There You Are
Shucks, I thought this party was gonna be really hitting on something.
Ain't nothing around here but a bunch of women, nobody to dance with.
Every man that looks like him already been taken.
Sho' can't trust nobody to tell you where to go these days. Uh-oh.
Mmmmmm. Lord, have mercy.
There you are looking like a king, but everything.
There you are.
If I spoke to you, would you smile and say hello
Or would you formally announce that you had somewhere else to go.
Oh, oh, oh, but there you are holding all my desires.
I'm getting butterflies, 'cause there you are. Yeah.
Don't move. Come here, anybody.
I must beduced.
If I did it myself, the man just might think that I'm forward and loose.
Oh, oh, oh, but there you are.
There you are, baby. I'm looking at you.
Hey, whoo! Good god almighty, baby.
Uh, huh. Sho'nuff.
Hey, Helen, the fella standing over there on the corner,
Do you know his name? Oh, you do, Jimmy?
Would youduce me to him?
See, that's why I don't like to go nowhere with you.
What kind of friend are you?
That's alright. Wait 'til the next time you want somebody to hang out with you.
You're gonna hang out by yourself, 'cause I'm gonna be with Jimmy.
Ah, I'll do it myself, nevermind. Thank you.
Ah, Jimmy, my name is Millie.
I saw you standing over here like this.
I thought if I could come over and have a few words with you. Yeah, Millie.
And here we are, you standing here next to me.
Tell me now, my sweet Jimmy,
Could it be, could it be that you are my destiny.
Ohhhh! Aw, aw.
Jimmy, we oughta get together.
Let's get out here on the floor and talk about it a little bit.
I know it's gonna be alright, you and me, baby. Lawd.
