Dusty Springfield Dusty In Memphis Lyrics
1.All The King's Horses

(unknown)

Mmm, my friends keep telling me to pull myself together
They try to cheer my up but it's not gettin' better
They say that time will pass and i'll love again some day
But time is standing still ever since you went away

Now, all the king's horses and all the king's men
You'll never get me back together again
'cause i just fall apart each time i look at you
No, all the king's and all the king's men
Are never gonna make me smile again
How can i smile just knowin' you're with somebody new?, ooh

You had my hopes so high i guess they had to tumble
And when you left my dream my world began to crumble
No woman ever found the only missing part
When you left me behind don't you know you took my heart?

Now, all the king's horses and all the king's men
You'll never get me back together again
'cause i just fall apart each time i look at you, yes i do, now
All the king's and all the king's men
You're never gonna make me smile again
How can i smile just knowin' you're with somebody new?, ooh,
yeah, ooh, ahh, ha

All the king's horses and all the king's men
You'll never get me back together again
'cause i just fall apart each time i look at you, yes i do
I said, all the king's and all the king's men
Are never gonna make me smile again
How can i smile just knowing you're with somebody new?, yeah

All the king's horses and all the king's men
You'll never get me back together again
And i just fall apart each time


2.Breakfast In Bed

(eddie hinton / donnie fritts)

You've been cryin'
Your face is a mess
Come in baby
You can dry the tears on my dress
She's hurt you again
I can tell
Oh, i know that look so well

Don't be shy
You've been here before
Pull your shoes off, lie down
And i will lock the door

And no-one has to know
You've come here again
Darling it will be
Like it's always been before
Come on over here

Breakfast in bed
And a kiss or three
You don't have to say you love me
Breakfast in bed
Nothing need be said
Ain't no need

What's your hurry?
Please don't eat and run
You can let her wait, my darling
It's been so long
Since i've had you here
You will come again
Darling it will be
Like it's always been before
Hey child

Breakfast in bed
And a kiss or three
You don't have to say you love me
Breakfast in bed
Nothing need be said

Breakfast in bed
And a kiss or three
You don't have to say you love me
Breakfast in bed
Nothing need be said, yeah
You don't have to


3.Cherished

(kenny gamble / leon huff)

I said love ain't no good unless it's cherished, mmm
I said love can't be good unless it's cherished, oh no

You and me
We gotta get something understood
We gotta separate all the bad from the good
We gotta do all the things we thought we never could
It's time to wake up
Our love is on the brink
And we've had enough time to think

Can't you see that love can't be no good unless it's cherished?
Oh, baby, believe me, love can't be no good unless it's
cherished, mmm, mmm

You and me
Should never let nothing come between
We gotta separate all the fat from the lean
We got to stick together like we're a team
It's time to wake up
Our love, our love is on the brink, yeah
We've had enough time to think

I said, love can't be good unless it's cherished, no, baby
True love, just no good unless it's cherished, ooh, baby

Baby, baby, baby
Now, our love is on the brink
And we've had enough time to think, yes

I said, love can't be no good unless it's cherished
Believe me, love can't be good unless it's cherished
Oh, no good, no good, no good
Love, can't be no good, no good, no good, no good, no good, no
good
I said, love can't be no good unless it's cherished
You know it, baby, oh i


4.Don't Forget About Me(Memphis Version)

(gerry goffin & carole king)

Baby, i know you've got to go
I have no right
To tell you not to go

The road just isn't there for us
There never was a prayer for us
You know how much i want you now
I don't wanna stay here
Give you fits and haunt your mind
And for now, baby
Since you're free to choose again
It's your life to win or lose again

But, hey, just don't forget about me, now, baby
Baby, please, just don't forget about me, now, baby
Today i cannot borrow
A minute of your tomorrow
Don't let it cause you sorrow
Come on baby, please
Just don't forget about me, now, baby
Just don't forget about me

Ah, someday, our paths may cross again
Baby, then we'll find the kind of love
We've lost again
But for now, i've got to let you go
It's ourselves we've got to get to know

Ah, no, don't forget about me, now, baby
Oh, please, don't forget about me, now, baby
Today i cannot borrow
One minute of your tomorrow
Don't let it cause you sorrow
Got to be baby, baby
I want you now


5.Don't Forget About Me(Uk Version)

(gerry goffin / carole king)

Baby, i know you've got to go
And i have no right to tell you not to go
The road just isn't there for us
There never was a prayer for us

Someday our paths may cross again
And maybe we'll find the kind of love we lost again
But now, i'll set you free to choose again
It's your life to win or lose again

Hey, don't forget about me now, baby
Baby, please, don't forget about me now, baby
Today i cannot borrow a minute of your tomorrow
But don't let it cause you sorrow
Please, don't forget about me now, baby
Don't forget about me

Someday, our paths may cross again
And maybe we'll find the kind of love we lost again
But now, i've got to let you go
It's ourselves we got to get to know

Baby, please, don't forget about me now
Baby, please, please don't forget about me, baby
Ooh, baby, please, oh
Hey, don't forget about me now, baby
Baby, please, please don't forget about me
Ah-ha, yeah, ooh


6.Goodbye(Uk Song)

music:j.s. bach
lyrics:norma tanega)

Go my love
Go softly goodbye
Life is like an empty dream
Lost in the sky
I see through my tears
The sadness of years
The shadows of happiness passing
I will miss the sun when you go
I will miss the mornings of laughter and tears
Your hello and more than this as you go

Gone is the light from the day
Gone is the pleasure of night
And when you go no more welcoming love
Or a dream
So goodbye my love
Goodbye

So my love
Go gently goodbye
Memories of loving you never will die
My longing will pass
My loving will last
The whispers of time never dimming
I will miss your touch when you go
I will miss the wonder of magical love
As it grows and more than this when you go

Gone is the warmth of your smile
Now is the coldness of snow
Gone when you go is the welcome of love
And the dream
So goodbye, my love
Goodbye


7.Goodbye(Us Song)

(roland chambers / leonard pakula)

Goodbye, bye, bye, bye
Is all he said to me
Goodbye, bye, bye, bye
Is all he said to me

I should have known
When i looked into his eyes
He wasn't serious
I should have seen through his disguise
He led me to believe
That he would never leave
And i thought that i blew his mind

He said goodbye, bye, bye, bye
Is all he said to me
Bye, bye, bye, bye
Is all he said to me

I sure get discouraged
When i think of what a fool i've been
I don't know where he's at
And i don't know where he's been
So how can he leave me?
Hurt and deceive me
When i make a mistake
This is all he had to kept on saying

Goodbye, bye, bye, bye
Is all he said to me
Goodbye, bye, bye, bye
Is all he said to me, mmm

So how can he leave me?
Hurt and deceive me
When i make a mistake
This is all he had to kept on saying

Goodbye, ye, ye, ye
Is all he said to me
Goodbye, bye, bye, bye
Is all he said to me, yeah, ooh, ooh
Goodbye, bye, goodbye, bye
I said goodbye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye,
Bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye


8.Have A Good Life Baby

(unknown)

If we knew a way to go back through time
To the place where love was lost
We could take each other's hand again
And wander back across
But we always seem to end up here
Tryin' not to say goodbye
Baby, we don't have to say the words
Words can sometimes make you cry

Ooh, have a good life baby
Take good care of yourself
Have a good life baby
Be happy with someone else, mmm, mmm, ooh, hoo, hoo, hoo, mmm

This time we really will let go
And we won't look back again
But pretend the sun is on a rise
When the day is at an end
So, let's kiss and wish each other love
Over one more sip of wine
Oh, honey, try to give me one last smile
And i'll leave you one of mine

Ooh, hoo-oo, have a good life baby
Take good care of yourself, ah, ha, ha
Have a good life baby
Be happy with somebody else, ah, ha, oh

Ooh, hoo, hoo, hey
Have a good life baby
Take good care of yourself, ahh
Have a good life baby
Hope you'll be happy with somebody else, oh, baby

Have a good life baby
Take good care of yourself, ah, ha, ho
Have a good life baby


9.I Can't Make It Alone

(gerry goffin / carole king)

Now you know me
You know how proud i am
And what i'm gonna tell you now
Won't be easy to say

Before i left your side
Ooh, i was so happy then
But i've been so lonely
Since i've been away
Oh, baby

I've tried and i know i can't make it alone
It's such a hard way to go
I just can't make it alone
There's something in my soul
That will always
Lead me back to you

What can i say now?
Sorry is just not good enough
I couldn't blame you if you hurt me now
The way i hurt you then

But who else can i turn to?
Oh, baby, i'm begging you
Won't you reach out for my dying soul?
And make me live again
Oh, baby, it's so hard

I've tried and i know i can't make it alone
It's such a hard way to go
I just can't make it alone
There's something in my soul
That will always
Lead me back to you

Baby, help me
I've tried and i know i can't make it alone
It's such a hard way to go
And i can't make it alone
There's something in my soul
That will always
Lead me back to you

Oh, help me
(please help me)
You know i need you
(i need you)
I'm saying that i need you
I just can't make it by myself
(i just can't make it by myself)
I just can't make it all alone
(i just can't make it all alone)
I just can't make it by myself
(i just can't make it by myself)
Come on baby


10.I Don't Want To Hear It Anymore

(randy newman)

In my neighbourhood
We don't live so good
The rooms are small
And the buildings made of wood

I hear the neighbours talking 'bout you and me
I guess i heard it all
'cause the talk is loud
And the walls are much too thin

He don't really love her
That's what i heard them say
He sure wasn't thinking of her today, oh no
(he wasn't thinking of her today)

I saw them in the front yard
Said the boy in room 149
He was talking to a girl i've never seen before
And standing there together, oh they looked so good

I don't want to hear it anymore
(i don't want to hear it)
I don't want to hear it anymore
(anymore)
'cause the talk just never ends
And the heartache soon begins
The talk is so loud
And the walls are much too thin

Ain't it sad, said the woman down the hall
That when a nice girl falls in love
Ain't it just too bad that she had to fall
For a boy who doesn't care for her at all?
(it's so sad)
I don't want to hear it anymore
(i don't want to hear it)
I just can't stand to hear it anymore
(anymore)
'cause the talk just never ends
And the heartache soon begins
The talk is so loud
And the walls are much too thin

I don't want to hear it anymore
(can't stand to hear it)
(don't want to hear it)
I just can't stand to hear it anymore
(don't talk about it)
(can't stand to hear it)
Oh, baby, baby
I just can't stand


11.I Found My Way

(gil slavin / mike soles)

In my life
I have known many sorrows
In my time
Troubles have shadowed my way

And my path has been covered
With teardrops from my eyes
Like the cold, cold rain
That comes in the fall

Oh, but i have found my way through the darkness
And nobody but you could have brought me out, mmm, yes
You fill my life with sunshine
You always bring me gladness
And nobody but you could have brought me out

I've seen men on their knees come crawling
And my friends begging a lot all of their days
And i have found my, found the road down the mountain, you know
i have
And the cold wind's blowing through my hair, yeah

You know, that i have found my way through the darkness
And nobody but you could have brought me out
You fill my life with sunshine, oh, yes you do
(you always bring me gladness)
Said, nobody but you could have brought me out, yeah

I found my way through the darkness
Said, nobody but you could have brought me out, oh
You fill, you fill it with sunshine, oh, oh
I have found, yeah


12.I'll Be Faithful

(ned albright / mike soles / steve soles)

I would be your water when your thirsty mouth was dry
I would be your sunshine when clouds are in the sky
I would stand that close beside you
And be your only friend
And i have promised love forever
There will be no end

Ooh, hoo, i'll be faithful
Ooh, hoo, i'll be true, too
Ooh, hoo, i'll be faithful, yes i will now
Ooh, hoo, oh my, true to you

Now i would be your music if you would like a song
I would sleep beside you when the winter's cold and long
I would be the pole to guide you, never would i bend
And i have promised love forever
There will be no end

Ooh, hoo, i'll be faithful, oh, yeah
Ooh, hoo, i'll be true too, mmm
Ooh, hoo, i'll be faithful, oh, yeah
Ooh, hoo, oh my, true to you, ooh, hoo

I have promised love forever
There will be no end

Ooh, hoo, i'll be faithful, oh, yeah
Ooh, hoo, i'll be true, too
Ooh, hoo, i'll be faithful, yes i will
Ooh, hoo, oh my, true to you


13.In The Land Of Make Believe

(burt bacharach / hal david)

In the land of make believe
You're mine tonight
Although you are far away
In the land of make believe
I'm holding you tight

The silver moon is shining above
And there's love in your eyes
And i'm kissing you
Like i used to do
Yesterday in paradise

I've been living in the land of make believe
Since you've been gone
I need you so much
That without your love
I must deceive myself
To go on

Your loving hand caresses my face
We embrace tenderly
Never will we part
Deep down in my heart
You are always here with me
You are always here with me
In the land of make believe
In the land of make believe
In the land of make believe

Your loving hand caresses my face
We embrace tenderly
Never will we part
Deep down in my heart
You are always here with me
You are always here with me
In the land of make believe
In the land of make believe
In the land of make believe
In the land of make believe


14.Just A Little Lovin'

(barry mann / cynthia weil)

Just a little lovin'
Early in the mornin'
Beats a cup of coffee
For starting off the day

Just a little lovin'
When the world is yawnin'
Makes you feel wake up feeling
Good things are coming your way

This old world
Wouldn't be half as bad
It wouldn't be half as sad
If each and everybody in it had, yeah

Just a little lovin'
Early in the mornin'
That little extra somethin'
To kinda see them through

Nothing turns the day on
Really gets it dawnin'
Like a little bit of lovin'
From some lovin' someone like you

This old world
Wouldn't be half as bad
It wouldn't be half as sad
If each and everybody in it had

Just a little lovin'
Early in the mornin'
(just a little lovin')
(when the world is yawnin')
Just a little bit of lovin' ah
Oh, in the morning
Nothing turns the day on
Really gets it dawnin'
Make a little bit of lovin'
It's so good, it's so good


15.Just One Smile

(randy newman)

Can't i cry a little bit?
There's nobody to notice it
Can't i cry if i want to?
No-one cares

Why can't i pretend
That you'll love me again?
All i had has been taken from me
Now i cry tears that never become me

Just one smile means forgiving
Just one kiss, the hurt's all gone
Just one smile to make my life worth living
A little dream to build my world upon

How i wish i could say
All the things i want to say
If some way, you could see what's in my heart
Oh, baby

I don't ask for much
A look, a smile, a touch
Try to forget
Lord knows, i'm trying
It's so hard to forget
When your whole world you know is dying

Just one smile means forgiving
Just one kiss, the hurt's all gone
Just one smile to make my life worth living
A little dream to build my world upon

Just one smile please forgiving
Just one kiss, hurt's all gone
Just one smile to make my life worth living
A little dream to build my world upon
Just one smile


16.Live Here With You

(gil slavin / mike soles)

You ask me to live here with you
If i could, love, you know i would
I can't give you my heart or my hand though you want it
I can't give you the love i know i should

And i tell you there's nobody else
It's not you, i'm just afraid
Will you show me the way?
So, i'm sure that i love you
Show me how true love is made

If i could i would give you my heart and my hand
I'd give you the sea, i'd give you the land
If i found love to give you
I would give you my life, mmm, mmm, mmm, ooh, hoo, hoo, mmm

In my sorrow i've called out your name
In my dreams i've known only you
Is this love that i feel?
Am i foolin' myself when i wish for my dreams to come true?

If i could i would give you my heart and my hand
I'd give you the sea, i'd give you the land
If i found love to give you
I'd give you my life, mmm, mmm, mmm, ooh, hoo, hoo, mmm

All the pain on my life would be gone
Oh, my love, if you only knew
You'd be kissin' away all the tears of my joy
When you ask me to live here with you


17.Love Shine Down

(unknown)

Ooh, hoo, once love was a fire
That came and lit my way
I felt the fire die about a month ago
And now i look at my man
And i know he's goin' away

And now, i want that man
Mmm, i need that man
And i got to get back into his heart
I said love shine down on me
Love shine down on me
Love shine, light my way back into his heart

I, i stood beside him
When nobody else, nobody wanted to
Well i've been down, yes i have
But i've never, never been broken
'til the day that he told me
The sweet lovin' life was through

I said, i want that man
Ooh, i need that man
And i got to get back into his heart
I said love shine down on me
Love shine down on me
Love shine, light my way back into his
Love shine
Oh, love shine
I said shine, shine, shine
Oh, down on me
I want it, yes, i need it
Oh, ho, oh, ho
I said love shine down on me
Love shine, light my way back into


18.Make It With You

(david gates)

Ah, ha, have you ever tried
Really reaching out for the other side?
I may be climbing up rainbows
But baby, here goes
Ooh, dreams, they're for those who sleep
Life is for us to keep
And if you're wonderin' what this all is leadin' to
I wanna make it with you
I really think that we could make it, ooh

No, you don't know me well
And every little thing only time will tell
But you believe the things that i do
And we'll see it through
Oh, life can be short or long
Love can be right or wrong
And if i choose the one i'd like to help me through
I'd like to make it with you
I really think that we could make it, yeah, yeah, ooh

Ah, ha, and if i choose the one i'd like to help me through
Ooh, hoo, i'd like to make it with you, ah, ha
Ooh, baby, ah, i wanna make it with you
Ooh, let's make it, i wanna make it with you
Ooh, baby, yeah, i wanna make it with you
Ooh, hoo, let's make it, i wanna make it with you
Ah, make it, let's make it
I wanna make it with you


19.Natchez Trace

(neil goldberg / gil slavin)

Oh, ho
He rode into virginia
Rollin' thunder, ridin' high
I was servin' table
Waitin' for that ride

My arms around his body
Well, we rode a thousand miles
He taught me how to love
He taught me how to fly, oh, ho, my

Hungry together
Racin' the weather
Into the natchez trace
Warmin' and feedin' him
All the way to cumberland, oh, ho, yes

And i had his child in memphis
And we watched him ride away
And now you know what a girl like me
Is doin' here today
I'm sorry mister, you can't stay

Hungry together
Racin' the weather
Into the natchez trace
Warmin' and feedin' him
All the way to cumberland, oh, ho, yes

And when the piper gets to play
Somebody's got to pay
And now you know what a girl like me
Is doin' here today
Oh, i'm sorry mister, you can't stay
I'm sorry mister, you can't stay

Hungry together
Racin' the weather
Into the natchez trace
Warmin' and feedin' him
All the way to cumberland, oh

When the piper gets to play
Somebody's got to pay
And now you know what a girl like me
Is doin' here today
Oh, i'm sorry mister, you can't stay
I'm sorry mister, you can't stay, oh, ho, ho, ho
Sorry mister, you can't stay

Sorry mister, you can't stay, oh, ho, ho, ho
Sorry mister, you can't stay
Sorry mister, you can't stay, no
Sorry mister, you can't stay, oh
Sorry mister, sorry mister


20.No Easy Way Down

(gerry goffin / carole king)

Your toy balloon has sailed
In the sky, love
But now it must fall
To the ground
Now your sad eyes reveal
Just how badly you feel
'cause there is no easy way down

The view from the cliffs
Must have been exciting
And up to the peaks
You were bound
Now you're stranded alone
And the past is unknown
And there is no easy way down

No it isn't very easy
When you're left on your own
No it isn't very easy
When each road you take
Is one more mistake
There's no-one to break your fall
And lead you back home, yeah

We all like to climb to the heights of love
Where our fantasy world can be found
But you must know in the end
When it's time to descend
That there is no easy way down

You know you're gonna find
There is no easy way down


21.So Much Love

(gerry goffin / carole king)

In the midst of all my darkness, baby
You came along to guide me
You took pity on a lonely girl
When you said you'd stand beside me
I'll never forget you for what you've done
I'll never turn my back on you for anyone

I got so much love to give you
Baby, i got so such love to give you
Oh, there's more than enough
To last a whole life through, yes
And it's all for you

My world was cold and so empty
And my life so unfulfilling
When i needed someone to pick me up
You were oh, so willing
Now to you it might seem a little thing
But to me it seemed you'd changed my winter to spring

(i've got so much love)
Baby, i got so such love to give you
Oh, there's more than enough
To last my whole life through, yeah
It's all for you

There's so few men nowadays
Who understand the soul of a woman
Now they're always on the take and they're
Never giving, never offering a helping hand
Oh baby, i can count on you
Whenever trouble calls
You see me through
You show your love in so many ways
I'm gonna love you for the rest of my days, yeah

I got so much love to give you
Baby, i got so such love


22.Son Of A Preacher Man

(john hurley / ronnie wilkins)

Billy-ray was a preacher's son
And when his daddy would visit he'd come along
When they gathered round and started talkin'
That's when billy would take me walkin'
A-through the back yard we'd go walkin'
Then he'd look into my eyes
Lord knows to my surprise

The only one who could ever reach me
Was the son of a preacher man
The only boy who could ever teach me
Was the son of a preacher man
Yes he was, he was, mmm, yes he was

Being good isn't always easy
No matter how hard i try
When he started sweet-talkin' to me
He'd come and tell me everything is all right
He'd kiss and tell me everything is all right
Can i get away again tonight?

The only one who could ever reach me
Was the son of a preacher man
The only boy who could ever teach me
Was the son of a preacher man
Yes he was, he was, lord knows he was

How well i remember
The look that was in his eyes
Stealin' kisses from me on the sly
Takin' time to make time
Tellin' me that he's all mine
Learnin' from each other's knowing
Lookin' to see how much we've grown

And the only one who could ever reach me
Was the son of a preacher man
The only boy who could ever teach me
Was the son of a preacher man
Yes he was, he was, oh, yes he was
He was the sweet-talking son of a preacher man
I guessed he was the son of a preacher man
Sweet-lovin' son of a preacher man
Ahh, move me


23.That Old Sweet Roll(Hi-De-Ho)

(gerry goffin / carole king)

Hi-de-ho, hi-de-hi
Gonna find me a piece of the sky
Gonna find me some of that old sweet roll
Singing hi-de-hi-de-hi-de-hi-di-ho

Listen, i've been down so low
That the bottom looked like up
Once i felt like second saves
Was enough to fill my cup
Now i've offered all i have
But it ain't no way to live
Being taken by the ones who have
The least amount to give

Singing hi-de-ho, hi-de-hi
Got to find me a piece of the sky
Gonna find me some of that old sweet roll
Singing hi-de-hi-de-hi-de-hi-de-ho

I wanna tell you
Once i met the devil
He was mighty slick
Tempted me with worldly goods
Said i could have my pick
But when he laid the paper on me
And showed me where to sign
I said 'thank you very kindly
But i'm in too great a need of mine'

Singing hi-de-ho, hi-de-hi, oh
Got to find me a piece of that sky
Gonna find me some of that old sweet roll
Singing hi-de-hi-de-hi-de-hi-de-ho, yeah

24.The Windmills Of Your Mind

round
Like a circle in a spiral
Like a wheel within a wheel
Never ending or beginning
On an ever-spinning reel
Like a snowball down a mountain
Or a carnival balloon
Like a carousel that's turning
Running rings around the moon
Like a clock whose hands are sweeping
Past the minutes of its face
And the world is like an apple
Whirling silently in space
Like the circles that you find
In the windmills of your mind

Like a tunnel that you follow
To a tunnel of its own
Down a hollow to a cavern
Where the sun has never shone
Like a door that keeps revolving
In a half-forgotten dream
Or the ripples from a pebble
Someone tosses in a stream
Like a clock whose hands are sweeping
Past the minutes of its face
And the world is like an apple
Whirling silently in space
Like the circles that you find
In the windmills of your mind

Keys that jingle in your pocket
Words that jangle in your head
Why did summer go so quickly?
Was it something that you said?
Lovers walk along a shore
And leave their footprints in the sand
Is the sound of distant drumming
Just the fingers of your hand?
Pictures hanging in a hallway
And the fragment of a song
Half-remembered names and faces
But to whom do they belong?
When you knew that it was over
You were suddenly aware
That the autumn leaves were turning
To the colour of her hair

Like a circle in a spiral
Like a wheel within a wheel
Never ending or beginning
On an ever-spinning reel
As the images unwind
Like the circles that you find
In the windmills of your mind


25.What Do You Do When Love Dies

(mary unobsky / donna weiss)

I wake up in the morning crying
I reach out for you, yeah
I make coffee for one now
Instead of for two
My days are so empty baby
There's nothing for me to do
And the night lost its meaning
The night i lost you
Help me baby

What do you when love dies?
Somebody help me, i'm losing my mind
What do you when love dies?
Somebody help me, i'm losing my mind

I run for the 1:10 uptown
The show starts at two
I'm surrounded by strangers
But i'm haunted by you
My life is without direction
Lost without you my love
The past is my shadow
My shadow is you
I ain't got nowhere to go

What do you do when love dies?
Somebody help me, i'm losing my mind
What do you do when love dies on you?
Somebody help me, i'm losing my mind, yes i am, yeah

Yeah, what do you do when love dies on you?
Somebody help me, i'm losing my mind, yeah, yeah
Somebody help me, i'm losing my mind
The past is my shadow
My shadow is you
Yeah, yeah
What do you do when love dies on you?


26.Willie And Laura Mae Jones

(tony joe white)

Willie & laura mae jones
Were our neighbours a long time back
They lived right down the road from us
In a shack just like our shack

The people worked the land together
And we learned to count on each other
When you live off the land
You don't have the time to think about another man's colour

The cotton was high and the corn was growing fine
But that was another place and another time

Sit out on the front porch
In the evening when the sun went down
Willie would play and the kids would sing
And everybody would mess around
Daddy'd bring out his guitar
And play on through the night
Every now and then ol' willie would grin and say
'hey, you play all right'
Made me feel so good

I remember the best times of all
When saturday came around
We all would stop by willie's house and say
'do y'all need anything from town?'
He'd say 'no, but why don't y'all stop on the way back through?
And i'll get laura mae, yeah, to cook up some barbecue'
And you know that's good

The cotton was high and the corn was growing fine, yes it was
But that was another place and another time

Oh, the years rolled past the land
And took back what they'd given
We all knew we had to move
If we were gonna make a living

So we all moved off
And went about our separate ways
It sure was hard to say goodbye
To willie and laura mae (jones), oh yeah

The cotton was high and the corn was growing fine, yes it was
But that was another place and another time
I remember so well
The cotton looked so fine
But that was another place and another time
And it felt so good, yes it did


27.You've Got A Friend

Lyrics:Carole King
Music:Carole King
Arranger:Carole King

When you're down and trubled
And you need some love and care
And nothin', no nothin' is goin' right
Just close your eyes and think of me
And soon i'll be there to brighten up
Yeah, even your darkest night
You just call out my name
And you know, wherever i am
I'll come a-runnin'
To see you again
Chorus :
Winter, spring, summer or fall
All you have to do is call
And i'll be there, yeah i will
You've got a freind

When the sky above you
Grows dark and full of clouds
And that old north wind
He begins to blow
Here's what you do baby
Keep your head together
And call my name out loud
And soon you'll hear me
Knockin' at your door
Oh yes i will, yes i will
You just call out my name
And you know, wherever i am
I'll come a-runnin'
To see you again

Chorus

Ain't it good to know
That you've got a freind
People can be so cold
They'll hurt you and desert you
And take your soul if you let them
Oh, don't let them

Chorus :
Winter, spring, summer or fall
All you have to do is call
And i'll be there, yes i will

You've got a freind, yes you do
You've got a freind, yes you do
Right till the end, for you
Ain't it good to know
