Over You
Composer(s): Allen Toussaint; Allen Julian Orange
Performer(s): The Neville Brothers



There'll be some slow walkin' 
Gonna be some sad talkin' 
There'll be some flowers bringin' 
Gonna be some sad singin' 
Over you, I say over you 
Over you, pretty baby 
If I ever hear you say we're through 

There'll be some long black limousines 
People peepin' from their window screens 
Parade of cars with their headlights on 
All of that will be goin' on 
Over you, I said over you 
Over you, pretty baby 
If I ever hear you say we're through 

There'll be a hole about six feet deep 
For you baby to take your sleep 
Into a pine box an' down you'll go 
Where you will stay where it's free of snow 
Over you, I said over you 
Over you, pretty baby 
If I ever hear you say we're through 

All your folks will be dressed in black 
Ride a long black Cadillac 
Yeah, baby they'll be puttin' you away 
The funeral home'll have the business that day 
Over you, I said over you 
Over you, pretty baby 
If I ever hear you say we're through 

Say I want to slay you baby, Whoa now 
Over you, pretty baby 
If I ever hear you say we're through 

Say you'll never leave me 
I say you'll never leave me 
Say I'm gonna get rid of you , baby 
If I ever hear you say we're through 

Whoa, I love you 
No tellin' what I'd do 
That's why baby 
I want to do all these things to you
