Sit Right Down
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I never get together, get together, get together when I want
I never get together, get to, get together when I want
I will never get no way, no way, no way
Let me tell you
I say something you passed up baby
Say I will never get no way
I never get together, get together, get together when I want
I never get together, get to, get together when I want
One more time
Let me tell you
Grandfather say something is over there for me
Grandmother say let me tell you what to do now
My father say son let me share it up for you
My mama say let me tell you what to do
I'm gonna sit right down and wait, wait a little while
I'm gonna sit right down and wait, wait a little while
I never get no way, no way, no way, no way
And I start to pass that way, they say I will never get no way
My father say something is over there for me now
And I tell him dad now, daddy I don't want to be that way now
My grandmother say son, let me tell you just what to do now
I told me that there is something good to stay for
I'm going to sit right down and wait, wait a little while
I'm going to sit right down and wait, wait a little while
