Theodis Ealey - "I'm The Man You Need"

This sounds a lot like the ever-so-popular "Stand Up In It" (see my post dated 2/19/2012).  So, I'll just say that this is a variation of a theme.  I think Theodis is a super talented guitar player and we don't hear enough of what he can do.
Enjoy!

Charles Wilson - "What One Man Won't Do"

What one man won't do, another man will.  So true, so true.  

Chorus
What one man won’t do, another man will
What one man won’t do, another man will
What one man won’t do, another man will
What one man won’t do, another man will

My woman told me
I’m tired of you doggin me
The way you treat me
I wouldn’t treat a dog that way
You say you love me
But I can’t tell baby
When a man loves a woman
He treats her like a lady

She said when I need lovin’
You’re never around
When my body gets hot baby
I need a man to love me up and down

Chorus

You always promise me
You gonna treat me right
Give me all the love I can handle
Handle every night
You keep making a fool of me
And that ain’t right baby
She said I need a man at home with me
To give me good lovin’ every night
When I need lovin’
You never around
She said when my body gets hot baby
I need a man to love me up and down

Chorus
Enjoy!

Omar Cunningham - "Check To Check"

Now I know that just about everyone can relate to this song.  Omar is struggling like all the rest of us and is just barely making it check to check.  "Check To Check" was released back in 2003 on his "Hell In The House" CD.  This verse is my favorite:

Sometimes my pockets be empty and I just don’t know where I’m going to turn
Lights, water, and gas are necessities
But I’m busting my butt trying to get groceries
Soon as I get money it leaves my hand
Tired of wrapping up pennies and picking up cans
Cause what I ain’t got, you sure can’t get
I’m trying my best cause I’m just making it check to check

I'm trying my best cause I'm just making it check to check!

Sir Charles Jones - "On My Own Again"

Sir Charles Jones is such a talented singer and is one of the most steadily consistent southern soul singers out there.  Almost everything he touches turns to gold.  "On My Own Again" is a beautiful song about losing the one you love. He can't believe that things are over with his woman and that he's on his own again.  You can feel his pain and his loneliness.

I can’t believe after all these years I’m on my own again
It’s finally over baby
Though I’m on my own again
Deep down in my heart I wish you true love, my friend

Chorus
Said I’m on my own again (4x)

Said I’m on my own again
Girl I lost my only friend
We’ve been through some things
Ain’t meant to be
Oh but I never thought it’d be you and me
And I don’t know just what to do
Can’t see myself living life without you
But we got to move on and still be friends
Can’t believe I’m on my own again

Chorus

Oh I’ve been crying so many tears
When I think of all the many good years
That we shared, shared together
Never thought that we would see stormy weather
Sometimes it seems like a bad dream
And I can’t wake up from a mad dream
But we got to move on and still be friends
I can’t believe I’m on my own again

Chorus

Talking…


Chorus

Sitting here crying, my eyes are red; sitting here crying, because I'm on my own again.
Enjoy!

Betty Padgett - "Never Coming Home"

I love this song and the message Betty Padgett gives.  She said that when you were out there spending money on all your women she was saving money for the days when her tears would stop.  She left and told him that she's never coming home anymore  She can make it on her own!  I heard that!!  See my post dated 2/20/2011, http://southernsoulparadise.blogspot.com/2011/02/never-coming-home.html.

O. B. Buchana - "It's Over"

I loved you so much and wanted you to be my wife.  I gave you everything but this relationship was over after you made love to my best friend.  I had to cut you loose.  Oh O.B., you didn't need her!

Such a pretty song!

Miz Goldie - "Why"

This is a beautiful ballad. You know all those times in your relationship when you ask yourself 'why?'  Miz Goldie asks why she always loves so hard...why did things have to change when they should have stayed the same?  She says that she asks herself these questions over and over again and the answer is always the same - the way she feels about her guy is the answer to why.

Enjoy!
