Little Feat - All That You Can Stand Lyrics
B. Wray, B. Payne, P. BarrereMight be a story you read in a book'Bout a irl who drank from the devil's cupMight be someone you know so wellJust might be me, you never can tellLe dame Laveau burning at the stakeYou're the hero, but just a little bit too lateMight be you, might be meMight be some gris gris that you just can't seeSpirits in the bedroomCandles in the hallShadows on the ceilingDon't answer the callI'm gonna take you backI'm gonna take you way backAnd give youAll that you can standI'm gonna give youAll that you can standFires off the coast of MartiniqueStories you've heard, you dare not speakDown on a rampart, you don't go aloneMight be an angel of mercyMight be a black cat boneEchoes in the stairwellCurtains start to blowSugar, Honey, a touch of steelThere's something you should knowI'm gonna take you backI'm gonna take you way backAnd give youAll that you can standI'm gonna give youAll that you can standDance Colinda on St. John's eveBells on her anklesMakes you believeGood time dresses on Lake PontchatrainA vision in the rainSpirits in the bedroomCandles in the hallShadows on the ceilingDon't answer the callI'm gonna take you backI'm gonna take you way backAnd give youAll that you can standI'm gonna give youAll that you can stand
