πŸ“œ Lyrics

Detroit, Michigan
The year? 1960
Motown Records

At that time
My group was called Otis Williams and the Distants
Now, we were recording for a little small label
Getting ready to do for you called Come On

Now, Come On did quite a bit of business
Maybe somewhat of a ruckus
So much so that we used to have to do record hops

Now, record hops is when you have a record out
You have to go 'round to whatever noted disc jockey
Was having on Friday or Saturday, even a Sunday
Uh, gathering, you'd have to go there
So you can get your rΠ΅cord played

So this one particular night
We wΠ΅re at St. Steven's Community Center
The Distants were on stage
So we're doing Come On and people are going crazy

But enter walk Smokey Robinson and the Miracles
Who was with Mr. Berry Gordy
Now, Smokey and them were very hot
Because they had, uh, Shop Around out

So, when the audience finally let us up
Because they kept us on
Calling us back for two-to-three different times
And when we finally came off
I'm standing in the crowd
Watching Smokey and the Miracles

And just so happened Mr. Gordy
Was standing next to me, and he said
"Man, I like that record you guys have out"
"Come see me, I'm starting my label"

And as fate would have it, I kept it
Kept the card
And it didn't go too well
For the label that we were recording
So I call Mickey Stevenson
Who was the A&R man for Motown
And I told him Mr. Gordy wanted us to come over
And we did just that

And I would like to say
The reason we are doing this record is because
It is the pre-eminence
Of telling the Temptations' life story

Because at that time, in 1964
Entered Melvin Franklin, David Ruffin
Eddie Kendricks was there
Paul Williams was there
Myself, Otis Williams

And when Smokey wrote
The Way You Do The Things You Do
Which was 1964
Would you believe this is 2021
And we're still hanging on

So this is our 60th anniversary album
Never would imagine
That we would get this far for so long
But you know how it is
Love can stretch a mile before it tear an inch
And, uh, here we are

So, Mr. Gordy
I know you will hear this
Smokey's go play it what he did on this album
I wanna say to you, Mr. Gordy
Thank you
For being there at the right time
And right place

'Cause God is always everywhere
And that point in time
He was there for us to make history
With you, Motown, and become part of something
That will live on forever

So, David Ruffin (Ain't too proud to beg)
Eddie Kendricks (Just my imagination)
Paul Williams (For once in my life)
Melvin Franklin (And that ain't right)
Dennis Edwards (Papa was a rollin' stone)
And all the other Temps (My girl, my girl, my girl)
That are no longer of this earth

My wonderful friend, Ron Tyson
Who's been with me for a long time
And Terry Weeks
I would be remiss
If I didn't mention some of these guys
So I just wanna let you know, aside from Berry
Given us this point of time
This wonderful time of being here

I love you all
Thank you for your support
And to all our many wonderful fans
For being there
You know my saying when I get ready to leave
See ya, later gone, God bless

(Ahh)
(Please, please, please, please)
(Please, please, please, please)
(Please, please, please, please)
Well (please, please, please)

You know you make wanna love you
(In the morning) in the morning
(In the evening) in the evening
(In the nighttime) in the nighttime
(It's the right time) it's the right time
(In the bad times) the bad times
(It's the best times) the best times

(I wanna love you) I wanna love you
(I wanna love you) I wanna love you
(I wanna love you) I wanna love you

(Come on) come on
(Come on) come on
(Come on) come on
(Come on) come on

(I wanna make love to you)
(Oh, oh, oh, oh)
(In the morning, when the birdies sing)
(I wanna love you, pretty little thing)
(In the evening, when you're feeling bad)
(I wanna be there to make you feel glad)

Well, well, well, come on
(In the night, when it's just right)
When it's just right, baby
(I wanna love you with all my might)
Yeah, I'm
(And ever since that wonderful day)
(I wanna make love to you)

Well, well, well

Oh, oh, alright
(In the evening, when you're feeling bad)
(I wanna be there to make you feel glad)

Well, well, well, come on
(In the night, when it's just right)
When it's just right, baby
(I wanna love you with all my might)
Yeah, I'm
(And ever since that wonderful day)
(I wanna make love to you)

I've been hopin'
I've been prayin'
Want you to know
I'm not playin'
My heart is full of joy
I've just got to be your boy
(I wanna make love to you)

Well, well, well
Come on (come on)
Come on (come on)
Come on (come on)
Come on (come on)
Come on (come on)
Come on (come on)
Come on (come on)

Baby (come on, hey, ooh)
Come on (come on)
Hey, baby (come on)
