"Pledging My Love"

"Pledging My Love"



Forever my darling, our love will be true
Always and forever, I'll love only you
Just promise me darling, your love in return
May this fire in my soul dear forever burn

My hearts at your command dear, to keep love and to hold
Making you happy is my desire dear, keeping you is my goal
I'll forever love you for the rest of my days
I'll never part from you and your loving ways

My hearts at your command dear, to keep love and to hold
Making you happy is my desire dear, keeping you is my goal
I'll forever love you for the rest of my days
I'll never part from you and your loving ways

"Rainy Night In Georgia"
(feat. Chris Botti)

"Rainy Night In Georgia"
(feat. Chris Botti)



Hoverin' by my suitcase, tryin' to find a warm place to spend the night
Heavy rain fallin', seems I hear your voice callin' "It's all right."
A rainy night in Georgia, a rainy night in Georgia
It seems like it's rainin' all over the world
I feel like it's rainin' all over the world

Neon signs a-flashin', taxi cabs and buses passin' through the night
A distant moanin' of a train seems to play a sad refrain to the night
A rainy night in Georgia, such a rainy night in Georgia
Lord, I believe it's rainin' all over the world
I feel like it's rainin' all over the world

How many times I wondered
It still comes out the same
No matter how you look at it or think of it
It's life and you just got to play the game

I find me a place in a box car, so I take my guitar to pass some time
Late at night when it's hard to rest I hold your picture to my chest and I feel fine
But it's a rainy night in Georgia, baby, it's a rainy night in Georgia I
Feel it's rainin' all over the world, kinda lonely now And it's rainin' all over the
World

Oh, have you ever been lonely, people?
And you feel that it was rainin' all over this man's world
You're talking 'bout rainin', rainin', rainin', rainin', rainin', rainin', rainin',
Rainin', rainin' rainin', rainin', rainin'

"Respect Yourself"
(feat. Mavis Staples)

"Respect Yourself"
(feat. Mavis Staples)



If you disrespect anybody that you run in to
How in the world do you think anybody's s'posed to respect you
If you don't give a heck 'bout the man with the bible in his hand
Just get out the way, and let the gentleman do his thing
You the kind of gentleman that want everything your way
Take the sheet off your face, boy, it's a brand new day

Respect yourself, respect yourself
If you don't respect yourself
Ain't nobody gonna give a good cahoot, na na na na
Respect yourself, respect yourself

If you're walking 'round think'n that the world owes you something cause
You're here you goin' out the world backwards like you did when you
Put your hand on your mouth when you cough, that'll help the solution
Oh, you cuss around women and you don't even know their names and you
Dumb enough to think that'll make you a big ol man

"Ruby Baby"

"Ruby Baby"



I have a girl and Ruby is her name
She don’t look at me but I love her just the same.

Ruby, ruby, how I want you,
Like a ghost I’m gonna haunt you
Ruby, Ruby, when will you be mine?

The next time I’ll see you
Give you my whole cries.
I’m gonna steal you away from all those guys.

From the Sunday, the day I met you,
I’ve been in bed, I’m gonna get you
Ruby, Ruby, when will you be mine?

I got a girl and Ruby is her name
And I need a girl just to set her hall of fame.

Got some other money, too
I’m gonna give it all of you
Ruby, Ruby, when will you be mine?
Ruby, Ruby, when will you be mine?
Ruby, Ruby, when will you be mine?

"Save The Last Dance For Me"

"Save The Last Dance For Me"
(originally by The Drifters)



You can dance every dance with the guy
Who gives you the eye, let him hold you tight
You can smile every smile for the man
Who held your hand beneath the pale moonlight
But don't forget who's taking you home
And in whose arms you're gonna be
So darlin' save the last dance for me

Oh, I know that the music's fine like sparkling wine
Go and have your fun
Laugh and sing, but while we're apart
Don't give your heart to anyone
And don't forget who's taking you home
And in whose arms you're gonna be
So darlin' save the last dance for me

Baby, don't you know I love you so
Oh, can't you feel it when we touch
I will never never let you go
Oh, I love you, oh, so much

You can dance (You can dance)
Go and carry on till the night is gone, and it's time to go
(You can dance, you can dance)
If he asks (You can dance)
If you're all alone (You can dance)
Can he take you home (You can dance)
You must tell him no (You can dance)
'Cause don't forget who's taking you home
And in whose arms you're gonna be
So darlin' (save) save the last dance for me

But don't forget who's taking you home
And in whose arms your gonna be
So darlin' (save) save the last dance for me
Save the last dance for me
Save, save the last dance for me
(Save) Save the last dance for me
(Save) Save the last dance for me
Save, save the last dance for me
(Save) save the last dance for me
Save the last dance for me

"Say What's In My Heart"

"Say What's In My Heart"



My eyes can't lie to you
My kiss my kiss can only tell you true now
You say you have your doubts
But I say I don't know what that talks about now

My world, I have given you
I never gave myself the way I gave myself to you
What have I gotta do to make you believe I love you
What have I gotta say to make you believe you're the one for me

Didn't you hold me last night
Didn't you look in my eyes
Didn't I, didn't I say what's in my heart
Didn't my heart tell you true, that I could only love you
Didn't I, didn't I say what's in my heart
When I say I love you, I say what's in my heart

There is no other love
I know that God knows you're the only one so
Why can't you believe when I tell you there ain't nobody
There ain't nobody but you in my heart

Long as we've been together
You should know by now the love I feel, I feel forever

What have I gotta do to make you believe I love you
What have I gotta say to make you believe you're the one for me,
Didn't you hold me last night
Didn't you look in my eyes
Didn't I, didn't I say what's in my heart
Didn't my heart tell you true, that I could only love you
Didn't I, didn't I say what's in my heart
When I say I love you I say what's in my heart

I'll never walk away, I'll never leave your side,
I'll never break your heart looking in someone else's eyes
Your the one I need, the air that I breathe
I won't live one day without you, believe me

Didn't you hold me last night,
Didn't you look in my eyes,
Didn't I, didn't I say what's in my heart,
Didn't my heart tell you true, that I could only love you
Didn't I, didn't I say what's in my heart
When I say I love you I say what's in my heart

Didn't you hold me last night,
Didn't you look in my eyes,
Didn't I, didn't I say what's in my heart,
Didn't my heart tell you true, that I could only love you
Didn't I, didn't I say what's in my heart,
Didn't you hold me last night
Didn't you look in my eyes
Didn't I, didn't I say what's in my heart

"She Took You For A Ride"

"She Took You For A Ride"



(Lee diamond, george davis)

It was just imagination, the temptation that went to your head and now you are a victim of circumstance

You've beat me to the girl that I always wanted
You thought you had her brother but you still don't own her because I'm not through
And there's nothing you can do
You never had her
She took you for a ride

I know that it's a fact that you sneak behind my back
Smiled in my face and deceived me with your lies, but I'm not through
Oh, there's nothing you can do
You never had her
She took you for a ride

But this is the part that you knew nothing of
She confessed to me that she toyed with your love
You were just a game, that she loved to play
You never had her
She took you for a ride

All of her ecstasy that you had
Was just imagination, the temptation that went to your head and now you are a victim of circumstance

You had her brother, you were my guest
You pawned your broken heart just like all the rest
And now you are through
And there's nothing you can do
You never had her
She took you for a ride

Was just imagination, the temptation that went to your head and now you are a victim of circumstance

She took you for a ride

"Show Me The Way"

"Show Me The Way"



I can hear the bells are ringing
I can hear the angels singing
My darling has left me
Whoa, somebody please help me
Cause I need someone to show me the way

Whoa, I can hear the people say
As I kneel and start to pray
His darling has left him
Whoa I want to tell you, somebody, somebody, help him
Cause he needs someone to show him the way, whoa

For at night when I think of you dear
At all times, all through the day
Why don't you come on, come on, come on darling
Cause I need a someone to show, show me the way

But how can I hear the bells ringing
Whoa I wanna tell you that I can hear, that I can hear the angels singing
My darling has left me, whoa I wanna get somebody, somebody help me
Cause I need someone to show me the way

Show me the way

"Show Some Emotion"

"Show Some Emotion"



I've tried my best for so long
To break down these walls
But you build them strong
So I stand here waiting, wondering why
Oh why

Why you don't give a little bit
Break down and give a little bit

Show, show some emotion
Open, open your heart,
Set free an ocean
Only a feeling can save us now

You say you've been hurt
Well you're not alone
As you race through this life
What you keep to yourself

Can turn you to stone
All it would take is one kind word
To be heard

Come on and give a little bit
Try to forgive a little bit
Show, show some emotion
Open, open your heart
Set free an ocean
Only a feeling can save us now

Show, show some emotion
Open, open your heart
Set free an ocean
Only a feeling can save us now

Show some emotion
Open, open your heart
Set free an ocean
Only a feeling can save us now

"Silent Night"

"Silent Night"



Silent night, holy night!
All is calm, all is bright.
Round yon virgin, mother and child.
Holy infant so tender and mild,
Sleep in heavenly peace,
Sleep in heavenly peace.

Silent night, holy night!
Shepherds quake at the sight.
Glories stream from heaven afar

Heavenly hosts sing alleluia,
Christ the savior is born!
Christ the savior is born.

Silent night, holy night!
Son of God love's pure light.
Radiant beams from thy holy face
With dawn of redeeming grace,
Jesus lord, at thy birth.
Jesus lord, at thy birth.
