Good Times

Good times, good times,
I'm goin out tonight just to ease my mind.
I worked all day I'm gonna' play all night,
I ain't gonna' stop 'till it feels alright.
You gotta' take time for what you wanna' do,
And if you had the chance I know you would too, baby.

Are you gonna' meet me on the moon tonight?
Can't guarantee I won't touch you, girl, 'cause I just might.

Good times, good times,
I watched you wiggle, baby, from behind, hey.
Skin tight pants and I watched you dance,
I asked you, honey, and you took a chance.
I'm kinda' outspoken 'cause my mind is broken,
I love you, baby, I sure ain't jokin', now.

Are you gonna' meet me on the moon tonight?
Can't guarantee I won't touch you, girl, 'cause I just might.

Can't Be With You Tonight

I can't be with you tonight
It couldn't be right
And the further from sight the better

I can't be with you tonight
And there ant no use pretendin
Cause it couldn't be right
At least not from this end girl
And the further from sight the better

Girl there's somthin that won't let me be
And it's tryin to hide inside of me
There are some things that you'll never see
Never see baby ever
It's not that i'm so clever
It's just that it's better

I can't be with you tonight
And there ant no use pretendin
Cause it couldn't be right
At least not from this end girl
And the further from sight the better

Get this feeling cause i never knew
Girl what you had deep inside of you
Now it looks as though i was a fool
Cause it was me not you baby
You had to do what you had to do baby
Now it looks like we're through baby

I can't be with you tonight
Oooo oooo oooo oooo oooo oooo

Can't be with you tonight
I can't be with you

It couldn't be right
I can't be with you
The further from sight the better

I can't be with you tonight
And there ain't no use pretendin
Cause it couldn't be right
At least not from this end girl
And the further from sight the better

I can't be with you tonight
Oooo oooo
It couldn't be right
Oooo oooo
The further from sight the better

No Reason Why

You ain't gonna live as long as you figure
Cause somebodys got a gun and their fingers on the trigger
You gave e'm a bad line and you went down for the very last time
You wanted to live somebody wants you to die and there's no reason why

Life ain't as long as you want it
Cause sombodys got a bullet with your name written on it
You gave e'm a bad line and you went down for the very last time
You wanted to live somebody wants you to die and there's no reason why

I'm not afraid of what you might do to me
Cause if the back turns the tide will turn as they will see
But in the meantime they got their eye on you
And when the shots fired there's nothin you can do ooo

You wanted to live they want you to die
There's no reason why no reason why
You ain't gonna live no reason why
No reason why no reason why
No reason why no reason why

Stuck In The Middle

True love won't pass you bye
Must you eye every boy that passes
Why can't you be satisfied
You hurt my pride
Running between classes

Cause you're stuck in the middle
Yeah stuck in the middle
My baby's stuck in the middle again

I never thought i'd find a better love
She had plenty of all the love that he'd arrived for
But blessings come from up above
You wanna be loved but you're better off a wise boy

Cause she's stuck in the middle
Yeah stuck in the middle
My baby's stuck in the middle again

Boy she's stuck in the middle
Yeah stuck in the middle
My baby's stuck in the middle again

My baby's stuck in the middle

Ah stuck in the middle
Yeah stuck in the middle
My baby's stuck in the middle again

My baby's stuck in the middle

And if it's gonna be that you don't realize
Got you hypnotized must be mesmerized
He cut you down to size hell yeah yeah yeah

Well i don't understand there's no rhyme or reason

Wait For Me

Now that your love is left behind
For your neighbor
That's why i remind you
Of the words
That he spoke for everyone
And those who believe them
Are anointed by the son
Oh yeah
All you got to do is believe
And go on to heaven
And there you'll be received
By the arms
Of a love you've never known
And nobody forced you
Because you did it on your own

And wait for me
Cause i'll meet you there
When these rags are gone
And my body's dead

Oh wait for me
And i'll meet you there
When these rags are gone
And my body's dead

Wait for me
And i'll meet you there
When these rags are gone
And my body's dead
