I Gotta Right To Sing The Blues

I gotta right to sing the blues
I gotta right to feel low-down
I gotta right to hang around
Down around the river
A certain gal in this old town
Keeps draggin my poor (old) heart around
All I see, for me is - misery
I gotta right to sing the blues
I gotta right to moan and sigh
I gotta right to sit and cry
Down around the river
I know the deep blue sea
Will soon be callin me
It must be love - say what you choose
I gotta right to sing the blues

I Gotta Right To Sing The Blues

Harold arlen / ted koehler
I gotta right to sing the blues
I gotta right to moan inside
I gotta right to sit and cry
Down around the river
A certain man in this little town
Keeps draggin my poor heart around
All I see for me is misery
I gotta right to sing the blues
I gotta right to moan inside
I gotta right to sit and cry
Down around the river
A certain man in this little town
Soon that deep blue sea
Will be callin me
It must be love say what you choose
I gotta right to sing the blues
I gotta right to sing the blues
I gotta right to moan and cry
I gotta sit and sigh
Down around the river
Soon that deep blue sea
Will be callin me
It must be love say what you choose
I gotta right to sing the blues
Theres nothing left for me
Im full of misery
I gotta right to sing the blues

John Sinclair

It aint fair, john sinclair
In the stir for breathing air
Wont you care for john sinclair?
In the stir for breathing air
Let him be, set him free
Let him be like you and me
They gave him ten for two
What else can the judges do?
Gotta, gotta, gotta, gotta,
Gotta, gotta, gotta, gotta,
Gotta, gotta, gotta, gotta,
Gotta, gotta, gotta set him free
If hed been a soldier man
Shooting gooks in vietnam
If he was the cia
Selling dope and making hay
Hed be free, theyd let him be
Breathing air, like you and me
They gave him ten for two
What else can the judges do?
Gotta, gotta, gotta, gotta,
Gotta, gotta, gotta, gotta,
Gotta, gotta, gotta, gotta,
Gotta, gotta, gotta set him free
They gave him ten for two
They got ali otis too.
Gotta, gotta, gotta, gotta,
Gotta, gotta, gotta, gotta,
Gotta, gotta, gotta, gotta,
Gotta, gotta, gotta set him free
Was he jailed for what he done?
Or representing everyone
Free john now, if we can
From the clutches of the man
Let him be, lift the lid
Bring him to his wife and kids
They gave him ten for two
What else can the bastards do?
Gotta, gotta, gotta, gotta,
Gotta, gotta, gotta, gotta,
Gotta, gotta, gotta, gotta,
Gotta, gotta, gotta set him free

Gotta Get Used To You

(jean-alain roussel)
Who dyou think youre kidding?
You walk out on my life
Now, youre back again
And you think that nothings changed
Denying superstitions, defying traditions
It seems like weve been through this before
Now, its gonna be like starting all over again
Oh, baby, dont you know?
Its gonna be like starting all over again
I gotta get used to you
I gotta get used to you, again
I gotta get used to you
I got to get used to you, again
You know I love to feel you
Reach the depth of my heart
Deep inside of me
The way it used to do
Ive had so many lovers
No-one could ever tame me
They all seem to rub me the wrong way
They always get my back up
No-one seems to do the things that you do for me
And now that youre back in my life again
I gotta get used to you
I gotta get used to you, again
I gotta get used to you
I got to get used to you, again
I gotta get used to you
I gotta get used to you, again
I gotta get used to you
I got to get used to you, again
I gotta get used to you
I gotta get used to you, again
I gotta get used to you
I got to get used to you, again
I gotta get used to you
I gotta get used to you, again
I gotta get used to you
I got to get used to you, again
I gotta get used to you
I gotta get used to you, again
I gotta get used to you
I got to get used to you, again
I gotta get used to you
I gotta get used to you, again
I gotta get used to you
I got to get used to you, again

I gotta run...

Craving for the blue moon
Glued on to the sky and I,
Run for fun and sing to sink

I gotta run…
I gotta sing…

Elicit elite out my way for you
Glued on to the mind and I,
Run for fun and its fun to sink

I gotta run…
I gotta sink…

So deep and I get hold of thy art,
Glued on to these pebbles and I,
Run for fun and sing to sink

I gotta run…
I gotta rise…

All the way holding on to you…
Glued on to you and I rise…
A long way to reach the shore…

I gotta run…
I gotta sing…
I gotta rise…
I gotta…

You've Gotta Gotta Go

You must know why,
I like our nights of leisure.
The moment you sigh...
I turn the lights,
Down low!

Then you say to me,
'You've gotta gotta go! '
Don't you know...
I've come to be with you?

Then you say,
'You've gotta gotta go! '
Don't you know...
I want to stay.
I've come such a long way!

You must know why,
My time with you is treasured.
I want you in my life.
For more than just what is pleasured.

But then you say no...
'You've gotta gotta go! '
Don't you know,
I'm here to be with you?

Please don't say,
'You've gotta gotta go! '
Let's try to forget,
All regrets we once kept.

Don't say,
'You've gotta gotta go! '
Let's start out fresh,
And build on love that's left.
Don't you know,
I've learned a few lessons too!
Don't you know,
I'm here to be with you?

James Holladay (Demo)

James Holladay was a working man
He made his living on the land
But living alone was too much to stand
So Jim found a woman to understand
Two years passed living in joy
When out of the blue came a baby boy
Just to keep up the family name
Mister Holladay said we'll call him little James
So you better run, run, run, run (Jim you gotta get away)
Jim, you gotta get away
You better better run, run, run, run (Jim you gotta get away)
Jim, you gotta get away
You better better run, run, run, run (Jim you gotta get away)
Jim, you gotta get away (Jim you gotta get away)
Little James became a working man
He followed his pa right across the land
At the end of the day when his work was done
He'd sit and watch the setting southern sun
Nineteen years had come and gone
Little Jimmy had grown up big and strong
He didn't know that his time had come
When they handed him a shiny black gun
So his pa said, run, run, run, run, run, run (Jim you gotta get away)
Jim, you gotta getaway
So you better run, run, run, run, run, run, run (Jim you gotta get away)
Jim, you gotta get away
So you better run, run, run, run, run (Jim you gotta get away)
Jim, you gotta get away (Jim you gotta get away)
Run, run, run, run, run, run (Jim you gotta get away)
Jim, you gotta getaway
You better better run, run, run, run, run, run (Jim you gotta get away)
Jim, you gotta get away
You better better run, run, run, run, run, run (Jim you gotta get away)
Jim, you gotta get away

Gotta Weather The Storm

Friend fell into alcoholic maze
the kind who never ceases to amaze
leaving me with only words to say
sometimes man you gotta weather the storm.

Here's clue, he's got woman trouble
guess easy to say he's seen double
so I'm gonna lay it down again
sometimes man you gotta weather the storm.

Working hard all this year long
he can't tell right from wrong
so I'll ring it from day one
sometimes man you gotta weather the storm.

Swore aloud how he's thinking suicide
thinking aloud bout rising river tide
so I'll sing it from day two anew
sometimes man you gotta weather the storm.

Booze has turned his head around
think he's suicidal devil road bound
so I'll play it from day three
sometimes man you gotta weather the storm.

So I'm laying truth down the line
listen to these blues yours and mine
listen catch hold my repeated lines
sometimes man you gotta weather the storm.

Think it's worth sown in your mind
making black white stop you been blind
so I'll ring sing the twelve bar blues
sometimes man you gotta weather the storm.

Repeat sometimes man you, gotta weather the storm.

Gotta Find Me A Better Day

I been gettin lonely, too much these days.
I been gettin lonely, I guess I better get away.
But where can I go thats real? lifes a stage on a ferris wheel.
And the actors are all fighting just to see who gets the lead in the play.
Oh, no, no.
I gotta find me a better day.
Talk about down, I feel so lonely.
Talk about down, Im startin to worry.
Dont really want to be all alone. I cant get along with the chicks at home.
The world just dont seem right, my head is spinnin, and I hate whats goin down.
You gotta find me a better day.
Oh, gotta find me a better day.
Gotta find me a better day.
You gotta find me a better day.
Gotta find me a better day.
Gotta find me a better day.
Gotta find me a better day.
You gotta find me a better day.
Gotta find me a better day.
Gotta find, gotta find,
Gotta find me a better day.
Gotta find, gotta find,
Gotta find,
Gotta find me a better day.
Gotta find me a better day.
Gotta find me a better day.
Gotta find me a better day.
Gotta find me a better day.

I Need Some Sleep

I need some sleep
You can't go on like this
I'd tried counting sheep
But there's one I always miss
Everyone says
Im getting down toolow
Everyone says
You just gotta let it go
You just gotta let it go
You just gotta let it go
I need some sleep
Time to put the old horse down
Im in too deep
And the wheels keep spinnin round
Everyone says
Im getting down too low
Everyone says
You just gotta let it go
You just gotta let it go
You just gotta let it go
You just gotta let it go
You just gotta let it go
Just gotta let it go

Gotta boogie (gotta boogie)
Gotta boogie (gotta boogie)
Gotta boogie on my finger and I cant shake it off
Well, I went out to a party just the other night
I was jammin to the music, I was feelin alright
I was burning up the floor like a disco maniac
When my woman said, baby, whys your hand behind you back?
Gotta boogie (gotta boogie)
I said boogie (gotta boogie)
I gotta boogie (gotta boogie)
Gotta boogie on my finger and I cant shake it off
I cant pick it off (uh uh)
I cant flick it off (uh uh)
I sure aint gonna lick it off (oh no)
So I guess Im gonna have to learn to live with it
I gotta boogie (gotta boogie, uh huh, hes gotta boogie)
I gotta boogie (gotta boogie, uh huh, hes gotta boogie)
I gotta boogie (gotta boogie, uh huh, hes gotta boogie)
Gotta boogie on my finger and I cant shake it off
(boogie)

Hey, you wanna boogie? (no man, I dont wanna boogie)
Wanna boogie? (get that boogie out of my face)
Do any of you wanna boogie? (no!)
Gotta boogie on my finger
Gotta boogie on my finger
Gotta boogie on my finger and I cant shake it off

Got To Be Free

(malik pendelton/nicole johnson)
Ive got to be free
Gotta be, gotta be free
Ive got to be free
Gotta be, gotta be free
Long goodbyes, stolen glances
Cant explain all thats happened in our past
Im tired of creating lies to be alone
Im living wrong, were living wrong
More and more you make me
Afraid to come around
You take the pleasure out of being in love
And being down and down and down and down and down
For the one whos there for me
All I really want to be is free, yeah
Ive got to be free, got to be free
Gotta be, gotta be free
Ive got to be free, got to be free
Gotta be, gotta be free
You dont know why, havent got a clue
In the dark about why I am leaving you
You cant expect me to go on this way
No, I cannot stay, I will not stay
More and more you make me
Realize what I have home
Whats taboos exciting
But sometimes it just gets old
Sometimes it just gets old
For as long as I am me, boy
All I really want to be is free
Ive got to be free, got to be free
Gotta be, gotta be free
Ive got to be free, got to be free
Gotta be, gotta be free
Ive got to be free, got to be free
Gotta be, gotta be free
Ive got to be free, got to be free
Gotta be, gotta be free
Ive got to be free, got to be free

Good Time Charlies Got The Blues

(words & music by danny okeefe)
Everybodys gone away
Said theyre movin to l.a.
Theres not a soul I know around
Everybodys leavin town
Some caught a freight, some caught a plane
Found the sunshine in the rain
They said this towns will waste their time
I guess theyre right, its wasting mine
Some gotta win, some gotta lose
Good time charlies got the blues
Good time charlies got the blues
You know my heart keeps tellin me
Youre not a kid at thirty-three
Play around youll lose your wife
You play it too long youll lose your life
Some gotta win, some gotta lose
Good time charlies got the blues
Good time charlies got the blues
Good time charlies got the blues
Some gotta win, some gotta lose
Good time charlies got the blues
Good time charlies got the blues

Gotta Be Love

(john duarte/mark paul)
I wonder what youre doing tonight
I wonder if youre thinking of me
You cant imagine what Im feeling inside
I want to see you but I cant break free
How did I ever let it get this far?
I only wanted you to be my friend
But now its turning into so much more
Its something special, I dont want it to end
I want to be with you
All the time
You know I need you
Lying alone with my heart on the line
I cant get you out of my mind
Its gotta be love
I feel for you
Its gotta be love
Whatll I do?
Its gotta be love
I know you must be out with someone else
I called and let it ring a hundred times
Look in the mirror, I dont see myself
I just see someone I need tonight
Maybe Im crazy to want only you
When theres so many others that I know
Who can be everything and love me, too
But in my heart, they just dont come close
Last night you held me
We stood at my door
And then you kissed me
Now tears break like glass as they fall to the floor
Ive never felt this way before
Its gotta be love
I feel for you
Its gotta be love
What will I do?
Its gotta be love
Im feeling for you
Its gotta be love
Whatll I do
Its gotta be love
Its gotta be love
Its gotta be love
Its gotta be love
Im feeling for you
Its gotta be love
Whatll I do?
Its gotta be love
Im feeling for you
Its gotta be love
Whatll I do?
Its gotta be love (its gotta be love, it has to be you)
Im feeling for you
Its gotta be love (gotta be love)
Whatll I do?
Its gotta be love (its gotta be love the matter with me)
Im feeling inside
Its gotta be love (gotta be love)
Whatll I do?

Gotta Stop (Messin' About)

{B-side of Let's Work}
Sittin' outside your door, about to break down
Fourth time this week somebody's come around
Who's it gonna be tonight, who's the lucky man
Where you get the attitude, I'll never understand
Uh Oh, here he comes now, so happy that he came
Hey! Was it good boy? [Thoughts on, of her aim]
What goes on inside your head that makes you want to take them all to bed?
Gotta stop, gotta gotta stop, messin about
U know u gotta stop, gotta gotta stop, messin about
When I call u on the phone, you act so unconcerned
(I wanna) I wanna get you all alone (ooh baby) to show u what I've learned
Why u won't give me the time of day, u won't give me some time,
U won't give me anything, god u think u're too fine
Can't u see? All I want is a little time,
I've been playing with my toy so much I'm gonna go blind.
Gotta stop, gotta gotta stop, messin about
U gotta stop, gotta gotta stop, messin about
Gotta stop, gotta gotta stop, messin about
U gotta stop, gotta gotta stop, messin about
U gotta stop, gotta gotta stop, messin about
U do it too much
U gotta stop, gotta gotta stop, messin about

Hope You Feel It Too

Too shy
sometimes.
Too 'nursing my wounds'
sometimes.
Too going crazy
sometimes.
Too snippy with a pen
sometimes.
Too scared to tell you how I feel
sometimes.
Too confused (so I run away from you)
sometimes.
Too tongue-tied
sometimes.
Too vulnerable
sometimes.
Too pragmatic
sometimes.
Too 'I feel neglected'
sometimes.
Too afraid to hope
sometimes.

Gotta be brave
sometimes.
Gotta be open
sometimes.
Gotta talk
sometimes.
Gotta throw caution to the wind
sometimes.
Gotta say I'm sorry
sometimes.
Gotta be honest
sometimes (actually all the time) .
Gotta tell you I really miss you
sometimes.
Gotta take a chance
sometimes.
Gotta express it with a poem
sometimes.
Gotta hope you feel it too
sometimes.

Gotta hope you accept me
(even if we disagree)
as I accept you
more than sometimes
(you need to know that) .

Hope you feel it too.

Why Didnt You Believe

(sylvester / clarke)
Why didnt you believe in him
Why didnt you believe
Why didnt you believe in him
Why didnt you believe
He asked for you to love one another
You turned your back and played on with your games
If you had listened, you would have discovered
The Bible would have told a different story
Chorus
Im sick and tired of this old world
Theres so many religions to believe in
If I had been alive at the time,
Id known where and what and why I am
Chorus
You got to believe (gotta believe)
You got to believe (gotta believe)
You got to believe (gotta believe)
You got to believe (gotta believe)
You got to believe
(gotta believe, gotta believe, gotta believe,
Gotta believe, gotta believe, gotta believe, gotta believe)
You crucified the man who came to save us
Forgive them for they know not what they do
But I cannot forgive you what you did
I believed, why couldnt you

Its So Hard

You gotta live
You gotta love
You gotta be somebody
You gotta shove
But its so hard, its really hard sometimes I feel like going down
You gotta eat
You gotta drink
You gotta feel something
You gotta worry
But its so hard, its really hard
Sometimes I feel like going down
But when its good
Its really good
And when I hold you in my arms baby
Sometimes I feel like going down
You gotta run
You gotta hide
You gotta keep your woman satisfied
But its so hard, its really hard
Sometimes I feel like going down

I gotta go on my way by myself
Because this is the end of romance
I gotta go my way all by myself
Love its only its only a dance
Im gonna try to apply myself
And teach my poor heart how to sing

Just like just like a bird on a wing
Im gonna face the unknown

Cause nobody knows better than I myself

Gotta Have You

Never been too much for watching
Cause theres too many things to view
And when eyes begin to wander
They more than likely never get through
But beyond my own temptation
Im enticed by what I see
And I wont feel satisfaction
Until shes where I want her to be
I gotta have you, I gotta have you
I gotta have you for me
You are a sight for sore eyes to see
I gotta make you my reality
I gotta have you, I gotta have you
I gotta have you for me
You are a sight for sore eyes to see
Come on girl, make you my reality
Never been too much for talking
Cause theres too many things to say
And by the time that I start speaking
The right moment has slipped away
But I must break this old tradition
And try to muster up the words
And though someone else may have said them
Ill say them in way youve never heard
I gotta have you, I gotta have you
I gotta have you for me
You are a sight for sore eyes to see
Ive gotta make you my reality
I gotta have you, I gotta have you
I gotta have you for me
You are a sight for sore eyes to see
Come on girl, make you my reality
Gotta be, gotta be, gotta be reality, baby
Gotta be, gotta be, gotta be reality, baby
(repeat)
Never been too much for touching
Cause theres too many things to feel
Plus theres too much disappointment
When you find out those feelings aint real
But heres a time when inner senses
Are gonna have to shine the light
Cause I have overly committed
Myself in thinking that youre alright
I gotta have you, I gotta have you
I gotta have you for me
You are a sight for sore eyes to see
I gotta make you my reality
I gotta have you, I gotta have you
I gotta have you for me
You are a sight for sore eyes to see
Come on girl, make you my reality
Gotta be, gotta be, gotta be reality, baby
Gotta be, gotta be, gotta be reality, baby
