[ # ] Lionel Richie wrote Lady in the bathroom
April 5th, 2012 under Jimmy Kimmel, Kenny Rogers, Lionel Richie


Lionel Richie was on Jimmy Kimmel Live yesterday to promote his #1 country album Tuskegee and he told the ABC late host a story about a song he wrote for one of the biggest country music stars of all time. Richie teamed with Kenny Rogers to write two songs for him and one of the songs he pitched to the bearded singer was Lady. When he pitched it, he had only a few lines ready and said if he liked it he would finish it. When the two met to record, he had another song ready and thought that would suffice. Well The Gambler wasn’t playing and was ready the complete version of Lady. Only problem is that the Commodore had only written the first verse. Well push came to shove and he ran to the bathroom and dinished one of the most romantic love songs in music history. I guess you can say not everything that comes out of the bathroom is sh!1tty.
If you want to see if the lyrics sound like something that were written over a toilet, then

Lady, I’m your knight in shining armor and I love you
You have made me what I am and I’m yours
My love, there’s so many ways I want to say I love you
Let me hold you in my arms forever more

You have gone and made me such a fool
I’m so lost in your love
And oh, we belong together
Won’t you believe in my song?

Lady, for so many years I thought I’d never find you
You have come into my life and, made me whole
Forever let me wake to see you each and every morning
Let me hear you whisper softly in my ear

In my eyes I see no one else but you
There’s no other love like our love
Oh yes, I’ll always want you near me
I’ve waited for you for so long

Oh, Lady, your love’s the only love I need
And beside me is where I want you to be
’cause,’cos, my love, my love, there’s somethin’ I want you to know
You’re the love of my life, of my life, you’re my lady
You’re my lady
