    My dad died from dementia in February2020. He he couldn't tell me what my name was. But I could put this song on, and he would perk up and sing every word of this song, and tell me the names of every member of this band. What an evil illness dementia is. I'd sacrifice 10 of my years to have one good week with my dad again. 😪

Combined with the authentic soul music coming out of "tap" at full throttle and a vibrant folk music scene it was simply the best of everything.

    My 1979 Cadillac coupé de ville that i drove in the 90s had the license plate NUMTHRN8R on it. The elders and the cops in my town loved it. I got pulled over a few times by the old time cops just to talk about the car and music of the guess who. Great times 👍

    Lyrics. Enjoy
    Lonely feeling deep inside
    Find a corner where I can hide
    Silent footsteps crowding me
    Sudden darkness but I can see
    No sugar tonight in my coffee
    No sugar tonight in my tea
    No sugar to stand beside me
    No sugar to run with me
    In the silence of her mind
    Quiet movements where I can find
    Grabbing for me with her eyes
    Now I'm falling from her skies
    No sugar tonight in my coffee
    No sugar tonight in my tea
    No sugar to stand beside me
    No sugar to run with me
    Jocko says yes, and I believe him
    When we talk about the things I say
    She hasn't got the faith or the guts to leave him
    When they're standing in each other's way
    You're tripping back now to places you've been to
    You wonder what you're gonna find
    You know you've been wrong but it won't be long
    Before you leave 'em all far behind
    'Cause it's the new Mother Nature taking over
    It's the new splendid lady come to call
    It's the new Mother Nature taking over
    She's gettin' us all
    She's gettin' us all
    Jocko said no, when I came back last time
    It's looking like I lost a friend
    No use callin' 'cause the sky is fallin'
    And I'm getting pretty near the end
    A smoke-filled room in a corner basement
    The situation must be right
    A bag of goodies and a bottle of wine
    We're gonna get it on right tonight
    'Cause it's the new Mother Nature taking over
    It's the new splendid lady come to call
    It's the new Mother Nature taking over
    She's gettin' us all
    She's getting' us all
    Jocko says yes and I believe him
    (Deep inside) when we talk about the things I say
    (Find a corner) she hasn't got the faith or the guts to leave him
    (Where I can hide)when they're standin' in each other's way
    (Silent footsteps) you're driven back now to places you've been to
    (Crowdin' me) you're wonderin' what you're gonna find
    (Sudden darkness) you know you've been wrong and it won't be long
    (But I can see) before you leave 'em all far behind
    'Cause it's the new Mother Nature takin' over
    It's the new splendid lady come to call
    It's the new Mother Nature takin' over
    She's gettin' us all, yeah, she's gettin' us all
    Da-un-do-dow dow, da-un-do-dow (Mother Nature)
    Da-un-do-dow dow, da-un-do-dow (nature)
    Da-un-do-dow dow, da-un-do-dow (sugar)
    Da-un-do-dow dow, da-un-do-dow (sugar)
    Da-un-do-dow dow, da-un-do-dow (sugar)

    I grew up listening to all genres of music and learned over the years that if you listen real closely, and yes, you might have to a few times to understand the message that is being sent through the lyrics of the song. And if you get the message and understand it then you can learn to appreciate it. I always tell my kids that music is much more than somebody writing words on paper and coming from someone's mouth. It's also gotta have the right sound to go along with it to make sense.
    I think songs from the 50's through the 70's were the best of their time. 80's,90's awesome,2000- present gets even better . Sorry for the long reply, but I enjoy music and I get in a good mood when I hear songs that still get played even to this day. 😎 Rock on

    (Find a corner) she hasn't got the faith or the guts to leave him
    (Where I can hide)when they're standin' in each other's way
    (Silent footsteps) you're driven back now to places you've been to
    (Crowdin' me) you're wonderin' what you're gonna find
    (Sudden darkness) you know you've been wrong and it won't be long
    (But I can see) before you leave 'em all far behind
    'Cause it's the new Mother Nature takin' over
    It's the new splendid lady come to call
    It's the new Mother Nature takin' over
    She's gettin' us all, yeah, she's gettin' us all
    Da-un-do-dow dow, da-un-do-dow (Mother Nature)
    Da-un-do-dow dow, da-un-do-dow (nature)
    Da-un-do-dow dow, da-un-do-dow (sugar)
    Da-un-do-dow dow, da-un-do-dow (sugar)
    Da-un-do-dow dow, da-un-do-dow (sugar)
    Da-un-do-dow dow, da-un-do-dow (nature)
    Da-un-do-dow dow, da-un-do-dow

    I'm 60 and I'm always listening to this group!! I love these songs and they should have been in the hall of fame!!
