20/20 VISION

Tattoo - 1974



People talk about her like she was a diamond on the shelf.

People talk about her like she was a diamond on the shelf.

Well, I got 20/20 vision, I can see that for myself.

I got a high steppin' baby, you know she's really about as good as gold.

I got a high steppin' baby, you know she's really good as gold.

She can make my Grandpa, feel like he's six years old.



I got 20/20 vision, and that's all I need.

Enough to keep my baby here by me.



Oooh...whooo...



You know my little baby, she buzz around like a bumble bee.

Well, you know my little baby, she buzz like a bumble bee.

And I won't complain if she comes around here and stings me.

Sting me!



I got 20/20 vision, and that's all I need.

Enough to keep my baby good company.



Yeah...oooh...whooo...



You know my little baby, I'd recognize her anywhere.

If I seen her in a crowd, I'd recognize her anywhere.

She can even make my Grandpa, get up out of his wheelchair.



All the boys hang around her, she says she don't love no one else.

All the boys hang around, she says she don't love no one else.

Well, I got 20/20 vision, I can see that for myself.

I got 20/20 vision, I can see that for myself.



Take me home...

DO YOU READ ME

Calling Card - 1976



Do you read me, well won't you tell me?

If you read me, then please believe me, when I say,

Yes I've been waiting, seems like forever.

I've been waiting, my situation ain't got much better,

Well I've been waiting, the situation don't get much better.



You don't do unto others as you do unto me,

Well, why am I the only one that treats you this way?

Well, you got that something and it's hard to specify,

I can't diagnose that look in your eyes.



You don't do unto me, like I know you could,

Why am I the only one who's misunderstood?

Ashes to ashes, and it's dust to dust,

Well, if you won't take me then I guess the devil must.



I've been hurting, my hearts been burning,

I've been hurting, but I've been learning, just the same.



Well, I've been waiting, seems like forever,

While I've been waiting,

My situation ain't got much better,

While I've been waiting,

The situation ain't got much better,

I've been waiting,

The situation don't get much better.
