Alonzo - Al Jarreau

And when I think of Alonzo-

He was king around the bay

He’d come sporting and flashing

Hearts would drift away

Could be-he had a dream-

Came upon the scene where the

Lamb and lion play

How could he start to school her

Or rule her with feet of sand and clay

Alonzo declared that he must

«Reach to heaven-for heaven»

Alonzo declared that he must

«Reach to heaven-for heaven»

(2 more times)

(Repeat from «Could»…to end of chorus)

Don’t you know Alonzo put

Out his hand one day

Don’t you know Alonzo

Lifted up his head to pray

So good for you, my dear Alonzo (x4)

Warm your heart

So warm the sun

Warm your soul

Welcome, Alonzo

So good to see you

Welcome, Alonzo
