 PRINCE - Melody Cool Lyrics

Lead voice by Mavis Staples
I've seen a many bridges in my time and crossed every one of 'em
with no trouble at all [yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah]
I had trials and tribulations, heartaches and pains [well that's alright]
Survived 'em all baby [uh huh, say it, say it!]
Hmph, I'm still Melody, and I'm still Cool
Melody Cool

They call me Melody Cool [Melody, Melody]
I was here long before U [Melody, Melody]
If U're good I will love ya, [Melody] but I'm nobody's fool [Melody]
I'm Melody Cool

When I was born there were tidal waves [Melody, Melody]
whole town went under nobody saved [Melody, Melody]
At every funeral it rained every time I sang
Melody Cool

I have been here much longer, [Melody] longer than U [Melody]
,12m181219d2020156?mm6s
I'm Melody Cool

well now, everybody runnin' 'round talkin' 'bout saving souls
when they know good and plenty well they got enough trouble
trying to save their own
[alright, say it, say it girl]

[MelodyMelodyMelody]

Go on, go on.
every woman and every man [Melody]
one day they just got to understand [Melody]
that if we play in the same key everything will be
Melody Cool

[Melody, Melody, Melody, Melody]
what's your name? [Melody, Melody]
new power wave your hand, everybody sing out across the land
say hey hey hey [hey hey hey]
say hey hey hey [hey hey hey]
everybody say hey hey hey [hey hey hey]

they call me Melody Cool [Melody, Melody, Melody]

looka here young un
let me give U a piece of good advice, [Melody]
and I do get paid for counseling
it ain't no big I's and little U's in my life
so that's why U see they call me Melody Cool [Melody, Melody Cool, Melody]
I was here long before U [Melody, long before u]
if U're good [Melody] i will love U but I'm nobody's fool [Melody]
I'm Melody Cool
[Melody, Melody Cool, Melody long before U]
