Motown Medley II (Live)Marvin Gaye

[Spoken Intro]
Thank you, folks
We'd like to give you just a bit more of the Motown sound
All the way from Detroit, Michigan

I'll Be Doggone

[Verse 1]
Well, I'll be doggone if I wouldn't work all day, baby
And I'll be doggone if I wouldn't bring you my pay, baby
But if I ever caught you running around
Throwing my money all over this town

[Chorus]
Then I wouldn't be doggone
Hey, Hey! I'd be long gone
Oh baby, I wouldn't be doggone
Baby, I'd be long gone

I Can't Help Myself (Sugar Pie, Honey Bunch)

[Verse]
Ah, sugar pie, honey bunch
You know that I love you
I can't help myself
I love you and nobody else

[Outro]
Ah, when I call your name
Girl, it starts a flame
Burning in my heart, tearing it all apart
No matter how I try
Your love I can't deny
Burning, burning, burn me inside
Oh, ah-ah, baby, woo

Uptight (Everything's Alright)

[Chorus]
Baby, everything is all right, it's uptight, out of sight
Baby, everything is all right, it's uptight, clean out of sight

[Verse 1]
I'm a poor man's son, from across the railroad track
The only clothes I had hangin' on my back
But I'm the envy of every single guy
Oh, I'm the apple of my girl's eye

[Bridge]
I can't give her the things that money can buy
But I'll never, never, never make my baby cry

[Outro]
And it's all right 'cause my clothes ain't new
Out of sight because my heart is true
She says, baby, everything is alright, it's uptight, and I know out of sight

Hitch Hike

[Intro]
Wanna do that "Hitch Hike" for you, folks

[Verse 1]
I'm goin' to Chicago; that's the last place my baby strayed
Hitch hike, baby
I'm packin' up my bags, gonna leave this old town right away
I hitch hike, baby
Gonna find that girl if I have to hitch hike all around the world
Yeah yeah

[Verse 2]
Chicago City Limits, that's what the sign on the highway read
Hitch hike, baby
I'm gonna keep movin 'til I get to that street corner 6th and 3rd
And I hitch hike, baby
I'm gonna find that girl now if I have to hitch hike all around the world

[Bridge]
Hitchin' a ride
Hitch hike, baby, alright
Hit the highway, whoa—we're gonna do that "Hitch Hike" for ya

[Instrumental break]

[Verse 3]
St. Louis, baby, my next stop just might be L.A
I say L.A
Oh, no money in my pockets, gonna have to hitch hike all the way
Yes I am
I'm gonna find that girl if I have to hitch hike all around the world, yeah

[Bridge]
Hitchin' a ride
Ooh, hitch hike, baby, it's alright
I got the lowdown that it's alright
Ah, look out
We're hitchin' a ride, 'cause it's alright
Oh, it's alright now now to a hitch a ride
Oh, it's alright--now what'd I say?
Oh, oh baby, it won't be long
Gonna be comin' home to you, darlin'
It won't be long
I need a ride, ride, ride, yeah, and I'll be home
I'm comin' home, yeah, and it won't be long
I, yi, yi, yi, yi, yi, I'm comin' home

[Outro]
Ladies and gentlemen, I wanna tell you a little story right here
But you've got to use your imagination
Now, suppose I were standing out here on a dark, cold freeway
And all the cars were passing me by
And nobody wanted to give me a ride
Now, I'm determined to get to my baby's side
And that's why I'm out here hitchhiking
Trying, trying to get me a ride
Trying, oh trying to get me a ride
I need a ride now, now, now, yeah, oh yeah
But it's so cold out here, I'm freezing
Lord, it's cold, woo
I'm freezing, woo, it's cold out here
And I need a ride, I need a ride
Wait a minute, I think I see a car coming
Hold it! Hey!
Passed me by, oh, yes she did
Can't get no ride
No no no no, can't get no ride
I, I'm cold out here
Wait a minute, I see another car coming
Hey!
Passed me by, oh, can't get no ride
Now what can I do now now now? What can I do?
I need a ride, they keep passing me by
What can I do now now now?
Listen, folks, I better put this microphone down and do some serious hitchhiking out here
I'ma get me a ride, hold it
I have changed my mind
Yep, I changed my mind
You see, I've been doing this hitch hike now for five years, and I ain't got no ride yet
So tonight, instead of doing that hitch hike, I think I'll do the Philly Dog
Haha, I'll do that Philly Dog, baby, maybe I'll get a ride doing that, ah yeah
