Jemima Surrender lyrics Lyrics

song lyrics Jemima Surrender lyrics Songwriters: Helm, Levon; Robertson, Robbie; Jemima surrender, I m gonna give it to you Ain t no pretender, gonna ride in my canoe If I were a barker in a girly show Tell ya what I d do I d lock the door, tear my shirt, and let my river flow Oh, oh, sweet Jemima won t you come out tonight? The ground is so warm and the moon is so bright Jemima surrender, that s all ya have to do I ll bring over my fender, and I ll play all night for you There s a bird on my head and his mouth won t talk You know he laughs just like a goose But looks like a hawk Jemima, you know what I m tryin to say Meet me in front and we ll fly away You can change your name You can find a new walk You can change a lock, it s all the same You don t have to give out If you ll only give in You can jump and shout But can t you see girl, that I m bound to win Jemima surrender, I m gonna give it to you Ain t no pretender, gonna see my tattoo I hand you my rod and you hand me that line That s what you do And now, we ain t doin much fishin , or drinkin any wine Sweet Jemima, if I were king I d fix you up with a diamond ring song lyrics
