Ray Charles - Deja Vu Definitive Gold (2007) by Ray Charles (보컬) on maniadb.com

Hey everybody
Let's have some fun
You only live but once
And when you're dead you're done

So let the good times roll
I said, "Let the good times roll"
I don't care if you're young or old
You oughtta get together and let the good times roll

Don't sit there mumbling
Talkin' trash
If you want to have a ball
You got to go out and spend some cash

And let the good times roll now
I'm talkin' about the good times
Well it makes no difference whether you're young or old
All you got to do is get together and let the good times roll

Hey y'all tell everybody, Ray Charles in town
I got a dollar and a quarter and I'm just ringing the clock
But don't let no female, play me cheap
I got fifty cents more than I'm gonna keep

So let the good times roll now
I tell y'all I'm gonna let the good times roll now
Well it don't make no difference if you're young or old
All you got to do is get together and let the good times roll

Hey no matter whether, rainy weather
If you want to have a ball
You got to get yourself together
Oh, get yourself under control, woh, and let your good times roll

Yeah

Georgia, Georgia,
The whole day through
Just an old sweet song
Keeps Georgia on my mind
I'm say Georgia
Georgia
A song of you
Comes as sweet and clear
As moonlight through the pines
Other arms reach out to me
Other eyes smile tenderly
Still in peaceful dreams I see
The road leads back to you
I said Georgia,
Ooh Georgia, no peace I find
Just an old sweet song
Keeps Georgia on my mind
Other arms reach out to me
Other eyes smile tenderly
Still in peaceful dreams I see
The road leads back to you
Georgia,
Georgia,
No peace, no peace I find
Just this old, sweet song
Keeps Georgia on my mind
I said just an old sweet song,
Keeps Georgia on my mind

One of these days, and it won't be long,
You're gonna look for me and I'll be gone
'Cause I believe (I believe, yes I believe)
I say I believe right now (I believe, yes I believe)
Well I believe to my soul now,
You're tryin' to make a fool of me (I believe it, I believe it)
Well you're goin' 'round here with your head so hard,
I think I'm gonna have to use my rod
'Cause I believe (I believe, yes I believe)
I say I believe right now (I believe, yes I believe)
Well I believe to my soul now
You're tryin' to make a fool of me (I believe it, I believe it)
Last night you were dreaming and I heard you say
"Oh, Johnny" when you know my name is Ray
That's why I believe right now(I believe, yes I believe)
I say I believe right now (I believe, yes I believe)
Well I believe to my soul now
You're tryin' to make a fool of me (I believe it)

I'm gonna love you, like nobody's loved you
Come rain or come shine
High as a mountain, deep as a river
Come rain or come shine

I guess when you met me
It was just one of those things
But don't you ever bet me
'Cause I'm gonna be true if you let me

You're gonna love me, like nobody's loved me
Come rain or come shine
We'll be happy together, unhappy together
Now won't that be just fine

The days may be cloudy or sunny
We're in or out of the money
But I'm with you always
I'm with you rain or shine

There's a bright golden haze on the meadow,
There's a bright golden haze on the meadow,
The corn is as high as an elephant's eye,
An' it looks like its climbin' clear up to the sky.

[Chorus: x2]
Oh what a beautiful morning,
Oh what a beautiful day,
I've got a wonderful feeling,
Everything's going my way.

All the cattle are standing like statues,
All the cattel are standing like statues,
They don't turn their heads as they see me ride by.
But a little brown mav'rick is winking her eye.

[Chorus]

All the sounds of the earth are like music,
All the sounds of the earth are like music,
The breeze is so busy it don't miss a tree,
And an ol' Weepin' Willer is laughin' at me.

Some enchanted evening, you may see a stranger,
You may see a stranger across a crowded room,
And somehow you know, you know even then,
That somehow you'll see here again and again.

Some enchanted evening, someone may be laughing,
You may hear her laughing across a crowded room,
And night after night, as strange as it seems,
The sound of her laughter will sing in your dreams.

Who can explain it, who can tell you why?
Fools give you reasons, wise men never try.

Some enchanted evening, when you find your true love,
When you hear her call you across a crowded room,
Then fly to her side and make her your own,
Or all through your life you may dream all alone.

Once you have found her, never let her go,
Once you have found her, never let her go.

Let me tell you 'bout a boy (girl) I know.
He(She) is my baby and he (she) lives next door.
Ev'ry morning 'fore the sun come up,
He (she) brings my coffee in my fav'rite cup.
That's why I know, yes, I know,
Hallelujah, I just love him (her) so.
When I'm in trouble and I have no friends,
I know hel'll (she'll) go with me until the end.
Ev'rybody asks me how I know.
I smile at them and say he (she) told me so.
That's why I know, yes, I know,
Hallelujah, I just love him (her) so.
Now if I call him (her) on the telephone,
And tell him (her) that I'm all alone,
By the time I count from one to four,I hear him (her) on my door.
In the evening when the sun does down,
When there is nobody else around,
He (she) kisses me and he (she) holds me tight.
He (And) tells me "Baby, (Daddy) ev'ry thing's all right."
That's why I know, yes, I know,
Hallelujah, I just love him (her) so.

Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more,
no more, no more, no more.
Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more.

Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more,
no more, no more, no more.
Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more.
Woo! Woman, oh woman, don't treat me so mean,
You're the meanest old woman that I've ever seen.
I guess if you said so

I'd have to pack my things and go. (That's right)

Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more, no more, no more, no more.
Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more.

Now baby, listen baby, don't-a treat me this-a way
For I'll be back on my feet some day.

Don't care if you do 'cause it's understood
you ain't got no money you just ain't no good.

Well, I guess if you say so

I'd have to pack my things and go. (That's right)

Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more,
no more, no more, no more.
Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more.


Don't you come back no more

You have loved lots of girls in the sweet long-ago
And each has meant heaven to you
You have vowed your affection to each one in turn
And have sworn to them all you'd be true

You have kissed 'neath the moon while the world seemed in tune
Then you've left her to hunt a new game
Does it ever occur to you later, my boy
That she's probably doing the same?

If you want to feel wretched and lonely and blue
Just imagine the girl you love best
In the arms of some fellow who's stealing a kiss
From the lips that you once fondly pressed

But the world moves apace and the loves of today
Flit away with a smile and a tear
So you can never tell who's kissing her now
Or just whom you'll be kissing next year

I wonder who's kissing her now
I wonder who's teaching her how
I wonder who's looking into her eyes
Breathing sighs, telling lies

I wonder who's buying the wine for lips
That I used to call mine
I wonder if she ever tells him of me
I wonder who's kissing her now

<i>Lyrics &copy; Warner/Chappell Music, Inc.</i>

(I can't stop loving you)
I've made up my mind
To live in memory of the lonesome times
(I can't stop wanting you)
It's useless to say
So I'll just live my life in dreams of yesterday
(Dreams of yesterday)
Those happy hours that we once knew
Tho' long ago, they still make me blue
They say that time heals a broken heart
But time has stood still since we've been apart
(I can't stop loving you)
I've made up my mind
To live in memories of the lonesome times
(I can't stop wanting you)
It's useless to say
So I'll just live my life in dreams of yesterday
(Those happy hours)
Those happy hours
(That we once knew)
That we once knew
(Tho' long ago)
Tho' long ago
(Still make me blue)
Still ma-a-a-ake me blue
(They say that time)
They say that time
(Heals a broken heart)
Heals a broken heart
(But time has stood still)
Time has stood still
(Since we've been apart)
Since we've been apart
(I can't stop loving you)
I said I made up my mind
To live in memory of the lonesome times
<Sing a song, children>
(I can't stop wanting you)
It's useless to say
So I'll just live my life of dreams of yesterday
(Of yesterday)

Take these chains from my heart
and set me free
Take these chains from my heart
and set me free
You've grown cold and no longer care for me
All my faith in you is gone
but the heartaches linger on
Take these chains from my heart
and set me free
Take these tears from my eyes
and let me see
Just a spark of the love that used to be
If you love somebody new,
let me find a new love, too
Take these chains from my heart
and set me free

Give my heart just a word
of sympathy sympathy
Be as fair to my heart
as you can be you can be
Then if you no longer care
for the love that's beating there
Take these chains from my heart
and set me free
Take these chains from my heart
and set me free set me free

Oh beautiful, for heroes proved,
In liberating strife,
Who more than self, our country loved,
And mercy more than life,

America, America, may God thy gold refine,
Till all success be nobleness
And every gain devined.

And you know when I was in school,
We used to sing it something like this, listen here:

Oh beautiful, for spacious skies,
For amber waves of grain,
For purple mountain majesties,
Above the fruited plain,

But now wait a minute, I'm talking about
America, sweet America,
You know, God done shed his grace on thee,
He crowned thy good, yes he did, in a brotherhood,
From sea to shining sea.

You know, I wish I had somebody to help me sing this
(America, America, God shed his grace on thee)
America, I love you America, you see,
My God he done shed his grace on thee,
And you oughta love him for it,
Cause he, he, he, he, crowned thy good,
He told me he would, with brotherhood,
(From sea to shining sea).
Oh Lord, oh Lord, I thank you Lord
(Shining sea).

1) If I give you my love, what will you give in
return, if I give you my love

Will you cause my heart to yearn , and will it bring
me sadness, with so many tears

and will it bring me gladness , all through out the
years

2) if I give you my word , will you give me your word
too

if I vow to yours, promes me that you??짠??짙????l be true

am I playing with fire , tell me are you concerned ,


if I give you my love

what wil you give in return

( SOLO PIANO, GUITAR )

am I playing with fire, tell me are you concerned

it I give you my love , what will you give in return

When I got misery, oh my where are you, honey
Honey, oh honey honey, where can you be
Whisperin' when the lights are low, to each
Teardrop on my pillow
Honey honey, honey honey, where are you
I crossed the scalds in dessert, just to be where
You are
I want you need you love you, but still we're apart
When I want to hold you, oh my where are you
Honey honey, my honey honey, where can you be

When I want to hold you, oh my where are you
Honey honey, my honey honey, where can you be

You have loved lots of girls in the sweet long-ago
And each has meant heaven to you
You have vowed your affection to each one in turn
And have sworn to them all you'd be true
You have kissed 'neath the moon while the world seemed in tune,
Then you've left her to hunt a new game.
Does it ever occur to you later my boy, that she's probably doing the same?
If you want to feel wretched and lonely and blue,
Just imagine the girl you love best
In the arms of some fellow who's stealing a kiss
From the lips that you once fondly pressed
But the world moves apace and the loves of today
Flit away with a smile and a tear,
So you can never tell who's kissing her now
Or just whom you'll be kissing next year.
I wonder who's kissing her now, I wonder who's teaching her how,
I wonder who's looking into her eyes, breathing sighs, telling lies.
I wonder who's buying the wine for lips that I used to call mine.
I wonder if she ever tells him of me, I wonder who's kissing her now.

I got the blues
I feel so lonely
I'd give the world if I could only make you understand
Yes, it surely would be grand
I'm simply wild about my baby
Ask her won't she please come home
Since she's gone I stay worried all the time
So, baby, won't you please come home?
You know your daddy's all alone
I have tried but all in vain
Never no more to call your name
Since you left, you know you broke my heart
But that will never make us part
Every hour, every day
You can hear me say
Baby, won't you please come home to your daddy?
Baby, won't you please come home?
Since you left you know you broke my heart
But that will never make us part
Every hour, every day
You can hear me say
Baby, won't you please come home to your daddy?
Baby, won't you please come home?

Well I wanta be your, lover man, so
Baby won't you let me hold your hand
Kissa me baby (all night long)
Well, kissa me baby (all night long)
Well, baby, love a dovey all the time

Well I want you right, by my side
To love and keep me satisfied
Kissa me baby (all night long)
Well, kissa me baby (all night long)
Well, baby, love a dovey all the time

Well the boys all wonderin' why, you're so hot
But they don't know jussa what you've got
Kissa me baby (all night long)
Well, kissa me baby (all night long)
Well, baby, love a dovey all the time

<piano solo>

Well tell me baby, what is your name
You've got such a fine brown frame
Kissa me baby (all night long)


Well, kissa me baby (all night long)
Well, baby, love a dovey all the time

Well I'm gonna buy you a diamond ring
Cadillac and everything
Kissa me baby (all night long)
Well, kissa me baby (all night long)
Ohh, baby, love a dovey all the time

Well I'm gonna buy a house in style
For me and my little wife and child
Kissa me baby (all night long)
Well, baby (all night long)
Ohh, baby, love a dovey all the time

<horns solo>
<scat to end>

Well, did you ever wake up in the morning?
Just about the break of day
Reach over and rub the pillow
Where your baby used to lay

[Chorus]
Hey Now!
Hey now, Hey now, Hey now, Hey now
Well, you know they make you feel so bad
That you lay right down and die

Then you put on your crying
Like you've never cried before
You even cry so loud
You give the blues to your neighbor next door

And you say, Hey Now!
Hey now, Hey now, Hey now, Hey now
Well, you know they make you feel so bad
That you lay right down and die

Well, I got the blues so bad now
I'm tellin' ya it just hurt my feet to walk now
I got the blues so bad now people
It justa hurt my tongue to talk now

[Chorus]

Then you cry Lord, Lord
Won't you hear my plea?
I know you can have mercy on everybody
So won't you please send a little bit down to me?

I gambled on your love baby and got a losing hand
I gambled on your love baby and got a losing hand
Your ways keep changing like the shifting desert sand

While I was playing fair baby you played a cheating game
While I was playing fair baby you played a cheating game
I know you don't care but I love you just the same

I thought I'd be your king baby, yes and you could be my queen
I thought I'd be your king baby, yes and you could be my queen
But you used me for your joker 쨈cause I thought you're deal was clean

The way you did me pretty baby I declare I never understand
The way you did me pretty baby I declare I never understand
I gambled on your love baby and got a losing hand

Lord have mercy,
Lord please have mercy on me
have a please Lord have mercy,
Lord please have mercy on me
Well if I've done somebody wrong,
Lord, please have mercy if you please
I used to have plenty of money,
the finest clothes in town
But bad luck and trouble overtaken me,
bound to get me down
Lord have mercy, please
please have mercy on me
Well if I've done somebody wrong,
would you a have mercy if you please

Well if I've done somebody wrong,
I declare I'll change my ways
I don't want bad luck and trouble
to follow me all my days
Lord have mercy, Please
Lord have would you mercy on me
Please Lord Please Lord
Well if I, if I've done somebody wrong,
have mercy if you please oh Lord

As I was walking down the street last night
A pretty little girl came into sight
I bowed and smiled and asked her name
She said, Hold it bud,
I don't play that game
I reached in my pocket, and to her big surprise
There was Lincoln staring her dead in the eyes.
On a greenback, greenback dollar bill
Just a little piece of paper,
coated with chlorophyll
She looked at me with that familiar desire
Her eyes lit up like they were on fire
She said, My name's Flo,
and you're on the right track,
But look here, daddy, I wear furs on my back,
So if you want to have fun in this man's land,
Let Lincoln and Jackson start shaking hands.
On a greenback, greenback dollar bill
Just a little piece of paper,
coated with chlorophyll
I didn't know what I was getting into
But I popped Lincoln and Jackson, too
I didn't mind seeing them fade out of sight,
I just knew I'd have some fun last night
Whenever you in town and looking for a thrill
If Lincoln can't get it, Jackson sure will
On a greenback, greenback dollar bill
Just a little piece of paper,
coated with chlorophyll

We went to a nightspot where
the lights were low
Dined and danced, and I was ready to go
I got out of my seat, and when Flo arose,
She said, Hold on daddy,
while I powder my nose
I sat back down with a smiling face,
While she went down to the powder place
With my greenback, greenback dollar bill
Just a little piece of paper,
coated with chlorophyll
The music stopped and the lights came on,
I looked around and saw I was all alone
I didn't know how long Flo had been gone
But a nose powder sure didn't take that long
I left the place with tears in my eyes
As I waved Lincoln and Jackson a last goodbye
On a greenback, greenback dollar bill
Just a little piece of paper,
coated with chlorophyll

Oh, come back, baby
Oh, mama, please, don't go, yeah
'Cause the way I love you
Child, you'll never know

Oh, come back, baby, yeah, yeah
Let's talk it over one more time
Oh, now, now

Well, I admit, baby
That I was wrong
Don't you know, baby?
Child, you been gone too long

Oh, come back, baby, yeah, yeah
Let's talk it over one more time
Oh, now, now

Say, if I could holler
Like a mountain jack
Yeah, yeah, oh, people
I'd call my baby back

Oh, come back, baby, woo, yeah
Let's talk it over one more time
Oh, now, now

Now one of these days, baby
And it won't be long, yeah
You're gonna look for me, child, you know
And I'll be gone

So come back, baby, yeah, yeah
Let's talk it over one more time
Oh, now, now

Ah, when I'm done
Mess again
Ho lord, and my baby
Don't understand
Well I know, ah, child
That the sun..sun gonna shine again...shine again

Well you say
That you'll always be mine
Hee, lawdy, would always
Treat me kind
But still I know, lord
That the sun.sun gonna shine again...shine again

Yey, lord baby
<Piano>

Well my skies

Oh, lawd, baby since you
Since you been away
Ah, but I know lord
That the sun.sun gonna shine again...yeah, shine again

Well, you're gonna be sorry baby
Yeah, for what you've done
Hee, lawdy, and I'll be far away

I want you people to know
This little girl of mine
I take her everywhere I go

One day I looked at my suit
My suit was new
I looked at my shoes
and they were too

And that's why I, I, I, I,
Oh, I love that little girl of mine
Oh do you know that this little girl of mine
Makes me happy when I'm sad

This little girl of mine
Loves me, even when I'm bad
She knows how to love me right down to her teeth
If she does any wrong, you know she keeps it from me

And that's why I, I, I, I,
Oh, I love that little girl of mine

Do you know that this little girl of mine
Called me last night about eight
This little girl of mine
Told me that we had a date

She said that she'd meet me at a quarter to nine
Believe it or not, but she was right on time
And that's why I, I, I, I,
Oh, I love that little girl of mine

Do you know that this little girl of mine
Knows how to dress so neat
This little girl of mine
Stops the traffic on the street

When the fellas start whistling, well I don't mind
I can't blame them, 'cause she is fine
And that's why I, I, I, I,
Oh, I love that little girl of mine

And that's why I, I, I, I,
Oh, I love that little girl of mine
