Let them talk if they want to
Talk don't bother me I want the whole wide world to know That I love you so Let them whisper For they know not what's Between you and I I'll keep on loving you Until the day I die They're tryin' to breakup our romance But they don't have a chance We have the kind of love That's so strong We'll be together from now on Idle gossip comes from the devil's workshop But true love will make it stop I want the whole wide world to know That I love you so They're envious of ev'rything we do But it's so wonderful (wonderful) When you love some one (love someone) When that someone loves you. |

I never saw nothing like that before in my life
I hope I never see it again There were all these people Oh just waiting there THere were all these people Oh just waiting there for someone But nobody came, nobody saw Cause nobody wanted to to go there at all There were all these people Oh just waiting I was so damned scared I held hands with a crazy man I was so damned scared I held hands and bonded with the crazy man But he wasn't crazy, and I wasn't scared We were just brothers to sit there and stare All all those people waiting there Well the first two people I saw We saw the way that they cared I grabbed my brothers hand Neither one of us could stand the shame Two of them, the two of us Lying in water Living in dust So were all these people waiting there Well the guy that showed me home Was by a stranger's hand And I carried on a moment Just for the soul of a country man I never knew you, I never stayed I ain't gonna leave it Nothing to pay All those people waiting there Well the next time I went down There was no one there And I wondered if my brother Had bought another piece of land One day a stranger, one day my kin I thought I'd never see him again Just like all those people waiting there |

Now's the time for all good men
to get together with one another. We got to iron out our problems and iron out our quarrels and try to live as brothers. And try to find a piece of land without stepping on one another. And do respect the women of the world. Remember you all have mothers. We got to make this land a better land than the world in which we live. And we got to help each man be a better man with the kindness that we give. I know we can make it. I know darn well we can work it out. Oh yes we can, I know we can can Yes we can can, why can't we? If we wanna get together we can work it out. And we gotta take care of all the children, the little children of the world. 'cause they're our strongest hope for the future, the little bitty boys and girls. We got to make this land a better land than the world in which we live. And we got to help each man be a better man with the kindness that we give. I know we can make it. I know darn well we can work it out. Oh yes we can, I know we can can yes we can can, why can't we? If we wanna, yes we can can. |

Someday
You'll want me like I want you But I'll be gone With somebody new Someday You will cry the way I did You'll hang your head But tears can't be hid You'll walk the floor day and night Not a thing will be going right Your nerves will keep you in despair You'll be pulling out your hair Someday Love will get you down you'll see You're gonna suffer The way you done for me |

Oh my Nola
Same old song and dance Don't let her catch you with a care She won't let you down If you give yourself a chance Oh won't you let me take you there Oh my Nola Never goes away Look for her crescent inner moon And if you listen When you walk the du Veinz Carre You'll hear that gentle Creole tune How proud would Louis and Mahalia be To know that their memory was safe with me Oh my Nola Old and true and strong Just like a tall magnolia tree Sit me in the shade And I'm right where I belong Oh my New Orleans Wait for me How proud would Satchmo and Mahalia be To know that their memory was safe with me Oh my Nola Old and true and strong Just like a tall magnolia tree Sit me in the shade And I'm right where I belong Oh my New Orleans Wait for me |
