Marvin Sease - "Too Good To Be With You"

If you haven't felt like this, you probably know somebody who has been in this situation.  We all know someone who's been mistreated and they were just too good to be with that person.  Marvin says it so well in this song.

Ladies and gentlemen

I wonder do you feel the same way I do

About the person you’re living with

I want everybody to listen to this song

And tell me do you feel the way I do

Last night I sat my woman down and this is what I told her

Ya’ll listen to me good, hear

I gave you the best of my years

Stayed back there and shedded tears

Fussing at me, staying out all night long

When you know you did me wrong

Promises broken day and night

You wouldn’t do right to save your life

I can’t take no more, I’ve got to go

Don’t try to stop me ‘cause it won’t work

I’m too good, too good to be with you

I think I’m too good, too damn good to be with you

Misery that’s all you gave

Headaches, nothing but pain

I really tried to stay with you

But you wouldn’t do nothing I asked you to

Playing games that’s all you do

You can talk the talk but you can’t walk the walk

I’m leaving you, this time I’m gone

I think that I can make it on my own

Chorus

I’m too good, too good to be with you

I think I’m too good, too damn good to be with you

I think I’m too good, too good to be with you

I think I’m too good, too damn good to be with you

Now I’m not trying to cause problems in nobody’s home

And most of all, I’m not trying to break up nobody’s home

But I got a question I want to ask everybody

Am I the only one feel like this

If you feel the way I do

I want everybody to lift their voices and sing with me right here

Chorus

I'm too good to be with you!

Mr. X - "Wiggle, Wiggle, Wiggle"

This is played a lot down south and it's a nice song for the dance floor.  

I like the way you move honey

Come on and dance for me

Ooh let me see you wiggle

Girl I like the way you move

When you’re dancing on the dance floor

The way you move your sexy body

Ooh it put me in the mood

You got on your red dress baby

And you’re stepping in your high heel shoes

I don’t know how you do it when you’re moving around, baby

But it sho, I like the way you move

Chorus

When you wiggle, wiggle, wiggle

And you jiggle, jiggle, jiggle,

Turn it all around

And drop it like it’s hot

I like the way you wiggle, wiggle, wiggle

And jiggle, jiggle, jiggle

Turn it all around

And drop it like it’s hot

Hey fellas in the club

What you’re doing - sippin’ on a drink

When they see your sexy body moving baby

Oh I know what they think

But you don’t never stop movin’ oh no

You just never stop your groove

If one of those fellas could take you home tonight darling

Ain’t no telling what they might do

When you wiggle, wiggle, wiggle

From side to side

When you jiggle, jiggle, jiggle

You make a grown man cry

Chorus

When you wiggle and drop it like it's hot!
Enjoy!!

Chuck Strong - "3 N A Bed"

Have you ever been involved with someone and you just know his/her mind is on someone else?  What a terrible feeling.  Chuck Strong says that it feels as if there are three people sleeping in his bed - him, his wife, and the guy in her mind.  He says that three is a crowd and one of them has to go.  I feel for you Chuck!

Enjoy!

Chuck Strong - "All The Woman I Need"

This is such a very pretty love song and it's about a man who's truly in love with his wife.  He doesn't want her to be stressed or feel insecure - he loves her just the way she is.  What a man, what a man!

You’re not perfect

All the woman I need

You’re not perfect

You're always busy taking care of everyone else

Waking me up, dressing the kids

You don’t have time for yourself

Lately you’ve been stressing

Not in the mood for having fun

You can’t remember the last time

You got your nails and your hair done

Now you don’t have to worry or feel insecure

One thing will never change on this you can be sure

Chorus

You’re all the woman I need

You’re not perfect but you’re perfect for me

And I appreciate you so don’t you cry

You’re not perfect but neither am I

You ain’t getting no younger a few lines are beginning to show

Things that used to turn you on don’t turn you on no more

You gained a little weight and your waistline ain’t what it was

The way I see it darling there is more of you to love

Now you don’t have to worry or feel insecure

One thing will never change on this you can be sure

Chorus

I know sometimes you think life has passed you by

You get so discouraged you want to break down and cry

There are so many things you could have done with your life

But I thank God every day that he made you, he made you my wife

Chorus

I don’t care that your waistline ain’t what it was

There is more for me to hold on to and for me to love

And I want you to know straight from my heart

That I’ll kiss, I’ll caress, every one of your stretch marks

Enjoy!

Ms. Jody - "Still Strokin'"

I missed today's top 25 countdown that's done at noon every Sunday afternoon on Spice Internet Radio (http://www.wsir-db.com/), but I did happen to catch the new number one song - Still Strokin' by Ms. Jody!!  It's my most favorite song right now and I love it - see my post dated 3/18/2013.

Little Milton - "Just One Moment"

This line says it all:  just one moment with you is worth all of the changes she could ever put me through.  Little Milton, like so many others, has a wife at home but is in love with his girlfriend and repeatedly stays out all night with her.  His wife is mad when he gets home and of course she wants to know where he's been. Towards the end of the song he says that he needs a brand new lie to tell.  He even goes so far to say that if you could spend one day in his shoes, you'd know why he keeps running back to her.  Ladies, if your man feels this way about another woman, take a close look at your relationship and leave him.

Now, with that being said, I may not like what is happening in this story but this has to be one of my most favorite Little Milton songs. The melody is simply beautiful.  "Just One Moment" is on his Guitar Man CD which I bought some years ago (it was released in 2002). This is one of those CDs that I would drop in the tray and let it play from the first song to the last; and then repeat it in its entirety, over and over.  Little Milton sings this so well and it's such a moving song in spite of his infidelity!  The man's in love!

If you get a chance, check out Johnnie Taylor's version of "Just One Moment" that was recorded back in 1974 - it's beautiful, too!

Well baby we’ve done it again, over stayed our time

Looks like time just flies when you and me are together

I know I’m going to catch plenty hell when I get home

But hey, it’s alright, I don’t care, you know why - I’ll tell you

Listen to me

Chorus

Just one moment, one moment with you

Is worth all the changes she could ever put me through

Just one moment, one moment with you

Is worth all the changes she could ever put me through

The sun is coming up and it’s time to go home

She’ll want to know where I’ve been all night long

I’ll give her some excuse like so many times before

But in anger she’ll reply, Milton you’re a lying so and so

But the truth is you’re every little thing she’s not

But what she’s missing

I tell the whole wide world you’ve got

Chorus

I never thought I’d ever see the day

That going home to her would make me feel this way

But if you could spend one day in my shoes

You’d see why I lie to her to spend the night with you

With you it’s heaven but with her it’s hell

That’s why this morning I need a brand new lie to tell

Chorus

You see without you baby I’m weak

But with you I’m strong

And that makes me able to go through the hard times

That I go through when I get home

And you know something, when the sun goes down

Oh I know it’s going to be alright

Cause I know I’m going to get a chance to hold you again in my arms tonight

You see I don’t worry no more

Oh honey I got your love

There’s nothing she can do to ever, ever break us up

Chorus (repeat)

Good music - enjoy!

Little Milton - "Room 244"

I was fortunate to have had the opportunity to see Little Milton in concert the year before he passed.  I am so thankful that I got to see him perform and what a show!  He was a crowd pleaser and sang many of his greatest hits.  Here's one of his songs from back in the day. In "Room 244," he leaves his wife at home and meets his girlfriend at the same hotel that they always go to; they always stay in the same hotel room.  He admits that they never meant for their love to grow so strong but they're in so deep and they just can't leave each other alone.  Sounds like someone in this love triangle is going to get hurt!

I’m sorry darling that I’m a little bit late

But you see it wasn’t easy for me this time

For me to just slip away

She wanted a little of my time

And that’s why I had to stay

When you’re out here stealing love like we are

That’s the price you sometimes pay

So here’s the key, you know the floor

It’s the same old room we’ve used many times before

Put the "Do Not Disturb" sign on the door

We’re gonna make sweet, sweet love baby

In room 244, room 244

Now we never really meant for our love to grow strong, oh no

But we’re in so deep now baby

Oh we just can’t leave each other alone

So make yourself comfortable baby

While I let the desk clerk know

No, we don’t want to be disturbed

And we sure don’t want to hear no telephone

So let me hold you in my arms

Like I never held you before

We’re gonna make love slow and easy honey

Oh baby, in room 244, oh baby, room 244

I wish we had more time

Cause your love really blows my mind

And oh I wish that I was free

To plan a future for you and me

Now I know this might be wrong

But girl I just can’t leave your love alone

As sure as there are stars above

You know we can’t deny our love

So let me hold you in my arms

Like I never, never held you before

We’re gonna make love slow and easy honey

Oh baby, in room 244, oh girl, room 244

Here we are baby, in room 244, it’s the same, same old place

That we’ve been so many times before…

Enjoy!
