SUFFERIN' IN THE LAND
===
Da-da-dai-dai, da-da-dai, da-da-dai ....
Suffering in the land

It is plain to see we're in a terrible situation
Sufferin' in the land
Nearly half of the world on the verge of starvation
Sufferin' in the land
And the children are crying for more education
Sufferin' in the land
Let's singin'

Da-da-dai-dai ....
Suffering in the land

The rich get richer and the poor get poorer
Sufferin' in the land
Everything's gettin' higher and the time gettin' tougher
Sufferin' in the land
They're making guns and bombs to set the world on fire
Sufferin' in the land
I'm singin'

Da-da-dai-dai ....
Suffering in the land, Lord
Da-da-dai-dai ....
Suffering in the land

COME INTO MY LIFE
===
Mmh mmh mmh mmh, yeah

Come into my life, come into my life
Come into my life, oh baby
Come in today
(Come on in)
Come in to stay
(Come on in)
Come into my life, oh baby

The first time that I met you
I knew I had to make you mine
And when I kissed you
I knew I want you all the time

I don't need no sympathy
All I need is your love for me
Tell me now and I make you happy
Oh baby

Come into my life, come into my life
Come into my life, oh baby
Come in today
(Come on in)
Come in to stay
(Come on in)
Come into my life, oh baby

Hold me and fold me
Anyway into your will
Bend me and shape me
Baby as long as you love me still

I don't need no sympathy
All I need is your love for me
Tell me now and I'll make you happy
Hey baby

Come into my life, come into my life
Come into my life, oh baby
Come in today
(Come on in)
Come in to stay
(Come on in)
Come into my life, oh baby

Come into my life 'cause I need you
(Come into my life)
Said I want you
(Come into my life)
I gotta have you baby
(Come into my life)
Oh yeah, right now
(Come into my life)

And oh yeah, yeah, yeah
(Come into my life)
Said I need you, child
(Come into my life)
Ah ah yeah, I need your love
(Come into my life)
I gotta have you right now
