Am I Wasting My Time On You?
Composer(s): Howard Johnson - Irving Bibo
Performer(s): Lewis James 
and multiple other artists



Am I wasting my time
By thinking you're mine
And dreaming the way that I do

Am I wasting the tears
I cried all these years
Just wondering if your love is true

Will I lose in the end
And just be a friend
Please tell me it's time that I knew

Will my heart have to pay
Will you send me away
Am I wasting my time on you

Will it all be in vain
Am I wasting my time on you

Women Will Rule The World
Composer(s): Raymond Quevedo
Performer(s): Ry Cooder



How different the ladies of long ago 
to the modern women that we all know
If you observe you are bound to see 
that sex has changed entirely
A long ago their one ambition in life 
was to be a mother and a wife
Now they go out imitating the males 
by smoking cigarettes and drinking cocktails
Girls used to like to be school teachers 
gradually becoming stenographers
We next hear of them as lecturers, authors and engineers
There is no limit to their ambition 
they've even gone in for aviation
And if you men don't assert control 
your women will rule the world
Play a bridge!
Now they say anything that your man can do 
they also can achieve too
And they've openly boasted to do their part 
in the literature and art
We will next hear of them as candidates 
for the president of these United States
And if you men don't assert control 
your women will rule the world
Now you hear on the radio and TV 
of a great national calamity
Story of tragic proportion coming 
from the White House in Washington
The facts in the case are clearly stated 
the president is being cruely dominated
By a international conspiracy 
that threatens world peace and security

Am I Too Late? 
Composer(s): Jim Hurt - Larry Keith
Performer(s): Kenny Rogers; Gladys Knight



I don't understand your hesitation
You always were so quick to say 
What needed to be said
But you're standing there
just saying nothing
Please say something
just don't tell me I'm too late

It took a while for me 
to understand my feelings for you
I hope it's not too late
to say I love you
'cause god knows I do

Before you turn away 
and the chance I had to love you is gone
You got to know
I've finally found the feeling

And though I never told you
I live my life to hold you

Am I too late
to show myself
is it too late to let you know

Do you feel me
Am I touching you
Scares me to think you might say no
'Cause it's too late for me to let you go

You got to know
I've finally found the feeling
And though I never told you
I live my live to hold you

Am I too late to show myself
Is it too late to let you know
Do you feel me
Am I touching you
It scares me to think you might say no
'Cause it's too late
For me
to let you go

Am I too late
To show myself
Am I too late
to let you know
do you feel me
Am I touching you
Scares me to think that you might say no
Am I too late 
To show myself
Am I too late
To let you know
Do you feel me
Am I touching you
Scares me to think that you might say no

Women Do Funny Things To Me
Composer(s): Larry Kingston
Performer(s): Del Reeves



Doo do do do doo a doo do do do doo

On a bareback camel I rode across Egypt
Without water in the blistered sun
And in Spain I stood calmly without even a cape
And for the bull he was too tired to run
Bound and tied a gagged and nailed in a barrel I went over Niagara oh yes
But baby last night when you said you loved I turned into a quivering mess

'Cause women do funny things to me women do funny things to me
I'm usually perfectly calm and colective and curious as I can be
But ruby lips swingin' hips bitter minds tender sighs
Pretty curles and flirty girls I see they do funny things to me

Without a guide or a gun I went a huntin'
Killed a tiger with my two bare hands
Without a rope and barefooted I climbed Mount Everest
And didn't even get a blister on my hand
Through the Okefenokee I waded pass the gators
And the snakes and skeeters and flies
But baby last night when we started kissin'
I said Lord I can't stand it I'm gonna die

'Cause women do funny things to me...

Without a dog or a sled I walked across the Yukon
It was spring but it was forty below
And when they began to plan for the moon
Guess who volunteered to go
Yes I'm always ready to show my courage and my extreme bravery
But baby last night when you talked marriage you scared the living outta me

Oh women do funny things to me...
Funny things to me doo do do do doo funny things to me

Am I The Same Girl

Covered by multiple other artists



Why don't you stop
And look me over?
Am I the same girl
You used to know?
Why don't you stop
And think it over?
Am I the same girl
Whom you hurt so?

I'm the one you want
And I'm the one you need
I'm the one you love
The one you used to meet
Around the corner everyday
We would meet and slip away
But we were much too young
To love each other this way

Am I the same girl?
Yes I am, yes I am
Am I the same girl?
Yes I am, yes I am

Why don't you stop 
And look me over?
Am I the same girl
You used to know?
Why don't you stop 
And think it over?
Am I the same girl
Whom you hurt so?

I'm the one you hurt
And I'm the one you need
I'm the one who cried
The one you used to need
But you are pretending you don't care
But the fire, ahh, is still there
But we are no longer too young
To love each other this way

Am I the same girl?
Yes I am, yes I am
Am I the same girl?
Yes I am, yes I am
Oh, yes I am

Am I the same girl?
(Yes I am, yes I am)
Am I the same girl?, yeah
(Yes I am, yes I am)
Oh, yes I am
Am I the same girl?
(Yes I am, yes I am)
Oh, baby, yes I am

Women Be Wise
Composer(s): Sippie Wallace; John Beach
Performer(s): Bonnie Raitt;
and various other artists



Women be wise, keep your mouth shut, don't advertise your man
Don't sit around gossiping, explaining what your good man really can do
Some women nowadays, Lord they ain't no good
They will laugh in your face 
Then try to steal your man from you
Women be wise, keep your mouth shut, don't advertise your man

Your best girlfriend, she might be a highbrow, she changes clothes 3 times a day
What do you think she's doing now, while you're so far away
She's loving your man in your own damn bed
You better call for the doctor, mama, try to investigate your head
Women be wise, keep your mouth shut, don't advertise your man

Women be wise, keep your mouth shut, don't advertise your man
Don't sit around, girl, telling all your secrets,
telling all those good things he really can do
If you talk about your baby, you tell me he's so fine
Lord honey, I just might sneek up and try to make him mine
Women be wise, keep your mouth shut, don't advertise your man

Don't be no fool, don't advertise your man (baby don't do it)

First release by: Carl Belew - 1959
Covered by multiple other artists



They say you've found somebody new
But that won't stop me loving you
I just can't let you walk away
Forget the love I had for you

Guess I could find somebody, too
But I don't want no one but you
How could you leave without regret
Am I that easy to forget

Before you leave be sure you find
You want his love much more than mine
'Cause I'll just say we've never met
If I'm that easy to forget

Before you leave be sure you find
You want his love much more than mine
'Cause I'll just say we've never met
If I'm that easy to forget

If I'm that easy to forget

Women Around The World At Work
Composer(s): Mark Gane
Performer(s): Martha & The Muffins



In a hundred wars across the earth
Men and guns are thought to prove their worth
Women stay behind and grow the food
Placing soldiers in a dangerous mood

Women around the world at work
Working, working...

There's a man who must be sixty-five
Makes his living running other lives
Tells them when they can't and when they can
They're so busy they don't give a damn

Women around the world at work...
Working, working...

In The Daily X, May '81
Back-page human interest story runs
"Girls of twelve still sold for love today"
Just so men can have their bloody way

Women around the world at work...

Woman's Got Soul
Composer(s): Curtis Mayfield
Original Performers: The Impressions
Covered by various other artists



She may not be the best lookin' woman
I ever did see
Nor have the charms of the ladies
Of high society
But the woman's got soul
Worth all money and gold
And all the love that I have belongs
To the woman with soul
Now I'm just a regular fellow
I don't need much
I don't need a Cadillac car
Or diamonds and such
But the woman that I hold
She's got to have soul
And then I'm richer than the richest gold
If the woman's got soul
Well, I don't need a woman
That's got a whole lotta class
Because class in a woman
Don't mean she's gonna last
I need the kind of woman
That when I hold she fits so tight, yeah
Oh, and when she throws it on me
I give in without a fight Then I know
The woman's got soul
Worth all money and gold
And then I'm richer than the richest gold
If the woman's got soul
If the woman's got soul

Am I Losin'
Composer(s): Allen Collins - Ronnie Van Zant
Performer(s): Lynyrd Skynyrd



I recall when I used to come home never had a dime
But Lord I always had a good time
And I recall drinkin' wine with one of my friends
Lord, I can't go back again

Am I losin' my own way back home
Am I losin' a good friend that I've known
Am I losin' won't you tell me how I've sinned
Why am I losin one of my best friends

And I recall this friend of mine I knew so well
It goes to show Lord you just can't tell
Now my friend won't talk to me Let me tell you why
he thinks I 've changed because of a dollar sign

Am I losin' my own way back home
Am I losin' a good friend that I've known
Am I losin' won't you tell me how I've sinned
Why am I losin one of my best friends

And its so strange when you get just a little money
Your so called friends want to act just a little funny
They'll blame you

But I'm not the one that's here to blame
Its you my friend that's really changed
Its a shame, such a shame
Am I losin' once again

Why these things happen, Lord I don't understand
But Lord it can sure hurt a man
Why my friend won't take me as I am
'Cause your friend Lord is the most important thing

Am I losin' my own way back home
Am I losin' a good friend that I've known
Am I losin' won't you tell me how I've sinned
Why am I losin one of my best friends

Woman Woman

Original Performer: Jimmy Payne
Covered by various other artists



Woman oh woman 
Have you got cheating on your mind, on your mind
Something's wrong between us 
That your laugher cannot hide
And you're afraid to let your eyes meet mine
And lately when I love you, I know you're not satisfied
Woman oh woman 
Have you got cheating on your mind, on your mind 
I've seen the way men look at you 
When they think I don't see 
And it hurts to have them think that you're that kind
But it's knowing that you're looking back 
That's really killing me
Woman oh woman 
Have you got cheating on your mind, on your mind
A woman wears a certain look 
When she is on the move
And a man can always tell what's on her mind
I hate to have to say it 
But that look's all over you
Woman oh woman 
Have you got cheating on your mind
Oh woman oh woman 
Have you got cheating on your mind.....

Am I Going Insane
Composer(s): Geezer Butler - Tony Iommi - Ozzy Osbourne - Bill Ward
Performer(s): Black Sabbath



Everybody’s looking at me, feeling paranoid inside
When I step outside I feel free, think I’ll find a place to hide
Tell me people, am I going insane?
Tell me people, am I going insane?

Every day I sit and wonder how my life it used to be
Now I feel like going under, now my life is hard to see
So tell me people, am I going insane?
Tell me people, am I going insane?

So I’m telling all you people, listen while I sing again
If I don’t sound very cheerful, I think that I’m a schizophren
So tell me people, am I going insane?
Tell me people, am I going insane?

Woman, sensuous woman
You control the world I’m living in
Woman, sensuous woman
Release my body and let me live again

Step by step you taught me easy lovin’
Night by night you caught me in your web
My self control was overruled by passion
Now I couldn’t see the heartache up ahead

Woman, sensuous woman
You control the world I’m living in
Woman, sensuous woman
Release my body and let me live again

Someone true is waiting I should be with her
And she don’t know I crave your ecstasy
But many hearts will break if I don’t conquer
This lustful spell you’ve cast over me

Am I Blue?
Composer(s): Harry Akst - Grant Clarke
First release by: Ethel Waters & Her Ebony 4 - 1929
Covered by multiple other artists



I'm just a woman, a lonely woman
Waiting on the weary shore
I'm just a woman who's only human
One you should feel sorry for

It was a morning, long before dawn
Without a warning I found he was gone
How could he do it, why should he do it
He never done it before

Am I blue, am I blue
Ain't these tears in these eyes telling you
How can you ask me am I blue
Why, wouldn't you be too
If each plan with your man
Done fell through

There was a time
When I was his only one
But now I'm the sad and lonely one ... lonely
Was I gay, until today
Now he's gone, and we're through
Am I blue

Woman Without Love
Composer(s): Jerry Donald Chestnut
Performer(s): Johnny Darrell;
and various other artists



Her eyes tell the story so well
She tries hard to hide
So little expected, too often neglected
A woman stripped of her pride

Always so careful not to cry
Until I fall asleep
And there in the silence
She lies with a tear on her cheek

The thought comes to mind that I read sometime
Or heard it, I can't quite recall
That a man without love's only half of a man
But a woman is nothing at all

She knows I don't love her
Although, heaven knows how I've tried
Her reason for living, to go right on giving
Is the one thing that she's been denied

Without any warning
In the wee hours of the morning she cries
The hurt deep inside she tries so to hide
Is beginning to show in her eyes

Then a thought comes to mind that I read sometime
Or heard it, I can't quite recall
That a man without love's only half of a man
But a woman is nothing at all

Yeah, a man without love's only half of a man
But a woman is nothing at all

Am I Asking Too Much
Composer(s): Richards - R. Dean Taylor
Performer(s): Diana Ross & The Supremes



Through a shadowed world
I drift in emptiness and doubt
Because I push aside the love
I just can't live without

Please won't you give my crying eye
Just one more chance to see
That look upon your face
That promised love to me

Am I asking too much
Or is this love we had
Lost beyond recall
Am I asking too much
Can we start again and rise above it all

Kiss my ears with gentle words I need to hear
(Baby I love you)
Let your arms reach out and
Tell me that you need me dear
(Baby I need you)
'Cause if you need me darling
Baby, you'll forgive
(Forgive me dear)
You'll forgive me says the breath of air
I need to live

Am I asking too much
Even though I hurt you so
Don't say we're through
Am I asking too much
Won't you let me try
And make it up to you

All the precious hours we've wasted
All the bitter tears we've tasted
I need your love inside of me
Make me the girl I used to be

In your heart is there no longer room for me to live
When all I did was take, all you did was give
All the tears I made you cry
Turned your heart to stone
Has loneliness made up your mind
To live alone

Am I asking too much
Or is this love we had
Lost beyond recall
Am I asking too much
Can we start again and rise above it all

Am I asking too much
Won't you let me try
And make it up to you
Am I asking too much
Even though I hurt you so
Don't say were through

Am I asking too much
Or is this love we had
Lost beyond recall

Woman To Woman
Composer(s): Homer Banks; Eddie Marion; Henderson Thigpen
Performer(s): Shirley Brown



Hello
May I speak to Barbara
Barbara, this is Shirley
Now you might not know who I am
But the reason I'm callin' you is because
I was goin' through my old man's pockets this morning
And I just happened to find your name and number
So woman to woman
I don't think it's bein' any more than fair than to call you
And let you know where I'm comin' from
Now Barbara, I don't know how you're gonna take this
But whether you be cool or come out of a bag on me
You see, it really doesn't make any difference
But it's only fair that I let you know
That the man you're in love with, he's mine
From the top of his head to the bottom of his feet
The bed he sleeps in, and every piece of food he eats
You see, I make it possible
The clothes on his back, ha-ha, I bought him
The car he drives, I pay the note every month
So I'm tellin' you these things to let you know how much I love that man
And woman to woman I think you'll understand just how much I'll do to keep him

Woman to woman
If you've ever been in love
Then you'd know
How I feel

And woman to woman
Now if you were in my shoes
Wouldn't you have done
The same thing too

Whoa, woman to woman
Can't you see where I'm comin' from
And woman to woman
Ain't that the same thing you would have done

Woman to woman
Now should I just step aside
And let her take
What's rightfully mine

Whoa, woman to woman
Was I right or was I wrong
And I ain't gon' let you
Break up my happy home

Now woman to woman
Now you see I don't want no trouble now
I hope you understand
I love that man and he's mine

I'm talkin' to you woman to woman
You should be woman enough to understand
That man
I love that man

Woman, woman, woman to woman
He's mine
And I ain't gon' give him up
No, baby, and I ain't lyin'

The best of my years went into that man

Am I A Toy Or A Treasure
Composer(s): Arthur Altman - Singer - Taylor
Performer(s): Kay Starr



Am I a toy
Or a treasure?
Which of the two
Am I to you?

Am I a puppet
That you dangle on a string?
Or is your love for me
A rare and precious thing?

Oh, will I be yours
To cherish forever
Or thrown away
One thoughtless day?

Am I to be
A here to stay thing
Or just another play thing?
Am I a toy
Or a treasure to you?

Am I a toy
Or a treasure?
Which of the two
Am I to you?

Am I a puppet
That you dangle on a string?
Or is your love for me
A rare and precious thing?

Oh, will I be yours
To cherish forever
Or thrown away
One thoughtless day?

Am I to be
A here to stay thing
Or will I be another play thing?
Am I a toy
Or a treasure to you?

Am I a toy
Or a treasure to you?

Composer(s): Sharon Rose Higgins
Performer(s): Loretta Lynn



You came from the city streets to my little country town
Your spell is on my baby and you've got me sorrow bound
You don't really love him you're playin' around for fun
Woman of the world leave my world alone

You're the devil's woman that's what my man don't know
Why I wear more in swimmin'
than you wear to parties where you go
There's a place I know where you should go
for that's where you belong
Woman of the world leave my world alone

I don't know about the things the bright lights talk to you
My country boy don't know them any better than I do
I'll have to watch him hurtin' after you are gone
Woman of the world leave my world alone

You're the devil's woman that's what my man don't know
Why I wear more in swimmin' than you wear to parties where you go
There's a place I know where you should go for that's where you belong
Woman of the world leave my world alone
