Charles, Ray - Come With Me Lyrics
Come with me
Where the food is free
Where the landlord never comes near you
Be a guest in a house of rest
Where the best of fellows can cheer you.
So cool, not too much light
Where you're one man for whom
No wife waits up at night
When day ends
You have lots of friends
Who will guard you well while you slumber
Safe from battle and strife
Safe from the wind and gale
Come with me to jail
You'll never have to fetch the milk
There's no -"Get up- you're late for work!"
While you rest in the pearly dawn
You're never bored by politics
You're privileged to miss a row
Of tragedies by Sophocles
And diatribes by Cicero
Your brother's wife will never come
On Sunday noon to bring to you
Her little son who plays the lute,
Her little girl to sing to you
You can commit you little "sin"
And relatives won't yell "Fie!"
You needn't take the annual trip
To the oracle at Delphi
You snore and swear and stretch and yawn
In this, your strictly male house
The only way that sinners go to Heaven
Is in the jailhouse!

COME LIVE WITH ME LYRICS
Come live with me and won't you be my love?
Share my bread and wine
Be wife to me, be life to me, be mine
Oh, come live with me and be my love
Let our dreams combine
Be great to me, be fate to me, be mine
With these hands
I'll build a roof to shield your head
Yes, and with these hands
I'll carve the wood for our baby's bed
Oh, come live with me and be my love
So I can love you all the time
Be part of me, girl, be the heart of me, be mine
Why don't y'all help me now?
I'll try to do my best for you, I swear, I promise you
And girl, didn't I tell you, I'll cry for you, don't you know?
I will accompany you, I say my whole life through
Oh, come live with me and won't you be my love?
Hey, hey, share my bread and wine
Be part of me, oh, be the heart of me, baby, please be mine
i love you 💕 12-03-18

Be part of me,
Be the heart of me,
Be Mine
💘💘💘💘💘💘
Saw him perform this on Carson one night. The audience was completely silent for at least a couple of seconds after the last note faded, and then exploded in applause. Carson just shook his head.
3 bitter bitches were not invited to move in together...
I was wondering, "Who the hell gave this a thumbs down?" You may have put your finger on it.
блестящая музыка!!!!!
Fucking awesome!
oh my god this song.......my fav from Ray
Really true soul. It just doesn't get better than Ray Charles. Such true emotion and feeling. Cant get enough of Ray no matter what style he is doing. Don't overlook his piano and organ playing either. This is one of my favorites he is just making love to it.
A fantastic song for a wedding piece along with "There Is Love" and "You're All I Need To Get By."
fuck the thumbs up if u love this awesome song ..
Прекрасно!
haha, funny you say that, its going to be mine to!
This is one of my favorite songs that he sings. It is so romantic.
For someone without sight...He sure sees!
Fantastico!!!!!!......
