Intro / I Want You Back lyrics - Jackson 5
(from "Goin' Back To Indiana" soundtrack)
This is your roving reporter Scoop Newsworthy standing in front of the actual rehearsal hall where the Jackson 5 are preparing for their Indiana concert
We wish we could take you inside but nobody's allowed in while they're rehearsing, you see
So, wait- hi
How're you' doing?
Scoop Newsworthy
Yeah
Yeah.
What's—uh. What's goin' on?
Uh, Jackson 5's rehearsing in there, but you can't go in
J-J5?
J5, J5. But you can't go in. You're gonna be thrown right out
Even if we wanted to go in there, we couldn't because the security is so tight, that any unauthorised individual going through that door will be forcibly ejected. You see
Folks, I'm sorry, but you can't go in there, kiddies, 'cause the sign says "No admittance"
This is Scoop Newsworthy - I'll get 'em
Uh-huh huh uh uh
Let me tell ya now
Uh-huh
When I had you to myself, I didn't want you around
Those pretty faces always made you stand out in a crowd
But someone picked you from the bunch, one glance was all it took
Now it's much too late for me to take a second look
Oh, baby, give me one more chance (To show you that I love you)
Won't you please let me (Back in your heart)
Oh, darlin', I was blind to let you go (Let you go, baby)
But now since I see you in his arms (I want you back)
Yes, I do now (I want you back)
Ooh, ooh, baby (I want you back)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah (I want you back)
Na, na, na, na
Tryin' to live without your love is just one long sleepless night
Let me show you, girl, that I know wrong from right
Every street you walk on I leave tear stains on the ground, yeah
Following the girl I didn't even want around
Let me tell you now
Oh, darlin', all I need is one more chance (To show you that I love you)
Won't you please let me (Back in your heart)
Oh, darlin', I was blind to let you go (Let you go, baby)
But now since I see you in his arms, uh-huh
A buh buh buh buh
A buh buh buh buh, all I want
A buh buh buh buh, all I need
A buh buh buh buh, all I want
A buh buh buh buh, all I need
Oh, just one more chance
To show you that I love you
Baby! Baby!
Baby! Baby!
Baby! Baby!
I want you back
Forget what happened then
I want you back
And let me live again
Oh darlin', I was blind to let you go
But now since I see you in his arms
I want you back
Spare me of this 'cause
And give back what I lost
Oh baby I need one more chance, ha
I'll show ya that I love you
(Baby!) Oh! (Yeah baby!) Oh! (Yeah baby!) Oh!
I want you back!
Ha, I want you back!
I want you back!
Maybe Tomorrow (Live) lyrics - Jackson 5
(from "Goin' Back To Indiana" soundtrack)
As you can see, the door here says, uh
"Sir, you can't go in, there's nobody admitted in there. You can't-"
These people are breaking the rules here
And I myself am personally going to eject the next unauthorised person coming and trying to get through this door
Now, that's all there is to it
Are you goin' in for the Jackson 5 rehearsal? Right in there, sir, help yourself. Have a good time!
I am, uh, Scoop Newsworthy, I'd like to talk to somebody here
That's all, America - but Scoop will scoop
I don't know how many stars there are
Up in the heavenly sky
I only know my heaven is here on earth
Each time you look into my eyes
The way you do baby
Thank you, thank you baby
(Aah, ah, ah)
My beautiful bird, you have flown away
I held you too tight, I can see
Baby, you're all I need to get by
No else can make me cry
The way you do, baby
'Cause you are the book that I read each day
You are the song that I sing (Gonna sing it to you)
You are the four seasons of my life
But maybe tomorrow you'll change your mind, girl
Maybe tomorrow you'll come back to my arms, girl
Maybe she'll come
Oh, you are the book that I read each day (Sing it, sing it, sing it, yeah)
You are the song that I sing (Sing it, sing it, sing it, yeah)
You are the four seasons of my life
But maybe tomorrow you'll change your mind girl
Maybe tomorrow you'll come back to my arms girl
You are the book that I read each day, yeah
You are the song that I sing, oh baby (Gonna sing it to you)
You are the four seasons of my life
But maybe tomorrow, you'll change your mind, girl
Maybe tomorrow, you'll come back to my arms girl
(Oh) oh (Baby) baby I need you (Listen to me girl, yeah yeah yeah)
You are the song that I sing, I'm gonna sing it (Gonna sing it to you)
You are the four seasons of my life
But maybe tomorrow you'll change your mind girl
Maybe tomorrow you'll come back to my arms girl
Sing it!
The Day Basketball Was Saved lyrics - Jackson 5
(from "Goin' Back To Indiana" soundtrack)
Rosey, how are you?
Jackie. Hey, man. That's really out of sight
Well, thanks, Rosey. Wow, you sure are big
Well, you know, being big get me into a lot of doors
Man, you're big enough to be an athlete. So, you ever play any sports?
Just a little figure skating
Why don't you come up to the house and play some basketball with us some time
Oh, I'll see if I can round up a few figure skaters
You better bring your best man 'cause me and my brothers are gonna put you away
Beat us? You little guys?
Right
In your wildest dream, you ain't never seen a team like I got...like I got...like I got
Peanuts! Popcorn! Peanuts! Popcorn!
The sporting world's had many teams
The fans have called first rate
They had the Yankees in the '40s
All agreed were really great
Packers and Celtics piled up records hard to beat
But good as they all seem to be
They tasted of defeat
No team has ever won 'em all and always stayed on top
Except that group of superstars no team could ever stop
A bunch of splendid athletes who all stood strong and tall
They called themselves the Dream Team
And their game was basketball
The center, a massive collection of bones
Was known by the nickname of Skyscraper Jones
The forwards were both brilliant ball handlers, too
Named Kangaroo Carson and Dead-Eye McGoo
The guards were two giants who played with great cool
Called Bulldozer Benson and Hookshot O'Toole
Together they moved like a well-oiled machine
And ran up such scores it was almost obscene
The team is unbeatable, everyone said
And if no one can beat them, then basketball's dead
Basketball's dead, yes, basketball's dead
No team will beat them, so no team can meet them
The...it's...dead
But wait, folks! (Huh, it's not?)
From out of Indiana like bees from a hive
Came a little known team called the Jackson 5
They came with a mission impossibly tough
To whip the Dream Team 'til they holler "Enough"
We'll razzle your frazzle, we'll muzzle you guys
We'll dazzle each one of you right down to size
We'll shiver your timbers 'til all of you fall
The Jacksons will beat you and save basketball
A laugh roars up on the Dream Team's side
And they laughed so hard that they nearly cried
Go home, little boys, get off the court
It's a big man's game, you're much too short
Too short, my foot, that's just your way
Of saying you're afraid to play
Afraid to play? Hear that squirt?
Go home before you all get hurt
We'd like to get just one thing straight
We heard you guys was really great
But so far all we've heard is talk
Are you gonna play or are you gonna walk?"
With that the Dream Team got real mad
And they blew what little cool they had
This time you guys, you've gone too far
We'll show you all how good we are
We'll play you now but we're so sore
We may not even let you score
Oh yeah? Oh yeah? We've heard it all
Let's cut the talk and et's play ball
So the teams lined up and the ball was tossed
And the game got underway
And the Dream Team knew from the very first tap
That the Jacksons knew how to play
They dribbled, they passed, they faked, they shot
They hustled, they drove right on through
And every time that the Dream Team scored
Well, the Jackson 5 scored, too
When the buzzer went off at the end of the half
The Dream Team wanted to hide
They couldn't believe it was happening
But the score was really tied
We've gotta stop those guys
We've gotta stop 'em quick
We've gotta realize
They're looking mighty slick
We've gotta start our drive
Or think of some good trick
To stop the Jackson 5, they're making us look sick!
(Sick! Sick! Sick! Sick!)
Hey, I've got a way
Let's fill them up with peanuts and popcorn
And then see how they play
Hey, Mr Vendor, listen to me
Those Jacksons could use some energy
So pass out your tray and let them grab
We're such good sports we'll pick up the tab
We've got a great attack
We've got them on the run
If we can hold them back
Then we'll be number one
We have the final lap
The jump will be reversed
Just play the second half
The way we played the first. Yeah!
Jackie, come and check the score
I'll be right back, guys; don't leave the floor
Peanuts! Popcorn! Have a ball!
Free of charge, kids. Take it all
Free of charge? Is that for real?
Free of charge! That's some good deal!
Maybe we shouldn't! Maybe we should!
It may be bad! And it may be good!
What if Jackie finds out? Who's going to tell?
Then, I guess we might as well!
So the Jacksons ate 'til all the food was gone
While the cheerleaders cheered the two teams on
Re-bop, re-bop, hootie-rootie zackie
Come on, Dream Team, let's stop Jackie
Michael, Marlon, Tito, and Jermaine
We've got the brawn, we've got the brains
Dream Team! Dream Team!
Fly high, fly high, fly high
One, two, three, ABC, Do-Re-Mi, man alive!
Ho ho ho! Ho ho ho! Go go go! Jackson 5!
The whistle blew for the second half
The excitement filled the place
You could tell both teams were all charged up
As they stood there face to face
They dribbled, they passed, they faked, they shot
They moved with dazzling speed
But the two teams seemed so evenly matched
Neither one could hold the lead
With 15 seconds left in the game
The Dream team led by one
They knew if they could freeze the ball
The Jacksons would be done
Just then the four young Jackson boys
Began to moan and groan
They dropped to the ground with bellyaches
Leaving Jackie standing alone
Too much popcorn! Too many peanuts!
We had too much junk!"
We're sorry, Jackie, we let you down!
It looks like the Jacksons are sunk!
The ref called time to remove the boys
"The game's over!" he said. "You're through!"
But Jackie said, "Ref, I'll play myself
If that's what I have to do."
So the ref gave Jackie the ball and said:
"There's time for one more play."
And Jackie said, "Well, that's all I need
I know I'll find a way."
Jackie took the ball and started out
Way at the end of the court
But he still had to get past five of the best
Who ever played the sport
As the clock kept ticking the seconds away
No mistake could he afford
But he went all the way with a brilliant display
And as the buzzer went off, he scored!
All the fans in the stands went wild
When Jackie won the game
And the Dream Team said he played so well
He belonged in the Hall of Fame
So the Jackson 5 ended up on top
And we thank them one and all
For not only did they beat the best
They also saved the game of basketball
Stand! (Live) lyrics - Jackson 5
(from "Goin' Back To Indiana" soundtrack)
Oom bah, bah bah
Oom bah, bah bah (Bah)
Stand, stand, stand
Stand! In the end you'll still be you
One that's done all the things you set out to do
Stand! There's a cross for you to bear
Things to go through if you're going anywhere
Stand! For the things you know are right
It's the truth that the truth makes them uptight
Stand! All the things you want are real
It's just you to complete and there is no deal
Yeah yeah yeah
Oom bah, bah bah
Oom bah, bah bah (Bah)
Stand, stand
Huh! Ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya (Come on!)
Huh! Ha! Ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya

Feelin' Alright (Live) lyrics - Jackson 5
(from "Goin' Back To Indiana" soundtrack)
How ya feelin' out there?
We'd like to do a song that's called 'Feelin' Alright'
So how ya feelin'?
How ya feelin'?
Alright
Seems I've got to have a change of scene
'Cause every night I have the strangest dreams
Imprisoned by the way it could have been
Left here all alone or so it seems
Oh, I've got to leave before I start to scream
But someone locked the door and she took the keya
Feeling alright (Come on, clap your hands, come on, everybody)
Not feeling too good myself (Ha!)
Feeling alright (Yeah)
Not feeling too good myself
Twee-tweedly-dee-dee, tweedly-dee-dee
Dee-tweedly-dee-dee, tweedly-dee-dee
Twee-tweedly-dee-dee, tweedly-dee-dee
Twee-tweedly-dee-dee (Oh yeah)
Feeling alright, alright, alright (You've got to go)
Not feeling too good myself (Ooh, ooh, oh yeah)
Feeling alright, alright, alright
Not feeling too good myself (Ha)
Feeling alright, alright, alright
Not feeling too good myself
Feeling alright, alright, alright (Got to go)
Not feeling too good myself
Twee-tweedly-dee-dee, tweedly-dee-dee
Twee-tweedly-dee-dee, tweedly-dee-dee
Twee-tweedly-dee-dee, tweedly-dee-dee
Twee-tweedly-dee-dee (Oh yeah)

Do you feel it? (Yeah!)
Do you feel it, oh! (Yeah!)
Medley: Walk On / The Love You Save lyrics - Jackson 5
(from "Goin' Back To Indiana" soundtrack)
[Walk On]
Walk on!
Walk on!
Walk on!
Walk on!
[The Love You Save]
Stop! Na na na! You'd better save it
Stop, stop, stop, you'd better save it, oh!
(Doo-doo, doo-doo-do-doo do-do do-do)
Oh
(Doo-doo doo-doo do-doo do-do)
Oh yeah
(Doo-doo doo-doo do-doo do-do doo-do-do-do)
When we played tag in grade school (Woo)
You wanted to be it
But chasing boys was just a fad
You crossed your heart you'd quit
When we grew up you traded (Woo)
Your promise for my ring
Now just like back in grade school
You're doing that same old thing
Stop! The love you save may be your own
Darling, take it slow
Or someday you'll be all alone
You'd better stop! The love you save may be your own
Headed for a danger zone
I'm the one who loves you
I'm the one you need
Those other guys will put you down
As soon as they succeed
They'll ruin your reputation
They'll label you a flirt
The way they talk about you
They'll turn your name to dirt
Isaac said he kissed you
Beneath the apple tree
When Benji held your hand he felt
Electricity
When Alexander called you
He said he rang your chimes
Christopher discovered
You're way ahead of your time
Stop! The love you save may be your own
Darling, take it slow
Or someday you'll be all alone
You'd better, uh-huh (Stop! The love you save may be your own)
Darling, look both ways before you cross me
You're headed for a danger zone
Slow down
Everybody!
Slow down
Slow down
Slow down
S is for "Save it"
T is for "Take it slow"
O is for "Oh, no!"
P is for "Please, please, don't go!"
The love you save may be your own
Someday you may be all alone
Stop it (Oh oh)
Baby! Ooh
You'd better stop! The love you save may be your own
Please, please
Or some day, some day baby, you'll be all alone
I'm the one who loves you
I'm the one you need
Those other guys will put you down as soon as they succeed
Oh
Stop! The love you save may be your own!
Don't you know? Don't you know?
Some day baby you'll be all alone
Stop!

(from "Goin' Back To Indiana" soundtrack)
Michael talking to audience
I'd like to talk to y'all tonight
About the blues
The blues?
Yeah the blues
Don't nobody have the blues like I have
I may be young but I know what it's all about
And this is how it went down
I met a girl at school one day
During in the sandbox
Sandbox?!
We toasted our love during milk break
Aw, man
I gave her my cookies!
Come on, Mike!
We fell out during singing plan
So one day, I stepped up to her and I said
When I had you (had you)
I treated you bad and wrong my dear
And girl since, since you went away

Come on and take it, because
All, all I can do, all I can do since you've been gone is cry

Maybe Tomorrow lyrics - Jackson 5
I don't know how many stars there are
Up in the heavenly sky
I only know my Heaven is here on Earth
Each time you look into my eyes
The way you do, baby
Thank you, thank you, baby
My beautiful bird, you have flown away
I held you too tight, I can see
You're all I need to get by
No else can make me cry
The way you do, baby
You are the book that I read each day
You are the song that I sing (Gonna sing it to you)
You are the four seasons of my life
But maybe tomorrow, you'll change your mind, girl
Maybe tomorrow, you'll come back to my arms, girl
Maybe she'll come
Baby, you're all I need to get by
No one else can make me cry
The way you do, baby, 'cause
You are the book that I read each day
You are the song that I sing (Gonna sing it to you)
You are the four seasons of my life
But maybe tomorrow, you'll change your mind, girl
Maybe tomorrow, you'll come back to my arms, girl
Oh, you are the book that I read each day (Sing it, sing it, sing it, yeah)
You are the song that I sing (Sing it, sing it, sing it, yeah)
You are the four seasons of my life
But maybe tomorrow, you'll change your mind, girl
Maybe tomorrow, you'll come back to my arms, girl

You are the song that I sing
You are the four seasons of my life
But maybe tomorrow, you'll change your mind, girl
Maybe tomorrow, you'll come back to my arms, girl
She's Good lyrics - Jackson 5
Man, oh, man, how glad I am
To have that pot of gold at the rainbow's end
Talking about that girl
She's good, she's good, she's good to me, yeah
Boy, oh boy, loads of joy
Every time she comes to mind, my friend
Talking about that girl
She's good, she's good, she's good to me, yeah
(She's good, she's good)
Don't you know I'm in heaven now?
And my little dream, is this really real?
I'm scared to pinch myself to find out
My, oh my, it's heard to realize
That something so groovy could be mine
Talking about that girl
She's good, she's good she's good to me, yeah
(She's good, she's good)
Don't you know that the world is mine?
And my little dream, is this really real?
I'm scared to pinch myself to find out
Man, oh man (she's good, she's good)
Boy, oh boy (she's good, she's good)
Don't you know that she's good to me
She's good, she's good, she's so good to me
(She's good, she's good)
And I love her, ooh
(She's good, she's good)
She's so good
Never Can Say Goodbye lyrics - Jackson 5
Never can say goodbye (Never can say goodbye, girl)
No, no, no, no, I
Never can say goodbye (Never can say goodbye, girl)
Even though the pain and heartache
Seems to follow me wherever I go
Though I try and try to hide my feelings
They always seem to show
Then you try to say you're leaving me
And I always have to say no
Tell me why (Tell me why)
Is it so (Is it so)
That I never can say goodbye (Never can say goodbye, girl)
No, no, no, no, I
Never can say goodbye (Never can say goodbye, girl)
Every time I think I've had enough
I start heading for the door
There's a very strange vibration
Piercing me right to the core
It says, "Turn around, you fool
You know you love her more and more."
Tell me why (Tell me why)
Is it so (Is it so)
Don't wanna let you go
I never can say goodbye, girl (Never can say goodbye, girl)
Ooh, ooh, baby (Don't wanna let you go, girl)
I never can say goodbye
No-no-no, no-no-no (No-no-no)
Ooh, oh
I never can say goodbye, girl (Never can say goodbye, girl)
Ooh-ooh (Don't wanna let you go, girl)
I never can say goodbye
No-no-no, no-no-no (No-no-no)
Ooh
Never can say goodbye (Never can say goodbye, girl)
No, no, no, no, I
Never can say goodbye (Never can say goodbye, girl)
I keep thinking that our problems
Soon are all gonna work out
But there's that same unhappy feeling
And there's that anguish, there's that doubt
It's the same old dizzy hang up
Can't do with you or without
Tell me why (Tell me why)
Is it so (Is it so)
Don't wanna let you go
I never can say goodbye, girl (Never can say goodbye, girl)
Ooh-ooh, baby (Baby)
I never can say goodbye
No-no-no, no-no-no (No-no-no)
Ooh, oh
I never can say goodbye, girl (Never can say goodbye, girl)
Ooh, oh (Hey, baby)
I never can say goodbye
No-no-no, no-no-no (No-no-no)
Ooh, ow, girl
I never can say goodbye, girl (Never can say goodbye, girl)
Ooh-ooh, baby (Hey, baby)
I never can say goodbye
No-no-no, no-no-no (No-no-no)
Ooh-ooh
I never can say goodbye, girl (Never can say goodbye, girl)
Ooh, now, ha (Hey, baby)
The Wall lyrics - Jackson 5
You hold me close to you, my baby
But somehow it doesn't feel the same
You built the wall so high between us
And you tell me that you haven't changed, oh
Tear down the wall that I can feel between us
The hidden wall that hides the real love
Tear it on down, tear the wall down
Tell me my love has got the strength to take it
Tell me what's wrong, we'll make it
Tear it on down, yeah, tear the wall down
I thought I really knew you, baby
Almost the way I know myself
But now you're acting like a stranger
And you've changed, girl, to somebody else, oh baby
Tear down the wall that I can feel between us
The hidden wall that hides the real love
Tear it on down, tear the wall down
Oh, tell me my love has got the strength to take it
Tell me what's wrong, we'll make it
Tear it on down, yeah, tear the wall down, ooh
Tear down the wall that I can feel between us
The hidden wall that hides the real love
Tear it on down, yeah, tear the wall down, oh...
Petals lyrics - Jackson 5
When my honey says she loves me so
Believe me, ya'll, it's far from status quo
A grain of salt I take with her heart
'Cause after her next breath, that girl may love me not
Oh
She tells my I'm so sweet
Sugar can't compete
Then puts me on the shelf
Crying by myself
Throwing petals, petals, tossing petals on the ground
Yesterday she picked me up just to throw me down
Those petals, petals, tell me what will it be today?
Will she walk into my arms or will she walk away?
She'll wake up some day and see
You're the only one she needs
Don't give up, just stick around
You'll be up instead of down
She keeps telling me she wants me near
(She keeps telling me she wants me near)
But half the time it's far from crystal clear
"Fickle-Heart" must be her middle name
("Fickle-Heart" must be her middle name)
'Cause loving her is just a guessing game
Oh
She calls up to say
Be there right away
Then leaves me sitting home
All alone and
Throwing all those petals, petals, tossing petals on the ground
Yesterday she picked me up just to throw me down
Those petals, petals, tell me what will it be today?
Will she walk into my arms or will she walk away?
She loves me (loves me, loves me)
And I feel like a king!
She loves me not (loves me not, she loves me not)
Huh! I've lost everything! Oh!
Petals, petals, tossing petals on the ground
Yesterday she picked me up just to throw me down
Yesterday I couldn't lose (yesterday I couldn't lose)
But today I sing the blues
Oh! Petals, petals, petals, petals
Ooh, ooh! Petals, petals, petals, petals
Petals, petals, petals, petals
Petals, petals, petals, petals
Petals, petals, tossing petals on the ground
Yesterday she picked me up just to throw me down
Tell me, tell me, tell me, what will it be today?
16 Candles lyrics - Jackson 5
Happy birthday
Happy birthday
I love you so
Sixteen candles
Make a lovely sight
But not as bright
As your hazel eyes
Blow out the candles baby
Make a wish come true
Blow out three wishes
That you love me too
You're only sixteen (oh girl)
But you're my teenage queen (sixteen)
But you're the prettiest and the loveliest girl
I've ever seen (I've ever seen)
Sixteen candles
In my heart will glow
Forever and ever
Oh, I love you so (I love you so)
You're only sixteen (oh girl)
But you're my teenage queen (sixteen)
But you're the prettiest and the loveliest girl
I've ever seen (I've ever seen)
Sixteen candles
In my heart will glow
Forever and ever
Oh, I love you so (I love you so)
Happy birthday
Happy birthday, baby
I love you so, oh, oh, oh, oh
Happy birthday
Happy birthday, baby
I love you so, baby, baby, baby, baby
Happy birthday
Happy birthday, baby
I love you so
(We've Got) Blue Skies lyrics - Jackson 5
We've got blue skies
We've got blue skies
It seems like only yesterday
You gave your love to me
And we made a vow that through the years
Our love would always be
Whenever doubts would fill my mind
You'd brush my fears away
Look into my eyes and hold me close
And this is what you'd say
We've got blue skies, now can't you see?
There'll never ever be another love for me
The pleasant dreams we shared
Made our love stronger with each day
And the fears that haunted me
Seemed like a million miles away
When friends we knew would come to me
With lies about your love
I'd tell them happiness and sunny skies
Are all we're thinking of (We're thinking of)
We're so in love (We're so in love)
We're thinking of (We're thinking of)
Blue skies
Whoa-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh
Blue skies
Whoa-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh
Yeah, I see you there, you're kissing him
How can this really be?
Well, I guess it's time to realize
My dreams are more to me
And as I walk off thinking
What a fool I must have been
Like an echo from my yesterday
I hear you telling him (Telling him)
We've got blue skies, now can't you see?
There'll never ever be another love for me
We've got blue skies, now can't you see?
There'll never ever be another love for me
Blue skies, we've got blue skies
(Blue skies, now can't you see?)
Blue skies, we've got those blue skies
(There'll never ever be another love for me)
Blue skies, we've got blue skies, oh baby
(Blue skies, now can't you see?)
Blue skies, we've got blue skies
(There'll never ever be another love for me)
Blue skies, we've got blue skies
(Blue skies, now can't you see?)
Blue, blue skies, blue, blue skies
(There'll never ever be another love for me)
My Little Baby lyrics - My Little Baby
All my friends keep asking what do I see in you
Through their eyes your beauty doesn't show
Ooh, all they ask is justified looking through the naked eye
But through the eyes of my love I see
The inner beauty of you
That's why you're my little baby (my little baby)
That's why you're my little baby (my little baby)
I don't want love on the skin
It's got to come from deep within
That's why you're my little baby (my little baby)
My little baby (my little baby)
My heart controls my eyes
And your love I visualize, oh yeah!
All your so-called girlfriends who compliment your clothes
Know that they're you mama's hand-me-downs
Ooh, the fashion world's turning so fast
You're still trying to catch the past
But in my world of love your style
I know will always last
That's why you're my little baby (my little baby)
That's why you're my little baby (my little baby)
I don't care what experts say
Our love is tailor-made
That's why you're my little baby (my little baby)
My my my my little baby (my little baby)
Like a brand-new ermine coat
You keep me warm as toast, little baby
You know it's true, little baby
You know it's true, babe
You know it's true, little baby
You know it's true, babe
I'm sticking with you, little baby
I'm sticking with you, girl
I'm sticking with you, little baby
Always thrill me when you touch me
Honey, you thrill me when you kiss me, little baby, yeah
Oh, sweet baby, baby
I've got to say I'm thankful that you're
My little baby (my little baby), my little baby (my little baby)
You fill me up with pride (oh yeah)
Every time you're by my side, now now now now
Oh yeah, you're my little baby (my little baby)
My little baby (my little baby), my little baby (my little baby)
I've got to say I'm thankful that you're my little baby (my little baby)
My little baby (my little baby)
Oh yeah (my little baby), baby, yeah yeah
My little baby (my little baby), my little baby (my little baby)
Ooh yeah, baby (my little baby)
It's Great To Be Here lyrics - Jackson 5
So glad, so glad, so glad, so glad
To be back in your arms
Thank you, baby; thank you, baby; thank you, baby
Back where I belong
Oh, I went out to do my thing
And I was totally rejected
I put you down for love unknown
But it wasn't what I expected
So frightened and confused
I came running back to you
I got right down on my knees
And said, "Darling, won't you please?"
I don't know why you did it
But I'm not too proud to admit it, baby
Thank you, baby; thank you, baby
Back where I belong
It's great to be here, great to be here, ooh
It's great to be here in your arms
Back where I belong, woo
Adventure grabbed my heart
And took me away from you, honey
I met all kinds of pretty girls
In every town that I passed through
But that fiery senorita
Burned me down in Mexico
And I got kisses cold as ice
From my Alaskan Eskimo
I feel guilty and ashamed
But I'm gonna say it just the same, baby
Thank you, baby; thank you, baby, yeah
Back where I belong
It's great to be here, great to be here , ooh
It's great to be here in your arms
Gotta get this señorita
She gave me I'll just si ya!
While kissing in the igloo
My Eskimo said no no!
Yeah, baby
So glad, so glad, so glad, so glad, so glad
To be back in your arms
It's great to be here, great to be here
It's great to be here in your arms
Back where I belong
Baby, baby, baby, baby, ow!
It's great to be here, great to be here, ooh
It's great to be here in your arms, yeah
Back where I belong
It's great to be here, great to be here
It's great to be here in your arms
Back where I belong
Baby, baby, baby, baby, yeah
It's great to be here, great to be here
It's great to be here in your arms
Back where I belong
I'm so glad
It's great to be here, great to be here, ooh ooh
It's great to be here in your arms
Back where I belong
Honey Chile lyrics - Jackson 5
(originally by Martha Reeves & the Vandellas)
It was there on my grandma's farm
Where the grapes grew high on the vine
Yeah, that's where we first met little girl
But you ain't gonna amount to nothing
'Cause you ain't gonna work for nothing
Without you I ain't good for nothing, honey chile
Oh honey chile, you're sure about to drive me wild
And I love you so, can't let go now honey chile
Oh, sugar chile, I'd walk me a country mile
Just to be with you if that were true but honey chile
You don't act like a lady
'Cause you've been courting Davie
Its reputation shady oh honey chile
Hey you even went out with Callie
That night across the alley
Oh, I've been keeping tally honey chile
You're like grapes upon the vine
That went in granny's wine
'Cause like that home-made wine so sweet
You're sure enough driving me out of my mind now
Your friends with every playboy
Using me for a play toy
You ruined my pride and joy now honey chile
Oh honey chile, sure about to drive me wild
And I love you so, can't let go now honey chile
Oh, sugar chile, I'd walk me a country mile
Just to be with you if that were true of honey chile
Why don't you put on your shoes little girl
Then I can kiss you
Oh listen here now
One day I'm gonna get stronger
And I won't need you no longer
This feeling will be gone oh honey chile
Hey, I can't take disgracing
That ain't the way grandma raised me
You're gonna hurt me crazy honey chile
Hey, sugar chile, I'd walk me a country mile
Just to be with you if that were true of honey chile
Hey honey chile, sure about to drive me wild
And I love you so, can't let go now honey chile
I Will Find A Way lyrics - Jackson 5
One little kiss
Led to another and another and another
Then, ooh, I wanted you
And now I feel those good vibrations
Deep inside my soul
Telling me that you're my goal
But if I'm stepping out of line
If my words don't seem to rhyme
It's because I'm falling head over heels in love with you
Darling, please don't turn away
Open your heart and let me stay
And I will find a way
Oh, trying to get to you
Is like trying to get a little cat down from the top of a tree
You're scared of me
But believe my ladder to love
Is strong and it will never break
Your little heart will be safe
But if I'm stepping out of line
If my words don't seem to rhyme
It's because I'm falling head over heels in love with you
Darling, please don't be afraid
Open your heart and let me stay
And I will find a way
But if I'm stepping out of line
If my words don't seem to rhyme
It's because I'm falling head over heels in love with you
Darling, please don't be afraid
Open your heart and let me stay
And I will find a way
But if I'm stepping out of line
If my words don't seem to rhyme
It's because I'm falling head over heels in love with you
Darling, please don't be afraid
Open your heart and let me stay
And I will find a way into your heart, girl

Have yourself a merry little Christmas
Let your heart be light
From now on
Our troubles will be out of sight
Have yourself a merry little Christmas
Make the Yuletide gay
From now on
Our troubles will be miles away
Here we are as in olden days
Happy golden days of yore
Faithful friends who are dear to us
Gather near to us once more
Through the years we all will be together
If the fates allow
Hang a shining star upon the highest bough
And have yourself a merry little Christmas now
A merry, a merry, a merry little Christmas
And from now on
Our troubles will be miles away
Here we are as in olden days
Happy golden days of yore
Faithful friends who are dear to us

Santa Claus Is Comin' To Town lyrics - Jackson 5
Santa Claus is comin' to town
Santa Claus is comin' to town
You'd better watch out
You'd better not cry
You'd better not pout
I'm telling you why
Santa Claus is comin' to town
Santa Claus is comin' to town
Santa Claus is comin' to town
He's making a list
And checking it twice
Gonna find out who's naughty and nice
Santa Claus is comin' to town
Santa Claus is comin' to town
Santa Claus is comin' to town
He sees you when you're sleeping
He knows when you're awake
He knows if you've been bad or good
So, be good for goodness sake
Oh, you'd better watch out
You'd better not cry
Better not pout
I'm telling you why
Oh! Santa Claus is comin' to town
Santa Claus is comin' to town
Santa Claus is comin' to town
Santa Claus is comin' to town
Santa Claus is comin' to town
Santa Claus is comin' to town
Little tin horns
And little toy drums
Rooty-toot-toot
And rump-a-tum-tum
Curly-haired dolls
That tootle and coo
Elephants, boats and kiddie cars too
Oh! Santa Claus is comin' to town
Santa Claus is comin' to town
Santa Claus is comin' to town
One more time now...
Santa Claus is comin' to town
Santa Claus is comin' to town
Santa Claus is comin' to town
The Christmas Song lyrics - Jackson 5
Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas to... you
Chestnuts roasting on an open fire
Jack Frost nipping at your nose
Yuletide carols being sung by a choir
And folks dressed up like Eskimos (Everybody knows)
Everybody knows a turkey and some mistletoe
Help to make the season bright
Tiny tots with their eyes all aglow
Will find it hard to sleep tonight
They know that Santa's on his way
He's bringing lots of toys and goodies on his sleigh
And every mother's child is on the spy
To see if reindeer really know how to fly
And so, I'm offering this simple phrase
To kids from one to ninety-two
Though it has been said many times, many ways
(Merry Christmas) Merry Christmas
(Merry Christmas) Merry Christmas
(Merry Christmas to... to you)
Merry Christmas (Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas to you)
To you (Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas to you)
And you too
(Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way, oh)
Oh, Merry Christmas...to you
(Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas to you)
(Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas to you)
Merry Christmas (Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way...)
Up On The Housetop lyrics - Jackson 5
Here comes Santa Claus
Here comes Santa Claus
Here he comes, here he comes
Here comes Santa Claus
Here comes Santa Claus
Here he comes, here he comes
Up on the housetop, reindeer pause
Out jumps good old Santa Claus
Down through the chimney with lots of toys
All for everyone's Christmas joys
Tito had just one desire
That he gets a new guitar
But he wants a guarantee
That it won't play out of key
Ho, ho, ho! Who wouldn't go?
Ho, ho, ho! Who wouldn't go?
Up on the housetop, click, click, click
Down through the chimney with old St. Nick
(I said) Ho, ho, ho! Who wouldn't go?
Ho, ho, ho! Who wouldn't go?
Up on the housetop, click, click, click
Down through the chimney with old St. Nick
Here comes Santa Claus
Here comes Santa Claus
Here he comes, here he comes
Here comes Santa Claus
Here comes Santa Claus
Here he comes, here he comes
Jackie's almost six-feet tall
But no hot shot at basketball
Bring him a basket three-feet tall
Maybe he'll play like a pro
Marlon wears his shoes so thin
He's gone through his socks again
He's always dancing as you know
(So bring me some shoes with lots of sole)
Ho, ho, ho! Who wouldn't go?
Ho, ho, ho! Who wouldn't go?
Up on the housetop, click, click, click
Down through the chimney with old St. Nick
(I said) Ho, ho, ho! Who wouldn't go?
Ho, ho, ho! Who wouldn't go?
Up on the housetop, click, click, click
Down through the chimney with old St. Nick
Patter patter pitter patter
Pitter patter patter
Pitter patter pitter patter
Pitter patter patter
Oh, Dasher, Dancer, Prancer and Vixen
Come on, Comet, Cupid, Donner and Blixen
To the top of the porch, to the top of the wall
Now dash away, dash away, dash away all!
Did you read Santa Claus my list?
All the girls you're waiting to kiss?
Mike, that list was only a joke
Too late, Jermaine, he's bringing you mistletoe
But you just want toys and stuff
Yeah, but that's not even half enough
What I want means more than fun
What's that? Love and peace for everyone
Up on the house top reindeer stand
Waiting for that dear old man
Up to the chimney with gifts to spare
And lots of Christmas joy to share
Ho, ho, ho! Who wouldn't go?
Ho, ho, ho! Who wouldn't go?
Up on the housetop, click, click, click
Up out through the chimney with old St. Nick
Ho, ho, ho! Who wouldn't go?
Ho, ho, ho! Who wouldn't go?
Up on the housetop, click, click, click
Up through the chimney with old St. Nick
Ho, ho, ho! Who wouldn't go?
Ho, ho, ho! Who wouldn't go?
Up on the housetop, click, click, click
Up through the chimney with old St. Nick
Ho, ho, ho! Who wouldn't go?
Ho, ho, ho! Who wouldn't go?
Up on the housetop, click, click, click
Up through the chimney with old St. Nick
Frosty The Snowman lyrics - Jackson 5
Frosty the snowman was a jolly happy soul
With a corncob pipe and a button nose
And two eyes made out of coal
Frosty the snowman is a fairy tale they say
He was made of snow but the children
Know how he came to life one day
There must have been some magic in that
Old silk hat they found
For when they placed it on his head
He began to dance around
Frosty the snowman
Was alive as he could be
And the children say he could laugh
And play just the same as you and me
Thumpety thump thump
Thumpety thump thump
Look at Frosty go
Thumpety thump thump
Thumpety thump thump
Over the hills of snow
Frosty the snowman knew
The sun was hot that day
So he said
"Let's run and
We'll have some fun
Now before I melt away."
Down to the village
With a broomstick in his hand
Running here and there all
Around the square saying
"Catch me if you can."
He led them down the streets of town
Right to the traffic cop
And he only paused a moment when
He heard him holler "Stop!"
For Frosty the snow man
Had to hurry on his way
But he waved goodbye saying
"Don't you cry
I'll be back again some day."
Thumpety thump thump
Thumpety thump thump
Look at Frosty go
Thumpety thump thump
Thumpety thump thump
Over the hills of snow
The Little Drummer Boy lyrics - Jackson 5
"Come," they told me. Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum
"Our newborn King to see." Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum
"Our finest gifts we bring." Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum
"To lay before the King." Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum
Rum-pum-pum-pum, rum-pum-pum-pum
"So to honor him." Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum
(Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum)
"When we come (We come)."
Baby Jesus, pa-rum-pum-pum-pum
(Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum)
I'm a poor boy, too, pa-rum-pum-pum-pum
(Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum)
I have no gift to bring, pa-rum-pum-pum-pum
(Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum)
That's fit to give our King, pa-rum-pum-pum-pum
Rum-pum-pum-pum, rum-pum-pum-pum
Shall I play for you, pa-rum-pum-pum-pum
On my drum (On my drum)
Mary nodded, pa-rum-pum-pum-pum
(Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum)
The ox and mule kept time, pa-rum-pum-pum-pum
(Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum)
I played my drum for him, pa-rum-pum-pum-pum
(Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum)
I played my best for him, pa-rum-pum-pum-pum
Rum-pum-pum-pum, rum-pum-pum-pum
Then he smiled at me, pa-rum-pum-pum-pum
(Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum)
Me and my drum (Me and my drum)
Rum-pum-pum-pum, rum-pum-pum-pum
Rum-pum-pum-pum (Rum-pum-pum-pum)
Rum-pum-pum-pum, rum-pum-pum-pum
Rum-pum-pum-pum (Rum-pum-pum-pum)
Rum-pum-pum-pum, rum-pum-pum-pum
Rum-pum-pum-pum (Rum-pum-pum-pum)
Rudolph The Red-Nosed Reindeer lyrics - Jackson 5
You know Dasher and Dancer, Prancer and Vixen
Comet and Cupid, Donner and Blitzen
But do you recall
The most famous reindeer of all?
Hey, Rudolph
Whoa, Rudolph
Rudolph, the Red-Nosed Reindeer
Had a very shiny nose
And if you ever saw it
You would even say it glowed
All of the other reindeer
Used to laugh and call him names
They never let poor Rudolph
Join in any reindeer games
Oh, then one foggy Christmas Eve
Santa came to say (hey, Rudolph)
Rudolph, with your nose so bright
Won't you guide my sleigh tonight?
Then how the reindeer loved him
As they shouted out with glee
Rudolph, the Red-Nosed Reindeer
You'll go down in history
You'll go down in history
Hey, Rudolph
Hey, Rudolph
Whoa, Rudolph
Red-Nosed Reindeer
Christmas Won't Be The Same This Year lyrics - Jackson 5
Merry Christmas, everybody
Yeah. Merry Christmas, everybody. Big deal
Hey, man. What's wrong with you Jermaine?
Yeah, that's no kind of attitude
This only happens once a year
Hey, fellas, don't bug him
He and his girl just broke up. So, get off his back
Can't you see there's tears in his eyes?
Yeah, he's crying. Look he's crying
Don't cry, don't cry, don't cry
Christmas won't be the same this year
Without her loving arms holding you so near
Christmas won't be the same this year
(No, it won't now, darling. No, no)
Without her loving arms holding you so near
I see the lights
But they don't shine for me
I see the presents
Underneath the Christmas tree
Our house decorated
My friends are celebrating
Christmas won't be the same this year
(No, no, no)
Without her loving arms holding you so near
(It won't be the same this year)
Christmas won't be the same this year
(The things we used to do, my darling)
Without her loving arms holding you so near
(It's all over)
The neighborhood kids
Are having so much fun
Counting off the days
'Til Santa Claus comes
And I see the mistletoe
Hanging from my door
I wish I could kiss you again
Like I did before
Christmas won't be the same this year
(No, no, oh, oh)
Without her loving arms holding you so near
(Yeah, yeah)
So go on, girl
And have your fun
Don't spoil your time
Thinking about me
This time next year
My darling dear
Hopefully
You'll be having dinner with me
Christmas won't be the same this year
(No, no)
Without her loving arms holding you so near
(No, no, it won't. It won't be the same without you, darling)
Christmas won't be the same this year
Without her loving arms holding you so near
(No, no, no, no. It won't. It won't be the same)
Give Love On Christmas Day lyrics - Jackson 5
People making lists, buying special gifts
Taking time to be kind to one and all
It's that time of year when good friends are near
And you wish you could give more than just presents from a store
Why don't you give love on Christmas Day? (on Christmas Day)
Even the man who has everything
Would be so happy if you would bring
Him love on Christmas Day (on Christmas Day)
No greater gift is there than love
People you don't know smile and nod hello
Everywhere there's an air of Christmas joy
It's that once of year when the world's sincere
And you'd like to find a way to show the things that words can't say
Why don't you give love on Christmas Day? (on Christmas Day)
The man on the street and the couple upstairs
All need to know there's someone who cares
Give love on Christmas Day (on Christmas Day)
No greater gift is there than love
What the world needs is love
Yes, the world needs more love
Why don't you give love on Christmas Day? (on Christmas Day)
Every little child on Santa's knee
Has room for your love underneath his tree
Give love on Christmas Day (on Christmas Day)
No greater gift is there than love
What the world needs is love
Yes, the world needs more love
Give love on, give love on Christmas Day
(On Christmas Day)
Someday At Christmas lyrics - Jackson 5
Someday at Christmas, men won't be boys
Playing with bombs like kids play with toys
One warm December our hearts will see
A world where men are free, ooh
Someday at Christmas, there'll be no wars
When we have learned what Christmas is for
When we have found what life's really worth
There'll be peace on earth
Someday all our dreams will come to be
Someday in a world where men are free
Maybe not in time for you and me
But someday at Christmas time
Someday at Christmas, we'll see a land
With no hungry children, no empty hand
One happy morning people will share
A world where people care, whoa-oh
Someday at Christmas, there'll be no tears
When all men are equal and none have fears
One shining moment, one prayer away
From our world today, whoa-oh
Someday all our dreams will come to be
Someday in a world where people are free
Maybe not in time for you and me
But someday at Christmas time
Someday at Christmas, man will not fail
Hate will be gone and love will prevail
Someday a new world that we can start
With hope in every heart, whoa-oh
Someday at Christmas, hmm, hmm, hmm
Someday at Christmas, hmm, hmm
Hmm, hmm
But someday at Christmas time
Someday at Christmas time
I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus lyrics - Jackson 5
Merry Christmas and a happy new year
This is Michael Jackson and The Jackson 5 wishing a happy holiday to all mountain fans
Wow! Mommy's kissing Santa Claus!
I saw mommy kissing Santa Claus (kissing, kissing, Santa Claus)
Underneath the mistletoe last night
She didn't see me creep
Down the stairs to have a peep
She thought that I was tucked up
In my bedroom, fast asleep
Then I saw mommy tickle, tickle (tickle, tickle, Santa Claus)
Underneath his beard so snowy white
Oh, what a laugh it would have been
If daddy had only seen
Mommy kissing Santa Claus last night
He saw mommy kissing (kissing, kissing, Santa Claus)
I did! I really did see mommy kissing Santa Claus
And I'm gonna tell my dad
Then I saw mommy tickle (tickle, tickle, Santa Claus)
Underneath his beard so snowy white
Oh, what a laugh it would have been
If daddy had only seen
Mommy kissing Santa Claus last night
Oh, what a laugh it would have been
If daddy had only seen
Mommy kissing Santa Claus last night
I did! I did! I really did see mommy kissing Santa Claus
You gotta believe me! You just gotta believe me!
Come on, fellas, believe me!
You just gotta believe me! (I told you, I told you)
Little Christmas Tree lyrics - Jackson 5
I watch the snowflakes fall
Against my window pane
And wonder if you
Are watching snowflakes too
I take a walk downtown
To where you used to meet me
There's joy everywhere
But all that's waiting there is
Just a little Christmas tree
Looking sort of sad and lonely just like me
No one seems to care (no one seems to care)
They just went away and left it standing there
All alone on Christmas Eve
I hear the Christmas bells
(bum bum bum bum bum)
The happy people singing
The songs of good cheer that only bring me tears
I sadly close my eyes
And say a little prayer
You'll be waiting there for me
I look but all I see is
Just a little Christmas tree
Looking sort of sad and lonely just like me
No one seems to care (no one seems to care)
They just went away and left it standing there
All alone on Christmas Eve
This is the season of love
(This is the season of love)
But I'm as sad as I can be
(I'm as sad as can be)
Why did you have to leave me
(Why did you have to leave me)
(Why did you have to leave me)
Just a little Christmas tree
Looking sort of sad and lonely just like me
No one seems to care (no one seems to care)
They just went away and left it standing there
All alone on Christmas Eve
I'll Be There lyrics - Jackson 5
You and I must make a pact
We must bring salvation back
Where there is love, I'll be there (I'll be there)
I'll reach out my hand to you
I'll have faith in all you do
Just call my name and I'll be there (I'll be there)
And oh, I'll be there to comfort you
Build my world of dreams around you, I'm so glad that I found you
I'll be there with a love that's strong
I'll be your strength, I'll keep holding on
(Holding on, holding on, holding on) Yes, I will. Yes, I will
Let me fill your heart with joy and laughter
Togetherness, girl, is all I'm after
Whenever you need me, I'll be there (I'll be there)
I'll be there to protect you (Yeah, baby)
With an unselfish love that respects you
Just call my name and I'll be there (I'll be there)
And oh, I'll be there to comfort you
Build my world of dreams around you, I'm so glad that I found you
I'll be there with a love that's strong
I'll be your strength, I'll keep holding on
Hoo-hoo (Holding on, holding on, holding on) Yes, I will. Yes, I will
If you should ever find someone new
I know he better be good to you
'Cause if he doesn't, I'll be there (I'll be there)
Don't you know, baby, yeah, yeah
I'll be there, I'll be there
Just call my name (I'll be there), I'll be there
Just look over your shoulders, honey! Ooh
I'll be there, I'll be there
Whenever you need me (I'll be there), I'll be there
Don't you know, baby, yeah, yeah
I'll be there, I'll be there
Just call my name (I'll be there), I'll be there
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
I'll be there, I'll be there

Oh How Happy lyrics - Jackson 5
(originally by The Shades of Blue)
Oh how happy you have made me
Oh how happy you have made me
I have kissed your lips a thousand times
And more times than I can count
I have called you mine
You have stood by me in my darkest hour, see
Oh how happy you have made me
Oh how happy you have made me
Oh how happy you have made me
Oh how happy you have made me
In our years together
We had stormy weather
But our love has been so strong
But somehow we carry on, seeing
Oh how happy you have made me
Oh how happy you have made me
Oh how happy you have made me
Oh how happy you have made me
You brought joy to my empty life, yeah
And all that's wrong, you made it right
My love (my love), I love (my love)
I love, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh how happy you have made me
Oh how happy you have made me
Oh how happy (Oh how happy)
Oh how happy (Oh how happy)

Bridge Over The Troubled Water lyrics - Jackson 5
(originally by Simon & Garfunkel)
When you're weary
Feeling small
When tears are in your eyes
I'll dry them all
I'm on your side
Woh, when times get rough
And friends just can't be found
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
(When you're down and out)
(When you're on the street)
(When evening falls so hard)
(I will comfort you)
Ooh, I'll take your part
Oh, and darkness comes
And pain is all around
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
(I will lay me down)
(I will lay me down)
Sail on silver, girl
Sail on by
Your time has come to shine
All your dreams along the way, yeah
See how they shine
Oh, if you need a friend
I'm sailing right behind
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind
(I will ease your mind)
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind
(Like a bridge over troubled water)
I will be by your side
I will be by your side
Can I See You In The Morning lyrics - Jackson 5
Can I see you (Can I see you)
In the morning (In the morning)
Can I see you (Can I see you)
In the morning (In the morning)
Can I see you in the morning
Like I see you late tonight
Come and hold me
Come and hold me
Come and make me feel alright
In the morning
Can I see you in the morning?
Can I see you in the morning
Must I get down on my knees?
Come and take me
Come and take me
Do with me just what you please
Just a short walk in the sunshine
In the open side by side (In the morning)
Chance to hold you
Chance to hold you
Chance to hold my head up high
In the morning
They say you're too old for me
But I know you said that you'll wait for me, wait for me, oh
Can I, see you, in the morning sun, shining bright?
I wanna see you
I wanna see you
Can I, see you, in the morning sun, shining bright? (In the morning)
Can I see you?
Can I see you?
(Can I see you) In the morning
Can I see you (Can I see you)
In the morning (In the morning)
In the morning (In the morning)
Can I see you (Can I see you)
In the morning (In the morning)
Can I see you (Can I see you)
In the morning (In the morning)
Can I see you (In the morning)
Goin' Back To Indiana lyrics - Jackson 5
I'm going back to Indiana
Back to where I started from
Going back to Indiana
Indiana, here I come!
I spread my wings for greener pastures
I still ain't found what I was after
I've got the blues and that is why I sing
I just wanna do my thing, yeah!
I'm going back to Indiana
Indiana, here I come, yeah, yeah
I'm going back to Indiana
'Cause that's where my baby's from, yeah!
OK, Tito. You got it!
I'm going back to Indiana
Indiana, here I come
I'm going back to Indiana
'Cause that's where my baby's from
Yeah
Hollywood, you've got a lot of pretty things
I saw a lot of movie stars with diamond rings
But I ain't got my baby and I'm feeling wrong
That's why I gotta sing my song, yeah
I'm going back to Indiana
Indiana, here I come
I'm going back to Indiana
'Cause that is where my baby's from
Yeah
Ow!
I'm coming. I'm coming. I'm coming. I'm coming. I'm home. Yeah. Yeah
Ha ha sis boom bah
One more time for Roosevelt High
Johny Ray, Tex, Scooter and Lorenzo too
Watch T W Brown do the boogaloo!
Every soul that passes by
This song's for you from the Jackson 5
I'm coming home, it's plain to see
I still got Indiana soul in me!
Oh, yeah!
I'm going back to Indiana
Indiana, here I come
I'm going back to Indiana
'Cause that's where my baby's from
That's where is she is, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah (Yeah)

Mama's Pearl lyrics - Jackson 5
You send cold chills up and down my spine
We kiss for thrills, then you draw the line
Oh baby (Oh baby)
'Cause your mama told you that love ain't right
But don't you know good loving is the spice of life
Yeah
Mama's pearl, let down those curls
Won't you give my love a whirl

But just a little loving never hurt no one
Oh

Won't you give my love a whirl
Find what you been missing

Goody girl, let down those curls

Reach In lyrics - Jackson 5
Can't find no rhyme to it all
But still we keep on trying
The why and where of it all
Inside you the answer is lying
Reach in (reach in)
Find that tree of wisdom
Reach in (reach in)
Find out why you're livin'
Reach in (reach in)
Pull away that shade of sin
And let love shine in...
And let love shine in...
Shine, shine, shine, shine...
Don't take the easy way out
Believe there is a Maker
Don't be a body of doubt
In whom does live a faker
Reach in (reach in)
Find that tree of wisdom
Reach in (reach in)
Find out why you're livin'
Reach in (reach in)
Pull away that shade of sin
And let love shine in...
And let love shine in...
A soul without love
Is a soul without meaning
And the Lord up above
He'll destroy every being
Reach in...ooh, reach in...ooh yeah, tell 'em, baby
Reach in (reach in)
Find that tree of wisdom
Reach in (reach in)
Find out why you're livin'
Reach in (reach in)
Reach in, oh oh, why don't you, why don't you, why don't you
Why don't you reach in, into your soul, oh
Reach in (reach in)
Find the tree of wisdom
Reach in (reach in)
Find out why you're livin'
Reach in, reach in, yeah
Come on, girl, now
Reach in, ooh, ooh
Reach in (reach in)
Find the tree of wisdom
Reach in (reach in)
Find out why you're livin'
Reach in (reach in)
Reach in...
