James Taylor - Little More Time With You Lyrics
Gotta watchdog watching me, doggy, watching me packing my bags.
He knows I'm leaving town, I can see that it's a drag.
Why leave the life I love here in the great state of Maine
just to ride that shining rail, just to size that ball and chain?
Gotta spend just a little more time with you, oh oh oh.
I passed on the cocaine, said bye-bye to my methadone.
Put down the bottle for one more day, backing off of my tobacco jones.
Still feel like a hopeless junkie, like a man who can't say no.
I look back and there's that monkey, rascal won't let go, let me go.
Gotta spend just a little more time with you, that's right.
Gotta spend just a little more time with you, oh oh.
Gotta spend just a little more time with you, yes I do, yes I do, now.
I get high and I can't come down, I get high just hanging around.
I get high, I go lost and found, I get high oh I oh I,
gotta spend just a little more time with you, I'll be walking in the light.
Gotta spend just a little bit more time with you, oh oh.
Gotta spend just a little more time with you, just a little more time, just a little more time.
Gotta spend just a little bit more time with you, oh oh....

"Little More Time With You"
(harmonica- Stevie Wonder)
Oh oh oh oh
Gotta' watchdog watchin' me doggy- watchin' me packin' my bags
He knows I'm leavin' town- I can see that it's a drag
Why leave the life I love- here in the great state of Maine
Just to ride that shinin' rail, just to size that ball and chain?
Oh, I gotta' spend just a little more time with you yeah yeah- that's why
Gotta' spend just a little more time with you my girl- oh oh oh
Gotta' spend just a little more time with you baby- yes I do, yes I do
Gotta' spend just a little bit more time with you- yeah yeah
Oh, oh, oh
Passed on the cocaine, said bye-bye to my methadone
Put down the bottle for one more day- backin' off of my tobacco jones
Still I feel like a hopeless junkie- like a man who can't say no
I look back, and there's that monkey- rascal won't let go- let me go
Gotta' spend just a little more time with you- so help me now
Gotta' spend just a little more time with you my baby- oh oh
Gotta' spend just a little more time with you, yes I do now, yes I do, now baby
Gotta' spend just a little more time with you, yeah now- oh oh oh
(harmonica- Stevie Wonder)
I get high, and I can't come down, I get high just hangin' around
I get high, I go lost and found, I get high, oh I, oh I
Gotta spend just a little bit more time with you baby, I'll be walkin' in the light
Gotta' spend just a little more time with you yeah- oh oh
Gotta' spend just a little more time with you, just a little more time, just a little more time
Gotta' spend just a little bit more time with you yeah yeah- oh oh....
Gotta' spend just a little more time with you yeah yeah- hoo
Man it was such a good day when I ran across Hourglass then October Road! My life was full... so glad he asked for a little more time..
My Brother,Ricky Brown,could play that harmonic,just like Stevie Wonder,in the back round of this music,back in the day when i was a little girl,rest in peace......BROTHER,..,yr still.a legend in my book 😎💜💔💖❤
FOREVER.........
Looks like he's wearing Pharrell's hat XD
lol, twenty years before Pharrell did.
My two most favourite artists in one song ...... what more to ask .... love it JTs lyrics and Stevelands distinctive harmonica ....
I ALWAYS been a big fan of James Taylor when I was a kid. I remember when he was featured on Sesame Street a few times. This song brings me back to my late school days. It was released in 1997. Plus one fact, the harmonica in the background was done by Stevie Wonder.
This entire album is top notch!! Yet this song really speaks to our more human side.
One of my personal favorites from JT's "Hourglass" album. Stevie Wonder's AMAZING harmonica solo & the irresistible chorus are what REALLY make this one stand out for me!!!!!
Classic right here mane
