Millie Jackson – There You Are lyrics

Shucks, I thought this party was gonna be really hitting on something
Ain't nothing around here but a bunch of women, nobody to dance with
Every man that looks like him already been taken
Sho' can't trust nobody to tell you where to go these days
Uh oh, hmm Lord, have mercy

There you are looking like a king, but everything
There you are
If I spoke to you, would you smile and say hello
Or would you formally announce that you had somewhere else to go, oh, oh, oh
But there you are holding all my desires
I'm getting butterflies, 'cause there you are, yeah

Don't move, come here, anybody
I must be introduced
If I did it myself, the man just might think that I'm forward and loose, oh, oh, oh
But there you are, there you are, baby I'm looking at you
Hey, whoo, good God almighty, baby
Uh, huh Sho'nuff

Hey, Helen, the fella standing over there on the corner
Do you know his name? Oh, you do, Jimmy?
Would you introduce me to him?
See, that's why I don't like to go nowhere with you
What kind of friend are you?
That's alright, wait 'til the next time you want somebody to hang out with you
You're gonna hang out by yourself, 'cause I'm gonna be with Jimmy
Ah, I'll do it myself, nevermind, thank you
Ah, Jimmy, my name is Millie
I saw you standing over here like this
I thought if I could come over and have a few words with you, yeah, Millie

And here we are, you standing here next to me
Tell me now, my sweet Jimmy
Could it be, could it be that you are my destiny, oh, ah
Jimmy, we oughta get together, let's get out here on the floor and talk about it a little bit
I know it's gonna be alright, you and me, baby, Lord
I don't care where we go, you can go to my house, I go to your house
Any way you wanna do it as long as you and I get together, baby
Yeah, it's gonna be alright, uh, huh
