How about some Stax SOUL in yo BOWL this morning. This is an excellent soul track from a great even masterful 70's soul album Taylored In Silk. Johnie was one of the greatest subtle yet powerful soul vocalists of the 70's. This is good stuff here.....


"One thing I can say about
The people of the world today
They see you with a good thing
They want to take it away

But I believe in you
You believe in me too, yeah
Even your best friend will come
Around making sly remarks
Trying to put you down
I believe in you
You believe in me too

Listen, honey
People talking
Trying to pull us apart
Sticking pins and needles
In both of our hearts
I love you no matter
Don`t care about
The stormy weather

I heard your mother say
Loving me didn`t make no sense
But when she put me down
You stood up in my defense

I believe in you
Anytime you against
Your own mother
It makes me know
You believe in me, yeah
Here`s another thing

We had our hard times
And almost didn`t make it
We always worked it
Never tried to fake it

But I believe in you
You believe in me too"

Enjoy,
Brother 9/15
