Spoonful
05:19
|
|||
It could be a spoonsful of diamonds,
Could be a spoonful of gold,
Just a little spoon of your precious love,
Satisfies my soul.
Men lies about little,
Some of them cries about little,
Some of them dies about little,
Everything fight about little spoonful.
It could be a spoonful of coffee,
Could be a spoonful of tea,
But a little spoon of your precious love,
Good enough for me.
Men lies about that,
Some of them dies about that,
Some of them cries about that,
But everything fight about that spoonful.
That spoon, dat spoon, dat spoonful.

Shake It Up And Go
03:11
|
|||
You might be old, about 90 years
But you ain`t too old to shift them gears
You can shake it up and go (Shake it up and go)
Shake it up and go (Shake it up and go)
You good-looking people sure can shake it up and go
Mama killed a chicken, she thought it was a duck
She put it on the table with his legs sticking up
She had to shake it up and go (Shake it up and go)
Shake it up and go (Shake it up and go)
You good-looking people sure got to shake it up and go
I told my baby the week before last
The gait she had was just a little too fast
She had to shake it up and go (Shake it up and go)
Shake it up and go (Shake it up and go)
You good-looking people sure got to shake it up and go
Look here baby, you ain`t treating me right
You go out everyday, stay out late at night
You got to shake it up and go, baby (Shake it up and go)
You got to shake it up and go (Shake it up and go)
You good-looking people sure got to shake it up and go

Ain't No Sunshine
05:24
|
|||
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
It's not warm when she's away
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
And she's always gone too long
Anytime she goes away
Wonder this time where she's gone
Wonder if she's gone to stay
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
And this house just ain't no home
Anytime she goes away
And I know, I know, I know, I know,
I know, I know, I know, I know, I know,
I know, I know, I know, I know, I know,
I know, I know, I know, I know, I know,
I know, I know, I know, I know, I know,
I know, I know,
Hey, I oughtta leave young thing alone
But ain't no sunshine when she's gone
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
Only darkness every day
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
And this house just ain't no home
Anytime she goes away
Anytime she goes away
Anytime she goes away
Anytime she goes away

Double Trouble
08:39
|
|||
Lay awake at night,
Oh so low, just so troubled.
Can't get a job,
Laid off and I'm having double trouble.
Hey hey, to make you've got to try.
Baby, that's no lie.
Some of this generation is millionaires,
I can't even keep decent clothes to wear.
Laugh at me walking,
And I have no place to go.
Bad luck and trouble has taken me
I have no money to show.
Hey hey, to make you've got to try.
Baby, that's no lie.
Some of this generation is millionaires,
I can't even keep decent clothes to wear.

I would rather see you sleepin' in the ground
I would rather see you sleepin' in the ground

And some day I'm gonna get lucky
And down the road you know I'm gone
Well I would rather see you sleepin' in the ground
Well I would rather see you sleepin' in the ground
Than to stay around here when you're gonna pull me down
You know I give you all my money

Well I give you all my money, everything I own
Well today I'm gonna get lucky
And down the road you know I'm gone

Right off of my feet
Hoo hoo hoo

1st Verse
Somebody asked me, why I live the blues
I said the blues is all around me; I just find something I can use
And I feel it running through me, but I give it my heart and soul
I practice while Im singing; let the feeling take control
CHORUS
Im just tryin to tell the truth
Every time I sing the blues
2nd Verse
Might think about a woman and how she done me wrong
I might think about some hard times when I was barely hanging on
I might think about a brother who still cant make things be
Some fallin sisters sellin it on the street
CHORUS
BRIDGE
I find my inspiration in tears and desperation
Sad, sad stories we all know so well
Along with one more story to tell
(SOLO)
3rd Verse
Here I am another night; another town along the way
Room full of people say they wanna hear me play
Yes there was some hard times, my luck cannot survive
It takes a whole lot of livin; to make us all come alive

(Call It) Stormy Monday
06:43
|
|||
They call it stormy Monday, but Tuesday's just as bad
They call it stormy Monday, but Tuesday's just as bad
Wednesday's worse, and Thursday's also sad
Yes the eagle flies on Friday, and Saturday I go out to play
Eagle flies on Friday, and Saturday I go out to play
Sunday I go to church, then I kneel down and pray
Lord have mercy, Lord have mercy on me
Lord have mercy, my heart's in misery
Crazy about my baby, yes, send her home to me

Sweet Little Angel
08:14
|
|||
Got a sweet little angel people (thank you)
I love the way she spreads her wings
I've got a sweet little angel, people
I love the way she spreads her wings
When she spreads her wings around me
I get so hot and everything
You know, I ask my baby for a nickel
And she gave me a twenty dollar bill
Asked my baby for a nickel
And she gave me a twenty dollar bill
You know I ask her for a little frink of liquer
And she gave me a whiskey still
Oh, if my babe should quit me
Oh, I do believe my eyes would die
Oh, if my babe should quit me
Oh, I do believe my eyes would die
Cause if you don't love me me little angel
You will be the reason why

You got to help me

The bell has tolled, my baby caught that train an' gone
The barrelhouse told, my baby caught that train an' gone
It was all my fault, I musta' did somebody wrong
Everything that happens, you know I am to blame
Everything that happens, you know I am to blame
I'm gonna find myself a doctor, perhaps my luck will change
