Oh baby don’t you know I love you like the sun
You’re my everything my number one
And when you go away and leave me all alone
I lie awake and weep and moan
I’ll be so glad, be so glad
Be so glad to see you again
To hold you again, to kiss you again,
To love you again, I’ll be so glad
You know my friends all ask me why I’m so depressed
I tell them that I miss your sweet caress
And as they walk away from me they shake their heads
And say that crazy boy is off his meds
I’ll be so glad, be so glad
Be so glad to see you again
To hold you again, to kiss you again,
To love you again, I’ll be so glad
I looked in New York City
And in Miami too
Then I saw your midnite post from down in Baton Rouge
I know it won’t be long before I hold you in my arms
And sacrifice it all for just a moment of your charms
I dunno how much longer I can walk the line
My heart tells me we’re running out of time
You’re the drug I need to keep me satisfied
Until you come on back I’ll sit and cry
I’ll be so glad, be so glad
Be so glad to see you again
To hold you again, to kiss you again,
To love you again, I’ll be so glad
The minutes seem like hours
the hours seem like days
Other girls they come and go but
None can match your ways
We’re gonna rock and roll until the break of dawn
Nothing’s gonna stop us till my love is gone
I’ll be so glad, be so glad
Be so glad to see you again
To hold you again, to kiss you again,
To love you again, I’ll be so glad

Stolen kisses on the beach
Starry night the moon in reach
The sound of breakers on the shore
We had a little and wanted more
Remember
When we were free
Don’t you know you were
beautiful to me
We’ll never
Be twenty-three
But you’re always
Beautiful to me
We argued in the rain
You said goodbye to all the pain
Don’t you call forget my name
Take my picture from your frame
Re/member
When we were free
Remember
You were beautiful to me
We’ll never
Be twenty-three
But you’re always
Beautiful to me
Beautiful
Beautiful to me
Beautiful
Beautiful to me
The passion never died
We never wondered why
Our courage came so cheap
Sacred vows were hard to keep
Re/member
When we were /free
Remember
You were beautiful to me
We’ll never
Be twenty-three
But you’re always
Beautiful to me
Beautiful
Beautiful to me
Beautiful
Beautiful to me

It takes a strong man
To love a strong woman
To stand up beside her
When the storm is coming
When the tempest howls
And the wild winds blow
You got to take her by the hand
And never let her go
You can be
The man she wants
The man she needs
Beside her
Now if love were easy
Like Sunday morning
It could fade away
Without a warning
But times are changing
Yesterday is gone
You got to step it up
Or she’ll be moving on
It takes a strong man
To love a strong woman
To stand up beside her
When the storm is coming
When going gets rough
And you can’t find your way
Pick yourself up
To fight another day
You can be
The man she wants
The man she needs
Beside her
She don’t want no quickie
No rolling in the hay
When love is cheap
She’ll just throw it away
She ain’t no fish that you
Catch with a hook
Or a red pen number in your
Telephone book
It takes a strong man
To love a strong woman
You gotta be strong
You gotta stay cool
You gotta belong to her
Don’t be no fool
You gotta be strong
You gotta stay cool
You gotta belong to her
Don’t be no fool
It takes a strong man
To love a strong woman
To stand up beside her
When the storm is coming
When your knees are weak
And your back is breakin’
Never give up
And think your love’s wasted
You can be
The man she wants
The man she needs
Beside her
You gotta be strong
You gotta stay cool
You gotta belong to her
Don’t be no fool
You gotta be strong
You gotta stay cool
You gotta belong to her
Don’t be no fool

I ain’t superstitious
But a little black cat just crossed my path
I ain’t superstitious
But a little black cat just crossed my path
There’s a bad sign in the sky
You know I’m gonna leave you
Got a pain down in my heart
You know I’m gonna leave you
Someday soon
The river’s gonna rise
Gonna wash everything away
Someday soon
The river’s gonna rise
Gonna wash everything away
I ain’t superstitious
But tonight the moon is rising red
I ain’t superstitious
But tonight the moon is rising red
There’s a wild dog in the road
You better not try to cross that bridge
There’s a wild dog in the road
You better not try to cross that bridge
Someday soon
The river’s gonna rise
Gonna wash everything away
Someday soon
The river’s gonna rise
Gonna wash everything away
I went to Madame Rose
She said I don’t see anything
I went to Madame Rose
She said your future is all used up
She said your future is all used up
I’m a long way from my home
Can’t go back there any more
I’m a long way from my home
Can’t go back there any more
Someday soon
The river’s gonna rise
Gonna wash everything away
Someday soon
The river’s gonna rise
Gonna wash everything away
Numbered be our days our days are numbered

There’s no rest for the weary
The heavy load I carry
Pushes down on me
Down down down to the ground
The sun comes up the sun goes round
I’m counting down my time
If I can’t make something good
Then life ain’t worth a dime
There’s trouble coming every day
Walkin’ right beside me
Go find someone else I say
I’m poor but I’m still free
There’s no rest for the weary
The heavy load I carry
Pushes down on me
Down down down to the ground
I ain’t one to mope and cry
Ain’t nobody’s fault but mine
My back is strong so load me up
I’ll get along just fine
Well there’s nothing I can say now
To ease your troubled mind
Misery loves company
The ties, ties, ties that tightly bind
If you want to lend a hand
My friend I won’t refuse
If you want to pass me by
I’m accustomed to bad news
Well there’s no rest for the weary
The heavy load I carry
Pushes down on me
Down down down to the ground

When I was a boy
Life seemed so simple then
My days could last forever
And time was quick to spend
The road stretched out before me
Across the blue horizon
The raceI didn’t care
If I lost or if I won
I’m racing the sun across the empty sky
The time growing shorter never asking why
Too much left undone and there’s nothing left to prove
I’m never standing still I always gotta move
Counting my accomplishments
Doesn’t take too long
Maybe they’re a symphony
Or maybe just one song
Castles floating in the air
Or a single stubborn stone
Whatever they may be
I’m born and die alone
I’m racing the sun across the empty sky
The time growing shorter never asking why
Too much left undone and there’s nothing left to prove
I’m never standing still I always gotta move
I ain’t gonna cause a big sensation
For me the world has shown no expectation
When I stop to think about
Where I’m going next
It doesn’t matter much.. as long as I connect
With something bigger than myself
Always out of reach
You only got two choices you
Can learn or you can teach
I’m racing the sun across the empty sky
The time growing shorter never asking why
Too much left undone and there’s nothing left to prove
I’m never standing still I always gotta move

With an angry face to me you shout
the nation’s met its fate
Because I’m just like you my friend
I can give it to you straight
Once the world was black and white
And now its living color
To understand what’s going down
You don’t need to be a scholar
Hey Hey Mr. White
Dontcha be afraid
Change is a comin
But we’re gonna be okay
Hey Hey Mr. White
It’s gonna be all right
The world ain’t coming to an end
And the sun will shine its light
I went to Ellis Island
And walked the empty halls
Saw the ghosts of immigrants
Hopeful one and all
I heard din of many tongues
Saw many upturned faces
All coming to a land of promise
From many different places
Hey Hey Mr. White
Dontcha be afraid
Change is a comin
But we’re gonna be okay
Hey Hey Mr. White
It’s gonna be all right
The world ain’t coming to an end
And the sun will shine its light
Hey Mr. White
It’s gonna be all right
Hey Mr. White
It’s gonna be all right
Memory can be deceiving
And paint a rosy picture
Like a Norman Rockwell cover
Of a land of endless summer
It never was so simple
As we would like to think
Nobody’s hands are bloodless
From the same well we all drink
Hey Hey Mr. White
Dontcha be afraid
Change is a comin
But we’re gonna be okay
Hey Hey Mr. White
It’s gonna be all right
The world ain’t coming to an end
And the sun will shine its light
Hey Mr. White
It’s gonna be all right
Hey Mr. White
It’s gonna be all right
The sun will shine its light
Shine on you and me
The sun will shine its light
shine on you and me

When I met you baby
You turned my life around
I wasn’t seeking love
But I heard that crazy sound
To my surprise you wanted me
To my surprise you cared
So let’s not waste a minute
We got no time to spare
Put your hand in mine
Let’s get out of this place
Run away with me, take a
Leap of faith
Ain’t nobody stopping us
No problem we can’t face
Love is all we need to take a
Leap of faith
My past was like a rock
That I carried on my back
My knees were getting weak
Had to get off of that track
You helped me lay it down
I felt the kiss of freedom
I turned to face the sun
My problems I don’t need ‘em
Put your hand in mine
Let’sget out of this place
Run away with me, take a
Leap of faith
Ain’t nobody stopping us
No problem we can’t face
Love is all we need to take a
Leap of faith
Yesterday is dead and gone
Turn and face the front
You’re not gonna be alone
Together we can make that jump
We both have left behind us
Broken love affairs
Angry words that linger
And those wounded burning stares
You might think we’re gonna run
And hide when love comes near
But somehow this is different
The way ahead is clear
Put your hand in mine
Let’s get out of this place
Run away with me, take a
Leap of faith
Ain’t nobody stopping us
No problem we can’t face
Love is all we need to take a
Leap of faith
