Misty mornin dont see no sun;
I know youre out there somewhere having fun.
There is one mystery - yea-ea-eah - I just cant express:
To give your more to receive your less.
One of my good friend said in a reggae riddim
"Dont jump in the water if you cant swim."
The power of philosophy - yea-ea-eah - floats through my head
Light like a feather heavy as lead;
Light like a feather heavy as lead yeah.
See no sun! Oh.
Time has come I want you -
I want you to straighten out my tomorrow! Uh.
I want - I want - I want you - (tomorrow).
Oh wo-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah!
I want you to straighten out my (tomorrow)!
Misty (morning) mornin dont see no sun;
I know youre out there somewhere having fun.
Mysteries I just cant express:
How can you ever give your more to receive your less?
Like my good friend said in a reggae riddim:
"You cant jump - you cant jump in the water if you cant swim."
I want you (I want you) - I want you to straighten out my today -
My tomorrow - my-my-my - my - my
(I want you to straighten out my tomorrow).
On a misty morning uh! (I want you to straighten out my tomorrow).
Oh-oh oh-oh-oh-oh!
(I want you to straighten out my tomorrow)
Straighten out my tomorrow - my tomorrow! Need some straightenin out!
(I want you to straighten out my tomorrow)
Mist! Mm. (I want) Mist! (you to straighten out my tomorrow)
Misty! Oh! (I want you to straighten out my tomorrow) - [fadeout]
