Sellout... I'm not crazy about the word. We're all entrepreneurs. To me, I don't care if you own a furniture store or whatever - the best sign you can put up is SOLD OUT.
Value the people who value YOU.
If you start sweet, then you've got somewhere to go.
I write and sing about whatever I am able to understand and feel.
I would like to know how it feels for my desperation to get louder.
Ain'tno sunshine when she's gone. It's not warm when she's away. Ain'tno sunshine when she's gone, and she's always gone too long, anytime she goes away.
Sometimes in our lives we all have pain. We all have sorrow. But if we are wise we know that there's always tomorrow.
Just keep on using me, until you use me up.
If nobody throws all their rules at you, you might make a song with no introduction.
If there is a load you have to bear that you can't carry, I'm right up the road. I'll share your load if you just call me.
Lean on me, when you're not strong and I'll be your friend, I'll help you carry on.
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone, only darkness every day.
We aren't getting what we should from law enforcement.
When I look at you And the world's all right with me Just one look at you And I know it's gonna be A lovely day.
