Lyrics
My cinnamon girl My cinnamon girl I wanna to live with a cinnamon girl I could be happy the rest of my life A dreamer of pictures I run in the night You see us together chase the moonlight My cinnamon girl My cinnamon girl Ten silver saxes, a bass with a bow The drummer relaxes and waits between shows Dreamer was right A dreamer of pictures I run in the night You see us together, chase the moonlight Alright My cinnamon girl My cinnamon girl Pa sent me money now I'm gonna make it somehow I need another chance You see your baby loves to dance Yeah...yeah...yeah Dreamer is right Allright Yes! My cinnamon girl My cinnamon girl
