THE MANHATTAN TRANSFER lyrics : "You Can Depend On Me"

(Earl Hines, Charles Carpenter & Louis Dunlap)
Though you say we're through I'll always love you
You know you can depend on me

If you need a friend, I'm yours until the end
You know you can count on me
I wish you success and loads of happiness

But I must confess
I'll be lonely, I'll be lonely, I'll be lonely
If someone you've met has made you forget

You know you can count on me

[Sax solo]


[Tim's solo:]
Hey dig it, baby you got all me

Oh anytime you're feelin low n' love's got you moanin' low
You're sittin' with your bottle lookin' out the window
Pretty baby listen to me

I wanna tell you how I feel about you baby
How you got a way of sendin' me a reelin' from the top a' to the
bottom

If I gotta naggy hokey way of feelin' poke me, poke me once
again
We could do right, cookin' up a little rhythm

Move it jus' right and I'll show ya what you missed
Give it up, give it up, give up your love to me
An' I'll motivate, n' motivate n' motivate, n' motivate an'

motivate
Along an' drive your blues away


[Janis' solo:]
Oh pretty baby I can dig what you been sayin'
What you been puttin' down makes my heart go aroun'

It's sweet music to my ear
But my dear I feel my heart's been broken all the time,
I just can't stop from thinkin _bout the past, hurt from the

last,
It can hurt you for a long long time
But you sweet talkin' man, you move me with your jive

Lord you make me feel like I'm alive again,
The moment that I look into your eyes so brown
Sweetheart I can't believe that the love bug's bit me

But I believe it, get I believe it, get I believe it,
It's really really 2 true love!


Baby am I talkin to ya, don't you know I'm really gonna be true
t' ya
[Scat singing]

Take me now, you don't know I can't resist when you're
talkin'
Ooo wee ooo wee ooo ooo wee ooo wee I'm as crazy as a monkey in

a tree
[Scat singing]
Shashay down where we can be alone when the timin' and the mood

is right
Baby divine,I'm feelin so fine a little lovin' hasn't come along
in a long long time

Its love so fine, it's divine, (scat vocals) one more time!

[Sax solo]


Baby divine,I'm feelin so fine a little lovin' hasn't come along
in a long long time

So divine, love so fine, (Scat vocals) one more time!!
