It's Not Going That Way Songtext
von Carmen McRae

I want to ride on a kiddie car to paradise
Zooming along through a candy color day
Laughing like crazy as we bump along to love
But it′s not going that way


I want to fly where I've never spread my wings before
Looping the loop like a bluebird out to play
Wobbling my head off with a serenade to love
But it′s not going that way

Oh, somewhere along this zigzag road
Your heart stopped dancing with me
Somebody stole my ticket to paradise
Who in this world could she be?

I wanna cry like a baby's never cried before
So where do I go on this melancholy day?
You know I love you, and I'd like to tag along
But it′s not going that way
