Black man, born free
At least that's the way it's supposed to be Chains that binds him are hard to see Unless you take this walk with me Place where he lives is God plenty of names Slums, ghetto and black belt, they are one and the same And I call it "Soulsville" Any kind of job is hard to find That means an increase in the welfare line Crime rate is rising too If you are hungry, what would you do? Rent is two months past due and the building that's falling apart Little boy needs a pair of shoes and this is only a part of Soulsville Some of the brothers' got plenty of cash Tricks on the corner, gonna see to that Some like to smoke and some like to blow Some are even strung out on a fifty dollar Jones Some are trying to ditch reality by getting so high Only to find out you can never touch the sky 'Cause your hoods are in Soulsville, oh yeah Every Sunday morning, I can hear the old sisters say Hallelujah, Hallelujah, trust in the Lord to make a way, oh yeah I hope that He hear their prayers 'cause deep in their souls they believe Someday He'll put an end to all this misery that we have in Soulsville Oh yeah, Soulsville, Soulsville, Soulsville, Soulsville, Soulsville |

I Never can say goodbye, no, no, no, no, now. I never can say goodbye. Even though the pain and heartache seems to follow me wherever I go, Though I try and try to hide my feelings, they always seems to show, Then you try to say you're leaving me and I always have to say no, tell me why is it so. That I never can say goodbye, no, no, no, no, now. I never can say goodbye. Everytime I think I've had enough and start heading for the door, There's a very strange vibration piercing me right through the core, It says, "Turn around, you fool, you know you love him more and more." Tell me why is it so. Don't wanna let go. Never can say goodbye. Boy oo oo baby. Never can say goodbye. No no no no no oo. Oh, I never can say goodbye. Boy oo oo. I never can say goodbye. No no no no no oo. Never can say goodbye, no, no, no, no, now. I never can say goodbye. I keep thinking that our propblems soon are all gonna work out. But there's that same unhappy feeling, there's that anguish, there's that doubt. It's the same old dizzy hangup, can't do with you or without. Tell me why is it so, don't wanna let you go. |

Oh I need, I need me a part time love Can't say it too much I need, oh, I need |
