"My Baby"

"My Baby"


Whose hair styles are out of this world
Whether it's straight or bu'font or it's curled
My baby my baby my baby... hey hey hey
My baby, baby pretty baby

Hair soft like a baby lamb I love to run my fingers through it.
I hope she digs me the way I am, but if I have to change.
You know I'm gonna do it for my baby,
(I'm gonna do it for my baby)

Personality contains more gold than any bank in this world could hold.
My baby, my baby, my baby, hey hey hey
My baby, baby, pretty baby

Enough gold in her personality, to set Fort Knox to shame.
This golden girl belongs to me, yet you know Eli tried
To stake his claim on my baby.

(My baby) she's cute as can be (my baby) this girl's got a hold on me
(My baby) has a kiss so sweet, she knocks me off my feet,
She makes my life complete

Oh yeah, she's my baby
Oh yeah, she's my baby
And I love her so...
Yeah, I love my baby so...

My baby, she's cute as can be, my baby, this girl's got a hold on me
My baby, has a kiss so sweet, she knocks me off my feet,
She makes my life complete

Who has my mind in a kind of haze, who has me walking around in a daze.
My baby, my baby, my baby, hey hey hey
My baby, baby, pretty baby

She gives me a feeling I can't explain, she sets my soul on fire.
But I don't feel hurt and I don't feel pain.
All I feel is strong desire for my baby,

Oh yeah my baby, that personality to satisfy me
That's my baby, my baby, my baby...

"My Christmas Tree"

"My Christmas Tree"


There's a Christmas tree
In a window frame
Just inside my door
But my Christmas tree
Doesn't look the same
As it always has before
There's just one lonely present
Beneath my Christmas tree
'Cause the best little present
A girl ever had
Has gone away from me
Oh, my Christmas tree is not very big
In fact it's kind of small
Honey went, he picked 'em out
They always seem so tall
The lights don't seem so bright this year
It's hard for me to see
The smile that made my Christmas bright
Is gone away from me
I have been so lonely
Since you left me all alone
All I want for Christmas is
My baby back at home
oh, my Christmas tree's so sad and bare
My room's so big and cold
They wish me happy new year
But the new year is already on
There's no little angel
On top where it used to be
'Cause the angel
That made my Christmas right
Has gone away from me...
'Cause the angel
That made my Christmas right
Has gone away from me...
'Cause the angel
That made my Christmas right
Has gone away from me...

"My Girl"

"My Girl"


I've got sunshine on a cloudy day.
When it's cold outside I've got the month of May.

I guess you'd say
What can make me feel this way?
My girl (my girl, my girl)
Talkin' 'bout my girl (my girl).

I've got so much honey the bees envy me.
I've got a sweeter song than the birds in the trees.

Well, I guess you'd say
What can make me feel this way?
My girl (my girl, my girl)
Talkin' 'bout my girl (my girl).

Hey hey hey
Hey hey hey
Ooooh.

I don't need no money, fortune or fame.
I've got all the riches, baby, one man can claim.

Well, I guess you'd say
What can make me feel this way?
My girl (my girl, my girl)
Talkin' 'bout my girl (my girl).

I've got sunshine on a cloudy day
With my girl.
I've even got the month of May
With my girl
Talkin' 'bout
Talkin' 'bout
Talkin' 'bout
My girl
Ooooh
My girl
As long as I can talk about my girl...

"My Love"

"My Love"


My love is warmer than a smile
My love gives to every needing child
If anyone should ask you who's my true love
Tell them my love true is ever
Letting all their love come through
My love sees love with not a face
And lives to love through time and space.
If all of everything about my love
Fits to the tune of you
Then you can say that you are my love too.
Let my love shine throughout the world
To every mountain top and steeple
Let It be felt by every soul
'Til love's all over
Let it reach out to every heart
To every disinfranchised people
'Til it is present and no more is
Pain all over
Our love sees love's the key to peace
We'll pray 'til all world wars have ceased
Should you or anyone you know
Enough to say they feel as we
Then let our universal song be free
Let our love shine throughout the world
To every mountain tap and steeple
Let it be felt by every soul
Til love's all over

Let it reach out to every heart
To every disinfranchised people
Till it is present and no more is
Pain all over

Say words of love to all we see
To rich or poor for love is equal
Let us lift up humanity
Spread love all over
Let all its forces join as one
So to rebuke all signs of evil
Through every valley, land and sea

Our love's all people

"Night & Day"

"Night & Day"


Night and day
You are the one
Only you beneath the moon
And under the sun
Whether near to me or far
It's no matter, darling, where you are
I think of you, night and day

Day and night, why is it so
That this longing for you
Follows wherever I go
In the roaring traffic's boom
In the silence of my lonely room
I think of you, night and day

Night and day, under the hide of me
There's an oh, such a hungry yearning
Burning inside of me
And it's torment won't be through
Till you let me spend my life making love to you
Day and night, night and day

Oh you are the one

Only you beneath the moon and under the sun

Whether near to me or far
It's no matter, darling, where you are
I think of you, night and day

Night and day, under the hide of me
There's an oh, such a hungry yearning
Burning inside of me
And it's torment won't be through
Until you let me spend my life making love to you
Day and night, night and day

 

[fox69]

"Night And Day"

"Night And Day"


When the jungle shadows fall
Like the tick tick tock of the eye of the clock
As it's standing against the wall
Like the drip drip drip of the rain drops
When the summer shower's through
So a voice within me
Keeps revealing you...you

Night and day
You are the one
Only you beneath the moon
And under the sun
Whether near to me or far
It's no matter, baby, where you are
I think of you
Night and day

Day and night
Why is it so
That this longing for you follows wherever I go
In the roaring traffic gloom
In the silence of my lonely room
I think of you
Night and day

Night and day
Under the hide of me
Though such a hungry yearning
Burning inside of me
This torment won't be through
'til you let me spend my life making love to you
Day and night
Night and day

Night and day
Under the hide of me
Oh, such a hungry yearning
Burning, burning inside of me
This torment won't be through
'til you let me spend my life making love to you
Day and night
Night and day

Night and day
Night and day
Night and day
Night, night, night and day
Night and day
Night, night and day
Night and day

"No Man Can Love Her The Way I Do"

"No Man Can Love Her The Way I Do"


Ah, he can buy her diamonds, he can buy her pearls,
He can send her on a trip, all around this world.
He can buy her anything her little heart desires
But he don't know how to set that little girl's soul on fire

Even though he drives a big fine Cadillac car,
And he keeps her dressed up (ah!) like a movie star.
Anything she asks of him, his money can buy
But when it comes down to love, she gives me a try!

No man can love her like I do..

Tell the truth, no man can love her like I do,
No man can love her like I do..
Even though I don't have one thin dime,
Everytime I call her, you know she's right on time.

No man can love her like I do..

Ain't no man in this land who can love her like I do!
No man can love her like I do!

"No More Water In The Well"

"No More Water In The Well"


No more water in the well, no more.
No more water in the well, no more.
You take my love for granted
like water, water you spill and you waste.
Though love is thicker than water
it spills quicker than water
and you'll lookup one of these days,
and there'll be no more water in the well.
How long do you think my love can last
through sorrow pain and mistrust?
Today my love is strong,
but keep doing me wrong
and tomorrow it may turn to dust.

"Not Now (I'll Tell You Later)"

"Not Now (I'll Tell You Later)"


Do Do Do Do
Do Do Do Do Do
Do Do Do Do Do Do - Hey

When my Dad thought I had become of age
He said, "Son, you're getting to the Lovin' Stage"

I said, "Oh yeah, oh yeah"

"It's time you stopped being all alone
You've got to find a girl you can call your own"

I said, "Not now, I'll tell you later
Not now, I'll tell you when
Not now, I'll tell you later
When I'm gonna fall in love"

Do Do Do Do
Do Do Do Do Do
Do Do Do Do Do Do - Yeah

I met a little girl - fine as could be
I said, "Girl, you're the girl that was made for me"

She said, "Oh yeah, oh yeah"

I thought if I tried, I just couldn't miss
So I asked the lil' girl for just one lil' kiss

She said, "Not now, I'll tell you later (Not now)
Not now, I'll tell you when (Not now)
Not now, I'll tell you later
When I'm gonna fall in love"

When it's time for you to fall in love
It won't make sense for you to hurry
Take you time and make up your mind
Cause the surer you are, the less you have to work

Do Do Do Do
Do Do Do Do Do
Do Do Do Do Do Do - Hey

Not now, I'll tell you later (Not now)
Not now, I'll tell you when (Not now)
Not now, I'll tell you later
(Everybody)
When I'm gonna fall in love

"Now That You've Won Me"

"Now That You've Won Me"


Now that you've won me
I hope that you'll remember how
Don't you forget it (no, baby)
'Cause you know I love you now
Keep on being sweet and kind in the same old way
Keep on saying that you're mine, each and every day

Now that you've won me
Now that you've won me

Now that you've got me
I hope our heartaches don't begin
I hope my heart was not just a bet you had to win
Keep on kissing me day and night
Don't you ever change
Keep holding me tight, baby
Don't you dare start acting strange

Now that you've won me
Now that you've got me

I felt it quite a while ago, but I had to say "no"
I wouldn't admit it to myself
But I guess it's right that the truth comes to the light
I'll admit, this is it, baby
I'll admit, this is it

Now that I'm yours
I hope you keep me for you own
Don't misuse me and then leave me all alone
Keep on doing the things that you did when we first met
I hope you still remember them
I hope you don't forget

Now that you've won me
Now that I'm yours
Now that you've got me
Now that you've won me
Now that I'm yours
