Testo Shine - Ry Cooder
Testo della canzone Shine (Ry Cooder), tratta dall'album Jazz
When I was born they christened me plain Samuel Johnson Brown
But I hadn't grown so very big before some folks in this town
Had changed it 'round to Sambo, I was Rastus to a few
Then Chocolate Drop was added by some others that I knew
And then to cap the climax, I was strolling down the line
When someone shouted, "Fellas, hey, come on and pipe the Shine"
But I don't care a bit, here's how I figure it
Well, just because my hair is curly
And just because my teeth are pearly
Just because I always wear a smile
Likes to dress up in the latest style
Just because I'm glad I'm livin'
Take trouble smilin', never whine
Just because my color's shady
Slightly different, maybe that's why they call me Shine
They say just because my hair is curly
And just because my teeth are pearly
And just because I always wear a smile
I wear my jeans like a man, I mean
(He always dresses in the latest style)
Just because I'm glad I'm livin'
Take trouble smilin', never whine
Just because my color's shady
Slightly different, maybe that's why they call me Shine
