You better get it together
Or leave it alone
If you don't want my lovin'
I'll be gone

Get up, get up, get up
Get up off your high horse, girl
Think what you're doing, doin'
Get up off your high horse, girl
Think what you're doin', doin'

I'm spinnin' around on your merry-go-round
You got me dizzy, dizzy, dizzy, dizzy, dizzy

Get it together
Or leave it alone
If you don't want my lovin'
I'll be gone

Now, now, babe

Get it together
Or leave it alone
You better, get it, get it
If you don't want my lovin'
I'll be gone

Get up off your high horse, girl
Think what you're doin', doin'
Get up off your high horse, girl
Think what you're doin', doin'

I can't stand all this confusion
All this shuckin' and jivin'
You're putting down, down, down

Get it together
Or leave it alone
If you don't want my lovin'
I'll be gone
Gone, gone, gone, gone

Big girl what you're doing
Throwin' this heart of mine all away
Oh, big girl you know I love you
To keep a love like mine is hard this day
All ya gotta do, girl

Don't Say Goodbye Again

Girl don't you say
Girl don't you make
Girl don't you make
Make me cry
Make me cry

You had my life
In the palm of your hand
Why you threw it away
I'll never ever understand

You took away the best part
The best part of me
You took away, you
How cruel could you be

You're just another heartache
I've got to learn to take
You're just another habbit
I have to learn to break

Am I alone again
Am I alone again
Am I alone, alone, alone

Don't say goodbye again
Don't say goodbye again
Don't make me cry, cry, cry
Don't say goodbye again
Don't say goodbye again
Don't make me cry, cry, cry, again
Again, again

The more I try the more you hurt me
Why
Tell me why
Tell me why

I can take an aspirin
For a bad headache
But what pill for loneliness can I take

I can seal to you
Just like cellophane
But I need you, baby
Like a star needs fame

You're not another habbit
I have to learn to break
Let's try to patch it up
Before it's too late

I'm in love with you
I'm in love with you
I'm in love, in love, in love

Don't say goodbye again
Don't say goodbye again
Don't make me cry, cry, cry
Don't say goodbye again
Don't say goodbye again
Don't make me cry, cry, cry, again

The more I try the more you hurt me
Why
Tell me why
Tell me why

Reflections

Through the mirror of my mind
Time after time
I see reflections of you and me

(reflections of)
The way life used to be
(reflections of)
The love you took from me, oh

I'm all alone now
No love to shield me
Trapped in a world that's a distorted reality

Happiness you took from me
And left me all alone
With only memories

Through the mirror of my mind
Through these tears that I'm crying
Refelts a hurt I can't control

(Cause although your gone)
I keep holding on
(To the happy times)
Oh, when you were mine

(All the love)
All the love that I've wasted
(All the tears)
All the tears that I've tasted
All in vain

Through the hollow of my tears
I see a dream thats lost
From the hurt girl
That you've caused

Everwhere I turn
Seems like everything I see
Reflects the love that used to be

(Reflections)
The love you took from me
(Reflections)
In you I put all my faith and trust
(Reflections)
Right before my eyes my world has turned to dust
(Reflections)
The way life used to be
(Reflections)
The love you took from me

Mama Got A Brand New Thing (Don't Say No)

Sunday morning, I heard Mama pray
From her room I heard her say
"Good Lord, help my son find his way.
Lord, he just a country boy
He thinks the world's a great big toy
There ain't nothing he can't do (if he wants to).

He got himself a part-time job
Saved his money and bought him a guitar
Plays from sunup to sundown (hey, hey, hey).
(He don't wanna) go to school no more,
Won't do his household chores
But I'ma admit, the neighbors dig his sound (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah).

(He) got some some big ideas
Now he's talkin' 'bout leaving here
Going to a place called New York City
He's done told me,
'Mama, got a brand new thing. Don't say no. Let me go.' "

Mama said, "My son, my son, you're only sixteen
I know being a star is your dream
But I think it's time you stop all this foolin', and get to your schoolin'!"
When I'm in a state of frustration
Don't start preachin' that education 'cause
This guitar gon' make me a king

Above everything else, listen!...

Donned from head to toe
First class everywhere we go
Just give me a chance to do my thing

Mama, got a brand new thing. Don't say no. Let me go.
(Got a burnin' down deep inside, I wanna see my name's in lights
Please, please, please, let me go)
I can see it now...

Champagne and caviar
A black limousine, chauffeured car
Trips all around the world
And I have my choice of any girl!
People lined up as far as you can see,
Standing in line just to see me
Money stacked, clean up to the sky
Mom, ain't nothing that we can't buy
Have a little faith in me
And mama, I'm sure that you will see
That your son and his guitar are gonna go far!

Mama, got a brand new thing. Don't say no. Let me go.
Mama...

I gotta brand new thing
(Oh I) Gotta brand new thing (It's alright)

Tell me do you like my thing
(It's alright; I believe I like it; Do you like it)

If you like it, let me see you move
If you like it, let me see you groove
Let me see you move
Let me see you groove
Let's groove

Wait a minute!
I believe I'm ready to give you some help now
(We got a brand new thing, oh, we got a brand new thing)
Here it is!

Mama, got a brand new thing. Don't say no. Let me go.

It's Too Late To Change The Time

Too Late
Too Late
Too Late

In this automatic age
We shop through the yellow page
Gone is the corner store
There is a supermarket there for you
People get a way to change
But feelings remain the same

And it's too late, too late to change the time
Well it's too late, too late to change the time
And it's too late, too late to change the time
But it's not too late to change your mind (too late)

It's a new day, a new age
A photograph is taken, its ready one minute later
Cars are bigger and better
But the manufacturers satisfied never
In world full of crime
I can't let you take that ride

And it's too late, too late to change the time
And it's too late, too late to change the time
And it's too late, too late to change the time
But it's not too late to change your mind (too late)
No, no

So you wanna be a star
I really think you are
You don't have to go further
Than my loving arms

And it's too late, too late to change the time
But it's not too late (too late) to change your mind

Are you sure you wanna go to New York City (New York City)
Where girls make it big if their pretty (if their pretty)
Let say you get that penthouse view
But whose gonna love you the way I do (just the way I do)

It's too late, too late to change the time
And it's too late, too late to change the time
No, too late, too late to change the time
But it's not too late (too late) to change your mind
Yea, yea, yea

And it's too late, too late to change the time
It's too late, too late to change the time
Ooh, too late, too late to change the time
But it's not too late (too late) to change your mind
Yea, yea, yea

Too late, too late

You Need Love Like I Do (Don't You?)

You need it (you need it)
Like I need it (like I need it)
I need it (I need it)
Like you need it

Ohhh (ohh)
Well (well, well, well, well)

Seems like it was only yesterday (well)
When my momma told me don't fall in love with the first girl that comes your way
She was charming and nice, but I took her advice and passed her by (well)
Years are passing don't look like loves gonna give me a second try

Girl the look on your face tells me you understand (well)
Mmm, could it be your love life, like mine, needs a helping hand?

Well you need love like I do, don't you?
Girl, I can tell by the way you look when I'm looking at you

I know it ain't fit and proper for a boy to talk this way
But I can't cope with this loneliness not one more doggon' day
Everyday has been an uphill climb, keeping my hopes afloat
But judging from your silence girl
You must be in the same boat, ain't it true now

You need love like I do, don't you?
Girl, I can tell by the way you look when I'm looking at you
Well, well, well, you need love like I do, don't you?
Girl, it seems like I'm looking in the mirror when I'm looking at you

I can understand a person being without money (well)
But there sure ain't no reason for a person to be without love (well)
It's true, now you're a girl and I'm a guy (well)
So come on lets give love a try

I'm telling you girl
You need love like I do, don't you?
I can tell by the way you look when I'm looking at you
Girl finding true love is a dream, that everyone wants to come true
Can't you see that it's up to us to make this dream come true

You need love like I do, don't you? (oh yeah)
I can tell by the way you look when I'm looking at you
You need love like I do, don't you?
I can tell by the way you look when I'm looking at you
You need love like I do, don't you?

Ain't it true?
Ain't it true?
Ain't it true? Yeah!

You need love like I do, don't you?
I can tell by the way you look when I'm looking at you
You need love like I do, don't you?
I can tell by the way you look when I'm looking at you
You need love like I do, don't you?
I can tell by the way you look when I'm looking at you
You need love like I do, don't you?
I can tell by the way you look when I'm looking at you
You need love like I do, don't you?
I can tell by the way you look when I'm looking at you
