Song of the Week - Genie

David Ryan Harris - Genie (Smith's Olde Bar 6/28/06)




LYRICS:
My, my what good fortune.
I found a genie on my front porch and I’m gonna use him
to get next to you.
I won’t wish for diamonds, long life, or money
Just for a moment alone with you honey.
I’m trying to use him to get next to you.

Chorus:
I’ve got a feeling I’m wasting my wishes
I’ve got a feeling you’ll never be true
I’ve got a feeling your mountains too high
your river is too wide
I’ve got a feeling you’ve got a genie too,
and your genie is stronger than mine.

You’re mine all mine, you’re my destiny.
I’ll have my genie use his trickery to tempt and entice
oh, to bring me next to you.
Mystical sorcerer taste my longing, sate my appetite.
I’m gonna use him to put a hex on you.

Chorus

Your genie does things that mine can’t do.
Your genie does things that mine can’t do.

Chorus

Your genie does things that mine can’t do.
Your genie does things that mine can’t do.
Your genie does things that mine can’t do.
Your genie does things that mine can’t do.
