Down to the Market Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I'm gonna take you down to the market, lover
'Cause that's where the trouble starts
You gotta get it into your heart
There are people out there to make you feel bad
But don't you listen, baby, don't you listen
'Cause I know you feel that way
[Chorus]
But I'm getting so tired of people always crossing my wires
Life's just far too short for miscommunication
[Verse 2]
I'm gonna take her down to the market today
'Cause that’s where the trouble starts
You don't want nobody else
There are people out there to make you feel good
But don't you listen, baby, don't you listen
'Cause you know they want it all
[Chorus]
But I'm getting so tired of people always crossing my wires
And life's just far too short for miscommunication
[Instrumental Break]
I'm gonna take you down to the market, lover
'Cause that's where the trouble starts
You gotta get it into your heart
There are people out there to make you feel bad
But don't you listen, baby, don't you listen
'Cause I know you feel that way
[Chorus]
But I'm getting so tired of people always crossing my wires
Life's just far too short for miscommunication
[Verse 2]
I'm gonna take her down to the market today
'Cause that’s where the trouble starts
You don't want nobody else
There are people out there to make you feel good
But don't you listen, baby, don't you listen
'Cause you know they want it all
[Chorus]
But I'm getting so tired of people always crossing my wires
And life's just far too short for miscommunication
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
Oh, I'm getting so tired of people always crossing my wires
And life's just far too short for miscommunication
[Outro]
Communication, communication
Oh, I'm getting so tired of people always crossing my wires
And life's just far too short for miscommunication
[Outro]
Communication, communication
