lyrics

Mmm hmm
Ooh hoo, ooh ho, ooh hoo

Oh Emma Lee
Honey why can’t you see
You need to know yourself
You can’t do that through me

He said I lost my daddy
My daddy lost me
So I know that it’s important
To say what you mean
And you’ll find no answers
In your bottled up dreams
You gotta break the glass
And let your soul be seen

Oh Emma Lee
Honey why can’t you see
You need to know yourself
You can’t do that through me

I’m drunk on your body
Your lips are like wine, mmm
But you tasted something better
And wasted me dry
And you can have me for wanting
But not for pity or kind
And if you heart ain’t aching for me
Then leave me behind

Oh Emma Lee
Honey why can’t you see
You need to know yourself
You can’t do that through me

Ah ha
And the things you hate about yourself, mmm
Are the things you’ll hate in someone else
And we can cry, cry, cry
And we can yell
But I’d rather be the guy
Who did you well

Oh yeah, Emma Lee
Honey why can’t you see, hey now
You need to know yourself
You can’t do that through me
Oh yeah yeah, Emma Lee
Forget the meant to be
Ooh woo hoo, well you need to know yourself
You can’t do that through me

No you can’t do that through me
No you can’t do that through me now baby
You can’t do that through me yeah
Oh baby, Emma Lee
Mmm hmm, Emma Lee
Ha hoo, Emma Lee
Oh baby
Ah baby
Uh huh
Hey Mama
Hey Mama
Hey Mama
Hey Mama
Hey Mama
Hey yeah
