Hi De Ho Testo

[Lyrics/Music: Jerry Goffin, Carole King (1968)]

Hi de ho
Hi de hi
Gonna get me a piece of the sky
Gonna get me some of that old sweet roll
Singin' hi de hi de hi de hi de... hooooo

I've been down so low
Bottom looked like up
Once I thought that seconds saves
Was enough to fill my cup

Proffered all I got
Ain't no way to live
Taken by the ones who got
The least amount to give yeah

Hi de ho
Hi de hi
Gonna get me a piece of the sky
Gonna get me some of that old sweet roll
Singing hi de hi de hi de hi de... hooooo

. . . . . .

Once I met the devil
He was mighty slick
Tempted me with worldly goods
Said -you can have your pick-

when he laid that paper on me
And he showed me where to sign
Thank you very kindly
But I'm in too good-a mood to mind

Hi de ho
Hi de hi
Gonna get me a piece of the sky
I got get me some of that old sweet roll
I'm singin' hi de hi de hi de hi de hooooo yeah

(Hi de ho)
(Hi de hi) Shake your love
Gonna get me a piece of the sky
Gonna get me some of that old sweet roll
I'm singin' hi de hi de hi de hi de hoooo

(Hi de ho)
(Hi de hi) Shake your love
Gonna get me a piece of the sky
Gonna get me some of that old sweet roll
I'm singin'... hi... hi de hi de ho de... hoooo hoooo
