Gregory Porter - Real Good Hands lyrics
[Gregory Porter - Real Good Hands lyrics]
Well, maybe you know why I'm here
Your daughter and I have been dating for some time now
and you've always been real, real nice to me
I look at your family pictures and I realise that I want the same thing too
I almost feel like I could call you mummy and daddy
Really that's what I'm here to talk about
Mama don't you worry bout your daughter
'cause you're leaving her in real good hands
I'm a real good man
Now the picture of this man is slowly coming into view
Papa don't you fret and don't forget that one day you was in my shoes
Somehow you paid your dues
Now you're the picture of a man that I someday wanna be
I know it's hard, watching the changes in our lives
But I want to make your daughter my wife
Mama don't you worry bout your daughter
'cause you're leaving her in real good hands
I'm a real good man
Now the picture of this love is slowly coming into view
Papa don't you fret and don't forget that one day you was in my shoes
Somehow you pay your dues
Now you're the picture of the man that I someday wanna be
I know it's hard, watching the changes in our lives
But I want to make
Wanna make your daughter my wife
Mama don't you worry bout your daughter
'cause you're leaving her in real good hands
I'm a real good man
Now the picture of this love is surely coming into view
Papa don't you fret and don't forget that one day you was in my shoes
Somehow you've paid your dues
Now you're the picture of the man that I someday wanna be
And the picture of this man is surely coming into view
And the picture of my wife is slowly coming into view
And the picture of this love is surely coming into view
Yeah the picture of this love is surely coming into view
And I'm sure enough
I'm sure that's exactly what I wanna do
The picture of this man is surely coming into view
Your daughter and I have been dating for some time now
and you've always been real, real nice to me
I look at your family pictures and I realise that I want the same thing too
I almost feel like I could call you mummy and daddy
Really that's what I'm here to talk about
Mama don't you worry bout your daughter
'cause you're leaving her in real good hands
I'm a real good man
Now the picture of this man is slowly coming into view
Papa don't you fret and don't forget that one day you was in my shoes
Somehow you paid your dues
Now you're the picture of a man that I someday wanna be
I know it's hard, watching the changes in our lives
But I want to make your daughter my wife
Mama don't you worry bout your daughter
'cause you're leaving her in real good hands
I'm a real good man
Now the picture of this love is slowly coming into view
Papa don't you fret and don't forget that one day you was in my shoes
Somehow you pay your dues
