Williams' Blood

Grace Jones Grace Jones

You can’t save me
You can’t save a wretch like me

When she was seventeen, she married a preacher man
And she settled down in a little part of town
Followed him all around, having little babies
Singing in a little church, in a little ghost town

She’s so happy
(I don’t wanna keep up, I can’t keep up)
She’s so happy, keeping up
(I don’t wanna keep up, keeping up with the Joneses)

Finally she told me grandpa Dan traveled
Playing on the road with Nat King Cole
And he womanized, staying up all night
Cruisin’ up around the town, from town to town, to town

Let me go, I’m wicked
Just let me go, I’m all wicked

“Why 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 soul”

I got the Williams’ blood in me
I got the Williams’ blood in me
I got the Williams’ blood in me (got the Williams’ blood)
I got the Williams’ blood in me

In me, in me, in me
Feel it running through my veins
My Williams’ blood in me

In a room full of doves, I’m waiting for the angels
Spreading my wings so I can fly

Let me fly, I’m wicked (You can’t save a wretch like me)
Let me fly, I’m wicked
Just let me go, I’m all wicked, Williams’ kid

“Why don’t you be a Jones like your sister and your brother Noel?”
They say, “when are you gonna be a Jones just like Utah and dad, God bless his soul”

I got the Williams’ blood in me (got the Williams’ blood)
I got the Williams’ blood in me
I got the Williams’ blood in me (I’ll never change)
I got the Williams’ blood in me

Let me go, I got the Williams’ blood in me
I’ll never change, let me go, I’m all wretched

Let me go, I’m wretched, I’m wretched
Let me go, I’m so wretched
Let me go, I don’t wanna keep up, I can’t keep up
Williams’ wicked

Let me go, I don’t wanna keep up, I can’t keep up
I got the Williams’ 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 got the Williams’ 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 got the Williams’ blood in me

Amazing Grace
How sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me
