Mr C's Amazin' Fact
In the late 50s, one of Brenda Tarpley's best friends at Jr High and at Maplewood High in Nashville was a tall beauty named Rita Coolidge. As it happened, Coolidge married Kris Kristofferson in 1973 and had her own hit records. The couple divorced in 1980 and Kristofferson married his present wife, Lisa Meyers, in 1983.
Take the ribbon from your hair,
Shake it loose and let it fall,
Layin' soft against my skin.
Like the shadows on the wall.
Come and lay down by my side
till the early morning light
All I'm takin' is your time.
Help me make it through the night.
I don't care what's right or wrong,
I don't try to understand.
Let the devil take tomorrow.
Lord, tonight I need a friend.
[Kris is a bit lost as to whose line it is in this next verse]
Yesterday is dead and gone
and tomorrow's out of sight.
And it's sad to be alone.
Help me make it through the night.
I don't care what's right or wrong,
I don't try to understand.
Let the devil take tomorrow.
Lord, tonight I need a friend
[Kris goes "Whew!" to compliment Brenda's vocalization]
Yesterday is dead and gone
and tomorrow's out of sight.
And it's sad to be alone.
Help me make it through the night.
It's a shame to be alone.
Help me make it through the night.
