I guess I don't have to say this album is
dedicated to you.
Although perhaps you may not be happy,
this is what you want,
so I conceded.
I hope it makes you happy.
There's a lot of truth in it, babe.
I don't think I'll have many regrets, baby.
Things didn't have to be the way they was, baby.
You don't have the right to use the son of mine
to keep me in line.
One thing I can't do without
is the boy whom God gave to both of us.
I'm so happy, oh, for the son of mine.
So here it is, babe.
I hope you enjoy, reminisce, be happy,
think about the kisses and the joy.
But there were those other moments too,
the times that were cloudy and grey.
Bad.
But you taught me that was life.
May love ever protect you,
may peace come into your life.
Always think of me the way I was.
Ha, I was your baby.
This is what you wanted.
Here, dear, here it is.
Here, my dear, here it is.
I met a little girl, sure was fine
Pretty little thing just about blew my mind
She took me home and ahh made love to me
I knew right then and there this is where I wanted to be
Most of my life I had been all, all alone
And you're so sweet to me, don't think i'll ever roam
And then one day as time will pass
I had this feeling that our love would last
Nothing could go wrong and it seemed everything I did
Seemed to please you, all the heartaches you hid
Then one night after we made it, and we were through
That's when I decided I wanted to marry you
Do you take this woman to be your lawful wedded wife
To love, hold and cherish for the rest of your life?
I do, yes I do, I do darlin'
'Cause I love you
1964
Once you really loved me
Once I really loved you
1976
Then time would change you
As time would really change me
We thought our love would stand the test of time
And as I sing this song right now I wonder today, today
If you're a friend of mine
Cry cry cyr-I have done some crying
Woman, you have caused my tears to flow
Cry cry cry-d you cry about me?
Dou you think about the kind of love we had?
Hal le hallelejah
Hal le lu i'm free
Hal le hallelejah
Hal le lu i'm free
(crying and fade)
You know, when you say your marriage vows, they're supposed to be for real. I mean...
if you think back about what you really said, what it's all about, honor, loving and
obeying till death do us part and all. But it shouldn't be that way, it should...it
should, it should be lies because it turns out to be lies. If you don't honor what
you said, you lie to God. The words should be changed
Ooo now as I recall, we tried a million times
Again and again and again, and that isn't all
I gave my love to you each time to make amends
Suddenly I start to realize I can't make it
Pretty birds fly away, I had to leave you for my health's sake
What to do? Make you pay, for leaving you, my fine, is to pay forever
So if a fresh new love comes in, I won't say those words again
Instead I'll say I'll try to love and protect you
With all my heart as long as you want me to baby
Ooo if I love again I'm gonna try a new way this time
Memories of the things we did; some we're proud of, some we hid
So when two people have to part, sometimes it makes them stronger
Do you remember all of the fights we had?
You say you love me with all your heart
If you ever loved me will all of your heart
You'd never take $1 million to part
I really tried, you know I tried, oh baby
Although we tried, all of those promises was nothin' but lies
I really tried, you know how I tried, we really lied, didn't we baby?
And on top of that you have scared the life, my name
But I can't understand, 'cause if you love me
How could you turn me into nothin' least
Didn't I love you good and try to take care of you?
Best I could, you were so inviting and your love was like mellow wine
Pains of love, miles of tears, after lasting for my lifetime
Broken hearts last for years and break away to the blue-day sunshine
One thing I can promise, friend: I'll never be back again
But we're not really bitter babe
I promise you all the love in the world, good love in the world
But I know you'll never be satisfied just to have me by your side
Memories haunt you all the time, I will never leave, you're mine
God judged me on His side; you've said bad things and you've lied
Still I remember some of the good things baby
Of love after dark and picnics in parks
Those are the days I'd love to get in my life
I'd rather remember, remember the joy we shared babe
I'd rather remember all the fun we had
All I ever really wanted was to love you and treat you right
All we did was fuss and fight
It don't matter baby, take a lesson from them all
I never thought I'd see the day when you'd put me through what you put me through
You try your best, you say I gave you no rest
(repeat and fade):
When did you stop loving me? When did I stop loving you?
Up and down my back, my spine, in my brain
It injures me, babe....
Anger, can make you old, yes it can
I said anger, can make you sick, children... oh Jesus
Anger destroys your soul
Rage, there's no room for rage in there
There's no room for rage in here
line up some place to go to be mad
It's a sin to treat your body bad
When anger really gets the best of us
We've really lost our heads
We often say a lof of things, oh darlin'
Wish we'd never said
Oh, reason is beyond control
And the things we do spite
Makes me ashamed
And I mean this, baby, makes me want to the things right
Someday soon I hope and pray like Jesus
I'll reach that wiser age
Hope I will learn I really never never profit
From things I do in rage
One more time-anger, more ager
When it's flaming hot
Anger burns to the bitter end
Know what i'm talkin' 'bout
When it cools I find out too late
I have lost at love, love, love, dear friend
I said, anger will make you sick,
children, oh Jesus
Anger destroys your soul
I ain't gonna let you get the best of me, babe
I'm gonna go somewhere and cool
This is not the way my head's supposed to be, babe
You've got me feelin' like some silly fool
But I know a real nice place where I can go
And feel the way i'm supposed to feel
I don't want to be mad at nobody
I don't want to be feelin' bad
Up and down my back, my spine, in my brain
It injures me, babe
Anger, can make you old, yes it can
I said anger will make you sick, children, oh Jesus
Anger destroys your soul
Anger
Anger
This is Anna's song
Im making love all night long,
Take a bath in milk, and lay on your satin sheets
Laughing smiling,(oh oh)
Lay a while in,(oh oh)
Chocolate mint,candy sweets
(living across the way)cross the way
(living across the way,living across the way)
This is Annas song
(this is Anna's song, this is Anna's song)
Keep on singing (loving my song)
All night long (loving my song)
Oooh work so hard, see me making dollars
(never worked so hard)
I know i should for my own good, whats it her smile,
Makes you so stubborn and oh
Didnt you notice the snow, starting to fall
Come let us sit a while, just listen
To the children laughing and running wild
Anna Anna Anna
Yeah this is Anna's song hey baby hey baby
Loving you all night long
Let it happen again and again and again baby Anna yeah,
Shes a child of the sun, lovingest one of all
Mmm and this is Anna's song yeah
Keep on loving me baby loving me cross the hall,
She can't do no wrong 'cos this is Anna's song
Laugh and chatter to you, kiss me Anna dear
Ooohhhh baby
[Instrumental]
Hey Annas heres your song yeah
The one that i promise baby, promise you all along
I knew all the time that id find the rhyme
Never have a fear, here it is my dear
I remember like it was yesterday
we were over Gwen's, and we were trying one more time to make amends
Oh yes we were
Suddenly it occured to me it did not matter
whether I was mad at her
or she was at me
Nawww understanding my condition I must surely be a wishing and a hoping to be free
Chorus
She said... You can leave, but it's going to cost you ....
She said... You can leave,but it's going to cost you.
She said ... you can lea..ve, but it's gonna cost you dearly
you....can leave but it gonna cost you how dearly
Ooohhhhhhhhh
Sometimes my eyes were red as fire
Intoxicated ...
Sometimes the spirit was moving on me
I had to fight to defend my life
I'm gone, I'm gone, I'm gone (get use to it baby)
I'm gone, I'm gone, I'm gone (get use to it baby)
You use to say that I was a gorgeous hunk of man...
that didn't help me baby Ah...when you were on the stand
