The Same Rope Songtext
von Etta James

Just because you are riddin′ high
And doing good for yourself, oh yeah
You want to smile and wave goodbye
And give your love to someone else, uhun

One day just wait and see
You're gonna be hurt just like me
You know you are wrong
But ahead on

I don′t think it will be long
Before she will be gone
And I'm willing to set you free
If you avoid her company

I believe that the (same rope)
That pulls you (up up)
I said the (same rope)
That pulls you (up up)
(I believe the same rope that pull you up)
Sure can hang you


One day she'll get tired of you
The way that you got tired of me, oh yeah
You′ll see what I′m going through
When you're alone and in misery, oh yeah

I hate to say I told you so
So you better think before you go
I think you are such a fool
For making such a move

Nobody else would do
The things I′ve done for you
And I'm willing to set you free
If you take this, this tip from me

I believe that the (the same rope)
That pulls you (up up)
I said the (the same rope)
That pulls you (up up)
(I believe the same rope that pull you up)
Sure can hang you

You know the we week may same day be strong
(Oohh I will I know)
Never could do nobody wrong
I found out a long time ago


I believe the same rope (the same rope)
That pulls you (up up)
Is gonna hang you
(The same rope)
