1-just your fool

I'm just your fool, can't help myself
I love you baby, and no one else
I ain't crazy, you are my baby
I'm just your fool

I'm just your fool, I must confess
To still love you baby, and take your mess
I ain't lyin', no use a jivin'
I'm just your fool

(harp solo)

You must be tryin' to drive me crazy
Treat me the way you do
I ax you please have mercy baby
Let me be happy too

If you gonna leave me, for someone new
Gonna buy me a shotgun, shoot it at you
I ain't lyin', no use a jivin'
I'm just your fool

I'm just your fool, can't help myself
I love you baby, and no one else
I ain't crazy, you are my baby
I'm just your fool

2-Shattered Dreams

Shattered dreams of days gone by
Makes me want to sit right down and cry
All the plans I had and what it turned to
Just shattered dreams

Yesterday was long ago
When I first met you you were my dream
All in vain and it only brought me pain
Yes and shattered dreams

Your goodbye shattered it all
For early this morning blues brought me a call
Now all I had is gone and all that´s left
Is my shattered dreams

Shattered dreams

Shattered dreams baby

Shattered dreams
Shattered dreams
Shattered dreams

Shattered dreams
My shattered dreams

My shattered dreams

4-romance in the dark

In the dark, it´s just you and
There´s not a sound, there´s not one sigh
Just the beat of my poor heart
In the dark

Now, in the dark, I get such a thrill
When he puts his fingertips upon my lips
And he begs me, please, please, be still
in the dark

But soon this dance will be ending
And you´re gonna find, you´re gonna be missed
Gee, but I´m not pretending
Cause I swear, I swear, it´s fun
It´s fun, it´s fun to be kissed in the dark

Now, we will find
What the rest what the rest have left behind
Junt let them dance ´cause we´ll find romance
In the dark

In the dark, I get such a thrill
When he puts his fingertips on my lips
And he begs me to please, be still, be still
In the dark

Oh, but soon this dance will be ending
And you´re gonna be missed
Gee, but I´m not pretending
Cause I swear, I swear, it´s fun
It´s fun, fun to be kissed in the dark

Now, we will find
What the rest what the rest have left behind
Junt let them dance cause we´ll find romance
In the dark, yes

5- How Blue Can You Get?

Been downhearted baby
ever since the day we met
I've been downhearted baby
ever since the day we met
Our love is nothin' but the blues
Baby how blue can you get

My love is like a fire
Your love is like a cigaret
My love is like a fire
But baby yours is like a cigaret
I watch you step down on it baby and crush it
Tell me how, tell me how, how blue can you get

You're evil when I'm with you
and you're jealous when we're apart
Yes you're evil when I'm with you baby
Lord have mercy, you're jealous when we're apart
How blue can you get
Hey that's a writing in my heart

I gave you a brand new Ford
and you just said I want a Cadillac
I bought you a ten dollar dinner
You said Thanks for the snack
I let you live in my penthouse
You said it was just a shack
I gave you seven children
and now you wanna give 'em back

I've been downhearted baby
ever since the day we met
Our love is nothin' but the blues
Baby how blue can you get

6- Down Don't Bother Me

I´ve been down so long
You know down don´t bother me

I´ve been down so long
You know down don´t bother me
Gonna take all my troubles
And cast ´em in the deep blue sea

I work hard every day
I come straight home at night
And no matter how hard i try
Y´know you never wanna treat me right

I´ve been down so long
You know down don´t bother me
I´m gonna take all my troubles
And cast ´em in the deep blue sea

I bought you a nice coat for christmas
And a diamond ring
And now you´ve got the nerve to tell me
My love don´t mean a thing

I´ve been down so long
´til down don´t bother me
I´m gonna cast all my worries
And take ´em to the deep blue sea

I work hard every day
I come straight home at night
And no matter how i try i try
You never wanna treat me right

I´ve been down so long
You know down don´t bother me
I´m gonna cast all my worries
And take ´em to the deep blue sea

7-Don't Cry No More

Don't cry no more
Wipe away your tears
Don't cry no more, baby
Wipe away your tears

And I know, I know
That your love is real

Don't cry, don't cry
I'm begging you
Don't cry no more, baby
I'm begging you

Every tear you shed
Tells me that your love is true

You cried me a river
You cried me a sea
Now I believe without a doubt
That you really, really
Really love me

You cried me a river
You cried me a sea
Now I believe without a doubt
That you really, really
Really love me

Don't cry no more
Wipe away your tears
Don't cry no more, baby
Wipe away your tears

Now I know, I know
That your love is real
I don't want you to cry
I don't want you to cry

It's summertime
And the living is easy
I don't want you to cry

8- Rollin' And Tumblin'

Well, I rolled and I tumbled,
Cried the whole night long.
Well, I rolled and I tumbled,
Cried the whole night long.
Well, I woke up this mornin,
Didn't know right from wrong.

Well, I told my baby,
Before I left that town.
Well, I told my baby,
Before I left that town.
Well, don't you let nobody,
Tear my barrelhouse down.

Well, ahh, mmm-hmmm,
Owww, oww ooo, aww, oww, oh.
Aaa, mmm-hmmm, oww, oh oh oh
Owww, oww ooo, aww, oww, oh.

Well, if the river was whiskey,
And I was a divin duck.
Well, if the river was whiskey,
And I was a divin duck.
Well, I would dive to the bottom,
Never would I come up.

Well, I could a had a religion,
This bad old thing instead.
Well, I could a had a religion,
This bad old thing instead.
Well, all whiskey and women,
Would not let me pray.

9-Down So Low

When you went away I cried for so long
I wanted you to stay but that was all wrong
The pain you left behind has become a part of me
And it's burnin' out a hole where my love used to be

But it's not losin' you
That's got me down so low
I just can't find another man
To take your place

Now you know I love you but that wasn't enough
We both fell apart when things got too rough
I've learned how to give now, but what good does it do?
When no one can touch me the way you used to do

But it's not losin' you
That's got me down so low
I just can't find another man
To take your place

Now I know that your opinion of me isn't too good
But please try to understand I would change if I could
And now this coldness inside is starting to build
A woman can't be a woman unless she's fulfilled

But it's not losin' you
That's got me down so low
I just can't find another man
To take your place

'Cause no one can...

10-Mother Earth

You may high five me all the time
You may never go my way
Mother Earth is layin´ for you
´Cause there´s a debt you´ve got to pay

I don´t care how rich you are
I don´t care what you´re worth
When it all comes down
You´ve got to go back to Mother Earth

You may own half a city
Diamonds and pearls
You may buy an airplane, baby,
And fly all over this world

I don´t care how great you are
I don´t care what you´re worth
When it all comes up
You´ve got to go back to Mother Earth

You may play the racehorses
You may own a racetrack
You may have enough money, baby,
To buy anything you like

I don´t care how great you are
I don´t care what you´re worth
When it all goes up
You´ve got to go back to Mother Earth

You may play the racehorses
You may own your own track
You may have enough money
To buy anything you like

I don´t care how great you are
No, I don´t care what you´re worth
When it all comes up
You´ve got to go back to Mother Earth

11- Crossroads

I went to the crossroads
Fell down on my knees
I went to the crossroads
Fell down on my knees
I asked the lord above
"Have mercy on poor me, if you please"

Standing at the crossroad
Tried to flag a ride
I went down to the crossroad
Tried to flag a ride
Didn´t nobody seem to know me but
Everybody passed me by

Standing at the crossroad, baby
Rising sun going down
I´m standing at the crossroad, baby
See the rising sun going down, down
I believe in my soul, now
Poor me, poor me is sinking down

You can run, you can run
Just tell my friend Willie Brown
You can run, you can run
Just tell my friend Willie Brown

That I got the crossroad blues
This morning, Lord, baby
And I´m slowly sinking down
Down, down, down, down, down

And I went down to the crossroad
And I looked east and west
I went to the crossroad, baby
I looked east I looked west
Lord, I didn´t have me no sweet man
To hold me in my distress
