Corinne Bailey Rae
Put Your Records On
[Verse 1]
Yeah, three little birds sat on my window
And they told me I don't need to worry
Summer came like cinnamon
So sweet
Little girls double-dutch on the concrete

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Maybe sometimes, we got it wrong, but it’s alright
The more things seem to change, the more they stay the same
Don't you hesitate

[Chorus]
Girl, put your records on, tell me your favorite song
You go ahead, let your hair down
Sapphire and faded jeans, I hope you get your dreams
Just go ahead, let your hair down

[Post-Chorus]
You're gonna find yourself somewhere, somehow

[Verse 2]
Blue as the sky, sunburnt and lonely
Sippin’ tea in a bar by the roadside
Don't you let those other boys fool you
Gotta love that afro hairdo, yeah
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Maybe sometimes, we feel afraid, but it's alright
The more you stay the same, the more they seem to change
Don't you think it's strange?

[Chorus]
Girl, put your records on, tell me your favorite song
You go ahead, let your hair down, babe
Sapphire and faded jeans, I hope you get your dreams
Just go ahead, let your hair down

[Post-Chorus]
You're gonna find yourself somewhere, some

[Bridge]
Just more than I could take, pity for pity's sake
Some nights kept me awake, I thought that I was stronger
When you gonna realize that you don't even have to try?

[Chorus]
Girl, put those records on, tell ’em your favorite song
You go ahead, let your hair down
Sapphire and faded jeans, I hope you get your dreams
Just go ahead, let your hair down, yeah

[Chorus]
Girl, put your records on, tell me your favorite song
Just go ahead, let your hair down
Sapphire and faded jeans, I hope you get your dreams
Just go ahead, let your hair down
[Outro]
You’re gonna find yourself somewhere, somehow
