• Roxanne
  by Sting & the Police
  

  Roxanne, you don't have to put on the red light
  Those days are over
  You don't have to sell your body to the night
  Roxanne, you don't have to wear that dress tonight
  Walk the streets for money
  You don't care if it's wrong or if it's right

  Roxanne, you don't have to put on the red light
  Roxanne, you don't have to put on the red light
  Put on the red light, put on the red light
  Put on the red light, put on the red light
  Put on the red light, oh

  I loved you since I knew ya
  I wouldn't talk down to ya
  I have to tell you just how I feel
  I won't share you with another boy
  I know my mind is made up
  So put away your make up
  Told you once I won't tell you again it's a bad way

  Roxanne, you don't have to put on the red light
  Roxanne, you don't have to put on the red light
  You don't have to put on the red light
  Put on the red light, put on the red light

  This song is Amazing!  Crunch regga style guitar, creative/difficult percussion, extremely high harmonies, and sweet lyrics.  It reminds me of redemption.
