In Your Corner - Stevie Wonder

I hear tell there’s big fun tonight

On the corner of Main and Dog-Meat-Bite

Friday midnights would not be right

Without Redd’s hot party and a nasty fight 

But I’ll be in your corner

I’ll be in your corner, if they do

I’ll be in your corner

I’ll be in your corner, if they do 

You can’t renege cause it’s going to be alive

Fine women, lots of liquor and stuff for your mind

Now where we’re going they don’t like your kind

But they’ll cool out when you tell them you’re a friend of mine 

‘Cause I’ll be in your corner

I’ll be in your corner, if they do

I’ll be in your corner

I’ll be in your corner, if they do 

You can’t tell your pa and mama

Where we’re going going till after we’ve been there

‘Cause that might make their poor heads worry

And worrying can cause grey hair

And one thing might lead to another

And if there’e any trouble they’ll blame it on me 

I think we just might have two to go

The pretty looking over here from the middle of the floor

We’ll make a b-line to Hotel La Sin

Where you’ll do the talking to get us in 

And I’ll be in your corner

I’ll be in your corner, if they do 

We shoulda been long gone ’cause this place is hot

‘Cause in the corner there are two brothers that are undercover cops

If they stop us for questionning mum is the word

‘Cause a question not answered is an answer not heard 

And I’ll be in your corner

I’ll be in your corner, if they do

I’ll be in your corner

I’ll be in your corner, if they do 

You can’t tell your pa and mama

Where we’re going going till after we’ve been there

‘Cause that might make their poor heads worry

And worrying can cause grey hair

And one thing might lead to another

And if there’s any trouble they’ll blame it on me
