Ain't Nothing Like The Real Thing - Live at the Forum, 1972 - The Jackson 5

Ain't nothing like the real thing, baby

Ain't nothing like the real thing, no, no

Ain't nothing like the real thing, baby

(Ain't nothing)

Ain't nothing like the real thing

Ooh, I've got your picture

Hanging on the wall

But it can't see or come to me

When I call your name

(When I call your name)

I realize it's just a picture in a frame

I read your letters

When you're not near

But they don't move me

And they don't groove me

Like when I hear

(When I hear your voice)

Your sweet voice

Whispering in my ear

(In my ear)

No other sound is quite the same

As your name

(Quite the same as your name)

Your touch can do half this much

To make me feel better

So let's stay together

Ooh, I got memories to look back on

Though they help when you're gone

I'm well aware

(I'm well aware)

Nothing can take the place of your being there

(Being there)

Ain't nothing like the real thing, baby

(Ain't nothing)

Ain't nothing like the real thing

Ooh, baby

Ain't nothing like the real thing, baby

(Ain't nothing)

Ain't nothing like the real thing

Ooh, baby

Ain't nothing like the real thing, baby

Ain't nothing like the real thing
