Can anyone help?

There are these three tracks that I’ve had on tape for years, but I don’t know any thing about them except for the lyrics…recognise them?

Track 1
“Never give up if you see you can’t make it, keep on trying…cos I know things will be better by and by…there must come a time when you will reap what you sow…and if you do good, better must come I know”

Track 2
“Push me in the corner x3…Yeah it’s alright…when I’m all alone, with no-one of my own they
Push me in the corner, yeah it’s alright”.

Track 3
“Baby please…don’t go x2
Cos I love you so
Every day my love for you grows stronger and my need is getting stronger
Baby don’t go”

They were on 7” recorded maybe in the 70’s and taped through a friend of a friend, if anyone out there can help, you’ll make my day… big time.

Many thanks

Track 2 is "Push me in the Corner" by the Eternals with Cornell Campbell on lead.
You can find the vocal here http://www.roots-archives.com/release/4 ... ight=68903 and a very nice version here http://www.roots-archives.com/release/1 ... ight=20943

Bellyman...

Thankyou so much...these three tunes have been big in my life for so long and to find out anything about them is fantastic.
Being a vinyl junkie to find it on L.P.is a massive bonus...you've made me grin wider than a cheshire cat

I know track one but cant seem to get the title,maybe Delroy Wilson-Better Must Come, #3 might be K.C.WHITE-Baby Dont Go,with the flip side I-Roy.I have them somwhere and will dig em out of the mountain n check em.

Hello Norseman

Track 1 is Delroy Wilson'esque'...but it's not 'better must come'...track 3 is sort of heavy bass with choppy (hammond organ)keyboards.Sweet tunes indeed.
If you can find them and let us know, that would be exellent.
Cheers for you help so far

1st track is indeed Delroy Wilson called "Never Give Up" (Clocktower 7")

Hi Ron

I thought track 1 sounded like Delroy Wilson but was unsure as it could have been some unknown artist (to me) singing in his style.
A real big thankyou.
