Marlon Jackson - Something Coming Down Lyrics

(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
