  • Al Green - Love and Happiness
    Lyrics:
    Love and happiness, yeah
    Something that can make you do wrong, make you do right
    Love
    Love and happiness
    But wait a minute
    Something's going wrong
    Someone's on the phone
    Three o'clock in the morning
    Talkin' about how she can make it right, yeah
    Well, happiness is when, you really feel good with somebody
    But nothing wrong with being in love with someone, yeah
    Oh, baby, love and happiness
    Love and happiness
    Love and happiness (love and happiness) oh
    I have to say
    Love and happiness (love and happiness)
    Love and happiness (love and happiness)
    You be good to me
    I'll be good to you
    We'll be together, yeah
    We'll see each other
    Walk away with victory, yeah oh baby
    Love and happiness (love and happiness)
    Love and happiness (love and happiness)
    Hey, hey, hey, hey
    Make you do right, love'll make you do wrong
    Make you come home early
    Make you stay out all night long
    The power of love
    Wait a minute
    Let me tell you
    Oh the power
    Power of love
    Power of love, power
    Make you do right, love'll make you do wrong
    Ha yeah
    (Love and happiness, love and happiness)
    Say love
    (Love and happiness, love and happiness)
    Make you want to dance
    Love and happiness
    Love is, wait a minute, love is
    Yeah, walkin' together, yeah, talkin' together
    Say it again, say it together, yeah
    Say wanna moans
    Moan for love, say, hmm
    Moan for love, hmm
    Moan for love
    Talkin' 'bout the power

    Happy 72nd birthday to the Reverend Al Green, the preacher Soul vocalist first great soul singer of the '70's and arguably the last great Southern soul singer. With his seductive singles for Hi Records in the early '70's, Green bridged the gap between deep soul and smooth Philadelphia soul.
