# If you look closer It's easy to trace

# The tracks of my tears

-# I need you

-Need you

-# Need you

# Since you left me

# If you see me with another girl

# Seeming like I'm having fun

# Baby

# Everything is all right

# Uptight

# Out of sight

# Baby

# Everything is all right

# Uptight

# Out of sight

# I'm a poor man's son from across the railroad tracks

# The only shirt I own is hangin' on my back

# But I'm the envy of every single guy

# Since I'm the apple of my girl's eye

# When we go out stepping on the town for a while

# My money's low and my suit's out of style

# But it's all right

# If my clothes aren't new

# Out of sight

# Because my heart is true, she says

# Baby

# Everything is all right

# Uptight

# Out of sight

# Baby

# Everything is all right

# Uptight

# Clean out of sight

# She's a pearl of a girl I guess that's what you might say

# I guess her folks brought her up that way

# The right side of the tracks She was born and raised

# In a great big old house Full of butlers and maids

# She said, no-one is better than I

# I know I'm just an average guy

# No football hero or smooth Don Juan

# Got empty pockets You see, I'm a poor man's son

# Can't give her the things that money can buy

# But I'll never, never, never make my baby cry

# And it's all right

# What I can't do

# Out of sight

# Because my heart is true, she says

# Baby

# Everything is all right

# Uptight

# Clean out of sight

# Baby, everything is all right

# Uptight, clean out of sight

# Baby, everything is all right

# Uptight, oh, yeah

# Baby, everything is all right

# Uptight, way out of sight

# Baby, everything is all right... #

# Honey, you do me wrong but still I'm crazy about you

# Stay away too long and I can't do without you

# Every chance you get you seem to hurt me more and more

# But each hurt makes my love

# Stronger than before

# I know flowers grow from rain

# But how can love go through pain?

# Ain't that peculiar

# A peculiarity

# Ain't that peculiar, baby

# Peculiar as can be

# Oh

# You tell me lies that should be obvious to me

# But I'm so much in love with you Baby, till I don't want to see

# That things you do and say

# Are designed to make me blue

# It's a doggone shame my love for you

# Makes all your lies seem true

# But if the truth makes love last longer

# Why do lies make my love stronger?

# Ain't that peculiar, baby

# Peculiar as can be

# Ain't that peculiar

# Peculiarity

# Hey, hey

-# Ah-ah-ah

-Ah-ah-ah

-# Hey, hey

-Hey, hey

-# Ah-ah-ah

-Ah-ah-ah

-# Hey, hey

-Hey, hey

-# Ah-ah-ah

-Ah-ah-ah

-# Ah-ah-ah

-Ah-ah-ah

# Wooo

# I cried so much

# Just like a child that's lost its toy

# Maybe, baby, you think these tears I cry are tears of joy

# A child can cry so much

# Until you do everything they say

# But unlike a child My tears don't help me

# To get my way

# I know love can last through years

# But how can love last through tears?

# Ain't that peculiar, baby

# Peculiarity

# Ain't that peculiar, honey

# Peculiar as can be

# Said I don't understand it, baby

# It's so strange sometimes... #

-WOMAN:

-Here's one of my favourite singers with a song

that was in the Hit Parade in 1966 and is again, this year.

Ladies and gentlemen, Jimmy Ruffin.

Our world's filled with love

It's a wonderful sight

Being in love is everyone's heart's delight

But that look of love isn't on my face, no

That enchanted feeling has been replaced, yeah

# As I walk this land with broken dreams

# I have visions of so many things

# But happiness is just an illusion

# Filled with sadness and confusion

# What becomes of the broken hearted?

# Who had the sweet love that's now departed?

# I know I've got to find

# Some kind of peace of mind

# Maybe

# Oh, yeah, yeah

# The roots of love grow all around

# But for me they come a-tumblin' down

# Every day, heartaches seem to grow a little stronger

# I can't stand this pain much longer, baby

# I walk in shadows

# Searching for light

# Cold and alone

# No comfort in sight

# Hoping and praying and I need someone to care

# Always moving, girl And going nowhere

# What becomes of the broken hearted?

# Who had a sweet love that's now departed?

# I know I've got to find

# Some kind of peace of mind

# Help me, please

# I'm searching Though I don't succeed

# For someone's love That's such a growing need

# All is lost

# There's no place for beginning

# All that's left for me is an unhappy ending, baby

# What becomes of the broken hearted?

# Who had the sweet love that's now departed?

# I know I've got to find

# Some kind of peace of mind

# I'll be searching everywhere

# Just to find someone to care

# I'll be looking every day

# I know I'm gonna find a way

# I need you, baby

# Need you, baby, need you, baby

# Need you right now, baby

# Need you, baby. #

Come on!

# Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. #

# Can't take my eyes off you

# Pardon the way that I stare

# The sight of you leaves me weak

# There are no words left to speak

# But if you feel like I feel

# Let me know that it's real

# Just too good to be true

# Can't take my eyes off you

# I love you, baby

# I think I need a cup of tea

# The world keeps burnin'

# Oh, what a day

# The man that knows something Knows that he knows nothing at all

# Does it seem colder in your summer time and hotter in your fall?

# If we were made in his image then call us by our names

# Most intellects do not believe in God

# But they fear me, they fear me

# Oh, on and on and on and on

# My cipher keeps movin' like a rollin' stone

# I go on and on and on and on

# Cos you did not do your math

# I go on and on and on and on

# My cipher keeps movin' like a rollin' stone

# That's right, on and on and on and on

# On...

# My cipher movin'. #
