In similar order to Its About Time LP | All songs written by Ruby Velle & The Soulphonics
MY DEAR
VERSE 1
My Dear Listen here
I know its not right to see
fellas losing jobs and people hopeless
And it's getting so hard for me to see
the good, the bad, the ugly
and keep my focus
CHORUS
And I know sometimes, the world can be so harsh
but reach down deep to find
The good in your heart
bring light to dark
All you need to do is see that
That only love can help us overcome everything
VERSE 2
Darling, how good we live
Yet people got no food to eat
Our brothers lying in the street
We are clueless
I know it's easy to turn our heads away
Take refuge in our lives and not make change today
CHORUS
VERSE 3
Sweet child, don't force a smile
if the way things are got you mad
get up do what you can do to lend a helping hand
And it's easy to turn our heads awaY
Think it ain't your problem if solve it in a day
DOUBLE CHORUS
MEDICINE SPOON
VERSE 1
I may never understand
what it takes to live your life
but I have to say I'm sick and tired
of giving you all of mine
CHORUS
It's not like you
to go beg & plead
can't take it no more
always down on your knee
well I got your spoon
and your medicine too
Imma let you have it
little boy blue
VERSE 2
This could be the final blow
definitely the last straw
thought we were a love
unconditional
but I've now conditioned it to go
CHORUS
It's not like you
to go beg & plead
can't take it no more
always down on your knee
well I got your spoon
and your medicine too
Imma let you have it
little boy blue
oh oh little boy blue
BRIDGE
Don't wanna hear you cry no more
Said I'm not picking up your mess little boy
go ahead and get yourself out of my place soon
you know I heard that your mama's house got room
CHORUS
It's not like you
to go beg & plead
can't take it no more
always down on your knee
well I got your spoon
and your medicine too
Imma let you have it
little boy blue
oh oh little boy blue
