Misty Morning lyrics

[Bob Marley]

Misty mornin`, don`t see no sun;
I know you`re out there somewhere having fun.
There is one mystery - yea-ea-eah - I just can`t express:
To give your more, to receive your less.
One of my good friend said, in a reggae riddim,
`Don`t jump in the water, if you can`t swim.`
The power of philosophy - yea-ea-eah - floats through my head
Light like a feather, heavy as lead;
Light like a feather, heavy as lead, yeah.

See no sun! Oh.
Time has come, I want you -
I want you to straighten out my tomorrow! Uh.
I want - I want - I want you - (tomorrow).
Oh, wo-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah!
I want you to straighten out my (tomorrow)!

Misty (morning) mornin`, don`t see no sun;
I know you`re out there somewhere having fun.
Mysteries I just can`t express:
How can you ever give your more to receive your less?
Like my good friend said, in a reggae riddim:
`You can`t jump - you can`t jump in the water, if you can`t swim.`

I want you (I want you) - I want you to straighten out my today -
My tomorrow - my-my-my - my - my
(I want you to straighten out my tomorrow).
On a misty morning, uh! (I want you to straighten out my tomorrow).
Oh-oh oh-oh-oh-oh!
(I want you to straighten out my tomorrow)
Straighten out my tomorrow - my tomorrow! Need some straightenin` out!
(I want you to straighten out my tomorrow)
Mist! Mm. (I want) Mist! (you to straighten out my tomorrow)
Misty! Oh! (I want you to straighten out my tomorrow) - /fadeout/
