An’ I don’t want much outa life,
I never wanted a mansion in the south.
I just-a want to find someone sincere
Who’d treat me like he talks,
One good man.

— Janis Joplin I Got Dem Ol' Kozmic Blues Again Mama! (1969)

Music’s for grooving man, and music’s not for puttin’ yourself through bad changes, y’know?

Please don'tcha do it to me babe, no!
Please don'tcha do it to me baby,
Either take this love I offer
Or honey let me be.

Pearl (1971)

Oh Lord, won't you buy me a Mercedes Benz? My friends all drive Porsches, I must make amends

Pearl (1971)

Tomorrow never happens. It's all the same fucking day, man.

Honey, I love to go to parties,
And I like to have a good time,
But if it gets too pale after a while
Honey and I start looking to find
One good man.
