SISTERS written by Sheldon Manoo (Lyrics 1996, Music Ausust 2019)


Key of F# Major  (Intro F#) (Verse/Solo F# B F# C#) (Chorus B G#m B A#m G#m)

I work down at the gas station
I work real hard cause I’m poor
Longing for love like anyone else
Hoping every day is the day I score
I show my kindness to every one
To some I show a little bit more
Three sisters come almost every day
I hope one would make this loneliness cure

            With one sister being my girlfriend
            With the other two I get along fine
            Their family bond will never end
            I just wish one would be mine!

Friendly I am every time they pass
I try to say something that make sense
Silly little questions I would ask
I try not to go under false pretense
These three sisters are all beautiful
In very way that’s so true
Loving from any would be wonderful
I just want one to say,” hey I love you!”


            With one sister being my girlfriend
            With the other two I get along fine
            Their family bond will never end
            I just wish one would be mine!
            I just wish one would be mine!

            SOLO

            With one sister being my girlfriend
            With the other two I get along fine
            Their family bond will never end
            I just wish one would be mine!
            I just wish one would be mine!

ALL I AM written by Sheldon Manoo (2000)


            All I am
            Is all I want to be
            I am just what
            I expected of me
            All I am
            Is all I want to be
            I am just what
            I expected of me

And I’m pleased to know that today
Is a day that brings no insecurities
And I feel no unsurities
There’s a place that lies within
And I ain’t frightened ‘bout the unexpected
Oh I don’t feel unprotected
I been working all my life
With dedication and some sacrifice
And now I can rest assure and enjoy
These quality mo oh ments!

(SOLO)

Yes we all want to succeed
And I’ve filled my need
So I can sit back and let time move
With the knowledge that

            All I am
            Is all I want to be
            I am just what
            I expected of me
            All I am
            Is all I want to be
            I am just what
            I expected of me

And I’m happy and I’m proud
So I’d shout it out loud!

            That all I am
            Is all that I wanted
            And I won’t
            Take it for granted
            Yes all I want
            Is all I got
            So very grateful
            To be in this spot
            All I am
            Is all I want to be
            I am just what
            I expected of me
            All I am
            Is all I want to be
            I am just what
            I expected of me
