Live your loving life,
Live it all the best you can.
If you pay no attention, darling
To what you might ever hear from your man,
I think you're just like a servant
And try to keep it all to yourself.
Don't you know it makes the world go round,
You gotta go and honey share the world.
Come on, come on, come on!
As good as you've been to this world
So good I wanna be right back to you.
As good as you've been now.
As good as you've been to this whole wide world,
So good I wanna be.
As good as you've been now, yeah,
As good as you've been to this whole wide world,
As good as you've been, babe,
So good I wanna be here.
Ain't no use in being faithful,
I see you lookin' at the sky.
I know what's in it make you happy there,
But it only make you cry.
I think you got good intentions,
They don't manage to show through.
Whatever you give to the world outside,
I wanna give it right back to you, yeah!
Come on, come on, come on!
So you meet somebody on the street,
You like to treat him mighty fine.
Or you meet him on the street
And you give him a real hard time.
It's gonna come on home babe,
I said it's gonna come right back home to you.
It's gonna visit you now.
Oh!!!
Good as you've been to this whole wide world,
As good as you've been, babe,
So good I wanna be here.
Good as you've been to this whole wide world,
As good as you've been, babe,
So good I wanna be here.
Alright, the way you love your mother,
The way you love your sister, your brother,
The way you love your aunt, your uncle,
Anybody now, everybody now.
Good as you've been babe, come on!
Good as you've been babe, alright!
Good as you've been babe, come on!
Good as you've been babe, alright!
Good as you've been babe, hey!
Good as you've been babe!

Never ever, honey, it never shone on me, no, no.
Babe and I want, honey I want my whole life
To be lived with you, babe,

Honey, you don't know what it's like
Oh, to love anybody.
Oh honey, I said I wanna talk about holding you now
The way I love you, babe,
And I've been loving you, babe.
In my brain, oh, honey, I can see your face again,
I know, I said I feel like I ought to know my own frame of
mind.
Oh, but nobody, nobody has to ever be so goddamn blind,
Honey like I was, honey, I tell you that I was,

You don't know, you don't know what it's like
Oh, to love anybody.
Oh, honey I've got to talk about it now
The way I tried to love you, baby,
Honey, I just want you to know I tried.
Oh, I know that there's a way
Honey, 'cause everybody came to me one time and they said,
"Baby, you can do anything,
You can do every thing," and I think I can, I said I know I
can.
Honey, what good, oh what good,
Honey, what good can it ever bring,
'Cause I ain't got you, you're all I ever wanted,
And I ain't got you, babe, honey and I've looked around.
But you don't know,
You don't know what it's like,
No, you don't and you never never, never.
You don't know, honey,
You don't know what it's like
Oh, to love anybody.
Oh, honey I said I wanna talk about it now.

Poster by Arnold Skolnic |
Summertime,
Child, you're living easy.
Fish are, fish are jumping out
And the cotton, Lord,
Cotton's high, Lord, so high.
Your daddy's rich,
When your ma, oh honey thinks she's mighty good-looking,
babe.
I said she's looking pretty fine to me right now,
Don't you know she is.
Whoa, hush, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby,
No, no, no, no, no, don't you cry.
Oh honey you'd better not cry
'Cause they're gonna kick you up if when you want to do
nothing,
Take it from me!
Cry.
Whoa, one of these mornings,
Child, you'll rise up singing, baby, oh.
I said you're gonna wanna go, honey, spread your wings,
Yeah, child, you take, take to the sky,
Lord, the sky.
Until that morning,
Honey, no-no-no-nothing's going to harm you, babe,
I said honey nothing's ever gonna let you down,
'Cause I just wouldn't let them do it , no, no, no, no, no,
Hush, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby,

Try, try, try just a little bit harder
So I can love, love, love him, I tell myself
Well, I'm gonna try, just a little bit harder
So I can't give, give, give, give him to nobody else.
Well, I've been waiting for such a long time
I ain't gonna lose myself
(No, I ain't gonna lose it)
I ain't gonna lose myself
To make him mine, all mine.
Yeah, I'm gonna try yeah, just a little bit harder
So I can give, give, give, give him every bit of my soul.
(Hey!)
Yeah, I'm gonna try yeah, just a little bit harder
So I won't lose, lose, lose him to nobody, no.
Oh! Well, I don't care how long it's gonna take me
But if it's a dream I don't want
No, I don't really want it
If it's a dream I don't want
Nobody to wake me.
Hey, you better not do it! Yeah!
Try yeah, try oh yeah, hey, hey!
Try yeah,

Oh daddy, daddy, daddy, daddy

OK. That was a song by Jerry Ragovoy that's gonna be our next record which is called I Got Dem Ol' Kozmic Blues Again Mama!. Talking about the Kozmic blues, you know what I mean, man. If you don't know what I mean, you will soon enough, ha ha ha ha ha! So —
Time keeps movin' on,
Friends, they turn away. Yeah!
Yeah, I keep movin' on
But I never found out why
I keep pushing on harder,
I keep tryin' to make it right
Through another lonely day.
Whoaa!!!
Dawn has come at last,
I said there's twenty-five years, honey just in one night, oh yeah,
oh!
Yeah, I'm twenty-five years older now
So I know it can't be right
And I'm no better, baby,
And I can't help you no more
Than I did when just a girl, whoaa!!
It makes no difference, baby,
I know that I could always try.
There's a fire inside everyone of us,
I got to hold it now,
I'm gonna need it, yeah,
I got to hold it now,
I'm gonna use it till the day I die, whoa.
Don't expect any answers, dear,
'Cause I know, honey, that they don't come with age, no, no,
no.
I ain't never gonna love you any better, baby,
And I'm never gonna love you right,
So you'd better take it now, right now, whoaa!!!
But it don't make no difference, babe, no, no, no,
And I know that I could always try.
There's a fire inside of everyone of us, yeah,
I got to hold it, now,
I'm gonna need it, yeah,
I better use it till the day I die.
Don't make no difference, babe, no, no, no,
And it never ever will.
I said I wanna talk about a little bit of loving, yeah,
I got to hold it now,
I'm gonna need it, yeah,
I'm gonna use it, say, whoaah!!!
Don't make no difference, babe, no, no, no,
Oh honey, I'd hate to be the one.
I said you better live your life
And you better love your life
'Cause some day, some day
I know loneliness's going to come around you.
I said it's going to come around to you,
I said it's going to come all around
I said it's going to push around back down,
And if you want some advice, honey, you better pull away.
You can go away from it now,
I said go away from it now,
I said I don't want it,
I said and I don't have to do it.
Whoa yeah,
Whoa yeah,
Oh honey you better keep truckin' on.
Because every time you put out your hand,
Every time you want someone to understand
I said they're gonna kick you in the teeth
And then they'll leave you there.
Whoa yeah,

out. I'd like to close with a tune by Nick Gravenites who I
mentioned before because he's such a fine songwriter. This is a
tune of his called Work Me, Lord.
One, two, three, four
Work me, Lord,
Work me, Lord.
Please don't you leave me,
I feel so useless down here
With no one to love
Though I've looked everywhere
And I can't find me anybody to love,
To feel my care.
So ah Lord, work me, Lord,
Whoa, oh use me Lord,
Can't I show how hard it is
Trying to live when you're all alone.
Every day I keep trying to move forward,
But something is driving me, oh, back,
Something's trying to hold on to me,
To my way of life.
So, oh don't you forget me down here, Lord,
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
Ah, don't you forget me, Lord.
Well I don't think I'm any very special
Kind of person down here, I know better,
But I don't think you're gonna find anybody,
Not anybody who can say that they tried like I tried,
The worst that you can say all about me
Is that I'm never satisfied, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Whoa, oh, oh, work me, Lord,
Oh daddy, daddy, daddy, daddy, use me, Lord.
Please, honey, don't you leave me,
I feel so useless down here.
I can't find me anybody to love me
And I've looked around,
I've looked everywhere, everywhere
And I can't find me anyone to love,
To feel my care.
So honey don't you go and leave me, Lord,
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
Oh, Lord.
Can't I show you how hard it is
Trying to live when you're all alone.
Every day I keep pushing,
I keep trying to move forward
But something is driving me, oh, back,
Something's trying to hold on to me,
To my way of life, why.
Oh, please, oh whoa, oh whoa.
Oh please, please don't you go and forget me, Lord
Now don't forget me, Lord
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
