Lyrics - Misty Morning by Bob Marley

Misty mornin’, don’t see no sun;
I know you’re out there somewhere having fun.
There is one mystery - yea-ea-eah -
I just can’t express:
To give your more, to receive your less.
One of my good friend said, in a reggae riddim,
Don’t jump in the water, if you can’t swim.
The power of philosophy - yea-ea-eah - floats through my head
Light like a feather, heavy as lead;
Light like a feather, heavy as lead, yeah.
See no sun! oh.
Time has come,
I want you -
I want you to straighten out my tomorrow! uh.
I want -
I want -
I want you - (tomorrow).
Oh, wo-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah!
I want you to straighten out my (tomorrow)!
Misty (morning) mornin’, don’t see no sun;
I know you’re out there somewhere having fun.
Mysteries
I just can’t express:
How can you ever give your more to receive your less?
Like my good friend said, in a reggae riddim:
You can’t jump - you can’t jump in the water, if you can’t swim.
I want you (
I want you) -
I want you to straighten out my today -
My tomorrow - my-my-my - my - my(
I want you to straighten out my tomorrow).
On a misty morning, uh! (
I want you to straighten out my tomorrow).
Oh-oh oh-oh-oh-oh!(
I want you to straighten out my tomorrow)
Straighten out my tomorrow - my tomorrow! need some straightenin’ out!(
I want you to straighten out my tomorrow)
Mist! mm. (
I want) mist! (you to straighten out my tomorrow)
Misty! oh! (
I want you to straighten out my tomorrow) - /fadeout/
