ABC (2:55)
by The Jackson 5 (1979)
You went to school to learn girl
Things you never, never knew before
Like "I" before "E" except after "C"
And why 2 plus 2 makes 4
Now, now, now
I'm gonna teach you
Teach you, teach you
All about love girl
All about love
Sit yourself down, take a seat
All you gotta do is repeat after me
A B C
It's easy as, 1 2 3
As simple as, do re mi
A B C, 1 2 3
Baby, you and me girl
A B C
It's easy as, 1 2 3
As simple as, do re mi
A B C, 1 2 3
Baby, you and me girl
Come on and love me just a little bit
Come on and love me just a little bit
I'm gonna teach you how to sing it out
Come on, come on, come on
Let me tell you what it's all about
Reading, writing, arithmatic
Are the branches of the learning tree
But without the roots of love everyday girl
Your education ain't complete
Tea-Tea-Teacher's gonna show you
(She's gonna show you)
How to get an "A" (na-na-na-naaaaaa)
How to spell "me", "you", add the two
Listen to me, baby
That's all you got to do
Oh, A B C
It's easy as, 1 2 3
As simple as, do re mi
A B C, 1 2 3
Baby, you and me girl
A B C it's easy,
It's like counting up to 3
Sing a simple melody
That's how easy love can be
That's how easy love can be
Sing a simple melody
1 2 3 baby
You and me
Sit down girl,
I think I love ya'
No, get up girl
Show me what you can do
Shake it, shake it baby, come on now
Shake it, shake it baby, oooh, oooh
Shake it, shake it baby, yeah

It's like counting up to 3
Sing a simple melody

How to sing it out
Come-a, come-a, come-a
Let me show you what's it's all about
A B C it's easy

Sing a simple melody

I Was Made To Love Her (3:22)
by The Jackson 5 (1979)
I was born in Lil' Rock,
Had a childhood sweetheart,
We were always hand in hand.
I was hightop shoes and shirt tails,
Suzy was in pig tails,
I know I loved her even then.
You know my papa disapproved it,
My mama boohooed it,
But I told them time and time again,
"Don't you know I was made to love her,
Built a world all around her"
Yah! Hey, hey, hey.
She's been my inspiration,
Showed appreciation
For the love I gave her through the years.
Like a sweet magnolia tree
My love blossmed tenderly,
My life grew sweeter through the years.
I know that my baby loves me,
My baby needs me,
That's why we made it through the years.
I was made to love her,
Worship and adore her,
Hey, hey, hey.
All through thick and thin
Our love just won't end,
'Cause I love my baby, love my baby. Ah!
My baby loves me,
My baby needs me,
And I know I ain't going nowhere.
I was knee high to a chicken
When that love bug bit me,
I had the fever with each passing year.
Oh, even if the mountain tumbles,
If this whole world crumbles,
By her side I'll still be standing there.
'Cause I was made to love her,
I was made to live for her, yeah!
Ah, I was made to love her,
Built my world all around her,
Hey, hey, hey.
Oo baby, I was made to please her,
You know Stevie ain't gonna leave her, no,
Hey, hey, hey.
Oo wee baby, my baby loves me,
My baby needs me,
Hey, hey, hey.
Oo my baby loves me....
Never Can Say Goodbye (2:57)
by The Jackson 5 (1979)
Never can say goodbye
No, no, no, no... I
I never can say goodbye
Even tho' the pain and heartache seem to follow me wherever I go
Tho' I tried and tried to hide my feelings then always seem to show
Then you try to say you're leaving me and I always have to say no
Tell me why is it so?
But I never can say goodbye
No, no, no, no
I never can say goodbye
Ev'ry time I think I've had enough and start heading for the door
There's very strange vibrations, piercing me right to the core
It says turn around you fool you know you love her more and more
Tell me why is it so?
Don't wanna let you go
I never can say goodbye girl
(never can say goodbye, girl)
Ohh, ohh, baby,
(don't wanna let you go, girl)
I never can say goodbye,
No, no, no, no, no, no
Ohh, I never can say goodbye girl
(never can say goodbye, girl)
Ohh, ohh, ohh,
(don't wanna let you go, baby)
I never can say goodbye,
No, no, no, no, no, no,
Ohh
Never can say goodbye
No, no, no, no
I never can say goodbye
I keep thinkin' that our problems soon are all gonna work out
But there's that same unhappy feelin' there's that anguish, there's that doubt
It's that same old dizzy hang-up can't do with you or without
Tell me why is it so?
Don't wanna let you go
I never can say goodbye girl
(never can say goodbye, girl)
Ohh, ohh, baby,
(baby)
I never can say goodbye
No, no, no, no, no, no
Ohh, I never can say goodbye girl
(never can say goodbye, girl)
Ohh, ohh, ohh,
(baby)
I never can say goodbye,
No, no, no, no, no, no,
Ohh

Oh Oh I've been blessed

with a smile that's true come forth for you
I used to walk down a crowded street
with a broken heart and love I'll repeat
Just wasted years Just tasting tears

And that heavy load that i used to bear

oh I've been blessed
from the day we met til I marry ya
oh ive been blessed
with a sunny sky
and a girl thats mine
Just like a bird with a broken wing
into your arms I gladly came
you smiled at me and I fell in love
in a minute I was torn apart
and a sound was heard that shook the earth

Penny Arcade (2:41)
by The Jackson 5 (1979)
Girl you got me dizzy
You put me on a merry-go-round
While my heart was spinning
You 're somewhere else messing around
When we're together
I think that I 'm your only prize
You change like the weather
A little heartbreaker in disguise
Riding on a ferris-wheel
Is the way I wanna feel
But I 'm standing in a line
And I can 't get a ticket to ride
Pretty little penny
You 're spending all the love I make
'til there isn 't any
You play your games
Penny arcade
Hey girl come on down
Get your feet back off the ground
Together baby we can ride
Come on honey don 't hide
Pretty little penny
You 're spending all the love I make
'til there isn 't any
You play your games
Penny arcade
Girl you make believing
You tell me candy covered lies
I 'm the one you needing
Forget about the other guys
I know how you got this name baby
You were playing fun and games
Playing fun and games
I was busy as a bee (busy busy)
Honey take care of your business with me
If you keep lying (better slow down a baby)
You 'll wake up crying
Pretty, pretty little baby
You 're spending all the love I make
'til there isn 't any
You play your games (penny arcade)
You play your games (penny arcade)
You play your games (penny arcade)

Buh buh buh buh
Buh buh buh buh
I love you.
[Jermaine:] Whoah, little girl
[Michael:] Whoah, little girl

The silly things I say and do
Are all designed to get attention from you
Just because I love you.

Hey, girl, would you believe
He's slowly going out of his head.
[Jermaine:]
And it's just because, just because I love you.
Ah, if you were mine I'd promise you
I'd do all I can to make your dreams come true
Just because I love you.
