You've Got A Cushion To Fall On - Carla Thomas

Good evening, dear

Do you feel okay?

How are things on the job today?

Sit right down, and kick off your shoes

Supper will be ready in a minute or two

I can tell your promotion didn’t go through

And I can see it’s got you feeling sad and blue

Oh, but maybe next year

It’ll come around

Now, don’t feel bad

Because you’ve been let down, because

You’ve got a cushion to fall on

You’ve got a cushion to fall on

You’ve got me

You’ve got me, I’m in your corner

Oh, come on now, let me see you smile

Looking down, really ain’t your style

Now, how’s about a nice evening kiss

Things can’t be as bad as this

I know you built your hopes up high

And you got shot down like a bird in the sky

But I’m here to catch you, boy

Every time you fall

To put you back on your feet

In no time at all, because

You’ve got a cushion to fall on

You’ve got a cushion to fall on

You’ve got me

You’ve got me, I’m in your corner

I’m here to catch you, boy

Every time you fall

To put you back on your feet

In no time at all, because

You’ve got a cushion to fall on

You’ve got a cushion to fall on

Hey, you’ve got a cushion to fall on

When your world is sad and blue

Don’t you worry, 'cause I know what to do for you

Oh yeah

You’ve got, said you’ve got a cushion to fall on

Oh baby, oh baby, oh baby, don’t have to worry no more

Said I’ll always understand

Don’t you worry, you’ll always be my man

Hey, you’ve got a cushion to fall on

I’ll be your cushion, your cushion, any time
