SHARON JONES:100 DAYS AND 3 MORE







1. 100 DAYS


100 days, 100 nights
To know a man's heart
100 days, 100 nights
To know a man's heart
And a little more
Before he knows his own

You know a man
Can play the part
Of a saint
Just so long
For a day comes
When his true, his true self unfolds

He maybe mellow
He maybe kind
Treat you good
All the time

But there's something just beyond what he's told

100 days, 100 nights
To know a man's heart
100 days, 100 nights
To know a man's heart
And a little more
Before he knows his own

Wait a minute
Maybe I need to slow it down just a little
Take my time

I had a man
Tell me things
Made me feel
Just like a queen
And I thought
He was the one
I would hold
Oh yes I did
But one day
I looked around
That old man
Was nowhere to be found
100 days for this heart to unfold

100 days, 100 nights
To know a man's heart
100 days, 100 nights
To know a man's heart
And a little more
Before he knows his own

3. YOU ARE GOING TO GET IT


some love makes you helpless
some love makes you strong
and some makes you do right
and some makes you do wrong

believe me when i tell you
I got the kind of love
thats gonna make you higher baby
than what you're dreaming of

and I'm gonna give it to you
aww baby
(my love)
and I'[m gonna give it to you
aww baby
(my love)
I'm gonna give it you you

Now I'm no professor baby
but I know a few things
Ya see, A rooster needs a sunrise
before he rises up and sings

A fish without no water
is a fish that cannot swim
and if you want a man to be his best friend
you gotta give him, give your love to him

and I'm gonna give it to you
ooh baby
(my love)
I'm gonna give it to you
ooh baby
(my love)
I'm gonna give it to you
ooh baby
(my love)
You're gonna get it

(Interlude)

Some love makes you helpless
some love makes you strong
and some love makes you do right
and some love makes you do wrong


if you want to know what love can do
open up your arms and you won't regret it
I got a mighty kind of love in store
you're gonna get it

i'm gonna give it to you
aww baby
(my love)
i'm gonna give it to you
aww darlin
(my love)
I'm gonna give it to you
aww baby
(my love)
You're gonna get it

4. THIS LAND IS YOUR LAND

This land is your land, this land is my land
From California, well to the New York Island
From the redwood forest, to the gulf stream waters
I tell you, this land was made for you and me

As I went walkin' down the ribbon of a highway
I saw above me oh that endless skyway
Now I saw below me that golden valley
And I said : this land was made for you and me

As I was walking no dare not to stop me
They put up a sign that said
Oh it said : private property
Well on the back side you know it said nothing
So it must be that side was made for you and me

One bright sunny morning well on the shadow of a stepple
Down by the warefell office
I saw my people
You know my day is filled with hunger
I still wonderin'
I was wondering if this land was made for you and me

This land is your land, this land is my land
From Riverside, California to the Staton Island
Well oh down to West of Georgia oh don't forget Philadelphia oh down to Mississippi, oh Houston Texas oh L.A
You know this land is your land, this land is my land
This land is your land...
