gregory isaacs' lyrics

Post by norb »

I'm searching for precise lyrics of two Gregory Isaacs' songs : "Black Liberation Struggle" on Soon Forward, and "The Winner" on Mr Isaacs.
Somebody can help please ?

Dont really know the lyrics but Im also a big time Issacs fan since the early 80's. I will do some research and see what I can do. My favorite abouts are More Gregory, Lonely Days and Soon Foward.

Soon forward, come turn me on
You told me that you soon forward, come turn me on, now
Turn your lamps down low, now
So we ain't gonna linger no more

In a time like this
I know the feeling is so hard to resist
So turn me on, turn me on, now
So turn me on, turn me on, now

Don't you stay too long
Slow right down, I'm coming on strong
Please don't let me wait
'Cause tonight is the night for our date, yeah
So turn me on, turn me on, now
So turn me on, turn me on, now

Turn your lamps down low, now
So we ain't gonna linger no more
In a time like this
I know the feeling is so hard to resist
So turn me on, turn me on, now
So turn me on, turn me on, now

Thx dreadrecords ! But I was not not looking for Soon Forward lyrics, but for "black liberation struggle" on Soon forward album. You seem to be skilled in this, maybe you could find this one for me please ? And of course, "the winner" too...
Thanx by advance.
