I'll tell you something, man, I never expected that out of Toronto,
man. You're looking real good, real good — in fact you're all
invited to my house for a drink. I live in San Francisco and if you
can get there man, I'll give you the drink. I promise. I ain't too hard
to find, ha ha ha ha ha ... I'm all over the streets, man. Ha Ha. I'm
not.
A while back, it was about a year ago, I think it was, I had this apartment
in San Francisco, I lived on the third floor in this little tiny apartment
building, had a little two rooms and a dog, right. I lived on the third
floor and I used to walk around town and I had, you know, a couple of
pairs of Levis and a couple T-shirts and I thought I had my shit pretty
good together, man. You know I was out on the streets talking and talking,
doing all that shit, and every time I found a nice piece of talent he
went right straight downstairs to the chick on the second floor, there
was another chick on the second floor, right. And I couldn't understand,
I couldn't understand, I kept thinking, Janis, why are you doing wrong
suddenly ? Well I so decided to get up one morning, ha ha ha, and check
out the chick's action, right, figure out what she had going that I
didn't have going. I got up at 9:30 in the morning, which I want you
to know is an effort on my part. And I got up at 9:30 in the morning,
I hid in the stairwell right next to the chick's across from her apartment,
right. And I watched her and watched to see what she had, man, that
I didn't have. And I'll tell you what she had man, that chick hit the
streets at noon. I mean I didn't use to get up till three. That chick
was already in the street hustling, man. So I figured out what you gotta
do, man. Every time you're looking for a little piece of action and
you ain't getting none, man, you know what you better do, baby, you
better try harder, man.
Try (Just a Little Bit Harder)
Try, try, try just a little bit harder
So I can love, love, love him, I tell myself
'Cause I'm gonna try, oh yeah, just a little bit harder
So I won't lose, lose, lose him to nobody else, yeah.
Hey, I don't care how long it's gonna take ya
But if it's a dream I don't want No I don't really want it
Yeah if it's a dream I don't want nobody to wake me.
Yeah I'm gonna try, oh yeah, just a little bit harder
So I can give, give, give, give him every bit of my soul.
I'm gonna try, oh yeah, just a little bit harder
So I can show, show, show him love with no control, yeah.
Hey! I don't care how long it's gonna take ya
But if it's a dream I don't want
No I don't really want it
Yeah if it's a dream I don't want nobody to wake me.
Hey, dig it! Yeah! Yeah yeah yeah!
Yeah, yeah, yeah, all right.

I'll tell you one thing, we sure turned a trainful of freaks into a
party, man, ha ha ha ha, didn't we, boys ? All right, all right, now
what should I do ? Get it ?
"Get it While You Can" ? "Get it While You Can"
!
All right. I'll do a song, man, that I'll tell you you could apply it
to more or less to anything you want to but it could almost be even
called the truth man. I wouldn't go that far, I wouldn't heavy up on
anyone like that, man. I'll tell you one thing, songs got something
to say, man, if you can dig it. It's talking about everybody's life,
man, and what passes by you and what you miss and what you're gonna
have, man. This is a song called Get it While You Can 'cause it ain't
gonna be there when you wake up, man. (On Richard!) Richard Bell on
piano.
Get it While You Can
In this world, if you read the papers, darling,
You know everybody's fighting with each other.
You got no one you can count on, dear,
Not even your own brother.
So if someone comes along,
He gonna give you love and affection,
I'd say get it while you can, yeah,
Honey, get it while you can, yeah,
Honey, grab it while you can,
Don't you turn your back on love, no, no, no.
When you're loving somebody, baby,
You're taking a gamble against some sorrow.
But who knows, baby,
'Cause we may not be here tomorrow.
And if anybody comes along,
He gonna give you love and affection,
I'd say get it while you can, yeah!
Honey, grab it when you're gonna need it!
Yeah hey, hold it while you can,
Don't you turn your sweet back on love,
No no no, no no no no no!
Ah! Once I had me a man,
But I didn't know enough at the time
To count my blessings, no no,
But I wish he could see me crying today,
'Cause his love don't feel to listen.
And if anybody comes along,
He gonna give me love and affection,
Yeah, hey!, Hey! Yeah! Hey!
Get it while you can, yeah!
Honey, get it while you can, yeah!
Honey, get it while you can,
Don't you turn your back on love,
No no no, no no no no.
Get it while you can, yeah!
Honey, grab it while you can, yeah!
I said, hold on to that man, love,
Hold on to that man whole,
Yeah, get it, want it, need it,
Get it, get it, hold it, need it, want it,
Get it, need it, want it, hold it,
Get it, squeeze it, love it, touch it,
Use it, need it, want it, get it,
Need it, want it, hold it,
Yeah hey, get it while you can, baby,
Yeah hey, get it while you can,
Honey, don't you go and turn your sweet back on love,
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
No, no, daddy, you'll be sorry,
No, no, no, no!
Why, thank you! I don't smoke. I just don't sleep, man, that's the
trouble. I gotta sleep sometime. There's too much happening, why sleep,
man ? I might miss a party.
Ball and Chain! Ball and Chain! Ball and Chain.
Stay short tonight man, shorten it, shorten it, shorten it.
Three, four!
Yeah!!!
Ball and Chain
S-sitting down by my window,
Oh, looking at the rain.
S-sitting down by my window now now,
All around I felt it,
All I could see was the rain.
Something grabbed a hold of me, honey,
Felt to me honey like, Lord, a ball and chain.
Yeah! Hey! You know what I mean,
But it's way too heavy for you,
You can't hold it tomorrow.
Say, whoa, whoa, honey, it can't be
Just because I got to want your love
Please please please please, whoa please, please.
Whoa, honey it can't be
Just because I got to need you daddy.
Please don't you let me down, no, please, Lord!
Here you gone today, but I wanted to love you,
I wanted to hold you, yeah, till the day I die,
Till the day, till the day,
Yeah! Hey! Hey! All right!
Say, whoa, whoa, honey this can't be
Not anything I ever wanted from you daddy
Tell me now, now, now, now, oh, tell me now, yeah.
I say, whoa, whoa, honey this can't be
No, no, no, no, no, no, no ... yeah yeah, hey!
And I want someone that could tell me, tell me why
Just because I got to want your love
Honey, just because I got to need, need, need your love
I said I don't understand, honey, but I wanna chance to try
Try, try, try, try try try try
Honey when everybody in the world wants the same damn thing
When everybody in the world will need the same lonely thing
When I wanna work for your love, daddy.
When I wanna try for your love, daddy.
I don't understand how come you're gone, man. I don't understand why
half the world is still crying, man, when the other half of the world
is still crying too, man, I can't get it together. I mean, if you got
a cat for one day, man — I mean, if you, say, say, if you want
a cat for 365 days, right — You ain't got him for 365 days, you
got him for one day, man. Well I tell you that one day, man, better
be your life, man. Because, you know, you can say, oh man, you can cry
about the other 364, man, but you're gonna lose that one day, man, and
that's all you've got. You gotta call that love, man. That's what it
is, man. If you got it today you don't want it tomorrow, man, 'cause
you don't need it, 'cause as a matter of fact, as we discovered in the
train, tomorrow never happens, man. It's all the same fucking day, man.
So you gotta, when you wanna hold a sigh,
You gotta hold him like it's the last minute in your life, baby.
You gotta hold, whoa, whoa, hold him
'Cause someday some weight's gonna come on your shoulders, babe,
It's gonna feel too heavy, it's gonna weigh on you,
It's gonna feel just like a ball, ball, ball, oh daddy,
And a chain. InicioIn Concert Disco 1
