It's Too Late

It's Too Late - Wilson Pickett

Do lu do oh oh

Do lu do oh oh

It's too late (too late too late)

Said it's too late yes it is (too late too late)

My love is gone away to stay (too late too late)

Don't you know it's too late now (too late too late)

Listen children I wanna tell you this

It's too late to cry (too late to cry)

It's too late to cry now (too late to cry)

My love is gone away yes she has (too late too late)

Oh oh (too late) she has (too late)

Ah ah ah do lu do lu

I just guess that you're wondering why I always sing a sad song

But you see I had a woman who was very good to me

And I can remember the times

She used to sit down and tell me these words

Said Pickett I want you to know

I love you from the bottom of my heart

And whatever you need

I don't want you to go to your mother your father

Your sister or your brother

I'll be a leading pull when you're falling down

When all your money's gone

I want you to know you can count on me

But I didn't appreciate that woman then

You know what I had to run and chase

After every little girl around town

So finally one day I got home and I found my little girl gone

And people you know it hurt me so bad (ha ha)

I had to hang my little head and cry

Then I began to read the letter she left for me laying there

It read like this children

It's too late she's gone oh yeah (too late she's gone)

It's too late I'm gone away (too late she's gone)

Ah yeah (too late) don't you know it children (too late)

Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah (too late too late)

Say it one more time (too late) listen (too late)

I wanna hear you understand what I'm talking about (too late)
