Friday night, every thing's right for the weekend
Crazy clothes, anything goes on the weekend
John called Ann and Jim got Sue
I made a date with little ol' you
Out we went to make a big ten on the weekend
Boy, it's great just a stayin' out late on the weekend
Know a spot, I like it a lot, on the weekend
Took the road to Look-out hill
The view up there is sure a thrill
What a night to hold you tight on the weekend
There we were just sittin' cool and cosy
Just about to steal a little kiss
The police with a flashlight rightfully nosy
Said, holy mackerel, what is all this?
Car top down, just ridin' around on the weekend
Took a chance on crashin' a dance on the weekend
We were almost inside the place
Somebody slammed the door in my face
Hey you guys, you gotta wear ties on the weekend
No harm done, just a havin' some fun on the weekend

When grass begins to look a little greener
And Elvis makes you swoon 'cause he's the rage
And when you start to blush
At the things you once called mush
That's the tender age
When boys begin to act a little nicer
And your diary is filled on every page
As everybody knows, when you cry at movie shows
That's the tender age
And when you think your folks don't understand you
Sometimes you wonder how you have survived
When you believe the lines the boys all hand you
Baby you've arrived
When you begin to use exotic perfume
And dream of someday starring on the stage
When you start yearning for
A new face who lives next door
That's the tender age
When grass begins to look a little greener
And Elvis makes you swoon 'cause he's the rage
And when you start to blush
At the things you once called mush
That's the tender age

C'mon everybody, let's do the scream
Sharon do the twist, do that fish Mary-Lou
Well Sheila do the pony and everybody scream
Peggy-Sue do the slop, Lucille do the bop
Donna-Donna do the dive, well everybody scream
It's something that has started way out in L.A.
It keeps on movin' through the U.S.A.
They do it down in Tennessee, on bandstands too
In Paris and in London and in Honolulu
Mary-Jane mashed patatoes
Now what you see is the locomotion
The hully-gully and the popeye, now everybody scream
And everybody scream
In New York City and in Boston too
Well it's the proper thing to do
In Detroit, Chicago and in Cleveland too
Well everybody's doin' it so why don't you
Pittsburg, New Orleans, Dallas, Portland

Hey the people are worried in every town
Why their main street mama's hangin' around
They followed me back to Tennessee
They picked up on my rock 'n' roll beat, yeah
Hey the pied-pied piper sings his song
Now all of you chicks better move along
Get some life, oh baby, in your bones
Tennessee, well I'm a-bringin' 'em home
Hey we know that the old folks hang too low
To get out here and do the rock 'n' roll
They're just a little stubborn, settin' their way
But they're a-gonna dig this beat some day
Hey the pied-pied piper's ramblin' 'round
Cleanin' them chicks out of every town
And man them chicks are diggin' that sound

You have gone and yet I'm still your prisoner
Although you' re with your new love, I'm not free
For you have placed a lock around my heart dear
And you are the keeper of the key
Love locked inside like mine burns constantly
So darling please come back to me
We'll lock our hearts together for a lifetime
And God will be the keeper of the key
Only you can break the chains that bind me
You alone can end my misery
No-one else can dry the tears that blind me
For you are the keeper of the key
Love locked inside like mine burns constantly
So darling please come back to me
We'll lock our hearts together for a lifetime

You tell me that you love me, I know that it is lied
But I keep right on believin' in a fool's paradise
I make believe, baby-baby, I make believe, baby-baby
Make believin's easy in a fool's paradise
Everybody's askin', what can the trouble be
Well it seems that they all want it baby
Not half as much as me
I make believe, baby-baby, I make believe, baby-baby
Make believin's easy in a fool's paradise
(Let's rock it! Oh, I'm so lonely I could cry)
Keep right on a-tryin' to leave this place I'm in
But then you smiled at someone else
And I'm knocked back yet again
I make believe, baby-baby, I make believe, baby-baby
Make believin's easy in a fool's paradise

You see that girlie in the yellow sweater
Her cheeks are roses and her lips are mellow
That's a-my girl and her name is Fontella
Oh-oh, Fontella is the girl for me
I says a-oh Fontella, well Fontella
I says a-oh Fontella, you know Fontella
Fontella is the girl for me
She loves me more when I hold her tight
She wants to kiss me with all her might
Oh Fontella, won't you be my wife
Oh-yeah pretty baby I'll treat you right
I says a-oh Fontella, well Fontella
I says a-oh Fontella, you know Fontella
Fontella is the girl for me
I'm tellin' you gal, she's a mighty fine
I just can't get her off of my mind
When she goes struttin' down the street

Some people say a man is made outta mud
A poor man's made outta muscle and blood
Muscle and blood and skin and bones
A mind that's weak and a back that's strong
[Chorus]
You load sixteen tons, what do you get?
Another day older and deeper in debt
Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go
I owe my soul to the company store
I was born one mornin' when the sun didn't shine
I picked up my shovel and I walked to the mine
I loaded sixteen tons of number nine coal
And the straw boss said "Well, bless my soul"
I was born one mornin', it was drizzlin' rain
Fightin' and trouble are my middle name
I was raised in the canebrake by an ol' mama lion
And no high-toned woman make me walk the line
If you see me comin', better step aside
A lotta men didn't and a lotta men died
One fist of iron, the other of steel

My guitar, my guitar...
Tell of the hearts that this vagabond has broken
Tell of the fun that I've had
Tell of the lovin' and the laughin' and the jokin'
Back when I was glad, Lord-Lord, back when I was glad
Tell it pretty, guitar
Tell of the days when the riverboat was turnin'
Lord, what a gambler's spree
Tell her of the hotty way ol' lady luck was burnin'
Everyone but me, yeah lucky me, everyone but me
Now, guitar
Tell of the time when I took my biggest gamble
In a game where hearts were high
Tell of the funny way my heart began to ramble
When she caught my eye, yeah when she caught my eye
Tell it pretty, guitar
Tell all the folks that this life's a game of poker
A fool and gold must part
But in this hectic world the biggest fool's the joker
Who gambles with his heart, Lord-Lord, who gambles with his heart
One last time guitar

Way down in the country where the cotton really grows
Lives a little country boy with rhythm in his soul
He learned the hully gully and he learned it fine
He had the cottonpickin' women just a-standin' in a line
Doin' the hully gully, that's what they say, everyday
In the water near the beach where the people love to go
Lived a man-eatin' shark name of Nagatoyo
He saw the people hully gully left to right
He swam back to the ocean 'cause he lost his appetite
They did the hully gully, that's what they say, everyday
Way out in the desert where the hazard wind blows
Lived a cross-eyed camel with prickles on his nose
He learned the hully gully, learned to shake it fine
He had a hot pack of camels just a los in' their mind
Doin' the hully gully, that's what they say, everyday

You're going away, away from me
But here in my heart is the memory of
The way we danced the way we kissed
The way we fell in love
Oh, the little secrets that we shared
When I was sad the way you cared
You let me know you understand
The way you hold my hand
Cherished memories
The things a fellow can't forget
Cherished memories
I'm leaving but I love you yet
Now you say that we must part
And even though it breaks my heart
There's one thing you can't take from me

Butterscotch candy and strawberry pie
Gonna love my baby till the day that I die
'Cause of butterscotch candy and strawberry pie
Well I met my baby in a goodies shop
Sellin' butterscotch candy and soda pop and strawberry pie
Now I said, pretty baby I love your eyes
But in the back of my mind were those strawberry pies
So I said, pretty baby won't you please be mine
Butterscotch candy and strawberry pie
Gonna love my baby till the day that I die
'Cause of butterscotch candy and strawberry pie
Now she said yes and we were wed
In a butterscotch church on a strawberry bed
In the middle of May on the sunniest day of all
Now I'll eat my fill of strawberry pie
And butterscotch candy till the day that I die

I did my baby wrong
Left her all alone
Maybe she'll forgive me
Now that I've come home
I stand here knockin' on her front door
Big door open wide
Won't you let me in
My love's on the other side
Oh yes, let me in
Big door you stand too high between us
Can't get under, can't get over
Big door swing open, I still love her
I never should have left her
Her love was always true
Maybe she'll forgive me
Oh, what will I do
'Cause she won't answer her frontdoor
Big door open wide
Won't you let me in
My love's on the other side
Oh yes, let me in
Big door you're keepin' us apart
Can't get under, can't get over
Big door swing open, I still love her
Oh, big door swing open, I still love her

Believe me, this is my first affair
Handle my heart with care
Gee, how I love you
So, help me
You know the way I feel
Say this romance is real
Gee, how I love you
I love the way you kiss goodnight
The way you hold me tight
I swear by all the stars above
You are my only love
So, help me
You know the way I feel
Say this romance is real
Gee, how I love you
I love the way you kiss goodnight
The way you hold me tight
I swear by all the stars above
You are my only love
So, help me
You know the way I feel
Say this romance is real

Baby please don't go, baby please don't go
Baby please don't go, I love you so, baby please don't go
You got dimples in your jaw
You got dimples in your jaw
You got dimples in your jaw
And that ain't all, baby please don't go
I love you baby, I always will
You make the world go 'round and my heart stand still
I love you baby, you're so fine
C'mon little girl say you're gonna be mine
Hey-hey, little girl (hey, little girl)
Hey-hey, little girl (hey, little girl)
Oooooh (hey, little girl)
Hey-hey, little girl (hey, little girl)
Hey-hey, little girl (hey-hey, little girl)

(Ah, pretty girl - ah, pretty girl)
Just you and me, pretty girl
No one's gonna see, pretty girl
Well I feel so good when you hold me tight
So let's make love till the broad daylight
'Cause I love you, mmm, pretty girl
Don't you be so tame, pretty girl
You drive me insane, pretty girl
Everytime your lips meet mine
A funny chill runs up my spine
'Cause I love you, mmm, pretty girl
Come on let me hold you, let me squeeze you tight
Let my arms unfold you, you're mine tonight
Just you and me, pretty girl
No one's gonna see, pretty girl
Well I feel so good when you hold me tight
So let's make love till the broad daylight

There must be a million (there must be a million)
Teardrops falling down (they're falling down)
Yes, there must be a million (yes, there's one million)
I'll forget somehow (I'll forget somehow)
How long I am crying, still I'm yours to commend
Take this love that I give you, here's my heart in my hand
Alone, alone I am crying (Oh, how I cry)
I am yours to commend (I'm yours to commend)
Take this love that I give you (my, my love I give you)

Well, way back in Carolina, way back in the hills
Lived my ol' pappy and we had us a still
Well we brewed white lightning till the sun went down
I'd fill him a jug and he'd pass it around
Mighty, mighty pleasin', my daddy's gone squeezin'
Sssh mercy, white lightning
Oh the G-men, T-men and revenuers too
Searchin' for the place where he made his brew
They were lookin' tryin' to book him
But my daddy kept on cookin', pprrrsss, white lightning
Well my mammy asked pappy what he'd call his brew
White lightning 'stead of mountain dew
I took a little sip and right away I knew
As my eyes boged out and my face turned blue
Well mighty, mighty flashin'
My daddy started clashin', white lightning

Hey mama don't you do me wrong
Come and love your daddy all night long
Oh yes ma'm, you don't do right, don't do right, yeah-yeah
Tell your mama, tell your pa
Gonna send you back to Arkansas
Oh yes ma'm, you don't do right, don't do right, yeah-yeah
See the gal with the diamond ring
She really knows how to shake that thing
Oh yes ma'm, yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah, oh—oh-oh
Wow! See tha gal with the red dress on
She can do the boogie woogie all night long
Oh yes ma'm, what'd I say, what'd I say, yeah-yeah
Tell me what'd I say, tell me what'd I say
Tell me what'd I say, tell me what'd I say
Tell me what'd I say, yeah-yeah

Yes I need you darling, to tell my troubles to
I know you'll understand me, when I'm feelin' blue
Just give me an opportunity, give me an opportunity
Give me an opportunity to prove my love is true
Honey, I was a stranger till you found me
The way you got me crying over you
Baby, you kiss me and you hug me
If you'd only say you love me, like I love you
Give me an opportunity, give me an opportunity
Give me an opportunity to prove my love is true, true
Yes I need you darling, I swear by heaven above
I need you here beside me, it's you I'm dreaming of
Just give me an opportunity, give me an opportunity

Gonna tell aunt Mary 'bout uncle John
Claims he got the misery, but he had a lot of fun
Oh baby, yeah baby, ooh baby, havin' me some fun tonight
Well long tall Sally, she builds up speed
She got everything uncle John need
Oh baby, yeah baby, ooh baby, havin' me some fun tonight
Well I saw uncle John with the bold headed Sally
He saw aunt Mary comm ' and he jumped back in the alley
Oh baby, yeah baby, ooh baby, havin' me some fun tonight
Well, let's go have some fun tonight
Ooh, gonna have fun tonight
Gonna have me some fun tonight
Everything's all right
Have me some fun, have me some fun tonight

Lonely (lonely), lonely (lonely)
Lonely is the man, who walks alone
And lonely is the man, who has no home
And lonely, lonely, lonely am I
I am so lonely, wish I could die (lonely)
I asked the Lord up above (lonely)
What is this thing, mortals call love
And why can't I have one of my own
I am so lonely, so all alone
Lonely is the bird, without a tree
And lonely is the sailor, without the sea
I asked the Lord up above (lonely)
What is this thing, mortals call love
And why can't I have one of my own
I am so lonely, so all alone

Well she gets up in the morning
With the roosters and the hens
Get ready for school before the class begins
Oh little Lou, can I walk to school with you
The bells are ringin', if we are late what shall we do
Well if the teachers in the classroom ask us why we been
Late today, oh, it is late again
Oh little Lou, why did you make me hesitate
You know the teacher will say
There's no excuse for bein' late
Well the lunchbell's a-ringin' and it's time for us to eat
The dean keeps us shovin', all this steppin' on my feet
Oh little Lou, I'll save a place in line for you
Now that luch has passed, can I walk you back to class
Well the last class is over and I'm standing all alone
A football star walks my little Lou home
Oh little Lou, child this is more than I can bear

Deep in my heart there's a fear
And in my eyes you'll find a tear
I'm scared that I'm losing you
That's why I cry
If I should lose you, little angel, I'd die
Oh, little angel, I'd die
Oh-oh, I had a dream and you were gone
Without your love, I was alone
So don't ever leave me and don't say goodbye
If I should lose you, little angel, I'd die
Oh, little angel, I'd die
Deep in my heart, I have to know
Your love is true, don't ever go
So tell me I'm crazy to worry 'bout you
Tell me that your love, little angel, is true
Oh, that your love is true

I'm gonna buy some love charms to get you in my arms
I'm gonna buy some love charms to get you in my arms
Everytime I'm wavin' in a-your direction
I'm gonna win your love and effection
I'd like to bet ya, I'm gonna get ya with my love charms
The first charm's gonna be a heart
A heart that won't be broken
The next charm's gonna be a love seat
Where sweet words can be spoken
The third charm must be a pair of lips
That's only meant for me
The fourth charm's gonna be the month and day
When the wedding day will be
The fifth charm's gonna be a bar of steel
To keep our loving strong
The sixth charm's gonna be a little white dove
To make peace when things go wrong
The seventh charm's gonna be a good luck charm
To last our lifetime through
String 'em on a bracelet and a one, two, three

Yeah you told me you'd meet me at a movie show
I waited and I waited but I had to go
You're not the only girl in town
I won't stand for your foolin' around
Oh-no, ah-ah, I don't like you no more
Well we went to a party last Saturday night
Thought that everything would be all right
But you had to go and put me down
I just won't stand for your foolin' around
Oh-no, ah—ah, I don't dig you no more
Remember baby, when we first met
You said you'd be my by in' pet
Then you turned around just like that
You're treatin' Eddie like a worn-out hat
You're a two-time lover and a full-time flirt
You ain't nothin' but a schemer in a very tight skirt
But I'm gonna go and do the town
I won't stand for your foolin' around
Oh-no, ah-ah, I don't dig you no more

Well when I lost my baby
I almost lost my mind
Well when I lost my baby
I almost lost my mind
Oh well my head is in a spin
Since she left me behind
Oh well I passed a billion people
Can't tell who I meet
Oh well I passed a billion people
Well I can't tell who I meet
'Cause my eyes are full of tears
Where can my baby be
Oh well I went to see a gipsy
Oh well I had my fortune read
Oh well I went to see a gipsy
And had my fortune read
Oh well I hung my head in sorrow
When she said what she said
Oh well I can tell you people
The news was not so good
Oh well I can tell you people
The news was not so good
Well she said you're baby's quitin'
This time she's gone for good

My friend and I was partyin' at the edge of town
I saw a pretty little girl that looked up and down
I said girl how'd ya do, I'd like to know
Oh how'd ya do, oh how'd ya do
Well my friend he told me I didn't have a chance
But I knew this chick was a-ready to romance
I said well how'd ya do, come dance with me
Oh how'd ya do, come dance with me
Well we got acquainted and we went outside
We got in my car and we went for a ride
I said well how'd ya do with a big embrace
A big embrace, she slapped my face
Well my friend was waitin' at the dance for me
I turned my face so he couldn't see
He said well how'd ya do, you're back alone
Oh how'd ya do, I took her home
And you were right, we had a fight
That's all right, I did what's right
That's all tonight

I'm gonna call my friends and get 'em here right away
Well now there's Bud & Joe & Jim & John & Hank & also Ray
Oh the weekend's here, looks like a swingin' day
The surf is up and were leavin' right away
Well we jumped in the woody, it's ten after ten
Well a-hooray, I said a-hooray, hooray for week-end
Well a-here we are but it's dowdy and it's grey
The surf is down man, it's not so good today
Oh the day is young, look overthere; thataway!
Our band is here and they're just about to play
Now we danced all day till sundown set in
Well a-hooray, I said a-hooray, hooray for week—end
The day is over and we'll soon be on our way
We'll wait till tomorrow, for it's another day
Our boards need wax, but look overthere; thataway!
The band is back and they're just about to play
We kicked off our shoes and stomped around once again
Well a-hooray, I said a-hooray, hooray for week-end

Oh baby let's play some hide and go seek
Seen an alligator go jumpin' in the river
Singin' a song about five, ten, fifteen, twenty
Twenty-five, thirty, thirty-five, fourty, fourty-five
Fifty, fifty-five, sixty, sixty-five, seventy, seventy-five
Eighty, eighty-five, ninety, ninety-five, a hundred
I ain't gonna count but one more time
And that's gonna be when the sun goes down
I say last night and the night before
Twenty—four hours knock in' on the door
I ran upstairs to get my gun
And when I got back the robbers had run
Didn't go east, didn't go west
They must have run back to the robbers' nest
Oh, I'm gonna catch you this time honey
I ain't gonna count but one more time
I'm gonna get you sweetie pie
I'm gonna catch you, yes I'll do
Please don't let me search for you
I say last night and the night before
Twenty-four hours knockin' on the door
I ran upstairs to get my gun
And when I got back the robbers had run
Didn't go east, didn't go west
They must have run back to the robbers' nest

Hey diddle diddle, the cow and the fiddle
I'll jump over the moon
Look overthere, what a sight
He's run away with the spoon
Hey diddle diddle, ask me a riddle
Who could love you more than I
Hoot that horn, he's real gone
Hey diddle diddle he's eatin' his Christmas pie
He's ballin' fast, he's ballin' slow
Hey diddle diddle, watch that man and go
Like Jack and Jill, goin' up the hill
Humpty dumpty sittin' on the wall
I'm gonna fall, off that wall
Hey diddle diddle, will you love me best of all

I had a heartache, I cried a tear
There was a girl I met, she doesn't care
Oh bad baby doll what's wrong with you
Why did you leave this way
When you tore the love we shared I cried
When you told me that you love me, oh you lied
Well I'm findin' out again, into love I shouldn't fall
Oh why-why-why, oh my baby doll
Sometimes I sit around, I'm feelin' all alone
I try to call you but you won't pick up that phone
Ooh bad baby doll look what you do, I can't go on this way
Why can't we get together to explain
Just why I've left you standin' in the rain
Well I'm findin' out again, into love I shouldn't fall

Baby please don't go, baby please don't go
Baby please don't go, I love you so, baby please don't go
You got dimples in your jaw
You got dimples in your jaw
You got dimples in your jaw
And that ain't all, baby please don't go
I love you baby, I always will
You make the world go 'round and my heart stand still
I love you baby, you're so fine
C'mon little girl say you're gonna be mine
Hey-hey, little girl (hey, little girl)
Hey-hey, little girl (hey, little girl)
Oooooh (hey, little girl)
Hey-hey, little girl (hey, little girl)
Hey-hey, little girl (hey-hey, little girl)
Baby please don't go (ah, don't go honey)

Well am I blue, am I blue
Ain't these tears in my eyes tellin' you
Well am I blue, you'd be too
If your pal says your gal's done with you
There was a time, I was the only one
But now I'm the sad and lonely one, oh dear
Well was I gay, I should say
Now she's gone and we're through, am I blue

Always late with your kisses
Won't you come to my arms sweet darling and stay
Always late with your kisses
Why-why-why do you want to do me this way (do me this way)
How long do you think I can wait
When you know you're always late (always late)
Always late with your kisses

My heart was a playground where you played about
When you got through playin' you just walked out
I thought when you left me, that I'd lose my mind
But now I've forgotten with a healer like time
They said I'd forget you, I thought they were wrong
I thought for a lifetime, my love would be strong
But now I've forgotten and you're out of my mind
Oh I'm so thankful for a healer like time
I used to remember the dreams that we knew
When your life was my life, your thoughts were mine too
But since we have parted, I've forgotten by far

I'm a-gonna raise a fuss, I'm a-gonna raise a holler
About a-workin' all summer just to try to earn a dollar
Well one time I called my baby, tried to get a date
My boss says, no dice son, you gotta work late
Sometimes I wonder, what I'm a—gonna do
But there ain't no cure for the summertime blues
Oh well my main and papa told me
Son you gotta make some money
If you wanna use the car to go ridin' next sunday
Well I didn't go to work, told the boss I was sick
Now you can't use the car 'cause you didn't work a-late
Sometimes I wonder, what I'm a-gonna do
But there ain't no cure for the summertime blues
I'm gonna take two weeks, gonna have a fine vacation
I'm gonna take my problem to the United Nations
Well I called my congresman and he said quote
I'd like to help you son, but you're too young to vote
Sometimes I wonder, what I'm a-gonna do
But there ain't no cure for the summertime blues

Well, I know a guy who's bone and skin
Women, they've been ravin' 'bout Skinny Jim
Skinny Jim, ooh, man, Skinny Jim
Oh, yes yes yes, all the gals love him, Skinny Jim
Well, I went to a party and met Skinny Jim

One more time
Skinny Jim, Skinny Jim, Skinny Jim, Skinny Jim

I'm just a-sittin' in the balcony, just a-watchin' the movie
Or maybe it's a symphony, I wouldn't know
I don't care about the symphonies, just a-cymbals and a-timpanies
I'm just a-sittin' in the balcony, on the very last row
I'll hold your hand and I'll kiss you too
The feature's over, but we're not through
Just a-sittin' in the balcony, holdin' hands in the balcony
Just a-sittin' in the balcony, on the very last row
We may stop lovin' to watch bugs bunny
But he can't take the place of my honey
Just a-sittin' in the balcony, just a-snootchin' in the balcony
Just a-sittin' in the balcony, on the very last row

[E]Well c'mon everybody and let's get together tonight
[E]I got some money in my jeans and I'm really gonna spend it right
Been a-[A]doin' my homework [B]all week long
now the [A]house is empty the [B]folks are gone
[N.C.]Ooo C'mon everybody [E] [A] [B] [A] [E]
Well my baby's number one but I'm gonna dance with three or four
And the house'll be shakin' from my bare feet slapping the floor
When you hear that music you can't sit still
If your brother won't rock then your sister will
Ooo C'mon everybody
Well we'll really have a party but we gotta put a guard outside
If the folks come home I'm afraid they gonna have my hide
There'll be no more movies for a week or two
No more runnin' 'round with the usual crew
Who cares C'mon everybody

Well, Jeanie, Jeanie, Jeanie, come & dance with me
I'll a-teach you every dance from way across the sea
CHORUS:
Yeah, first we'll hop
Yeah yeah yeah, then we'll bop
Yeah yeah yeah, then we'll stop
Then rock & roll, we'll do the stroll
Well, Jeanie, Jeanie, Jeanie, got my blue suede shoes
My pink carnation & my black slacks too
(Chorus)
BRIDGE:
Well, baby, baby, you won't have to wait
I'll be ready at 8
I keep a-knockin' at your front door
All the cats are hoppin' at the big 5-4
Jeanie, Jeanie, Jeanie, when we reach the hall
We'll rock around the clock & really have a ball
(Chorus)
(Instrumental)

I went down town last night, gonna dig a show
When I passed a display window of a big department store
Well I looked inside this window
Man, all filled up with racks
And down there near the bottom was a crazy pair of slacks
I gotta have 'em, yeah-well I need 'em for this cat
Well-well yeah how can I go cattin'
Without crazy pink peg slacks
Well I walked up to a salesman, I said mister I'm flat broke
But I gotta have them pink slacks
He said, man is this a joke?
Well I asked him how much money
He said, add up four and eight
He said, man them pants is crazy
Them's pink, rayon acetate
I gotta have 'em, yeah-well I need 'em for this cat
Well-yeah how can I go cattin' without crazy pink peg slacks
Well I went to see my baby, asked her for some dough
Said well you know I love you honey
What you need this money for?
Well I told her about them peggers, I found across down town
Got a sawbuck from her daddy
Yeah and I turned my Ford around
I gotta have 'em, yeah-well I need 'em for this cat
Well-yeah how can I go cattin' without crazy pink peg slacks
I saved my Ford into a stop, rushed into the store
I said man I got a sawbuck, he said you need two bucks more
I said, man can' t I charge it?
He said, man we don't get these things for free
I said, mister you just don't realize

I'm a havin' a nervous breakdown
A mental shakedown
I see my hands how they shiver
See my knees how they quiver
My whole body's in a jitter
I'm a havin' a nervous breakdown
Well, I went to see my doctor just the other day
And I'm got to tell you what the man had to say
Well, he said, "Hey boy, you just gotta slow down
You can't keep a traipsin' all over town
After givin' you a physical check
I've come to the conclusion you're a total wreck"
I'm a havin' a nervous breakdown
A mental shakedown
I see my hands how they shiver
See my knees how they quiver
My whole body's in a jitter
I'm a havin' a nervous breakdown
I've made up my mind, I'd better change my ways
My shattered nerves have seen better days
Well, no more girls for a week or two
No more runnin' 'round with the usual crew
No more movies or stayin' out late
My baby, have to find herself another date
I'm a havin' a nervous breakdown
A mental shakedown
I see my hands how they shiver
See my knees, how they quiver
My whole body's in a jitter

As I stood at the doorstep of romance
You told me that we're through
Then you threw your lovin' arms around me
And you gave me, yeah-yeah, you gave me
Oh-oh gave me, peace of mind, yeah
Peace of mind, you gave me
Peace of mind, you gave me
Peace of mind, oh-oh you gave-gave me
You gave me, yeah-yeah, you gave me

Well, lovely Loretta, look into my eyes
Lovely Loretta, look into my eyes
Lovely Loretta, man you're a real prize
Oh, lovely Loretta, she' sweet
Oh, lovely Loretta, she' sweet
Oh, lovely Loretta, she' sweet
Oh, lovely Loretta, she' sweet

It's me, it's me my darling, you know I've been away
I've been away a long-long while
Longin' to see your pretty smile
Darling yes oh darling, you're the one, the one
Oh darling, you're the one
'Cause my heart beats but there's no glow
Won't you say you love me, so I'll know, I'll know
Love me, so I'll know
It's me, it's me my darling, you know I've been away
All day I think my heart's alone
Don't you know I want you for my own, my own
Want you for my own
Well, darling yes oh darling, the time has come to part
I'll be gone a long-long while
I want to see your pretty smile
Darling yes oh darling, you're my heart, my heart
Darling you're my heart
'Cause my heart beats but there' s no glow
Won't you say you love me, so I'll know, I'll know
Love me, so I'll know
Love me, so I'll know

(Love is made of this, love is made of this)
You touched me and I know love that's undyin'
No need denyin', love is made of this
Your lips and my lips together in one kiss
You are my happiness, love is made of this
You're what I long for, you're what I pray for
To make my life complete
So darling take me, oh darling make me
As you would have me to be
Your hand and my hand, together we will stand

I owe you a million kisses, I owe you a million hugs
Well I took 'em last night when the lights were low
I wanna give 'em back so here I go, I-I owe you
I've savin' my lovin' for somebody like you
Enough of this turtle-dovin', I'll tell you what I'm gonna do
I owe you a million squeezes, I owe you a million sighs
Won't you say yes then you'll be my own

You're the reason I don't sleep at night
I just lay here at night, toss and I turn
Lovin' you so, how my heart yearns
You're the reason I don't sleep at night
Walkin' the floor, feelin' so blue
Smoke cigarettes and drink coffee too
You're the reason I don't sleep at night
I'm bettin' you're not losin' sleep over me
But if I'm wrong, don't fail to call
Come over and keep me company
Sometimes I go for walk, take a look at the moon
Strum my guitar and sing out a tune
Honey, you're the reason I don't sleep at night

Yesterday's heartbreak, brings tomorrow's tears
A laugh of remembering, to live through the years
Yesterday's heartbreak, a love from the past
I lost you forever, your love is my last
Well alone, alone, my heart left to wonder
Alone, alone, my lonely heart does ponder
Oh-oh-oh-yes, yesterday's heartbreak, your love to be lost
I gave my love freely, now I pay the cost
Yesterday's heartbreak, a love from the past
Well I lost you forever, your love is my last

Each day you say tomorrow you'll ask him to set you free
You promised you would tell him, you want to marry me
You want him, you want me and yet you want your fun
Today will pass like yesterday and tomorrow will never come
Darling your tomorrows is just your excuse to me
'Cause you will never tell him that you're in love with me
You lied to him, you lied to me, a week is almost done
Today will pass like yesterday and tomorrow will never come
Tomorrow is your promise as each day is almost done
You know you'll never keep it
'Cause tomorrow will never come
You cheat on him, you cheat on me, you're the selfish one
Today will pass like yesterday and tomorrow will never come

I'm gonna stomp you on the top of your foot
And hang you from a big long fishing hook
And drop you plunge to the bottom of the sea, hey-hey
Let the sharks eat you all up
If them mean old whales don't interrupt
Cos baby you know how you been torturing little ol' me
Hey-hey
I'm the judge, the jury too
Judgement has been brought upon you
You been convicted for the crime you've done
You made me feel like a little ol' crumb
You know it's wrong to torture me
You love my friends the same way you love me
And like Tom,I don't wanna hang from a big oak tree over you
When I say hop, I mean make like a frog
And when I say bark, you better sound like a dog
Cos I'm gonna torture you
The same way you been torturing little ol' me, hey-hey
Stop torturing me baby

Oh I was walkin' down the street one day
I met a pretty little girl on the way
Baby-baby-baby-baby-baby
Oh you' re way—way-way out far
You're great-great, you're way, you're way
You're way out far, you're way out far
She didn't hear a word I said
All she did was shake her head
Honey-honey-honey-honey-honey
Oh you're way-way-way out far
You're fine-fine, be mine—mine
You're way out far, a—way out far
Oh this must sound crazy, love does funny-funny tricks
You're different from all the others
With them I was just getting my kicks
Way-way-way-way out far
Oh you're way-way-way out far
I bet your love is real tough
Oh I'll never-never get enough
I'm in love with you baby

I get up in the morning and what do I find
You been talkin' all night on a party line
You better watch your mouth (watch your mouth)
I said watch your mouth (watch your mouth)
Watch your mouth, well did you? What did you say?
Watch your mouth
Always tellin' everybody things I do
Well now you can tel 'em that I'm through with you
You better hear big mama 'cause I want it understood
A loose-lip-woman just ain't no good
Everytime I see you walkin' down the street
Your big mouth is movin' just as fast as your feet
Always talkin' about me I know

Old dancin' Dick with his walkin' stick
Should have seen him when he got off the train
He had all the people standin' in the rain
Doin' the walkin' stick boogie
Watchin' the walkin' stick boogie
He's the fastest man that ever danced into town
He's got the fastest kick, with his walkin' stick
You should see the way that he throws it around
When he dances upside down, doin' the walkin' stick boogie
Doin' the walkin' stick boogie
He's got the people jumpin' just like the fleas on a hound
You should see the way that the chicks get their kicks
When ol' Dick gets to throw his walkin' stick
Doin' the walkin' stick boogie
Doin' the walkin' stick boogie
The joint was so hot
That the boards were flyin' off the floor
The girls all cried, when he said goodbye
They knew that the town would be on the bum
And they couldn't have anymore fun
Doin' the walkin' stick boogie, the walkin' stick boogie

You're the world to me, until eternity
It will always be, undying love
As long as stars will shine, I will call you mine
Till the end of time, undying love
Please don't ever leave me, grieve me, deceive me
Never let me go (never let me go)
Try to understand me, commend me, demand me
I'll always love you so
You're the world to me, until eternity
It will always be, undying love

I saw two lovers walking along the sandy shore
Her tiny hand was locked in his, two hearts beatin' a chord
Two young lovers like you and I
With young love that just won't die
They stopped to pick a pebble, each one must make a wish
They cast them out into the blue and sealed it with a kiss
They stood beneath an elmtree, carved initials in a heart
And pledged to undying love, which only death could part
Two young lovers like you and I
With young love that just won't die

The day outside is warm, the sun is shinin' bright
But since you're gone, the time is wrong
It's a twenty-four hour night
My heart is filled with bloom, my soul has lost it's light
I sit here in my lonely room, it's a twenty-four hour night
My life is an endless torture, cold and bare and black
You know how much I want you
Please, please, please come back
Come back and take my heart, come make this darkness bright
Come back again and please, please end

Ooh, well I got a girl with a record machine
When it comes to rockin' she's the queen
We love to dance on a Saturday night
All alone where I can hold her tight
But she lives on the twentiest floor uptown
The elevator's broken down
So I walked one, two flight, three flight, four
Five, six, seven flight, eight flight, more
Up on the twelfth I started to drag
Fifteenth floor I'm a-ready to sag
Get to the top, I'm too tired to rock
When she calls me up on the telephone
Say, come on over honey, I'm all alone
I said, baby you're mighty sweet
But I'm in bed with the achin' feet
This went on for a couple of days
But I couldn't stay away
Well they sent to Chicago for repairs
Till it's a-fixed I'm a-usin' the stairs
Hope they hurry up before it's too late
Want my baby too much to wait
All this climbin' is a-gettin' me down
They'll find my corpse draped over a rail
But I climbed one, two flight, three flight four

Well I'm a uptown cat, yeah even a crazy pet
Well I'm a ladies man, yes a smooth talkin' dad
I gotta go to bed 'cause I'm tired and sleepy
I can't love you baby 'cause I'm tired and sleepy
Tired and sleepy, ooh baby so tired
I left the house last night, yeah with style and grace
I met a wild-wild woman, yeah I tried to keep the pace
I got a fifty dollar headache, yeah hundred dollar shoes
A big long pink Cadillac and a bad-bad case of blues
Yeah I'm a-waiting for you daddy
Yeah that's what my baby said
But honey I got a passion for my kingsize bed

They have said I'm a fool if I give my heart to you
If it's so, we will know, time will tell
I was one to be where there's danger in the air
If it's so, we will know, time will tell
If they should choose, as time goes by
They can call me a fool
Though I could lose, as time goes by, love is the only rule
So until then, I believe all our love can never leave

Now there are three steps to heaven
Just listen and you will plainly see
And as life travels on
And things do go wrong
Just follow Steps 1, 2 and 3
Step 1: You find a girl you love
Step 2: She falls in love with you
Step 3: You kiss and hold her tightly
Now that sure seems like heaven to me
The formula for heaven's very simple
Just follow the rules and you will see
And as life travels on
And things do wrong
Just follow Steps 1, 2 and 3
Step 1: you find a girl you love
Step 2: she falls in love with you
Step 3: you kiss and hold her tightly
Now that sure seems like heaven to me
Just follow Steps 1, 2 and 3

Well I been thinkin' about you, wonderin' about you
Wonderin' if you miss me too
Well I been thinkin' about you, wonderin' about you
Hopin' that you love me too
I went to see a movie, I was feelin' blue
When I looked at my ticket, I bought seats for two
Well I been thinkin' about you, wonderin' about you
Wonderin' if you miss me too
Well I been thinkin' about you, wonderin' about you
Hopin' that you love me too
I was gettin' hungry, some popcorn would do
When the girl asked me how many, I quickly answered two
Well I been thinkin' about you, wonderin' about you
Wonderin' if you miss me too
Well I been thinkin' about you, wonderin' about you
Hopin' that you love me too
I left the movies early, still feelin' blue
But when I went to bed, I still had on my shoes
'Cause I been thinkin' about you, wonderin' about you
Wonderin' if you miss me too
Well I been thinkin' about you, wonderin' about you

Think of me and miss me, as I'll be missing you
Promise to be true and I'll be true to you
Dream of me and talk to me, though we're far apart
I will hear you dear, hear you in my heart
When you're all alone and you're feelin' blue
Remember that I'm here and I'll be lonely too
And the sun will shine and our love will grow
Oh, time cannot erase a love like ours, I know
So, think of me and miss me, as I'll be missing you
Promise to be true and I'll be true to you

Well it seems I've had a lifetime filled with misery
I remember how it all began
The doctor grabbed my feet, slapped me on the cheek
That's what it takes to make a man
Even as a baby they were pinnin' things on me
Daddy called me mother's little lamb
But you should have seen 'em rave
When I gave the dog a shave
That's what it takes to make a man
They thought I was a genius, when I first went to school
Then I flunked my very first exam
And for all the books I've read
There' s just sawdust in my head
That's what it takes to make a man
Well I finally finished highschool, tried some college too
Then I did a hitch with Uncle Sam
I fought the enemy, sergeants I'll agree
That's what it takes to make a man
Well I went back to my hometown
Where the mayor was my friend
Said he knew a job that I could lend
Well I got that job alright
Cleaned the streets up every night
That's what it takes to make a man
Well I got a new position in a dry good store down town
Bought my gal a golden wedding band
But she up and fled the scene
When it turned her finger green
That's what it takes to make a man
Oh yeah, that's what it takes to make a man

To spend one night with you in our old rendez-vous
And reminis with you, that's my desire
To hear you whisper low, just when it's time to go
Oh, cherry 1 love you so, that's my desire
We'll sip a little glass of wine
I'll gaze into your eyes devine
And feel the touch of your lips pressing on mine
To meet where gipsies play, down in some dim cafe
And dance till break of day, that's my desire

Tell me why the ivy twines
Tell me why the stars do shine
Tell me why the ocean's blue
And I will tell you just why I love you
Because God made the ivy twine
Because God made the stars to shine
Because God made the ocean blue
Because God made you, that's why I love you

Well, she was only a teenage partner
Yeah, she was only a teenage partner
She was only seventeen

Well, she's gone-gone-gone
Ooh, gone-gone-gone
Well, gone-gone-gone
Well, she's gone and she was only seventeen

And a room with my own private phone
I wanna stay up all night, see the big city lights
No more troubles or worries at home
Mm, just gimme some time on my hands
I wanna make my own private plans
Yeah, I want my own Coupe de Ville

Teenage cutie, don't say maybe, you just gotta kiss me tonight

You gotta sit real close, whisper in my ear
You gotta say you care, you be my gal
Baby, I wanna be more than a pal
So teenage cutie, say you love me, please don't tease me
And we'll rock and roll the rest of the night
You gotta cuttle uo and hold me tight

You gotta say you care, you be my gal
Baby, I wanna be more than a pal
So teenage cutie, say you love me, please don't tease me
And we'll rock and roll the rest of the night

Oh-oh, take my hand and walk with me
Oh-oh, I'm so lonely that I don't know what to do
Won't someone take my hand and walk with me
Oh-oh, at night I sleep and in my sleep I weep
For someone to take my hand and walk with me
I know that I will someday find a love
And when I do I will thank the Lord up above
I'm so lonely that I don't know what to do
Won't someone take my hand and walk with me
Take my hand and walk with me

Well she's my sweetie pie and I love her so
Well she's my sweetie pie and I love her so
Well she's the sweetest in the world
And she's my steady girl, 'cause she's my sweetie pie
(Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah)

(Mmm—mmm—mmm—mmm) Sweetie pie

They're really rockin' on bandstands, Philadelphia, P.A.
Deep in the heart of Texas, way down to Frisco bay
All over St.Louis, way down to New orleans
All the cats wanna dance with sweet little sixteen
Sweet little sixteen, got the growin' up blues
Tight dresses and lipstick, sportin' high heel shoes
Oh, but tomorrow morning, she'll have to change her trend
Go back to bein' just sixteen and back in class again

Rough stuff...
Your cheatin' lips taste sweet when they are pressed to mine
Rough stuff
I wish that I could break a leg but you're too fine
You said you love me, but it's plain to see, you're not mine
Rough stuff...
You got me in your spell, I'm just the same to you
Rough stuff...
Why can't you settle down and give a love that's true
I have lost my strut and I cry inside, I'm so blue
Woo-woo-woo, I tried to tame you but it can't be done
Woo-woo-woo-woo, I oughta hate you but I love you
You're the only one, oh rough stuff
You know I couldn't live if we should ever part
Rough stuff
I'm such a fool and you been foolin' from the start

Oh, my baby goes rockin', ooh, rockin' all night
No shoes no stockin's, but that's all right
Well she don't need stockin's and shoes to rock all night
Ooh, stockin's and shoes, stockin's and shoes
Well you don't need stockin's and shoes to dance the blues
Well I love a-my baby, indeed I do
Well I love a-my baby, she loves me too
You oughta see us rock without stockin's and shoes
Ooh, stockin's and shoes, stockin's and shoes
Well you don't need stockin's and shoes to dance the blues
Well the bare feet slappin' on the hardwood floor
These crazy things a-happen, along about four
And the very next night my baby's a-back for more
Ooh, stockin's and shoes, stockin's and shoes
Well you don't need stockin's and shoes to dance the blues
Well I bought my baby some crazy socks
I love my baby, but she don't wear socks
Yeah she kicks her shoes right off and man she rocks
Ooh, stockin's and shoes, stockin's and shoes
Well you don't need stockin's and shoes to dance the blues
Ooh, stockin's and shoes, stockin's and shoes
Stockin's and shoes

A look a-there, here she comes
There comes that girl again
Wanted to date her since I don't know when
But she don't notice me when I pass
She goes with all the guys from outa my class
But that can't stop me from a-thinkin' to myself
She's sure fine lookin' man, she's something else
Hey, look a-there, across the street
There's a car made just for me
To own that car would be a luxery
But my dollar can't afford the gas
A brand new convertible is outa my class
But that can't stop me from a—thinkin' to myself
That car's fine lookin' man, it's something else
Hey, look a—here, just wait and see
Worked hard and saved my dough
I'll buy that car that I been wanting so
Get me that girl and we'll go ridin' around
We'll look real sharp with the flight top down
I keep right on a-dreamin' and a-thinkin' to myself
When it all comes true man, wow, that's something else
Look a-there, what's all this
Never thought I'd do this before
But here I am a-knockin' on her door
My car's out front and it's all mine
Just a forty-one Ford, not a fifty-nine
I got that girl an' I'm a-thinkin' to myself
She's sure fine lookin' man, wow, she's something else

Slowly but surely, though I love you dearly
Slowly but surely I'm losin' you
Soon you'll be leavin', soon I'll be grievin'
Slowly but surely I'm losin' you
I can see it in your eyes, I can feel it in your kiss
But I didn't realise it would all end like this
Slowly but surely, though I love you dearly
Slowly but surely. I'm losin' you
Somebody's takin' my place, I can plainly see
It's written on your face, you're not satisfied with me
Slowly but surely, though I love you dearly

Well you're a fast movin' woman, I'm a slow movin' guy
Yeah I like to crawl baby, you like to fly
You better slow down baby, you better slow down
I gotta admit that you got a lotta class
I said you better watch out which Cadillac you pass
You better slow down baby, you better slow down
'Cause one of these nights, when you speed around town
You gonna pass me baby and I'll turn my damper down
You better slow down baby, you better slow down
(Let's rock it!)
You got a full house motor and it runs real good
Yeah, fine upholstery and a packed-out hood
You better slow down baby, you better slow down
You're the motorvatest gal that I've ever seen
Baby you better slow down or I'm gonna flee the scene
You better slow down baby, you better slow down
Slow down baby you' re way ahead of me

Well I got a girl they call Skinnie Minnie
She may be skinny but she's got plenty
The kind of lovin' that I desire
The kind of love that sets my soul on fire
Skinnie Minnie, man that gal can love
She's long and lean like a stringbean
She don't look good in blue jeans
Her hair hangs down like a rag mop
She makes my heart go flippedy-flop
She can't cook, she ain't much on looks
The things she knows, she didn't read in books
Skinnie Minnie, man that gal can love
When me and Minnie walk down the street
All the boys stop and stare
But if they knew just what I do
You bet your life they'd love her too
Well, when I kiss her out in the dark
I tear the thing up, there's so much spark
Skinnie Minnie, man that gal can love

Serious, serious, seriously in love
Serious, serious, seriously in love
You-mmm-you-you my-my lovely one
Mmm-mm, my only one, as bright as a star
With eyes as true as the ocean blue
That's why I'm serious, well, over you
Oh please, please hold me tight
Don't let me go, not tonight
I see the tears, the cryin'
And I see the lips that try not to say goodbye
And that's why I'm so serious
I'm serious over you
You-ooh-you-you my lovely one
You're my only one, as bright as a star
With eyes true as the ocean blue

See them laugh
Watch them stare (watch them stare)
They always do when I'm with you
See, they say our love will never hold
That you're too young and I'm too old
And just the same. I don't feel blue
'Cause I have you (I-I-I have you)
See them laugh
Why won't they (why won't they)
Give us a chance for our romance
See, although our age is not the same
I love you so, I can't explain
'Cause it don't matter what they say or do

Oh, dancin' all night, so I have my play
But how can I work when I sleep all day
I got those rock 'n' roll blues, those rock 'n' roll blues
I dig way down deep in my ol' blue jeans
To put my last dime in that record machine
I got those rock 'n' roll blues, those rock 'n' roll blues
I have the blues to fight
And to make things worse I fell in love last night
The little girl I found
Said to stop my hoppin' and settle down
Oh why can't there be two of poor o1' me
One on the dancefloor and one hangin' 'round the door
I got those rock 'n' roll blues, those rock 'n' roll blues

Come here pretty baby, yeah you, quick like, quick like
Gotta hold you near me, yeah quick like, quick like
Hop-hop, hurry up gal, yeah quick like, yeah
From the moment that I saw you, you were spinnin' in my brain
Now you got me boilin' over, won't you ease my pain
Come here pretty baby, quick like, quick like
Gotta hold you near me, quick like, quick like
Hop-hop, hurry up, quick like, quick like
I can hardly keep together, you surprise me to the end
Won't you move a little faster, like a real cool frail
Come here pretty baby, quick like, quick like
Gotta hold you near me, quick like, quick like
Hop-hop, hurry up, quick like, quick like
You don't know the way you quake to the most upper tree
If you dig, you move on quick like, start to dig my dream
Come here pretty baby, quick like, quick like
Gotta hold you near me, quick like, quick like

I'm just as proud as I can be
And everytime you're out with me
I'm hopin' everyone will see
'Cause I'm so proud of you
When we go walkin' down the street
I show you off to all we meet
You roll your eyes and look so sweet
I'm just so proud of you
When we go home together after school each night
I don't want no other, you're a doll all right
I'm just so proud when I'm with you
The way you wear that cute hair-do
And when you blush, I love that too

Oh-oh-oh, I never knew such a pretty little devil as you
And I would do just about anything that you wanted me to
I never dreamed I'd meet a girl that's half as sweet
As you turned out to be, now you're getting a hold on me
Oh-oh-oh, I never knew such a pretty little devil as you
And I would do just about anything that you wanted me to
I'll have to play it cool 'cause you're nobody's fool
And hope that I'm just smart enough to win your heart
Oh-oh-oh, I never knew such a pretty little devil as you
And I would do just about anything that you wanted me to
Oh-oh-oh, I never knew such a pretty little devil as you
And I would do just about anything that you wanted me to
Some say you're fast and wild
But with me you're sweet and mild
But I will not complain if you promise to stay the same
Oh-oh-oh, I never knew such a pretty little devil as you
And I would do just about anything that you wanted me to

C'mon let me hold you, want you for keeps
When you say frog this poor boy leaps
Pretty girl, oh, pretty girl
Well I got a lot of money and I need a little honey
Pretty girl, don't you be so tame, well, pretty girl
You drive me insane, aah, pretty girl
Well you're mighty short an' lean in a pair of dirty jeans
Pretty girl

A pocketful of hearts, a-baby you collect 'em
A pocketful of hearts, and then you go and wreck 'em
A pocketful of hearts, 'cause you just neglect 'em
For a love that's new
A pocketful of hearts, crazy how you get 'em
A pocketful of hearts, a—love 'em and forget 'em
A pocketful of hearts, a-baby you condemn 'em
One more fool, me too
Play with fire and you'll get burned
The story's always true
You never dreamed a heart like yours
Could ever be so blue
A pocketful of hearts, one is gonna haunt you
A pocketful of hearts, one is gonna taunt you
A pocketful of hearts, when he doesn't want you

I just wanna be a playboy, play it night an' day boy
Just wanna have lots of fun
Chase the girls and spend lots of mon...
I just wanna be a playboy, 'cause that's the only way boy
To really get a lotta lovin' done, while I'm still young
I don't especially want a limousine
I don't especially want a Cadillac
I just want a hot rod machine and really wreck a back
I just wanna be a playboy, just wanna be the real McCoy
I don't really want a steady girl
I kinda like to give 'em all the whirl
I just wanna be a playboy, I just wanna spread lots of joy

One minute to one, and you gotta go home
And I didn't even kiss you, while we were alone
I was sittin' there wishin', I could hold you tight
But I reckon I waited just a little too long
To... kiss you tonight
One minute to one, how did it get so late
Even though I didn't get to kiss you
It's really been a wonderful date
One minute to one, and the movie was great
But your mama's gonna worry, 'cause it's gettin' so late
I just wanted to tell you, that I love you so
But I reckon I waited just a little too long
So... we'd better go
One minute to one, how did it get so late
Even though I didn't get to kiss you
It's really been a wonderful date
I want you to know now, that I think you're nice
But I reckon I'll wait till tomorrow night
And... I'll kiss you twice

I want but one love, an honest and true love
I want but one love, that's you
The stronger this love is with each passin' new year
'Cause I found my one love, that's you
There's no kiss and run, 'cause you are the one
Who will bring my happiness
Never a blue love, forever be true love

Give me one kiss, one kiss, that's what I want from you
I just want to kiss your lips, that's what I want to do
Eleven-thirty, the lights are low
Just one more kiss dear, before I go
Give me one kiss, one kiss, that's what I want from you
I'll hold you closer at your front door
We may have time left for three or four
Give me one kiss, one kiss, that's what I want from you

If I could see you once more, if I could touch you once more
If I could tell you I need you once more (once more)
To hold you near me once more and feel your kisses once more
If I could share your love like I once did before
No simple explanation can tell you how I feel
I miss the old sensation that was once so warm and real
Please let me open the door to all we knew once before

If tried to keep a smile on my face
And make believe another never took my place
But just when I think I've forgotten, that's when
I got you on my mind again
I tell myself that the sun will shine
And there will be another love for this heart of mine
But just when I think, I'm about to win
I got you on my mind again
All my friends say; forget you, find me somebody new
But all my friends just don't understand
The love this heart holds for you
I tell my self that the sun will shine
And there will be another love for this heart of mine
But just when I think, I'm about to win

Oh how I love Olita, no-one could ever be sweeter
I'm jealous of the earth she walks on
Jealous of the wind in her hair
I love that girl Olita, wonder could she learn to care
Oh how I want Olita, oh how I'm yearning to meet her
She doesn't even know I'm livin'
Doesn't even hear when I call
I love that girl Olita, wonder does she care at all
I just make believe she's mine when I'm on my own
Dreamin' of her all the time, dreamin' all alone
Dreamin' all alone, dreamin' all alone
Someday I'll smile and greet her, I'll say I love you Olita
And hold her in my arms and kiss her
Speak my words of love tenderly
But till I do Olita will only be a dream to me
Oh how I love Olita, oh how I miss Olita

Now is the hour
That we must say goodbye
Soon you'll be sailing
Far across the sea
While you're away from me
Oh, then remember me
And when you return

Never, I know I'll never, oh ever grow tired of you
Oh never, I know I'll never, oh ever stop loving you
And you will never have to cry
'Cause I will never make you blue
And there will never be a cloud
To keep the sun from shining through
Oh never, I know I'll never, oh ever stop loving you
And if someone should ever try
To take me from your love and charms
They'd only be the one to cry
'Cause I would never leave your arms
Oh never, I know I'll never, oh ever stop loving you

My tattle tale is a cute little girl
My tattle tale she puts your heart in a whirl
My tattle tale is a-shakin' me true
I say, I'm gonna tell my mammy on you
My tattle tale has a goodnight kiss

My tattle tale she makes a-me blue

My tattle tale now I think you should know
My tattle tale is not so slow
My tattle tale can get you too
When she says, I'm gonna tell my mammy on you

Oh once to my heart, came a dream set apart
Oh you are my love to remember
Oh yout-s was the smile that made life seem worth while
Oh you left me a love to remember
Just a girl down the street
That had planned we should meet
Well fate is sometimes just a lander
Oh you gone on your way, I will find you someday

You know the land-lady's ringin' my frontdoor bell
I let it ring for a long—long spell
Went to the window, peeked through the blinds, I said
Honey just exactly what you got on your mind
She said, money honey (money honey)
Money honey (money honey), money honey (yeah)
If you gonna get along with me
Well I screamed and hollered, I was so hard depressed
I called the woman that I love best
Got my baby 'bout half past three, she says
Eddie boy, just exactly what you want with me
I said, money honey (money honey)
Money honey (money honey), money honey (yeah)
If you gonna get along with me
Well I learned my lesson and now I know
The sun may shine and a wind may blow
Women may come and women may go, but
Well I said I love you honey, I just want you to know
I want, money honey (money hone.y)
Money honey (money honey), money honey (yeah)
If you gonna get along with me

I got my mojo workin', well my mojo workin'
Well now my mojo workin', well my mojo workin'
Well now my mojo workin', but it just won't work on you
You grab your little girl and you spin her around
You grab both hands and you holler out loud
You turn and you turn till you're back to back
You move your feet and then you don't look back
You do the mojo workout, well the mojo workout
You do the mojo workout till you just can't work no more
Shuffle right on back and you hold on tight
A-hoppin' and a-boppin' from a left to right
Snap your fingers and turn all around
You do a little chicken and you holler out loud
You do the mojo workout, ah work out now
Just one more thing that you gotta learn to do
You stomp and you romp and you do the goochie-goo
You wiggle and you turn and away you go
That's the way you do the mojo
You do the mojo workout, I mean the mojo workout
You do the mojo workout till you just can't work no more

I could tell that was my milkcow, by the way that she lowed
So if you see my milkcow, please send her home
Well I ain't had no milk and butter
Ooh, since my cow's been gone
Tried everything baby, to get along with you

Act like you missed me, a-baby
But don't resist me, a-baby
'Cause I'm mighty, mighty mean when I'm mad

Walkin' to the market place in New Orleans
I saw the cutest little queen
A pair of eyes I couldn't miss
Lips that were beggin' to be kissed
I went flyin' out in space
When I saw that pretty face
And I found that warm embrace
At the market place, market place
I didn't even know her name and didn't care
I was glad I took a walk and saw her there
In my arms she began to dance
That was the start of a big romance
Now that we are married up and settled down
I like to sit and think of ol' New Orleans town
The Mardigras, the happy fun

The breeze will tease the trees
And whistle by the brook, we'll take a look
And ripple by your ear, to clew you in
It's lovin' time again
For you and I will find a hideaway for love
Will always have the right of way
No need to tell us two, it's lovin' time again
(Lovin' time again)
Now if the girl for you can't see your point of view
Lovin' time will leave a spell
The first thing that you know, you'll have a heart in tow
The rest is up to you
The moon will be discreet
It won't repaet the things you say to me
It's time we meet, so let romance begin

I'm burning too much gas, we gotta slow down
Stop this rockin' and rollin' around
Ease up honey, you're drivin' me wild
Go down a gear and let's coast a while
Coast a while, coast a while
Go down a gear and let's just coast a while
Well everytime I ask you to stop
You're startin' to giggle, wiggle and bop
I don't dig this jive, I'm a little out of style
Push in the clutch and let's coast a while
Coast a while, coast a while
Push in the clutch and let's just coast a while
Well Rome wasn't build in one short day
We got all night to roll this way
The radiator's hot, the needle's goin' wild
Turn off the key and let's coast a while
Coast a while, coast a while
Turn off the key and let's just coast a while
Well here we are baby, it's the end of the line
So rave up your motor one more time
We been coastin' for over a mile
C'mon honey let's cut out a while
Coast a while, baby let's coast a while
C'mon honey let's just coast a while

Jelly Bean, Jelly Bean
Well that's the name we picked for you
And it fits you to-a-T
And now I tell you why it's true
'Cause you're sweet 'n' swell 'n' round
And a-pretty to the pound, Jelly Bean
There's a guy who lives in our block
His name is curly Carr
Each night he comes around the street
Packin' his guitar
Stops at Jelly Bean's house
That pretty little thing
Bows his head and bends his knees
You oughta hear him sing
Jelly Bean comes to the window
And she listens for a while
Never even blinks her eye, always in a smile
Tosses up her pretty curls and turns to go
Packs his guitar on more time
And sings his tale of woe

Well Jeannie, Jeannie, Jeannie come and dance with me

Well we rock around the clock and really have a ball
Well now first we hop, yeah-yeah-yeah, then we bop
Yeah-yeah-yeah, then we swap or rock 'n' roll
We'll do the stroll

You mean everything to me, it's heaven, heaven
All I want our love to be is heaven, heaven
Aah, is it true that you love me
Oh I swear by the stars above
And if my prayers are answered, you are my only love
Oh-oh, you mean everything to me, it's heaven, heaven
All I want our love to be is heaven, heaven
Our kind is the best in anyway, and it leaves us soon apart
But absence makes me wonder of you, here in my heart, oh-oh
You mean everything to me, it's heaven, heaven, heaven

Well did your baby leave you alone
And with nobody now to call your own

Oh it happened to me, yeah-yeah baby

And did you cry now, till you thought you would die
Well I know the feelin', I got the feelin'
It happened to me (I'm gonna tell you 'bout it too)
Did you ever, oh have the blues
Say right from your hair child, to the bottom of your shoes
Because you know now, down deep in your soul
Hey that your baby don't love you no more, oh—oh—oh
Would you crawl on your hands and knees
And would you beg her, oh come back please
Well I know the feelin', baby I got the feelin'

If I were dying with just one word to say
I'd say I love you, my darling, as I passed away
Come on and let me tell you how I love you once more
I want you to know, oh yes, before I go

If you see bitty Betty you better duck out of sight

Well baby-baby-baby, baby-baby-baby, baby-baby-baby

So please-please Elvis, spend Christmas with me
And if you won't
You ain't nothing but a reindeer, ooh barkin' all the time
Well if you ain't here for Christmas
Then you ain't no friend of mine

If Santa Claus could hear us prayin'
There isn't anything that we wouldn't pay
If you could be here Elvis on Christmasday
And if you won't

It's gonna be a great romance
So don't be cruel and love me tender
Don't give me those blue moon blues

So Elvis, spend Christmas with me

You are my loved one, you are my all
Come to my arms and love me forever
I've waited so long
You are the reason for bluebird songs
You are my loved one, you are the reason
I've waited so long
Time never mattered till you left me in vain
My heart was shattered, put it together and then
Heaven will love us, surely you know
That stardust will twinkle above us
I've waited so long

I'm sending you this record, please listen to it carefully
The words are sayin' darling, I love you
It looks like any other record, but it says oh-so easily
The things that I can't say when I'm with you
I spent all last week and the week before
Down at the neighbourhood record store
I've listened to a thousand tunes or more
Till I found the one I was searchin' for
So I'm sending you this record,please listen to it carefully
The words are sayin' darling, I love you

Sorry, I can't say the same about you
Yesterday's kisses are bringing me pain
Yesterday's sunshine has turned into rain
I'm alone because I love you
Love you with all my heart

(I'm a rabbit ooh-ooh) (I hates rabbits!)
Got that rabbit on the run, chase that rabbit with my gun
No long-ear rabbit laugh at me (I'm here, mail-special!)
Got a great big rabbit-trap, long-ear rabbit don't know that
The cotton-tale's gonna change his habbit (I hates rabbits!)
Well now I been readin' in my magic book
If I'm gonna have any luck with you
I gotta have a rabbitsfoot
The rabbit tries to change his looks
He been readin' disguise books, but rabbit-rabbit
(I hates rabbits!)
The rabbit tried to set a trap
But I'm too smart to fall for that
I doubled back and really fooled him
(Hey-hey, what's happening Mack?)
The rabbit ran up a hollow log
Stopped to talk to an old bullfrog
Showed that cotton-tale how to can him (I hates rabbits!)
Well now I been readin' in my magic book
If I'm to have any luck with you, I gotta have a rabbitsfoot
The rabbit's swimmin' in the river
I'll just wait 'cause I'm no swimmer
To catch a rabbit's lots of plannin'
(Oh boy) (Man, what a champion) (I hates rabbits!)

Hey there baby with the long hair, I know you played it cool
You play the game of broken hearts, with the heart of a fool
'Cause I believed you, yes I believed you
You let me love you with the heart of a fool
I never was a scholar, was never good at school
I learned to love the hard way, with the heart of a fool
'Cause I believed you, yes I believed you
You let me love you with a heart of a fool
You know you should have warned me, I didn't know the rules
Now I'm just a lonesome traveller, with a heart of a fool
'Cause I believed you, yes I believed you
You let me love you with the heart of a fool
Too many times I loved you, too soon you said goodbye
Too late I learned my lesson, now, too many times I cried
'Cause I believed you, yes I believed you

Have I told you lately that I love you
Could I tell you once again somehow
Have I told you with all my heart and soul, how I adore you
Well darling, I'm telling you now
This heart would break in two if you'd refuse me
I'm no good without you anyhow
Have I told you lately that I love you
Well darling, I'm telling you now

Let me tell you 'bout a girl I know
She's my baby and I love her so
Every morning when the sun comes up
She brings me coffee in my favorite cup
That's how I know, yes I know
Hallelujah, I just love her so
If I call her on the telephone
Say baby, Eddie's all alone
By the time you count one to four
She'll be ... on my door
In the evening when the sun goes down
And there ain't nobody else around
She kisses me and then she holds me tight
Eddie baby, everything's all right (swingin')
That's how I know, yes I know
Hallelujah, I just love her so

Well the party is through, we said our good-byes
We had a good time, yet there's tears in my eyes
Oh, what can it be, what's the matter with me
You left me half loved
We stood in the dark and you held my hand
Why were you afraid, I can't understand
I wanted your kiss, but it's always like this
You left me half loved
Well you hold me close, everytime we danced
Am I a fool, to think that I had a chance
To hope, you see, I'm your big romance
Baby that's why I'm in the dark
Oh-oh-oh-oh, my friends have all said
To love you is wrong
They say you're too young, but I'll string along
Someday you'll wake up and then I'll make up

Guilty concience, don't you have a guilty concience
Honey when you hold someone new
When you look into his eyes and tell him all those lies
Honey don't your concience bother you
Don't your concience bother you when your hear my name
Knowin' how you hurt your darlin'
Should fill your heart with shame
Guilty concience, guilty concience
Honey don't your concience bother you
Guilty concience, don't you have a guilty concience
When you hold another in my place
When you're walkin' by his side, dear are you satisfied
Or does a guilty concience bother you
I still remember all the things you said that wasn't true
And when you're holding someone else don't you remember too
Guilty concience, guilty concience
Honey don't your concience bother you
Guilty concience, don't you have a guilty concience
Honey when you hold someone new
When you know that it is smart, you jump from heart to heart
Honey don't your concience bother you
You told me once that you would love me till eternity
And now you're tellin' someone else the same as you told me
Guilty concience, guilty concience

(Well-oh, well-oh, whap-whip-whip-whip)
Once there was a girl
Oh-oh, what a girl
She said to me, where can it be?
Where's your Cadillac car?
A Cadillac car? (Cadillac car)
Where can I get me a Cadillac car
I don't have it now but I can get it (git it)
I don't have it now but I can get it (git it)
I don't have it now but I can get it (git it)
I'll do the best I can
(Git it, git it, git it)
Once there was a girl
Oh, she was so sweet
She said to me, where can it be?
Where's your diamond ring?
Diamond ring? (diamond ring)
Where can I get me a diamond ring?
I don't have it now but I can get it (git it)
I don't have it now but I can get it (git it)
I don't have it now but I can get it (git it)
I'll do the best I can

You tell me that you love me, I know that it is lied
But I keep right on believin' in a fool's paradise
I make believe, baby-baby, I make believe, baby-baby
Make believin's easy in a fool's paradise
Everybody's askin', what can the trouble be
Well it seems that they all want it baby
Not half as much as me
I make believe, baby-baby, I make believe, baby-baby
Make believin's easy in a fool's paradise
(Let's rock it! Oh, I'm so lonely I could cry)
Keep right on a-tryin' to leave this place I'm in
But then you smiled at someone else
And I'm knocked back yet again
I make believe, baby-baby, I make believe, baby-baby
Make believin's easy in a fool's paradise
Make believin's easy in a fool's paradise

You ask me if I'm lonesome, you say you're feelin' blue
Go get lost little baby doll, I don't wanna mess with you
I'm drownin' all my sorrows, I wanna be left alone
For the one I love has left me
She won't even answer the phone
You ask me why I'm cryin' , you just don't understand
The one I thought was mine alone has found her another man
I'm drownin' all my sorrows, the lights are gettin' kinda dim
She left me for another, I bet she'll do the same thing to him
I'll never trust a woman, they never can be true
They take your money, break your heart
And leave you feelin' blue
I'm drownin' all my sorrows, I guess a guy like me can't win
I don't know where I'm goin' , I don't even know where I been
Well my poor head is achin', I just can't seem to think
Pour me out a double please and pour this little gal a drink
I've drowned all my sorrows and now I'm gonna have a plain
I'm glad my baby left me, to me she never meant a thing

Wet rains the tear into my eyes, when I began to realise
I cried so much since you been gone
I guess I'll drown in my own tears
I've really cried just like a child
My poor little tears are running wild
If you don't think you'll be home soon
I guess I'll drown, oh-yeah, in my own tears
I know it's true, into each life
Wow, some rain, rain must fall
Clouds over here whithout you
It keeps a-rainin' more and more
Why can 't you come on home, oh-yes, so I won't be all alone
If you don't think, you'll be home soon
I guess I'll (drown in my own tears)
Oh don't let me (drown in my own tears)
When I'm in trouble baby (drown in my own tears)
I guess I'll drown in my own tears

Come on, baby, to a drive-in show
I know just the very place to go
I'll be over, pick you up at 8
This will be our very first date
When we're parkin' in the drive-in show
We'll be sittin' in the moonlight row
I'll bet my peanuts to a candy bar
You'll be cuter than a movie star
When it's over and we're headin' back
We'll stop in for just a little snack
Six hot dogs oughtta be just right

Ma and pa, now here you all go again
Givin' a party tryin' to impress your friends
We been tryin' to figure what you spent
This party must have cost a pretty cent
Howlin', rack 'em back, let 'em stack, runnin' around again
Rack 'em back, let 'em stack, runnin' around again
Sssh, don't wake up the kids please
Look at them doin' that ol' time jitterbug
Tearin' up a brandnew livingroom rug
And when they find that hole burned in the chair
You'd swear with all your might we put it there
Howlin'. rack 'em back, let 'em stack, runnin' around again
Rack 'em back, let 'em stack, runnin' around again
Sssh, don't wake up them kids you all
Thinkin' there was a recession goin' on
What you gonna do when all your loot is gone
You call all four of us a bunch of cranks
When we don't let you rob our piggy banks
Howlin', rack 'em back, let 'em stack, runnin' around again
Rack 'em back, let 'em stack, runnin' around again
Don't wake up them kids you all please
Wah, all the kids are peekin' through the crack
The baby found a cushion in the back
From the way he looked we got a hunch
He must have got a hold of some of your punch
Howlin' , rack 'em back, let 'em stack, runnin' around again
Rack 'em back, let 'em stack, runnin' around again
Sssh, don't wake up the kids, don't wake up the kids
Help your parents and all you grab a broom
While we do that dirty living room
And don't you make no noise while you sweep
You know your father's ill, he's tryin' to sleep
Howlin', rack 'em back, let 'em stack, runnin' around again
Rack 'em back, let 'em stack, runnin' around again
Hey you all, don't wake up them kids in there

Love me true, don't ever let me go
Go from you, please don't forget me
Love me true, don't ever let me go (go-go-go)
Let me go (go-go)
Love me long, don't ever leave me
Love me strong, don't ever grieve me
Love me true, don't ever let me go (go-go-go)
Let me go (go-go)
Oh, you may see a lot of boys
When you're out at night
Honey don't forget your promise
You'll treat me right
And when you're walkin' all alone
Just stay out sight
'Cause you belong to me

Well honey-honey please don't go
Don't you know I love you so
How can our love grow
If you bye-bye-baby me
Well honey-honey say you'll stay
Please don't ever go away
Each night I drag the day
That you bye-bye-baby me
I gotta rattle my bones
'Cause I'm a rollin' stone
I'm always movin' around
As the weeks go by, I feel like I
Oughta get out of this town
Well my baby packs my suitcase
And comes down to the train
With a tear in her eye she breathes a sigh
And I can hear my baby say
Well she says honey-honey please don't go
Sittin' on that choo-choo train
Sing a little rockin' rhyme
I visualize my baby
I can almost hear her cry
I try hard not to listen, turn my head away
But each chug-chug of the choo-choo train
I can hear my baby say
Well she said a-honey-honey please don't go
Honey I love you so
How can our love grow
If you bye-bye-baby me

Don't be bashful little girl, won't-won't you say hello
Don't you see me lookin' at the one I could love so
Woh-woh-won't you let me hold your hand
Try-y--y to steal a kiss or two
Maybe-baby, little baby maybe we could fall in love
Like I'm fallin' in love with you
Don't be bashful little girl, you look so all alone
Let me be the one tonight, the one to take you home
Woh-woh-won't you let me hold your hand
Try-y-y to steal a kiss or two
And maybe-baby, little baby maybe we could fall in love
Like I'm fallin' in love with you
Like I'm fallin' in love with you
Like I'm fallin' in love with you

Mmm ... mmm ... mmm, this dark lonely street
Here am I, I walk alone, I have no love of my own
Now each shadow I pass is my looking glass
On this dark lonely street
I'm in love with the dream, of a girl I've never seen
Out of reach, out of sight, will I find her tonight
On this dark lonely street
Is my love just pretend, will this dream never end
Maybe this cigarette, will help me to forget
This dark lonely street
Mmm ... mmm ... mmm, this dark lonely street

Now a country boy called Shorty
And a city boy named Dan
Had to prove who could run the fastest
To win miss Lucy's hand
Now Dan had all the money
And he also had the looks
But Shorty must have had something, boys
That can't be found in books
Well, a-cut across Shorty, Shorty cut across
That's what miss Lucy said
Cut across Shorty, Shorty cut across
It's you I wanna wed
Now Dan had been in training
A week before the race
He made up his mind
Ol' Shorty would end in second place
And Dan with his long legs a-flyin'
Left Shorty far behind
And Shorty heard him holler out
Miss Lucy, you'll soon be mine
But Shorty wasn't worried
There was a smile upon his face
He knew that he was a-goin' to win
'Cause Lucy had fixed the race
And just like that old story
About the turtle and the hair
When Dan crossed over the finish line
He found Shorty waiting there

I am cryin' in one eye over you
While the other searches for someone new
If you do me wrong, I'll be gone
'Cause my other eye would tell me to roam
Cryin' in one eye over you
The other feels for the one that's blue
If you love me like you say you do
I'll turn my other eye on you
My one eye is shy, the other weepin'
'Cause I cry for you in my sleepin'
That's no fib as you will know
My other eye will soon start to flow
My love for you is very strong
It's my fault if I'm all alone
To love you and leave you is so wrong

Well, they call you cradle baby
They say you're too young
Oh, that yours is not real love
You're just havin' fun
'Cause you're only sixteen
And your life is not free
Well, they call you cradle baby
But you're just right for me
So when I need a-lovin' and all of us do
L know that I'm a cookin', Well I'm a lookin' for you
Right back in the cradle
They say you should be
Well, they call you cradle baby
But you're just right for me
Well, they call you cradle baby
Why don't they leave you alone
They say your mama will worry
If you don't hurry home
Just a-pay no attention
'Cause it's all there to see
Well, they call you cradle baby

Oh, you ain't a-gonna make a cottonpicker out of me
(Bom-bom-bom)
No, you ain't a-gonna make a cottonpicker out of me
(Bom-bom-bom)
You can make a-me laugh, make a-me cry
Shake the stars right out of the sky
But, you ain't a-gonna make a cottonpicker out of me
You can make a-me sweat, make a-me steam
You can make a-me rock-rock-rock till I scream
But, you ain't a-gonna make a cottonpicker out of me
You can make a-me laugh, make a-me cry
Make a-me roll-roll-roll till I die
But, you ain't a-gonna make a cottonpicker out of me
You can make a-me poor, make a-me rich
Make a-me want the seven-year-itch
But, you ain't a-gonna make a cottonpicker out of me
You can make a-me sing, make a-me dance
Make a-me rock right out of my pants
But, you ain't a-gonna make a cottonpicker out of me
(Hey, hey you cottonpickers, right everybody, back to work)

Well completely sweet that's my baby
Completely sweet, I don't mean maybe
Well completely sweet that's my baby
Completely sweet, I don't mean maybe
And I love her more 'n' more each day
She's so completely sweet
Well a-just like a-honey, that the bees bring in
Mmm, a-just like a honey, that the bees bring in
Mmm, I get my sugar, when I kiss her on the chin
Well the sugar in my coffee, well the sugar in my tea
Well the sugar in my coffee, mmmm the sugar in my tea
Mmm, they both taste better, with a sugar on my knee

Well it's one for the money, two for the show
Three to get ready, now go cat, go
But don't you step on my blue suede shoes
Well, you can do anything but lay off of my blue suede shoes
Well you can knock me down, slap in my face
Slander my name all over the place
And do anything that you wanna do
But oh-oh honey lay off of my shoes
But don't you step on my blue suede shoes
Well, you can do anything but lay off of my blue suede shoes
Well you can burn my house, steal my car
Drink my liquor from my ol' fruit jar
Do anything that you wanna do
But oh-oh honey lay off of my shoes
Now don't you step on my blue suede shoes

Now there ain't a man who doesn't drink
And there ain't a man who doesn't think
That the stuff that he consumes is not the best
The Cubans drink Bacardi rum
Formaldehyde is drunk by some
They say that stuff will give you lots a rest
Now the Navy likes Torpedo juice
But I knew a gambler who'd produce
The best darn pack of gin that could be found
I drunk 'em all and so I know
From pink Champagne to sniffin' snow
There's just one drink that has that gravy now
Closer, move my beer closer
My eyes are dim and I can hardly see
Why drink bourbon, Scotch or wine
When beer is cheaper, twice as fine
Closer, closer, closer, move it closer
Now granddad was no drinkin' man
I don't want you to misunderstand
But he'd take a nip if someone had a shot
When the first snow fell and it was cold
For medicinal purposes I was told
Those tarries that he nicked sure hit the spot
But I've heard him say it a time or two
That if he had it all again to do
He would have bought a bar when he was just a pup
Then whenever he felt a chill or such
Or maybe he just wanted to slip his clutch
He would grab the stein and had 'em fill 'er up
Now Kentucky brew, the brandy stuff
It looks like water but it's twice as rough
It makes you think that you been kicked by a mule
Of course women they drink most anything
From milk and tea till a hop-head-sling
I hear they drink their coffees hot or cool
Now wine is fine but I declare
Next morning with them buffels there
It makes it kinda hard to navigate
I like to ride with my head clear
So if you please, just one cold beer
That's something that I'd sure appreciate

Well c'mon everybody and let's get together tonight
I got some money in my jeans
And I'm really gonna spend it right
Well, I been doin' my homework all week long
Now the house is empty and my folks are gone
Ooh, c'mon everybody (Let's get together)
Well my baby's number one
But I'm gonna dance with three or four
And the house will be a-shakin'
From the bare feet a-slappin' on the floor
Hell when you hear the music you just can't sit still
If your brother won't rock, then your sister will
Ooh, c'mon everybody (Let's get together)
Hell we'll really have a party
But we gotta put a guard outside
If the folks come home, I'm afraid they gonna have my hide
There'll be no more movies for a week or two
No more running 'round with the usual crew
Who cares?
C'mon everybody ... c'mon everybody

Butterscotch candy and strawberry pie
Gonna love my baby till the day that I die
'Cause of butterscotch candy and strawberry pie
Well I met my baby in a goodies shop
Sellin' butterscotch candy and soda pop and strawberry pie
Now I said, pretty baby I love your eyes
But in the back of my mind were those strawberry pies
So I said, pretty baby won't you please be mine
Butterscotch candy and strawberry pie
Gonna love my baby till the day that I die
'Cause of butterscotch candy and strawberry pie
Now she said yes and we were wed
In a butterscotch church on a strawberry bed
In the middle of May on the sunniest day of all
Now I'll eat my fill of strawberry pie
And butterscotch candy till the day that I die
My baby and I gonna have ourselves a ball

Broken hearted fellow, you're all alone and blue
'Cause the girl you love she's run away
With a fellow she once knew
You thought you was her only
8ut you know now that's not true
Oh, broken hearted fellow, what are you gonna do
Just remember pal, you're not alone
There' s others lonesome too
And just because your sweetheart's gone
Don't feel alone and blue
Oh, broken hearted fellow, take my advice, please do
Don't feel too bad, don't get so sad
She may come back to you
Just remember pal, you're not alone
There's others lonesome too
And just because your sweetheart's gone
Don't feel alone and blue
Oh, broken hearted fellow, let me tell you what to do

A borrowed love can never last
A borrowed love will fill your heart with pain
A borrowed love is like a storm
It leaves you standin' all alone in the rain
Fools who make love with bad kisses
Are livin' on a borrowed love
A borrowed love is just a game
A borrowed love is lust for lust a day
A borrowed love will leave you cold
And when it's gone you'll be the one who will pray
Count the heartaches, count the teardrops
They're only part of borrowed love
A borrowed love, a borrowed love
I was a fool to think that you would last
You took my kiss, you broke my heart
But now I'm free and you are left in the past
I found true love with a new love
Never need a borrowed love

(Wah-hoo)
Well the boll weevil and the little black bug
Come from a-Mexico they say
Came all the way to Texas
Just a-lookin' for a place to stay
Just a-lookin' for a home, just a-lookin' for a home
(Doo-doo-wop-wop)
Well the first time that I seen the boll weevil
He was a-sittin' on the square
Well the next time that I seen him
He had his a-family there
Just a-lookin' for a home, just a-lookin' for a home
(Doo-doo-wop-wop)
Well the farmer took the boll weevil
And he put him on the red hot sand
Well the weevil said this is a-mighty hot
But I take it like a man
This will be my home, this will be my home
Well the f armer took the boll weevil
And he put him on a keg of ice
Well the weevil said to the farmer
This is mighty cool and nice
This will be my home, this will be my home
(Doo-doo-wop-wop)
Well if anybody should ask you
Who it was who sang this song
Say a guitar picker from a-Oklahoma city
With a pair of blue jeans on
Just a-lookin' for a home, just a-lookin' for a home
(Doo-doo-wop-wop)

Well, out sits granny, old and thin
Ain't had a kiss since I-I don't know when
She grabbed a stranger passin' by
Said let's go daddy before I die
You oughta see grandma rock
You oughta see grandma rock
She got everybody jumpin' in our block
You oughta see grandma rock
Well, you oughta see grandma rock
You oughta see grandma rock
She got everybody jumpin' in our block
You oughta see grandma rock
Well she grabbed grandpa from his rockin' chair
Said let's go daddy, don't be a square
He hit the floor, let out a moan
A-bopped three shakes, he was gone-gone
(Yeah, rock it but don't ruin it! )
Old grandpa he was wearin' a frown
He can't keep up and she won't slow down
He can't find a bottle strong enough

I'm gonna stomp you on the top of your foot
And hang you from a big long fishing hook
And drop you plunge to the bottom of the sea, hey-hey
Let the sharks eat you all up
If them mean old whales don't interrupt
Cos baby you know how you been torturing little ol' me
Hey-hey
I'm the judge, the jury too
Judgement has been brought upon you
You been convicted for the crime you've done
You made me feel like a little ol' crumb
You know it's wrong to torture me
You love my friends the same way you love me
And like Tom, I don't wanna hang from a big oak tree over you
When I say hop, I mean make like a frog
And when I say bark, you better sound like a dog
Cos I'm gonna torture you
The same way you been torturing little ol' me, hey-hey

Oh Willa Mae, a-come a-shakin' by my way
Oh Willa Mae, a-come a-shakin' by my way
You gonna drive me wild
You know I love you child, Willa Mae
Oh Willa Mae, I love you more everyday, ooh
Oh Willa Mae, yeah I love you more everyday
They say that love is blind, but they did not know your kind
Oh Willa Mae, you give me chills when we meet
Like a bulldog walkin' barefoot on a cold-cold street
Willa Mae, a-come a-shakin' by my way
You got the love I need, honey yes indeed

Who can I count on if I can't count on you
I never counted on you makin' me blue
They say you're runnin' 'round with somebody new
Who can I count on if I can't count on you
I thought I held the brassily key to heaven
Your love was sweet and gentle at the start
But now I feel that I can't go on livin'
If livin' means that we must live apart
Who can I count on if I can't count on you
There goes my happiness and here come the blues
I can't convince myself that we're really through
Who can I count on if I can't count on you
Ah, the door to happiness was almost open
Just one more step or two, I'd walk right in
Then all at once the vows you made were broken

(Chorus)
Oh, the wayward wind
Is a restless wind, a restless wind
That yearns to wander
And I was born the next of kin
The next of kin to the wayward wind
In a lonely shack by a railroad track
I spent my younger days
And I guess the sound of the outward-bound
Made me a slave to my wandering ways
Oh, I met a girl in a border town
I vowed we'd never part
Though I tried my best to settle down

Put your little hands in mine
Say you'll love me all the time
My heart is sighing, it's almost dying
My eyes are crying for you
Hold me close and squeeze me tight
If you would only treat me right
My heart is sighing, it's almost dying
My eyes are crying for you
I loved you since time began
And I always will
I need you here by my side
This world's to know how I feel
Let me whisper in your ear
Little words like "I love you dear"
My heart is sighing, it's almost dying

Blind date, blind date
Tonight's the night I've waited for
I'm all dressed up and I shined my car
I'm all ready, I can't hardly wait
For my blind date
Blind date, blind date, uh-huh
What should I do, what should I say
I hope she likes me well, anyway
I'm all ready, I can't hardly wait
For my blind date
My friends say she's a looker
I'm reeling inside
I got a feelin' I'm gonna be stealin'
Kisses from my blind date tonight
Blind date, blind date, uh-huh
She's a teenage doll, so I've heard said
Lucky me, I hope I don't lose my head
I'm all ready, I can't hardly wait
For my blind date
My friends say she's a looker
I'm reeling inside
I got a feelin' I'm gonna be stealin'
Kisses from my blind date tonight
Blind date, blind date, uh-huh
She's a teenage doll, so I've heard said
Lucky me, I hope I don't lose my head
I'm all ready, I can't hardly wait
For my blind date

Each day you say tomorrow you'll ask him to set you free
You promised you would tell him, you want to marry me
You want him, you want me and yet you want your fun
Today will pass like yesterday and tomorrow will never come
Darling your tomorrows is just your excuse to me
'Cause you will never tell him that you're in love with me
You lied to him, you lied to me, a week is almost done
Today will pass like yesterday and tomorrow will never come
Tomorrow is your promise as each day is almost done
You know you'll never keep it
'Cause tomorrow will never come
You cheat on him, you cheat on me, you're the selfish one

You're the reason I don't sleep at night
I just lay here at night, toss and I turn
Lovin' you so, how my heart yearns
You're the reason I don't sleep at night
Walkin' the floor, feelin' so blue
Smoke cigarettes and drink coffee too
You're the reason I don't sleep at night
I'm bettin' you're not losin' sleep over me
But if I'm wrong, don't fail to call
Come over and keep me company
Sometimes I go for walk, take a look at the moon
Strum my guitar and sing out a tune

Are you tired of staying home and being lonely
Walk the dog (walk the dog)
Walk the dog (walk the dog)
Would you like a way to meet your one and only
Walk the dog (walk the dog)
Walk the dog (walk the dog)
Big dog, little dog, all you gotta do is walk the dog
First you take a little stroll around the corner
Walk the dog (wroof-wroof)
Walk the dog (wroof-wroof)
When she sees you walking by, then she's a goner
Walk the dog (aarhw-aarhw)
Walk the dog (aarhw-aarhw)
Big dog, little dog, all you gotta do is walk the dog
Hot diggety-dog, the ice is broken
Without a single word being spoken
And if you play your cards just right
You got yourself a date for Saturday night
You can start to wear a smile of satisfaction
Walk the dog (walk the dog)
Walk the dog (walk the dog)
It's the way to be the center of attraction
Walk the dog (walk the dog)
Walk the dog (walk the dog)
Big dog, little dog, all you gotta do is walk the dog
D-o-o-o-g...
Hot diggety-dog, the ice is broken
Without a single word being spoken
And if you play your cards just right
You got yourself a date for Saturday night
You can start to wear a smile of satisfaction
Walk the dog (walk the dog)
Walk the dog (walk the dog)
It's the way to be the center of attraction
Walk the dog (walk the dog)
Walk the dog (walk the dog)
Big dog, little dog, all you gotta do is walk the dog
D-o-o-o-g...
You walk mine, I walk yours
A little dog

Diane, Diane, unfaithful Diane
With golden hair and lips like wine
And blue eyes, as blue as the sky
A dream I once knew knew that can never come true
And only in dreams is she mine
Oh Diane, Diane, unfaithful Diane
My heart is at your command
Why should my heart so true, love, all be for you
Why I can't understand
So heartsick I'll be, 'cause you'll never love me
You'll never love any one man
Oh Diane, Diane, unfaithful Diane
Oh, not so long ago, this angel I know
She got hold in my arms so tight
I knew she were true, but just like a fool
I lin-gered, now I cry each night
For Diane, Diane, unfaithful Diane
Oh, my heart is at your command
Why should my heart so true, love, all be for you
Why I can't understand
So heartsick I'll be, 'cause you'll never love me

There's two blue singin' stars in heaven
I see and hear them every night
They used to sing and shine here on earth
So beautiful and bright
One is a true blue yodeler, he yodeled his way to fame
The other blue star is from Alabama
Oh I need not call his name
They seem to be so happy in their heavenly home
They're singin' with the angels around God's golden throne
So when our life on earth is over
And we turn it to the stars
We'll meet our friends that sing and play
Those golden blue guitars
There's two blue singin' stars in heaven
I see and hear them every night
Singin' songs coming from their hearts
To fill mine with delight
One is a true blue yodeler, he yodeled his way to fame
The other blue star is from Alabama
I need not call his name
They seem to be so happy in their heavenly home
They're singin' with the angels around God's golden throne
Someday there'll be a grand reunion
It'll be a heavenly affair
When we pass through those pearly gates

Baby-baby-baby, please don't say goodnight
Hold me near and have no fear, let me hold you tight
I'm a fool, who's the lovin' kind
You qot me flippin' out of my mind
Tood-a-loo, I'm in love with you
Tood-a-loo, tood-a-loo, I'll be seem' you
Tood-a-loo, tood-a-loo, I'll be seem' you
Kiss me baby, say you love me tood-a-loo, tood-a-loo
Baby-baby-baby, if your heart would know
What your kisses do to me, please don't let me go
Now's the time, like the wise man said
You better go in while you're still ahead

Look up in the sky, up towards the north
There are three new stars, brightly shining forth
They're shining oh-so bright from heaven above
Gee, we're gonna miss you, everybody sends their love
Ritchie, you were just starting to realise your dreams
Everyone calls me a kid, but you were only seventeen
Now Almighty God has called you, from oh-so far away
Maybe it's to save some boy or girl
Who might have gone astray
And with your star shining through the dark and lonely night
To light the path and show the way, the way that's right
Gee, we're gonna miss you, everybody sends their love
Buddy, I can still see you, with that shy grin on your face
Seems like your hair was always a little messed up
And kinda outa place
Now, not many people actually knew you or
Understood how you felt
But just a song, just a song from you
Could make the coldest heart melt
Well you're singing for God now, in his chorus in the sky
Buddy Holly, I'll always remember you with tears in my eyes
Gee, we're gonna miss you, everybody sends their love
I see a stout man, the Big Bopper's your name
God called you to heaven, maybe for new fortune and fame
Keep wearing that big Stetson hat and ramble up to the mike
And don't forget those wonderful words, you know what I like
Look up in the sky, up towards the north
There are three new stars, brightly shining forth
They' re shining oh—so bright from heaven above

Everytime, we get together
Everytime, your lips meet mine
I start a-shiverin' and a-shakin'
A quiverin' and a-quakin'
Ooh yeah, you give me the willies
Everytime, I look at you
You don't know, what I go through
Well, my head starts reelin'
With a crazy kind of feelin'
'Cause ooh yeah, you give me the willies
When we kiss, that's the best of all
I'm outta my mind, I'm havin' a ball
I want this feelin' to stay and stay
So I hold you tight while I push you away
Don't you know, what you do to me
I'm afraid that you just won't see
But I'm laughin' and cryin', you got me sighin'
Ooh yeah, you give me the willies
Yeah everytime, we get together
Yeah everytime, your lips meet mine
I start a-shiverin' and a-shakin'
A quiverin' and a-quakin'
Ooh yeah, you give me the willies
When we kiss, that's the best of all
I'm outta my mind, 'cause I'm havin' a ball
I want this feelin' to stay and stay
So I hold you tight while I push you away
Don't you know, what you do to me
I'm afraid that you just won't see
But I'm laughin' and cryin', you got me sighin'

Well it seems I've had a lifetime filled with misery
I remember how it all began
The doctor grabbed my feet, slapped me on the cheek
That's what it takes to make a man
Even as a baby they were pinnin' things on me
Daddy called me mother's little lamb
But you should have seen 'em rave
When I gave the dog a shave
That's what it takes to make a man
They thought I was a genius, when I first went to school
Then I flunked my very first exam
And for all the books I've read
There' s just sawdust in my head
That's what it takes to make a man
Well I finally finished highschool, tried some college too
Then I did a hitch with Uncle Sam
I fought the enemy, sergeants I'll agree
That's what it takes to make a man
Well I went back to my hometown
Where the mayor was my friend
Said he knew a job that I could lend
Well I got that job alright
Cleaned the streets up every night
That's what it takes to make a man
Well I got a new position in a dry good store down town
Bought my gal a golden wedding band
But she up and fled the scene
When it turned her finger green
That's what it takes to make a man

Hey Teresa, I saw you in school today
This is what I got to say
Mmm, you're a honey, worth more to me than money
Cuter to me than a rose-bud
I'll love you forever, if you'll be my girl
Oh, I'm gonna ask you out
That's what I'm talkin' about
I wanna make a date, mmm, I'd better not wait
Hey Teresa, right away
You've got eyes that sparkle
Hair that's soft like an angel

Uh I'm uh gonna raise a fuss , I'm uh gonna raise a holler
About uh workin' all summer just to try the eart a dollar
Well ev'ry time I call my baby try to get a date
My boss says " no dice son ya gotta work late"
Sometimes I wonder what I'm uh gonna do
But there ain't no cure for the summertimes blues
Well my mom and papa told me son ya gotta earn some money
Uh if ya wanna use the car to go a ridin' next sunday
A well I didn't go to work told the boss I was sick
Now ya can't use the car 'cause ya didn't work a lick
Sometimes I wonder what I'm uh gonna do
I'm gonna take two weeks gonna have a fine vacation
I'm gonna take my problems to the United Nations
Well I called my congress man and he told quote
" I'd like to help ya son but you're too young to vote "
Sometimes I wonder what I'm uh goona do

Oh, my baby goes rockin', ooh, rockin' all night
No shoes no stockin's, but that's all right
Well she don't need stockin's and shoes to rock all night
Ooh, stockin's and shoes, stockin's and shoes
Well you don't need stockin's and shoes to dance the blues
Well I love a-my baby, indeed I do
Well I love a-my baby, she loves me too
You oughta see us rock without stockin's and shoes
Ooh, stockin's and shoes, stockin's and shoes
Well you don't need stockin's and shoes to dance the blues
Well the bare feet slappin' on the hardwood floor
These crazy things a-happen, along about four
And the very next night my baby's a-back for more
Ooh, stockin's and shoes, stockin's and shoes
Well you don't need stockin's and shoes to dance the blues
Well I bought my baby some crazy socks
I love my baby, but she don't wear socks
Yeah she kicks her shoes right off and man she rocks
Ooh, stockin's and shoes, stockin's and shoes
Well you don't need stockin's and shoes to dance the blues
Ooh, stockin's and shoes, stockin's and shoes

Well, baby our love was born the moment that we met
But early in the morning, the grass is always wet
So, just like the dewdrops, our love would fade away
But how was I to know it couldn't last a day
But now there's no use crying
There's no use crying over spilled milk
No use crying, there's no use crying over spilled milk
I know just what went wrong, the cards I didn't play
If my game was strong, she'd still be mine today
But losing ain't my name, although I not the same
I ain't gonna be no fool, put myuself to shame
'Cause there's no use crying
There's no use crying over spilled milk
No use crying, there's no use crying over spilled milk
We're all washed up it's true, the rain came all to soon
But I'll find someone new, this won't be my ruin
And if I play it smart, on a brand new start
I know just how to hold on, to my new found heart
And then there's no use crying
There's no use crying over spilled milk
No use crying, there's no use crying over spilled milk

I've got a bone to pick with this world
But I'm not very handsome, I can't find a girl
I asked the aid of the whole universe
I'm not very happy, it could be worse
(Chorus)
Somebody help me (yeah-yeah-yeah)
Somebody help me (yeah-yeah-yeah)
Somebody please, somebody please help me
I've been searchin' all over town
Tryin' to find a girl who'd dare to vow
The birds and the bees are helping me around
We're turning this whole town upside down
I've been watching the clock on the wall
I've been waiting for my baby to call
I've been pacin' all the floor

Well I got a girl they call Skinnie Minnie
She may be skinny but she's got plenty
The kind of lovin' that I desire
The kind of love that sets my soul on fire
Skinnie Minnie, man that gal can love
She's long and lean like a stringbean
She don't look good in blue jeans
Her hair hangs down like a rag mop
She makes my heart go flippedy-flop
She can't cook, she ain't much on looks
The things she knows, she didn't read in books
Skinnie Minnie, man that gal can love
When me and Minnie walk down the street
All the boys stop and stare
But if they knew just what I do
You bet your life they'd love her too
Well, when I kiss her out in the dark
I tear the thing up, there's so much spark

Sarah, Sarah, Sarah, Sarah, Sarah Lee
Won't you come along and go with me
To a place where the lights are bright
Where they do nothing but rock all night
Rock all night, rock all night
Where they do nothing but rock all night
Sarah, Sarah, Sarah, Sarah, Sarah Lee
Won't you come along and go with me
Baby you're such a pretty sight
All I wanna do is rock all night
Rock all night, rock all night
All I wanna do is rock all night
Come-a, come-a, come-a, come along with me
Sarah, Sarah, Sarah, Sarah, Sarah Lee
Will you, will you, will you, will you say you'll go
Honey, honey, honey, honey don't say no
Oowh, Sarah, Sarah, Sarah, Sarah, Sarah Lee
Won't you come along and go with me
To a place where the lights are bright
Where they do nothing but rock all night
Come-a, come-a, come-a, come along with me
Sarah, Sarah, Sarah, Sarah, Sarah Lee
Will you, will you, will you, will you say you'll go
Honey, honey, honey, honey don't say no
Oowh, Sarah, Sarah, Sarah, Sarah, Sarah Lee
Won't you come along and go with me
To a place where the lights are bright
Where they do nothing but rock all night
Rock all night, rock all night
Where they do nothing but rock all night
Rock all night, rock all night
Where they do nothing but rock all night
Rock all night, rock all night
Rock all night, rock all night

Rollin', rollin' on down the line
The sweetest little gal that I ever did know
I had to leave her behind
But she said, daddy, don't leave me here to whine
You're breakin' my heart right half in two
By rollin' on down the line
But I kept on rollin', rollin' on down the line
The sweetest little gal that I ever did know
I had to leave her behind
Now she said, baby, won't you please change your mind
There's nothin' you could say or do
That would ever make me change my mind
And I kept on rollin', rollin' on down the line
The sweetest little gal that I ever did know
I had to leave her behind
And she said, honey, don't leave me here alone
'Cause if you do and you get back, you won't find me at home
And I kept on rollin', rollin' on down the line
The worst mistake that I ever made
Was leavin' that gal behind

Well baby, I'm glad we had a date tonight
Come on let's live it up
They'll really watch our smoke
We'll have a lot of fun if you string along with me
I know I'll change your mind over a coke
Oh, honest, I'd like to tell you how I feel
But everytime I do, you think that's it's a joke
Help me find the words to say what's in my heart
And we'll discover love over a coke
Jealous, wouldn't you be jealous
If you loved a girl you knew who didn't right
The words I said are goin' over your head
You're thinkin' of tomorrow night instead
Oh baby, if I could only hold your hand
And make you understand every word I spoke
You'll say you want me too, hey waitress, bring two more
We're celebratin' love over a coke
Well baby, if I could only hold your hand
And make you understand every word I spoke
You'll say you want me too, hey waitress, bring two more
We're celebratin' love over a coke
We're celebratin' love over a coke

Open the door, open the door
I'm just a step, step away from your heart
Open the door and baby let me in
Yes open the door, then close it back again
Open the door, well baby let me in
I'm just a step, step away from your heart
Open the door, you set my heart a-flame
Yes open the door, I'll never be the same
Open the door, to win you is my aim
I'm just a step, step away from your heart
Oh baby you knew, you knew I'd follow you
No matter how far
Well-well-well, if you don't say you love me baby
Gal, my lovin's not up to part
Open the door, and baby let me in
Yes open the door, then close it back again
Open the door, well baby let me in
I'm just a step, step away from your heart

Well listen pretty baby, let's go out tonight
Tell your mama not to worry, everything's gonna be alright
Don't let me hear you talkin', just be there when I call
'Cause what I do I do my way or it won't be done at all
Oh little girl, better hear what I say
Yeah, I'm a easy goin' guy, but I always gotta have my way
I was born a tiger, I always had my way
Nobody's gonna change me, this or any other day
Don't let me hear you argue, when I say frog you jump
'Cause a woman ain't been born yet
That can play me for a chump
Oh little girl, better hear what I say
Yeah, I'm a easy goin' guy, but I always gotta have my way
Well don't ask me for my reasons, don't ever wonder why
When I walk away and leave you, I don't wanna see you cry
Now, I done a lot of planning, got a lot of things to do
So don't give me no trouble or you and I are through
Oh little girl, better hear what I say
Yeah, I'm a easy goin' guy, but I always gotta have my way

My lovin' baby is the world to me
My lovin' baby is my destiny
My lovin' baby she's just dynamite
I love to kiss her and to squeeze her tight
She is my only one. I don't mean maybe
Ooh-wee, my lovin' baby
My lovin' baby is what I craze about
My lovin' baby she knocks me out
I've got a longing for her crazy style
My lovin' baby, ooh she drives me wild
She is the only one, I don't mean maybe
Ooh-wee, my lovin' baby
My lovin' baby told me here's the score
You don't go 'round with other gals no more
I'll be your baby if you tow the line
Just stick with me and we'll be doin' fine
She is my only one, I don't mean maybe
Ooh-wee, my lovin' baby
Each time I look into my baby's eyes
My lovin' baby makes me realise
I gotta have her for my very own
We'll settle down and raise a happy home
She is my only one, I don't mean maybe

Here's a story about Minnie the Moocher
She was a low down hoochie-coocher
She was the roughest, toughest frail
But Minnie had a heart as big as a whale
[Original Chorus]
Hodee-hodee-hodee-ho (hodee-hodee-hodee-ho)
Ra-dee-da-dee-da (ra-dee-da-dee-da)
Teedle-teedle-dee (teedle-teedle-dee)
Hodee-hodee-hodee-ho (hodee-hodee-hodee-ho)
Min' had a dream about the King of Sweden
He gave her things that she was needin'
Gave her a home built of gold and steel
A platinum car with diamond starlet wheels
[Variations on Chorus]
Oh Minnie met ol' Deacon Lowdown
He preached to her, oh you oughta slow down
But Minnie wiggled and did the stroll
The Deacon Lowdown hollered, oh save my soul
[Variations on Chorus]
They took her where they put the crazies
Now poor ol' Minnie is a-kickin' up daisies
You heard my story, this ends my song
She was just a good gal, but they done her wrong

You petrify me, a-baby, ooh, satisfy me, a-baby
But don't defy me, a-baby
'Cause I'm mighty, mighty mean when I'm mad
You tantalize me, a-baby, you hypnotize me, a-baby
But don't surprise me, a-baby
'Cause I'm mighty, mighty mean when I'm mad
Don't want my lovin' from another girl
'Cause you mean more to me than this whole wide world
I need your lovin' and I need it bad
Watch out a-baby if you make me mad
So hug and kiss a-me, a-baby
Act like you missed me, a-baby
But don't resist me, a-baby

It's me, it's me my darling, you know I've been away
I've been away a long-long while
Longin' to see your pretty smile
Darling yes oh darling, you're the one, the one
Oh darling, you're the one
'Cause my heart beats but there's no glow
Won't you say you love me, so I'll know, I'll know
Love me, so I'll know
It's me, it's me my darling, you know I've been away
All day I think my heart's alone
Don't you know I want you for my own, my own
Want you for my own
Well, darling yes oh darling, the time has come to part
I'll be gone a long-long while
I want to see your pretty smile
Darling yes oh darling, you're my heart, my heart
Darling you're my heart
'Cause my heart beats but there' s no glow
Won't you say you love me, so I'll know, I'll know
Love me, so I'll know

I'll never love again, love again, love again, oh—oh—oh—oh
I'll never love again, love again, love again, oh-oh-oh-oh
I'll never won't you listen to my plea
Come back, back to me
My darling, dearest one, I'm in misery
You went away and left me, didn't even say goodbye
Left me so lonesome, I wish I could die
I was a fool, I fell in love with you, mmm, with you
How was I to know your love wasn't true, not true
Love again, love again, love again, oh—oh-oh-oh
I'll never love again, love again, love again, oh-oh-oh-oh
I'll never love again, love again, love again, oh-oh—oh—oh

I'm burning too much gas, we gotta slow down
Stop this rockin' and rollin' around
Ease up honey, you're drivin' me wild
Go down a gear and let's coast a while
Coast a while, coast a while
Go down a gear and let's just coast a while
Well everytime I ask you to stop
You're startin' to giggle, wiggle and bop
I don't dig this jive, I'm a little out of style
Push in the clutch and let's coast a while
Coast a while, coast a while
Push in the clutch and let's just coast a while
Well Rome wasn't build in one short day
We got all night to roll this way
The radiator's hot, the needle's goin' wild
Turn off the key and let's coast a while
Coast a while, coast a while
Turn off the key and let's just coast a while
Well here we are baby, it's the end of the line
So rave up your motor one more time
We been coastin' for over a mile

Well it's seven, eight, make it a date
Take off cat like a rocket-eight
Well it's nine, ten, now and then

Come on baby let's kiss and make up
I don't know why we had to break up
The way you act is just not right
I can't sleep a wink at night
Each time I think of you I, I wake up
Say you forgive me, let's kiss and make up
I never thought I'd miss you honey
Well I was wrong, that's not funny
If I could only tell you so
You'd be mine again, I know
Can't we start again and take up
Say you forgive me, let's kiss and make up
I can't stand the game we're playin'
Because of you everyone's sayin'
I oughta give up and start forgettin'
But I'm a fool, I'm still regrettin'
Since the night we had our break-up

I wanna hold you real tight
So I can kiss you just right
So baby won't you please be
Just a little nicer to me
And don't be nervous at a time like this
Love is something that we don't wanna miss
Let me thrill to your touch
Because I love you so much

So baby won't you be fair
And don't be nervous at a time like this
Love is something that we don't wanna miss

Well Itty-Bitty-Betty got some rockin' shoes
Well she's gonna rock away all her blues
Well she's a-gonna make it to the record hop
And when she starts a-dancin', man she ain't gonna stop
Well Itty-Bitty-Betty she just loves to dance
When she starts a-swingin', man you ain't got a chance

You mean everything to me, it's heaven, heaven
All I want our love to be is heaven, heaven
Aah, is it true that you love me
Oh I swear by the stars above
And if my prayers are answered, you are my only love
Oh-oh, you mean everything to me, it's heaven, heaven
All I want our love to be is heaven, heaven
Our kind is the best in anyway, and it leaves us soon apart
But absence makes me wonder of you, here in my heart, oh-oh

You are my loved one, you are my all
Come to my arms and love me forever
I've waited so long
You are the reason for bluebird songs
You are my loved one, you are the reason
I've waited so long
Time never mattered till you left me in vain
My heart was shattered, put it together and then
Heaven will love us, surely you know
That stardust will twinkle above us

I'm sending you this record, please listen to it carefully
The words are sayin' darling, I love you
It looks like any other record, but it says oh-so easily
The things that I can't say when I'm with you
I spent all last week and the week before
Down at the neighbourhood record store
I've listened to a thousand tunes or more
Till I found the one I was searchin' for
So I'm sending you this record, please listen to it carefully

I'm alone because I love you
Love you with all my heart
Oh, I'm alone because I had to be true
Sorry, I can't say the same about you
Yesterday's kisses are bringing me pain
Yesterday's sunshine has turned into rain
I'm alone because I love you
Love you with all my heart
Yesterday's kisses are bringing me pain
Yesterday's sunshine has turned into rain
I'm alone because I love you

I keep thinkin', hopin' and prayin'
That you will remember and come back to me
When you remember the happiness of our past
Do you think this heartache will last
Remember, oh yes
If love's a game, for you can't win
Remember, I lost, losing you
If you find, in time, your love is mine
Come back, I'll be waiting for you
I keep thinkin', hopin' and prayin'

(I'm a rabbit ooh-ooh) (I hates rabbits! )
Got that rabbit on the run, chase that rabbit with my gun
No long-ear rabbit laugh at me (I'm here, mail-special! )
Got a great big rabbit-trap, long-ear rabbit don't know that
The cotton-tale's gonna change his habbit (I hates rabbits! )
Well now I been readin' in my magic book
If I'm gonna have any luck with you
I gotta have a rabbitsfoot
The rabbit tries to change his looks
He been readin' disguise books, but rabbit-rabbit
(I hates rabbits! )
The rabbit tried to set a trap
But I'm too smart to fall for that
I doubled back and really fooled him
(Hey-hey, what's happening Mack?)
The rabbit ran up a hollow log
Stopped to talk to an old bullfrog
Showed that cotton-tale how to can him (I hates rabbits! )
Well now I been readin' in my magic book
If I'm to have any luck with you, I gotta have a rabbitsfoot
The rabbit's swimmin' in the river
I'll just wait 'cause I'm no swimmer
To catch a rabbit's lots of plannin'

Yeah you told me you'd meet me at a movie show
I waited and I waited but I had to go
You're not the only girl in town
I won't stand for your foolin' around
Oh-no, ah-ah, I don't like you no more
Well we went to a party last Saturday night
Thought that everything would be all right
But you had to go and put me down
I just won't stand for your foolin' around
Oh-no, ah—ah, I don't dig you no more
Remember baby, when we first met
You said you'd be my by in' pet
Then you turned around just like that
You're treatin' Eddie like a worn-out hat
You're a two-time lover and a full-time flirt
You ain't nothin' but a schemer in a very tight skirt
But I'm gonna go and do the town
I won't stand for your foolin' around

I'm a-waitin' around, nothin' to do
Lookin' at your picture, thinkin' of you
Spinnin' like wheels, waitin' for a date
Wonderin' how I'll make it till tonight at eight
'Cause I can't wait, till I get you in my arms tonight
I can't wait, till you tell me that my kiss is right
I can't wait, 'cause I need your love so bad
You're the livin' end, you're the golden rule
I been a-diggin' your style, it's nothin' but cool
I'm a twiddlin' my thumbs, blowin' my top
Baby you're the only one can make me stop
'Cause I can't wait, till I get you in my arms tonight
I can't wait, till you tell me that my kiss is right
I can't wait, 'cause I need your love so bad
The clock's strikin' five, three hours to go
I wonder if you're home, I'd sure like to know
I'm nervous as a cat, lookin' for a mouse
Maybe I'll see you if I walk by your house
'Cause I can't wait, till I get you in my arms tonight
I can't wait, till you tell me that my kiss is right
I can't wait, 'cause I need your love so bad
I'm a hurryin' baby, I'm a hurryin' baby
I just gotta see ya, oh baby

Hurry up, before I get another date
Hurry up, well it's gettin' awful late
Well I told you when I walked you home
And I told you on the telephone
That I'd be here at a quarter to nine
Oh little girl ain't you ever on time
Nothin' bugs me baby like a-havin' to wait
But it always seems to happen everytime we have a date
Hurry up, well c'mon let's go
Hurry up, we'll be late for the show
Hurry up, oh yeah, hurry up
We got to the movie baby wouldn't you know
The only seats I saw were in the very last row
I there sat down and I tried to watch the show

My friend and I was partyin' at the edge of town
I saw a pretty little girl that looked up and down
I said girl how'd ya do, I'd like to know
Oh how'd ya do, oh how'd ya do
Well my friend he told me I didn't have a chance
But I knew this chick was a-ready to romance
I said well how'd ya do, come dance with me
Oh how'd ya do, come dance with me
Well we got acquainted and we went outside
We got in my car and we went for a ride
I said well how'd ya do with a big embrace
A big embrace, she slapped my face
Well my friend was waitin' at the dance for me
I turned my face so he couldn't see
He said well how'd ya do, you're back alone
Oh how'd ya do, I took her home
And you were right, we had a fight
That's all right, I did what's right

Honey, listen to me
'Cause I gotta tell you what you're doin' to me
I love you so, I just gotta let you know
Honey, honey
Squeeze me, tease me
Anything you do is gonna please me
I wish you would, 'cause it feels so good
When you squeeze me, squeeze me
I used to think that you were so meek and mild
But now I'm in your arms just like a little child
And everytime you kiss me it drives me wild
That's why I love you so
Let me call you honey, honey-honey
I can't get enough of you honey
Won't you say once again that you love me and then
Call me honey, honey
I used to think that you were so*
But now I'm in your arms just like a little child
And everytime you kiss me it drives me wild
That's why I love you so
Let me call you honey, honey-honey
I can't get enough of you honey
Won't you say once again that you love me and then
Call me honey, honey
Won't you say once again that you love me and then

Oh baby let's play some hide and go seek
Seen an alligator go jumpin' in the river
Singin' a song about five, ten, fifteen, twenty
Twenty-five, thirty, thirty-five, fourty, fourty-five
Fifty, fifty-five, sixty, sixty-five, seventy, seventy-five
Eighty, eighty-five, ninety, ninety-five, a hundred
I ain't gonna count but one more time
And that's gonna be when the sun goes down
I say last night and the night before
Twenty—four hours knock in' on the door
I ran upstairs to get my gun
And when I got back the robbers had run
Didn't go east, didn't go west
They must have run back to the robbers' nest
Oh, I'm gonna catch you this time honey
I ain't gonna count but one more time
I'm gonna get you sweetie pie
I'm gonna catch you, yes I'll do
Please don't let me search for you
I say last night and the night before
Twenty-four hours knockin' on the door
I ran upstairs to get my gun
And when I got back the robbers had run
Didn't go east, didn't go west

Heartbreakin' mama-mama, how does your garden grow
Heartbreakin' mama-mama, how does your garden grow
With all your broken hearted lovers standin' in a row
Well out stands Johnny, out stands Jim
Out stands Harry, take a look at him
Well out stands Bobby, out stands Lee
The next one baby, well there stands me
Heartbreakin' mama-mama, how does your garden grow
With all your broken hearted lovers standin' in a row
Well out stands Larry, out stands All
Remember when you took him from your best friend Sal
Out stands Willy, out stands Pete
You picked a garden baby-baby, can't be beat
Heartbreakin' mama-mama, how does your garden grow
With all your broken hearted lovers standin' in a row
(Well let's rock it! )
Heartbreakin' mama-mama, you better change your ways
Heartbreakin' mama-mama, you' re gonna cry someday
Heartbreakin' mama-mama, you're gonna cry

Goodbye bye bye bye forever
Goodbye bye bye bye my love
How can you say you still love me
When seen in the arms of a friend
The flame that burns for me is dying slowly
It's time we both wake up, let's not pretend
Goodbye bye bye bye forever
Goodbye bye bye bye my love
We're fooling ourselves just by thinking
Let's not pretend anymore
You can stop writing me letters
I took my phone off the hook
I don't have time to play around with romance
It's love I want, so please let's not pretend
Goodbye bye bye bye forever
Goodbye bye bye bye my love
We're fooling ourselves just by thinking

You ask me when I knew
I was in love with you (with you, with you)
Well, when the world began
I was dreaming even then of you (of you, of you)
And then as time went on (went on)
I knew you'd come along (along, along)
For you couldn't stay away
When you knew I felt the way I do (I do, I do, I do)
For just how long has there been a moon
And the stars in the sky up above (doo-dee-yup)
So if I tell you when I knew (doo-dee-yup)
That would be how long I'd love
Oh, when the world began (began)
And everything was new (was new, was new)
Well, I was dreaming even then
And I knew I was in love with you (with you, with you)
For just how long has there been a moon
And the stars in the sky up above (doo-dee-yup)
So if I tell you when I knew (doo-dee-yup)
That would be how long I'd love
Oh, when the world began (began)
And everything was new (was new, was new)
Well, I was dreaming even then

You ask me if I'm lonesome, you say you're feelin' blue
Go get lost little baby doll, I don't wanna mess with you
I'm drownin' all my sorrows, I wanna be left alone
For the one I love has left me
She won't even answer the phone
You ask me why I'm cryin', you just don't understand
The one I thought was mine alone has found her another man
I'm drownin' all my sorrows, the lights are gettin' kinda dim
She left me for another, I bet she'll do the same thing to him
I'll never trust a woman, they never can be true
They take your money, break your heart
And leave you feelin' blue
I'm drownin' all my sorrows, I guess a guy like me can't win
I don't know where I'm goin', I don't even know where I been
Well my poor head is achin', I just can't seem to think
Pour me out a double please and pour this little gal a drink
I've drowned all my sorrows and now I'm gonna have a plain

Wet rains the tear into my eyes, when I began to realise
I cried so much since you been gone
I guess I'll drown in my own tears
I've really cried just like a child
My poor little tears are running wild
If you don't think you'll be home soon
I guess I'll drown, oh-yeah, in my own tears
I know it's true, into each life
Wow, some rain, rain must fall
Clouds over here whithout you
It keeps a-rainin' more and more
Why can 't you come on home, oh-yes, so I won't be all alone
If you don't think, you'll be home soon
I guess I'll (drown in my own tears)
Oh don't let me (drown in my own tears)
When I'm in trouble baby (drown in my own tears)

Ma and pa, now here you all go again
Givin' a party tryin' to impress your friends
We been tryin' to figure what you spent
This party must have cost a pretty cent
Howlin', rack 'em back, let 'em stack, runnin' around again
Rack 'em back, let 'em stack, runnin' around again
Sssh, don't wake up the kids please
Look at them doin' that ol' time jitterbug
Tearin' up a brandnew livingroom rug
And when they find that hole burned in the chair
You'd swear with all your might we put it there
Howlin'. rack 'em back, let 'em stack, runnin' around again
Rack 'em back, let 'em stack, runnin' around again
Sssh, don't wake up them kids you all
Thinkin' there was a recession goin' on
What you gonna do when all your loot is gone
You call all four of us a bunch of cranks
When we don't let you rob our piggy banks
Howlin', rack 'em back, let 'em stack, runnin' around again
Rack 'em back, let 'em stack, runnin' around again
Don't wake up them kids you all please
Wah, all the kids are peekin' through the crack
The baby found a cushion in the back
From the way he looked we got a hunch
He must have got a hold of some of your punch
Howlin', rack 'em back, let 'em stack, runnin' around again
Rack 'em back, let 'em stack, runnin' around again
Sssh, don't wake up the kids, don't wake up the kids
Help your parents and all you grab a broom
While we do that dirty living room
And don't you make no noise while you sweep
You know your father's ill, he's tryin' to sleep
Howlin', rack 'em back, let 'em stack, runnin' around again
Rack 'em back, let 'em stack, runnin' around again

Love me true, don't ever let me go
Go from you, please don't forget me
Love me true, don't ever let me go (go-go-go)
Let me go (go-go)
Love me long, don't ever leave me
Love me strong, don't ever grieve me
Love me true, don't ever let me go (go-go-go)
Let me go (go-go)
Oh, you may see a lot of boys
When you're out at night
Honey don't forget your promise
You'll treat me right
And when you're walkin' all alone
Just stay out sight

Don't be bashful little girl, won't-won't you say hello
Don't you see me lookin' at the one I could love so
Woh-woh-won't you let me hold your hand
Try-y--y to steal a kiss or two
Maybe-baby, little baby maybe we could fall in love
Like I'm fallin' in love with you
Don't be bashful little girl, you look so all alone
Let me be the one tonight, the one to take you home
Woh-woh-won't you let me hold your hand
Try-y-y to steal a kiss or two
And maybe-baby, little baby maybe we could fall in love
Like I'm fallin' in love with you
Like I'm fallin' in love with you
