I Am Telling You - Jerry Butler

I’m a telling you

I’m a telling you

I’m a telling you

I’m a telling you

I got up, I go to work

I try real hard to do my job

But before the day is done

I find out I done something wrong

(CHORUS)

I’m a telling you

I’m a telling you

I’m a telling you

I’m a telling you

Days are getting longer and

My nights are getting shorter

And my way gets darker

And my work gets harder

Now when I get home

The wife is mad

The little girl

She’s feeling bad

Little junior

He’s got the blues

Says he needs a Pair of baseball shoes

(CHORUS)

Now in everything that I do

I’m trying to make

One dream come true

And maybe someday

Lord, I’ll find

Satisfaction and

Peace of mind

(CHORUS)
