My Corrina, she's got it badly she is so crazy about her love she lets me kiss her, under her jaw bone she's got no problem about her love It's just a calling, I feel her falling for me what are we gonna do? my Corrina, she's got it badly she is so crazy about her love she thinks she's subtle, she say's who's that girl? I try to console her, "Corrina, you are my love." it's just a calling, I feel her falling for me And in the morning, she says, "it's morning, darling... What are we gonna do?" Corrina! She laughs, she laughs. She talks between her teeth. She clings to my shirt. She knows what she needs Bella Corrina! Bella Corinna! Bella Corrina! Bella Corrina! Bella Corrina! Bella Corrina! Smile at me love! Smile at me love! Bella Corrina! Bella Corinna! Bella Corrina! Bella Corrina! Bella Corrina! Bella Corrina! Smile at me love! Smile at me love! My Corrina, she's got it badly she is so crazy about her love she lets me kiss her, under her jaw bone she's got no problem about her love It's just a calling, I feel her falling for me what are we gonna do?

Forgiveness 03:03
I asked her kindly, will you forgive me? I asked her kindly. Pastor please, will you do me a little favor I'm such a fool. I didn't know I could be so cruel So will you tell her for me, tell her for me? I am a brute, I'm uncouth, I'm a ruffian I'll end up a skeleton if I don't change my ways. I asked her kindly, will you forgive me? I asked her kindly. You used to have eyes for me now you have only dirty stares for me but is it a dichotomy: good, bad, am I only one? at two in the morning, you used to grab my arm say, "what are you doing?" keep me up I'm weary all day long.

I was your man. You were my girl. We shared a love, all of our own We had many days, very light. When I was your man. Now you're gone. My darling, I hate that I saw you cry You run away without saying goodbye Now I walk the streets all very alone when I was your man, now you're gone. I was your man. You were my girl. We shared a love, all of our own We had many days, very light. When I was your man. Now you're gone. My sugar, I hate that I made you yell You stomp your feet, it shakes the ground and I'm a jaded soul, barreling around. I was your man, now you're gone.

What are words, what are words? I hear the pitter-patter of the rain I'm dousing myself in the sound Such a mood, such a mood that words can bring I hear the wind hustling by and in the most rosy light you saw me for the first time you were so slight, you were so slight your words were only kind what are words, they are just air like the wind is just air so are words, though it's hard to believe when they sting, when they slice like the breaking of a vase words they seem more than just air when the most rosy light turned off your words were not as soft how can puffs of air from your mouth make me feel so without? I sit at the window's edge listening to the pitter-patter of the rain... (improvised lyrics)
