- Spider Web Lyrics / with translationsI dreamed about Ray Charles last night
And he could see just fine
Dreamed about Ray Charles last night
And he could see just fine, you know
I asked him for a lullaby
He said, "Honey, I don't sing no more"
No more, no more
No more, Ray don't sing no more
He said, "Since I got my eyesight back
My voice has just deserted me
No 'Georgia On My Mind' no more
I stay in bed with MTV"
Then Ray took his glasses off
And I could look inside his head
Flashing like a thunderstorm
I saw a shining spider web
Spider web, spider web
Spider web in Ray Charles' head
I dreamed about Ray Charles last night
He took me flying in the air
Showed me my own spider webs
Said, "Honey, you had best take care"
The world is made of spider webs
The threads are stuck to me and you
Be careful what you're wishing for
'Cause when you gain you just might lose"
You just might lose your
Spider web, spider web
Spider web, what Ray Charles said
When you're feelin' lonely
When you're hidin' in your bed
Don't forget your string of pearls
Don't forget your spider web
When I go to sleep tonight
Don't let me dream of brother Ray, no, no, no, don't
Don't get me wrong, I'm glad he sees
Just like him best the other way
Spider web, spider web
Spider web in Ray Charles' head
Oh spider web
Spider web in Ray Charles' head
Spider web
All I got's my spider web
Keepin' me alive
All I got's my spider web
Keepin' me alive
C'mon Ray
