Janis Joplin - Work Me, Lord Lyrics
Work me Lord, work me Lord.
Please don't you leave me,
I feel so useless down here
With no one to love
Though I've looked everywhere
To feel my care.
So ah work me Lord, whoa use me Lord,
Don't you know how hard it is
Trying to live all alone.
Every day I keep trying to move forward,
But something is driving me, oh, back,
Honey, something's trying to hold on to me,
To my way of life.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
Ah, ah, don't you forget me, Lord.
Well I don't think I'm any very special
Kind of person down here, I know better,
But I don't think you're gonna find anybody,
Not anybody who could say that they tried like I tried,
The worst you can say all about me
Is that I'm never satisfied. Whoa.
Whoa, oh, oh, work me Lord, hmm, use me Lord,
Please, honey, don't you leave me,
I feel so useless down here.
I can't find me anybody to love me
And I've looked around,
I've looked everywhere, everywhere
And I can't find me anyone to love,
To feel my care.
So honey don't you go and leave me, Lord,
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
Honey, don't you go off and leave me, Lord.
Can't I show you how hard it is
Trying to live when you're all alone.
Everyday I keep pushing,
Keep trying to move forward
But something is driving me, oh, back,
And something's trying to hold on to me,
To my way of life, why.
Oh please, please, oh don't you go and
Forget me down here, don't forget me, Lord.
I think that maybe you can ease me,
Maybe I can help you, said uh whoa,
Oh please, please, don't you go and leave me Lord,
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, whoa, whoa please,
Hmm please, don't you leave me, Lord.

Janis Joplin Work Me, Lord Comments
I love this woman so much 😍😭
Words can't properly express how much I love her soul.
Masterpiece
I know this is a video but Im alone in my room and was driven to applause
My problem is not that i wanna find someone to love. My problem is that people i like never like me back 😪😭
oha amına koyim
Im obsessed
The best singing i ve ever listened to...
This is my first time hearing Janis and oh my she’s so raw my generation really missed but with a energy like that I’m sure she will be back soon!!
Janis was amazing please keep discovering her the early stuff as well as the more well known have you ever listened to Beth Hart she is as close to Janis as you can get
O que falar, não tem o que falar, nem uma frase ou palavra pode definir, é estupidez.
Just... unreal
I cry when I watch her live vids. A good but sad cry. She has the most amazing voice, and I mourn it. Miss you Janis. When I get wherever you are, we are Ganna party it the fuck up! 💜❤️💜❤️💜❤️
This song is perfect for her, was shocked she didnt write it herself but thank god she sang it...u can tell it means so much to her x
RIP ❤️🌹🕯️
My baby
This is so good because she couldn't find drugs in Europe.
can you please remove the copyright claim from svt for sharing this video on my channel?
If you listen...i'm so sad I wasn't around to stop her.
Her eyes in the begining were so strange, she was pure emotion, i wonder what was on her mind.

Por dios, se está desangrando en el escenario 😩😩😩Es increíble todo lo que transmite Janis❤❤❤
I feel like this is her best live performance of any song she has sang!! Like she SAANGG THE FUCCK OUTTA THIS SONG AND BARELY GOT ANY APPLAUSE AT THE END! ugh she's incredible 😍😍
this was an awesome band..........this was a problem, because they were too good......janis was a gritty blues singer, she should have stay with big brother.....
Даром не надо. Страшная баба похожая на мужика изощряется в вокале. Ни тепло, ни холодно. Бездушно. Бесноватая. Смирительную рубашку принесите, успокойте уже женщину!
Grace rod Stewart
The words are incredible. I felt that way a few times. Listening to her sing this on the Kozmic Blues album I discovered in 1970 was it for me. I've been hooked since. Beautiful woman inside and out. Love this version too.
Perfect
lover....lover...lover....janis joplin
no stone left unturned here.
SIMPLELY DIVINA!!! THANKS JANIS FOR ALL YOUR MUSIC. MAY GOD HAVE YOU SINGING FOR ALL THE ETERNITY!!!
when people cared enough about the music they made that sweat covered their faces. the point is to break a sweat-thats what the culture nowadays doesn't understand
I can't fall in love with the right people because I'm in love with an asshole... I'm never satisfied. Work me Lord!!!
Adoro Essa Musica 😢😢😢😢😢🙇🙇🙇🙇
My favorite live from her! I keep coming back to it every day, it's an addiction <3
NOBODY can sing like her :)
5:30 . Oh, Janis, you were so special!
Essa mulher é muito foda! Provavelmente não tinha noção da potência e do mulherão que era! Sigo firme sendo fã!
I love music, many tunes give me goosebumps and raise the arm hairs, but only Janis can add a lump to your throat and a tear to your eye, such a tortured but beautiful soul, no-one compares and never will :-) (Please refrain from replying with Courtney Hadwin links, she's great, but 13 yr old girls with happy lives will never be this good!)
Someone Please make a movie about her
CLIVE DAVIS IS SHADY .
CLIVE = EVIL C 👺

Work me Lord, work me Lord.

Don't you know how hard it is
Trying to live all alone.
Every day I keep trying to move forward,
But something is driving me, oh, back,
Honey, something's trying to hold on to me,
To my way of life.
So don't you forget me down here, Lord,
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
