#28 I Want You Back (The Jackson 5) 👍🏼

Lyrics:
Uh-huh, huh, huh
Just let me tell you now
Uh-huh🪄
When I had you to myself, I didn’t want you around
Those pretty faces always made you stand out in a crowd
But someone picked you from the bunch, one glance was all it took
Now it’s much too late for me to take a second look🪄
Oh, baby, give me one more chance (to show you that I love you)
Won’t you please let me back in your heart
Oh, darlin’, I was blind to let you go (let you go, baby)
But now since I see you in his arms (I want you back)
Yes, I do now (I want you back)
Ooh, ooh, baby (I want you back)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah (I want you back)
Na, na, na, na🪄
Trying to live without your love is one long sleepless night
Let me show you, girl, that I know wrong from right
Every street you walk on, I leave tear stains on the ground
Following the girl I didn’t even want around
Let me tell you now🪄
Oh, baby, all I need is one more chance (to show you that I love you)
Won’t you please let me back in your heart
Oh, darlin’, I was blind to let you go (let you go, baby)
But now since I see you in his arms, uh-huh🪄
Ah, buh bum, bum, bum
Ah, buh bum, bum, bum
All I want
Ah, buh bum, bum, bum
All I need
Ah, buh bum, bum, bum
All I want
Ah, buh bum, bum, bum
All I need🪄
Oh, just one more chance to show that I love you
Baby (baby)
Baby (baby)
Baby (baby)🪄
Forget what happened then (I want you back)
Let me live again🪄
Oh, baby, I was blind to let you go
But now since I see you in his arms
(I want you back)🪄
Spare me of this cause
Get back what I lost🪄
Oh, baby, I need one more chance, ha
I tell ya that I love you
Baby (oh), baby (oh), baby (oh)
I want you back, ha
I want you back

#15 ABC (Jackson 5) 👍🏼

Lyrics:
You went to school to learn girl
things you never knew before
like “I” before “E” except after “C”
and why 2 plus 2 makes 4
now, now, now
I’m gonna teach you, teach you, teach you
all about love girl, all about love
sit yourself down, take a seat
all you gotta do is repeat after me🪄
A B C, It’s easy as
1 2 3, as simple as
do re mi, A B C, 1 2 3
baby you and me girl🪄
Come on and love me just a little bit
I’m gonna teach you how to sing it out
come on, come on, come on
let me tell you what it’s all about
reading, writing, arithmatic
are the branches of the learning tree
but without the roots of love everyday girl
your education ain’t complete
teacher’s gonna show you (she’s gonna show you)
how to get an “A” (na, na, na, na, na, na)
how to spell “me”, “you”, add the two
listen to me baby thats all you got to do🪄
Oh,🪄
A B C, It’s easy as
1 2 3, as simple as
do re mi, A B C, 1 2 3
baby you and me girl
A B C it’s easy, it’s like counting up to 3
singing simple melodies
that’s how easy love can be
singing simple melodies
1 2 3 baby you and me🪄
Sit down girl, I think I love ya’
No, get up girl, show me what you can do
Shake it, shake it baby, come on now
Shake it, shake it baby, oooh, oooh

singing simple melodies

#7 I’ll Be There (Jackson 5) 👍🏼

Lyrics:
You and I must make a pact
We must bring salvation back
Where there is love, I’ll be there (I’ll be there)🪄
I’ll reach out my hand to you
I’ll have faith in all you do
Just call my name and I’ll be there (I’ll be there)🪄
And oh, I’ll be there to comfort you
Build my world of dreams around you
I’m so glad that I found you
I’ll be there with a love that’s strong
I’ll be your strength
I’ll keep holdin’ on (holdin’ on)
Yes I will, yes I will🪄
Let me fill your heart with joy and laughter
Togetherness, girl, is all I’m after
Whenever you need me, I’ll be there (I’ll be there)
I’ll be there to protect you (yeah baby)
With unselfish love that respects you
Just call my name and I’ll be there (I’ll be there)🪄
And oh, I’ll be there to comfort you
Build my world of dreams around you
I’m so glad that I found you
I’ll be there with a love that’s strong
I’ll be your strength
I’ll keep holdin’ on
Ooh ooh ooh
Yes I will (holdin’ on, holdin’ on)
Yes I will🪄
If you should ever find someone new
I know he better be good to you
‘Cause if he doesn’t
I’ll be there (I’ll be there)🪄
Don’t you know, baby, yeah, yeah
I’ll be there, I’ll be there
Just call my name, I’ll be there (I’ll be there)
Just look over your shoulders honey, ooh
I’ll be there, I’ll be there
Whenever you need me, I’ll be there (I’ll be there)🪄
Don’t you know, baby
I’ll be there, I’ll be there
Just call my name, I’ll be there (I’ll be there)
Oh, oh, oh, oh, I’ll be there
