Ike & Tina Turner - Up In Heah lyrics

rate me

I used to live in the country

Brought up by the old folks rules

My pa was a preaching pastor

And my ma taught Sunday school

I was told about devilish

Who lived just to do no good

All I knew was my religion

And how to serve the best I could

I always knew about the son of evil

Could lead a woman to no good

He used to get me from the church window

Telling me I wouldn't be missed

Promising we'd just hold hands

And maybe just one little kiss

It was hard on me back south

I'm disowned by my family

But I'd do it all over again

That's how good it is to me

But now I'm the daughter of evil

And I'm trying to get you up in heah

Oh up in heah

Up in heah

Oh up in heah

Up in heah

Oh oh
