Al Green - Be With Me Jesus Lyrics

Verse 1
Sit right down and talk to me
About how you want to be
You ought to be with me
Yeah, you ought to be with me

Verse 2
Thinking about what people do
Talking about how I love you
Thinking there's nothing to what they say
You're going to be with me, anyway

Verse 3
They don't want to see us do
All of the things we want to
You ought to be with me
Hey, you ought to be with me

Verse 4
You don't have to waste my time
If you want to be a friend of mine
You can leave me now and walk away
And turn your back for another day

Oh babe, yeah, yeah

Verse 5
Say you ought to be the kind of girl
That can brighten this old world
And it's hard to see why you and me
Can't be together happily

Verse 6
I'm trying to realize
You being with some other guy
I don't know the reason why
You ought to be with me until I die

You ought to be with me until I die

Verse 7
I don't want to waste my time
If you want to be a friend of mine
I want to hold you tight, love you right
Put good feelin' in your night
