Arthur Lee was an American musician and songwriter best known as the frontman of the rock band Love. Lee's distinct vocal style and introspective songwriting made him a key figure in the psychedelic rock movement of the 1960s. He was known for his eclectic blend of folk, rock, and R&B influences, which created a unique sound that set Love apart from their contemporaries. Lee's music often explored themes of love, self-reflection, and social commentary. Unfortunately, Lee's career was marked by personal struggles, which eventually led to a decline in his musical output. He passed away in 2006, leaving behind a legacy as a highly influential and enigmatic figure in rock music. more »

Well I remember when you used to look so good
And I did everything that I possibly could for you
We used to ride around all over town
But they're puttin' you down for bein' around with me
But you can go ahead if you want to
'Cause I ain't got no papers on you

In the middle of the summer I had a job bein' a plumber
Just to pass till the fall it was you I want to ball all day
Ah-we were walkin' along, honey, hand in hand
I'm a-thinkin' of you, mama, when you're thinkin' of another man
But you can go ahead if you want to
'Cause I ain't got no papers on you
(No, I don't I ain't got no papers on myself)

All alone on the bone when I didn't have a home
When I saw the way I was and I knew where I was supposed to be
I was twitchin' so I turned and it's really hard to learn
That everyone I saw was just another part of me
But you can go ahead if you want to
'Cause nobody's got no papers on you
(No, babe, it's just a falsehood)
