Gumboots Lyrics


I was having this discussion
In a taxi heading downtown
Rearranging my position
On this friend of mine who had a little bit of a breakdownI said, hey, no breakdowns come
And breakdowns go
So what are you going to do about it
That's what I'd like to knowYou don't feel you could love me
But I feel you couldWas in the early morning hours
When I fell into a phone call
Believing I had supernatural powers
I slammed into a brick wallI said, hey, is this my problem?
Is this my fault?
If that's the way it's gonna be
I'm gonna call the whole thing to a haltYou don't feel you could love me
But I feel you couldYou don't feel you can love me
But I feel you couldI was walking down the street
When I thought I heard this voice say
Say, ain't we walking down the same street together

On the very same dayAnd I said, hey Senorita, that's astute
I said, why don't we get together
And call ourselves an instituteYou don't feel you could love me
But I feel you couldYou don't feel you can love me
But I feel you couldI was having this discussion
In a taxi heading downtown

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Paul Frederic Simon (born October 13, 1941 in Newark, New Jersey) is an American singer, songwriter and guitarist. He first gained world-wide recognition as the writing talent behind the popular American folk-rock duo Simon & Garfunkel formed with fellow musician Art Garfunkel. When Simon & Garfunkel split in 1970, Simon quickly began his solo career with the release of the self-titled album, Paul Simon. This was followed by There Goes Rhymin' Simon and Still Crazy After All These Years, both of which featured chart-topping hits such as Loves Me Like A Rock and Kodachrome. In 1986 Simon released the immensely popular Graceland, which featured the groundbreaking use of African rhythms and performers Ladysmith Black Mambazo. In 1990, he followed up Graceland with the successor album The Rhythm of the Saints which featured Brazilian and Cajun musical themes. These albums helped to popularize world music as a genre.

He co-wrote the unsuccessful, but critically-acclaimed musical The Capeman with Nobel-winning poet Derek Walcott in 1997. His most recent album, Surprise, was produced by Brian Eno.

Paul Simon still tours occasionally, both as a solo artist and with his old musical partner Art Garfunkel. He is married to Edie Brickell.

In 1994 Paul Simon held 14 sold out concerts in Nantes (France) with International professional fusion players: Nino Manore (Italy), Francis Mc Gowan (UK), Gissele Masarde (France), Nikša Sviličić (Croatia), and others.
