High Time We Went Songtext
von Joe Cocker

Well, it′s five o'clock in the mornin′
Feel just like the end of a mule
Somebody's been yawnin'
Tryin′ to break out the rules

Yes, it′s high time we went
Ain't it high time we went?
Ain′t it high time we went there?
Ain't it high time we went?

Well, it′s four o'clock in the mornin′
Somebody's shoutin' the news
Nobody′s been yawnin′
Preachers all around for the blues

Ain't it high time we went?
Ain′t it high time we went?
Ain't it high time we went?
Ain′t it high time we went?


Three o'clock and I′m dreamin'
Somebody's shoutin′ the way
Nobody can see me
Tryin′ to find a brand new day

Ain't it high time we went?
Ain′t it high time we went?
Ain't it high time we went?
Ain′t it high time we went?

Two o'clock and I′m rollin'
Everywhere I look is the same
Somebody's been callin′
Tryin′ to put the blame on my name

Ain't it high time we went?
Ain′t it high time we went?
Ain't it high time we went?
Ain′t it high time we went?

It's one o′clock
Fallin' for the same old game
Somebody's been shoutin′
Let me be by the stage


Ain′t it high time we went?
Ain't it high time we went?
Ain′t it high time we went?
Ain't it high time we went?

Well, it′s twelve o'clock and I got there
Didn′t think I'd make it in time
Somebody's been shoutin′
"Don′t forget the lemon and lime"

Ain't it high time we went?
Ain′t it high time we went?
Ain't it high time we went?
Ain′t it high time we went?
