Keb Mo' - Whole Nutha' Thang

I don't care much about cocaine
And you never see me jumpin' out no airplane
Wine and whisky don't gimme no thrill
And I don't care nothin' 'bout them nasty little pills

But women now that's a whole 'nother thing

You won't see me wastin' all the money I made
And you ain't gonna never see me drive no escalade
If you're looking for a handout you wastin' your time
I wouldn't give a crutch to a cripple, I wouldn't give a bum a dime

But women that's a whole 'nother thing

Now when you talk about your women that's a whole 'nother thing
I like 'em big tall short fat thin and in between
I like 'em when they're gentle and I like 'em when they're mean
I like 'em when they whisper but I love 'em when they scream

(Don't be tellin' me what to do with my money
I know a good investment when I see one
Look over there walkin' by look at that...)

I don't buy stock, I don't place no bets
And I won't be smokin' none of them stanky cigarettes
Only one think make me throw my money away
And that's a little TLC and a little T&A

But women that's a whole 'nother thing
I'm gonna say it again - women that's a whole 'nother thing

Play the blues somebody...

(Come here baby let me buy you a house)

Boston Four Play/Shiny Objects Sunday

[Foreplay]

[Instrumental]

[Long Time]

It's been such a long time
I think I should be goin', yeah
And time doesn't wait for me
It keeps on rollin'

Sail on, on a distant highway, yeah
I've got to keep on chasin' a dream
I've gotta be on my way
Wish there was something I could say

Well, I'm takin' my time, I'm just movin' along
You'll forget about me after I've been gone
And I take what I find, I don't want no more
It's just outside of your front door

Ah yeah yeah yeah
It's been such a long time
It's been such a long time
Hey

Well I get so lonely
When I am without you-ooo
But in my mind, deep in my mind
I can't forget about you, ohh

Now good times
And faces that remind me, yeah
I'm tryin' to forget your name
And leave it all behind me
You're comin' back to find me

Well, I'm takin' my time, I'm just movin' along
You'll forget about me after I've been gone
And I take what I find, I don't want no more
It's just outside of your front door

Yeah yeah yeah, hey
It's been such a long time
It's been such a long time

Yeah, it's been such a long time
I think I should be goin', yeah
And time doesn't wait for me
It keeps on rollin'

There's a long road
I've gotta stay in time with, yeah
I've got to keep on chasin' that dream
Though I may never find it
I'm always just behind it, oo ooo

Well, I'm takin' my time, I'm just movin' along
Takin' my time, oh, just movin' along
Takin' my time, ohh, I'm takin' my time
Takin' my time, yeah
Takin' my time
Takin' my time
Takin' my time (takin' my time)
Takin' my time (oh just takin' my time)
Takin' my time (just outside-a your front door)
Takin' my time

Well, we were just another band out of Boston
On the road to try to make ends meet
Playin' all the bars, sleepin' in our cars
And we practiced right on out in the street
No, we didn't have much money
We barely made enough to survive
But when we got up on stage and got ready to play
People came alive

Rock and roll band
Everybody's waitin'
Gettin' crazy
Anticipating love and music
Play, play, play, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Dancin' in the streets of Hyannis
We were getting pretty good at the game
People stood in line and didn't seem to mind
You know everybody knew our name
Livin' on rock-n-roll music
Never worry 'bout the things we were missing
When we got up on the stage and got ready to play
Everybody'd listen

Rock and roll band
Everybody's waitin'
Gettin' crazy
Anticipating love and music
Play, play, play, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Playin' for a week in Rhode Island
A man came to the stage one night
He smoked a big cigar
Drove a Cadillac car
And said, "Boys, I think this band's outta-sight
Sign a record company contract
You know I've got great expectations
When I hear you on the car radio
You're goin' to be a sensation!"

Rock and roll band
Everybody's waitin'
Gettin' crazy
Anticipating love and music
Play, play, play, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

We're gonna play you a song, a little bit of rock-n-roll
You gotta let yourself go, the band's gonna take control
We're gettin' down today
We'll pick you up and take you away
Get down tonight

Smokin', smokin'
We're cookin' tonight, just keep on tokin'
Smokin', smokin'
I feel alright, mamma I'm not jokin', yeah

Get your feet to the floor, everybody rock and roll
You've got nothing to lose just the rhythm and blues, that's all, yeah
We're gonna feel okay
We'll get you up and take you away
Get down tonight

Smokin', smokin'
We're cookin' tonight, just keep on tokin'
Smokin', smokin'
I feel alright, mamma I'm not jokin', yeah

Everyone's jumpin', dancin' to a boogie tonight
Clap your hands, move your feet
If you don't you know it won't seem right
We're gettin' down today
We'll pick you up and take you away
Get down tonight
You know we're gettin' down today
We'll pick you up and take you away
Get down tonight
Alright!

Don't look back (ooh, a new day is breakin')
It's been too long since I felt this way
I don't mind (ooh, where I get taken)
The road is callin', today is the day

I can see, it took so long just to realize
I'm much too strong not to compromise
Now I see what I am is holding me down
I'll turn it around, oh, yes, I will

I finally see the dawn arrivin'
I see beyond the road I'm drivin'

It's a bright horizon (ooh, and I'm awakin' now)
Oh, I see myself in a brand new way
The sun is shinin' (ooh, the clouds are breakin')
'Cause I can't lose now, there's no game to play

I can tell there's no more time left to criticize
I've seen what I could not recognize
Everything in my life was leading me on
But I can be strong, oh, yes, I can

I finally see the dawn arrivin'
I see beyond the road I'm drivin'
Ooh, far away and left behind, left behind

Oh, the sun is shinin' and I'm on that road

Don't look back (ooh, a new day is breakin')
Oh, it's been so long since I felt this way
I don't mind (ooh, where I get taken)
The road is callin', today is the day

I can see, it took so long just to realize
I'm much too strong not to compromise
Now I see what I am is holding me down
I'll turn it around, oh, yes, I will

I finally see the dawn arrivin'
I see beyond the road I'm drivin'
Oh, far away and left behind

Don't look back
Don't look back
Don't look back
Don't look back

So a man when he has done a good act, does not call out for others to come and see, but he goes onto another act , as a vine goes on to produce again the grapes of the season. ~Marcus Aurelius
