Williams Blood

You can't save me
You can't save a wretch like meWhen she was seventeen
She married a preacher man
And she settled down
In a little part of townFollowed him all around
Having little babies
Singing in a little church
In a little ghost townShe's so happy
(I don't want to keep up, I can't keep up)
She's so happy, keeping up
(I don't wanna keep up, keeping up with the Jones)Finally she told me
Grandpa Dan traveled
Playing on the road
With Nat King ColeAnd he womanized
Staying up all night
Cruisin' up around the town
From town to town, to townLet me go, ahh, hurricane
Just let me go, ahh, I'm going to careWhy don't you be a Jones
Like your sister and your brother Noel?
When are you gonna be a Jones
Just like Utah and dad, God bless his soulI've got the William's blood in me
I've got the William's blood in me
I've got the William's blood in me
I've got the William's blood in meIn me, in me, in me
Running though my veins
William's blood in meIn a room full of doves
I'm waiting for the angels
Spreading my wings
So I can flyLet me fly, hurricane
(You can't save a wretch like me)
Let me fly, ahh, hurricane
Just let me go, ooh, hurricane
William's hurricaneWhy don't you be a Jones
Like your sister and your brother Noel?
I say when are you gonna be a Jones
Just like Utah and dad, God bless his soul, ohI've got the William's blood in me
I've got the William's blood in me
I've got the William's blood in me
(I'll never change)
I've got the William's blood in meOoh, let me go
I've got the William's blood in me
I'll never change
Let me go, oh, I'll never changeLet me go, never change, never change
Let me go, oh, oh, so wretched
Let me go
(I don't wanna keep up, I can't keep up)
William's hurricaneLet me go
(I don't wanna keep up, I can't keep up)
I've got the William's blood in me
Let me go
(I don't wanna keep up, I can't keep up)Let me go
(I don't wanna keep up, I can't keep up)
I've got the William's blood in me
Let me go
(I don't wanna keep up, I can't keep up)Let me go
(I don't wanna keep up, I can't keep up)
I've got the William's blood in meAmazing Grace
How sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me
