Dennis: The childhood part of my life
Wasn't very pretty, see... Temptations: Boom, boom-boom, boom Dennis: I was born and raised In the slums of the city, Temptations: Boom, boom-boom, boom Dennis: It was a one-room shack That slept ten other children beside me, Temptations: Boom, boom-boom, boom Dennis: We hardly enough food Or room to sleep Temptations: Boom, boom-boom, boom Dennis: It was hard times... I needed somethin' to ease my troubled mind Dennis: Oooh listen... My father didn't know the meaning of work Temptations: Boom, boom-boom, boom Dennis: He disrespected mama, And treated us like dirt Temptations: Boom, boom-boom, boom Dennis: I left home seeking a job That I never could find Temptations: Boom, boom-boom, boom Dennis: The pressure came down hard And I took to cloud nine Temptations: Boom, boom-boom, boom Paul: I'm doing fine Up here, on cloud nine Dennis: A one more time Paul: I'm doing fine Up here, on cloud nine Dennis: Folks down there tell me... Dennis: They say give yourself a chance And don't let life pass you by, Temptations: Woo, woo, woo Dennis: But the world, say, is a rat race Where only the strongest survive, It's a dog-eat-dog world And that ain't no lie, Temptations: Ain't no lie Dennis: It ain't even safe no more To walk the streets at night Temptations: I'm doing fine On cloud nine Dennis: Let me tell 'bout cloud nine... Temptations: Cloud nine Paul: You can be what you want to be Temptations: Cloud Nine Dennis: You ain't got no responsibility Temptations: Cloud Nine Eddie: And every man, every man is free Temptations: Cloud nine Dennis: You're a million miles from reality Paul: Reality Temptations: I wanna' say up Eddie and Otis: Higher Temptations: Up and up, Up and away Temptations: Cloud nine Eddie: I wanna' say I love the life I live, And I'm going to live, the life I love Or be on cloud nine... I, I, I, I, I, I'm ridin' high Temptations: On cloud nine Dennis: You're as free as a burning flame Temptations: Cloud nine Melvin: There's no difference between day and night Temptations: Cloud nine Eddie: It's a world of love and harmony Temptations: Cloud nine Dennis: You're a million miles from reality Paul: Reality Temptations: I wanna' say up Eddie and Otis: Higher Temptations: Up and up, up and away Temptations: Cloud Nine Paul: You can be what you want to be, ah Temptations: Cloud nine Dennis: You ain't got no responsibility Temptations: Cloud nine Eddie: Every man in his mind is free Temptations: Cloud nine Dennis: You're a million miles from reality Temptations: Cloud nine Paul: You can be what you want to be Temptations: all of them weave in and out with ad libs and es of "Boom-booms" fade to end |

I bet you're wondering how I knew.
Ah, what you're plans to make me blue. With some other guy you knew before. Between the two of us, you know I love you more. Dennis: It took me by surprise I must say, when I found out yesterday. Oh, I heard it through the grapevine. (Heard it through the grapevine) Not much longer would you be mine. (Not much longer would you be mine) Oh, I heard it through the grapevine. (Heard it through the grapevine) And I'm just about to lose my mind. I know a man ain't supposed to cry. But these tears I can't hold inside. Losin' you would end my life you see. 'Cause you mean that much to me. Eddie: You could have told me yourself, Oh, that you love someone else. Instead I heard it through the grapevine. (Heard it through the grapevine) Not much longer would you be mine. (Not much longer would you be mine) Oh, I heard it through the grapevine. (Heard it through the grapevine) Oh, and I am, and I am just about lose my mind. Ah, boom, boom, boom,...(ect.) Dennis: People say believe half of what you see. Oh, and none of what you hear. Whoa, I jus' can't help being confused. If it's true please tell me dear. Eddie: Do you plan to let me go For the other guy you left me for Don't you know that I heard it through the grapevine. (Heard it through the grapevine) Not much longer would you be mine. (Heard it, heard it, I heard it, yes I heard it) Oh, I heard it through the grapevine. (Heard it, heard it, I heard it, yes I heard it) Oh, heard it through the grapevine.(Heard it, heard it, I heard it, yes I heard it) I heard it through the grapevine. (Heard it, heard it, I heard it, yes I heard it) Woo, I heard it through the grapevine. (Heard it, heard it, I heard it, yes I heard it) I heard it through the grapevine. (Heard it, heard it, I heard it, yes I heard it) Oh, heard it throught the grapevine.(Heard it, heard it, I heard it, yes I heard it) |

You played hookie from school and you can't go out to play, yeah!
Mama said, "For the rest of the week, in your room you gotta stay, yeah!" Now you feel like the whole world's pickin'[ on you, But deep down inside, you know it ain't true. You're in punishment 'cause your mother wants to raise you in the right way, yeah! But you don't care, 'cause you already made up your mind you wanna run away yeah! You're on your way, Runaway Child, Running Wild, Runaway Child Running Wild, Better go back home where you belong. Roaming through the city going nowhere fast, you're on your own at last, Hey! It's gettin' late. Where will you sleep? You're gettin' kinda hungry, you forgot to bring something to eat. Oh, lost with no money you start to cry, But remember, you left home wantin' to be grown, so dry your weeping eyes. Sirens screamin' down neon lighted streets. You want your mama. Run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run. Are they looking for you? You're frightened and confused. I want my mama. Run, run, run, run, run, run, run, but she's much too far away, she can't hear a word you say. You've heard some frightening news on the radio, about little boys running away from home, And the parents don't see them no more. You wanna stop to hitch a ride, I know, But your mama told you never trust a stranger And you don't know which way to go. Streets are dark and deserted, not a sound nor sign of life. How you long to hear your mother's voice, 'cause you're lost and alone. But remember, you made the choice, Runaway Child Running Wild. You better go back home where you belong, Oh, Runaway Child Running Wild, You better go back home where you belong. You're lost in this great big city, Go back home where you belong. Not a familiar face, ain't it a pity, Go back home where you belong. Runaway Child, Running Wild, You better go home where you belong. |

Ow, people gather round me, it's whom it may concern.
I'm not trying to run your life. But you're never too old to learn, huh. Stop worrying about your neighbors and the fancy things they got. 'Cause if you do you'll find it sure, you're gonna wind up on the spot. Don't let the Jones Don't let the Jone: Get you down, oh down. One more time. Don't let the Joneses Don't let the Jones Don't let the Joneses Get you down, oh down. Woo, woo oh oh oh Huh, you may not believe it but nine times out of ten it's true. The people you're trying to keep up with Are trying to keep up too. Remember that old saying, "All that glitters ain't gold". Take heed, don't ignore it until your money time will hold. Oh Don't let the Jones Don't let the Jones Don't let the Joneses Get you down, oh down. Hear me now, now. Don't let the Joneses Don't let the Jones Don't let the Joneses Get you down, oh down. Who-har-har-who-who, Who-har-har-do-do-do-do You're lying to yourself but you don't even know it. You're so busy following the Joneses, you ain't got time to show it. Keeping up with the Joneses, it'll only makes your life a mess. Bill collectors, tranquilizers and getting deeper in debt. You better leave The Joneses alone. Tell 'em one more time. You better leave, oh leave The Joneses alone. Otis: Joneses got a new car today. Here's what you should say Harray for the Joneses! Instead you worry till your whole head turns gray. Worry 'bout the Joneses. Melvin Remember it's their car and they're the ones who had to pay. So leave Jo-Jo-Joneses alone. Listen, your car might be old, but remember it never fails to get you where you want to go. Oh, don't let the Jones Don't let the Jones Don't let the Joneses Get you down, oh down. Hear me now, now. Don't let the Joneses Don't let the Jones Don't let the Joneses Get you down, oh down. Do do do do do do You're doing fine. Don't let the Joneses get you down. Now listen, if you see something you want and you know you can't afford it, The very next thing for you to do is start saving towards it. The Joneses have been a downfall for many persons, you see. So people, take my advice and let the Joneses be. Ow. Don't let the Jones Don't let the Jones Don't let the Joneses Get you down, oh down. Hear me now, now. Don't let the Joneses Don't let the Jones Don't let the Joneses Get you down, oh down. You're doing fine. Don't let the Joneses get you down. (Who) You're doing fine. Don't let the Joneses get you down. (Who) Do do do do do do Boom-boom-boom-boom |

Yes, my skin is black, But that's no reason to hold me back. [Eddie] Why don't you think about it? Think about it, think about it, think about it, Think about it... I have wants and desires, Just like you. So move on the side, 'Cause I'm comin' through, oh! [Temptations] No matter how hard you try, You can't stop me now. [Eddie and Temptations] No matter how hard you try, You can't stop me now, oooh... [Melvin] Yes, your skin is white... Does that make you right? [Eddie] Why don't you think about it? Think about it, think about it, think about it, Think about it... This is a message, A message to y'all: Together we stand, Divided we fall, oh! [Dennis] Black is a color, Just like white. Tell me: how can a color determine whether You're wrong or right? We all have our faults... Yes we do. [Eddie] So look in your mirror. [Temptations] Look in the mirror. [Eddie] What do you see? [Temptations] What do you see? [Eddie] Two eyes. [Temptations] Two eyes. [Eddie] A nose, and a mouth, just like me, oh! [Eddie] Your eyes are open, But you refuse to see, The laws of society Were made for both you, and me. Because of my color, I struggle to be free. Sticks and stones, May break my bones, But in the end, You're gonna' see my friend, oh! [Temptations] No matter how hard you try, You can't stop me now. [Temptations] Say it loud! No matter how hard you try, You can't stop me now. |

Kumba ya-ya
Oh my soul, of my whole ya-ya-ya Price so right, my whole ya-ya-ya Born into this world a baby, You're mind is clear as the air Time passes... You learn to walk and talk Time passes... You learn right from wrong Time passes... You leave home seeking a life Of your own... I'm tellin' you the natural facts For way this world Listen to me people... You make your own heavens and hell Right here on earth I'm tellin' you the natural facts For way this world You make you own heaven and hell Right here on earth On earth, on earth, on earth... Time passess... And your values change Life becomes a strange, confusing game Suddenly you want the finer things in life But you find it takes a lots of hard work Now you're standing At the crossroads of life To satisfy your personal wants... Will you do wrong Or will you do right? Well one thing you must admit, And you know it's true The final decision, Is still up to you I'm tellin' you the natural facts For way this world Listen to me people... You make your own heaven and hell Right here on earth Let me tell you one more time... I'm tellin' you the natural facts For way this world You make your own heaven and hell Right here on earth Listen people... Life is a giant, invisible scale with two sides; Good and bad You and your beliefs Are the weights The things you do each day Determine the balance Your conscience is a flawless Judge and jury; The only question is what you want I'm tellin' you |

Ooo
Each day through my window I watch her as she passes by. I say to myself, you're such a lucky guy. To have a girl like her is truly a dream come true. Out of all the fellas in the world, she belongs to me. But it was just my 'magination, running away with me. It was just my 'magination, running away with me. (Soon) Soon we'll be married and raise a family. (Oh, yeah) A cozy little home out in the country with two children, maybe three. I tell you, I can visualize it all. This couldn't be a dream, for too real it all seems. But it was just my 'magination, once again. Running away with me. Tell you it was just my 'magination, Running away with me. Paul: Every night on my knees I pray. Dear Lord, hear my plea. Don't ever let another take her love from me. Or I will surely die. Hmm (Her love is) heavenly. When her arms enfold me. I hear a tender rhapsody. But in reality, she doesn't even know me. Just my 'magination, once again. Running away with me. Oh, tell you it was just my 'magination, Running away with me. I never met her but I can't forget her. Just my 'magination, Ooo yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Running away with me. Ooo, just my 'magination running away with me. She's in my mind and hard to find. Just my 'magination... |

Night and day, you are the one
Only you, beneath the moon, under the sun. Whether near to me, or far, It's no matter, darling, where you are I think of you night and day. Night and day day and night why's it so, That this longin' for you follows wherever I go? In the roaring traffic's boom, In the silence of my lonely room I think of you night and day. Night and day, under the hide of me There's an oh such a hungry yearning burning inside of me And this torment won't be through, Till you let me spend my life makin love to you Day and night, Night and day Only you, beneath the moon, under the sun. Whether near to me, or far, It's no matter, darling, where you are I think of you night and day. Night and day, under the hide of me There's an oh such a hungry yearning burning inside of me And this torment won't be through, Till you let me spend my life makin love to you Day and night, Night and day |

SOME ENCHANTED EVENING
Writers Richard Rodgers, Oscar Hammerstein 11 Some enchanted evening you may see a stranger You may see a stranger across a crowded room And somehow you know, you know even then That somewhere you'll see her again and again Some enchanted evening, someone may be laughing You may hear her laughing across a crowded room And night after night, as strange as it seems The sound of her laughter will sing in your dreams Who can explain it, who can tell you why Fools give you reasons, wise men never try Some enchanted evening, when you find your true love When you feel her call you across a crowded room Then fly to her side and make her your own Or all through your life you may dream all alone Once you have found her, never let her go Once you have found her, never let her go |

TIME AFTER TIME
WRITERS SAMMY CAHN, JULE STYNE What good are words I say to you? They can't convey to you what's in my heart If you could hear instead The things I've left unsaid Time after time I tell myself that I'm So lucky to be loving you So lucky to be The one you run to see In the evening, when the day is through I only know what I know The passing years will show You've kept my love so young, so new And time after time You'll hear me say that I'm So lucky to be loving you I only know what I know The passing years will show You've kept my love so young, so new And time after time You'll hear me say that I'm So lucky to be loving you Lucky to be loving you |

WHAT A DIFFERENCE A DAY MAKES
WRITERS STANLEY ADAMS, MARIA GREVER What a diff'rence a day makes Twenty-four little hours Brought the sun and the flowers Where there used to be rain My yesterday was blue, dear Today I'm part of you, dear My lonely nights are through, dear Since you said you were mine What a diff'rence a day makes There's a rainbow before me Skies above can't be stormy Since that moment of bliss, that thrilling kiss It's heaven when you Find romance on your menu What a diff'rence a day makes And the difference is you What a diff'rence a day makes There's a rainbow before me Skies above can't be stormy Since that moment of bliss, that thrilling kiss It's heaven when you Find romance on your menu What a diff'rence a day makes And the difference is you. |

It was the third of September That day I'll always remember, yes I will 'Cause that was the day that my daddy died I never had a chance to see him Never heard nothin' but bad things about him Mama I'm depending on you to tell me the truth Mama looked up and said son Papa was a rolling stone Wherever he laid his hat was his home And when he died all he left us was alone Mama is it true what they say That papa never worked a day in his life? And mama there's some bad talk goin' round town That papa had three out-side children And another wife, and that ain't right Heard some talk about papa Doin' some store-front prechin' Talking about saving souls and all the time leaching Dealin' in dirt and stealing in the name of the Lord Mama looked up and said son Papa was a rolling stone Wherever he laid his hat was his home And when he died all he left us was alone I heard papa call himself a jack of all trades Tell me is that what sent papa to an early grave? Folks say papa would beg, borrow or steal To pay his bills Hey mama, folks say papa wasn't much on thinkin' Spent most of his time chasing women and drinkin' Mama I'm depending on you to tell me the truth Papa was a rolling stone Wherever he laid his hat was his home And when he died all he left us was alone |

I watch you go to church on Sunday
But you forget all you learned on Monday You see your smiling face can't hide How you hate your brother inside So Ima telling you Run, Charlie, run Look! The niggers are coming! (The niggers are coming?!) Run, Charlie, run Look! The niggers are coming! (The niggers are coming?!) You built this great big beautiful city But you ran away and left it to die. What a pity. You could have made friends with your neighbor But you are much too prejudiced to try; tell me why! So Ima telling you Run, Charlie, run Look! The niggers are coming! (The niggers are coming?!) Run, Charlie, run Look! The niggers are coming! (The niggers are coming?!) But the greatest wrong you know you've done Is you passed this sickness onto your son (your one and only boy) He came into this world with a mind so clean You took it, molded it, and made it mean! So Ima telling you Run, Charlie, run Look! The niggers are coming! (The niggers are coming?!) Run, Charlie, run Look! The niggers are coming! (The niggers are coming?!) |

THE FIRST TIME EVER I SAW YOUR FACE
WRITER EWAN MacCOLL The first time ever I saw your face I thought the sun rose in your eyes And the moon and stars were the gifts you gave To the dark and the empty skies, my love, To the dark and the empty skies. The first time ever I kissed your mouth And felt your heart beat close to mine Like the trembling heart of a captive bird That was there at my command, my love That was there at my command. The first time ever I lay with you I felt the earth move in my hand I thought our joy would fill the earth And last 'till the end of time, my love, And last |

Your love is fadin' I feel it fade
Ah, your love is fadin' I feel it fade Ah, your love is fadin' Woman I feel it fade Ah, woman, woman your touch, your touch has gone cold As if someone else controls your very soul I've fooled myself long as I can Can feel the presence of another man It's there when you speak my name It's just not the same Ooh babe, I'm losing you It's in the air It's there everywhere Baby, baby, babe, I'm Losing you When I look into your eyes A reflection of a face, I see I'm hurt, down-hearted and worried, girl 'Cause that face doesn't belong to me It's all over your face Someone's takin my place Ooo baby, I'm losing you You try hard to hide The emptiness you feel inside Oo babe, I'm losing you I can't bear the thought of losing you Ah woman, can't you see what I'm goin' through I'm losin' my mind (losin' my mind) And it's all because of you I can't bear the thought of losing you I'm losin' my mind (losin' my mind) And It's all because of you I can't stand the thought of losing you. |

JUST ONE LAST LOOK
WRITERS LAMONT DOZIER, BRIAN AND EDDIE HOLLAND Stop right there. Let me picture you in my mind for the last time. Soon you'll be walking out of my life. Let me gaze upon you for the last time. I need something to hold on to. Something to carry me through. All I need is one last look before you go. So I'll have memories where ever I go. One last look before you're gone. So in my heart you'll live on and on. Just one last look before we part. So memories of you will fill my heart. Let me remember my whole life through. 'Cause my happiest days, I've spent with you. I remember your eyes that was my treasure. Your tender lips that brought me pleasure. Oh, loving you, I don't regret. And all these things I don't want to forget. How being without you will be hard to do. But I want, I want what's best for you. I rather see you happy with someone new, baby. Than to bring, bring sorrow to you. As you leave. If you see tears in my eyes, just keep on walking. Don't you worry. All these tears you see, are tears of joy. The joy of loving you and knowing you'd loved me. It's given me enough happiness, so true. To last my whole life through. Just one last look before you go. Let sweet memories overflow. So the thought of you will live on and on. Long after, after you're gone. If I never see your face again. Never feel your, your embrace again. The happiness I've known with you, Will stay with me, baby. My whole through. Just, just one last look before we part. Just one last look to fill my heart. Just one last look... |
