TFT: Martha Reeves


Not every song that will be featured here will be what is generally considered as being “Christian” in the eyes of this world.  For some will be anguished cries from the pit of despair while others will be quite obviously fervent rants of rebellion.  Nonetheless, be assured that they will all be of our Heavenly Father (in one way or another) and I hope that you have been given ears to hear the message.


Nowhere To Hide
Martha and The Vandellas
Nowhere to run to baby
Nowhere to hide
Got nowhere to run to baby
Nowhere to hide

It's not love
I'm runnin’ from
It's the heartaches
That I know will come
'Cause I know
You're no good for me
But you’ve become
A part of me
Everywhere I go
Your face I see
Every step I take
You take with me
Yeah

Nowhere to run to baby
Nowhere to hide
Got nowhere to run to baby
Nowhere to hide

I know
You're no good for me
But free of you
I'll never be
No

Each night
As I sleep
Into my heart
You creep
I wake up feelin’
Sorry I met you
Hopin’ soon
That I'll forget you
When I look in the mirror
And comb my hair
I see your face
Just a-smilin’ there

Nowhere to run
Nowhere to hide
Got nowhere to run to baby
Nowhere to hide

I know
You're no good for me
But you've become
A part of me

How can I fight a lover
That's sugar sweet
When it's so deep
So deep
Deep inside of me
My love reaches so high
I can't get over it
It's so wide
I can't get around it
No

Nowhere to run
Nowhere to hide
From you baby
Just can't get away
From you baby
No matter how I try
I know
You're no good for me
But free of you
I'll never be
Nowhere to run to baby
Nowhere to hide
Got nowhere to run to baby
Nowhere to hide
Got nowhere to run
Got nowhere to run


Dancing in the Street
Martha and The Vandellas
Callin' out around the world
Are you ready for a brand new beat
Summer's here
And the time is right
For dancin' in the street

They’re dancin' in Chicago
Dancin' in the street
Down in New Orleans
Dancin' in the street
In New York City
Dancin' in the street
All we need is music
Sweet sweet
Sweet
Sweet sweet
Music
They'll be music
Music
Everywhere
Everywhere
They'll be swingin'
And swayin'
And records playin'
Dancin' in the street

Oh
It doesn't matter what you wear
Just as long as you are there
So come on
Every guy
Grab a girl
Everywhere
Around the world
They’ll be dancin'
Dancin’ in the street
They’re dancin in the street
Dancin' in the street

This is an invitation
Across the nation
A chance for folks to meet
They'll be laughin'
Singin'
And music swingin'
We're dancin' in the street

Philadelphia P.A.
Dancin' in the street
Baltimore and D.C. now
Dancin' in the street
Can't forget the Motor City
Dancin' in the street
All we need is music
Sweet sweet
Sweet music
Sweet sweet music
They'll be music everywhere
Everywhere
They'll be swingin' and swayin'
Swayin'
And records playin'
Playin'
Dancin' in the street

Oh
It doesn't matter what you wear
Just as long as you are there
So come on
Every guy
Grab a girl
Everywhere
Around the world
They’re dancin'
They’re dancin' in the street
Dancin’ in the street
Way down in L.A.
Everyday
They’re dancin' in the street
In the street
Let's form a big strong line
Get in time
We're dancin' in the street
Dancin' in the street
Across the ocean blue
Me and you
They’re dancin’ in the street
Dancin’ in the street

  1. Thanks for stopping by, my dear Adullamite!!! Jagger and Bowie did a good job with their version of Dancing in the Street, but I found the rumors about just how closely they "collaborated" with each other rather disturbing.
