Purple House (With Maceo Parker) Songtext
von Prince

Ooh, yeah
Yeah

There′s a purple house over yonder
That's where my baby stays (that′s where my baby stays), oh yeah
There's a purple house over yonder
That's where my baby stays (that′s where my baby gets down)
I ain′t been home to see my baby
In about 99 and a half days


Wait a minute, something's wrong (something′s wrong)
The key will not unlock this door (no, no, oh)
Something's wrong (something′s wrong), something's wrong
(Something′s wrong) the key will not unlock this door
They changed the lock (it won't open), it won't even fit no more

I got a bad, bad feeling
That my baby (baby) don′t live here no more
Ah, that′s alright, still got my guitar, look out, get down

But really, I might as well go back over yonder
Way over yonder, across the hill (way over yonder)
(Yeah so) well, I might as well go back over yonder
Over yonder, across the hill
Nobody knows how I feel (how I feel)

My baby don't wanna love me no more
I know good and well, somebody will (oh, c′mon, Lord)
