Here's what I got for Fly Away. It's not the same as Rebbie's version. I have a good ear for lyrics, but I think the greater part is patience and perseverance. It's just like when Michael would learn a dance move, he'd work on it 1000 times in a row.
Our love's an ocean
Give me an ocean cause
You know I'll never part our love goodbye
I’ll love in season
Give me a reason 'cause
You know I'll never part our love goodbye
And together we'll fly
I'll give you my heart
There's no place too far for us
We don't need e’er go
Our love's an ocean
Give me an ocean 'cause
You know I'll never part, our love could not
I’ll love in season
Give me a reason 'cause
You know I'll never part, our love couldn’t part
And together we'll fly
I'll give you my heart
No place too far for us
We don't need it
Baby don't make me
Baby don't make me
Baby don't make me fly away
Gonna stay, love today
Baby don't make me
Baby don't make me
Baby don't make me fly away
Gonna stay and love today
I love that notion
Gimme a potion 'cause
You know I'll never seek a thing we’re seein’
Our love a reason
Give me the choosin' 'cause
You know I'll never part our love somehow
And together we'll fly
I'll give you my heart (I’d give you my heart)
No place too far for us
We don't need it
Baby don't make me
Baby don't make me
Baby don't make me fly away
Gonna stay and love today
Baby don't make me
Baby don't make me
Baby don't make me fly away
Gonna stay and love today
Love is here to stay
A love to last
I'd give you my heart (I'd give you my heart)
There's no place too far for us
We don't need that
Baby don't make me
Baby don't make me
Baby don't make me fly away
Gonna stay, love today
Baby don't make me
Baby don't make me
Baby don't make me fly away
Gonna stay, love today
Baby don't make me
Baby don't make me
Baby don't make me fly away
Gonna stay, love today
(I love you, I love you, love you, love you, cannot make me fly away, fly away)
Baby don't make me
Baby don't make me
Baby don't make me fly away
Gonna stay, love today

I might as well go ahead and post my interpretations of the others. These are interpretations based on what it sounds like he's saying and what might fit there. As everyone else has, I leave it to you all to judge what the final version would be.
DON'T BE MESSIN' 'ROUND
Are you ready for a feel good time, my love
Are you ready for a real good treat
There'll be so much
A dancin', singin' handful
All you girls followin' unto me
So don't be messin' 'round
Don't be messin' 'round (with me)
Don't be messin' 'round (you hear, hey hey)
So don't be messin' 'round
Don't be messin' 'round (with me)
Don't be messin' 'round (you hear, hey)
Don't you start it, not a good thing to do
You can say this really ain't your crime
I'll be so proud if you let me know it, girl
Let me love you for a little while, my style
Don't be messin' 'round
Don't be messin' 'round
Don't be messin' 'round (you hear, hey hey)
So don't be messin' 'round
Don't be messin' 'round (with me)
Don't be messin' 'round (you hear, hey)
Ah haw, yeah
Oh whoa, yeah
Ah haw, yeah
Ah ah, yeah
Ooh ooh
Now she started finger poppin' to the beat
So I said let's groove out on the floor
She said to keep your mind on dancin'
Won't be no romancin', naw, no
Don't mess it 'round with me, I ain't playin'
Don't be messin' 'round
Don't be messin' 'round (with me)
Don't be messin' 'round (with me, hey hey)
So don't be messin' 'round
Don't be messin' 'round (you hear)

So don't be messin' 'round
Don't be messin' 'round (with me)
Don't be messin' 'round (with me, hey hey)
This is the fade...
I'M SO BLUE
There we are, as cold as ice
Asking me to love you
And often be your friend
There you are, I walk alone
Telling me to love you
And often be your end
She told me she'd given me
A lifetime love forever true
But she left me for another man
And I'm singin' to keep from feelin' blue
All I know is
Ja da da da da d'n da (Hold on)
Ja da da da da d'n da (Well)
Ja da da da da d'n da
Come on, set me free (Set me free, ooh)
Here I am, so all alone
And I'm so sad and lonely
Tell me what will I do
I can't appeal, I'm holdin' on
An outcome sayin' to love be
I feel I am your fool
They told me you should sing a song
Of happy when you're feelin' blue
I've been singin' for so very long
Still, I'm cryin'
Tell me what should I do
All I know is
Ja da da da da d'n da (Hold on)
Ja da da da da d'n da (Yeah)
Ja da da da da d'n da
Come on, set me free (Set me free, ooh)
She told me she'd given me
A lifetime love so guaranteed (guaranteed)
Then she left me for another man
And I'm singin', cryin' helplessly
But I'll keep singin'
Ja da da da da d'n da (Hold on)
Ja da da da da d'n da (All my life)
Ja da da da da d'n da
Come on, set me free (Set me free)
Whoa (Talk about my life)
Ja da da da da d'n da (And I'll keep crying)
Ja da da da da d'n da (That someone, can it be)
Ja da da da da d'n da (Hol' on, hol' on)
Come on, set me free (Set me free)
All I know is
Ja da da da da d'n da (Whoa, whoa)
Ja da da da da d'n da (All my life, I know)
Ja da da da da d'n da
Come on, set me free (Set me free)
SONG GROOVE A/K/A ABORTION PAPERS
Sister don't read/She'll never know
What about love/Living our Christian song
What do we get if she runs away
What about love/What about all I pray
Who’ll through the worst she knows/A thief
What if I die living/As don’t I see
What fool/You can think she will say
What about love/That's all I pray
Those abortion papers
Signed in your name against the Word of God
Those abortion papers
Think about life, I'd like to have my child
Sister confused/She wandered off
What about love/What about "all thy soul"
Biding her time/Reading the words
Singing of song/Reciting a Bible verse
Father's confused/Mother's despair
Brothers, encourage/What about all I say
You know the time you gave her love
What about heart/That soul I've known
Those abortion papers
Signed in your name against the Word of God
Those abortion papers
Think about life, I'd like to have my child
Those abortion papers
Signed in your name against the Word of God
Those abortion papers
Think about life, I'd like to have my child
Look at my world/What do they say
Look at my heart burning/That's all I pray
What do you care/What do you say
What about love to feel my sin
Those abortion papers
Signed in your name against the Word of God
Those abortion papers
Think about life, I'd like to have my child
Those abortion papers
Think about life, I'd like to have my child
You have the grade book
Where will she go
What will she do
To eat/For work
Sister don't know/Where will she go
What about love/What about all I stole
What will you give/When I'm confused
Love only this/It's just the things I do
Those abortion papers
Signed in your name against the Word of God
Those abortion papers
Think about life, I'd like to have my child
Those abortion papers ('bortion papers, 'tion paper, hee hee...)
Those abortion papers
I'd like to have my child
Those abortion papers
Those abortion papers
I'd like to have my child
FREE
You're the one that I adore
You kissed me once and don't ignore me
Tell me things, you offerin’ me "I do"
All the things I want to say, and
Tell me things you are, that may, and
All the lives you had
This ain't "I do"
Ooh, ooh, ooh baby
Yesterday is when I fell down and you
Came with my head stuck in pain on the ground and you
Helped to save the life in me
All this ain't "I do"
That's why I want to be
Free, free like the wind blow
To fly away just like the sparrow
The feel of letting my hair blow
Just take my time wherever I go
I, me, mine
You're the one that I adore
Just kiss me once I won't ignore you
Feel our fire that I can feel in mind
If you are the one for me
Just tell me twice and I will see
The heart and soul of all the things I feel
Ooh, ooh, ooh, no
Yesterday when I fell down a star
Tryin' to make the first thing
That I was around you know
Life is just a thing you don't pass the way I do
Ah, oh, babe
Cause I want to be
Free, free like the wind blow
To fly away just like the sparrow
The feel of letting my hair blow
To take my time wherever I go
I want to be
Free, free like the wind blow
To fly away just like a sparrow
The feel of letting my hair blow
To take my time wherever I go
I, me, mine
Babe, alright, uh huh
Alright, uh, uh, oh yeah, yeah
Yesterday was when I fell down my star
Tryin' to make sense of it
I'm walkin' around your star
Tryin' to make a way to say
Why does think "I do"
You are you (Um-hmm, um-hmm, um-hmm)
Cause I want to be
Free, free like the wind blow
To fly away just like the sparrow
The feel of letting my hair blow
To take my time wherever I go
I want to be
Free, free like the wind blow (Like the wind, babe)
To fly away just like the sparrow (Wherever I go)
The feel of letting my hair blow (And I'll take my time, baby)
To take my time wherever I go (Take my time wherever I go)
I want to be
Free, free like the wind blow (Free, like the wind)
To fly away just like the sparrow (All in my mind)
The feel of letting my hair blow (Whoa, whoa, whoa, oh, babe)
To take my time wherever I go (Wherever I go)
Free, free like the wind blow (To be free, I want to be free)
To fly away just like the sparrow (I got to be free, babe, I want to be me)
The feel of letting my hair blow (Ah, ah, oh, oh, baby)
To take my time wherever I go (Wherever I go, ooh)
Got to be free, babe
PRICE OF FAME
I took my baby on a river boat cruise
And she was well aware
I was excited 'bout the way that things could have been
She said that I don't care
I wore a face no one could recognize (in disguise)
Someone called out my name
They started takin' pictures, autographs can we have
My joy had turned to pain
Father always told me you won't live a quiet life
If you're reachin' for fortune and fame
I feel the pressure settin' in
I'm livin' just to win
I'm dullin' in my pain
Don't be feelin' no pain
It's the price of fame, you pay the price of fame
So don't be feelin' no pain
It's the price of fame, it's the price of fame
So don't you ever complain
I am a cover of a magazine (what a scene)
They know my every news
Just sign your name on the dotted line (you'll be fine)
That always bothers me
Get in your car, you wanna take a ride (look behind)
Someone is followin' you
You try to get away, you turn real fast (but too bad)
They know your every move
My father always told me you won't live a quiet life
If you're reachin' for fortune and fame
And I feel the pressure settin' in
I'm livin' just to win
I'm feelin' all this pain
Don't you ever complain
It's the price of fame, you pay the price for fame
So don't you ever complain
It's the price of fame, you pay the price for fame
So don't be feelin' no pain
It's the price of fame, you pay the price of fame
Father never lies (Price of fame)
My father never lies
My father never lies (Price of fame)
So don't be feeling this way, boy
I'd like to take some time, then get away (Then they say)
Is that boy still alive
The Weekday Village, "started taking pills" (What a deal)
Only the strong survive
My father always told me you won't live the quiet life
They start to wondering where have you been
I feel the envious look at me
But mistaken jealousy
And then stand here in my shoes
And get a taste of my blues
It's the price of fame, you pay the price of fame
So don't you ever complain
It's the price of fame, you pay the price for fame
So don't be feelin' this way
It's the price of fame, you pay the price for fame
So don't you ever complain
It's the price of fame, you pay the price of fame
My father never lies (Price of fame)
My father never lies, baby
My father never lies (Price of fame)
So don't be feelin' no pain, boy
AL CAPONE
Why did you let him get away
After the staring, what did she say
Soon to be bathing cold as ice
Scream, then my fist then pull your knife
She'll shout there's fire and I'll reach in
Knowing my job, he’ll get revenge
Why did you let him get away
Why did you let him get a-
Too bad, forget it
Cause as Al Capone presented,
So sad, regret it
Cause the man meant (madman’s), out tonight
You shouldn't have told her
Nobody ever showed her
Bodies
And no one's deep in
Nobody should be grieved
In this way
You shouldn't have told her
Nobody ever showed her
Bodies
And no one's deep in
Nobody should be grieved
In this way
Why did you let him get away
After the staring, what did she say
She’s to be bathing cold as ice
Scream, then my fist then pull your knife
She'd shout there's fire and I'll reach in
Know it’s my job to get revenge
Why did you let him get away
Why did you let him get a-
Too bad, forget it
Cause as Al Capone presented,
So sad, regret it
And I told her out tonight
You shouldn't have told her
Nobody ever showed her
Bodies
And no one's deep in
Nobody should be grieved
In this way
You shouldn't have told her
Nobody ever showed her
Bodies
And no one's deep in
Nobody should be grieved
In this way
Too bad, forget it
Cause as Al Capone presented,
So sad, regret it
Cause a man is out tonight
You shouldn't have told her
Nobody ever showed her
Bodies
And no one's deep in
Nobody should be grieved
In this way
You shouldn't have told her
Nobody ever showed her
Bodies
And no one's deep in
Nobody should be breathin'
This way
You shouldn't have told her
(Shouldn't have told her)
Nobody ever showed her
(Oh my God)
Bodies
And no one's deep in
(No one's lovin')
Nobody should be grieved
(Oh my God)
In this way
You shouldn't have told her

Nobody ever showed her

Bodies
And no one's deep in
(No one's lovin')
Nobody should be grieved
(Ooh)
In this way
Why did you let him get away
After the staring, what did she say
She's gon' be bathing cold as ice
Scream, then my fist and pull your knife
She'd shout there's fire and I'll reach in
Knowing my job, they’ll get revenge
How could you let him get away
Why did you let him get away
