Live (5:12) lyrics

Gettin' it straight in 98 y'all

Tired of all the talk they're talkin' all over this town
I'm tired of all the negativity that's going 'round
We focus all our energy on things that bring us down
Let's put our voices all together and make a joyful sound

Do just what you wanna do
Oh let the sun come shining through
Everybody
Live, live
Everybody live
Everybody live
You got to do it ...

Supersoulfighter (4:58) lyrics

Super soul fighter's coming
Oh yeah

Soul brother space man
Flying through the sky
Fighting wars and battles
Defending you and I

He's spreading super love vibrations
For a better day
Electronic super soul vibrations
Coming all the way

Super soul
Super soul
Super soul fighter's coming
Yes he's coming

Super soul
Super soul
Super soul fighter's coming
Yes he's coming

I Belong to You (4:17) lyrics

You are the flame in my heart
You light my way in the dark
You are the ultimate star

You lift me from up above
Your unconditional love
Takes me to paradise

I belong to you
And you
You belong to me too

You make my life complete
You make me feel so sweet

You make me feel so divine
Your soul and mind are entwined
Before you I was blind

But since I've opened my eyes

Black Velveteen (4:48) lyrics

Black velveteen
Simple and clean
Oh what a bad machine

Black velveteen
Supple and lean
The 21st century dream

Ready to please
Free from disease
She's waiting on her knees

It's not a sin
Titanium skin
Just take her for a spin

Black velveteen
Simple and clean
Oh what a bad machine

Black velveteen
Supple and lean
The 21st century dream

Nice piece of kit
Electronic clit

If You Can't Say No (5:17) lyrics

People get around
This is a part for you
If you come undone
Then this is what you do

If you can't say no just think about
If you can't say no just think about
If you can't say no just think about me
If you can't say no just think about
If you can't say no just think about
If you can't say no just think about me

I know that you are in love with me
But I also know your kind

Thinking of You (6:24) lyrics

Tell me mama is your life a better change
And tell me mama
Would you live your life the same
Or come back and rearrange
Tell me mama how is freedom

Oh I'm thinking of you
And all the things that you wanted me to be
And I'm trying now
Oh I'm thinking of you
And all the things that you wanted me to be

Tell me mama
Are the colors deeper shades
And tell me mama

Take Time (4:31) lyrics

You can have it if you really want
You can grasp it if you have the thought
Feel your power that is deep within
Are you ready
On your mark begin

We should take time out to really love
We should find out who we really are
We should take time out to really love

Do you feel your life's a big mistake
Don't you hate the way it's all so fake
All I wanna do is just be real

Fly Away (3:41) lyrics

I wish that I could fly
Into the sky
So very high
Just like a dragonfly

I'd fly above the trees
Over the seas in all degrees
To anywhere I please

Oh I want to get away
I want to fly away
Yeah yeah yeah

Oh I want to get away
I want to fly away
Yeah yeah yeah

Let's go and see the stars
The milky way or even Mars
Where it could just be ours

Let's go fade into the sun

It's Your Life (5:02) lyrics

They say that our love is all wrong
And that we should not carry on
But I say they're wrong
I want you so bad

Oh we've been together for so long
How could they think we don't belong
But they'll never know what you and I have

Call your mama
Call your papa
Call the preacher
Hold on hold on

Call your mama
Call your papa
Go on and call the preacher
Hold on hold on

Straight Cold Player (4:19) lyrics

I'm a straight cold player
Just a straight cold player
Straight cold prayer
Ouah !

Just a straight cold player
Just a straight cold player
Straight cold player
Ouah!

I'm a straight cold player
I'm just a straight cold player
Straight cold player
I'm just a straight cold player, player
Straight cold player
Just a straight cold player
Straight cold player

Little Girl's Eyes (7:44) lyrics

All I have
And all I do
Cannot compare
To the love of you

You make me feel alive
You are my highest high
All I can do is smile
When I look in my little girl's eyes

When I look in my little girl's eyes [X4]

You're my star
And when I'm far
You're not alone
'Cause your heart's my home

You are my biggest prize
So beautiful and so wise
I can see the woman from within my child

You're My Flavor (3:48) lyrics

The way you love me
Is like a needle in my vein
When you're not around me
You know it just don't feel the same

And I've waited a long time
Just to feel the way I do
Just give me the reason
And I will be all over you

'Cause you're my flavor of love
You're my flavor I'm dreaming of
You're my flavor of love
You're my flavor I'm dreaming of

The way you touch me

Can We Find a Reason (6:24) lyrics

Is there anyone out there
Willing to try
Or are we satisfied with just getting by

We've hurt mother nature
Can't you see her she's crying
We've robbed and we've raped her and taken her child

And oh oh oh can we find a reason
Just think about it
And oh oh oh can we find a reason
To live another season

We're fighting more battles
Everyday we're alive
We should be rejoicing

American Woman lyrics

American woman, stay away from me
American woman, mama let me be

Don't come hanging around my door, I don't want to see your face no more
I got more important things to do than spend my time growin' old with you

Now woman, stay away
American woman, listen what I say

American woman, get away from me
American woman, mama let me be

Fly Away lyrics

I wish that I could fly
Into the sky
So very high

Just like a dragonfly

I'd fly above the trees
Over the seas in all degrees
To anywhere I please

Oh I want to get away
I wanna fly away
Yeah yeah yeah
Oh I want to get away
I wanna fly away
Yeah yeah yeah

Let's go and see the stars
The milky way or even Mars
Where it could just be ours

Let's fade into the sun
Let your spirit fly

Live lyrics

Tired of all the talk they're talkin' all over this town
I'm tired of all the negativity that's going round
We focus all our energy on things that bring us down
Let's put our voices all together and make a joyful sound
Do just what you wanna do
Let the sun come shinign through
Everybody
Live
Life is the most precious gift I thank the Lord for mine

Without You lyrics

The sun is shining
But I don't feel the rays
The boats are sailing
But I don't want to play

I don't think I can make it
Without you
I don't think I can make it
Without you

I live life in luxury
But I believe it's a crime
Well you can't enjoy it
And all the time cry

Or maybe some kind of spell
'Cause it feels like a curse
There's so much water
But all the time thirst

Let Love Rule lyrics

Love is gentle as a rose
And love can conquer any war
It's time to take a stand
Brothers and sisters join hands

We got to let love rule
Let love rule

We got to let love rule
Let love rule

Love transcends all space and time
And love can make a little child smile
Can't you see this won't go wrong
But we got to be strong
We can't do it alone

We got to let love rule
Let love rule

I Build This Garden For Us lyrics

In this garden
This lovely garden
I build a temple of love
Walk with the Father
Won't be a bother
To touch the Earth as it was

We'll farm the land each day
And in the sunshine we will play
Glory glory for the day He came
Our tears had gone away
We'll make love in the shade
And in the ocean we will bathe
Little fishies in the sea
Say hooray

I build this garden for us

In this garden

Mr. Cab Driver lyrics

Mr. Cab Driver won't you stop to let me in
Mr. Cab Driver don't you like my kind of skin
Mr. Cab Driver you're never gonna win

Mr. Cab Driver won't stop to pick me up
Mr. Cab Driver I might need some help
Mr. Cab Driver only thinks about himself

Mr. Cab Driver
Mr. Cab Driver

Mr. Cab Driver don't like to way I look
He don't like dreads he thinks we're all crooks

Always On The Run lyrics

my mama said
that your life is a gift
and my mama said
there's much weight you will lift
and my mama said
leave those bad boys alone
and my mama said
be home before the dawn
and my mama said
you can be rich or poor
but my mama said
you can be big or small

but i'm always on the run

my mama said
that it's good to be truthful
but my mama said
don't take more than a mouthful
and my mama said

It Ain't Over 'Til It's Over lyrics

here we are still together
we are one
so much time wasted
playing games with love

so many tears i've cried
so much pain iside
but baby it ain't over 'til it's over
so many years we've tried
to keep our love alive
but baby it ain't over 'till it's over

how many times
did we give up
but we always worked things out
and all my doubts and fear
kept me wondering
if i'd always be in love

Are You Gonna Go My Way lyrics

I was born long ago
I am the chosen I'm the one
I have come to save the day
And I won't leave until I'm done
So that's why you've got to try
You got to breath and have some fun
Though I'm not paid I play this game
And I won't stop until I'm done

But what I really want to know is
Are you gonna go my way?
And I got to got to know

I don' tknow why we always cry
This we must leave and get undone

Believe lyrics

I am you and you are me
Why's that such a mystery?
If you want it you got to believe
Who are we? We're who we are
Riding on the great big star
We've got to stand up if we're gonna be free yeah

If you want it you got it
You just got to believe
Believe in yourself
'Cause it's all just a game
We just want to be loved

The Son of God is in our face
Offering us eternal grace

Heaven Help lyrics

There comes a time to be free of the heart
I wanna be ready, ready to start
On a love journey, got places to go
Made up my mind and I have got to let you know

Heaven help the heart that lets me inside
Heaven help the one that comes in my life
Heaven help the fool that walks through my door
'Cause I decided right now
I'm ready for love

A funny feeling's coming over me

Can't Get You Off My Mind lyrics

Life is just a lonely highway
I'm out here on the open road
I'm old enough to see behind me
But young enough to feel my soul
I don't wanna lose you baby
And I don't wanna be alone
Don't wanna live my days without you
But for now I'll have to be without you

*chorus*
I've got a pocket full of money
And a pocket full of keys that have no bounds
But then I think of loving
