I love you, babe, do you know ?
I'll be any place you want me to go
Save my love for you, yes I will
When you need love to help you, do not fear.

Sweet sweet babe, I've found a nurse
I know I can, girl, you be my trust
Ooh ee baby, ooh ee
Get down and do those things you do to me.

You're alright, oh no
All the time since you left your spell on me.

Your lovin' set my soul on fire
Your love is my one desire
Ooh ee baby, ooh ee
Get down and do those things you do to me (get down).

Like didn't I say the rest girl ?
Always tryin' to do your best girl.

I love you girl, do you know ?
I'll be any place anytime you want me to go
Ooh ee baby, ooh ee
Get down and do those things you do to me (get down).

(Ooh ooh get on down)
(Ooh baby get on down)
(Ooh ooh get on down)
(Ooh baby get on down)

. . .


Straight on up, you know I'm gonna do it right
I wanna stroke ya, choke ya, whisk you up and roll all night
I'm a weekend dreamer, don't hesitate and that's fun
To do it to the man with me, never need to worry.

Yes I'm a weekend dreamer, got 24 hours to get rich, get rich
I'm having shorties with the roadies while the group is knocked out with turn tails
Tonight I'm a rambler, see I'm a Ted, that's right
Do it to the man with me, never fails to work, never fails to work.

I'm gonna swing my hat and Sunday look around for girls
To get myself together, have to face that Monday morning's work, alright
I'm a weekend dreamer on the way to work feel real bad
Do it to the man with me never fails to
No not to be till Monday need ya, never failing
You do to the man, baby, never fails to work.

. . .


My baby's far away, yeah, it's time
It's time and tide that makes you put the squeeze on me
A thorn, a rose, alas, there's someone mockin' me behind my back
Ooh is it the love girl ? Or the lack of it ?

Some, someone, someone that's warm
Again you don't want or need him
Something that you need and it's not wrong you need him
Not so long ago, yeah you're going out of your head, out of your head
They told me you got lonely, your babe went cold on you.

Yeah, yes it's hard, so hard to feel the same again, yeah
Hard, I still remember, yeah yeah
You said it was different girl, you're still the same
It was just the same, the same, the same.

Something just hit me, yeah
I never knew, oh I never knew you said
It's kinda cold truth inside of me
Now I'm just existing dead
Now I'm dead, I need to be assisted by you
I need to be assisted by a woman
Don't be hard instead, try to be warm to me, baby, try to be warm
It's hard, so hard to feel the same again
Oh I still remember, I remember well
I remember, I remember yeah
It was you gave me the feeling
Now I love you more, yeah
And there ain't nothing, there ain't nothing to make me ashamed
Because love is the law and the will
I love you still.

. . .


I just came inside 'cause there weren't no place to hide
I know I did, babe, and I'm your here today
Well you can see I was doing bad working hard right down the line
There's a whole strong bashful dream down to L.A.

Before you trust me like your brother
There's something in my head I want you to know.

I've been destined, adjust the power
Higher than a hawk's nest
I'm decked out like an Eastern flower
Who needing more time to rest, oh
I had to rest and think again, again.

Well I remember how you tried to explain
(Remember) how you felt the same as me
And you were smart to haven't to remember
And I guess you came to me 'cause you needed to be free
You showing it to your lover how once we loved each other.

But before you take me, before you love me like no other
There's something on my mind I want you to know.

Destined, adjust the power
Higher than a hawk's nest
I'm decked out like an Eastern flower
Who needing more time to rest
I need more time and think again.

I wanna warn you before you take me for your lover
There's something that if you don't know by now, you ought to know.

Oh destined, adjust the power
Higher than a hawk's nest
I'm decked out like an Eastern flower
Who needing more time to rest
And I ……, my darling, and I thought again
Yes I did, oh look out now!

. . .


Black coffee is my name
Black coffee is not a thing
Black coffee, freshly ground and fully packed
Hot black coffee, boys, mmm that's where it's at, mean it.

Way back you all know since I don't know when
See I got to move on before I was 10
You see my skin is white but my soul is black
So hot black coffee, that's where it's at.

(Black coffee) That's what I'm talkin' about boys
(Black coffee) That's what I mean
(Black coffee) Ooh you've got to feel it in your hand
(Black coffee) Hmm yeah
(Black coffee).

Well you hear that
Some black tea, well it can't compare with me
Black tea (can't compare with me) that's right
Black tea, well it's as good as, it's as good as, it's as good as it can be
But it's a cup of black coffee that a working man needs to see, yeah.

In America, well it's the land of the free
You can get what you want if you've got some do re me
Well travelling far and I work like a slave
Now how can you get and you know I get L.A. ?
I get me a job and I build me a place
I got a spit of black coffee, oh how good it tastes
I said a dime is all it costs in the States
For a cup of black coffee, how good it tastes

(Black coffee)Alright
(Black coffee) Oh
(Black coffee) It's what I want now, it's what I need
(Black coffee) To suit my soul, to suit my soul now
(Black coffee) It's what I want, it's what I need
(Black coffee) It's where it's at, it's where it's at
(Black coffee) Oh

. . .


Well one of these days and it ain't gonna be long
You're gonna look for me but I'm gonna have it on my toes
Run down the road and be gone.

(I believe) And that's why
(Yes I believe) I believe right now
(I believe, yes I believe)
Yes I believe, yeah, you're tryin' to make a fool out of me
(I believe it) Alright
(I believe it).

You're walking'round, you're walking 'round here
You've got your head so hard, bitten
I think I'm gonna have to use my own.

(I believe) I believe baby
(Yes I believe) I believe you're behind my back
(I believe, yes I believe)
Yes I believe, yeah, you're tryin' to make a fool out of me
(I believe it) Oh
(I believe it) Sydney!

(I believe it, I believe it).

(Oh, oh, I believe it, I believe it).

One night you were dreaming and I turned over and I heard you sayin'
It was hard to believe you said
('Oh Charlie') When you know my name is Steve
(I believe) Is my name Steve ?
(Yes I believe) Why'd you say it was Charlie ?
(I believe, yes I believe)
I said I believe, yeah, you're trying to make a fool out of me
(I believe it) Get down
(I believe it) Well I know, I know you don't please.

. . .


Shut up, don't say that you love me
I'm tryin' to tell you girl how much I love you
Ah ah oh.

On you keep sayin' that you don't care a ruin
Now you're trying to tell me what I'm doing.

Shut up (Shut up) oh don't fib around please
Get off my back.

Shut up (Shut up) Yeah don't fib around please
All I'm trying to tell you, honey, is how much I love you.

Yeah how I'm supposed to get a single word out
When you just sit there running your mouth.

Shut up (Shut up)Don't fib around please, alright.

Shut up (Shut up)Well I wanna blow my part, honey
(You make me sick) Get drowned.

Shut up
Oh shut up
I said shut up.

. . .


I'll be the sun way up there
And I will go in most everywhere
(I'll be the moon when the sun goes down)
(Just to let you know I was still around).

(That's how strong my love is)
(That's how strong my love is)
(That's how strong my love is)
(That's how strong my love is).

I'll be the weeping willow drowning my tears
And you can go swimming girl while you were here
(I'll be the rainbow after the tears go)
(Wrap you in my colors and keep you warm).

(That's how strong my love is)
(That's how strong my love is)
(That's how strong my love is)
(That's how strong my love is).

(Have they told you I need you so I can't)
(Can't dry the tears alone when I cry)
(I need to screen you from the stormy fog)
(To try to hide and I love you once more).

(That's how strong my love is)
(That's how strong my love is)
(That's how strong my love is)
(That's how strong my love is).

(That's how strong my love is)
(That's how strong my love is)
(That's how strong my love is)
(That's how strong my love is).


. . .


Well it felt so sad to be where I didn't need to be
Now I feel so good to know how you still care for me
When it's alright in front of you, it's so hard to see
But there was a wall about you though it took me awhile just to suss it out
And what I laid down at my shout didn't help me none
'Cause you held my soul in your hands
It sifted through your fingers like fine silver sand
Well I don't need a swimming pool
I don't need hammocks on the wall
I just want you, babe, and that's all,
I'll say no more.

I laid all my cards on the table
I can give you what you need, now I'm able to
Now I tell you how I feel, I hope you come through
'Cause if you're the sea then I'm your rock
And if I'm a key then you're my lock
Well if you're a foot then I'm your sock, so wear me well
Oh go away all alone
Don't leave me here, babe, with just this one-way telephone
Without you I ain't no big shot
Even now looks like I hit the jackpot
I just need you, babe, that's my long shot
I can sing no more.

. . .


Looking out at rows of slated roofs
Through the flowers on her window sill
Drifting back to days of horses hooves
And there she day dreams, she is there still.

Her walzing pup there used to be
But she says there's nothing much to do today.

Oh Bella, hard to tell
Once you were a jealous lady love
Give it to every man of solemn standing
He's the one you're thinking of.

Small brown dog, he's got a purse in his mouth
He's waiting at the crossing for the word to go
She waits too for someone to help her out
'Cause in a world so, so fast she moves so slow.

She gets her pension every week
But she says it's always here to keep today.

Oh Bella, hard to tell
Once you were a jealous lady love
Give it to every man of solemn standing
He's the one you're thinking of
He's the one you're thinking of.

. . .


I know I don't, I don't believe in old promises
Just want you back again
I know I wrote this longing for you
Is strong throughout the land
Won't you listen to my summer song ?
How long, how long, how long ?

I try to say what I mean 'cause I mean to stay
I try to stay where I been 'cause I been where I stay.

Oh listen to my summer song
How long, how long, how long ?

I know mistake's been made
You know I changed my ways
You'd better hear my voice 'cause I've made my choice
Honey, you be on my ways
Ah listen to my summer song
How long, how long, how long ?

Try to say what I mean 'cause I mean what I say
Yeah I try to stay where I been 'cause I been where I stay, uh yeah.

So won't you listen to my summer song ?
How long, how long, how long ?

. . .


Oh yeah
I can't seem to open my eyes
But I must get out of this bed
'Cause the phone keeps ringing downstairs
And I know that this ain't no place for a sleepy head.

I go down to my chest, oh yeah!
Put on my old string vest
Swing it on, babe.

Well I feel like I'm in need so I go back up for a smoke
And then I slip back in my easy chair then I give my lucky dog a stroke
Well he just gives me a wink and I know what that mean now
Well it mean that I need to put on his lead
If I don't want a mess on my cheap pan.

That's cool 'cause I know I can trust him
To grab the fuzz if they bust in
Get him, boy, oh yeah.

Well what does it take to make a jelly roll ?
Who can you sell ?
When I wake up to a grey day
How do I slip away so easily ?

Oh!

Baby!
Baby!

Well I feel too old to get a hair cut
And I ain't had a shave in months
Now when I don't go out, I keep my door shut
And I get on back to good old Beckton Dumps.

Drowning, now warn you
I'll be right back.

I won't go there.

. . .


All right!

[Ladies and Gentlemen]
[Please welcome the most famous rock and roll group in the land]
[It's Humble Pie!]

Even though we get kicked around
Won't get caught with my trousers down
Oh I know how you others feel
'Cause I know it all myself, come on boys.

Up our sleeve
Up our sleeve
Up our sleeve
Up our sleeve
Slow down.

Getting it on to the whole world, yeah
Feels fine, puts my head in place
Feels as fine as I'd ever be
Thought I'd get it on myself, come on boys.

Up our sleeve
