I'm an evil gal, don't you bother with me,
Yes, I'm an evil gal, don't you bother with me, I'll empty your pockets and fill you with misery. I've got men to the left, men to the right, Men every day and men every night! I've got so many mem, mmm I don't know what to do, So I'm tellin' you daddy, I ain't no good to you! I've got men in the east, men in the west, But my man here in Harlem always loves me the best! I'm an evil gal, and I need an evil man, But I'm down in the dumps since I list him to Uncle Sam. If you want to be happy, don't hang around with me, Mmm, I said if you wanna be happy, don't hang around with me, 'Cause I'm an evil gal, and I want to set you free. |

I've got bad news baby, and you're the first to know,
Yes, I've got bad news baby, and you're the first to know, I discovered this mornin' that my top is about to go! I've been rockin' on my feet and talkin' all out of my head, Yes, I've been rockin' on my feet and talkin' all out of my head, Yes, and when I get through talkin', can't remember a thing I said! Used to be a sharpie, always dressed in the latest styles, Now I'm walkin' down Broadway wearin' nothin' but a smile! I see all kinds o' little men, although they're never there! I try to push the "A" trail and put whisky in my hair! I'm a girl you can't excuse, I've got those blow top blues. Last night I was five feet tall, today I'm eight feet ten, And every time I fall down stairs I float right up again! When someone turned the lights on me, it like to drove me blind, I woke up in Belle Vue, but I left my mind behind! I'm a gal who blew a fuse, I've got those blow top blues. |

It isn't fair for you to taunt me
How can you make me care this way It isn't fair for you to want me If it's just for a day It isn't fair for you to thrill me Why do you do the things you do It isn't fair for you to fill me With those dreams that can't come true, Dear Why is it you came into my life And made it complete You gave me just a taste of high life If this is love then I repeat It isn't fair for you to taunt me How can you make me care this way It isn't fair for you to want me If it's just for today My Darling, it isn't fair |

Each time I hold somebody new
My arms go cold thinking of you No one can take your place, darling, in my embrace I'll never be free And when my lips burn with desire No other kiss can put out the fire Though I may try and try, no one can satisfy This longing in me (Chorus) I'll never be free from your smile so tender The sweet surrender in your eyes How can I be free when I still remember? How you could thrill me with a sigh Just like a chain bound to my heart Your love remains while we're apart Each kiss I gave to you Made me a slave to you I'll never be free (Chorus) That kiss I gave to you Made me a slave to you I'll never be free |

Trouble in mind, I'm blue
But I won't be blue always, 'Cause that sun is gonna shine in my back door someday I'm going down to the river I'm going top take me a rocking chair And if the blues don't leave me, I rock on away from here Trouble in mind, I'm blue But I won't be blue always, 'Cause that sun is gonna shine in my back door someday Trouble in mind, that's true I have almost lost my mind Life ain't worth living, I feel like I could die Trouble in mind, I'm blue My poor heart is healing slow I've never had such trouble in my whole life before I'm gonna lay my head on some lonesome railroad line And let that 2:19 special ease my troubled mind Trouble in mind, I'm blue, But I won't be blue always Cause that sun is gonna shine in my back door someday |

I don't hurt anymore
All my teardrops are dried No more walkin' the floor With that burnin' inside Just to think it could be Time has opened the door And at last I am free I don't hurt anymore (Chorus) No use to deny I wanted to die The day you said we were thru But now that I find you're out of my mind I can't believe that it's true I've forgotten somehow That I cared so before And it's wonderful now I don't hurt anymore |

I say I'll move the mountains
And I'll move the mountains If he wants them out of the way Crazy he calls me Sure, I'm crazy Crazy in love, I say I say I'll go through fire And I'll go through fire As he wants it, so it will be Crazy he calls me Sure, I'm crazy Crazy in love, you see Like the wind that shakes the bough He moves me with a smile The difficult I'll do right now The impossible will take a little while I say I'll care forever And I mean forever If I have to hold up the sky Crazy he calls me Sure, I'm crazy Crazy in love am I |

Did you see that I've got a lot to learn?
Well don't think I'm trying not to learn, Since this is the perfect spot to learn - Oooh, teach me tonight! Let's start with the ABC of it, Roll right down to the XYZ of it Help me solve the mystery of it, Teach me tonight! The sky's a blackboard high above you, If a shooting star goes by, I'll use that star, to write I love you, A thousand times across the sky. One thing isn't very clear my love, Should the teacher stand so near my love? Graduation's almost here my love, Come on and teach me tonight. I'll use that star to write I love you, A thousand times across the sky, One thing isn't very clear my love Should the teacher stand so near my love, Graduation's almost here my love, Teach me......please teach me tonight! |

You don't know what love is until you've learned the meaning of the Blues.
Until you've loved a love you had to lose: You don't know what love is. You don't know how lips burn until you've kissed and had to pay the cost; Until you've flipped your heart and you have lost: You don't know what love is. Do you know how a lost heart fears the thought of reminiscing? And lips that taste of tears lose their taste for kissing. You don't know how hearts ache for love that cannot live yet never dies, Until you've faced each dawn with sleepless eyes: You don't know what love is. You don't know what love is. |

Heaven sends A song through its doors Just as if it seems to know I'm exclusively yours Knowing this I feel but one way You will understand too In these words that I say I'll close my eyes To everyone but you And when I do I'll see you standing there I'll lock my heart To any other caress I'll never say yes To a new love affair Then I'll close my eyes To everything that's gay If you are not there Oh, to share each lovely day And through the years In those moments When we're far apart Don't you know I'll close my eyes And I'll see you with my heart |

When it rained five days
And the skies turned dark at night When it rained five days And the skies turned dark at night There was trouble takin' place In the lowland at night I woke up this mornin' Couldn't even get out of my door I woke up this mornin' Couldn't even get out of my door Enough trouble to make a poor woman Wonder where she's gonna go They rowed a little boat About five miles across the farm Said they rowed a little boat About five miles across the farm I packed up all of my clothes, trowed them in And they rowed me along Where it thundered and lightnin' And the wind began to blow Said it thundered and lightnin' And the wind began to blow There was thousands of people They had no place to go I went out and stood up On a high old lonesome hill I went out and stood up On a high old lonesome hill I looked down on the house Where I used to live Back water blues that calls me To pack my things and go Back water blues that calls me To pack my things and go Cause my house fell down And I can't live there no more Ooh, I can't live there no more Ooh, I can't live there no more There ain't no place for a poor woman to go |

All of me
Why not take all of me Can't you see That I'm no good without you Take my arms I want to loose them Take my lips I'll never use them Your goodbye Left me with eyes that cry And I know that I Am no good without you You took the part That once was my heart So why not take all of me (Repeat both verses) Why not take all of me |

Unforgettable
That's what you are Unforgettable Tho' near or far Like a song of love that clings to me How the thought of you does things to me Never before has someone been more Unforgettable in every way And forever more, that's how you'll stay That's why darling it's incredible That someone so unforgettable Thinks that I am unforgettable too |
