"(1-2-3-4-5-6-7) Count The Days" lyrics - JOSS STONE

[Intro:]
Oh, oh
Boo-boo-boo-boo-boo-boo, yeah
Oh, yeah
Mm, mm, mm, mm
Alright

[Chorus:]
If you don't (Count the days)
Believe I'm leavin' (Count the days)
Just count the days that I'm gone
(1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7)
If you don't (Count the days)
Believe I'm leavin' (Count the days)
Just count the days that I'm gone
(1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7)

I gave you my heart, hmm
You gave me hurt (Gave me hurt)
I gave you my sugar
And all you did was give me dirt (Gave me dirt)
You said that I wouldn't have the nerve
To leave ya (Nerve to leave ya)
And if I did
I'd be the one to grieve ya (Ha)

[Chorus:]
Well, if you don't (Count the days)
Believe I'm leavin' (Count the days)
Just count the days that I'm gone
(1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7)
Go ahead, get your pen and paper
If you don't (Count the days)
Believe that I'm leavin' you (Count the days)
Then count the days that I'm gone
(1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7)

No more tears
I got someone new (I got me someone new)
To do the things
That you refused to do (You refused to do)
You see, a woman needs
Care, love and protection (And protection)
I could never find you
When I needed affection (I needed affection)

[Chorus:]
If you don't (Count the days)
Believe I'm leavin' (Count the days)
Just count the days that I'm gone
(1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7)
I'll be gone for long, boy

[Bridge:]
Oh, you
You won't have the chance
Again
To treat me wrong
It's been a
A long, long time comin'
And I'll be-a
A long, long time gone

[Chorus:]
And if you don't (Count the days)
Believe I'm leavin' (Count the days)
Just count the days that I'm gone
(1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7)
'Cause I'll be gone for a long one
If you don't (Count the days)
Believe that I'm leavin' (Count the days)
Count the days, uh
(1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7)
The days that I'm gone
If you don't
Believe that I'm leavin' you
You better get a pen
You better get some paper and a calculator
If you don't
Believe that I'm leavin' ya
Then you'll be sorely mistaken, boy

[Outro:]
(Count the day's that I'm gone)
Don't wait up on me
(1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7)
(Count the days that I'm gone)
(1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7)
Yeah
Yeah
(Count the days that I'm gone)
(1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7)
If you don't believe I'm leavin' you, you got a shock coming
(Count the days that I'm gone)
(1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7)
If you don't believe I'm almost through, you got a shock, a shock coming, boy
(1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7)
Uh
Oh, oh
(Count the days that I'm gone)
(1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7)
Oh, oh
Oh
(Count the days that I'm gone)
(1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7)
If you don't believe I'm leavin'
If you don't believe I'm not grievin'
(Count the days that I'm gone)
(1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7)
If you don't believe me, boy, then you're, what we call, in denial
(Count the days that I'm gone)
