Comin' to you on a dusty road
Good lovin', I got a truckload
And when ya get it, ha
You got somethin'
So don't worry, cos I'm comin'

I'm a soul man
I'm a soul man
I'm a soul man
I'm a soul man

Got what I got the hard way
And I'll make it better
Each and every day
So honey don't you fret
Cos you ain't seen nothing yet

I'm a soul man
I'm a soul man (play it Steve)
I'm a soul man
I'm a soul man

I was brought up on a side street (listen now)
I learned how to love before I could eat
I was educated at Woodstock
When I start lovin'
Oh I can't stop

I'm a soul man
I'm a soul man
I'm a soul man
I'm a soul man

Grab the rope
And I'll pull you in
Give you hope
And be your only boyfriend, yeah
(Yeah) yeah (yeah)

(I'm talkin' about a) soul man
(I'm a) soul man
(And you) soul man
(Ah) soul man
(Oh lord) soul man
(I'm a) soul man
(And you) soul man

. . .


Don't you ever be sad,
Lean on me when times are bad.
When the day comes and you're down,
In a river of trouble and about to drown

Just hold on, I'm comin',
Hold on, I'm comin'.

I'm on my way, your lover.
If you get cold I'll be your cover.
Don't have to worry 'cause I'm here,
No need to suffer baby, I'm here.

Just hold on, I'm comin',
Hold on, I'm comin'.
Hold on, I'm comin',
Hold on, I'm comin'.
(Lookie here)
Reach out to me for satisfaction,
(Lookie here. All you got to do)
Call my name now for quick reaction.

Don't you ever be sad,
Lean on me when the times are bad.
When the day comes and you're down baby,
In a river of trouble and about to drown,

Just hold on, I'm comin',
Hold on, I'm comin'
Just hold on, don't you worry, I'm comin', (here ya come)
Hold on, I'm comin'.

Just hold on, don't you worry I'm comin',
Hold on, I'm comin'.

I'm gonna wait till the midnight hour
That's when my love comes tumbling down
I'm gonna wait till the midnight hour
When there's no one else around
I'm gonna take you girl and hold you
And do all the things I told you
In the midnight hour
Yes I am
Ooh yes I am
One more thing I just want to say right here

I'm gonna wait till the stars come out
And see that twinkle in your eyes
I'm gonna wait till the midnight hour
That when my love begins to shine
You're the only girl I know
That can really love me so
In the midnight hour
Oh yeah ..In the midnight hour
Yeah, alright, play it for me one time

I'm gonna wait till midnight hour
That's when my love comes tumbling down
I'm gonna wait, way in the midnight hour
That's when my love begins to shine
Just you and I...Ooh Baby
Just you and I
Nobody around baby, Just, you and I
I'm gonna hold you, In my arms

. . .


I can't stand the rain
Against my window
Bringing back sweet memories

Hey window pane
Do you remember
How sweet it used to be
When we walk together
Everything was so grand
Now that we've parted
I know there's one thing
That I just can't stand

I can't stand the rain
Against my window
Bringing back sweet memories
I can't stand the rain
Against my window
Cause he ain't here with me

Alone with the pillow
Where his head used to lay, yeah
I know you've got some sweet memories
But like a window you ain't got nothin' to say

I can't stand the rain
Against my window
Bringing back sweet memories
I can't stand the rain

. . .


I don't know why I love you like I do
After all the changes that you put me through
You used all my money and my cigarettes
And I haven't seen hide nor hair of you yet
I wanna know, won't you tell me, am I in love to stay?

Take me to the river and wash me down
Won't you cleanse my soul, put my feet on the ground

I don't know why she treated me so bad
Look at all those things that we could have had
Love is a notion that I can't forget
My sweet sixteen I will never regret
I wanna know, won't you tell me, am I in love to stay?

Hold me, love me, please me, tease me
Till I can't, till I can't take no more, take me to the river

I don't know why I love you like I do
After all the things that you put me through
The sixteen candles burning on my wall
Turning me into the biggest fool of them all
I wanna know, can't you tell me, am I in love to stay?

I wanna know, take me to the river
I wanna know, I want you to dip me in the water
I wanna know, won't you wash me in the water
Wash me in the water, wash me in the water
Won't you wash me in the water

. . .


I don't want to lose you, this good thing that I got cause if I do
I will surely, surely lose a lot
cause your love is better than any love I know
it's like thunder and lightning
the way you love me is frightening
you better knock (knock) on wood, baby, I better knock

I'm not superstitious about ya but I can't take no chance
I got me spinning, baby, you know I'm in a trance
cause your love is better than any love I know
it's like thunder and lightning
the way you love me is frightening
you better knock (knock) on wood, baby, I better knock

It's no secret about it, that woman is my loving cup
cause she sees to it that I get enough
just one touch from here, you know it means so much
it's like thunder and lightning
the way you love me is frightening
you better knock (knock, knock) on wood, baby, I better knock

Think I better knock, knock, knock on wood
think I better knock, knock, knock on wood

. . .


If you disrespect anybody that you run in to
How in the world do you think anybody's s'posed to respect you
If you don't give a heck 'bout the man with the bible in his hand
Just get out the way, and let the gentleman do his thing
You the kind of gentleman that want everything your way
Take the sheet off your face, boy, it's a brand new day

Respect yourself, respect yourself
If you don't respect yourself
Ain't nobody gonna give a good cahoot, na na na na
Respect yourself, respect yourself

If you're walking 'round think'n that the world owes you something cause
You're here you goin' out the world backwards like you did when you
Put your hand on your mouth when you cough, that'll help the solution
Oh, you cuss around women and you don't even know their names and you
Dumb enough to think that'll make you a big ol man

. . .


Sittin' in the mornin' sun
I'll be sittin' when the evenin' come
Watchin' the ships roll in
Then I'll watch 'em roll away again ...Yea

Im sittin' on the dock of a bay
Watching the tide roll away ...ohhh
Im just sittin' on a dock of a bay
Wastin' time

I left my home in Georgia
Headed for the Frisco bay
Coz I have nuthin' to live for
And look like nuthin's gonna come my way

So...I'm just gonna sit on a dock of a bay
Watching the tide roll away ...ohhh
Im sittin' on a dock of a bay
Wastin' time

Look like nothings gonna change
Everything still remains the same
I can't do what ten people tell me to do
So I guess I'll remain the same

Sittin here restin' my bones
And this loneliness won't leave me alone ...listen
Two thousand miles I rome
Just to make this dock my home

Now... I'm just gonna sit at the dock of a bay
Watching the tide roll away ...ohhh
Im sittin' on a dock of a bay
Wastin' time

[Whistle solo]

. . .


Baby here I am
I'm the man on the scene
I can give you what you want
But you've got come home with me

I have got some good old lovin'
And I got some more in store
When I get through throwin' it on you
You've got to come back for more

Boys and things that come by the dozen
That ain't nothin' but drugstore lovin'
Hey little thing let me light your candle
'Cause mama I'm so hard to handle now
Yes around

Action speaks louder than words
And I'm a man of great experience
I know you've got another man
But I can love you better than him

Take my hand don't be afraid
I'm gonna prove every word I say
I'm advertising love for free
So you can place your ad on me

Boys come along a dime by the dozen
That ain't nothing but ten cent lovin'
Hey little thing let me light your candle
'Cause mama I'm sure hard to handle now
Yes around

Baby here I am
I'm the man on your scene
I can give you what you want
But you've got to come home with me

I have got some good old lovin'
And I got some more in store
When I get through throwin' it on you
You gotta' come around and back for more

Boys and things that come by the dozen
That ain't nothin' but drugstore lovin'
Hey little thing let me light your candle
'Cause mama I'm sure hard to handle now
Yes around

Boys come along a dime by the dozen
That ain't nothing but ten cent lovin'
Hey little thing let me light your candle
'Cause mama I'm sure hard to handle now
Yes around

(Let's stay together)

I, I'm so in love with you
Whatever you want to do is alright with me
Cause you make me feel so brand-new
And I want to spend my life with you

Let me say that since, baby, since we've been together
Loving you forever is what I need
Let me be the one you come runnin' to, I'll never be untrue

Oh baby, let's, let's stay together
Loving you whether, whether
Times are good or bad, happy or sad

Baby, whether times are good or bad, happy or sad

Why, somebody, why people break up
Oh, turn around and make up, I just can't see
You'd never do that to me (would you, baby)
Being around you is all I see
Here's what I want us to do

Let's, we oughta stay together (together)
Loving you whether, whether
Times are good or bad, happy or sad
(Come on) Let's, let's stay together
Loving you whether, whether
Times are good or bad, happy or sad

I've been loving you too long
to stop now

You are tired .. and you want to be free
My love is growing stronger,
as you become a habit to me
Ohh, I've been loving you a little too long
I don't wanna stop now

With you my life huh
Has been so wonderful
I can't stop now

You are tired .. and your love is growing cold
My love is growing stronger
as our affair, affair grows old
I've been loving you a little too long
I don't want to stop now

ohh, ohh, ohh

I've been loving you a little too long
I don't wanna stop now

ohh, ohh, ohh

And don't make me stop now
Oh baby
I'm down on my knees
Please, don't make me stop now

I love you, I love you, I love you with all my heart
And I can't stop now
Please, please, please don't make me stop now
yeah yeah yeah
I love you
I love you
Talkin' 'bout heart and soul
That I love you
I love you
I love you
I love you
Good God almighty but I love you
I love you
I love you

. . .


Let me tell you 'bout a girl I know
She is my baby and she lives next door
Every morning 'fore the sun come up
She brings my coffee in my favorite cup
That's why I know, yes, I know
Hallelujah, I just love her so

When I'm in trouble and I have no friends
I know she'll go with me until the end
Everybody asks me how I know
I smile at them and say she told me so
That's why I know, yes, I know
Hallelujah, I just love her so

Now if I call her on the telephone
And tell her that I'm all alone
By the time I count from one to four, I hear her on my door

In the evening when the sun goes down
When there is nobody else around
She kisses me and she holds me tight
She tells me "Baby, everything's alright"
That's why I know, yes, I know
Hallelujah, I just love her so
[Repeat]

. . .


[Chorus]
I'd like to get to know you
I'd like to get to know you well
I'd like to get to know you
I'd like to get to know you well

Maybe tonight
We could paint the town
Go where you wanna go
Or if you like instead
I could brush your hair
Or maybe paint your toes

[Chorus]

Maybe tonight, listen
You can tell me all about your every wish
Or if you like instead
You can teach me how to cook your favourite dish

Cos what we do it don't matter
Long as we're together
So baby let me do ya right

[Chorus]

Though I know I could be your everything
Don't wanna rush you with anything
I'm only wanting the best for you
Baby it's true

[Chorus]

. . .


Oh when the sun beats down
and burns the tar up on the roof.
And your shoes get so hot,
you wish your tired feet were fireproof.
Under the boardwalk, down by the sea,
on a blanket with my baby is where I'll be.

From the park you hear
happy sounds of the carousel.
You can almost taste the hot dogs
and french fries they sell.
Under the boardwalk, down by the sea,
on a blanket with my baby is where I'll be.

Under the boardwalk, Out of the sun.
Under the boardwalk, We'll be havin' some fun.
Under the boardwalk, People walkin' above.
Under the boardwalk, We'll be fallin' in love
under the boardwalk, boardwalk.

Oooh, la la la la la la.
Oooh, la la la la la la la la la.
Help me somebody, sing some la la's with me.
Under the night, under the stars, down by the raging sea.

Under the boardwalk, down by the sea,
on a blanket with my baby is where I'll be.
On a blanket with my baby is where I'll be.

Under the boardwalk, Out of the sun.
Under the boardwalk, We'll be havin' some fun.
Under the boardwalk, People walkin' above.
Under the boardwalk, We'll be falling in love.
Under the boardwalk, boardwalk. Whew!
