6 O'clock Blues

If my house flowed down in the river

If all of these walls tumble down in the storm

If this war took all of my money

All of my pride but I'd never be poor, ooh

As long as we got each other

There's nothing in the world that can steal my joy

Yeah, as long as we got each other

We can overcome the madness of the world, yeah

'Cause people don't make the world go round like they used to

But I know if I got one thing, baby I know I got you

Yeah, you keep me sheltered from the 6 o'clock blues

And if I know one thing's going to be alright

Then I know that it's me and you, oh, oh

So they say we're running out of time

Running out of water, running out of light

We all got so many problems and just not enough answers

And if we keep on asking they gon' tell us what we like

Oh, but as long as we got each other

Oh, there's nothing in the world that can steal my joy

As long as we got each other

We can overcome the madness of the world

Oh, they can sell me a story and tell me we're in danger

But our love will never die

'Cause people don't make the world go round like they used to

But I know if I got one thing, baby I know I got you

You keep me sheltered from the 6 o'clock blues

Yeah, you keep me sheltered from the 6 o'clock

Yeah, you keep me sheltered, sheltered, sheltered, sheltered

Baby, promise if I know one thing it's going to be alright

I know that I got my baby

Like the birds that live in the sky

We never have to worry 'cause somehow we'll get by

Let's come together, we can make it alright

But the world will never change just like you and I

Oh, people don't make the world go round like they used to

But I know if I got one thing, baby I know I got you

You keep me sheltered from the 6 o'clock blues

Yeah, and if I know one thing it's going to be alright

Then I know that it's me and my beautiful baby
