Big Easy (Euro Version) lyrics

by

JAY-Z


[Spoken Intro]
Hey, what's up now?
I want everybody to get involved
Get into this
This song is about the Katrina victims in New Orleans
I like to call it "The Big Easy"
I perform this song a lot in my show
We have a real good time
So if you don't mind
Take your mind and get into it
Clap your hands, that's what they would do
That's how they celebrate in "The Big Easy"

[Verse 1]
Somebody tell me what's going wrong
I ain't seen my baby in far too long (Far too long)
Somebody please tell me what's going wrong
They say them levees broke and my baby's gone
It's been a couple of days, and real dark nights
I miss my only child
I ain't seen her since that night
She left home about eight
And never to return
Our body's floatin'
Floatin' into that river
[Chorus]
I gotta know what's going wrong
I ain't seen my baby in far too long
Somebody please tell me what's going wrong
They say them levees broke and my baby's gone
(And my baby's gone)
Listen here

[Verse 2]
I've been searching all around
Day and day and night
(Day and night, day and night)
Somebody please tell me
I need to feel some light
So many souls crying
How could this be?
Every step I take
I can't help, but oh Lord, please rescue me

[Chorus]
Somebody tell me what's going wrong
(What's going wrong)
I ain't seen my baby in far too long
(In far too long)
Somebody please tell me what's going wrong
(What's going wrong)
They say them levees broke and my baby's gone
(And my baby's gone)
Please somebody tell me what's going wrong
(What's going wrong)
I ain't seen my baby in far too long
(In far too long)
Somebody please tell me what's going wrong
They say them levees broke and my baby's gone
(And my baby's gone)
[Outro]
Please somebody tell me
(Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo)
Yeah-ah
(Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo)
Please somebody tell me
(Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo)
Yeah-ah

Please somebody tell me
(Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo)
Please somebody tell me
(Somebody tell me, tell me, tell me)
Just tell me
Please somebody tell me
(Somebody tell me, tell me, tell me)
Just tell me
(Somebody tell me, tell me)
Please somebody tell me
(Somebody tell me, tell me, tell me)
Come on and tell me
(Please, somebody tell me, tell me)
Please somebody tell me
(Somebody tell me, tell me, tell me)

Somebody tell me
(Somebody tell me, tell me, tell me)
Oh my God
(Please, somebody tell me, tell me)
So many people died that day
(Somebody tell me, tell me, tell me)
Died that day
(Please, somebody tell me, tell me)
So many people
(Somebody tell me, tell me, tell me)
Died that night
(Please, somebody tell me, tell me)
So many people
(Somebody tell me, tell me, tell me)
Are so confused
(Please, somebody tell me, tell me)
They didn't know which way to run
(Somebody tell me, tell me, tell me)
Or what to do
(Please, somebody tell me, tell me)
But on the other side
Help is on the way
They see light that would get them through the day
Somebody tell me, oh my God
Somebody tell me, oh my my
I'm thinkin', play for the people
I'm thinkin', play it for Juanita Mack
I'm thinkin', play for the people
Somebody tell me, oh my
Somebody tell me, tell me
