Throwback Tuesday-Teddy P

Teddy P has been on rotation in my CD player at work all day. Yes, I said CD player. I actually own an iPod. But, it's something taking my time to flip through the collections at the record stores. I prefer that over downloading. Again, another old school trait trapped in this 20 something year old body.

Check out the real deal, player music from the 70's. Love this song. Take note my brothers...

You're My Latest My Greatest Inspiration
--Teddy Pendegrass

I've been so many places,
I've seen so many things
But none quite so lovely as you
More beautiful than the Mona Lisa
Worth more than gold
And my eyes have the pleasure to behold

Chorus
You're my latest and my greatest
My latest, my greatest inspiration

Things never looked clearer,
peace within never felt nearer
My burden's gone, it's turned to a song
Tender as a baby's touch,
I needed you, oh, so much
At last the load is so light

Chorus

I plan to give you all that I have
I'll be everything, everything you think I am
You make life a joy to live
And I'm thankful, yes, I'm blessed just to know you

I've been so many places,
I've seen so many things
But none quite so delectable as you
More beautiful than the Mona Lisa
Worth more than gold
And my eyes have the pleasure just to behold

Chorus

You inspire me, inspire me
Don't you know, my latest, my greatest inspiration
You keep just keep on liftin' me up now
(Higher)
Mmm
(Higher)
You inspire me, I want you to keep liftin' me up
(Higher)(Higher)
I want you to keep on liftin' me up
(Higher)
Alright
(Higher)
Alright
See, you got me, you got me doin' things
(Higher)
I've never done before
(Higher)
See, you inspire me, you inspire me
Don't you know I love you, girl
(Higher)
Hey, hey, hey
(Higher)
Mmm, mmm, hmm
You, you, you, you keep on liftin' me
(Higher)
Higher
(Higher)
Higher
Higher, higher, you, you, you keep on liftin' me
(Higher)
Higher
(Higher)
Higher
Oh, oh
(Higher)
You keep on liftin' me
(Higher)
You keep on liftin' me
You know what you do to me
Come on keep on liftin' me
(Higher)
High
(Higher)
Higher

He was either waist deep in love or had the tightest game of all time. Either way, I appreciate the lyrics. Thanks Teddy...
