Status Quo - Sherri Don't Fail Me Now lyrics

rate me

( Bown / Edwards )

Got a mess in my backyard

I'm gonna clean it all up

Stop a-doing things backwards

Start struttin 'my stuff

Oh now the time has come to change

Strawberry fields

Kicking my heels

Losing my place

And forgetting my name

There's a cupboard in my room

I got a skeleton key

Gonna crack it wide open

Stop 'em following me

Oh now it's time to change it all

The gohst's still there

I'm tearing my hair

Chewing my nails

And I'm climbing the walls

But it's alright

If I got a problem

You got all the answers

Stay this night

I'll make it up to you

In some way somehow

Oh but Sherri don't fail me now

Gonna get a black spotlight

Gonna stage a new plan

Gonna wash away the bloodstains

Stop scrubbing my hands

Oh no but here it comes again

A dirty sea

Is swallowing me

I'm fighting for air

On the dangerous bends

But it's alright

If I got a problem

You got all the answers

Stay this night

I'll make it up to you

In some way somehow

Oh but Sherri don't fail me now

But it's alright

If I got a problem

You got all the answers

Stay this night

I'll make it up to you

In some way somehow

Oh but Sherri don't fail me now

Oh but Sherri don't fail me now
