１月３０日（火）今朝の１曲
今日はなんだか優しい唄が聞きたくてこの曲をセレクト。
ジャマイカで６０年代といえばロックステディ。
ゆっくりと優しいコーラスのこんな曲。
The Paragons – The Tide Is High
The tide is high, but I’m holding on,
I’m gonna be your number one,
I’m not the kinda man, who gives up just like that. (no-oh)
It’s not the things you do, that really hurts me bad,
But it’s the way you do the things, you do to me.
I’m not the kinda man, who gives up just like that. (no-oh)
The tide is high, but I’m holding on,
I’m gonna be your number one,
Number one.. number one.. (one)
Every man wants you to be his girl,
But I’ll wait, my dear, till it’s my turn.
I’m not the kinda man who gives up just like that. (no-oh)
(..)
Every man wants you to be his girl, (hoo-hoo)
But I’ll wait, my dear, till it’s my turn.
I’m not the kinda man who gives up just like that. (no-oh)
The tide is high, but I’m holding on,
I’m gonna be your number one,
The tide is high, but I’m holding on,
I’m gonna be your number one.
The tide is high, but I’m holding on,
I’m gonna be..
