(*) Baby this time I know
Yes you fooled around and you fell in love
Honey I tell you so
Yes you fooled around and you fell in love

(* repeat)

Boy you came along
And you took my heart
Gave it quite a start
You had a love, fit like a glove
Yes, it was the perfect love
Don't get me wrong
But I've heard that song
I've seen that dance
And I know romance
All this to say it's a new day
I've spoken to the owl
The jig is up

(* repeat 2 times)

Now there you go
You found a toy that brings you joy
The love I feel - it still remains
But you're not the same
I see the change
You've been acting strange
I feel the pain
I can't stand the strain
What can I do
I still love you
Wanting you, needing you
Holding you, loving you

(* repeat 4 times)

I'M A GOOD GIRL EASY STREET PRETTY BABY

(*) Oh what is this feeling I feel
I don't like it - no
Honey I don't know what's come over me
I mustn't lose control
You see I'm a good girl
Oh what is this feeling I feel
I don't like it - no
Honey I don't know what's come over me
I mustn't lose control of my senses

Even when I don't want to baby
I can't stop the feelin'
It just seems to happen
And even when I don't need to baby
I can't help myself
You always seem to win

(* repeat)

Even when I first met you boy
I knew it'd be good but never like this
And even when you're so bad
I can't hurt you no 'cause
I just hurt myself

(* repeat 2 times ad lib)

(*) Easy Street
The sidewalk's cleaner
Easy Street
The grass is greener
Easy Street, Easy Street

I've spent some time on lonely street
Right 'crosstown that's where I used to be
When I fell by the wayside you see
I got wrapped up in me
And moved to only street
I was searching high and low
Looking for a place to go
I caught the bus of opportunity
Hopped into the front seat
And I got off on

(* repeat 2 times)

Poundin' down the meanest streets
And my stomach's wonderin'
Where am I gonna get my next meal
Been handed quite a deal
My cycle's incomplete
I had corns on my feet
From the hours I walked the beat
I'd like to drop it from my memory
I found a way in me to wake the dead end

(* repeat 5 times and fade)

(*) Pretty Baby grew into a lady
The people don't know what your mama know
They don't
Pretty Baby

In the light of the dawn
A pretty babe was born
Her mother she had sworn to take good care of her
Every night mom would pray
Her life would not be torn
Her clothes would not be worn
Until they dropped off of her
My child, you dear, don't have no fear
I'll shed the tears, keep your head clear
My Pretty Baby

(* repeat)

Little girl I want you to attend the finest schools
And never be a fool
I've got experience
Learn all that you can
You'll find that in the end
You'll learn how to depend on yourself
It makes me glad you have the things I didn't have
Never be sad, my Pretty Baby

(* repeat)

The people don't know what your mama know
They don't
(repeat 4 times)

Pretty Baby grew into a lady
(repeat)

The people don't know what your mama know
They don't
(repeat 2 times)

Pretty Baby
