In the evening, When the day is done 
I'm looking for a woman, but the girl don't come 
So don't let her, Play you for a fool 
She don't show no pity baby, she don't make no rules 

Oh, oh, I need your love, I need your love 
Oh, I need your love, I just got to have 

So don't you let her,
Oh, get under your skin 
It's only bad luck and trouble,
From the day that you begin 
I hear you crying in the darkness,
Don't ask nobody's help 
Ain't no pockets full of mercy baby,
Cause you can only blame yourself 

Oh, oh, I need your love, I need your love 
Oh, I need your love, I just got to have 

Oh it's simple,
All the pain that you go through 
You can turn away from fortune, fortune,
Cause that's all that's left to you 
It's lonely at the bottom, Man, it's dizzy at the top 
But if you're standing in the middle,
Ain't no way you're gonna stop 

Oh, oh, I need your love, I need your love 
Oh, I need your love, I just got to have 

Oh whatever that your days may bring 
No use hiding in a corner,
Cause that won't change a thing 
If you're dancing in the doldrums,
One day soon, it's got to stop, it's got to stop 
When you're the master of the off-chance,
When you don't expect a lot 

Oh, oh, I need your love, I need your love 
Oh, I need your love, I just got to have 

Baby, when you walk that sweet walk 
Oh, you walk it good, yes you walk it good 
Baby, when you talk that sweet talk 
Oh, it sounds so good, oh so good 

With a little bit of concentration 
And a little bit of helpin' hands, yeah 
And a little bit of raving madness 
You know it makes me feel, baby 
Both my feet are back on the ground 

And when the rhythm takes me 
It feels so good, oh so good
Baby if it keeps a-shaking 
It will do you good, oh so much good 

With a little bit of stop-a-shakin' shakin' 
And a little bit of ?fly right down? 
And a little bit of sweet con-carne 
It makes me feel, makes me feel 
I got my feet on the ground 

Ooh now baby, when you move it makes me 
Really feel so good, oh so good 
And I'm so glad, so glad, so glad, so glad 
And I'm good, oh, so good 
With a little bit of concentration 
And a little bit of helping hand 
And a little bit of ?saving madness? 
You know it makes me feel, baby 
I'm back on the ground oh yes, sure does 
It makes me feel back on the ground. 

I'm feelin' good child! 
Down on the ground. 
Sha la la la... 

Well there's a light in your eye that keeps shining 
Like a star that can't wait for the night 
I hate to think I've been blinded baby 
Why can't I see you tonight? 

And the warmth of your smile starts a-burnin' 
And the thrill of your touch gives me fright 
And I'm shaking so much, really yearning 
Why don't you show up, make it all right? 
Yeah, it's all right. 

And if you promised you'd love so completely 
and you said you would always be true 
You swore that you would never leave me, baby: 
What ever happened to you? 

And you thought it was only in movies 
As you wish all your dreams would come true 
It ain't the first time believe me, baby 
I'm standin here feeling blue 
Yeah I'm blue 

Now I will stand in the rain on the corner 
I'll watch the people go shuffling downtown 
Another ten minutes no longer 
And then I'm turning around 

The clock on the wall's moving slower 
My heart it sinks to the ground 
And the storm that I thought would blow over 
Clouds the light of the love that I found 

Now my body is starting to quiver 
And the palms of my hands getting wet 
I've got no reason to doubt you baby, 
It's all a terrible mess 

I'll run in the rain till I'm breathless 
When I'm breathless I'll run till I drop, hey 
The thoughts of a fool's kind of careless 
I'm just a fool waiting on the wrong block, oh yeah 
Light of the love that I found... 

Well I just got into town today 
To find my girl who's gone away 
She took the Greyhound at the General Store 
I searched myself I searched the town 
When I finally did sit down 
I find myself no wiser than before 

She said we couldn't do no wrong 
No other love could be so strong 
She locked up my heart in her bottom drawer 
Now she took my heart she took my keys 
From in my old blue dungarees 
And I'll never go to Texas anymore 

Now my baby's gone I don't know what to do 
She took my love and walked right out the door 
And if I ever find that girl I know one thing for sure 
I'm gonna give her something like she never had before 

I took her love at seventeen 
A little late these days it seems 
But they said heaven is well worth waiting for 
I took her word I took it all 
Beneath the sign that said "U-haul" 
She left angels hangin round for more 

Now my baby's gone I don't know what to do 
She took my love and walked right out the door 
And if I ever find that girl I know one thing for sure 
I'm gonna give her something like she never had before 

I thought I had it all sewn up 
Our love, a plot, a pick-up truck 
But folks said she was after something more 
I never did quite understand 
All that talk about rockin' bands 
But they just rolled my doll right out the door 
Oh yeah, they just rolled my doll right out the door! 

Sisters of the way-side bide their time in quiet peace, 
Await their place within the ring of calm; 
Still stand to turn in seconds of release, 
Await the call they know may never come. 
In times of lightness, no intruder dared upon 
To jeopardize the course, upset the run; 
And all was joy and hands were raised toward the sun 
As love in the halls of plenty overrun. 

Still in their bliss unchallenged mighty feast, 
Unending dances shadowed on the day. 
Within their walls, their daunting formless keep, 
Preserved their joy and kept their doubts at bay. 
Faceless legions stood in readiness to weep, 
Just turn a coin, bring order to the fray; 
And everything is soon no sooner thought than deed, 
But no one seemed to question in anyway. 

How keen the storied hunter's eye prevails upon the land 
To seek the unsuspecting and the weak; 
And powerless the fabled sat, too smug to lift a hand 
Toward the foe that threatened from the deep. 
Who cares to dry the cheeks of those who saddened stand 
Adrift upon a sea of futile speech? 
And to fall to fate and make the 'status plan' 
Where was your word, where did you go? 
Where was your helping, where was your bow? Bow. 
Dull is the armour, cold is the day. 
Hard was the journey, dark was the way. Way. 
I heard the word; I couldn't stay. Oh. 
I couldn't stand it another day, another day, 
Another day, another day. 

Touched by the timely coming, 
Roused from the keeper's sleep, 
Release the grip, throw down the key. 

Held now within the knowing, 
Rest now within the peace. 
Take of the fruit, but guard the seed. 

They had to stay! 

Held now within the knowing, 
Rest now within the beat. 
Take of the fruit, but guard the seed... 

Should I fall out of love, my fire in the light 
To chase a feather in the wind 
Within the glow that weaves a cloak of delight 
There moves a thread that has no end. 

For many hours and days that pass ever soon 
the tides have caused the flame to dim 
At last the arm is straight, the hand to the loom 
Is this to end or just begin? 

All of my love, all of my love,
All of my love to you. (repeat) 

The cup is raised, the toast is made yet again 
One voice is clear above the din 
Proud Aryan one word, my will to sustain 
For me, the cloth once more to spin 

All of my love, all of my love,
All of my love to you. (repeat) 

Yours is the cloth, mine is the hand that sews time 
his is the force that lies within 
Ours is the fire, all the warmth we can find 
He is a feather in the wind 

All of my love, all of my love,
All of my love to you. (repeat) 

Oh she's my baby, Let me tell you why 
Hey, she drives me crazy,
She's the apple of my eye 
'Cause she is my girl,
And she can never do wrong 
If I dream too much at night,
Somebody please bring me down 

Hey, I love that little lady,
I got to be her fool 
Ain't no other like my baby,
I can break the golden rule 
'Cause I get down on my knees, Oh,
I pray that love won't die 
And if I always try to please,
I don't know the reason why, yeah 

If she would come back, Only stay with me 

Every little bit of my love, etc., I give to you girl 

I don't have to go by plane 
I ain't gotta go by car 
I don't care just where my darling is 
People I just don't care how far 
I'm gonna crawl 
I don't care if I got to go back home 
I don't care what I got to stand to her back 
I'm gonna crawl 
I'm gonna move the car, baby 
She give me good lovin 
Yes I love her, I guess I love her 
I'm gonna crawl.
