letra de Brown Sugar
Gold coast slave ship bound for cotton fields

Sold in a market down in New Orleans

Scarred old slaver knows he's doing alright

Hear him whip the women just around midnight

Ah, brown sugar, how come you taste so good?

Ah, brown sugar, just like a young girl should

Drums beating, cold English blood runs hot

Lady of the house wondering where it's gonna stop

House boy knows that he's doing alright

You should have heard him just around midnight

Ah, brown sugar, how come you taste so good?

Ah, brown sugar, just like a young girl should

Ah, brown sugar, how come you taste so good?

Ah, brown sugar, just like a black girl should

I bet your mama was a tent show queen

And all her girlfriends were sweet sixteen

I'm no school boy but I know what I like

You should have heard me just around midnight

Ah, brown sugar, how come you taste so good?

Ah, brown sugar, just like a young girl should

I said yeah, yeah, yeah, whew

How come you, how come you taste so good?

I said yeah, yeah, yeah, whew

Just, just like a black girl should

letra de Dancing In The Street
Calling out around the world

Are you ready for a brand new beat

Summer's here and the time is right

For dancing in the street

They're dancing in Chicago

Down in New Orleans

Up in New York City

All we need is music, sweet music

There'll be music everywhere

There'll be swinging swaying records playing

Dancing in the street

Oh it doesn't matter what you wear

Just as long as you are there

So come on every guy grab a girl

Everywhere around the world

They'll be dancing

They're dancing in the street

It's just an invitation across the nation

A chance for folks to meet

There'll be laughing, singing and music swinging

Dancing in the street

Philadelphia, PA

Baltimore and D.C. now

Can't forget the Motor City

All we need is music, sweet music

There'll be music everywhere

There'll be swinging, swaying and records playing

Dancing in the street

Oh it doesn't matter what you wear

Just as long as you are there

So come on every guy grab a girl

Everywhere around the world

They'll be dancing

They're dancing in the street

Way down in L.A

Every day

Dancing in the street

letra de Midnight Special
Well, you wake up in the morning

You hear the work bell ring

And they march you to the table

You see the same old thing

Ain't no food upon the table

And no fork up in the pan

But you better not complain, boy

You get in trouble with the man

Let the midnight special shine a light on me

Let the midnight special shine a light on me

Let the midnight special shine a light on me

Let the midnight special shine a ever-lovin' light on me

Yonder come miss Rosie

How in the world did you know

By the way she wears her apron

And the clothes she wore

Umbrella on her shoulder

Piece of paper in her hand

She come to see the governor

She want to free her man

Let the midnight special shine a light on me

Let the midnight special shine a light on me

Let the midnight special shine a light on me

Let the midnight special shine a ever-lovin' light on me

If you're ever in Houston

Well you'd better do right

You'd better not gamble

And you better not fight at all

Or the sheriff will grab you

And the boys will bring you down

The next thing you know boy

Well, you're prison bound

Let the midnight special shine a light on me

Let the midnight special shine a light on me

Let the midnight special shine a light on me

Let the midnight special shine a ever-lovin' light on me

Let the midnight special shine a light on me

Let the midnight special shine a light on me

Let the midnight special shine a light on me

Let the midnight special shine a ever-lovin' light on me

letra de The Way You Do The Things You Do
You got a smile so bright

You know you could have been a candle

I'm holding you so tight

You know you could have been a handle

The way you swept me off my feet

You know you could've been a broom

And babe you smell so sweet

You know you could've been some perfume

Well you could of been anything that you wanted to

I can tell

The way you do the things you do

As pretty as you are

You know you could've been a flower

If good looks were minutes

You know you could have been an hour

The way you stole my heart

You know you could have been a crook

And baby your so smart

You know you could have been a school book

Well you could of been anything that you wanted to

I can tell

The way you do the things you do

Well you could of been

You make my life so rich

You know you could've been some money

And baby you're so sweet

You know you could have been some honey

As pretty as you are

You know you could've been a flower

If good looks were minutes

You know you could have been an hour

The way you stole my heart

You know you could have been a crook

And baby your so smart

You know you could have been a school book

Well you could of been

Well you could of been anything that you wanted to

I can tell

The way you do the things you do

As pretty as you are

You know you could've been a flower

If good looks were minutes

You know you could have been an hour

The way you stole my heart

You know you could have been a crook

And baby your so smart

You know you could have been a school book

Well you could of been

letra de Green Power
People talkin' about the power of love

They said it moves mountains, oh yes indeed

But what will love buy you?

From life's sweet fountain?

I wanna know, I wanna know

Give me the power to buy me happiness

When I don't have enough

To buy some easy living

When things get rough

Come on

Come on

And give me that

(Green power)

Hey, give it to me

Give it to me

Give it to me

Do it to me

(Green power)

Hey hey hey

Give it to me

Give it to me, y'all

Money can't buy you love

(Buy you love)

That's oh so true

Oh yes it is

So that when love has broke your heart

Money will comfort you

Oh yes it will, oh yes it will

Well, if money is number two

We have to try a little harder

So when love runs out

We can make it a little farther

Come on

Come on

And give me that

(Green power)

Hey!

Give me

Give me

Give me

Give it

(Green power)

Sock it to me

Sock it to me

Sock it to me

Sock it to me

Hey-hey!

Sock it to me

Sock it to me

Hey-hey!

Say you want me to be your man

I can dig it, Can't you see?

Oh yes oh yes

Say all the love in the whole wide world

You gonna give it all to me

Oh yes, baby

What else you got for me, honey?

Sock it to me

(Mind power)

I don't want none

(Bad power)

Go way, child, you know I just, I just, I just had some

So come on

(Come on)

Come on

(Come on)

And give me that ol'

(Green power)

Hey!

Give it to me

Give it to me

Do it to me

Sock it to me

(Green power)

Give it to me

Magdalena [?]

Got to have it

Make it green

(Green power)

Oh baby, give me the old presidents

Just to pay my little rent, now

(Green power)

Somebody know that I want it

Got to have it, don't have none

Need it, y'all

(Green power)

Everybody wants some, Everywhere

Everybody needs some

letra de Born On The Bayou
Now, when I was just a little boy,

Standin' to my Daddy's knee,

My poppa said, "Son, don't let the man get you

Do what he done to me."

'Cause he'll get you,

'Cause he'll get you now, now.

And I can remember the fourth of July,

Runnin' through the backwood, bare.

And I can still hear my old hound dog barkin',

Chasin' down a hoodoo there.

Chasin' down a hoodoo there.

[Chorus:]

Down on the Bayou;

Down on the Bayou;

Down on the Bayou.

Wish I was back on the Bayou.

Rollin' with some Cajun Queen.

Wishin' I were a fast freight train,

Just a chooglin' on down to New Orleans.

[Chorus]

Do it, do it, do it, do it. Oh, Lord.

Oh get back boy.

I can remember the fourth of July,

Runnin' through the backwood bare.

And I can still hear my old hound dog barkin',

Chasin' down a hoodoo there.

Chasin' down a hoodoo there.

[Chorus]

All right! Do, do, do, do.

Mmmmmmm, oh.
