In the shadow of your father

Sweet brown eyes of the one I love

I can't wait another minute baby

To do the things that we never done

Everybody gets hungry sometimes

Your love is like a kettle on

In the shadow of your father

Guess I get a little sad sometimes

Shake a little for me baby

Take me to the water when my well runs dry

Shake a little for me baby

Just a little now, just a little now

Everybody gets lonely sometimes

Guess a stranger is a friend in need

In the shadow of this New York skyline

All these stories looking down on me

Everybody feels the water rising

It could go on to her or enjoy the ride

Ah when you're dancing for me now baby

I don't feel so small against the tide

Shake a little for me baby

Take me to the water when my well runs dry

Shake a little for me baby

Shake a little for me baby

Take me to the water when my cup runs dry

Shake a little for me baby

Just a little now, just a little now, just a little now

Shake a little for me baby

Take me to the water when my cup runs dry

Shake a little for me baby

Shake a little for me baby

Yeah baby, shake it onetime for me

Shake a little for me baby

Just a little now, just a little now, just a little now

Shake a little for me baby

Shake a little for me baby

Shake a little for me baby

Shake a little for me baby
