Au jus is French for "with [its own] juice"; jus is the juice itself. In American cuisine, the term is mostly used to refer to a light sauce for beef recipes, which may be served with the food or placed on the side for dipping. In French cuisine, jus is a natural way to enhance the flavour of dishes, mainly chicken, veal and lamb.
'Jus' means the natural juices given off by the food.[1] To prepare a natural jus, the cook may simply skim off the fat from the juices left after cooking and bring the remaining meat stock and water to a boil. Jus can be frozen for six months or longer, but the flavour may suffer after this time.
Often prepared in the United States is a seasoned sauce with several additional flavourings. American recipes au jus often use soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, salt, pepper, white or brown sugar, garlic, onion, or other ingredients to make something more like a gravy. So-called jus is sometimes prepared separately, rather than being produced naturally by the food being cooked. An example could be a beef jus made by reducing beef stock to a concentrated form, to accompany a meat dish.

Few days ago we were inseparable
Love so good just want more
Man how things turned I can't get to this
What a 360, what a two years
Never fussin' never no arguments
I was so happy, something I missed
Irreconcilable differences
We're not compatible,
I ask why nobody knows
Why don't we make up
We didn't have to break up
In the first place
No, no
Was it because I work like this
The overtime, the dinners I missed
The things you wanted I had to get
Life is cruel, heartache rules
Someone tell me what happened here
I'm kinda confused, I'm just not clear
How a love be gone
When it was just here
Why did we break-up
We belong together anyway
Why don't we make-up?
We didn't have to break up
In the first place
No, No.
You see baby
Maybe I'm on the road too long
But baby I always come home
Cause that's where I wanna be
With your love all around me
Girl what we have is so strong
And with a few words, it's all gone
And I feel
Something you're not telling me
You're not telling me
Why don't we make-up
We didn't have to break up
In the first place
Why did we break up
When we belong together
Anyway
Why don't we make up
We didn't have to break up
In the first place
Why did we break up

Since we had a chance to get together
Nobody knows the next time we see each other
Maybe years and years from now
Family reunion {Got to have}
A family reunion
Family reunion
{It’s so nice to come together} To come together
{To get together}
I wish grandma could see
The whole family
I sure miss her face
And her warm and tender embrace
And if grandpa was here
I know he’d be smiling for me a tear
To see what he has done
All the offsprings from his daughters and sons

You know the family is the solution to the world’s problems today
Now let’s take a look at the family
In the family the father is like the head, the leader, the director
Not domineering, but showing love, guidance
For everyone else in the family
Now if we could get all the fathers of the world
To stand up and be fathers
That would be great
Then we have mothers
Who are the right arm of the father
There’s supposed to-to-to do the cooking
Raise the children, do the sewing
And help the father to guide and direct
Then there’s the son
The son, most sons are like imitators of their father
So we’re back again to the father
And he is guiding in the right way
The son is definitely gonna be alright
Then we have the daughter
Watching her mother
Be-because sooner or later she’s gonna be a mother
And she’ll have her own sons and daughters
It don’t, it don’t just stop there with the family or
Of-of yours or mine
It’s a universal family
Under one divine purpose
And one divine father
That is if we all come together no matter what color, race, creed
Because that’s all in the head whether you wanna believe it or not
‘Cause you’ll bleed
Hoo...
Family, family reunion

You know, me and my woman
We’ve been goin’ through a lot of changes for about six months or so
It’s been real hard to talk to one another
You know a relationship ain’t nothin’ without communication
How we were lying in the bed
The both of us lookin’ at the ceiling overhead
Eyes wide open, about 3 O'Clock in the mornin’
I said, “Baby, we can’t go on this way”
She said, “You’re right”
I said, “I know you love me and I love you”
Then we start holding each other
I felt a tear roll down my face
Last night me and my woman
We cried, cried together
Said we cried {Cry}, cried {Cry}, cried {Cry}
We cried together (Oh...oh...oh...)
Ain’t nothin’ wrong with you, no
There ain’t nothin’ wrong with me, uh-uh
We’re not the only people in the world
Who go through ups and downs
All we have to do is talk
We can work it out
Oh...oh...let me kiss you eyes
Let me wipe your tears away
Let me hold you tight
Tomorrow we’ll feel better ‘cause it’s a brand new day
Oh, last night me and my woman
We cried together
Said we cried {Cry}, cried {Cry}, cried {Cry}, cried
We cried together (Oh...oh...oh...)
Now we had ties when we laughed hearty
We’d even go out on the town and we’d party, party, party
Every day the sun doesn’t shine
Sometimes it has to rain
Just like we enjoy the pleasure
We have to stand the pain
Oh, let me kiss you eyes
Let me wipe the tears away
Oh, let me hold you tight
Let’s talk to each other, I wanna hear what you got to say
Oh...last night, sweet last night me and my woman
We cried together
Said we cried {Cry}, cried {Cry}, cried {Cry}
We cried together, together
And then we and then we and then we and then we made love [Love, love]
{Ooh...ooh...ooh...}
Love like we never made love before
You know we stopped huggin’ each other
And kissin’ {Cry, cry together} and I wipe the tears from my face
And there was love all over the place {Cry, cry together}
Said we cry {Cry, cry together}
There’s nothin’ wrong with you {Cry, cry together}
And there ain’t nothin’ wrong with me {Cry, cry together}
We’re not the only people in the world who go through ups and downs
Christmas just ain't Christmas,
Without the one you love,
New Years just ain't New Years,
Without the one you love.
Underneath the mistletoe,
I saw a face all aglow,
Last year this time,
Now I'm staying home alone,
And my house is not a home,
Without that girl of mine.
Christmas just ain't Christmas,
Without the one you love,
And New Years just ain't New Years,
Without the one you love.
Twelve o'clock and all is well,
And I was doing oh so swell,
Last year, this time,
Goin' shopping with friends together,
Making vows to leave each other, never,
It was a waste of time.
Christmas just ain't Christmas,
Without the one you love,
New Years just ain't New Years,
Without the one you love.
Christmas just ain't Christmas,
Without the one you love,
New Years just ain't New Years,
Without the one you love.
Christmas just ain't Christmas,
Without the one you love,
New Years just ain't New Years,
Sittin' by the open fire place in my favorite dungarees
Played a few balls of a melody and it sounded sweet to me
I thought I get up and take a look around but my feet got in the way
Stumbled to the floor she was right in the door, I could see her face
But how could it be, she ran away from me
My best friend's gone, I'm so all alone
I kinda miss you Brandy, I'm so all alone
When are you coming back home?
I really miss you Brandy, missing you everyday
Are you coming home to stay?
'Cause I love you Brandy, oh yeah yeah yeah
Sippin' on a cherry soda pop, building houses made of sand
Like a little child with a fantasy, just a fraction of a man
But I was in love when they put it down
Oh, my doorstep in the rain
I could feel the love coming to my heart, through my window pane
But how could I know, she was just up and gone
My best friend gone, I'm so all alone
I really miss you Brandy, I'm so all alone
When are you coming back home?
I really miss you Brandy, missing you everyday
Are you coming home to stay?
I kinda miss you Brandy
When are you coming back home? I'm so all alone
I really miss you Brandy, missing you everyday
Are you coming home to stay?
Oh, I really miss you Brandy, I'm so all alone
When are you coming back home?
Oh, I really miss you Brandy, missing you everyday
Are you coming home to stay?
I really miss you Brandy
When are you coming back home? I'm so all alone

Blades are long clenched
tight in their fist
Aimin' straight at your back

All the time they want

The back stabbers

I keep gettin'
all these visits
from my friends, yeah,
(What they doing to me)
They come to my house
again and again and
again and again, yeah
So are they there to see my woman?
I don't even be home
but they just keep on comin'
What can I do to get
on the right track?
I wish they'd take some
of these knives off my back
(What they do)
(They smile in your face)
All the time they want
to take your place
The back stabbers
(back stabbers)
Low down... dirty...
(What they do!)
(They smile in your face)
Smiling faces
smiling faces sometimes
(Back stabbers)
(They smile in your face)
I don't need
low down, dirty bastards
(Back stabbers)
Ever since the first time I saw you
I knew that it had to be me and you
Me for you

If you were my baby
I would give you everything
And if I owned the world, girl

It will be me and you
We can raise a family
A girl for you, a boy for me

992, quit just a-fighting
992, I`m sick of you
I can`t even go down to the corner
To get myself a cold, cold beer
Cause when I come back to the house
Your mouth is the only thing I`m gonna hear
It`s a shame
All this fussing and fighting we`re doing
Don`t you know that it`s got to stop
Don`t make sense to go on this way
Our love affair is a total flop
(CHORUS)
I don`t want to leave you
But I gotta tell you just how it is

Life is too short to live in this arena
There`s so much that has to give
Maybe we just weren`t meant for each other
You know, we might have made a big mistake
But two people understand one another
Tell me, how long does it take
(CHORUS)
Maybe we just weren`t meant for each other
You know, we might have made a big mistake
But two people understand one another
Tell me, how long does it take
