I went to see Jools Holland and the r+ b orchestra at the Rose of Tralee fest. on Monday. He did a song that went" work with me baby,cause I cant work with you.." No luck searching,tried a couple of sites.It was the best music Ive heard live for a long time. Thanks

Might want to ask here:

JOOLS FANS FORUM

... and ask them why they are not using the fastest, most addicting (and thus commercially attractive) forum design on the Net.

I have no idea whether this is the same song Jools Holland did, but I found this:

WORK WITH ME
by Sonny Boy Williamson II (Rice Miller)

Yes, work with me, baby, and I'll work with you.
Work with me, mama, and I will work with you.
I'll try to make it so pleasant, darlin', 'till you don't know what to do!

Ah, let me work wit' you, and I'll learn you how to work with me.
Let me work wit' you, and I'll learn you how to work with me.
Little girl, I'll make you so happy, be as happy as a child can be!

Oh, I like to work with you, baby. I can work all night long.
I like to work with you, baby. I can work all night long.
If you work with me, little girl, you know you can't go wrong!

Mama, I never gets tired of workin'. I trained up workin' from a kid.
Never gets tired of workin'. I brought up workin' from a kid.
Anytime I put up a good job for you, don't try to keep it hid!
Or tell your girlfriends 'bout the work I did!

[from "One Way Out" (Chess, 1968)]

Also J. C. Lodge recorded a different song called WORK WITH ME BABY, written by Errol O'Meally. It has a reggae beat. I transcribed this from samples:


So many times I tried to talk to you,
But it seems my message won't get through.
Can't you see I'm not your enemy?
Is it so hard for you to work with me?

Hey, work with me, baby. We can be anything we want to be.
Work with me, baby. Why don't you work with me?
Work with me, baby. Get it together and you will see....
