1.1 - One Of These Days

One of these days, boy
Gonna see my baby
Gonna see my baby
Coming down the road
She'll have my pardon
Pardon in her apron, oh, Lord
Gonna see the governor
who said release my man

She's coming down the road, boy
She's coming down the road
Red dress on, yeah
She's got her red dress on
She's coming down the road, boy
She's coming down the road
Her bags down low
She's got her bags down low

One of these days, boy
Gonna see my woman
She'll have my children
Children on her knee
I'll run up to my woman
And hold her in my arms
Tears in her eyes
She says I'm glad you're free

Coming down the road
Coming down the road
Coming down the road
Coming down the road
Red dress on
Red dress on
Red dress on
Red dress on
Coming down the road
Coming down the road
Coming down the road
Coming down the road

1.2 - You Give Me Loving

You give me loving that I can't return
You give me money that you know I'll burn
You give me loving just for your own sake
You only give it so that you can take
You give me loving and you drive me mad
You give me money and it makes me sad
You give me loving and it's plain to see

I keep running, 'cause I know the score
You'll never find me coming back for more
I'll catch you later 'cause I'm gonna split
You give a lot, I only need a bit
You give me loving that I can't return
You give me money that you know I'll burn
You give me loving just for your own sake
You only give it so that you can take

You give me loving and it's plain to see
You wanna give it to me all for free
I can't take it 'cause you need it back
The art of giving is the one I lack
You give me loving that I can't return
You give me money that you know I'll burn
'Cause I meed freedom more than I need gold
And so I'll leave before I get too old

1.3 - Good Morning Little Schoolgirl

Good morning little schoolgirl
Can I go home, home with you?
Good morning little schoolgirl
Can I go home, home with you?
Tell your mama and your papa
Big be schoolboy, too

I won't bore you, yeah
Baby, I won't bore you all night long
Baby, I wanna ball you
Yes, I do
I wanna ball you all night long
Tell your mama and your papa
Doing nothing wrong, child
I'm doing nothing wrong, yeah

I won't bore you, yea
Baby, I wanna ball you all night long
I won't bore you, darling, yea
Yes, I do, child
I won't bore you all night long
Tell your mama and your papa
We're gonna do nothing wrong
Wrong , wrong, wrong
