Baby, everything is all right
Uptight, out of sight
Baby, everything is all right
Uptight, out of sight

I′m a poorman′s son from across the railroad tracks
The only shirt I own is hangin′ on my back
But I′m the envy of every single guy
Since I′m the apple of my girl′s eye

When we go out stepping on the town
For a while my money′s low and my suit′s out of style
But it`s all right if my clothes aren′t new
Out of sight because my heart is true
She says baby everything is all right
Uptight, out of sight
Baby, everything is all right
Uptight, clean out of sight

Baby, everything is all right
Uptight, out of sight
I′m a pearl of a girl
I guess that′s what you might say
I guess her folks brought her up that way
The right side of the tracks
She was born and raised
In a great big old house full of butlers and maids
She says give her the things
That money can buy but I′ll never
Never never make my baby cry
And it′s all right
What if I can′t do
Out of sight because my heart is true
She says baby everyt촪ing is all right
Uptight, clean out of sight
Baby, everything is all right
Uptight, clean out of sight

No one is better than I
I know I′m just an average guy
No footfall hero or smooth Don Juan
Got empty pockets
You see I′m a poor man′s son

지난 2004년 음악전문지 롤링스톤즈가뽑은 위대한 노래 5백곡가운데 14위에올랐다
평화와전쟁 자유에관해질문하는 철학적인노래
How many roads must a man walk down
Before you call him a man
사람은 얼마나 많은 길을 걸어야
사람이라고 불리울수있을까?(사람으로 인정받을수 있을까?)
How many seas must a white dove sail
Before she sleeps in the sand
흰 비둘기는 얼마나 많은 바다를 건너야
모래 밭에서 편안히 잠을 잘 수 있을까
Yes 'n' how many times must the cannon balls fly
Before they're forever banned
얼마나 많은 포탄이 날아가야
지상에서 사라질 수 있을까(영원히 포탄사용이 금지될수있을까?)
The answer my friend is blowin in the wind
The answer is blowin in the wind
친구여 그대답은바람결에흩날리고있다네...대답은우리주변에있는데 우리가알아차리지못할뿐...)
바람만이 알고 있지.
Yes 'n' how many years can a mountain exist
Before it is washed to the sea
산은 얼마나 오랜 세월을 서있어야
바다로 씻겨갈수있을까?
(높은 산이 씻겨나가 바다로 흘러갈 수 있을까)
Yes 'n' how many years can some people exist
Before they're allowed tl be free
얼마나 많은 세월이 흘러야
사람들이 자유로와 질수있을까?
Yes 'n' how many times can a man turn his head
Pretending that he just doesn't see
도대체 얼마나 여러 번 고개를 돌려야
보이지않는척 외면할수있을까?
The answer my friend is blowin in the wind
The answer is blowin in the wind
친구여 그 대답은 바람결에 흩날리고있다네
그답은불어오는 바람속에 있다네..
Yes 'n' how many times must a man look up
Before he can see the sky
사람은 얼마나 여러번 올려다 봐야
하늘을 볼수있을까?
Yes 'n' how many ears must one man have
Before he can hear people cry
도대체 얼마나 많은 귀가있어야
사람들이 울부짖는 소리를 들을수 있을까
Yes 'n' how many deaths will it take till he knows
That too many people have died
얼마나 많은 사람이 죽어야
너무나 많은 이가 희생되었다는사실을 알 수있을까?
The answer my friend is blowin in the wind
The answer is blowin in the wind
친구여 그대답은 바람결에 흩날리고있다네
그답은불어오는 바람속에있다네...

I was born in Lil' Rock,
Had a childhood sweetheart,
We were always hand in hand.

I was hightop shoes and shirt tails,
Suzy was in pig tails,
I know I loved her even then.

You know my papa disapproved it,
My mama boohooed it,
But I told them time and time again,
"Don't you know I was made to love her,
Built a world all around her"
Yah! Hey, hey, hey.

She's been my inspiration,
Showed appreciation
For the love I gave her through the years.

Like a sweet magnolia tree
My love blossmed tenderly,
My life grew sweeter through the years.

I know that my baby loves me,
My baby needs me,
That's why we made it through the years.

I was made to love her,
Worship and adore her,
Hey, hey, hey.

All through thick and thin
Our love just won't end,
'Cause I love my baby, love my baby. Ah!

My baby loves me,
My baby needs me,
And I know I ain't going nowhere.

I was knee high to a chicken
When that love bug bit me,
I had the fever with each passing year.

Oh, even if the mountain tumbles,
If this whole world crumbles,
By her side I'll still be standing there.

'Cause I was made to love her,
I was made to live for her, yeah!

Ah, I was made to love her,
Built my world all around her,
Hey, hey, hey.

Oo baby, I was made to please her,
You know Stevie ain't gonna leave her, no,
Hey, hey, hey.

Oo wee baby, my baby loves me,
My baby needs me,
Hey, hey, hey.

OO my baby loves me....

Like a fool, I went and stayed too long
I'm wondering if your love's still strong

Oh baby, Here I am
Signed Sealed Delivered I'm yours

Then that time I went and said goodbye
Now I'm back and not ashamed to cry

Oh baby, Here I am
Signed Sealed Delivered I'm yours
(repeat 3x)

Done a lot of foolish things
That I really didn't mean

Seen a lot of things in this whole world
When I touch them, there is nothing, girl

Oh baby, Here I am
Signed Sealed Delivered I'm yours

Oh and baby you set my soul on fire
Thats why I know you're my heart's only desire

Here I am
Signed Sealed Delivered I'm yours
(repeat 3x)

I've done a lot of foolish things
That I really didn't mean
I could be a broken man
but yea I wouldn't you feel...

Here I am baby
Signed Sealed Delivered I'm yours
(repeat 3x)

You are the
sunshine of my life
That's why I'll
always be around
You are the apple of my eye
Forever
you'll stay in my heart
I feel like
this is the beginning
Though I've loved you
for a million years
But if I thought
our love was ending
I'd find myself
drowning in my own tears
woo a woo a a a a
You are the
sunshine of my life
That's why I'll
always stay around
You are the apple of my eye
Forever
you'll stay in the soul
You must have known that
I was lonely
Because you came to my rescue
And I know that
this must be heaven
How could so much love
be inside of you
woo a woo woo a a a
You are the

A boy is born in hard time mississippi
Surrounded by four walls that ain’t so pretty
His parents give him love and affection
To keep him strong moving in the right direction
Living just enough, just enough for the city...ee ha!

His father works some days for fourteen hours
And you can bet he barely makes a dollar
His mother goes to scrub the floors for many
And you’d best believe she hardly gets a penny
Living just enough, just enough for the city... yeah!

His sister’s black but she is sho’nuff pretty
Her skirt is short but lord her legs are sturdy
To walk to school she’s got to get up early
Her clothes are old but never are they dirty
Living just enough, just enough for the city...um hum

Her brother’s smart he’s got more sense than many
His patience’s long but soon he won’t have any
To find a job is like a haystack needle
Cause where he lives they don’t use colored people
Living just enough, just enough for the city...

Living just enough...
For the city... ooh, ooh
(repeat several times)

His hair is long, his feet are hard and gritty
He spends his life walking the streets of new york city
He’s almost dead from breathing in air pollution
He tried to vote but to him there’s no solution
Living just enough, just enough for the city...
Yeah, yeah, yeah!

I hope you hear inside my voice of sorrow
And that it motivates you to make a better tomorrow
This place is cruel no where could be much colder
If we don’t change the world will soon be over
Living just enough, stop giving just enough for the city!!!!

La, la, la, la, la, la,
Da ba da da da da da da
Da da da da da da
Da da da da da da da da da

You haven't done nothing
Lyrics and music by Stevie Wonder
We are amazed but not amused
By all the things you say that you'll do
Though much concerned but not involved
With decisions that are made by you
But we are sick and tired of hearing your song
Telling how you are gonna change right from
wrong
'Cause if you really want to hear our views
"You haven't done nothing"!
It's not too cool to be ridiculed
But you brought this upon yourself
The world is tired of pacifiers
We want the truth and nothing else
And we are sick and tired of hearing your song
Telling how you are gonna change right from
wrong
'Cause if you really want to hear our views
"You haven't done nothing"!
Jackson 5 join along with me say
Doo doo wop - hey hey hey
Doo doo wop - wow wow wow
Doo doo wop - co co co
Doo doo wop - naw naw naw
Doo doo wop - bum bum bum
Doo doo wop
We would not care to wake up to the nightmare
That's becoming real life
But when mislead who knows a person's mind
Can turn as cold as ice un hum
Why do you keep on making us hear your song
Telling us how you are changing right from
wrong
'Cause if you really want to hear our views
"You haven't done nothing"!
Yeah
Jackson 5 sing along again say
Doo doo wop
Doo doo wop - oh
Doo doo wop - co co co
Doo doo wop - sing it baby
Doo doo wop - bum bum bum
Doo doo wop - um
Sing it loud for your people say
Doo doo wop - um um um
Doo doo wop - stand up be counted, say
Doo doo wop - co co co
Doo doo wop - ow
Doo doo wop - bum bum bum
Doo doo wop - ah hum

Looking back on when I, was a little nappy headed boy, Then my only worry, was for Christmas what would be my toy, Even though we sometimes, would not get a thing, We were happy with the, joy that they would bring, Sneakin out the back door to hang out with those hoodlum friends of mine Greeted at the back door with 'I thought I told you not to go outside', Tryin the best to bring that water to your eye Thinkin it might stop her from whuppin your behind I wish those days, could , come back once more Why did those days ever have to go I wish those days, could, come back once more Why did those days ever have to go, cause I loved ''''em so... Brother says he''''s tellin, bout you playin doctor with that girl Just don''''t tell I''''ll give you, anything you want in this whole wide world, Mama gives you money, for Sunday school You trade yours for candy, after church is through Smokin cigarettes and writin somethin nasty on the wall Teacher sends you to the principle office down the hall You grow up and learn that kind of thing aint right But while you were doin it, it sure felt outta sight I wish those days, could, come back once more Why did those days ev-er have to go I wish those days, could, come back once more Why did those days ev-er have to go, cause I loved em so.......

Music is a world within
itself
With a language we all
understand
With an equal opportunity
For all to sing dance
and clap their hands
But just because a record
has a groove
Don't make it in the groove
But you can tell right away
at letter A
When the people
start to move
They can feel it all over
They can feel it all over
people
They can feel it all over
They can feel it all over
people go

Music knows it is and
always will
Be one of the things that
life just won't quit
But here are some of music's
pioneers
That time will
not allow us to forget now
For there's
Basie Miller Satchmo
And the king of all Sir Duke
And with a voice like
Ella's ringing out
There's no way the band
can lose
You can feel it all over
You can feel it all over
people
You can feel it all over
You can feel it all over
people
You can feel it all over
You can feel it all over
people
You can feel it all over
You can feel it all over
people yeah yo

You can feel it all over
You can feel it all over
people
You can feel it all over
You can feel it all over
people
You can feel it all over
You can feel it all over
people
You can feel it all over
I can feel it all overall
over now people
Can't you feel it all over
Come on let's feel it
all over people
You can feel it all over
Everybody all
over people go

Looking back on when I
Was a little nappy headed boy
Then my only worry
Was for Christmas what would be my toy
Even though we sometimes
Would not get a thing
We were happy with the
Joy the day would bring

Sneaking out the back door
To hang out with those hoodlum friends of mine
Greeted at the back door
With boy thought I told you not to go outside
Tryin' your best to bring the
Water to your eyes
Thinkin' it might stop her
Grom woopin' your behind

I wish those days could come back once more
Why did those days ev-er have to go
I wish those days could come back once more
Why did those days ev-er have to go
Cause I love them so

Brother says he's tellin'
'Bout you playin' doctor with that girl
Just don't tell I'll give you
Anything you want in this whole wide world
Mama gives you money for Sunday school
You trade yours for candy after church is through

Smokin' cigarettes and writing something nasty on the wall (you nasty boy)
Teacher sends you to the principal's office down the wall
You grow up and learn that kinda thing ain't right
But while you were doin'it-it sure felt outta sight

I wish those days could come back once more
Why did those days ev-er have to go
I wish those days could come back once more
Why did those days ev-er have to go

That girl thinks that she's so fine
That soon she'll have my mind
That girl thinks that she's so smart
That soon she'll have my heart
She thinks in no time flat
That she'll be free and clear to start
With her emotional rescue of love that you'll leave turn apart

That girl thinks that she's so bad
She'll change my tears from joy to sad
She says she keeps the upper hand
'Cause she can please her man
She doesn't use her love to make him weak
She uses love to keep him strong
And inside me there's no room for doubt
That it won't be too long

Before I tell her that I love her
That I want her
That my mind, soul and body needs her
Tell her that I'd love to, that I want to
That I need to do all that I have to
To be in her love

I've been hurting for a long time
And you've been playing for a long time
You know it's true
I've been holding for a long time
And you've been running for a long time
It's time to do what we have to do
That girl, That girl

That girl knows every single man
Would ask her for her hand
But she says her love is much too deep
For them to understand
She says her love has been crying out
But her lover hasn't heard
But what she doesn't realize is that I've listened to every word

That's why I know I'll tell that I love her
That I want her
That my mind, soul and body needs her
Tell her that I'd love to, that I want to
That I need to do all that I have to
To be in her love

Tell her I love her
That I want her
That my mind and soul and body needs her
Tell her that I'd love to, that I want to
That I need to do all that I have to
To be in her love

That I love her
That I want her
That my mind and soul and body needs her
Tell her that I'd love to, that I want to
That I need to do all that I have to...

Tell her that I love her
That I want her
That my mind and soul and body needs her
Tell her that I'd love to, that I want to
That I need to do all that I have to
To be in her...

That girl, that girl, that girl,
Oh, That girl, that girl, that girl, that girl...

Ebony and Ivory live together in perfect harmony

what we need to survive together alive.

No New Year's Day
to celebrate
No chocolate covered candy
hearts to give away
No first of Spring
No song to sing
In fact here's just another
ordinary day
No April rain
No flowers bloom
No wedding Saturday
with in the month of June
But what it is
Is something true
Make up of these three
words that I must say to you
I just called
to say I love you
I just Called
to say how much I care
I just called
to say I love you
And I mean it from
the bottom of my heart
No summer's high
no warm July
No harvest moon to light
one tender August night
No Autumn Breeze
no falling leaves
Not even time for birds to
fly to southern skies
No Libra sun
No Halloween
No giving thanks
to all the Christmas
joy you bring
But what it is
Tough old so new
to fill your heart
like no three words
could ever do
I just called
to say I love you
I just called
to say how much I care I do
I just called
to say I love you
And i mean it from
the bottom of my heart
I just called
to say I love you
I just called
to say how much I care I do
I just called
to say I love you
And i mean it from
the bottom of my heart
oh my heart
oh my heart

Call up, ring once, hang up the phone To let me know you made it home Don't want nothing to be wrong with my part-time lover If she's with me I'll blink the lights To let you know tonight's the night For me and you, my part-time lover We are undercover passion on the run Chasing love up against the sun We are strangers by day, lovers by night Knowing it's so wrong, but feeling so right If I'm with friends and we should meet Just pass me by, don't even speak Know the word's "discreet" when part-time lovers But if there's some emergency Have a male friend to ask for me So then she won't peek its really you, my part-time lover We are undercover passion on the run Chasing love up against the sun We are strangers by day, lovers by night Knowing it's so wrong, but feeling so right [break] We are undercover passion on the run Chasing love up against the sun We are strangers by day, lovers by night Knowing it's so wrong, but feeling so right I've got something that I must tell Last night someone rang our doorbell And it was not you, my part-time lover And then a man called our exchange But didn't want to leave his name I guess that two can play the game Of part-time lovers You and me, part-time lovers But, she and he, part-time lovers

Over time I've been building my castle of love Just for two though you never knew you were my reason I've gone much too far for you now to say That I've got to throw my castle away Over dreams I have picked out a perfect come true Though you never knew it was of you I've been dreaming The sandman has come from too far away For you to say come back some other day And though you don't believe that they do They do come true For did my dreams Come true when I looked at you And maybe too if you would believe You too might be Overjoyed over loved over me@ Over hearts I have painfully turned every stone Just to find I had found what I've searched to discover I've come much too far for me now to find The love that I've sought can never be mine And though you don't believe that they do They do come true For did my dreams Come true when I looked at you And maybe too if you would believe You too might be Overjoyed over loved over me And though the odds say improbable What do they know For in romance All true love needs is a chance And maybe with a chance you will find You too like I Overjoyed over loved over you Over you

If I'm caught at a dance party without my dancin shoes And everybody dances on my bare feet Shame on me If I'm mindin my business just doin the right thing And you try to front me off in the street Shame on you If a family's waiting for that special blessing to come their way But they ain't tryin to get on their knees and pray Shame on them And if we live in a time where every nation's fightin 'round the world Yet we can't all agree that peace is the way Shame on us Shame on me, Shame on you, Shame on them, Shame on us [repeat] So what the fuss If I gotta get up early in the morning for a job interview And I forget to set the stupid alarm Shame on me If my children are playin outside like little children do And you come 'round there tryin to bring them some harm Shame on you Should I be drivin thru a klantown, find a restaurant to get me some food And someone says 'hey boy, we don't serve your kind' Shame on them And if we live in a democracy and you don't use your power to vote Knowin some would like to turn back the hands of time Shame on us Shame on me, Shame on you, Shame on them, Shame on us [repeat] So what the fuss If I'm hooked on a habit knowin damn well it could cost me my life Yet I keep doin what I should do without Shame on me If you're locked in a marriage and your other half just gives you abuse Yet you've convinced yourself that there's no way out Shame on you If we're jammin the music and somebody's got the audacity To say that they can jam it better than us Shame on them And should there be just a handful that believe that we are totally free And there's no need to fight for equality Shame on us Shame on me, Shame on you, Shame on them, Shame on us [repeat] So what the fuss

Isn't she lovely
Isn't she wonderful
Isn't she precious
Less than one minute old
I never thought through love we'd be
Making one as lovely as she
But isn't she lovely made from love

Isn't she pretty
Truly the angel's best
Boy, I'm so happy
We have been heaven blessed
I can't believe what God has done
Through us he's given life to one
But isn't she lovely made from love

Isn't she lovely
Life and love are the same
Life is Aisha
The meaning of her name
Londie, it could have not been done
Without you who conceived the one
That's so very lovely made from love

For once in my life
I have someone who needs me
Someone I've needed so long
For once unafraid
I can go where life leads me
Somehow I know I'll be strong

For once I can touch
What my heart used to dream of
Long before I knew
Oh, someone warm like you
Would make my dream come true, yeah, yeah, yeah (for once in my life)

For once in my life
I won't let sorrow hurt me
Not like it's hurt me before (not like it's hurt before)
For once I have something
I know won't desert me
I'm not alone anymore (I'm not alone anymore)

For once I can say
This is mine, you can't take it
As long as I know I have love I can make it
For once in my life
I have someone who needs me
(Someone who needs me) A-heh, heh, hey yeah
(Someone who needs me) Oh my baby love, baby

[Harmonica Solo]

(For once in my life)

For once in my life (for once in my life)
I won't let sorrow hurt me
Not like it's hurt me before (not like it's hurt before)
For once I have something
I know won't desert me
I'm not alone anymore (I'm not alone anymore)

For once I can say
This is mine, you can't take it
Long as I know I have love I can make it
For once in my life
I have someone who needs me
(Someone who needs me) Whoa, for once in my life
(Someone who needs me) Hey, somebody that needs me
(Someone who needs me) Ooh baby, for once in my life

Oh so long
for this night I prayed
That a star
would guide you my way
To share with
me this special day
Where a ribbon's in the sky
for our love
If allowed
may I touch your hand
And if pleased
may I once again
So that you
too will understand
There's a ribbon in the sky
for our love
Do
do do do do do do do do do
do do do do do do do do do
do do do do do do do do do
Hmm
do do do do do do do
Hmm
This is not a coincidence
And far more
than a lucky chance
But what is
that was always meant
Is our ribbon in the sky
for our love love
We can't lose
with god on our side
We'll find strength
in each tear we cry
From now on
it will be you and I
And our ribbon in the sky
ribbon in the sky
A ribbon in the sky
for our love
Do
do do do do do do do do do
do do do do do do do do do
Hmm Hmm

As our ribbon in the sky
for our love
