Original Broadway Cast Of Aint Too Proud -
Ain't Too Proud: The Life and Times of The Temptations (Original Broadway Cast Recording)
I Could Never Love Another (After Loving You)
David Ruffin
You are officially removed of your duties as a Temptation
Say what?
When the time came to kick Ruffin out
No one said a word to defend him
Not even Eddie
How you gonna have a group without me?
We oughta be calling the group, "David Ruffin and the Temptations"!
Just like "Smokey Robinson and the Miracles"
"Junior Walker and the All Stars"
It's about the lead, ain't it?
It's about the group, David!
That's what you don't seem to understand
Otis, you know can't nobody sing like me
Come on, Otis
Don't do this to me, man!
We supposed to be brothers!
You came to me!
Said I was the missing link
You came to me!
David, man, I- I'm sorry
You ain't hip for this no more
You just peaked
Y'all can't kick me out like this!
Without David Ruffin on the hit
The Temptations ain't never gonna be shit!
Man, I can't believe my ears
Are you really telling me goodbye?
See you taking away my reason for living
And you won't even tell me why
Before you walk out the door
There's something I want you to know
That I could never love, ever love another
After loving you
Oh, baby
On my bended knees
I'm begging you to stay here with me
Oh
We were losing the star lights of our group
My childhood friend
Our diamond in the rough
But all progress requires a little sacrifice
Right?
Ah, ah
I could never love another (never, never love another)
After loving you
Ah, hoo hoo
Ah, ah
You are officially removed of your duties as a Temptation
Say what?
When the time came to kick Ruffin out
No one said a word to defend him
Not even Eddie
How you gonna have a group without me?
We oughta be calling the group, "David Ruffin and the Temptations"!
Just like "Smokey Robinson and the Miracles"
"Junior Walker and the All Stars"
