Sweet cream ladies, forward march;
The world owes you a living Sweet cream ladies, do your part, Think of what you're giving To the lost and lonely people of the night Out of need, they seek direction for their life They will love you in the darkness, Take advantage of your starkness, And refuse to recognize you in the light Sweet cream ladies, forward march; Think what you're providing Sweet cream ladies, show your starch; What's the use of hiding? Tell the socialites to look the other way; It's instinctive stimulation you convey It's a necessary function, Meant for those without compunction, Who get tired of vanilla every day (salvation army band instrumental) Sweet cream ladies forward march; Puritans ignore them Sweet cream ladies do their part; Sweet cream men adore them Let them satisfy the ego of the male Let them fabricate success to those who fail, And should penalties pursue them, When there's really credit due them, They might keep a simple fellow out of jail! (repeat & fade): Sweet cream ladies, forward march. O-o-o? |

When I think about the good love you gave me,
I cry like a baby. Living without you is driving me crazy, I cry like a baby. Well, I know now that you're not a play thing, Not a toy, or a puppet on a string. As I look back on a love so sweet now, I cry like a baby. Every road is a lonely street, I cry like a baby. I know now that you're not a play thing, Not a toy, or a puppet on a string. Today we passed on a street, And you just walked on by. My heart just fell to my feet, And once again I began to cry. When I think about the good love you gave me, I cry like a baby. Living without you is driving me crazy, I cry like a baby. I know now that you're not a play thing, I cry like a baby. As I look back on a love so sweet now, I cry like a baby. Every road is a lonely street, I cry like a baby. My heart just fell to my feet, you know I cried like a baby. You left the water running now, I cried like a baby. |

Were the nights any sweeter
The mornings any cooler, when she was here? Or was the mind grown accustomed to hearing "Good morning Dear"? Should I still feel all the sunshine That remembering brings to mind with my thoughts of her? Lord, we both know things could never be the way they were Her little girl illusions built the wall of confusion between right and wrong That stands between her and the dream I had cherished so long Now faded and tattered, once all that mattered when she was here And a mind grown accustomed to hearing "Good morning dear" Were the nights any sweeter The mornings any cooler, when she was here? Or was the mind grown accustomed to hearing "Good morning Dear"? |

…Times!
All those happy times, …Times! Days of summer love, …Times! that I held your hand, and the world stood still. Uh-huh… …Times! Those happy times, …Times! Down by the riverside, …Times! We were making love and listening to the birdies sing. Uh-huh… Now, I'm all alone; Happy times are gone, Gone just like the season Winter's on the ground, And my heart is cold; You left me without reason …Times! Those happy times, …Times! Down by the riverside, …Times! We were making love and listening to the birdies sing. Uh-huh… …Times! All those happy times, …Times! Days of summer love, …Times! that I held your hand, and the world stood still. Uh-huh… …Times! Happy, happy times… …Times! All those happy times… …Times! O-o-o… |

I met her in church!
I met her in church, on a Sunday morning She looked at me with eyes of love, as the choir sang, "Hallelujah!" Hallelujah! I met her in church I met her in church; we fell in love on a Sunday morning All at once, I heard angels singing, singing "Hallelujah!" Singing, Hallelujah! Hallelujah! I didn't find her on a Saturday night; I found her in the Sunday morning light I found her on a back row seat In a little church just down the street I met her in church, and I wed her in church Preacher Jones said, "Come here, children Good Lord willing, and the creek don't rise You're going to be happy for the rest of your life! Singing, Hallelujah! Hallelujah! I met her in church; I met her in church I found a love, I found a love! Hallelujah, I found a love? Right there in church, I found a love Singing, Hallelujah! I met her in church; I met her in church Hallelujah! |

I remember Mama and the love that she gave Kneeling by her bed side I can still hear Mama say "The people are depending on you, Shirley, don't you let them down" I remember Mama in a happy way . We went to school with holes in our shoes We didn't have much but the Lord saw us through Mama kept the family together I remember Mama in a happy way. She packed our lunch in an old greasy bag It might've seemed empty but it was more than others had It had a lot of love way down deep inside and I remember Mama in a happy way I remember Mama in a happy way. Now Mama is sleeping in the bosom of Jesus Christ Somehow I know she's smiling, smiling on us right now One day I'll see her again, how happy I will be I remember Mama in a happy way I remember Mama in a happy way. My brothers and sisters, they're living far apart Although my Mama's gone, she's right here in our hearts We're all gonna pull together and stay in the holy place I remember Mama in a happy way I remember Mama in a happy way Hey, I remember Mama in a happy way I remember Mama in a happy way ... |

I sat last night at midnight,
Blinded by the daylight, Sitting at the window, thinking about you and me I see our lives together, I see our love forever, I picture in my heart every night how it's gonna be Yea, Lord now... I see only sunshine For you and me, for years to come, now I can see it, can't you see it too? We can share the nighttime 'Til the morning's shining squints our eyes, now Years of loving me and years of loving only you I catch myself in daydreams, Thinking about the hard times we've seen We've been through it; there ain't nothing but good times ahead I walk into walls, forget things, Forget too match my clothes, my ears ring It circles in my head, did you listen to what I said, now? Yea, Lord now? I see only sunshine For you and me, for years to come, now I can see it, can't you see it too? We can share the nighttime 'Til the morning's shining squints our eyes, now Years of loving me and years of loving only you |

Yet every distance is not near So I remember every face Of every man who put me here I see my light come shining From the west down to the east Any day now, any day now I shall be released They say every man needs protection They say every man must fall Yet I swear I see my reflection Some place so high above this wall I see my light come shining From the west down to the east Any day now, any day now I shall be released Standing next to me in this lonely crowd Is a man who swears he's not to blame All day long I hear him shout so loud Crying out that he was framed I see my light come shining From the west down to the east Any day now, any day now I shall be released I see my light come shining From the west down to the east Any day now, any day now I shall be released Any day now, any day now I shall be released |

Hanging out, down the street
The same old thing we did last week Not a thing to do But talk to you Steal your car and bring it down Pick me up, we'll drive around Wish we had A joint so bad Bust a street light Out past midnight Hanging out, down the street The same old thing we did last week Not a thing to do But talk to you |

I see you walk with him,
I see you talk to him, It tears me up It tears me up And start my eyes to cryin' Oh, oh, I can't stop cryin' I see him kiss your lips, And squeeze your fingertips, It tears me up It tears me up I feel like I'm dyin' Oh, oh, I must be dyin' It's a cold, cold world I'm livin' in I turn my back and there you are with my best friend Oh sometimes we pass on the street darlin' And you looked at me and you can say, "I'm sorry, my sweet" Maybe just saying I'm sorry would be enough But then you'd look back at him, with your perfect smile, And that'd make me feel kind of rough. Oh darlin It tears me up I see you smile at him, You'll never tire of him It tears me up. It tears me up. But there ain't nothin I can do now Baby can't you see I'm still in love with you Oh, can't you see I'm still in love with you, baby Still waitin for something that I cannot have Oh, baby, nothin' tears me up so bad, Can't you see that I'm still in love with you baby Oh, that tears me up so bad now baby |

Maybe I'll write you a letter
Maybe I'll give you a call Maybe I'll drop you a line When I'm feelin' better Maybe I won't after all Somewhere a river is flowing Rollin' on into the sea Somewhere a flower is growing That don't mean anything to me Let me go Let me go Let me go Don't give me the answer 'Cause I don't wanna know Just let my heart go on beating a little bit longer I'm so young I'm so young Don't pick me up If you think you see me falling I've been waiting so long to fall Don't come to me If you think you hear me calling It won't be me that called Let me go Let me go Let me go Don't give me the answer 'Cause I don't want to know Just let my heart go on beating a little bit longer I'm so young I'm so young I'm so young I'm so young |

The city lights, the pretty lights
They can warm the coldest nights All the people going places Smiling with electric faces What they find, the glow erases And what they lose, the glow replaces And life is love In a neon rainbow A neon rainbow Moving lines, flashing signs Blinking faster than the minds Leading people with suggestions Leaving no unanswered questions You can live without direction And it don't have to be perfection And life is love In a neon rainbow A neon rainbow But in the daytime, everything changes Nothing remains the same No one smiles anymore And no one will open his door until the night time comes And then the city lights, the pretty lights They can warm the coldest nights All the people going places Smiling with the electric faces What they find, the glow erases And what they lose, the glow replaces And life is love In a neon rainbow A neon rainbow A neon rainbow |

Let's take it nice and easy It's gonna be so easy For us to fall in love Hey baby what's your hurry Relax and don't you worry We're gonna fall in love We're on the road to romance - that's safe to say But let's make all the stops along the way The problem now of course is To simply hold your horses To rush would be a crime 'Cause nice and easy does it every time |

Way down upon the old plantation
Old Master used to own me as a slave He had a little gal he'd call Lorena And we courted where the wild bananas waved For long years we courted and we were happy as one I hard worked it for my dear old master and the happiness of live had just begun No more the moon shines on Lorena As we sit and watch the coon among the corn And the possum playing on the wild banana And the old owl a-hootin' like a horn One day I went to see dear Lorena I honked and she would meet me at the gate But they took her away to old Virginie And left me to morn for her fate For years I longed to see her Thoughts of her, as ever in my head One day master read me a letter Telling me that Lorena, she was dead No more the moon shines on Lorena As we sit and watch the coon among the corn And the possum playing on the wild banana And the old owl a-hootin' like a horn But I know that her soul has gone to heaven And there she is ever free from pain To her brighter crown it is given And no more will she wear these darky's chains No more the moon shines on Lorena As we sit and watch the coon among the corn And the possum playing on the wild banana And the old owl a-hootin' like a horn |
