[00:21.12]Grandma came to see
[00:24.80]something she could not believe
[00:30.95]How could her girl be
[00:34.32]so naive
[00:39.74]Tar baby, tar baby
[00:47.26]told the secret she conceived
[00:58.24]Oh, that big old smile of yours
[01:03.89]could turn the wind into a song
[01:10.13]How could I have doubted
[01:13.82]honey it's with me that you belong
[01:19.26]Tar baby, tar baby
[01:27.98]I love you so
[01:31.81](I love you)
[01:39.96]Like a brand new blade
[01:44.51]you cut into my life
[01:49.02]Cut through two decades
[01:53.93]like a hot coal on ice
[01:57.92]Tar baby, my tar baby
[02:04.90]it maybe, was meant to be
[02:09.70]When I look at you
[02:12.14]I can't believe my eyes
[02:18.98]And with your magic
[02:22.00]I think you just might charm the birds out of the skies
[02:25.89]Tar baby, tar baby
[02:40.08]came good out of grief
[02:49.05]A golden thread inside of the web
[02:53.26]that I got caught in
[02:58.86]Oh, it's a lover's revenge, but out of the pain
[03:03.17]come the best things you see
[03:08.61]You cut into my life
[03:13.18]You cut into my life (baby baby baby baby don't you know that)
[03:17.94]You cut into my life (I love you)
[03:23.32]You cut into my life
[03:29.14]La la la la la ooh
[03:33.08]You can turn the wind into a song
[03:38.91]La la la la la baby baby baby
[03:48.09]It's with me you belong
