(Cropper/Pickett/Floyd)
Got to have your love night and day
Not just a part but all your heart
Ninety-nine and a half
Just won't do
Yeah, it just won't do
I've got a half of real love and affection
Though we live, though we live in the wrong direction
Ninety-nine and a half just won't do
Yeah, it just won't do
We got to bring it on down now
- Harmonica Solo -
I've got a half of real love and affection
Though we live, though we live in the wrong direction
Ninety-nine and a half just won't do, yeah
It just won't do
Got to have 100
Got to have 100...

She's got a fine lookin' figure
When she's walkin' down the street
She gives a quick 'See you later'
To all the guys she meets
I wanna hear her moan when I get her alone
When the action starts she says 'I got to go home'
She's a wind up, wind up
She's a wind up, wind up
She's a wind up, wind up
For I'd say okay but they don't mean what they say
She wears the low-cut dresses
And a high-heeled shoes
She was born to make it
I was born to lose
She makes the blackout sounds till the light goes down
And when I make a move she ain't nowhere around
She's a wind up, wind up
She's a wind up, wind up
She's a wind up, wind up
For I'd say okay but they don't mean what they say
Fine lookin' figure
Oh when she's walkin' down the street
She gives a quick 'See you later'
To all the guys she meets
I wanna hear her moan when I get her alone
When the action starts she says 'I got to go home'
She's a wind up, wind up
She's a wind up, wind up
She's a wind up, wind up
For I'd say okay but they don't mean what they say
She's a wind up, wind up
She's a wind up, wind up...

Sitting in a downtown discotheque
Saw a cute little girl that stole my breath away
Line of guys that had the eyes on her
To my surprise she said 'i beg you sir'
I stay
I thought I had it made
Sat at a table for a couple of drinks
Moving closer and she kissed my neck
That's when I knew that I was in with a chance
Records were a playing and she asked for a dance
They played
I thought I had it made
- guitar break -
We were a swinging to the moody blues
Looked into my eyes I thought I blew a fuse
Music stopped playing the lights went out
Dropped my drink when I heard them shout
It's a raid
I thought I had it made
Hey everybody take a look at me
Didn't come to until a quarter past three
Got no money couldn't put up the bail
Judge said 'son, I'm gonna keep you in jail.'
I stay
I thought I had it made
Thought I had it
I thought I had it made

People tell me about bad breaks
Business is bad and the loss they've made
Don't give me your mistakes
That's one line I can't take
Man I don't wanna know
Seen the look in a young girls eye
Her needs to love but bye and bye
She'd drag me down if she could
And I know that ain't no good
Girl I don't wanna know
- guitar break -
Work for money and not for fun
It don't bother me if the job ain't done
I don't care what the boss may say
Do my job, get my pay
Man I don't wanna know

We used have our time together.
We used to party with each other.
Now you stall when I call.
Dont wanna know when I say go.
And when I see you on the street
Listen to me little creep, ......that's it, I quit.
You used to look just like a queen,
Kinda soft, kinda mean.
Now you jst look dirty.
Say you're twenty but you're thirty.
Wearing a diamond ring
where did you get that thing,......that's it, I quit.
[SOLO] 12 bars
[Bridge]
When I call you at home
at your personal phone .....number.
dont get in a rage when I hear its engaged.
I just wanna know who you are lying under,
its a rap...
Dont want to see you anymore.
Aint gonna walk in any trap.
Like I told you once before.
You think you're so flash,
The way you get your cash, ......that's it, I quit.

Looking for a good time
Wanna see the town
Cos I'm the man
If money talks
I wanna hear it sing
If you got the readies
Then I'll swing
As long as the price is right
As long as the price is right
As long as the price is right
If you got no bread you're as good as dead
Back room card game
Ace in the hole
There's big money rockin'
And I bet my soul
I've seen the movie
And I've read the book
And I don't need
No second look
As long as the price is right
As long as the price is right
As long as the price is right
If you got no loot then you just can't shoot
If you got no loot then you just can't shoot
Looking for a good time
Hotel queen
Took her up to your room
The boys go green
She ask you for a hand
With the zip on her dress
And you say 'Oui babe'
Cos that's french for yes
As long as the price is right
As long as the price is right
As long as the price is right
Well if you got no cash then I gotta dash
If you got no cash then I gotta dash
If you got no cash then I gotta dash

(Corthon)
Got lots of money
Got lots of phony friends
I can drink lots of whiskey
I can drink lots of gin
I know every guy in this town
When my money runs out
I won't have these friends around
I drove to the Boogaloo Club
I walked right on in
Everybody knows me
By the money that I spend
Well I finally realized
That these buddies tell lies
In fact they're no good friends
Money makes some folks frown
Money makes some folks steal
Money gets some folks hurt
Money gets some folks killed
I don't trust nobody
Not even my buddy, buddy friends
I know they'll stab me in the back
Took away my baby's ring
Well I finally realized
That these buddies tell lies
In fact they're no good friends
Money makes some folks frown
Money makes some folks steal
Money gets some folks hurt
Money gets some folks killed
I don't trust nobody
Not even my buddy, buddy friends
I know they'll shoot me in the back
Just took away my baby's ring
Well I finally realized
That these buddies tell lies
In fact they're no good friends
Oh I finally realized
That these buddies tell lies
In fact they're no good friends

Baby Jane, what a fool I've been
I let you go, I cast my fate to the four winds
Baby Jane, can you forgive me now
And take away this heart of pain
That I'm living girl
All that good sweet loving
I guess you forgot
All that good sweet hugging
When I lost you I sure lost a lot
RIFF
Baby Jane, what a fool I've been
I let you go, I cast my fate to the four winds
RIFF
Baby Jane, what a fool I've been
I let you go, I cast my fate to the four winds
All the things that I paid
For running around
I guess you know by now
I'll never never never never let you down
RIFF
Baby Jane, what a fool I've been
I let you go, I cast my fate to the four winds
Baby Jane, Baby Jane, Baby Jane, Baby Jane, come on now...
Baby Jane

As I was walking down the street
A pretty girl did I meet
She's looking all so sweet
Got a major from her head to her feet
I was looking back to see
If she was looking back to see
If I was looking back at her
She glowed with such a beautiful smile
She must have been a beautiful child
Man she was all so neat
A major from her head to her feet
I was looking back to see
If she was looking back to see
If I was looking back at her
- Guitar Solo -
Her hair was curly shining bright
Her shoes in black were just delight
She wore the very best of clothes
And also black and nylon hose
I was looking back to see
If she was looking back to see
If I was looking back at her
As I was walking down the street
A pretty girl did I meet
She was looking all so sweet
Got a major from her head to her feet
I was looking back
She was looking back
I was looking back at her
I was looking back to see
If she was looking back to see
If I was looking back at her

All I want is just a little time
To make your sweet love mine
Please put all you've got in it
'cause all I want all I want is sixty minutes
Sixty minutes of your time
If I can't be your full time lover man
Honey do the best you can
Ask and you just might get it
All I want is sixty minutes
Well gimme five, ten, fifteen, twenty
Don't stop now, I haven't had a minute
Twenty-five, thirty, thirty-five, forty
Gonna tell your mama 'crazy 'bout her daughter'
Forty-five, fifty, fifty-five, sixty
Sixty minutes of your love
If I can't be your full time lover man
Honey do the best you can
Ask and you just might get it
Baby all I want is sixty minutes
Well gimme five, ten, fifteen, twenty
Don't stop now, I haven't had a minute
Twenty-five, thirty, thirty-five, forty
Gonna tell your mama 'crazy 'bout her daughter'
