Johnny Tillotson

Johnny Tillotson (born April 20, 1939 in Jacksonville, Florida) is an American singer and songwriter. He enjoyed his greatest success in the early 1960s, when he scored 9 top-ten hits on the pop, country and adult contemporary billboard charts including "Poetry In Motion" and the self-penned "It Keeps Right On A-Hurtin'". He also sang "Yellow Bird", an adaptation of the Haitian song. Johnny's version is quoted as being a favorite of the former head of the Supreme Court of the United Kingdom, because he and his wife had enjoyed it during their honeymoon. (BBC Interview) more »

I've always had the upper hand where our love was concerned
But now you've upped and left me and I think it's time you learn
If you're not back here in my arms by the time I'll count to ten
Well I'll wait just a little while then I'll count again

When you were mine I had you like a puppet on a string
So now you'd better listen cause I'll tell you one more thing
If you're lips aren't next to mine by the time I'll count to ten
Well I'll wait just a little while then I'll count again

I'll count the lonely hours and days that I was blind
I'll count the things I'll do to make you change your mind
I'll give you love and kindness and I'll buy you presents too
I'll try so hard to always make you happy when you're blue
So if you're not back here in my arms by the time I'll count to ten
Well I'll wait just a little while then I'll count again
Yes I'll wait just a little while then I'll count again
