[Verse 1]
It's time to face the music
Tonight, I came to use it
You never know
Who you're going to meet in here
I thought I'd never find him
The dark an' handsome kind
I used to dream of
And now you're standing there
Though you're looking good to me
It doesn't mean that you can do as you please
No [4x]

[Chorus]
Oh baby, you're the best thing in my life
(But a one track mind is what you got)
Oh baby, you're my best bet here tonight
(And a one track mind is worth a lot)
I've got no good reason to believe we'll last for long
But that`s good enough for me
Until the right man comes along

[Verse 2]
I've waited for a lover
The kind who`ll stay forever
You look to me
Like the sort of man I need
It's not the best scenario
But now I've found you
I'm not letting you go
Oh [4x]

[Chorus][2x]
Oh baby, you're the best find in my life
(But a one track mind is what you got)
Oh baby, you're my best bet here tonight
(And a one track mind is worth a lot)
For the perfect guy, maybe I should be holding on
And with you I could, until the right man
Until the right man comes along

[Outro]
Until the right man comes along, comes along
(And a one track mind is worth a lot)
Baby, you're the best, say you're the best
You're the best thing in my life
(But a one track mind is what you got)

Tina Turner

Often dubbed the Queen of Rock & Roll, Tina Turner is arguably among the most iconic of female divas in history, with her prolific career and memorable personality as a performer and a public figure. Hailing from a small town in Tennessee, and born Anna Mae Bullock, Turner has cemented herself as one of music’s greatest entertainers.

Turner’s career in music arose from her frequenting of nightclubs near St. Louis, where she would meet her soon-to-be husband Ike Turner, who would also give her the alias “Tina”. With Ike, she would form the famous Ike And Tina Turner Revue. A dynamic, explosive R&B ensemble, the two became the definition of the genre in the late 60s and early 70s, where R&B/Soul had only tiptoed into the realms of the mainstream. A particularly influential act in popularizing the genre, the Revue went on to release some of music’s most memorable and iconic tracks – a cover of Creedence Clearwater Revival’s “Proud Mary”, the Phil Spector-penned “River Deep – Mountain High”, and the electric “Nutbush City Limits”. After a host of drug and abuse problems on Ike’s part, with the male Turner eventually engaging in a violent altercation with his wife, Tina decided to leave her husband for the solo life – and it worked.

As a solo artist, with the help of fellow artists like glam rocker David Bowie, Turner tumbled into mainstream success in the 80s with the only number-one hit of her career – the unconquerable love ballad “What’s Love Got To Do With It” as part of her debut solo album, Private Dancer.
