The Supremes Together Lyrics
1.Ain't Nothing Like The Real Thing

(nickolas ashford/valerie simpson)

Ain't nothing like the real thing, baby
Ain't nothing like the real thing
Ain't nothing like the real thing, baby
Ain't nothing like the real thing

I got your picture hangin' on the wall
It can't see or come to me when i call your name
I realize it's just a picture in a frame

I read your letters when you're not near
But they don't move me
And they don't groove me like when i hear
Your sweet voice whispering in my ear

Ain't nothing like the real thing, baby
Ain't nothing like the real thing

I play the game, a fantasy
I pretend i'm not in reality
I need the shelter of your arms to comfort me

No other sound os quite the same as your name
No touch can do half as much to make me feel better
So let's stay together

I got some memories to look back on
And though they help me when you phone
I'm well aware nothing can take the place of being there

So let me get the real thing
So let me get the real thing
Ain't nothing like the real thing, baby
Ain't nothing like the real thing
Ain't nothing like the real thing, baby
Ain't nothing like the real thing


2.Can't Take My Eyes Off You

(b. crewe/b. gaudio)

You're just too good to be true
Can't take my eyes off of you
You'd be live heaven to touch
I wanna hold you so much

At long last love has arrived
And i thank god i'm alive
You're just to good to be true
Can't take my eyes off of you

You're just too way that i stare
There's nothing else to compare
The sight of you leaves me weak
There are no words left to speak

But if you feel like i feel
Please let me know that it's real
You're just to good to be true
And my baby
Can't take my eyes off of you

I love you baby
And if it's quite all right
I need you baby
To warm the lonely night
I love you baby
Trust in me when i say

Oh, baby baby
Don't bring me down, i pray
Oh pretty baby
Now that i found you, stay
Let me love you, baby
Let me love you, baby

You're just too good to be true
Can't take my eyes off of you
You'd be live heaven to touch
And i wanna hold so much

At long last love has arrived
And i thank god i'm alive
You're just to good to be true
Can't take my eyes off of you

I love you baby
And if it's quite all right
I need you baby
To warm the lonely night
I love you baby
Trust in me when i say

Oh, pretty baby
Don't bring me down, i pray
Oh pretty baby
Now that i found you, stay


3.For Better Or Worse


4.I'll Be Doggone

(wm. robinson/w. moore/m. tarplin)

Well, i'll be doggone if i wouldn't work all day
And i'll be doggone if i wouldn't bring you my pay
But if i ever caught you running around
Blowing my money all over this town

Then i wouldn't be doggone
Hey, hey! i'd be long gone
Then i wouldn't be doggone
I'd be long gone

Now hey, hey, hey!
I'll be doggone if you ain't a pretty thing
And i'll be doggone if you ain't warm as a breath of spring
And if we live to be a hundred years old
If you ever let that spring turn cold

Then i wouldn't be doggone
Hey! i'd be long gone
Oh i wouldn't be doggone
I'd be long gone

Now did you hear what i say ?
Well now what i say
Oh, believe me well, every woman should try
To be what ever has man wants her to be
And i don't want much
All i want from you is for you to be true to me

Well, i'd be doggone if love ain't a man's best friend
Oh, baby, and i'll be doggone if you ain't the loving end
Though i know you make me feel like no baby could
If i ever found out that you're no good

Then i wouldn't be doggone
Hey, hey, hey, i'd be long gone
Well i wouldn't de doggone baby
I'd be long gone


5.My Guy, My Girl

(wm. robinson/r. white)

Nothing you could say
Could tear me away from my guy (my guy)
Nothing you could do
'cause i'm stuck like glue to my guy
I'm sticking to my guy like a stamp to a letter
Like birds of a feather
We stick together
I'm telling you from the start
I can't be torn apart from my guy

I've got sunshine on a cloudy day
When it's cold outside
I've got the month of may
I guess you say
What in the world will make me feel this way?
My girl, talking 'bout my girl

No handsome face could ever take the place of my guy

I've got so much, so much, so much honey
That the bees envy me
I guess you say
What in the world will make me feel this way?

There's not a man today
Who could take me away from my guy (my guy)

I don't need money, fortune or fame

There's nothing you can buy
Could make me tell a lie to my guy
There's nothing you can do
Could make me untrue to my guy

I guess you say
What in the world will make me feel this way?

There's not a man today
Who could take me away from my guy (my guy)
Nothing you can say could tear me away from my guy


6.Sing A Simple Song


7.Stubborn Kind Of Fellow


8.The Weight

(jamie robertson)

I pulled in to nazareth, was feeling 'bout half past dead
I just need some place where i could lay my head
Hey mister, can you tell me where a man might find a bed?
He just grinned and shook my hand
'no' was all he said

Take a load off, fanny
Take a load for free
Take a load off, fanny
And you put the load right on me

I picked up my bag, i went looking for a place to hide
When i saw carmen and the devil walking side by side
I said 'hey carmen, come on, let's go downtown'
She said 'i gotta go but my friend can stick around'

Take a load off, fanny
Take a load for free
Take a load off, fanny
And you put the load right on me

Go down miss moses, there's nothing that you can say
It's just old luke, waiting on the judgement day
'well, luke my friend, what about young anna-lee?'
He said 'do me a favour son, won't you stay and keep anna-lee
company?'

Take a load off, fanny
Take a load for free
Take a load off, fanny
And you put the load right on me

Catch a cannonball now to take me down the line
My bag is sinking low and i do believe it's time
To get back to miss fanny, i know she's the only one
Who sent me here with her regards for everyone

Take a load off, fanny
Take a load for free
Take a load off, fanny
And you put the load right on me

Take a load off, fanny
Take a load for free
Take a load off, fanny
Put the weight on me

Take a load off, fanny
Put the weight on me


9.Uptight(Everything's Alright)

(s. moy/s. judkins/h. cosby)

Baby, everything is all right
Uptight, out of sight
Baby, everything is all right
Uptight, out of sight

I'm a poorman's son from across the railroad tracks
The only shirt i own is hangin' on my back
But i'm the envy of every single guy
Since i'm the apple of my girl's eye

When we go out stepping on the town
For a while my money's low and my suit's out of style
But it's all right if my clothes aren't new
Out of sight because my heart is true
She says baby everything is all right
Uptight, out of sight
Baby, everything is all right
Uptight, clean out of sight

Baby, everything is all right
Uptight, out of sight
I'm a pearl of a girl
I guess that's what you might say
I guess her folks brought her up that way
The right side of the tracks
She was born and raised
In a great big old house full of butlers and maids
She says give her the things
That money can buy but i'll never
Never never make my baby cry
And it's all right
What if i can't do
Out of sight because my heart is true
She says baby everyt¬hing is all right
Uptight, clean out of sight
Baby, everything is all right
Uptight, clean out of sight

No one is better than i
I know i'm just an average guy
No footfall hero or smooth don juan
Got empty pockets
You see i'm a poor man's son
