I've Been Loving You Too Long by Otis Redding sung by Mark Willis
I've been loving you too long to stop now There were time and you want to be free My love is growing stronger, as you become a haven to me Oh I've been loving you a little too long I dont wanna stop now, oh With you my life, Has been so wonderful I can't stop now There were times 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, long, I don't want to stop now oh, oh, oh I've been loving you a little bit too long I don't wanna stop now No, no, no Don't make me stop now No 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 of my heart And I can't stop now Don't make me stop now Please, please don't make me stop now [Good god of mine]I love you I love you, I love you, I love you I love you, I love you I love you in so many different ways... I love you in so many different ways....
Lyrics: Modeliste,Neville,Nocentelli,Porter/Traditional Music: Modeliste,Neville,Nocentelli,Porter/Traditional sung by Mark Willis
Little bitty boy, with a heart of steel You know you can't boogie now, but your sister sure will Feel good music in your soul Makes your body wanna rock, wanna rock 'n' roll
Hey, hey, hey, hey Hey, Pocky Way Hey, hey, hey Hey, Pocky Way
Lie back grooving in your car Makes no difference who or where you are Feel good music in your soul Makes your body wanna, wanna rock 'n' roll
Hey, hey, hey, hey Hey, Pocky Way Hey, hey, hey Hey, Pocky Way
Lie back grooving in your car Makes no difference who or where you are Feel good music in your soul Makes your body wanna rock 'n' roll
Hey, hey, hey, hey Hey, Pocky Way Hey, hey, hey Hey, Pocky Way
Hey, hey, hey, hey Hey, Pocky Way Hey, hey, hey Hey, Pocky Way

(lee diamond, george davis) sung by Mark Willis
If you want something to play with Go and find yourself a toy Baby my time is too expensive And I'm not a little boy
If you are serious Don't play with my heart It makes me furious But if you want me to love you Then a baby I will, girl you know that I will
Tell it like it is Don't be ashamed to let your conscience be your guide But I know deep down inside me I believe you love me, forget your foolish pride
Life is too short to have sorrow You may be here today and gone tomorrow You might as well get what you want So go on and live, baby go on and live
Tell it like it is I'm nothing to play with Go and find yourself a toy But i... tell it like it is My time is too expensive and I'm not your little boy
(D. Bartholomew / A. Domino) Fats Domino sung by Mark Willis
I like the way you walk I like the way you talk Let me hold your hand Try to understand I want a girl like you Tell my love is true Don't be afraid You've heard what I said
Let the four winds blow Let it blow and a-blow From the east to the west I love you the best Let the four winds blow Let it blow and a-blow From the east to the west I love you the best
(INSTRUMENTAL INTERLUDE)
I like the way you walk I like the way you talk Let me hold your hand Try to understand I want a girl like you Tell my love is true Don't be afraid You've heard what I said
Let the four winds blow Let it blow and a-blow From the east to the west I love you the best Let the four winds blow Let it blow and a-blow From the east to the west I love you the best
