1. _ Clap Your Hands
We've been good friends so very long
Oh but now i'm feelin' something much more strong
You make me feel so good
When you move like you should
Ooh, what i'm thinking can't be wrong
I always knew that it was true
That there was rhythm deep inside of you
Now i can't wait no more
To get you on that floor
And that's not all that we can do
Chorus and background
Clap your hands (you got to clap your hands now) background repeats 4x
Clap your hands (you got to clap your hands)
Ooh, clap your hands, baby
Clap your hands
I see it in the way you dance
That you are looking, looking for romance
I'll give you such a thrill, you'll never get your fill
If you just give me half a chance
Repeat chorus and background
You got to clap your hands now,
You got to clap your hands
(repeat)
Oooh, ooh, oh yeah
You got to clap your hands now,
You got to clap your hands
Repeat chorus and background to fade

3. _ Candy
Candy
I call my sugar candy
Because i'm sweet on candy
And candy's sweet on me
She understands me
My understanding candy
And candy's always handy
When i need sympathy
You wish that there were four of her
So i could love much more of her
She has taken your complete heart
Got a sweet tooth for my sweetheart

It's gonna be just dandy
The day i take my candy
And make her mine, all mine

Oh how i could love much more of him

The day i take my candy
Gee how the sun will shine
On the day my candy
On the day my candy
On the day my candy's mine

5. _ Occapella
There's music in the streets
And music in the air
A little ol' soul beat
Dancin everywhere
I would tell the whole world
I'd tell 'em if i could
To add a little song into each life
And make it finger poppin' good
Whoa, whoa
Oh pardon me but you could use it
We're gonna make a little music
You got soul now don't you lose it
We're gonna make a little music
Everything's gonna be mellow
We would just sing it occapella
Everything's gonna be mellow
Listen while we sing it occapella
Whoa, whoa
(vocal breakdown)
Repeat from top, fade out at the end

6. _ Java Jive
I love coffee, i love tea
I love the java jive and it loves me
Coffee and tea and the java and me
A cup, a cup, a cup, a cup, a cup (boy!)
I love java, sweet and hot
Whoops mr. moto, i'm a coffee pot
Shoot the pot and i'll pour me a shot
A cup, a cup, a cup, a cup, a cup
Oh slip me a slug from the wonderful mug
And i'll cut a rug just snug in a jug
A sliced up onion and a raw one
Draw one -
Waiter, waiter, percolator
I love coffee, i love tea
I love the java jive and it loves me
Coffee and tea and the java and me
A cup, a cup, a cup, a cup, a cup
Boston bean (soy beans)
Green bean (cabbage and greens)
I'm not keen about a bean
Unless it is a chili chili bean (boy!)
I love java sweet and hot
Whoops mr. moto i'm a coffee pot (yeah)
Shoot me the pot and i'll pour me a shot
A cup, a cup, a cup (yeah)
Slip me a slug of the wonderful mug
'an i'll cut a rug just as snug in a jug
Drop a nickel in the pot joe
Takin' it slow
Waiter, waiter, percolator
I love coffee, i love tea
I love the java jive and it loves me
Coffee and tea and the java and me
A cup, a cup, a cup, a cup, boy!

7. _ Blue Champagne
3 am
Nowhere else to go
It's 3 am and i miss you so
Couples are departing soon they'll all be gone
Now another day is starting
Still i linger on with
Blue champagne
Purple shadows and blue champagne
With the echoes that still remain
I keep a blue rendezvous
Bubbles rise
Like a fountain before my eyes
And they suddenly crystallize
To form a vision of you
All the plans we started, all the songs we sang
Each little dream we knew
Seems to overtake me
Like a boomerang
Blue is the sparkle, gone is the tang
It's your refrain,
Keeps returning, as i remain
With all the memories and blue champagne
To toast the dream that was you
I'm bluer than blue champagne

8. _ Sweet Talkin' Guy
Sweet talking guy
Talking sweet kinda lies
Don't you believe in him, if you do he'll make you cry
He'll send you flowers
And paint the town with another girl
He's a sweet talking guy (sweet talking guy)
But he hasn't got a dime (sweet talking guy)
Sweeter than sugar (oooh, ooh)
Kisses like wine (oh he's so fine)
Don't let him under your skin, 'cause you'll never win
Don't give him love today, tomorrow he's on his way
He's a sweet talking guy (sweet talking guy)
But he hasn't got a dime
Why do i love him like i do?
Sweet sweet, sweet talking guy
He's a sweet talking (sweet talking)
Sweet talking (sweet talking)
Guy
Stay away from him (sweet sweet, sweet talking guy)
'cause you know you'll never win
(what's the use of trying)
Don't give him love today, tomorrow he's on his way,
He's a sweet talking (sweet talking)
Sweet talking (sweet talking)
Guy

9. _ Tuxedo Junction
Boop bop, boop bop
Boop bop, boop bop
Boop bop, boop bop
Boop bop, boop bop
Way down south, in birmingham
I mean south, in alabam'
There's a place
Where people go to dance the night away
It's a junction
Where the town folk meet
At each function in their best they'll greet you
Sax solo
Scat solo
Way down south, in birmingham
I mean south, in alabam'
That old place
Boop bop, boop bop
Boop bop, boop bop
Boop bop, boop bop
Boop bop, boop bop
Way down south, in birmingham
I mean south, in alabam'
'ans old place
Where people go to dance the night away
They all drive or walk for miles
To get blues - that southern style,
So blue - it'll make you want to dance the night away
Tuxedo junction - where i want to be

10. _ Heart's Desire
You're my heart's desire, you're my hearts desire--
You are
My heart's desire (hearts desire)
You set my soul on fire (soul on fire)
When your lips are close to mine
You'll find --
That you're my hearts desire (you're my hearts desire, you're my hearts desire)
Oh--
No other love could be (love could be)
As sweet as yours to me (yours to me)
Oh my darling, oh can't you plainly see
That you're my hearts desire
No other dream could replace
That lonely and cold empty space
And fill my heart with a love
For it's you i'm dreaming of...
There's one thing i know (baby i know)
I know that wherever, wherever, wherever you may go (you may go)
Oh honey i'll forever keep on loving and wanting you so
'cause you're my hearts desire
You are my heart's desire

11. _ That Cat Is High
Spoken: folks i'm mellow as a honeydew! (oh yeah, yeah)
That cat is high
Look at that look in his eye
On man he's high
The cats higher than a kite
When you see him stumblin'
Up and down the street
You know that cat's been drinkin'
Got no shoes upon his feet
Man he's high
I said that cat is high
Yes he's high
Man he's higher than a kite
That cat is high
Look at that look in his eye
You know i wouldn't lie
That cat is higher than a kite
Boys he's high
Oh look at them two black eyes
Oh me oh my
That cat is higher than the sky
When you see him tippin'
Round and round the block
Oh you know that cat he's very beat
Hip clean down to his socks
That cat is high
Look at that look in his eye
Oh me oh my
That cat is higher than the sky
Yeah!
Instrumental

The cat's higher than a kite
He's high (that cat is high)
So high (that cat is high)
My my (oh man he's high)

Well i know that cat is high!
Hee hee -- yeah!

12. _ You Can Depend On Me
Though you say we're through i'll always love you
You know you can depend on me
If you need a friend, i'm yours until the end
You know you can count on me
I wish you success and loads of happiness
But i must confess
I'll be lonely, i'll be lonely, i'll be lonely
If someone you've met has made you forget
You know you can count on me
(sax solo)
Tim's solo:
Hey dig it, baby you got all me
Oh anytime you're feelin low n' love's got you moanin' low
You're sittin' with your bottle lookin' out the window
Pretty baby listen to me
I wanna tell you how i feel about you baby
How you got a way of sendin' me a reelin' from the top a' to the bottom
If i gotta naggy hokey way of feelin' poke me, poke me once again
We could do right, cookin' up a little rhythm
Move it jus' right and i'll show ya what you missed
Give it up, give it up, give up your love to me
An' i'll motivate, n' motivate n' motivate, n' motivate an' motivate
Along an' drive your blues away ----
Janis' solo:
Oh pretty baby i can dig what you been sayin'
What you been puttin' down makes my heart go aroun'
It's sweet music to my ear
But my dear i feel my heart's been broken all the time,
I just can't stop from thinkin |
