Real real gone I got hit by a bow and arrow Got me down to the very marrow And I'm real real gone
Real real gone I can't stand up by myself Don't you know I need your help And I'm real real gone
Some people say You can make it on your own Oh, you can make it if you try
I know better now You can't stand up alone Oh, baby, that is why
I'm real real gone I can't stand up by myself Don't you know? I need your help You're a friend of mine and I'm real real gone
And Sam Cooke is on the radio And the night is filled with space And your fingertips touch my face You're a friend of mine and I'm real real gone
I'm real gone now Oh Lord, I got hit by a bow and arrow Got me down to the very marrow You're a friend of mine and I'm real real gone And I'm real real gone, I'm real gone
