to me

I belong to you

Don't tell me what to do

Everynight and day



The girl won't leave me alone

She knew she was wrong



Don't mess around with me

Don't mess with me baby

Don't mess around with me

Don't mess with me



There must be something

Going around

Got to be something

Coming down
