"Easy Evil"

"Easy Evil"



Well you are
Such an easy evil
You're such a sensuous sin
Sometimes I don't know where I'm goin'
'Til I been taken in

You're such an easy evil
Such a promise of fun
Sometimes I don't know what I'm doin'
'Til I'm done, you're a sneaky one

Here he comes now touchin' me
Callin' my name
Again
Here I go now
Like a moth to a flame
I'm a puppet for you baby

Such an easy evil
You're such a sensuous sin
Sometimes I don't know where I'm goin'
'Til I been taken in, yeah

Ooh, ooh, yeah, ooh, oh

Here he comes now touchin' me
Callin' my name
Again
Here I go now
Like a moth to a flame
I'm a puppet for you baby

Such an easy evil
You're such a sensuous sin
Sometimes I don't know where I'm goin'
'Til I been taken in

Well, no, no, no, no, no, no
No, no, no, no, no, no, no
'Til I been taken in
I been taken in

"Every Day I Have To Cry"

"Every Day I Have To Cry"



Every day I have to cry some
Every day I have to cry some
Dry the water from my eyes some
Every day I have to cry

There was a little boy I had planned to marry
This was my love I didn't want to share it
I thought that love would make my life bright and sunny
He said he couldn't love me 'cause he didn't have no money

So, every day I have to cry some
Every day I have to cry some
Dry the water from my eyes some
Every day I have to cry

I got me a boy
I guess I really loved him
Every night now I was thinking of him
But you can't mix love with money
'Cause if you do it's gonna hurt somebody

So, every day I have to cry some
Every day I have to cry some
Dry the water from my eyes some
Every day I have to cry

Although I know that he's just a poor boy
Is it wrong to love 'cause he's not a rich boy?
Every time you mix love with money
Every time you hurt somebody

So, every day I have to cry some
Every day I have to cry some
Dry the water from my eyes some
Every day I have to cry

Every day I have to cry
Every day I have to cry
Oh, oh

"Every Ounce Of Strength"

"Every Ounce Of Strength"



I'll put your pictures all around my wall
I'll build a tower of love that won't fall
I'll do everything I can
I'll try to be your own lovin' woman
With every ounce of strength I have
Oh, yeah

Oh, there is nothing that I wouldn't do
To let the world know
I'm crazy 'bout you

I'd use all of my woman's power
To keep you happy for a million hours
Every ounce of strength I have
Every ounce of strength I have

You can ask for what you want
And a-get what you ask
I'd give my all to make
I would love for ever last
With every ounce of strength I have
Oh, yeah

Long as blood runs through my veins
Long as I can see clouds that bring on rain
I'll use a-all of my woman's power
To keep you happy for a million hours

With every ounce of strength I have
Every ounce of strength I have
I'm gonna keep you happy
With every, every, every, every ounce of strength I have
Every ounce
I'm gonna keep you happy
With every, every, every

"Get Yourself To Love"

"Get Yourself To Love"



Isn't it time all of love's bad debts got paid?
Don't be afraid
Isn't it true?
If you don't trust in yourself
You'll trust no-one else
All your favourite memories
Are not your worst enemies
Come on, give 'em a ride
You gotta decide to push them aside
Give it a try

You gotta get yourself to love
She's not the only one
You, you gotta get yourself to love
Why be the lonely one?
Get yourself to love

Take away the things you need to start again
Your heart will never mend
Take away, oh, the chance you have to slip and fall
You will miss it all

Drop your one-part harmonies
For the harder melodies
You're so aware
Of the crosses you bear
Don't be so scared
Show that you care

Oh, you, oh, you gotta get yourself to love
She's not the only one
Oh, you, yes you, you gotta get yourself to love
Why be the lonely one?

Oh, you, yeah, you gotta get yourself to love
Yes, love, you gotta love sometime
You, oh, you
Why be the sad and lonely one?
You know
You can do it, yes, you can do it, you can do it for yourself
Yes, you can, oh, don't bend
You can do it, you can do it, you can do it
You can do it for yourself

"Girls Can't Do What The Guys Do"

"Girls Can't Do What The Guys Do"



Ooh, ooh
Guys are gonna wanna go out and play sometime
But girls you must not let it get you down
Just take this advice I give you
Just like a mother
You try to match a guy's independence
You end up in the gutter

Girls, you can't do what the guys do, no
And still be a lady
Girls, you can't do what the guys do, no
And still be a lady
No, oh no

And, listen girls when you give your heart away
You can easily be hurt
And the least little wrong he does
Always seems like dirt
So take this advice I give you
Just like a mother
You try to match a guy's independence
You end up in the gutter

Girls, you can't do what the guys do, no
And still be a lady
Girls, you can't do what the guys do, no
And still be a lady
No, oh, no, mmm

When you put your faith in one guy
(Sometimes he'll make you happy)
(Sometimes he'll make you cry)
Don't lose your self-respect
Tryin' to gain revenge
'Cause no matter how you do it
You lose out in the end

Girls, you can't do what the guys do, no
And still be a lady
Girls, you can't do what the guys do, no
And still be a lady
Girls, you can't do what the guys do, no
And still be a lady
Girls, you can't do what the guys do, no
And still be a lady
Girls, you can't do what the guys do, no
And still be a lady
Girls, you can't do what the guys do, no

"Girls It Ain't Easy"

"Girls It Ain't Easy"



Yeah, it ain't easy
Girls it ain't easy
To keep the man you love satisfied
It ain't easy
Girls it ain't easy
To keep the one you love by your side

A woman's work is never done
Never stops, it goes on and on
You work your fingers to the bone
You gotta be home every time he phones

Sometimes the going gets a little tough
Seems like my best ain't good enough
Keeps you losing sleep
Seven days a week, yeah

It ain't easy
Girls it ain't easy
To keep the man you love satisfied
It ain't easy
Girls it ain't easy
To keep the one you love by your side

To keep him happy
You must sacrifice
Be ready and willing
To spend lonely nights
Do what you can
Though he seems ungrateful
Love him so true
Even though he seems unfaithful

But when his hope is gone
And life gets him down
That's when he'll say
He needs you around

Hard to live with him
Hard to live without him
It ain't easy, no

Oh, yeah, it ain't easy
Girls it ain't easy
It ain't easy
Girls it ain't easy

You got to favour him with understanding
When understanding is what he needs
We try hard to give them respect
All that we get is their regret

But when they're in trouble
They need our love and care
No matter when we gotta be right there
In between the crying
Gotta keep trying

It ain't easy
Girls it ain't easy, ooh, ooh, ooh
It ain't easy
Girls it ain't easy

It ain't easy
Girls it ain't easy, yeah, ooh
It ain't easy
Girls it ain't easy, no

"Give Me Time"

"Give Me Time"



If you'll only give me time
All the heartache that he left behind
Will fade from my mind
I'll be free to love again

If you'll only give me time
I'll forget I even knew his name
Forget that he came
I'll be no good till I can
Try to understand
But when I'm sure I need him no more
That's when I'll reach out for your hand

So darling give me time
And you will see that I'm
Ready to love you
Just as you love me
Wait awhile
'Til I can find my smile
And I'll be yours for as long as I live
If you'll only give me time, yeah

So darling give me time
And you will see that I'm
Ready to love you
Just as you love me, oh
Wait awhile
'Til I can find my smile
And I'll be yours for as long as I live
If you'll only give me time

"Go Ahead On"

"Go Ahead On"



If you're gonna break my heart
Go ahead on
Guess you think you're kinda smart
Go ahead on
(Well you've got another girl)
And you're having fun
(Got her head in a whirl)
See what you've done
Go ahead on
(Go ahead on)
I said go ahead on
(Go ahead on)

You never call me on the 'phone
Make me so sad
Sittin' all alone
Feelin' bad
(Tired of being your fool)
'Cause you told me lies
(I can't take no more)
Of no alibi
Go ahead on
(Go ahead on)
Go ahead on
(Go ahead on)

For a little while
We had a good thing goin'
Everything was peaches and cream
But the devil in you started showin'
Do you understand now
What I mean?

You put me down
Every night
If you wanna be a clown
That's all right
(When it's all too late)
Then you'll see
(She's done the same to you)
Like you did it to me
Go ahead on
(Go ahead on)
Go ahead on
(Go ahead on)

You put me down
Every night
If you wanna be a clown
That's all right
(When it's all too late)
Baby you'll see
(She's done the same to you)
Like you did it to me
Go ahead on
(Go ahead on)
Go ahead on
(Go ahead on)

Git, git, git
(Go ahead on)
Go ahead on
(Go ahead on)
You'd better pack your bag
(Go ahead on)
Go ahead on
(Go ahead on)
Bye, bye, bye
(Go ahead on)
Go ahead on

"Go Easy On Me"

"Go Easy On Me"



I hear you baby, I know how you feel
We're both hungry for something that's real
Be honest with me or don't even try
'Cause I can't afford another goodbye

Go easy on me, baby, not too rough
If this is right, there's no need to rush
Oh, go easy on me, if you don't mind
'Cause I can't afford to lose another time

Starting over isn't easy as it sounds
When you try to make the pieces fit
They all fall down
And I need more than someone to hold on to
I need a love that's tried and true
It's what I'm searching for
It's worth waiting for

Talk gently to me, nice and low
If you mean it, baby, my heart will know
Oh, go easy on me, like walking on ice
'Cause forever happens once not twice

Starting over isn't easy as it sounds
When you try to make the pieces fit
They all fall down
And I need more than someone to hold on to
I need a love that's tried and true
It's what I'm looking for
It's worth waiting for

Go easy on me, baby, not too rough
If this is right, we'll know soon enough
Oh, go easy on me, not too fast
I gotta believe that what's between us
Can be more than just a promise
'Cause they don't last
So all that I ask
Go easy on me
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Easy, ooh, ooh, ooh

"Goodbye"

"Goodbye"



Goodbye, bye, bye, bye
Is all he said to me
Goodbye, bye, bye, bye
Is all he said to me

I should have known
When I looked into his eyes
He wasn't serious
I should have seen through his disguise
He led me to believe
That he would never leave
And I thought that I blew his mind

He said goodbye, bye, bye, bye
Is all he said to me
Bye, bye, bye, bye
Is all he said to me

I sure get discouraged
When I think of what a fool I've been
I don't know where he's at

And I don't know where he's been
So how can he leave me?
Hurt and deceive me
When I make a mistake
This is all he had to kept on saying

Goodbye, bye, bye, bye
Is all he said to me
Goodbye, bye, bye, bye
Is all he said to me, mmm

So how can he leave me?
Hurt and deceive me
When I make a mistake
This is all he had to kept on saying

Goodbye, ye, ye, ye
Is all he said to me
Goodbye, bye, bye, bye
Is all he said to me, yeah, ooh, ooh
Goodbye, bye, goodbye, bye
I said goodbye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye,
Bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye
