Ain’t nobody’s baby like mine Ain’t nobody’s baby like mine I would count the ways, but there’s never enough time Ain’t nobody’s baby like mine Oh yeah, she’s my baby Oh yeah she drives me crazy Walking down the street, I keep myself two feet behind The way the swings her hips, it drives me out of my mind Ain’t nobody’s baby like mine Ain’t nobody’s baby like mine Always on my mind, she likes a good time Ain’t nobody’s baby like mine So sweet, she’s like a soul song So pure, she can’t do no wrong twenty four seven baby, three six five Count my lucky stars ever day your by my side Ain’t nobody’s baby like mine Ain’t nobody’s baby like mine Always on my mind, keeps me satisfied Ain’t nobody’s baby like mine These hard times they don’t bother me no more I’ve been alright since she said “I’ll be yours” Ain’t nobody’s baby like mine Ain’t nobody’s baby like mine Always on my mind, keeps me satisfied Ain’t nobody’s baby like mine

Take me down , take me down, to where the river flows Throw me in the deep end, yeah just let me go Because I’m sick of this, it don’t make sense Wanna go my own way, and fuck your consequence Because I’m happy now, and it’s all good Take me down, take me down, do it fast then do it slow Doesn’t really matter, one day you’re gonna go Gonna do my own thing, shut out all the noise Be good to my woman, stay true to my boys Yeah its simple now, and it’s all good But you can’t change me, I’ll be a better man Maybe I’ll walk another road Don’t try to save me, with your false promises I don’t believe what I’m being sold Spin me round, spin me round, dancing like a fool Convinced that I’m winning until they change the rules You could all in, or you could hedge your bet Make up a new move, go out of step But the banker always wins, and he ain’t no good Take me down, take me down, walk these lonely streets I don’t know what they told you but that ain’t gold beneath your feet (That ain’t gold……..that ain’t gold…..) The sands are shifting, they move with time If a man’s not careful, he could lose his mind (that ain’t gold) but it feels good

we’ve walked this road, over and over and over time, it cracks with pressure The teacher preaches, the preacher reaches Into our pockets and then promises releases Between the raindrops, and lonely faces We come to realise we’re prescribed places Looking for order, beneath the chaos I dream of running, the noose tightens in her nightmares it goes…on and on hear no…evil see no …evil speak..evil My Daddy’s trying, my neighbour’s drugging My mother’s crying, keeps on birthing Next generation, same old problems Into the future with a system that is broken The greatest weapon, of the oppressor Is the mindset of the oppressed Under achiever, is our assessment you play the fool again, we take what we expect it goes…on and on hear no…evil see no …evil speak..evil When I was thirteen, they said to grow up But when I left school, nobody showed up No graduation, no fancy picture Just take a seat between the wasters and the drifters Life brings its lessons, she’s skipping class now Her best friend questions, her shrinking mass, how, The baggy school clothes, hide neurosis Her arms collect scars as she squeezes through the process The teacher’s screaming, the class room freezes Straight from head’s office into police cells The greatest weapon of the oppressor is the mindset of the oppressed

Ramble On 03:35
Sun shine in the morning, shine on me, shine on me Birds singing a new song, sing one for me, sing one for me Sing it for me, so I can be free Rivers that keep on running, Flow to me yeah flow to me Mountains out in the distance, remember me, remember me Remember me, so I can be free And where the wind is blowing, And there ain’t no signs of slowing The tapestry keeps growing And I, will ramble on, to where I belong Whispers out on the wind, speak to me, yeah speak to me Waves over the ocean, carry me, please carry me Carry me, and I will be free And stars of Orion, please guide me, please guide me When the night comes calling, call on me, call on me Call on me, and I will be free And where the wind is blowing, And there ain’t no signs of slowing The tapestry keeps growing And I, will ramble on, to where I belong
