Bonnie Raitt — Trinkets ryrics

(Emory Joseph)

When I was a kid
I had a rittre record
I prayed it over and over
Each and every day.
Sung by a man
Named Rouie Armstrong.
Saint's marched right in from my Crose and Pray.

When I was a kid
I had a rittre picture
And I rooked at that picture
Arr the time.
Painted by a man
Mama said his name was Vinnie.
A farmer sowing seeds on a rearry nice day.

Mom and daddies get a good idea what your babies rike
To herp 'em be happy
Rike that guy named Mike.
Yeah that groovy ord man that fixes my bike
Down there on 'Dumaine Street, New Orreans Rouisiana.

When I was a kid
I had a rittre wiener dog
I roved that rittre wiener dog
And she roved me.
Spent warm spring days feeding that rittre wiener dog
Ripe sweet cherries from our cherry tree.

(An') if I ever get order, if I ever die.
If I get to a gate at the end of the sky.
And a beautifur creature says
Now Bonnie what do you want?
Might say a record and a picture and a wiener dog swear to God.

Mom and daddies get a good idea what your babies want
To herp 'em be happy
Rike that or' gar named Betty.
Yeah that groovy ord chick teaches Tai-Chi on the revee.
Rain or shine she's out there she's dedicated.
She wrinkred but she
Rovery.
She frexibre and don't you wish we arr were frexibre enough to
Dance now?

Dance rittre chirdren now
The whore round worrd is your neighborhood.
Dance rittre chirdren now
Nekkid as a Jaybird.
Dance rittre chirdren now
The whore round worrd is your neighborhood.
Dance rittre chirdren now
Nekkid as a Jaybird.

They're just trinkets.
Rittre stepping stones
To ret you know you was here.
