This Time

This time
I wont show Im vulnerable
This time
I wont give in first
This time
I will hold out with my love
This time
I will not be hurt
Im gonna love myself
More than anyone else
Im gonna treat me right
Im gonna make you say
That you love me first
And youll be the one with the most to lose tonight
This time
This time
I wont let my emotions rule my life
This time
Im gonna keep my heart locked safe inside
This time

Talkin Bout A Revolution

Dont you know
Theyre talkin bout a revolution
It sounds like a whisper
Dont you know
Theyre talkin about a revolution
It sounds like a whisper
While theyre standing in the welfare lines
Crying at the doorsteps of those armies of salvation
Wasting time in the unemployment lines
Sitting around waiting for a promotion
Poor people gonna rise up
And get their share
Poor people gonna rise up
And take whats theirs
Dont you know
You better run, run, run...
Oh I said you better
Run, run, run...
Finally the tables are starting to turn
Talkin bout a revolution

Shes Got Her Ticket

Shes got her ticket
I think she gonna use it
I think she going to fly away
No one should try and stop her
Persuade her with their power
She says that her mind is made
Up
Why not leave why not
Go away
Too much hatred
Corruption and greed
Give your life
And invariably they leave you with
Nothing
Young girl aint got no chances
No roots to keep her strong
Shes shed all pretenses
That someday shell belong
Some folks call her a runaway
A failure in the race

Goodbye

For you
Its all in a day
One day in a life
Its all in the one word
The one word is goodbye
For me
Its all in what you say
Though youve tried to be kind
Its all in the words
From the lips that once touched mine with a sigh
Goodbye
For you
Its all in your face
The laugh and worry lines
Its all in the one word
You hope will make you young again
Goodbye
Its all in the play
Someone speaks the line
Its all in the one word

O Holy Night

O holy night the stars are brightly shining
It is the night of our dear saviors birth
Long lay the world in sin and error pining
Till he appeared and the soul felt its worth
A thrill of hope, the weary world rejoices
For yonder breaks a new glorious morn
Fall on your knees
O hear the angels voices
O night divine
O night when christ was born
O night divine, o night
O night divine
A thrill of hope, the weary world rejoices
For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn
Fall on your knees
O hear the angels voices
O night divine
O night when christ was born
O night divine, o night
O night divine

Born To Fight

Theyre tryin to take away my pride
By stripping me of everyhing I own
Theyre tryin to hurt me inside
And make me into a white mans drone
But this ones not for sale
And I was born to fight
I aint been knocked down yet
I was born to fight
Im the surest bet
There aint no man no woman
No beast alive that can beat me
cause Im born to fight
Theyre tryin to dig into my soul
And take away the spirit of my god
Theyre tryin to take control
And monitor my every thought
I wont let down my guard
And I was born to fight
I aint been knocked down yet
I was born to fight

House Of The Rising Sun

There is a house in new orleans
They call the rising sun
And its been the ruin of many a poor boy
And God I know Im one
My mother was a tailor
She sewed my new bluejeans
My father was a gamblin man
Down in new orleans
Now the only thing a gambler needs
Is a suitcase and trunk
And the only time hes satisfied
Is when hes on a drunk
Oh mother tell your children
Not to do what I have done
Spend your lives in sin and misery
In the house of the rising sun
Well, I got one foot on the platform
The other foot on the train
Im goin back to new orleans
To wear that ball and chain

If Not Now...

If not now
Then when
If not today
Then why make your promises
A love declared for days to come
Is as good as none

You can wait 'til morning comes
You can wait for the new day
You can wait and lose this heart
You can wait and soon be sorry

If not now
Then when
If not today
Then why make your promises
A love declared for days to come
Is as good as none

Now love's the only thing that's free

Three Little Birds

Dont worry about a thing
cause every little thing gonna be all right
Singin: dont worry about a thing
cause every little thing gonna be all right!
Rise up this mornin
Smiled with the risin sun
Three little birds
Pitch by my doorstep
Singin sweet songs
Of melodies pure and true
Sayin, this is my message to you-ou-ou:
Singin: dont worry bout a thing,
cause every little thing gonna be all right.
Singin: dont worry (dont worry) bout a thing,
cause every little thing gonna be all right!
Rise up this mornin,
Smiled with the risin sun,
Three little birds
Pitch by my doorstep
Singin sweet songs

Say Hallelujah

Say Hallelujah
Throw up your hands
The bucket is kicked
The body is gone
Close your eyes
And bow your head
To rest your soul
And to praise the dead
Say Hallelujah
Throw up your hands
The bucket is kicked
The body is gone
Dry your eyes
And stand upright
Put a smile on your face
He wouldnt want us to cry
The sun will rise
The stars will shine
Turning day to dusk
And night to dawn
