I need a love to keep me happy, I need a love to keep me happy. Baby, baby keep me happy. Baby, baby keep me happy. |

Well I never kept a dollar past sunset,
It always burned a hole in my pants. Never made a school mama happy, Never blew a second chance. I need a love to keep me happy, I need a love to keep me happy. Baby, baby keep me happy. Baby, baby keep me happy. Always took candy from strangers, Didn't wanna get me no trade. Never want to be like papa, Working for the boss ev'ry night and day. I need a love to keep me happy, I need a love, baby won't ya keep me happy. Baby, won't ya keep me happy. Baby, please keep me I need a love to keep me happy, I need a love to keep me happy. Baby, baby keep me happy. Baby, baby keep me happy. Never got a flash out of cocktails, When I got some flesh off the bone. Never got a lift out of Lear jets, When I can fly way back home. I need a love to keep me happy, I need a love to keep me happy. Baby, baby keep me happy. Baby, baby keep me happy. |

Angie Angie when will those clouds all disappear?
Angie Angie where will it lead us from here? With no loving in our souls and no money in our coats You can?t say we?re satisfied But Angie Angie you can't say we never tried Angie you?re beautiful but ain?t it time we said good bye? Angie I still love you remember all those nights we cried? All the dreams we held so close seemed to all go up in smoke Let me whisper in your ear: Angie, Angie, where will it lead us from here? Oh, Angie don?t you weep, all your kisses still taste sweet I hate that sadness in your eyes But Angie, Angie, ain?t it time we said good-bye? With no loving in our souls and no money in our coats You can?t say we?re satisfied But Angie, I still love you, baby Ev?rywhere I look I see your eyes There ain?t a women that comes close to you Come on baby, dry your eyes But Angie, Angie ain?t it good to be alive? Angie, Angie, they can?t say we never tried. |

Love is strong and you're so sweet
You make me hard you make me weak Love is strong and you're so sweet And some day, babe we got to meet A glimpse of you was all it took A stranger's glance it got me hooked And I followed you across the stars I looked for you in seedy bars What are you scared of, baby It's more than just a dream I need some time We make a beautiful team Beautiful team Love is strong and you're so sweet And some day, babe we got to meet Just anywhere out in the park Out on the street and in the dark I followed you through swirling seas Down darkened woods with silent trees Your love is strong and your so sweet You make me hard you make me weak I wait for you until the dawn My mind is ripped my heart is torn And love is strong and your so sweet Your love is bitter it's taken neat |

Button your lip baby
Button your coat Let's go out dancing Go for the throat Let's bury the hatchet Wipe out the past Mae love together Stay on the path You're not the only one With mixed emotions You're not the only ship Adrift on this ocean This coming and going Is driving me nuts This to-ing and fro-ing Is hurting my guts So get off the fence It's creasing your butt Life is a party Let's get out and strut You're not the only one That's feeling lonesome You're not the only one With mixed emotions You're not the only one You're not the only one You're not the only one You're not the only one Let's grab the world By the scruff of the neck And drink it down deeply Let's love it to death So button your lip And button your coat Let's go out dancing Let's rock 'n' roll You're not the only one With mixed emotions You're not the only ship Adrift on this ocean You're not the only one That's feeling lonesome You're not the only one With mixed emotions |

She confessed her love to me
Then she vanished on the breeze Trying to hold on to that was just impossible She was more than beautiful Closer to etherial With a kind of down to earth flavor Close my eyes It's three in the afternoon Then I realize That she's really gone for good Anybody seen my baby Anybody seen her around Love has gone and made me blind I've looked but I just can't find She has gotten lost in the crowd I was flippin' magazines In that place on Mercer Street When I thought I spotted her Getting on a motor bike Looking rather lady like Didn't she just give me a wave? Salty tears It's three in the afternoon Has she disappeared Is she really gone for good Anybody seen my baby Anybody seen her around If I just close my eyes I reach out and touch the prize Anybody seen her around (Rap) Anybody seen my baby Anybody seen her around If I just close my eyes I reach out and touch the prize Anybody seen her around Lost, lost and never found I must have called her a thousand times Sometimes I think she's just in my imagination Lost in the crowd |

Hear the screams of Center 42
Loud enough to bust your brains out The opposition's tongue is cut in two Keep off the street 'cause you're in danger One hundred thousand disparus Lost in the jails in South America Cuddle up baby Cuddle up tight Cuddle up baby Keep it all out of sight Undercover Keep it all out of sight Undercover of the night The sex police are out there on the streets Make sure the pass laws are not broken The race militia has got itchy fingers All the way from New York back to Africa Cuddle up baby Keep it all out of sight Cuddle up baby Sleep with all out of sight Cuddle up baby Keep it all out of sight Undercover Undercover Undercover Keep it all out of sight Undercover of the night All the young men they've been rounded up And sent to camps back in the jungle And people whisper people double-talk And once proud fathers act so humble All the young girls they have got the blues They're heading on back to Center 42 Keep it undercover Keep it all out of sight Keep it undercover Keep it all out of sight Undercover Keep it all out of sight Undercover Keep it all out of sight Undercover of the night Down in the bars the girls are painted blue Done up in lace, done up in rubber The John's are jerky little G.I. Joe's On R&R from Cuba and Russia The smell of sex, the smell of suicide All these things I can't keep inside Undercover Keep it all out of sight Undercover of the night Undercover of the night Undercover of the night Undercover Undercover Undercover of the night |
