(Music/ Lyrics: Clarence Henry)

You've got to change your evil ways... baby
Before I stop loving you.
You've go to change... baby
And every word that I say, it's true.
You've got me running and hiding
All over town.
You've got me sneaking and peeping
And running you down
This can't go on...
Lord knows you got to change... baby.

When I come home... baby
My house is dark and my pots are cold
You're hanging 'round... baby
With Jean and Joan and a who knows who
I'm getting tired of waiting and fooling around
I'll find somebody, who won't make me feel like a clown
This can't go on...
Lord knows you got to change

Organ Solo:

(Repeat 2nd verse)

Yeah ... Yeah ... Yeah ...

(Music/ Lyrics: Peter Green)

Got a black magic woman
Got a black magic woman.

I got a black magic woman
Got me so blind I can't see
That she's a black magic woman
She's tryin' to make a devil out of me.

Turn your back on me baby
Turn your back on me baby.

Yes, don't turn your back on me baby
Stop messin' 'round with your tricks
Don't turn your back on me baby
You just might pick up my magic sticks.

Got your spell on me baby
Got your spell on me baby.

Yes you got your spell on me baby
Turning my heart into stone
I need you so bad - magic woman
I can't leave you alone.

Samba Pa Ti

[No lyrics]

No one told me about her
The way she lied
Well, no one told me about her
How many people cried

Well, it's too late to say you're sorry
How would I know, why should I care
Please don't bother trying to find her
She's not there...oh oh oh

Nobody told me about her
What could I do
Well, nobody told me about her
Though they all knew

Well, it's too late to say you're sorry
How would I know, why should I care
Please don't bother trying to find her
She's not there....

Well, let me tell you about the way she looked
The way she acted, the color of her hair
Her voice is soft and cool
Her eyes are clear and bright
But she's not there...

. . .


(Music/ Lyrics: Carlos Santana, Michael Carabello, Coke Escovedo, & Gregg Rolie)

Ain't got nobody that I can depend on
Ain't got nobody that I can depend on

Ain't got nobody that I can depend on

Ain't got no one tengo anadie
That I know of no tengo anadie
That I can depend on no tengo anadie
Ain't got no one

Got nobody
That I can depend on no tengo anadie
Ain't got nobody that I can depend on
No tengo anadie.

. . .



You be you and let me be me
No strings attached emotionally
I wanna get a little crazy
That's puttin' it plain
You got the medicine
And I got the pain

When you just wanna feel good
Like the doctor said
One good dose of loving
It's gonna straighten out your head

(tag): 
You got an open invitation
On that you can rely
You got a prepaid reservation
And that's the only way to fly

Let's make love, the feeling is right
Just passing by like ships in the night
Oughta get a little friendly
There's no time like now
You bring the attitude and I'll show you how

Anytime you're ready
Anytime at all
Just come on over
Don't even have to call

(tag)

. . .


(Music/ Lyrics: Ian Thomas)

Don't rush me just this once
I want to make this moment last
Slow down the pace, there's no hurry
I can't let another pass by me again
Let me be the one to say when I've had enough

Just let me close my eyes, memorize
The way things are this minute
So when you're gone I can go on
If memory can hold within it what I'm feeling
Should time try fading or stealing something away

CHORUS: 
Hold on, nothing's the same
Tell me why I feel this way
Life wouldn't be worth living without you
All along I've been the pretender
But now that's gone forever
Nobody's ever loved me like you do
Nobody's broken through

Got to concentrate, file away
Every last detail
Don't want to lost what's going down
I want to remember everything I'm feeling
Should time try fading or stealing something away

CHORUS

(Music/ Lyrics: Leo Ballard)

One day I was on the ground
When I needed a hand
And it couldn't be found
I was so far down
That I couldn't get up
You know and 
One day I was one of life's losers
Even my friends were my ac-cus-ers
And in my head 
Lost before I'd begun

I had a dream
But it turned to dust
What I thought was love
That must have been lust
I was living in style
When the walls fell in
When I played my hand
I looked like a joker
Turn around 
Fate must have woke her
'Cause lady luck she was
Waiting outside the door

Chorus: 

I'm winning 
I'm winning
I'm winning 
And I don't intend on losing again

Too bad it belonged to me
It was the wrong time
And I meant to be
It took a long time
And I knew for now
I can see the day 
That I breath for
Friends agree there's a need
To play the game
And to win again

Chorus: 
(repeat first line 5x's) 
(repeat last line 4x's) 

Repeat Verse II

Chorus: 
(repeat first line 5x's)

(Music/ Lyrics: Carlos Santana, Chris Solberg, & Alex Ligertwood)

Well I told you 'bout your attitude
And it didn't do me any good
'Cause you took your love away
Left me here alone with all this lonely heartache. 

There are places I remember
Where the ladies still are tender
Against you they can't compare
Baby we've just got to get it back together. 

All I ever wanted was to be with you
All I ever wanted was to be with you. 

I just got to get it through to you
That my loving heart is ever true
Please come back to where you belong
Girl you got to know I'll never do you wrong. 

All I ever wanted was to be with you
All I ever wanted was to be with you. 
Yeah you. 
Oh oh. 

All I ever wanted was to be with you
All I ever wanted was to be with you. 

Well I told you 'bout your attitude
And it didn't do me any good
'Cause you took your love away. 

All I ever wanted was to be with you
All I ever wanted was to be with you
All I ever wanted was to be with you
All I ever wanted was to be with you
You!

. . .


(Music/ Lyrics: Leon “Ndugu” Chancler, Tom Coster, & David Robinson)

Dance sister dance
I love the way you move
I love to watch you
Dance sister dance
Feel the rhythm flow into your soul
Dance sister dance
Feel the rhythm flow
Feel the rhythm flow through you
Dance sister dance

I love to watch you
Dance sister dance
Feel the rhythm flow into your soul

I love the way you dance with me

Dance with me (5x)

For a new change to come around.

Lead Vocal: Waiting for the day when the
King, Queen of soul sing around

Background: Sing around, sing around, sing around, sing around.

Lead Vocal: You can understand everything's to
share. Let your spirit dance brothers everywhere. Let your head be free,

You get out your cold feet ba-by
Something on your back lay it down.

Background: Lay it down, lay it down, lay it down.
