She's my woman

Cornerstone Blues

|

Oh yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Oh yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
We're just ??? making music, it's Cornerstone
We're just standing here making music in Cornerstone
'Cause we would rather be with you than to be alone
I got my dark sunglasses
The one I had through my youth
I've got my black leather jacket
I brushed my tooth
Don't read the bible 'less you want to know the truth

My Feet Are On The Rock
02:12
|
|||
Oh no, they'd never let me go to no dances, no sir Paul, you're not supposed to dance. Not supposed to dances. They had nice parties. [Spoken by grandma Rubie]
I grew up in San Francisco, an all black neighbourhood. I remember it very well. I was not allowed to dance. But in my room I could move around if I felt like it, and had the chance. I started playing music when I was five, 1952, writing down my feelings. Everybody's life is different, and so's mine. Isn't that right grandma? [Spoken by Larry]
My feet are on a rock, my name is on a roll
But moving and a grooving does not satisfy my soul
So when I’m down I go off on my own
When I feel moved I dance before the throne
Just like David [Spoken]
My friends think that I’m strange
Guess they think that I’m a fool
You know they look at me in church
And they laugh at me in school
But I believe someone rolled away the stone
And I am not alone
So when I feel the need I dance before the throne
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh

Da doo da dun bau

It’s not for sale, it can’t be bought
Mmm, lean closer, let me fill you in
You know, baby you need a friend

You’re finding out they’re not worth a thing, yeah yeah
What good’s a soul that cannot sing
Take a chance, take a chance with me, ah-ah-eh
Open your eyes and you will see
I own nothing but I’m a wealthy man
I’ll share it with you if you take his hand
Your daddy’s money gonna give you the blues
Just tell your mama take her hands off of you
Pick up the cross, God’ll see you through
Bau bau bau wey yeah
You know I love you baby
I’ll love you hard and love you long
And I don’t want this love to perish
So listen to the message and the music
And the lyrics of this song
Yeah yeah yeah yeah-uh
Yeah [Very faintly]
A camel in a needle’s eye
Yeah, that’s what we’re talking about [Spoken]
Not all the rich have to die
Just follow closely, do not stray, yeah, yeah
You can probably keep your money
Just give your soul away, yay yay yay yay
Don’t negotiate, just stop and pray
Lifting your head up to heaven and say, yay
Please forgive me, take these things away, yeah
And then keep walking
Yeah, yeah, walk tall doll
You fall down, you get back up again
You carry that cross, a lamp unto your feet
Yeah, a light unto your path
It’s foolishness to them that, to them that perish
Yeah yeah yeah
I’m gonna love you till your dying day, yeah yeah
Until you turn to God or turn me away
What can I do, there’s nothing left to say
It’s up to you, just keep walking, hey hey ey

Until you turn to God or turn me away

02:20
|

I feel like dying
Done all I can
Well I lost my woman
She ran off with another man

Like I got nothing to lose
I know I need something
But I do not need these blues

What am I gonna do
What am I gonna do about it

And I can't take the strain
My life's in trouble
And I cannot take this pain

Oh I need a friend
Well you can just say
What am I gonna do about it
What am I gonna do
What am I gonna do about it
What am I gonna do

A Note From Mr God
02:45
|
|||
I was so down
My chin on the ground
Wondering what to do
Then suddenly I was surprised from out of the blue
The birds sang their song as I walked along
I suddenly felt quite odd
‘Cause out of the sky fell a note from Mr God
And it said
You got the blues but you can shake it
If you have faith you can make it
You have a chance
You must take it while you can
You have a choice but you must choose it
Don't give up hope
Never lose it
And that's what it said on the note from Mr God
Oh
I like it [Spoken, faintly]
God [Faintly]
And it said
You have the blues but you can shake it
If you have faith you can make it
You have a chance
You must take it while you can
You have a choice but you must choose it
Don't give up hope
Never lose it
And that's what it said on the note from Mr God
So if you feel down
Your chin on the ground
And suddenly you feel odd
Just look on the ground for that note from Mr God

Everybody Work
04:05
|

You know the flesh will make you twist and shout
So with fear and trembling work your salvation out
Everybody work
Everybody work
There are ten commandments, now get this straight
If you keep the first two you'll fulfil the other eight
Everybody work
Everybody work
There's tension between the brothers and the sisters
People need to get along
Open up your hearts to one another
And learn to sing this song
Holy spirit will touch your soul
Stand still, don't rock and roll
Everybody work
Everybody work work work work
If your woman walks out, starts messing about
You must pray for her safety, 'til she works it out
Obedience is better than sacrifice
If you don't die once then you're gonna die twice
Holy spirit make you move about
So with fear and trembling work your salvation out
Everybody work work
Yeah everybody work work work work
(Work work) The spirit is willing
(Work work) But the flesh is weak
And if you're holding (work work) back
It's hard to hear (work work) God speak
Everybody work work work work
Everybody work work work work
Everybody work work
A long time (work work) ago Jesus came to earth (work work)
People didn't wanna know (work work)
Went to the church (work) and he said this is wrong (work work)
If he were here today he'd (work work) come to us and he'd say this is wrong (work work)
You don't really love one another, not yet (work work) you don't
I said love them as I love them (work work)
Love one another (work work), love one another (work work), love one another (work work)
If you don't know what I'm saying (work work) go home and pray (work work)

Rock-a-bye baby in the tree top
You know the bough’s gonna break
And the cradle will rock
You're one year older than you were the year before
And each day baby, I love you more and more
You make me laugh when I see you crawl across the floor
What y’ doing boy
Shake your rattle and crawl [x4]
Stay in your stroller when your momma’s shopping at the mall
Well I love my son Michael, he’s as good as a boy can be
And I hug him and I kiss him and I bounce him up upon my knee
And then I put him on the floor and say baby won’t you rock with me
That’s right I say c’mon
Shake your rattle and crawl, shake baby shake yeah
Shake your rattle and crawl, stand up and walk tall
And you can count on me 'cause I’ll be there to catch you when you fall
All right
Well the serpent was hanging from the tree just like a leaf
Oh yeah (shake shake)
And when Eve walked by he said lady I’ll make this brief
(Shake shake)
When Adam took the second bite they rubbed their eyes in disbelief
And God told the devil
Shake your rattle and crawl (Yeh yeh) [x4]
I’ll be stomping on your head, you’ll be dancing at the dead man’s ball
All right (Shake your rattle and crawl) (Yeh yeh)
(Shake your rattle and crawl) Oh (Yeh yeh) You know what I like
(Shake your rattle and crawl) (Yeh yeh) That's it
(Shake your rattle and crawl) (Yeh yeh) Oh yeah
Yeah

Dear Malcolm, Dear Alwyn
02:37
|

Dear Malcolm, dear Alwyn
You're my favorite singers in England
And I love you so much
You got the holy spirit's touch
You're much more than just a two man band
I got a memo from Turner
He's a poet, I'm a learner
And he says you're coming back to L.A.
So I'll see you when you land
I'll hope your schedule's not too planned
I know you can't, but I wish you could stay
I miss you my friends
I think about you all the time
You're so far away
Well I hope you're feeling fine
Beware of the snakes and the robbers and the fakes
And the guys who want to take a percent
You don't need them anymore
God is gonna close that door
It's getting time to pack up your tent
Dear Malcolm (dear Malcolm), dear Alwyn (dear Alwyn)
La la la la la la
La la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la
I miss you my friends
I think about you all the time
You're so far away
Well I hope you're feeling fine
Dear Malcolm (dear Malcolm), dear Alwyn (dear Alwyn)
You're my favorite singers in England
And your songs are so simple
But they take me to the temple
I guess I'm just your number one fan

That's What Love Is For
03:50
|
|||
Sorry, I left my voice in Australia. It'll catch up with me on a later flight [Spoken]
Love is warm if love is real
But if it's false and cold as steel
It can break your heart
Tear your dreams apart
But love can bless you when it's true
Give you hope and guide you through
The darkest corridor
That's what love is for
You have come and now the emptiness is gone
You hung the light between the darkness and the dawn
Don't be pushing back and forth, you're gonna hurt somebody. You go stand out there by yourself and rock if you want. Yeah. This ain't rock and roll you know, this is the christian life. Not supposed to sway back and forth, supposed to stand tall and eh, solid and [Spoken]
I love you and you love me
If I am all I'll ever be
Is that enough for you
And hope will guide us through
We grow strong, our hearts grow well
We withstand the gates of hell
And walk towards heaven's door
That's what love is for
You have come and now the emptiness is gone
You hung the light between the darkness and the dawn
I keep remembering sorrow from the past
Look ahead tomorrow to brighter days
Without your love my hope would never last
True love comes from the father
I, I keep remembering
It is the last verse soon. Hey this ain't show business, I'm only here because this is life [Spoken]
Life is hard but love abides
Through the storms and raging tides
We're safe among the shores
That's what love is for
We're safe among the shores
That's what love is for
That's what love is for
That's what love is for

You Did It For Me
03:27
|
|||
Oh how they hurt you
They didn't know from the start
They didn't know how they wounded your loving heart
They were blind and reckless
They drove a nail through each hand
Oh-oh, didn't they understand
Oh oh oh, I know, now I can see
Oh oh oh, I know, you did it for them
And you did it for me
You created the earth
By your command it moves
They mocked you, come down king of the Jews
I wasn't there in the garden
But I believe you cried
And that the sky turned black the moment you died
Oh oh oh, I know, now I can see
Oh oh oh, I know, you did it for them
And you did it for me
You did it for me
You did it for me
You gave your life up
So that I can be free
An' I belong to you eternally
Wo oh oh, I know
You did it for them, you did it for me
Oh oh oh, I know
You did it for them, you did it for us, you did it for me
You did it for me

...going on in there?
Will this thing work as a PA?
Is there anyone alive in there?
Shoot, the whole place has been renovated
Aaah
Hello, hello. We're in the message booth in the ice rink. Can you hear me?
Give me that thing
Wait a minute, wait a minute. Please be careful breaking in. If this thing gets loose there's no stopping it. It's all over the rink, it's blocking all the exits
That sounds like Bobby
It's got some strange life force. We're safe for the moment. Please be very careful, many people have been killed already
There's only three of us left here, and everyone else escaped or was killed. I don't think it can get to us but we can't get out
Oh come on man you gotta let us get in there, he's our best friend
Look you two, em, go on over to the fire unit and get some helmets or jackets and look official and try to help out. Williams, will you go with 'em?
Right sir
Can you tell us the nature of the thing?
Hey Bobby
I'm sorry
Bobby
Tell them what the thing...
