Lyrics

I had the pleasure of recording this song The saxofon is from... A group called The Crusaders, do you remember them? This gentleman's name was Wilton Felder He said "You think you can keep your head But all around you they're losing theirs You can and you will" Inherit the wind, my brother on the sax, prepare for me Fernando You play so good Cool, no, they like it, they love you, take a bow I'm serious about that Oh, yeah I'll tell you what, we got real nice crowd And they're in a real good mood Imma let you sing, okay? This is your shot, but you can't mess up Fernando This is very important, I take my music very seriously, you know that You know I overheard a conversation We're riding down the highway on the bus and my brother was telling someone in the band He didn't see, he thought I was asleep Said "My brother never lets me sing, I thinks he's scared to let me sing I mean I blow a horn, I do a whole lot of things, I'm good at a lot of things, but..." Yeah, they were talking a lot of BS Would you like to hear him? Shhh... you don't have to do this, if you're nervous you don't have to do it Okay now, we'll see... Okay, enough is enough Enough is enough, here take this microphone You gotta be cool now See, one thing about you, you get really excited See, the slower you do it, the longer it's gonna last But sometimes that feel is so... no, no good You start to moving too fast and before you know it it's over, see? Just be real cool, you know? Ain't no big thing, okay? Cause I can see the excitement and the perspiration on your forehead I mean you want to get down quick Take your time, is it alright to see, then, okay Woah, time keeps coming and dreams just fade away But the wind still remains To takes us to a brighter day Can you feel, can you feel it growing? Talking 'bout the storm inside of you Inherit the wind Oh, you wanna try, my friend, my friend You know what? See, I know You think you don't need a song I'm not ready to leave yet I got a whole lotta time in my hands Feel like I wanna party now Did you come to party now? That's good, Fernando You don't need all of that to hold up your pants You got the suspender and a belt Damn! Ladies and gentlemen we have a new member Of Bobby Womack and company Now we'd like to introduce him I don't want to put you on the spot but you know I do eveything spontaneous, okay? Ricky, Ricky Howe, come on now Y'know, I always tell you, you got a whole mic Are you all still out there? Now you might think I'm circling the jazz, but yo know I love to put people on the spot I say the word is pay attention We'll see if Ricky's paying attention tonight Time keeps coming Oh, the dreams they fade away But the wind still remains To take us to a brighter day You can feel, don't ya feel it coming? Talking 'bout the storm inside of you Inherit the wind You wanna try, my friend Yeah, yeah Yeah, yeah Inherit the wind Yeah, yeah Enough is enough! Stop, stop Ricky Howe Inherit the wind You wanna try, my friend, tonight Let it all out, baby Inherit the wind
