Tina Turner
"Tina's Wish"
(Ike Turner & Tina Turner)
[Previously recorded by Ike & Tina as "Tina's Prayer"]
I'm talking to the priest
The high priest
And everybody out there in the universe
If what I'm saying is wrong
Then tell me the right way to say it
Cause I wanna be made over
Paint me red, paint me green
Give me liberty, wash me clean
Make me over, make me nice
Cause when I'm done, Lord, I wanna be right
Hey Lord
Make me over, I wanna be made over
Hey Lord
Make me over, I wanna be made over
LyricsMake me smart, make me king
Give a lot, give me steam
I want eternal beauty, spiritual things
Cause when I'm done, yes I wanna be a good thing
Hey Lord
Make me over, I wanna be made over
Hey Lord
Make me over, I wanna be made over
I wanna go places, I wanna do some things
I wanna be a star, I wanna have a big name
But in my heart, let beauty reign
And when I'm done, I wanna have fame
Lord make me nice, Lord make me good
Give me power, give me love
I wanna be desirable, voluptuous, tenderized
