Jennifer Hudson - Golden Slumbers / Carry That Weight Lyrics






Once there was a way, to get back homeward
Once there was a way, to get back home
Sleep pretty darling do not cry
And I will sing a lullaby

Golden slumbers fill your eyes
Smiles awake you when you rise
Sleep pretty darling do not cry
And I will sing a lullaby

Once there was a way, to get back homeward
Once there was a way, to get back home
Sleep pretty darling do not cry
And I will sing a lullaby

(Boy you're gonna carry that weight) oh...
(Carry that weight for a long time) oh...
(Boy you're gonna carry that weight) boy you're gonna carry that weight
(Carry that weight for a long time) carry that weight for a long time

I never give you my pillow
I only send you my invitations
And in the middle of the celebrations
I break, I break, I break down

(Boy you're gonna carry that weight) oh boy... you're gonna carry
I'm gonna carry that weight
(Carry that weight for a long time) carry that weight... a long time
(Boy you're gonna carry that weight) boy...
(Boy you're gonna carry that weight) carry that weight
Carry that weight for a long time

Once there was a way, to get back homeward
Once there was a way, to get back home
And I will sing a lullaby

    Once there was a way,
    to get back homeward,
    Once there was a way,
    to get back home
    Sleep pretty darling do not cry,
    and I will sing a lullaby

    Golden slumbers fill your eyes,
    smiles awake you when you rise
    Sleep pretty darling do not cry,
    and I will sing a lullaby

    Once there was a way,
    to get back homeward,
    Once there was a way,
    to get back home
    Sleep pretty darling do not cry,
    and I will sing a lullaby

    Boy you're gonna carry that weight,
    carry that weight for a long time
    Boy you're gonna carry that weight,
    carry that weight for a long time

    I never give you my pillow,
    I only send you my invitations
    And in the middle of the celebrations,
    I break down

    Boy you're gonna carry that weight,
    carry that weight for a long time
    Boy you're gonna carry that weight,
    carry that weight for a long time

    Oh yeah, all right,

    shrill in some places and then overwhelming in others. but that is the nature of the beast when any artist attempts to add their own flavor into a classic. you either love it or not....or end up thinking 'meh'

    Golden slumbers fill your eyes,
    smiles awake you when you rise
    Sleep pretty darling do not cry,
    and I will sing a lullaby
    Once there was a way,
    to get back homeward,

    carry that weight for a long time
    Boy you're gonna carry that weight,
    carry that weight for a long time
    I never give you my pillow,
    I only send you my invitations
    And in the middle of the celebrations,
    I break down
    Boy you're gonna carry that weight,
    carry that weight for a long time
    Boy you're gonna carry that weight,
    carry that weight for a long time
    Oh yeah, all right,
    are you gonna be in my dreams tonight?

    Primeira parte da musica: "Nossa to chorando de emoção!!!!! Isso é uma obra prima!!!! Melhor musica!"

    Terceira parte: " Voltou, graças a Deus, o come back!!to chorando de emoção!!!"

  75. B.... R....

    I am literally dying because of a severe lung failure. Until I listened to this song and God brought me back to life!

  76. W.... B....

    "Boy you're going to carry that weight!
    She absolutely crushed this song.

  77. W.... B....

    "Boy you're going to carry that weight!

  80. R.... y....

  81. T.... 2....

    I met the love of my life a few yrs ago. She had a beautiful little baby girl. They didn't have a husband/father. I had even less. And I fell in love with both of them instantly. They both loved this movie, and the soundtrack. They're both gone now. I don't know why I still listen

  82. B.... S....

    Better than the original BY FAR

    B.... S....

    You got to be kidding me

    B.... S....

    Nope, not at all

  83. T.... H....

    Kudos to Paul McCartney for providing the pallet for this beautiful vocal

  84. A.... W....

    Nobody can make a good cover of a beatles song!! Like it makes zero sense...😂😂

  85. n.... f....

    God if I had her voice I would never shut up

  86. Z.... ....

    I wanna sing along but her voice makes me wanna stop and listen 😭❤

  87. S.... U....

    this is the reason why nana noodleman still alive

  88. /.... �....

    *I will never stop singing*

  89. L.... P....

    Hermoso.

  90. J.... C....

    Tell me why she sings better than the " queen bee " she gave me chills down my spine from the beginning to the end. The " queen bee"" never has

  91. M.... P....

    I love this song! And I love sing! My 2 year old son watches it about twice a day when he gets the notion! He said one day, “Mama...I want to be a singer!” Can’t wait till Christmas 2020 when Sing 2 arrives! 😘❤️

  92. A.... A....
