"Mother Earth"

"Mother Earth"

You may high hat me all the time
You may never look my way
Mother Earth is layin' for you
That's the debt you got to pay

Don't care how great you are
I don't care what you're worth
'Cause when it all comes down
You got to go back to Mother Earth

You may have a lot of money
Diamonds and pearls
You may have your own airplane
To fly all over this world

Don't care how great you are
Yeah don't care how much you're worth,
don't care what you're worth
When it all winds up
You got to go back to Mother Earth

Mother Earth!

Mother Earth...

You may play the horses, baby
You may own your own race track
You may have enough money, darlin'
To buy anything you lack

Don't care how great you are
I don't care what you're worth, what you're worth
'Cause when it all comes down
You got to go back to Mother Earth

Yeah!

I like it

"Mother-In-Law Blues"

"Mother-In-Law Blues"

It was early in the mornin', I heard the rooster call for day
It was early in the mornin', I heard the rooster call for day
I looked out my window and saw my baby walk away

I cried Lord please stop her, ain't gonna get drunk no more
Yeah, I cried Lord please stop her, ain't gonna get drunk no more
I was out my window, come back baby, please don't go

I know she heard me callin', she looked back and waved her hand
I know she heard me callin', she looked back and waved her hand, yeah
I heard her tell her mother, that golfer was no good man, yeah

Watch out, watch out

Well, I was fine baby, leave her, mother held by the hand
I was fine baby, leave her mother held by the hand
I'd give anything I have to just see that little girl again

"Murdering Blues"

"Murdering Blues"

Well I went down to Eli's
To get my pistol outta pawn
When I got back home
My woman had done gone

Yes I'm gonna murder my baby
Wooh, if she don't stop cheatin' and lyin'
(I'm gonna put a hurtin' on this woman)
Well I'd rather be in the penitentiary
Than to be worried out of my mind

Well I came home last night, it was about four o'clock
The little room-side joint in the rear had just begun to rock
I ease upside so I could get a better view
I see my woman, she was doin' the monkey too!

I said yes, I'm gonna murder my baby
Wooh, if she don't stop her cheatin' and lyin'
(Yeah I'm gonna hurt her this mornin')
'Cause I'd rather go to the penitentiary
Than to be worried outta my mind

Yeah, I don't mind goin', ya know!

Caught cheatin' and lyin'!
I'm gonna hurt her this mornin'
Look out woman!

I give her all of my money
Just tryin' to be nice and kind
She spent it all on her whiskey
Oh yes, and beer and wine

I said yes, I'm gonna murder my baby
Wooh, if she don't stop cheatin' and lyin'
(Oh I'm gonna put a hurtin' on that woman!)
I'd rather go to the penitentiary
Than to be worried outta my mind

"My Time After Awhile"

"My Time After Awhile"

It's your time now baby
Ohh but it's gonna be mine after awhile
I said it's your time right now baby
Lord but it's gonna be mine after awhile
You know you know if things don't change
I'm gonna move on down

She stayed out last night
And do you know she just walked in
The girl is gettin' ready
She's going back out again
I said just wait one minute
Just before you go
She didn't even look at me
She just turned and walked out the door

It's your time, it's your time, it's your time right now
Ohh, I gotta, I gotta, I gotta feelin'
Ohh it's gonna, it's gonna, it's gonna be my time after awhile

I got a look through my window
And guess what I seen
My baby sat with another man
In a long black limosine

I said it's your time, it's your time
Yes you know I, you know I got that feelin' woman
Baby it's gonna be my time after awhile

I just wanna talk to my baby
And here's what I wanna say
Go ahead on and mistreat me
But every every dog got his day wow
Somebody better come here and get me baby
I just want to talk to my baby

"New York"

"New York"

Moon over Brooklyn, shining bright
Gonna see my baby in the Bronx tonight
Staten Island, Queens County, New York Harbor
Gotta get back to my Manhattan mama

New York, New York
New York, New York
You know it sounds so nice
I've got to say it twice
New York, New York

Downtown local bound to take me home to
Country canyons made of glass and chrome
Gotta get yourself hip to the ways of the street
You can't get into it until you get down deep in

New York, New York
New York, New York
You know it sounds so nice
They had to name it twice
New York, New York

See the wealth passing by my door
Looking through my window on the 86th floor
Can't get used to living where the air is clear
I got to dig the funky urban atmosphere

New York, New York
New York, New York
You know it sounds so nice
I've got to say it twice
New York, New York
New York!

Moon over Brooklyn, shining bright
Gonna see my woman in the Bronx tonight
Staten Island, Queens County, New York Harbor
Gotta get home to my Manhattan mama

New York, New York
New York, New York
You know it sounds so nice
They had to name it twice
New York, New York

Oh, New York, New York
New York, New York
You know it sounds so nice
I've got to say it twice
New York, New York

"Nickel Blues"

(Oh yeah, go ahead now)

Sometime I feel so evil it hurt my mind to think
(Yeah that's bad man)
Sometime I get so evil, you know it hurt my mind to think
(Ha ha)
Sometime I get so weary you know it hurt my feet to stink

You know I get to wonderin', people should I go or stay
Well get to wonderin', should I go or should I stay
Sometimes I fee1 it don't matter anyway
(Yeah you know what I'm talkin' about)

Seems like there ain't no reason for me feelin' so damn blue
Can't get no satisfaction, I don't care what I do
Seem like there ain't no reason for me feelin' so damn blue
(Yes that's true now)
I can't get no satisfaction, baby, I don't care what I do
(Yeah, I don't care, man, let me hear some)

"No More Doggin'"

"No More Doggin'"

Honey, no more doggin', foolin' around with you
Oh, no more doggin', foolin' around with you
I gotta let you out, honey, that's what I have to do

Well you told me that you loved me, you told me a lie
I'll love you, baby, until the day I die
No more doggin', foolin' around with you

Well, I took you off the streets and I made you fine
Spent all my money on whiskey, beer and wine
No more doggin', foolin' around with you
I gotta let you out, honey, that's what I have to do

Well, I gave you all my money, let you play me for a fool
You know pretty, baby, that's against your daddy's rule

"No Time To Live"

"No Time To Live"

As time begins to burn it's self upon me
And the days are growing very short
People try their hardest to reject me
But in a way their conscience won't be torn

Something's happen to me day by day
My pebble on the beach is getting' washed away yeah
Well I give it everything that is mine to give
Then I'll turn around to find that there is no time to live

So often I see the big wheel of fortune
Spinning for the man who holds the ace
There's many that'll change their places for me
But come to find I've never seen such lonely days

Something's happen to me day by day
My pebble on the beach is getting' washed away yeah
Well I give it everything that is mine to give
Then I'll turn around to find that there is no time to live
