Embed: I said, "Where you goin? I'm just born"
She said, "I'll only be gone for a while"
My mother loved to leave in style
That's why God made the movies

Well, I laid around in my swaddling clothes
Until the doctor came and turned out the lights
Then I packed my bag
And my name tag
I stole away into the night
Hoping things would work out right

That's why God made the movies

Say you will, say you will
Say you'll take me to your lovin' breast
Say you'll nourish me
With your tenderness
The way the ladies sometimes do
Say you won't, say you won't!
Say you won't leave me for no other man
Say you'll love me just the way I am
Say you will, baby, now

Say you will, just say you will
Say you will


When I was born, my mother died
She said, "Bye-bye, baby, bye-bye"
And since that day
I've made my way
The notorious boy of the wild
Adopted by the wolves when he was a child
That's why God. That's why God.

That's Why God Made the Movies Lyrics

When I was born, my mother died
She said, "Bye-bye, baby, bye-bye"
I said, "Where you goin? I'm just born"
She said, "I'll only be gone for a while"
My mother loved to leave in style
That's why God made the movies

Well, I laid around in my swaddling clothes
Until the doctor came and turned out the lights
Then I packed my bag
And my name tag
I stole away into the night
Hoping things would work out right

That's why God made the movies

Say you will, say you will
Say you'll take me to your lovin' breast
Say you'll nourish me
With your tenderness
The way the ladies sometimes do
Say you won't, say you won't!
Say you won't leave me for no other man
Say you'll love me just the way I am
Say you will, baby, now

Say you will, just say you will
Say you will


When I was born, my mother died
She said, "Bye-bye, baby, bye-bye"
And since that day
I've made my way
The notorious boy of the wild
Adopted by the wolves when he was a child
That's why God. That's why God.
That's why God made the movies

Paul Frederic Simon (born October 13, 1941 in Newark, New Jersey) is an American singer, songwriter and guitarist. He first gained world-wide recognition as the writing talent behind the popular American folk-rock duo Simon & Garfunkel formed with fellow musician Art Garfunkel. When Simon & Garfunkel split in 1970, Simon quickly began his solo career with the release of the self-titled album, Paul Simon. This was followed by There Goes Rhymin' Simon and Still Crazy After All These Years, both of which featured chart-topping hits such as Loves Me Like A Rock and Kodachrome. In 1986 Simon released the immensely popular Graceland, which featured the groundbreaking use of African rhythms and performers Ladysmith Black Mambazo. In 1990, he followed up Graceland with the successor album The Rhythm of the Saints which featured Brazilian and Cajun musical themes. These albums helped to popularize world music as a genre.

He co-wrote the unsuccessful, but critically-acclaimed musical The Capeman with Nobel-winning poet Derek Walcott in 1997.

Paul Simon still tours occasionally, both as a solo artist and with his old musical partner Art Garfunkel. He is married to Edie Brickell.

In 1994 Paul Simon held 14 sold out concerts in Nantes (France) with International professional fusion players: Nino Manore (Italy), Francis Mc Gowan (UK), Gissele Masarde (France), Nikša Sviličić (Croatia), and others.
