When I Leave Here

Time was baby when you treated me right
You used to stay at home, now you're stayin out at night
Hey when I leave here, and you find what it means to be alone
You will cry for me, and pray one day that I'll come back home

Yeah you was spoiled ever since you was a child
Your mother and father let you run wild
Hey when I leave here, and you find what it means to be alone
You will cry for me, and pray that I'll come back home

When you were down, you treated me like your special friend
Now you treat me like your little boy, and it's got to end

Say you was blessed, by the stars up above
You can take care of yourself now, and you don't need my love
Hey when I leave here, and you find what it means to be alone
You'll cry for me and prey one day that I come back home

When you were down, you treated me like your special friend
Now you treat me like your little boy, and it's got to end

Say you was blessed, by the stars up above
You can take care of yourself now, and you don't need my love
Hey when I leave here, and you find what it means to be alone
You'll cry for me and pray one day that I come back home
You'll cry for me and pray one day that I come back home


Chevrolet

Buy you a chevrolet (3x)
Just do somethin for you (2x)

Buy you a diamond ring (3x)
Just do somethin for you (2x)

Build you a house and home (3x)
Just do somethin for you (2x)

Buy you a chevrolet (3x)
Just do somethin for you (2x)


Top of the Hill

No need to hide it, or to deny it,
I'll never buy it cause I've learned your ways
Come hook or crook you're gonna make it rich
You're gonna scratch it if you got the itch
And the people will know your name
And they'll do your will
At the top of your game
You're the man, the man on top of the hill

You like to tell me, things to compel me
You gonna sell me, on your best intent
I know you're really after fortune and fame
And greed is greed by any other name
You'll get what you want I know
And have time to kill
And every place you go
You' re the man, the man on top of the hill

You've got ambition, a strong ambition
You're on a mission to be number one
Whatever it takes to get what you deserve
No one can stand against that kind of nerve
And after they've nailed you in
They'll remember you still, the one who just had to win
He's the man, the man on top of the hill
You're the man,......way up on top of the hill


Start It Up

My, my, my baby, you're my cup of tea
My, my, my I'm loving what you do to me
You got a motor like a brand new car
So start it up for me

Yes, yes, yes something in your sexy ways
Yes, yes, yes gonna love you all of my days
You got a motor like a brand new car
So start it up for me

Start it up, start it up you make me feel like romancin'
Start it up, start it up you make me feel like dancin'
You got a motor like a brand new car
So start it up for me

The way you move such a finely tuned machine mmm,
Such a solid groove the best I've ever seen
You got a motor like a brand new car
So start it up for me

The way you move such a finely tuned machine yes,
such a solid groove the best I've ever seen
You got a motor like a brand new car
Baby start it up for me

Start it up, start it up
You make me feel like romancin'
Start it up, start it up
You make me feel like dancin'

You got a motor like brand new car
So start it up for me
Start it up


Don't Let the Sun Catch You Crying

Don't let the sun catch you crying
Crying at my front door
You done your daddy dirty
And he don't want you around here no more
Don't let the sun catch you crying
Lying at my back door
You done your daddy dirty
And he don't want you around here no more
You can cry, cry ,cry
Yes, and baby, you can wail
Beat your head on the pavement
Hey, till the man come
Land you in jail
Don't let the sun catch you crying
Lying at my back door
You done your daddy dirty
And he don't want you around here no more
You can cry, cry ,cry
Yes, and baby, you can wail
Beat your head on the pavement
Hey, till the man come
Land you in jail


Help the Poor

Help the poor, won't you help poor me
Have a heart baby, won't you, baby
Listen to my plea Need all your love
I need your care I need all of the love
You can spare
Help the poor Help poor me

Say you will Say you'll help me on
I can't make it no further This way alone
Lost all my courage When I found you
Got what I needed To see me through
Help the poor Help poor me

You're my inspiration You can make me a king
If you don't come to my rescue I'll never be anything
Help the poor Help poor me
Have a heart baby, won't you, baby
Listen to my plea Need all your love
I need your care I need all of the love
You can spare
Help the poor Help poor me

Help the poor Won't you help poor me
Have a heart baby, won't you, baby
Listen to my plea Need all your love
I need your care I need all of the love
You can spare
Help the poor Help poor me


Loving Cup

Won't you tell me something, buddy What can I do
Honey, I wanna drink from that lovin' cup, too
Honey, I wanna drink from that lovin' cup too

You should be downtown working Making lots of money
Instead of walking these streets Baby, acting funny
Won't you tell me something, buddy What can I do
Honey, I wanna drink from that lovin' cup, too
Honey, I wanna drink from that lovin' cup too

You don't wash your hair You don't wash your clothes
What else you don't do Baby. nobody knows
Won't you tell me something, buddy What can I do
Honey, I wanna drink from that lovin' cup, too
Honey, I wanna drink from that lovin' cup too

You should be downtown working Making lots of money
Instead of walking these streets Baby, acting funny
Won't you tell me something, buddy What can I do
Honey, I wanna drink from that lovin' cup, too
Honey, I wanna drink from that lovin' cup too
From that lovin'cup, too


Tired of Talkin

Baby I'm out of breath we're talkin our selves to death
And nothing seem to change,maybe it's best if we parted
It's like the blind leading the blind
We're even further behind than when we started
I'm tired of talkin,guess it's time to go

Baby I'm so confused and feeling a little bruised
When all we do is fight We can't help but feel down hearted
It's like the blind leading the blind even further behind
Then when we started
I'm tired of talkin guess it's time to go

Baby I'm out of breath we're talkin ourselves to death
And nothing seem to change maybe it's best if we parted
It's like the blind leading the blind
Even further behind then when we started
I'm tired of talkin guess it's time to go
