1.Soldier Boy
Soldiers...＊
I'm sending this one out to all the men and women overseas...
Soldiers...
In hopes that you come home to your families... S
Oldiers
Give your love just for a lifetime
Faith is just at the right time
Hope here in the night time
Daylight brings the sunshine
Comfort when you needed it
Triviality trust try chance believed it
Send you sweet things through the front door
Give you all of this and much more
Soldier boy sleep there with the angels
Soldier boy keep you safe from danger
Soldier boy we will always be together
I love you, but God he loves you better
So much war and poverty
Wished that you could rest your head on me
To kiss each others' tears away
Keep all your fears at bay
Home as soon as possible
Remind you of the golden rule
See your son and daughter's eyes
In them I keep hope alive
Soldier girl sleep there with the angels
Soldier girl keep you safe from danger
Soldier girl we will always be together
I love you, but God he loves you better
Open up your heart you'll find it's heaven sent
And all your thoughts become so pure so relevant
Exceptions in your mind you'll find immaculate
And all you winter is no longer; test for test
Our Father, who art in heaven,
Hallowed be thy Name.
Thy kingdom come.
Thy will be done,
On earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our trespasses,
As we forgive those who trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation,
But deliver us from evil.
I look around the world and all I see is so much pain and
turmoil
Got to teach your kids not to waste and destroy the earth's soil
Send our children off to war and watch them die for crude oil
Find a positive of what is blue or we are foiled
If I had one wish right now, I'd wish I could hold you
Remind you of the sweet things your mama told you
Wrap my arms around you until this has been brought to closure
Read my letters back to back; you'll always be my soldier
You can count on me to understand; in my milk and honey land
Things are really not that bad; joyous tidings don't be sad
I'll be waiting right here for you; I am well and I adore you
Unconditional my love; higher than the stars above
Soldier boy sleep there with the angels
Soldier boy keep you safe from danger
Soldier boy we will always be together
I love you, but God he loves you better

3.The Pressure
4.Can't Last A Day
If the sun in the sky disappeared from view＊
If the love in my heart baby wasn't true
If the rivers and seas would just up and dry
If the moon pass away from the deep blue sky
If I lost all my faith in the Higher Power
Tell me where would I be in the final hours
I'll be losing my way baby I'd be through
Cause I can't live a day honey without you
Can't live a day baby without your love (can't last a day)
Can't even last one day without your love
Look at me baby
Thinking that I'm real cold
Thinking that I can keep from calling
To talk to you
Filling my days with
Things to occupy my mind
My mental state playing tricks on me
But my body never lies
Trust when I tell you
Baby your love is king
I'll be alright 'til you come back
But I wish you'd never leave
Losing the battle
What's up with my defense
Can't last a day without you
This don't make no sense
Don't need your touch (I don't need your touch)
Don't need your voice (your voice)
Don't need your hands (baby)
Can't last a day (can't last a day)
Don't need your arms (I don't need your arms)
Wrapped around me (wrapped around me, baby)
Don't need your love (I don't need your lovin')
Can't last a day (can't last a day)
Don't need your lovin'
Don't need your candy kiss
Don't need your voice to remind me
These are all the things I miss
Feels kinda crazy
When my love's coming down
Try not to listen baby
But my heartbeat starts to pound
Hot like the summer
Sweet like the morning dew
I need you like the four seasons
With each day comes I love you
Where have my faith gone
You hold it in your hand
Guess I should learn to trust you
Cause I need you baby, baby, baby
Don't need your touch (I don't need your touch)
Don't need your voice (your voice)
Don't need your hands (baby)
Can't last a day (can't last a day)
Don't need your arms (I don't need your arms)
Wrapped around me (wrapped around me, baby)
Don't need your love (I don't need your lovin')
Can't last a day (can't last a day)
If the sun in the sky disappeared from view
And the love in my heart baby wasn't true
If the rivers and seas would just up and dry
If the moon pass away from the deep blue sky
If I lost all my faith in the Higher Power
Tell me where would I be in the final hours
I'll be losing my way baby I'd be through
Cause I can't live a day honey without you
Would you tell that you love me can I have you？
Would you be my baby and my one and only Would you listen
I can't last a day without you
Trust me when I tell you baby
Baby, your love is king
I'll be alright 'til you come back
But I wish you'd never leave
Losing the battle
What's up with my defense
Can't last a day without you (cause I need you baby)

6.Lover's Lane
Lyricist：Donald Shaw, Fitzroy Simpson, Lloyd Ferguson
Come on baby take a ride with me down to lover's lane
Half a mile from heaven you'll be glad you came
Words cannot describe the way if feel for you
The closest thing that I can say is that you make my love sigh
Sprinkle all your love on me, you're my fantasy
Sweet like honey to a bee, baby you arrested me
Got me sharin' all my secrets and my fantasies, come on
Make me halla baby in my solitude
Take me on a ride down lover's lane, I'll go with you
Let me take you down with me to lover's lane
Half a mile from heaven you'll be glad you came
I don't need nobody baby, no one else but you
I made a private reservation just for two, just for two
Livin' in a world with love becomes so blasé
Sometimes I think it's necessary just to break it down for you
Call me crazy baby but I'm still old fashioned in my dreams
I only need one women to set my life with me
Seems like we've always been connected whether near or far
I'd travel 'cross the galaxy to be just where you are
Make me halla sweet baby in my solitude
Take me on a ride down to lover's lane, I'll go with you
Let me take you down with me to lover's lane
Half a mile from heaven you'll be glad you came
I don't need nobody baby, no one else but you
I made a private reservation just for two, just for two
Yes, you're the best like a fantasy, I like that when you do
your thing
Play my record baby in the ring, take me down to lovers' lane
Yes, you're the sweetest thing, I feel better when you call my
name
Sweet names to give you when you do your thing to me
Let me take you down with me to lover's lane
Half a mile from heaven you'll be glad you came
I don't need nobody baby, no one else but you
I made a private reservation just for two, just for two
Down with me to lover's lane
Half a mile from heaven you'll be glad you came
I don't need nobody baby, no one else but you
I made a private reservation just for two, just for two
Break it down for me
Break it down, break it down, down for me
Break it down for me
Break it down, break it down, down for me
Lover's lane
I'm so glad I came with you baby
No hesitation, just for two, just for two
Down with me, down with me
Nobody, nobody can do it like you do
7.Marry Me
Baby, baby, baby, I, I love you, yeah＊
And just to make you love, I played the fool
But lately I been thinking something's missing, baby
With me ＆ you, what can I do？
11 years have come ＆ gone, so quickly, baby
And yet my wedding finger still is bare
All that's left is just a faded promise that you made
I guess that proves that all in love is fair
Pay attention baby, it's my turn to do the talking
This might be the last thing that I say fore I start walking
Whatcha gotta do, Whatcha gotta do, Whatcha gotta do
You got to marry me, marry me, marry me, baby, yeah
And make a respectable woman out of me
It doesn't have to be expensive, baby
Maybe something sacred, down by the shore
Just our closest friends, family, and children
And one thing more (naw, wait a minute) no, two things more
I'd like to hear the wedding march played sweetly, baby
That much for tradition in our lives
Maybe you could pop your collar when the preacher asks
Do you take this woman for your wife？
Pay attention baby, it's my turn to do the talking
This might be the last thing that I say fore I start walking
Whatcha gotta do, Whatcha gotta do, Whatcha gotta do
You got to marry me, marry me, marry me, baby, yeah
And make a respectable woman out of me, out of me, baby
You got to marry me, marry me, marry me, baby, yeah
And make a respectable woman out of me
Who's gonna love u when your hair turns gray, baby？
Who's gonna love in that special way？
Pay attention baby, it's my turn to do the talking
This might be the last thing that I say fore I start walking
Whatcha gotta do, Whatcha gotta do, Whatcha gotta do, boy, my
lord
I need something old, something new, something borrowed,
something blue
I'm talking to u boy, hear me
Whatcha gotta do, Whatcha gotta do, Whatcha gotta do
You got to marry me, marry me, marry me, baby, yeah
And make a respectable woman out of me, out of me
Marry me, baby, you got to marry me, marry me, marry me, baby,
yeah
And make a respectable woman out of me
I don't think u heard me, I'm gon say it one more gain
Marry me, marry me, marry me, baby, yeah
And make a respectable woman out of me
8.You Baby
Boy you dropped a bomb on me a long, long time ago＊
And all I ever wanted was to love you baby
Something sacred in my life, a flame to burn, a candle bright
Known so many others in my life, none like you
No one else can make me feel the things you do
And if I had the chance to do it all again
I'd do it 'cause you've always been my true love and my best
friend
You baby, you baby, you baby
(All I ever wanted was)
You baby, you baby, you baby
(All I ever needed baby)
You baby, you baby, you baby
(Understand me child)
You baby, you baby, you baby
(Hear me talking to you)
Looking out the window when I woke today
I wished you all the finer things the world could give you
daughter
Sunshine on your face, good health, prosperity and grace
And time to reap what you've been sowing, love and laughter
Had so many others in my life, none like you
No one else can make me feel the things you do
And if I had the chance to do it all again
I'd do it 'cause you've always been my first love and my next of
kin
You baby, you baby, you baby
(All I ever wanted was)
You baby, you baby, you baby
(All I ever needed was)
You baby, you baby, you baby
(I got the sun in the morning and the moon at night)
You baby, you baby, you baby
(I got a walk through the dark with a light so bright)
Deep inside my heart of hearts
Only heaven knows the things I pray for late at night when I'm
alone
Faith, hope, love and charity
All these things for my family
And from the moment that I wake up I say a little prayer for you
Like Aretha said, 'I say a little prayer for you.'
You baby, you baby, you baby
(All I ever wanted was)
You baby, you baby, you baby
(All I ever needed was)
You baby, you baby, you baby
(Understand me？)
You baby, you baby, you baby
(I know y'all hear me now)
All I ever wanted was a place to call my own
Just a little slice of paradise and home
I thank the Lord above for sending me your precious love
And from sunrise to sunup it's all about you baby yeah
You baby, you baby, you baby
(I got the sun in the morning and the moon at night)
You baby, you baby, you baby
(I got a walk through the dark with a light so bright)
You baby, you baby, you baby
(I got a joy and a happiness I've never known)
You baby, you baby, you baby
(I've got a love in my life and my own sweet home)

10.What U Got 4 Me

12.Congo Square
Sundays was better than other days＊
Mondays through Saturdays
Sundays we danced like there's no tomorrow
Duke (Ellington) played piano in Storyville
We sang the Blues round midnight until...
The sun came up and we'd improvise
Congo Square on a dope patoi, Congo Square on a dope patoi
Congo Square on a dope patoi, all eyes open on Yeshua (Jesus)
Lester (Young) was there, so was Ms. Badu
Louie (Armstrong) played turmpet on West End Blues
Ain't that Jill Scott with my sweet Aunt Nancy (Wilson)
Sassy (Sarah Vaughn) and Ella (Fitzgerald) start scattin' now
They start a frenzy there in the crowd
Sistahs has always been so resilient
Congo Square on a dope patoi, Congo Square on a dope patoi
Congo Square on a dope patoi, all eyes open on Yeshua (Jesus)
Ain't no filet gumbo babe without the rue
Ain't no joyous feelings without payin' dues
I'm gonna tie my pink bandana on
'Cause what don't kill me make me strong
Sing my Billie (Holiday) 'Strange Fruit' song
And dig my roots up... Congo Square
(Dig this man)
Sundays was really the only days
That took the place of the lonely days
Sundays we looked to the new horizions
I see the light at the end of the tunnel sir
Jazz and Blues born of the slave gospel
Black angels pick the white fiels of cotton
Congo Square on a dope patoi, Congo Square on a dope patoi
Congo Square on a dope patoi, all eyes open on Yeshua (Jesus)
Ain't no filet gumbo babe without the rue
Ain't no joyous feelings without payin' dues
I'm gonna tie my pink bandana on
'Cause what don't kill me make me strong
Sing my Billie (Holiday) 'Strange Fruit' song
And dig my roots up... Congo Square... Congo Square
Congo Square... Congo Square
(Party 'til the sun come up)
(Play that piano man)
13.Harlem Blues
Uptown Harlem Brown＊
Give me a Blues
Yeah, that's what I'm talking 'bout
Fell in love with the Harlem Blues,
Even though he was a Moulin Rouge,
Hazel eyes seems to be unfair,
Cajun moon makes me stop and stare,
Gotta reach up to touch the ground,
Blaze my box, embrace the sounds,
Tell me boy where do you dance？
Should I run or take the chance？
You're so pretty baby and I know just what to do... .
Harlem Blues, Harlem Blues,
Lost my mind on a Harlem Brown,
Savoir faire, it was a man about town,
Fine as wine when he puts on the riffs,
Sets the mood indigo with his lips,
I been down that road before,
What I say？ And furthermore,
I had myself a Romeo,
And I dropped it on him nice and slow,
Met him down on Bourbon Street,
I guess you know the rest... .
Harlem Blues, Harlem Blues,
The way you move give me a Harlem Blues,
The way you light my fuse, what a girl supposed to do？
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh got me all over you,
Baby it's tried and true,
Give me a Harlem Blues,
Guess who I saw today？
Casanova Brown,
Gave me the blues in my left thigh,
Get on down,
Get so weak when he kiss you,
I'm undone, I got issues,
Oh and yes did I mention,
If he played he'd be Kenton？
He's so fine, he's so mellow,
In his eyes, greens and yellows,
And when he starts and love me,
Rainy days become sunny,
You're so pretty baby and I know just what to do... .
Harlem Blues, Harlem Blues,
Do you understand my blues？
Walk that walk blues,
I don't need nobody need to hear me a Harlem, Harlem Blues
14.Black Cool
15.Ms. Coretta
16.The Rose N' Thorn
Lyricist：Mary C. Brockert, Terri Carrington Lyne
Still my heart the dawn is filled with tears
I never thought that I would find you here
Wait for me, be merciful, be kind
Embrace the joy in pain when love is blind
And if you cry just know that I would never say goodbye
If you speak of me just by chance
Or hear me calling through your next romance
I am the thorn that wants to be the closest to the rose you are
Kind of blue, be virtuous at best to know the pain of too much
tenderness
And if you cry just know that I could never tell a lie
If you hear my voice just by chance
Or feel me touch you in a lover's dance
I am the thorn that wants to be the closest to the rose you are
I am the thorn that wants to be the closest to the rose you are
And if you cry just know that I would never say goodbye
If you speak of me just by chance
Or hear me calling through your next romance
I am the thorn that wants to be the closest to the rose you are
I am the thorn that has to be the closest to the rose you are
It's always darkest just before the dawn
