Lyrics

Jerry jeff walker

Hadn't slept in days and had no sense of time
My mind and body ached and I just wanted to unwind
So I made my way along a road by some cactus trees
To a little house of wood and stone where I heard she'd be
The word I heard was she could take your blues away
Massage your back, your arms, your legs and ease the aches
With every stroke she spoke a word that soothed my hurt
Relaxed me as I drifted off to the tune I heard

Tangee sweet lady, take away all of the walls
See if I'm inside here after all
Tangee sweet lady, ah, wake up the feelin's in me
And with it set my mind and body free I awoke
I thought for sure this was a dream
As the rain outside the window smelt so fresh and clean
The room we shared had handmade touches of her everywhere
By her front door I turned and placed a flower in her long brown hair

Tangee sweet lady, you took away all of the walls
And I see that I'm inside here after all
Tangee sweet lady you woke up the feelin's in me
And with it set my mind and body free

Tangee
Ah, tangee
