DARK IS THE NIGHT

Part 1:
Blues has got me, there is teardrops in my eyes
Yes the blues has got me, there is teardrops in my eyes
Well dark is the night, since my baby said good-bye

Oh how I've suffered since my baby went away
Yes how I've suffered since my baby went away
And I've got that feeling that my baby's gone to stay

Take me back baby, forgive me for the wrong I've done
Yes take me back darling, forgive me for the wrong I've done
Well I know I love you, and you're the only one

Yes talk to me baby, call me on the telephone
Yeah talk to me baby, call me on the telephone
Yes the blues has got me, and I want my baby home

Yes if your baby love you, keep her home and treat her nice
Oh if your baby love you, you better keep her home and treat her nice
Well never mistreat a good woman, this is some doggone good advice

Part 2:
Yes it's been so long since I've seen my baby's face
Well it's been so long since I've seen my baby's face
I'm tellin' you people, no one else can ever take her place

Yes the doorbell is ringing, I know there must be somethin' wrong
Yes the doorbell is ringing, I know it must be somethin' wrong
Well looka here it's my baby, she's done changed her mind and come home

So hurry baby, come on in and close the door
Yes hurry baby, come on in and close the door

Let me put my arms around you baby, so my nights won't be dark no more

DON'T GET AROUND MUCH ANYMORE
Missed the Saturday dance
I heard they crowded the floor
It's awfully different without you
Don't get around much anymore

I thought I'd visit the club
Got as far as the door
I just couldn't bear it without you
I don't get around much anymore

Darling I guess
My mind is more at ease
But nevertheless
Why stir up memories
Been invited on dates
I might have gone, but what for
I just couldn't bear it without you
I don't get around much anymore

Don't get around much anymore...

DON'T LOOK NOW BUT I'VE GOT THE BLUES
My pockets are empty, I feel so low
If somebody loves me, ain't said so
And I got holes in both of my shoes
Don't look now but I've got the blues

There ain't nobody on this old earth
Who'll give a nickel for what I'm worth
I got more worries that I can use
Don't look now but I've got the blues

Troubles everywhere, I act like I don't care
But it's not true
'Cos I remember things, so many many things
But mostly, I remember you

I'm gonna go some place else
And cry these tears all by myself
I ain't got nothing left to lose

Don't look now but I've got the blues

DON'T YOU LIE TO ME
Now let's talk it over, baby, 'fore we start
I heard about the way you over do your part
So don't you lie to me
Don't you lie to me, baby

And I get as evil as a man can be
Now there's two kinda people that

DOWN NOW
I keep on tryin' to get ahead, I'm doin' the best I can
But every time I try to pull up
They pull me right back down again
You got me down now and I hope you're satisfied
Oh, it's so hard to try to keep my head up
Yes, when you're puttin' pressure on me
From every side, every side

Even Uncle Sam say
I owe a lot of money way back from nineteen fifty six
Now, how could I owe him anything
When that whole year I was sick
They won't let me make my money
Won't even let me buy my clothes
Oh, it's so hard to get something to eat
Yes, and now they want to throw me outdoors
Throw me outdoors

Yes, everybody's laughin' at me
I can see the joy in their eyes
They're glad because I'm down now
Just look at the Devils in disguise
And I have no-one to turn to
No-one to lend me a helpin' hand
Oh, I'm tellin' you, shakes has really got me now

Yes, I'm a lonely, lonely man

EARLY EVERY MORNING
Well, early in the morning I wake with the rising sun
Yes, early in the morning I wake with the rising sun
It's my daily motto and the people all calls it fun

Yes, I'm looking for a better future and forgetting about the past
I'm looking for a better future and forgetting about the past
Now I'm so glad that troubles don't always last

Yes, have fun whilst you can 'cos fate's an awful thing
Well, have fun whilst you can 'cos fate's an awful thing

You can't tell what may happen that's the reason I love to sing

EVERYTHING I DO IS WRONG
Well, I can't get along no matter what I do
Well, we can't get along no matter what I do
Yes, everything I do is wrong
No matter what I do

Well, let's make it up baby, try it just one more time
Well, let's make it up baby, try it just one more time
Well, if we don't get together baby
Won't be no fault of mine

Lay it down
Alright then

Well, it's been a long time baby, but it's all over now
Oh, it's been a long time baby, but it's all over now
We can't get together, baby

You were no good no how

EYESIGHT TO THE BLIND
Yes your talkin’ about your woman
Wish to god, man, you could see mine
Your talkin’ about your woman
Wish to god, man, you could see mine
When she start lovin’
She brings eyesight to the blind

Her daddy must have been a millionaire
I can tell by the way she walks
My baby's daddy must have been a millionaire
I can tell by the way she walks
When she start walkin’
The deaf and dumb begin to talk

I remember one Friday morning
We were layin’ down across the bed
Man was in the next room dyin’
Knelt down and raised up his head
And said ain’t she pretty
The world know she's fine
She start lovin’
She brings eyesight to the blind

Hey, I declare my baby's pretty
The whole state knows she's fine
Oh, I declare my baby's pretty
The whole state knows she's fine
Oh, when she starts lovin'

She brings eyesight to the blind

FEEL LIKE A MILLION
I've got a real fine woman and she gives me everything
I've got a real fine woman and she gives me everything
It just makes me feel so good just to hear my baby call my name

My baby's sly way of loving makes me feel so good I could sing
My baby's sly way of loving makes me feel so good I wanna sing
Yes, I feel just like a millionaire
When I hear my baby call my name

Yes, there ain't nobody like my baby
That's the reason I love her so
Ain't nobody, nobody, nobody like my woman
That's the reason I love her so
Yes, I would even die for her and I want the whole world to know

Yes, when I'm down she'll pick me up
And tell me "Daddy you can't lose"
Yes, when I'm down, when I'm down, when I'm down, people
My baby tell me I can't lose
Yes, when all of my friends forget about me

My baby keeps away these blues

FINE LOOKING WOMAN
Got a fine lookin' woman, lives way across the town
Yes, she's a fine lookin' woman, lives way across the town
Whenever I see that woman
My love comes tumbling down

She's a fine lookin' woman and she soothes my worried soul
She's a fine lookin' woman and she soothes my worried soul
Well, she put the lights out on me
Then I gave up all my gold

She's a fine lookin' woman and she shakes all the men
Yeah, fine lookin' woman and the meat shakes on the bone
Well, everytime she shakes mine

Then all my body's gone

FIVE LONG YEARS
If you ever been mistreated, then you know just what I'm talking about.
If you ever been mistreated people, you know just what I'm talking about.
I tell you I worked, I worked five long years for a woman,
and she had the nerve to put me out.

You know I got a job in a steel mill, trucking steel like a slave.
Five long years, every Friday I went straight home with all of my pay.
If you ever been mistreated people then you know just what I'm talking about.
I tell you I worked, I worked five long years for a woman,
and she had the nerve to put me out.

But you know, I finally learned a lesson, a long, long time ago.
The next woman that I marry, she gotta work and bring in the dough.
If you been mistreated people then you know just what I'm talking about.
I tell you I worked, I worked five long years for a woman,

she had the nerve, she had the nerve to put me out

FOOLS GET WISE
I ask you where you're goin'
And you tell me where you been
I can tell you been doin' me wrong, baby
From the shape you're in
You better open up you're eyes baby
Cause fools do get wise

Your late up and sleep all day
You jumb and you ramble all night
Well the fool that I am baby
I can tell you ain't doin' me right
You better wake up and realize
That fools do get wise

Yeah, when the cat's away
I know the rat 's gonna play
But I can't tell what you're puttin' down
Woman you play when the cat 's around
You better try this one on for size
I tell you fools do get wise

I'm through being you're fool baby
I ain't gonna give you another red cent
Gonna tell the rentman to padlock the door
Cause I ain't gonna pay your rent no more
You better open up you're eyes woman
Fools do get wise

FREEDOM
Don't understand
How I could be so blind
Something is changing
And I don't know why
Heaven knows how much I sacrifice
(I hear you, I hear you)
Now nothing in this world
Will ever change her mind

Freedom, what she needs
She wants freedom
'Cause she got dreams
In her heart it's time to go
A long way from home
Yes, it's a long way from home

I still remember
Her standing there
(Yeah, baby)
The sun was shining
On her soft brown hair
Well, all my life
Every tear I cried
I saw the future in her eyes
Now her heart says it's time to go
A long way from home

Freedom is what she needs
She wants freedom
'Cause she's got dreams
And I hope she knows she's not alone
'Cause it's a long way from home
It's a long way from home

I think about her and then I pray
That she'll be safe and warm
(Safe and warm)
I get on my knees
(Down on my knees)
Oh Lord
(Oh Lord)

Freedom is what she needs
She wants freedom
'Cause she's got dreams
Give her freedom to believe
Her heart says it's time to go
A long way from home
Such a long way from home
It's a long way from home

Freedom
(Uh huh, that's what I want)
Freedom
(That's what I need)
Freedom
(That's what I've got to have)

Freedom
(Oh baby, that's what I've gotta have)
Freedom
(Oh baby, baby)
Freedom
Freedom, freedom
(She needs freedom)
Freedom
(That's what she needs)
(She wants, she wants freedom)
Freedom, she wants freedom
(She's got to have)
Freedom, she wants freedom . . .
