It brings big tears into my eyes,
When I began, When I began to realize,
That cried so long,
Since you've been gone,
I guess I'm drowning drowning in my own tears,
I been crying Just like a child
These tears of mine, these tears are runnin' wild
And if you don't think, If you don't think that you'll be home soon
Baby I'm going to drown, Oh yeah, in my own tears

Here without you (You)
I get so lonely and I sure got blue (Blue)
Yes I do
It seems to keeps raining (raining) raining and raining
More and more (More and more)
without you baby
I sure get lonely and I get so blue
You know for a time I look around it's raining
More and more More and more More and more
Why can't you, (You) Why can't you
Why can't you Come on home (you Come on home)
because I don't want to be
I don't want to Be here all alone
Listen, If you don't think (If you don't think)
If you don't think that you're coming home soon
You got me (think)
I believe I'm going to drown this morning (drown)
I tell you that I'm going to drown this evening (drown)
I guess that I'll
(drown in my own tears)
Ooh, don't lettum' let me, don't lettum' let me,
don't lettum' let me,
don't lettum' let me, don't lettum' let me (drown)
drown in my own tears (drown)
Im going to drown yeah in my own tears (tears) (tears) (tears) My tears (tears)
Oh, don't let them do it
don't let them do it
don't let them do it
Drown in my own tears

You're a no good heart breaker
You're a liar and you're a cheat
And I don't know why
I let you do these things to me
My friends keep telling me
That you ain't no good
But oh, they don't know
That I'd leave you if I could

I guess I'm uptight
And I'm stuck like glue
Cause I ain't never
I ain't never, I ain't never, no, no (loved a man)
(The way that I, I love you)

Some time ago I thought
You had run out of fools
But I was so wrong
You got one that you'll never lose
The way you treat me is a shame
How could ya hurt me so bad
Baby, you know that I'm the best thing
That you ever had
Kiss me once again

Don'cha never, never say that we we're through
Cause I ain't never
Never, Never, no, no (loved a man)
(The way that I, I love you)

I can't sleep at night
And I can't even fight
I guess I'll never be free
Since you got, your hooks, in me

Whoa, oh, oh
Yeah! Yeah!
I ain't never loved a man
I ain't never loved a man, baby
Ain't never had a man hurt me so bad

No
Well this is what I'm gonna do about it

Only you can hear my soul serenade

I want to be free to fly away and sing to the world
About my soul serenade, my soul serenade
When you're not around there's a lonely sound
In my soul serenade, in my soul serenade

Everyone but you adores me
But do you know pretty soon they bore me
Let me tell you right now that they bore me
They bore me with their pretty little words
Those pretty little words of devotion

But oh, let me tell you right now
My message to 'em this evening
Is they can jump in anybody's ocean
Because only you hear my soul
My soul serenade, my soul serenade
Oh, my soul serenade, my soul serenade

If I lose this dream
I don't know what I'm gonna do
If I lose this dream
I'm dreaming about for me and you

If it goes away
I might as well hang it up
'Cause I don't know
If I have the heart or mind
To make it true
Or help it grow
And I only know, I only know, I only know

If I lose this dream
It's goodbye love and happiness, yes
You're the one I need
I don't want a love
That's second best
There've been all of my life
I wanted to do
That made me blue

Help me hold onto this dream
For sometimes dreams often come true
And they all come true, they all come true
For me and you
Wait a minute baby

Don't let me lose this dream
Baby, baby hold on
Don't let me lose my dream, no
Baby, baby be strong

You say that a-you believe that what I say is true
And that I'm the one and only girl for you
Just tell me
That no matter what the people say
You're in my corner all the way
And I won't lose this dream
Baby, baby hold on
Don't let me lose my dream, no
Baby, baby be strong

Don't let me lose this dream
Baby, baby hold on
Don't let me lose, lose my dream
Baby, baby hold on
Don't let me, ooh baby

Baby, baby, baby, this is just to say
How much I'm gonna miss you,
But believe, while I'm away,
That I didn't mean to hurt you;
Don't you know that I'd rather hurt myself?
(I'd hurt myself, I'd hurt myself...)

Baby, baby, baby (baby), think of me sometimes (baby);
Because if loving you was so wrong (baby), then I'm guilty of this crime...
(Guilty, I'm guilty, I'm guilty...)
I'm bewildered, I'm lonely, and I'm loveless,
Without you to hold my hand (Reach out for me, boy...);
If you'd just understand... (Reach out to me, right now...)

Those that we love, we foolishly make cry,
Then sometimes feel it's best to say goodbye, goodbye...
But what's inside can't be denied;
The power (power of love), the power of love (power of love) is my only guide,
Baby (oh), baby (oh)...
Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, this is just to say
Just how much I'm really gonna miss you,
But believe, while I'm away,
(I need you, I need you, I need you, I need you, I need you...)
That I really didn't mean, I didn't mean, I didn't mean to hurt you;
Don't you know that, that I'd rather hurt myself? (I'd hurt myself...)

Baby, I need you, I need you, I need you (I need you, I need you, I need you...)
If I did you wrong, if I did you wrong... (I'd hurt myself...)
I need you, I need you, I need you (I need you, I need you, I need you...)
If I did you wrong... (I'd hurt myself...)

I don’t want no body
Always sitting around me and my man.
I don’t want no body
Always sitting right there
Looking at me and that man
Be it my mother, my brother, or my sister
Would you believe? I’ll get up, put on some clothes,
Go out and help them find somebody for themselves
If I can. Yes I will.

Now I don’t mind company
Because company’s alright with me every once and a while
Yes it is.
I tell you I don’t mind company
Because company’s alright with me every once in a while, yeah.
But oh, when me and that man get to loving
I tell you girls I dig you, but I just don’t have time
To sit and chit and sit and chit chat and smile.

Don’t send me no doctor
Filling me up with all of those pills
I got me a man named ‘Dr. Feelgood’
And oh, yeah that man takes care of all my pains and my ills.
His name is Dr. Feelgood in the morning.
Taking care of business is really this man’s game.
And after one visit to Dr. Feelgood
You’d understand why Feelgood is his name
Oh yeah, oh good God Almighty the man sure makes me feel real
Goooooooooooooooooooood!!!!!!

Mood

Clear out everybody - two's company, three's a crowd, if you know what I'm saying!

Yeah, come on and let the good times roll
We're gonna stay here till we soothe our souls
If it take all night long

One more time, come on & let the good times roll
We're gonna stay here till we soothe our souls
If it take all night long

Gotta tell you, evenin' sun is sinkin' low
The clock on the wall say it's time to go
I got my plans I don't know about you
I'll tell you exactly what I'm gonna do

Get in the groove and let the good times roll
I'm gonna stay here till I soothe my soul
If it take all night long
Yeah everybody let the good times roll
We're gonna stay here till we soothe our souls
If it take all night long

Yeah, it might be one o'clock and it might be three
Time don't mean that much to me
I've felt this good since I don't know when
And I might not feel this good again

So come on and let the good times roll
We're gonna stay here till we soothe our souls
If it take all night long

And all night (all night) and all night (all night)
And all night (all night) and all night long (all night)
Somebody said it might take all night long
And all night (all night) and all night (all night), so
Come on and let the goot times roll
We're gonna stay here till we soothe our souls
If it take all night long

Take me to heart and I’ll always love you
And nobody can make me do wrong
Take me for granted, leaving love unsure
Makes will power weak and temptation strong

Chorus
A woman’s only human
You should understand
She’s not just a plaything
She’s flesh and blood just like her man
If you want a do-right-all-day woman
You’ve got to be a do-right-all-night man

They say that it’s a man’s world
Well you can improve that by me
And as long as we’re together baby
Show some respect for me

Chorus

Firmness - let's be serious here!

There’s an old friend
That I once heard say
Something that touched my heart
And it began this way

I was born by the river
In a little tent
And just like the river
I’ve been runnin’ ever since
He said it’s been a long time comin’
But I know my change is gonna come
Oh yeah

He said it’s been too hard livin’
But I’m afraid to die
I might not be if I knew
What was up there beyond the sky
It’s been a long, a long time comin’
But I know my change has got to come
Oh yeah

I went, I went to my brother
And I asked him, "Brother
Could you help me, please?"
He said, "Good sister
I’d like to but I’m not able"
And when I, when I looked around
I was right back down
Down on my bended knees
Yes I was, oh

There’ve been times that I thought
I thought that I wouldn’t last for long
But somehow right now I believe
That I’m able, I’m able to carry on
I tell you that it’s been along
And oh it’s been an uphill journey
All the way
But I know, I know, I know
I know my change is gonna come
Sometimes I had to cry all night long
Yes I did
Sometimes I had to give up right
For what I knew was wrong
Yes it’s been an uphill journey
It’s sure’s been a long way comin’
Yes it has
It’s been real hard
Every step of the way
But I believe, I believe
This evenin’ my change is come
Yeah I tell you that
My change is come
