Eli's Coming

Three Dog Night

Eli's comin'

Eli's comin' (Eli's a-comin')

Well you better hide your heart, your loving heart

Eli's a-comin' and the cards say... a broken heart



Eli's comin', hide your heart, girl

Eli's comin', hide your heart, girl

Girl, Eli's a-comin', you better hide

Girl, Eli's a-comin', you better hide

Girl, Eli's a-comin', you better hide

Girl, Eli's comin', hide your heart, girl (hide it)

You better, better hide your heart

Eli's comin', better walk



Walk but you'll never get away

No, you'll never get away

From the burnin' a-heartache

I walked to Apollo by the bay

Everywhere I go though,

Eli's a-comin' (she walked but she never got away)

Eli's a-comin' (she walked but she never got away)

Eli's a-comin' and he's comin' to git ya

(she walked but... she walked but...)

Get down on your knees

(she walked but she never got away)



Eli's comin' (hide it, hide it, hide it)

Girl, Eli's a-comin', you better hide

Girl, Eli's a-comin', you better hide

Girl, Eli's a-comin', you better hide

Girl, Eli's comin', hide your heart, girl

(hide it)

You better, better hide your heart

Eli's comin', better walk



Walk but you'll never get away

No, you'll never get away from the burnin' a-heartache

I walked to Apollo by the bay

Everywhere I go though, Eli's a-comin'

(she walked but she'll never getaway)

Eli's a-comin' (she walked but she'll never get away)

Eli's a-comin' and he's comin' to git ya

(she walked but... she walked but...)

Get down on your knees

(she walked but she'll never get away)

Get down on your knees



No-no, no-no
