"What You See Is What You Sweat"

"What You See Is What You Sweat"



Boyfriend I'm true to you, don't make me blue
I thought we had together and that everythin' was going okay
But than you started showin' me another side of you
I've never seen before

Nothin' that I would do was ever enough for you boy, ooh baby
And that you're drivin' our Mercedes Benz
Loaned you a little cash to spend
But still that just wasn't enough, oh no

'Cause what you see always seems to be what you sweat
Ooh, you're never satisfied, you're always wantin' somethin' better, yeah
That's the way you are, wantin' more and more and more

My friends all think I'm crazy after everythin' that I know about you
I'm still havin' mixed emotions boy, they just don't wanna fade away

Nothin' that I would do was ever enough for you boy, ooh baby
I let you cruise in my Mercedes Benz
Loaned you a little cash to spend
Still that just wasn't enough, oh

What you see always seems to be what you sweat
Ooh, you're never satisfied, you're always wantin' somethin' better, yeah
What you see always seems to be what you sweat
You're never satisfied, always wantin' somethin' better, yeah

He's sweatin', he's got to conquer, he's sweatin' by the hour
He's sweatin', he's got the taste, still sweatin' on the flower
He's sweatin', he can't stand it
He's makin' moves that's how he planned it
He's not satisfied with the best, he' got to check out all the rest

Nothin' that I would do would ever enough for you boy
You wanna have my Mercedes Benz
Gave you a little cash to spend
Still that just wasn't enough, oh no

What you see always seems to be what you sweat
You're never satisfied, you're always wantin' somethin' better
What you see always seems to be what you sweat
You're never satisfied, always wantin' somethin' better

What you see, you're never satisfied
Always wantin' somethin' better
What you see always seems to be what you sweat
Always wantin' somethin' better

"When The Battle Is Over"

"When The Battle Is Over"



One more time you hurt me
You thought you you had your victory
One more reason For you to worry
Cause you got the best of me
You should never count your chickens
Before you eggs get hatched
I believe it, mm, To my soul
You finally met your match

Tell me now
When this battle is over
Who will wear the crown
When this battle is over
Who will wear the crown

Who it will be
Who it will be

Will it be you
Will it be me

Tell me now – Who will wear the crown yeah yeah
Ever time I kiss ya
I feel I get the upper hand
I want you ooo to surrender
And tell me ya gon' be my man
A slip of the lip has been known to sink a ship
And I believe I believe I believe to my soul
I finally got a winner's slip

When this battle is over, I wonder
Who will wear the crown

When this battle is over
Who will wear the crown

Who it will be
Who it will be

Will it be you
Will it be me

Yeah, Tell me know – Who will wear the crown
When this battle is over
Who be wearin' this crown
When this battle is over
Oh when its over children
When this battle is over
Yeaaah when its over

"Who Needs You?"

"Who Needs You?"



If you ever need me
You know where to call me
And if you ever want me
You know where to write me
But you never call me
And no, you never write me
So, who needs you?
Who needs you?

Take a pen, a pencil
A hand, a little item
Or the telephone, dear
Why you want to fight'em
How much can it cost you
Why don't you get lost, dear?
Who needs you?
Who needs you?

You came on like a big deal
And all that you could beg me
Listen Mister Big Wheel
All you do is drag me

When I really need you
You just can't be found, dear
And when I really want you
You're nowhere around, dear
So, all this big production
Leads to one deduction
Who needs you?
Who needs you?

You came on like a big deal
And all that you could beg me
But listen Mister Big Wheel
All you do is drag me

When I really need you
You just can't be found, dear
And when I really want you
You're nowhere around, dear
So, all this big production
Just leads to one deduction
Who needs you?
Who needs you now?
Who needs you?
Who needs you now?
Who needs you?
Who needs you?

"With Pen In Hand"

"With Pen In Hand"



With pen in hand
You sign your name
Today at five
I'll be on that train
And you'll be free
And I'll be alone
So alone

If you think
We can't find the love we once knew
If you think
I can't make everything up to you
Then I'll be gone
And you'll be on your own
You'll be on your own

Can you take good care of Jenny
Can you take her to school everyday
Can you teach her how to play
All the games that little girls play
Hear what I say
Can you teach her how to roll up her hair
Can you make sure each night that she says her prayers
Well if you can do all these things
Then maybe she won't miss me
Maybe she won't miss me

And tonight as you laid in that big lonely bed
And you look at that pillow
Where I laid my head
With your heart on fire
Will you have no desire
To kiss me
Or to hold me

And if you can forget
The good times we had
If you don't think
They out weigh the bad
Well then go ahead
Sign your name
And I'll be
On my way
I'll be on my way

"Without The One You Love"

"Without The One You Love"



Baby, I need your good lovin'
Got to have your love right now, baby
So come and fill my empty arms
And make my life worthwhile

Because I'm not livin', baby, I only exist
I'll never laugh, I'll never smile no more
Don't care if I stay like this, because

Without the one you love, life is not worthwhile
Without your love, my dear, I'm like a fatherless child
So come and fill my empty arms
And make my life worthwhile

When I feel the hurt comin' on
I stop and cry like I'm cryin'
(Right now)
People ask why would a grown man cry
I drop my head and I sigh and reply

Without the one you love, life is not worthwhile
Without your love, my dear, I'm like a fatherless child
So come and fill my empty arms
And make my life worthwhile

(Baby, I need your good lovin')
Sometimes I feel like a wanderer
(Got to have your love right now)
Searching for peace within

(Baby, I need your good lovin')
I need you my darling
(Got to have your love right now)
Like a lost soul needs a friend

So come and fill my empty arms
And fill my empty life

(Baby, I need your good lovin')
Nobody knows the emptiness I feel
(Got to have your love right now)
And I feel it

(Baby, I need your good lovin')
Nobody knows the loneliness I feel
(Got to have your love right now)
And I feel it because

Without the one you love, life is not worthwhile
Without your love, my dear, I'm like a fatherless child
So come and fill my empty arms
And make my life worthwhile

By the railroad tracks
Waiting for my baby
'Cause he's coming back
Coming back to me
On the 503
And it won't be long
No, it won't be long

Since the man has been gone
There ain't a thing worth mentioning
Nothin' been going on

And that's why I know
When the whistle blows
Yeah, that it won't be long
No, no, it won't be long

My daddy told me
When he said goodbye
Yes, he did
"I'll be back, baby
Baby, by and by,"

And that's why I waited
So doggone long, yeah
Can't you see how happy I am?
Because the man is coming home

So now, here I be

Oh, waiting for my baby
He's coming back
Coming back to me
On the 503
Yeah, and it won't be long
No, no, it won't be long

I ain't had no loving
Since you know when
He's a long-gone rooster
And I'm a lonesome hen

And that's why I'm sure
When the whistle blows
Yeah, that it won't be long
No, no, it won't be long

Mmm, and I'm so excited
My knees are shaking, yeah
Mr. Engineer
Don't you keep me waiting!
You hear me?
Telling you:
Hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry!
Hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry!

Baby, here I am
Oh, by the railroad tracks
Waiting for my baby
He's coming back

Coming back to me
Lord, on the 503
Yeah, and it won't be long
No, it won't be long

Ahh, yeah, I know
When the whistle blows
Hey, that it won't be long

That it won't be long
No, no, it won't be long
Said it won't be long
No, it won't be long...

"Wonderful"

"Wonderful"



Feels like I've seen you before
Maybe in a past life, you were mine and I was yours
'Cause the vibe we share feels so comfortable
Is it possible someone could make me lose control

Look what you've done to me (Mmm)
Finding it hard to breathe
'Cause I just can't believe
You're feeling me like I'm feeling you

I had to pinch myself (Oh)
'Cause nobody else has (Yeah, yeah)
Given me such a chill
And made me feel the way that you do

I just gotta let you know
In case you didn't know
I-I-I-I-I-I think you're wonderful
There's this thing you do to me
That thing that makes me weak
Baby, I-I-I-I think you're wonderful

Questioning what this is
If it's too good to be true
I don't wanna fool myself
'Cause I'm fallin' hard for you

Givin' me that old school love
Sayin' I'm the only one
Showin' me in so many ways
That you're crazy for me

Look what you've done to me (Oh, baby)
Finding it hard to breathe
'Cause I just can't believe
You're feeling me like I'm feeling you

I had to pinch myself (Ow)
'Cause nobody else has
Given me such a chill
And make me feel the way that you do, baby

I just gotta let you know
In case you didn't know
I-I-I-I-I-I think you're wonderful
There's this thing you do to me
That thing that makes me weak
Baby, I-I-I-I think you're wonderful

I'd go anywhere
Far away from here
It would be okay
As long as you are there

You take away my pain
And I'll never be the same
You've got my heart, baby
And I just want to say, baby

I just gotta let you know (Sweet thing, yeah, yeah)
In case you didn't know (Woo)
I-I-I (I-I) I-I-I (I-I-I think you're wonderful, baby)
think you're wonderful
There's this thing you do to me (This thing you do to
me, baby)
That thing that makes me weak
Baby, I-I-I-I think you're wonderful (I-I think you're
wonderful, yeah)

I just gotta let you know (Ooh, baby)
In case you didn't know (In case you didn't know)
I-I-I-I-I-I think you're wonderful
There's this thing you do to me
That thing that makes me weak
Baby, I-I-I-I think you're wonderful
