I think Janis was a bit disingenuous

"When you only gotta do one thing well,
You only gotta do one thing well to make it in this world, babe.
You got a woman waiting for you there,
All you ever gotta do is be a good man one time to one woman
And that'll be the end of the road, babe, "




I've been a good man a few times, and I'm still
not at the end of the road.

1. But did you cry, cry baby?
I know you got more tears to shed,
So come on, come on, come on, come on, come on,
And cry, cry baby, cry baby, cry baby.

2. And if you ever feel a little lonely, dear,

I want you to come on, come on to your mama now,
And if you ever want a little love of a woman
Come on and baby baby baby babe babe baby now
Cry baby yeah.

3. And always remember
In this world, if you read the papers, Lord,
You know everybody's fighting oh with each other.
You got no one you can count on, babe,
Not even your own brother.
So if someone comes along,
Gonna give you some love and affection
I say get it while you can, yeah!
Honey, get it while you can,
Hey, hey, get it while you can,
Don't you turn your back on love, no, no!

5. Don't you know when you're loving anybody, baby,

You're taking a gamble on a little sorrow,
But then who cares, baby,
'Cause we may not be here tomorrow, no.
And if anybody should come along,
He gonna give you any love and affection,
I'd say get it while you can, yeah!
Hey, hey, get it while you can,
Hey, hey, get it while you can.
Don't you turn your back on love,
No no no, no no no no no.

7. I don't understand why half the world is still crying, man,
when the other half of the world is still crying too, man, they can't get it together. I mean, if you got a cat for one day, man — I mean, if you, say, say, if you want a cat for 365 days, right — You ain't got him for 365 days, you got him for one day, man. Well I tell you that one day, man, better be your life, man. Because, you know, you can say, oh man, you can cry about the other 364, man, but you're gonna lose that one day, man, and that's all you've got. You gotta call that love, man. That's what it is, man. If you got it today you don't want it tomorrow, man, 'cause you don't need it, 'cause as a matter of fact, as we discovered in the train, tomorrow never happens, man. It's all the same fucking day, man.

8. Well spoken. change the channel:
Well, I'm walkin' down the highway
With my suitcase in my hand
Yes, I'm walkin' down the highway
With my suitcase in my hand
Lord, I really miss my baby
She's in some far-of land.

Well, your streets are gettin' empty
Lord your highway's gettin' filled
And your streets are gettin' empty
And your highway's gettin' filled
Well, the way I love that woman
I swear it's bound to get me killed.

9. Oh you five and ten cent women
Edited on Mon Jan-16-06 09:17 PM by ET Awful
With nothin' in your heads
I got a real gal I'm lovin'
And Lord I'll love her till I'm dead
Go away from my door and my window too
Right now

Unfortunately, I can't play any more :( My cat just told me I have to go finish folding laundry and then pass out because I'm freakin' exhausted :P

4. Magnificent album cover!
I've always been a big fan of R. Crumb's -- ever since the first ZAP Comix in 1967.
