This obscure, unreleased 1974 demo recording garnered new interest when it was unearthed by Madlib for use on his and Freddie Gibbs‘ “Practice”.
[Verse 1]
Yesterday, you were mine
Now, you're gone
I thought I had someone
But she's gone
They say that experience
In love always holds its own
No matter what it takes
To make it in life
You will find that you can make it
All alone
[Verse 2]
Darling, don't look back
Cause my, that is what makes it, yeah
There is no reason
For us to be together
Without love
[Outro]
Goodbye
Tra-la-la-la-la-la-la-la (Much obliged to you)

Get up, and make it on your own
Get up, and make it on your own
