Don't Answer The Door

Woman, i don't want a soul,
Hangin' around my house when i'm not home
Whoa, i don't want a soul, baby,
Hangin' around my house when i'm not home
I don't want you to answer the door for nobody, baby,
Oh, when you're home and you know you're all alone
I don't want your sister comin' by,
Because the little girl she talk too much
If she wanna come by to visit us,
Tell her to meet us sunday, down at the church
'cause i don't want a soul, baby,
Hangin' around my house when i'm not at home
Yes, i don't want you to answer the door for nobody, baby,
Oh, when you're home and you know you're all alone
If your mother wanna visit us,
Tell her i get home bout the break a day
And that's too late to visit anybody, baby,
So, tell her to please stay away
'cause i don't want a soul, baby,
Hangin' around my house when i'm not at home
Yes, i don't want you to open the door for anybody, baby,
Oh, when you're home and you know you're all alone
Now, if you feel a little sick, baby,
And you know you're home all alone,
I don't want the doctor at my house, baby,
You just suffer till i get home
'cause i don't want a soul, baby,
Hangin' around my house when i'm not at home
Yes, i don't want you to open the door for nobody, baby,
When you're home and all alone

Don't Change On Me

Girl, you're my sunshine
You chase away the raindrops
Make it all worthwhile
Make all the pain stop
Just like a river you keep love flowing
Don't let our world stop, keep it growing
Oh i like you just the way you are
Honey, don't change on me
Don't change on me
Please don't change on me
Girl, you're my lucky star
Don't change on me
Don't change on me
(Please) don't ever change
I used to wonder where would i find
Some kind of happiness and peace of mind
I was living in darkness
Oh but then you came
Bringing in the sunlight
And easing my pain
Oh i like you just the way you are
Honey, don't change on me
Don't change on me
Please don't change on me
Girl, you're my lucky star
Don't change on me
Don't change on me
(Please) don't ever change
If there's a heaven
Then this is my prayer
Lord knows i want to know you
If we ever should meet there
And then forever we'll walk together
Nothing but sunshine
And no more stormy weather
Oh i like you just the way you are
Honey, don't change on me
Don't change on me
Please don't change on me
Girl, you're my lucky star
Don't change on me
Don't change on me
(Please) don't ever change

Don't Get Around Much Anymore

Missed the saturday dance,
Heard they crowded the floor
It's awfully different without you,
Don't get around much anymore
Thought i visit the club,
Got as far as the door
I just couldn't bear 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 a date,
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 Go No Farther

You need meat, go to the market
You need bread, try the bakery
If you need love, baby
Dont go no farther
Just come on home with me

I got to love somebody
I got to love somebody
I got to love somebody
I want somebody to love me

You need grits, go to the grocery
You need fish, go to the sea
You need love, baby
Dont look no farther
Just come on home with me

I got to love somebody
I got to love somebody
I got to love somebody
I want somebody to love me

You need money, go to the bank, dear
You need honey, look for the bees
You need love, baby
Dont go no farther
Just come on home with me

I got to love somebody
I got to love somebody
I got to love somebody
I want somebody to love me

I got to love somebody
I got to love somebody

I got to love somebody
I got to love somebody
I got to love somebody
I want somebody to love me

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
'cause 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

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 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

Downhearted

I've been downhearted
Ever since the day we met
Baby i've been down hearted
Ever since the day we met
I've been loving nothing but the blues
Baby, how blue can you get?
My love burned like a fire
Your love burned like a cigarette
Yes, my love burned like a fire
Your love burned like a cigarette
Yes, i've seen you put it down and crush it
Baby, how blue can you get?
Oh you're evil when i'm with you, baby
And you're jealous when we're apart
Yes, you're evil when i'm with you, baby
And you're jealous when we're apart
How blue can you get baby
The answer's right here in my heart
I gave you a brand new ford
But you said, "i want a cadillac"
I bought you a ten dollar dinner
And you said, "thanks for the snack"
I let you live in my penthouse
You said it just a shack
I gave seven children
And now you wanna give them back
I said, "i've been down hearted baby,
Ever since the day we met"
I've been loving nothing but the blues
Tell me how blue can you get?

Driving Wheel

Well, my baby don't have to work
And she don't have to rob and steal
Well, my baby don't have to work
And she don't have to rob and steal
Yes, i'll give her everything she needs
'cause i am her driving wheel
Yes, she left me this morning
And she said she'd be back soon
Yes, she left me this morning
And she said she'd be back soon
Yes, she would be back early friday mornin'
Or laid over saturday afternoon
Yes, every time she walk
She shake like a leaf tremblin' on a tree
Yes, when my baby walk down the street
She shake like a leaf tremblin' on a tree
Yes, the women all hate her
But man, she's alright with me
Whoah, i sent the u.n. a telegram
Don't want nobody else to break the seal
Whoah, i sent the u.n. a telegram
Don't want nobody else to break the seal
I want the whole world to know
That i am my baby's driving wheel

Drowning In The Sea Of Love

I've been down one time
And i've been down two times
But right now i'm drowning
Drowning in the sea of love
I've been out here so very long
I done lost all my direction
Baby, when you came my way
Thought i had found my protection
But a strong wind came into my life
It surely took me by surprise
I can't seem to control these tears
That's falling from my eyes
I've been down one time
And i've been down two times
But right now i'm drowning
Drowning in the sea of love
Sea of love
Baby, i depended on you
For the love navigation
But now you've gone and deserted me
Can't you see that i'm in desperation
I'm in the middle of a bad love storm
And it's bad as it can be
I look around, all i can see
Is water coming down over me
I've been down one time
And i've been down two times
But right now i'm drowning
Drowning in the sea of love
Sea of love, sea of love
I've been down one time
And i've been down two times
But right now i'm drowning
Drowning in the sea of love
Sea of love
But right now i'm just drowning
Drowning in the sea of love
A sea of love, sea of love

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 my past
I'm looking for a better future and forgetting about my past
Now i'm so glad that troubles don't always last
Yes, have fun whilst you can 'cause fate's an awful thing
Well, have fun whilst you can 'cause fate's an awful thing
You can't tell what may happen that's the reason i love to sing
