| Yes you fooled around and you fell in love
|
| Honey I tell you so Yes you fooled around and you fell in love
|
| (* repeat)
|
| Boy you came along
|
| And you took my heart
|
| Gave it quite a start
|
| You had a love, fit like a glove
|
| Yes, it was the perfect love
|
| Don’t get me wrong
|
| But I’ve heard that song
|
| I’ve seen that dance
|
| And I know romance
|
| All this to say it’s a new day
|
| I’ve spoken to the owl
|
| The jig is up
|
| (* repeat 2 times)
|
| Now there you go You found a toy that brings you joy
|
| The love I feel — it still remains
|
| But you’re not the same
|
| I see the change
|
| You’ve been acting strange
|
| I feel the pain
|
| I can’t stand the strain
|
| What can I do
|
| I still love you
|
| Wanting you, needing you
|
| Holding you, loving you
|
| (* repeat 4 times)
|
| I’M A GOOD GIRL EASY STREET PRETTY BABY
|
| (*) Oh what is this feeling I feel
|
| I don’t like it — no Honey I don’t know what’s come over me I mustn’t lose control
|
| You see I’m a good girl
|
| Oh what is this feeling I feel
|
| I don’t like it — no Honey I don’t know what’s come over me I mustn’t lose control of my senses
|
| Even when I don’t want to baby
|
| I can’t stop the feelin'
|
| It just seems to happen
|
| And even when I don’t need to baby
|
| I can’t help myself
|
| You always seem to win
|
| (* repeat)
|
| Even when I first met you boy
|
| I knew it’d be good but never like this
|
| And even when you’re so bad
|
| I can’t hurt you no 'cause
|
| I just hurt myself
|
| (* repeat 2 times ad lib)
|
| (*) Easy Street
|
| The sidewalk’s cleaner
|
| Easy Street
|
| The grass is greener
|
| Easy Street, Easy Street
|
| I’ve spent some time on lonely street
|
| Right 'crosstown that’s where I used to be When I fell by the wayside you see
|
| I got wrapped up in me
|
| And moved to only street
|
| I was searching high and low
|
| Looking for a place to go
|
| I caught the bus of opportunity
|
| Hopped into the front seat
|
| And I got off on
|
| (* repeat 2 times)
|
| Poundin' down the meanest streets
|
| And my stomach’s wonderin'
|
| Where am I gonna get my next meal
|
| Been handed quite a deal
|
| My cycle’s incomplete
|
| I had corns on my feet
|
| From the hours I walked the beat
|
| I’d like to drop it from my memory
|
| I found a way in me to wake the dead end
|
| (* repeat 5 times and fade)
|
| (*) Pretty Baby grew into a lady
|
| The people don’t know what your mama know
|
| They don’t
|
| Pretty Baby
|
| In the light of the dawn
|
| A pretty babe was born
|
| Her mother she had sworn to take good care of her
|
| Every night mom would pray
|
| Her life would not be torn
|
| Her clothes would not be worn
|
| Until they dropped off of her
|
| My child, you dear, don’t have no fear
|
| I’ll shed the tears, keep your head clear
|
| My Pretty Baby
|
| (* repeat)
|
| Little girl I want you to attend the finest schools
|
| And never be a fool
|
| I’ve got experience
|
| Learn all that you can
|
| You’ll find that in the end
|
| You’ll learn how to depend on yourself
|
| It makes me glad you have the things I didn’t have
|
| Never be sad, my Pretty Baby
|
| (* repeat)
|
| The people don’t know what your mama know
|
| They don’t
|
| (repeat 4 times)
|
| Pretty Baby grew into a lady
|

| The people don’t know what your mama know
