Al Green - Strong As Death (Sweet As Love) Lyrics
Strong as death, sweet as love
with the grace, of a dove
Oh baby
Let me in your life
There's no need in us crying
Hey baby
I'm in the mood for love
If I could tell a story
Of just how it was
Before there was you and me
Before there was love
It was a sad affair
Before I find [?]
Help me off the shelf
Sweet baby
One more thing I got to say
Strong as death,
You're a power to be
Sweet as love,
To you and me
Hey baby
Take a chance on me
Strong as death, sweet as love
Hey let me just sing
Strong as death, honey, sweet as love
Strong as death, honey, sweet as love
Strong as love, sweet as love
ah, you're playing to much music for me

l love all Al Green songs, his songs help me through most of the years of my life. Thank you Jesus for Al Green!
That scream at 3:50 cuts deeply to my very soul.
a movie need to be done on al green from soulful to gospel and well rounded brother whom still here
Yes yes yes indeed
Always one of my favorites! Superb song & record with his voice, The Hodges brothers doing their thing & Willie Mitchell's production!
KGB - Bless Ya Life sampled
He should have an unsung or something. With all of this great music, there's gotta be an incredibly interesting story behind his career! Let's not wait until...
found it in the good old public library in cincinnati ohio,
Simply a beautiful tune! God Bless
This song was for his girlfriend Mary Woodson. On the same night this song was recorded she threw a pot of hot grits on Al for turning down her marriage proposal. Immediately after she ran into the bedroom and committed suicide with Greens gun.
This is true..also she had come into the studio drunk as skunk..Willie Mitchell said they had seen her laid out..Carlotta Williams, a delta airlines steward, was in the studio that night as well, she had befriended Al on his many travels..they both got in his Rolls Royce and headed to his 21 room mansion ..Al had already warned both nothing kinky was going to occur..as Carlotta went to freshen up Mary went to the kitchen to prepare the very thing that would change his life forever..he went up to shower and relax when she had asked him that..he rejected and said let's talk about that in the morning..next thing when he turned away he was all in it..went into the next room while Carlotta was nursing him throwing cold water then BOOM BOOM she was done..Oct 18, 1974
She threw the grits because Reverend Al refused to marry her. Al Green would learn after Woodson's death, that she was, in fact, already married with four children. On the night of the suicide, Green' platonic friend, flight attendant Carlotta Williams was also spending the night at Green's home. Williams came to Green's aid. While she helped him, they heard the gun fire from the suicide. -rewindingblack dot com
Don't know the real details, but from my understanding is she was already married and having an affair with THE GOOD REV, I saw an interview with the man that was supposed to be her husband, and AL supposedly gave him a cash settlement. IF SHE WAS MY WIFE HAVING AN AFFAIR WITH HIM, NO I WOULDN'T WANT HIM IN JAIL, I WANT THE MONEY, SHE WAS CHEATING AND GOT KILLED SO WHAT, GIVE ME THE CASH, CAUSE I WOULDN'T WANT HER ANYMORE ANYWAY
BULLSHIT........
That's not a true statement ! The incident ( tragedy ) occurred 1974 . It was quite sad wasn't it ? She was married, with 4 children. The song your refering to is Sha La La ( and I love you ).
Wasted as a B side... tune !..
take a chance on me.....
my favorite of al green
itunes!
arrepia.. al green sem palavras... paz a todos!!
I Love this song. Al green is amazing. His music just brightens your day, I grew up listening to him. My mother and Father use to always play his music. His music makes me think about my uncle C.W R.I.P but its all filled with good loving memories.
Strong as soul sweet as Pop!
the lord is big
This song is one of the best kept secrets of 70's music. Amazing!
y is this not on iTunes?
I flipped this sample into a beat. Its called "Sweet As Death". Find it @ troykbeats.bandcamp.com
i heard it on pandora and its stuck in my head.
why cant buy this song on iTunes? they have all of his other music but this.
sOUNDTRACK MURDERED THIS FOR lUPE'S JAWN
So Cold..... Classic
I love when he say we don't have that much time,and when he say we don't have to fuss and fight that's what I'M THATS WALK I'M TALKIN BOUT !!!!
@MxHaZem0nKeY the most time you need for is to find a really good sample! to produce a song is not so complicated as finding a "new hit sample"
everything what sounds good could be a good beat
bless ya life
