Lyrics

Tighter We ? Mark Skinner
Copyright 2003 - Written 1972 in Elgin, Illinois
Recorded on tape early 70?s ? Digitized w Audition Oct .2003

Come Swing my sweet leg, mama shake it for me
Night Times Comin, all awareness soon will flee
So won?t you come cozy down by me
I?ll listen to your sophistry
Won?t you come lay down with me,
Can?t be much tighter we.

We?ll if You wake up in the morning
and Find me Gone,
Don?t worry bout what you see,
I?ll come again for thee.


Seven years and nineteen days,
Cell walls they held me in
I?m getting back on a dusty bus,
Your where I shall begin
To work a load out for every night
That I could not stay with You
Come You bed down with me
Can?t be much tighter we.

Rub Raw Hands shadowed on the wall
Nothing to do but live memories
I?ll get back if I have to crawl
When I do there can?t be no tease
We?ll won?t you come bed down with me,
Can?t be much tighter we
Said won?t you come bed down with me,
Can?t be much tighter we.

If you wake up in the morning
And find me gone
Don?t worry bout what you see
I?ll come again for thee.

(repeat from beginning ? one full time)
