Just one more thing girl
Give back my ring to me
And darling you'll be free
#01)
Cadillac doin' about 95
We was bumper to bumper
Rollin' side by side
#02)
The magnolia blossoms they fill the air
Yeah and if you ain't been to heaven then you ain't been there
#03)
Well, it's better than the cha-cha
Better than the swim
Everybody come join in
And dance, dance, dance
#04)
Oh my love you've been good to me
Femme jolie, femme jolie
I could love you so easily
Femme jolie, femme jolie
#05)
Don't know much about geography
Don't know much trigonometry
Don't know much about algebra
#06)
That same tingle I feel inside
And then that elevator starts its ride
And down and down I go
All around I go
#07)
If you wanted the star that shines so brightly
To match the stardust in your eyes
Darling I would chase that bright star nightly
And try to steal it from the sky
#08)
So be my guest
You've got nothin' to lose
Won't you let me take you
#09)
You got me where you want me
I ain't nothin' but your fool
You treated me mean
You treated me cruel
#10)
What is the cause
Your light withdraws
Is it because, is it because
I've lost my love
#11)
She wants to return those things I bought her
Tell her she can keep them just the same
#12)
No we ain't gonna fight
Only God has the right
To decide who's to live and die
#13)
Oh big conniver
Nothin' but a jiver
I done got hip to your jive
#14)
Whenever I'm with him
Something inside starts to burning
And I'm filled with desire
Could it be the devil in me
#15)
Now I'm standing here
Strange, strange voices in my ears
I feel the tears
#16)
I was born in a trunk
Mama died and a daddy got drunk
Left me here to die or grow
#17)
Now they'll always be together
In that happy hunting ground
#18)
Now have you got yourself a brand new baby
Don't tell me maybe
Is it so
I got to know
#19)
All I want is to just be free
To live my life the way I wanna be
All I want is to just have fun
To live my life like it's just begun
#20)
Don't get everything, it's true
But what it don't get
I can't use
#21)
Why can't he see
How blind can he be
Someday he will see
That he was meant for me
#22)
Tell me my darling if you love me
Tell me if you feel the same
Come on and tell me my darling if you love me
Or if all the tears I shed were shed in vain
#23)
[voice 1] I was born in New York City
[voice 2] I was born in Georgia
[voice 1] Girl you're lookin' kind of pretty
[voice 2] Don't you think we ought to
[both voices] Get to know each other better
#24)
When the rooster crows at the break of dawn
Look out your window and I'll be gone
You're the reason that I'm travelin' on
#25)
------------
Tie-Breakers
------------
When you're out in your car
It's a Saturday night and you're tired of ridin' around
And you don't wanna go to a picture show
'Cause you've seen every show in town
#T1)
You don't like crazy music
You don't like rockin' bands
You just wanna go to a movie show
And sit there holdin' hands
#T2)
