Jo Dee Messina - Lesson In Leaving (akoestisch)

Het is echt een plezier om deze Jo Dee Messina met zo veel fun live aan het werk te zien ondanks een kikker in de keel halverwege het nummer. Lesson In Leaving was oorspronkelijk van Dottie West die er in 1980 een #1 hit mee haalde. Jo Dee haalde er in 1999 zeven weken de 2de plaats mee.

Songtekst :

Somebody’s gonna give you
A lesson in leavin’
Somebody’s gonna give you back
What you’ve been givin’
And I hope that I’m around
To watch ‘em knock you down
It’s like you to love ‘em and leave ‘em
Just like you loved me and left me
It’s like you to do that sort of thing
Over and over again
You’re a fool-hearted man

I hear you’ve been askin’ about me
From some of my friends
Well, you’d better believe
I’m not goin’ through that again
You’re the kind of man
A woman thinks she can change
Oh, but the only thing changin’
Is my way of thinkin’
And I’m thinkin’ that maybe someday

Somebody’s gonna give you
A lesson in losin’
Somebody’s gonna do to you
What you’ve been doin’
And I hope that I’m around
To watch ‘em knock you down
Somebody’s gonna give you
A lesson in hurtin’
Somebody’s gonna leave you
With your fire burnin’
And no way to put it out
Baby, there ain’t no doubt
You’re a fool-hearted man

Yeah, you’re the kind of man
A woman thinks she can change
But the only thing changin’
Is my way of thinkin’
And I’m thinkin’ that maybe someday

Somebody’s gonna give you
A lesson in leavin’
Somebody’s gonna give you back
What you’ve been givin’
And I hope that I’m around
To watch ‘em knock you down
It’s like you to love ‘em and leave ‘em
Just like you loved me and left me
It’s like you to do that sort of thing
Over and over again
You’re a fool-hearted man

Somebody’s gonna give you
A lesson in leavin’
Somebody’s gonna give you back
What you’ve been givin’
And I hope that I’m around
To watch ‘em knock you down
It’s like you to love ‘em and leave ‘em
Just like you loved me and left me
It’s like you to do that sort of thing
Over and over again
You’re a fool-hearted man

Oh, a fool-hearted man
Oh, whoa
Oh, a fool-hearted man
