Wilson Pickett - Fire and Water

Copied!

{Verse 1}
Every single day
I got a heartache comin' my way
I don't want to say goodbye
But look at the tears you made me cry
I don't wanna say goodbye, mama
But look at the way you made me cry, yeah
Every way this dies
You've got a heart that's made of ice
That's why I know

{Chorus}
Fire and Water
Has to make you their daughter
You've got what it takes
To make a poor man heart break
A poor man heart break

{Verse 2}
Woman you turn me on
As quick as a flash, your love is gone
Baby I'm gonna leave you now
Ah, I got to make you believe somehow

{Chorus}
That fire and water
Has to make you their daughter
You got what it takes
To make a poor man heart break
A poor man heart break
Ah!

{Refrain}
I don't wanna say goodbye
But look at the way you made me cry, yeah
Every way this dies
You gotta heart that's made of ice
That's why I know

{Chorus}
Fire and water
Has to make you their daughter
You got what it takes
To make a grown man heart break

{Refrain}
Oh, water, water has to make you their daughter
Ah, you got what it takes
To make a poor man heart break, Ah!
(Water) Your water, has to make you their daughter
You got what it takes
To make a poor man heart break

{Outro}
Fire and water
Has to make you their daughter

edit bio

Wilson Pickett (18 March 1941 – 19 January 2006) was born in Prattville, AL and was an R&B and soul singer and songwriter. He recorded over 50 songs which made the R&B charts, and he recorded many at the Muscle Shoals Sound Studio in Sheffield, AL.

Pickett started his music career in gospel, and he said toward the end of his life that he had mixed feelings about abandoning gospel in favor of secular music. He said, “If you leave God and go to the devil, you’re going to go to hell. I don’t know, I wanted to sing gospel, but I wanted to make me some money too.”

Picket was inducted to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1991.
