Text: Elvis Costello. The River in Reverse. Wonder Woman.
When I'm down and out
She stays by me without a doubt
And if I stumble like I'm gonna fall
She's right there at my beck and call
She's my wonder woman, wonder one
What she can't do, it can't be done
(Make me feel so good)
Early in the morning
(I feel so good and fine)
A friend a mine said with this girl I shouldn't stay
But hey, guess what? I stuck by her anyway
O Lord, I'm glad I did
Just look what I'd be missing if I'd listened to that young kid
Every now and then, yeah, yeah
I thank my maker for the shape I'm in
(Make me feel so good)
Early in the morning
(I feel so good and fine)
She makes me feel ten feet tall
If I'm worth anything she's got it all
Weeks into months, months into years
I got to tell you how sweet it is
Well, if you ever leave my life
I would surely die, cry and cry
(Make me feel so good)
Make me wanna, makes me feel
(Feel so good and fine)
Sometimes I think something will go wrong
Nothing this good ever lasts long
Then you come along and guarantee
Just how much you mean to me
Well, every now and then, yeah, yeah
I thank my maker for the shape I'm in
(Make me feel so good)
Early in the morning
(I feel so good and fine)
She stays by me without a doubt
And if I stumble like I'm gonna fall
She's right there at my beck and call
She's my wonder woman, wonder one
What she can't do, it can't be done
(Make me feel so good)
