Ray Charles

Ray Charles Robinson (September 23, 1930 – June 10, 2004) was an American musician known as Ray Charles (to avoid confusion with champion boxer Sugar Ray Robinson.) He was a pioneer in the genre of soul music during the 1950s by fusing rhythm and blues, gospel, and blues styles into his early recordings with Atlantic Records. He also helped racially integrate country and pop music during the 1960s with his crossover success on ABC Records, most notably with his Modern Sounds albums. While with ABC, Charles became one of the first African-American musicians to be given artistic control by a mainstream record company.Frank Sinatra called Charles “the only true genius in show business.” more »

Don't set me free
And leave me all alone
Don't make me be
Just a rolling stone
Lock me up and throw the key away
Make me a prisoner night and day
And whatever you do to me
Don't set me free

Don't set me free
On my knees I pray
Have mercy on me
Don't send me away
Like a train jumpin off a track
Without ya baby, I'd blow my stack
And whatever you do to me
Don't set me free

Like a stamp on a letter, if you let me stick with you
I could love you better, than anyone else can do

So don't set me free
Though I've done you wrong
Baby can't you see
Without you I can't get along
Keep me in a state of agony
Make me miserable as can be
And whatever you do to me
Don't set me free

Like a stamp on a letter, if you let me stick with you
I could love you better, than anyone else can do

So don't set me free
Though I've done you wrong
Baby can't you see
Without you I can't get along
Keep me in a state of agony
Make me miserable as can be
And whatever you do to me
Don't set me free
No, no, no, don't set me free
I'm saying no, no don't set me free
Baby, no, no, don't set me free
