I want to go home
Where I belong
'Cause now I'm just a lonely teenager
When I was 16 ran away
All alone on a stray
What can I do what can I say
I'm a lonely teenager
Now I'm 17 still alone
Wondering if I should go home
Or maybe stay out on my own
I'm a lonely teenager
I'd love to go back home (back home)
Where I belong (back home)
I know I'd be alright
If I just stay out of sight
I want to go home
Where I belong
'Cause now I'm just a lonely teenager
(I want to go back home
Just let me go back home)
I'd love to go back home (back home)
Where I belong (back home)
I know I'd be alright
If I just stay out of sight
I want to go home
Where I belong
'Cause now I'm just a lonely teenager
(I want to go back home
Please let me go back home)
Has anybody here seen my old friend Abraham?
Can you tell me where he's gone?
He freed a lot of people,
But it seems the good they die young.
You know, I just looked around and he's gone.
Anybody here seen my old friend John?
Can you tell me where he's gone?
He freed a lot of people,
But it seems the good they die young.
I just looked around and he's gone.
Anybody here seen my old friend Martin?
Can you tell me where he's gone?
He freed a lot of people,
But it seems the good they die young.
I just looked 'round and he's gone.
Didn't you love the things that they stood for?
Didn't they try to find some good for you and me?
And we'll be free
Some day soon, and it's a-gonna be one day ...
Anybody here seen my old friend Bobby?
Can you tell me where he's gone?
I thought I saw him walk up over the hill,
Life is so strange
With it's up and downs
And today's hero
May be tomorrow's clown
Friends keep on telling me
That I'm a fool to be
So in love while
You're just having fun
I'll spend each lonely night
Longing to hold you tight
Morning finds me
Crying to the sun
But I'll find somebody new
And I'll get over you
Then my broken heart
Will hurt no more
Someday you'll realize
I was the one
Then you'll be crying
While I'm having fun
You know
Someday you're gonna realize
That I was the one
Then you'll be crying
[Chorus: x2]
Shout
Shout
Let it aloud
These are the things I can do without
Come on
I'm talking to you
Come on
In violent times
You shouldn't have to sell your soul
In black and white
They really really ought to know
Those one track minds
That took you for a working boy
Kiss them goodbye
You shouldn't have to jump for joy
You shouldn't have to jump for joy
[Chorus]
They gave you life
And in return you gave them hell
As cold as ice
I hope we live to tell the tale
I hope we live to tell the tale
[Chorus: x2]
And when you've taken down your guard
If I could change your mind
I'd really love to break your heart
I'd really love to break your heart
Moon River, wider than a mile,
I'm crossing you in style some day.
Oh, dream maker, you heart breaker,
wherever you're going I'm going your way.
Two drifters off to see the world.
There's such a lot of world to see.
We're after the same rainbow's end--
waiting 'round the bend,
my huckleberry friend,
Fools rush in
Where angels fear to tread
And so i come to you my love
My heart above my head
Though i see
The danger there
If theres a chance for me
Then i dont care
Fools rush in
Where wise men never go
But wise men never fall in love
So how are they to know
When we met
I felt my life begin
So open up your heart and let
This fool rush in
When we met
I felt my life begin
So open up your heart and let
Kiss my lips, hold my hand
Tell me you love me, I'm your loverman
I'm in love, in love with a wonderful girl
My heart is in pain
All my love is in all in vain
I'm in love, in love with a wonderful girl
Oh yes, wonderful girl
So baby, those feeling, yes, those feelings
They run up and down my spine
So, baby, they say, yes, they say
They make me lose my heart
You're my love, you're my love
Believe me, I'll swear it by the stars above
'Cause I'm in love, in love with a wonderful girl
It seems the whole world wants to turn their backs on me
Can't seem to find someone to give a little love to me
(La la la la la la ooo) (backing over wo-oh's by Dion)
Wonderin' just what to do, wonderin' just where to go
Waiting here all alone, waiting for love to show
Will love ever ever come my way?
Looking for someone's love, looking so hard I cry
Wanting someone to care, wanting as time goes by
Will love ever ever come my way?
I'm just like a lonely drifter, I'm goin' on my way
Hoping that I will find love someday, some way
Dreaming of love & fun, dreaming the long nights through
Wishing on stars above, wishing sounds sad but true
Will love ever ever come my way?
The snow's coming down
I'm watching it fall
Watching the people around
Baby please come home
The church bells in town
They're ringing a song
What a happy sound
Baby please come home
They're singing deck the halls
But it's not like Christmas at all
I remember when you were here
All the fun we had last year
Pretty lights on the tree
I'm watching them shine
You should be here with me
Baby please come home
Baby please come home
They're singing deck the halls
But it's not like christmas at all
I remember when you were here
All the fun we had last year
If there was a way
I'd hold back these tears
But it's Christmas day
Baby please come home
Baby please come home
Woke up this mornin`
I was feelin` around for my shoes
I knew I had them
Mean `ol walkin` blues
But I woke up this mornin`
I was feeling around for my shoes
I know I had them
Mean ol` walkin` blues
Don`t ever let her tell you
That the worried blues ain`t bad
It`s the worst old feeling
That I most ever had
Don`t ever let `em tell you
That the worried blues ain`t bad
It`s the worst old feeling
I most ever had
Well I`m leaving Jonesboro
If I have to ride the blind
I`ve been mistreated
And I don`t mind dyin`
Well I`m leaving Jonesboro
If I have to ride the blind
I`ve been mistreated
And I don`t mind dyin`
She`s got an Elgin movement
From her head down to her toes
Breakin` on a dollar
Any where she goes
She got a Elgin movement
From her head down to her toes
She break in on a dollar
Any where she goes
Woke up this mornin`
I was feelin` around for my shoes
I knew I had them
Mean ol` walkin` blues
But I woke up this mornin`
I was feelin` around for my shoes
I knew I had them
I guess we can't help it
The moment just found us
The timing was perfect, the energy boundless
We both read each other, words aren't necessary
Like dancers in rhyme, we're involuntary
We think as one person without concentrating
I'm high on your laughter, it's intoxicating
We walk on the ceiling, the walls can't contain us
Together we're flying, the angels can claim us
You bring the dream
I'll bring the power
We'll blend it together
We'll build a tower of love
You'll bring passion
I'll bring desire
Then we'll light the sunrise, turn it to fire
And love
Turn it to love
You see the rhythm fits perfect, it's cooperation
I can't stand in one place, it's anticipation
With all of this feeling, the whole world can't cage us
My heart beats with your heart and it's contagious
Chorus::
We Don't Talk Anymore
We don't get it out
We just turn it away
What's this life all about
We Don't Talk Anymore
We Don't Talk Anymore
Repeat Chorus:
Lovin' her has turned into a game
She does her thing and I do the same
You know it ain't like it used to be
She done everything but set me free
Repeat Chorus:
I stagger in and it's quarter to four
I know she heard me, I slammed the back door
But she'll just turn over and softly cry
I used to love her, now I don't try
Repeat Chorus:
We turn it away
It seems we stood and talked like this before
We looked at each other in the same way then
But I can't remember where or when
The clothes you're wearing are the clothes you wore
The smile you are smiling you were smiling then
But I can't remember where or when
Some things that happen for the first time
Seem to be happening again
And so it seems that we have met before
And laughed before
And loved before
When a star is born
They possess a gift or two
One of them is this
They have the power to make a wish come true
When you wish upon a star
Makes no diff'rence who you are
Anything your heart desires will come to you
If your heart is in your dream
No request is too extreme
When you wish upon a star
As dreamers do
Fate is kind
She brings to those who love
The sweet fulfillment of their secret longing
Like a bolt out of the blue
Fate steps in and sees you thru
When you wish upon a star
Your dreams come true
When you wish upon a star
Makes no diff'rence who you are
Anything your heart desires will come to you
If your heart is in your dream
No request is too extreme
When you wish upon a star
As dreamers do
Fate is kind
She brings to those who love
The sweet fulfillment of their secret longing
Like a bolt out of the blue
Fate steps in and sees you thru
When you wish upon a star
Oh well, I'm the type of guy who will never settle down
Where pretty girls are well, you know that I'm around
I kiss 'em and I love 'em 'cause to me they're all the same
I hug 'em and I squeeze 'em they don't even know my name
They call me the wanderer
Yeah, the wanderer
I roam around, around, around
Oh well, there's Flo on my left and there's Mary on my right
And Janie is the girl with that I'll be with tonight
And when she asks me, which one I love the best?
I tear open my shirt I got Rosie on my chest
'Cause I'm the wanderer
Yeah, the wanderer
I roam around, around, around
Oh well, I roam from town to town
I go through life without a care
And I'm as happy as a clown
I with my two fists of iron and I'm going nowhere
I'm the type of guy that likes to roam around
I'm never in one place, I roam from town to town
And when I find myself fallin' for some girl
I hop right into that car of mine and ride around the world
Yeah I'm the wanderer
Yeah, the wanderer
I roam around, around, around
Oh yeah, I'm the type of guy that likes to roam around
I'm never in one place, I roam from town to town
And when I find myself a-fallin' for some girl
I hop right into that car of mine and drive around the world
Yeah, 'cause I'm a wanderer
Yeah, a wanderer
I roam around, around, around
'Cause I'm a wanderer
Yeah, a wanderer
I roam around, around, around
'Cause I'm a wanderer
Yeah, a wanderer
To spend one night with you in our old rendezvous,
And reminisce with you That's My Desire.
To meet where gypsies play, down in that dim cafe,
And dance 'till break of day That's My Desire.
We'll sip a little glass of wine, I'll gaze into your
eyes divine.
I'll feel the touch of your lips pressing on mine.
To hear you whisper low just when it's time to go,
Gypsy girl, the hands of Harlem cannot hold you to its
heat
Your temperature Is too hot for taming
Your flaming feet, they're burnin' up the street
And l am homeless, come and take me
To the reach of your rattling drums
Let me know, babe, all about my fortune
all along my restless palms
Gypsy girl, you got me swallowed
and I have fallen far beneath
Your pearly eyes so fast an slashing
and your flashing diamond teeth
The night Is pitch black
Come and make my pale face fit In place ah, please
and let me know, babe
Am I merely drowning
for it's you that my lifelines trace
You have slayed me
You have made me
I've got to laugh halfways off my heels
I've got to know, babe
Come here end touch me
You got a smile so bright
You know you could have been a candle
I`m holding you so tight
You know you could have been a handle
The way you swept me off my feet
You know you could`ve been a broom
And babe you smell so sweet
You know you could`ve been some perfume
Well you could of been anything that you wanted to
I can tell
The way you do the things you do
As pretty as you are
You know you could`ve been a flower
If good looks were minutes
You know you could have been an hour
The way you stole my heart
You know you could have been a crook
And baby your so smart
You know you could have been a school book
Well you could of been anything that you wanted to
I can tell
The way you do the things you do
Well you could of been .......
You make my life so rich
You know you could`ve been some money
And baby you`re so sweet
You know you could have been some honey
Well you could of been anything that you wanted to
I can tell
The way you do the things you do
Well you could of been .......
As pretty as you are
You know you could`ve been a flower
If good looks were minutes
You know you could have been an hour
The way you stole my heart
You know you could have been a crook
And baby your so smart
You know you could have been a school book
Well you could of been anything that you wanted to
I can tell
The way you do the things you do
linda taught me geometric tables
But only you said, let's begin again"
Karen demonstrated every dance step
Laura bought me all that money could buy
Sherry cooked dinners like a French gourmet
But only you could see through every lie.
Chorus:
Maybe that's the pattern of my lifeline
Maybe I've been misled far too long
Now you and I can find the truth on down the line
It makes no difference If sometimes we're wrong.
Jeannie knew the wild inside of summer
Carol claimed her health foods made me well
Gina lost herself In books to guide her
But only you knew more than they could tell.
This old world may never change
Not the way it's been
And all the ways of war
Can't change it back again
I've been searching for the dolphins in the sea
Sometimes I wonder do you ever think of me
I'm not the one to tell this world
How to get along
I only know that peace will come
When all hate is gone
I've been searching for the dolphins in the sea
Sometimes I wonder do you ever think of me
Sometimes I think about
Saturday's child
And all about the times
When we were running wild
I've been searching for the dolphins in the sea
Sometimes I wonder do you ever think of me
This old world may never change
She was just sixteen, had to quit high school
'Cause she just couldn't hack it
Hangin' out on the New York streets
With a punk in a leather jacket
She likes to tease, Manhattan queen
By the johns in the discotheques
Burnin' hips to turn soft tricks
Sellin' coke and bouncin' checks
Chorus::
Street Mama. Street Mama
Look at yourself, you're livin' in the New York Times
Street Mama, Street Mama
Look at yourself, you're livin' in the New York Times
She met a dude in a rock and roll band
That got her on the health board file
You know it ain't no fun in a dirty city
When you're wearin' a contagious smile
Now what's this jive 'bout stayin' alive?
I'm payin' my dues
She'll go the whole route
'Till she finally checks out
And you can read it in the Daily News
Repeat Chorus:
What': this jive 'bout stayin' alive?
She said "Man I'm only payin' my dues
You go the whole route till you finally check out
Wake up momma, turn your lamp down low;
Wake up momma, turn your lamp down low.
You got no nerve baby, to turn uncle john from your door.
I woke up this morning, I had them statesboro blues,
I woke up this morning, had them statesboro blues.
Well, I looked over in the corner, and grandpa seemed to
have them too.
Well my momma died and left me,
My poppa died and left me,
I ain't good looking baby,
Want someone sweet and kind.
I'm goin' to the country, baby do you wanna go?
But if you can't make it baby, your sister lucille said
she wanna go.
(and I sure will take her).
I love that woman, better than any woman I've ever seen;
Well, I love that woman, better than any woman I've ever
seen.
Well, now, she treat me like a king, yeah, yeah, yeah,
I treat her like a dog gone queen.
Wake up momma, turn your lamp down low.
Wake up momma, turn your lamp down low.
I want a Sunday kind of love
A love to last past Saturday night
And I'd like to know it's more than love at first sight
I want a Sunday kind of love oh yeah
I want a love that's on the square
Can't seem to find somebody someone to care
And I'm on a lonely road that leads to nowhere
I need a Sunday kind of love
I do all my Sunday dreaming
And all my Sunday scheming
Every minute, every hour, every day
And I'm hopin' to discover
A certain kind of lover
Who will show me the way
And my arms need someone to enfold
To help keep me warm
When Mondays, and Tuesdays grow cold
And I need a love for all my life
To have and to hold
I need a Sunday kind of love
I do all my Sunday dreaming
And all my Sunday scheming
Every minute, every hour, every day
And I'm hopin' to discover
A certain kind of lover
Who will show me the way
And my arms need someone to enfold
To help keep me warm
When Mondays, and Tuesdays grow cold
And I need a love for all my life
To have and to hold
I need a Sunday kind of love
I don't want a Monday or a Tuesday
A Wednesday or a Thursday
Friday or Saturday
I don't want nothin' baby
It could be a spoonful of diamonds, yeah
Could be a spoonful of gold
Just a little spoon of your precious love
Satisfies my soul
CHORUS:
Men lie about it, ooo they cry about it
Even die about it, everybody fights about it
Ooo that spoon, that spoon, that spoonful
Well t could be a spoonful of water
Saved from the desert sand
But just a little spoon of that 45
Seedy from another man
Well it could be a spoonful of coffee
Could be a spoonful of tea
But just a little spoon of your precious love, baby
I just came back from a lovely trip along the Milky Way
Stopped off at the North Pole to spend a holiday
I called on dear old Santa Claus
To see what I could see
He took me to his workshop
And told his plans to me. So
[Chorus]
You better watch out, you better not cry
Better not pout, I'm telling you why
Santa Claus is comin' to town
He's making a list and checking it twice
Gonna find out who's naughty and nice
Santa Claus is comin to town
He sees you when you're sleepin'
He knows when you're a wake
He knows if you've been bad or good
So be good for goodness sake
Oh! You better watch out, you better not cry
Better not pout, I'm telling you why
Santa Claus is comin' to town
With little tin horns and little toy drums
Rooty toot toots and rummy tum tums
Santa Claus is comin' to town
And curly head dolls that toddle and coo
Elephants, boats, and kiddie cars too
Santa Claus is comin' to town
Then kids in Girl and Boy land will have a jubilee
They're gonna build a Toyland all around the Christmas
tree
So! You better watch out, you better not cry
Better not pout, I'm telling you why
Santa Claus is comin to town
Now Santa is a busy man, He has no time to play
He's got millions of stockings to fill on Christmas day
You'd better write your letter now
And mail it right away
Because he's getting ready
His reindeers and his sleigh. So
[Chorus]
With little tin horns and little toy drums
Rooty toot toots and rummy tum tums
Santa Claus is comin' to town
And curly head dolls that toddle and coo
Elephants, boats, and kiddie cars too
Santa Claus is comin' to town
Then kids in Girl and Boy land will have a jubilee
They're gonna build a Toyland all around the Christmas
tree
So! You better watch out, you better not cry
Better not pout, I'm telling you why
Why must I love you so much?

Purple haze
Running through my brain
Somehow, people, lately
Things don't seem the same
I'm acting funny
And found the reason why
Excuse me while
I kiss the sky
Purple haze
Now it's coming all around
Don't know whether of if
I'm coming up or down
Somebody, am I happy
Or am I in misery
Whatever it is
She put a spell on me
Put a spell on me
Dear, I thought I’d drop a line
The weather’s cool, the folks are fine
I’m in bed each night at nine
PS I love you
Yesterday we had some rain
But all in all, I can’t complain
Was it dusty on the train?
PS I love you
Write to the Browns
Just as soon as you’re able
They came around to call
I burned a hole in the dining room table
Now let me see, I guess that’s all
Nothing else for me to say
And so I’ll close now but, by the way
Everybody’s thinking of you
PS I love you
Write to the Browns
Just as soon as you’re able
They came around to call
Oh yes, I burned a hole in the dining room table
Now let me see, I guess that’s all
Nothing else for me to say
And so I’ll close but darling, by the way
Everybody’s thinking of you

Rockin' around the Christmas tree at the Christmas
party hop
Mistletoe hung where you can see every couple tries to
stop
Rockin' around the Christmas tree let the Christmas
spirit ring
Later we'll have some pumpkin pie and we'll do some
caroling
You will get a sentimental feeling, when you hear
voices singing
"Let's be jolly, deck the halls with boughs of holly"
Rockin' around the Christmas tree, have a happy holiday
Everyone's dancing merrily in the new old-fashioned
way, hey
You will get a sentimental feeling, when you hear
voices singing
"Let's be jolly, deck the halls with boughs of holly"
Rockin' around the Christmas tree at the Christmas
party hop
Mistletoe hung where you can see every couple tries to
stop
Rocking around the Christmas tree have a happy holiday
Everyone's dancing merrily in the new old-fashioned way
Rocking around the Christmas tree have a happy holiday

Through nights of irresponsibility and a lack of self-
control
I feared the friends I ran with, but I loved to live
the role
Five of us in Levi jeans who passed on basketball
We all lived on Presley's 45s and were beckoned to the
call
Every night was Halloween when they picked me up at
eight
We raced the moon to madness before midnight made our
fate
Drinking beer and smoking burned-Out butts till the
Camels killed our lungs
The liquor sent us spinning out and brought a thickness
to our tongues.
Chorus:
Roamin' in the halls
Rackin' up the balls
Climbln' up the walls
Don't you hear the calls
Lookin' for a place to hang
The Midtown American Main Street Gang
An afternoon of boredom was cured by a quarter and a
Stealing things form the counter top when there was
nothing else to do
Bobby knocked up Sheri, we ushered him out one day
And Dave and Johnny took the buddy system and they went
the Army way
Two stolen cars took Larry, he got three to five for
each
I came to grips with growin' up, but it's still too far
to reach
The memory's old and the story's told in all the songs
that Presley sang
Are you puttin' me on, is the DA gone, like the Midtown
American Main Street Gang?
No one knows what I go through
And the tears I cried for you
And when I smile, it's just a pose
My heart is breaking but no one knows
Friends won't learn the truth from me
I don't want their sympathy
You go to parties, dances and shows
I still love you but no one knows
Maybe some how, some time, some where
You'll walk by and hear my prayer
My loneliness will fade away
Darling please tell me you'll stay
But if you should pass me by
I'll be hurt but I won't cry
And though my love for you still grows
The very thought of you makes my heart sing
Like an April breeze on the wings of spring,
And you appear in all your splendor,
My one and only love.
The shadows fall and spread their mystic charms
In the hush of night while you're in my arms.
I feel your lips, so warm and tender,
My one and only love.
The touch of your hand is like heaven,
A heaven that I've never known.
The blush on your cheek whenever I speak
Tells me that you are my own.
You fill my eager heart with such desire.
Ev'ry kiss you give sets my soul on fire.
I give myself in sweet surrender,
(Doo-doo-wah's by backup singers, wo's by Dion)
I'm just a fool searchin' for someone to care
I've searched the whole world over, but you don't hear my
prayer
Wo yeah (searching for my love)
Uh huh (girl I'm dreaming of)
Oh in my lonely world (lonely world, lonely world)
Wo I'm tired of bein' lonely; I want someone to love
No matter who's beside me, it's you I'm thinkin' of
Wo yeah (searching for my love)
Uh huh (girl I'm dreaming of)
Oh in my lonely world (lonely world, lonely world)
Wo you know my world kind of falls apart
'Cause you love someone else
Yeah my heart, my soul, my whole world was you
You mean more than life itself
No one will ever know, dear, the suff'ring I go through
I suffer most of all 'cause I can't stop loving you
Wo yeah (searching for my love)
Uh huh (girl I'm dreaming of)
Oh in my lonely world (lonely world, lonely world)
(Wo's by Dion, singing of title by backup singers, fading

Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bells swing and jingle bells ring
Snowing and blowing up bushels of fun
Now the jingle hop has begun
Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bells chime in jingle bell time
Dancing and prancing in Jingle Bell Square
In the frosty air
What a bright time, it's the right time
To rock the night away
Jingle bell time is a swell time
To go gliding in a one-horse sleigh
Giddy-up jingle horse, pick up your feet
Jingle around the clock
Mix and a-mingle in the jingling feet
That's the jingle bell rock
What a bright time, it's the right time
To rock the night away
This jingle bell time is a swell time
To go gliding in a one-horse sleigh
Oh, giddy-up jingle horse, pick up your feet
Jingle around the clock
Mix and a-mingle in the jingling feet
That’s the jingle bell, that’s the jingle bell
When she kissed me I was born and she said goodbye
And I knew right away I was born to cry
Now I'm happy and the joke's on her
Cause I found that place for lover's who wander
She took my love, said she's not comin back
So my world and my sky was all turnin black
Now I see the light, I'm wise to her
Cause I found that place for lovers who wander
A walkin around thinkin about her
Never thought I could live without her
She broke my heart, I really showed it
Look at me now, you'd never know it
Now my story can be told with a smiling face
I'm the luckiest guy in the human race
My dreams have gone for her
Cause I found that place for lover's who wander
Wo wo wo yeah, she took my love you see
Yeah, she doesn't bother me
Yeah I found that place to be
Yeah, ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Yeah walkin around thinkin about her
I never thought I could live without her
She broke my heart, I really showed it
Look at me now, you'd never know it
Now my story can be told with a smiling face
I'm the luckiest guy in the human race
All my lovin dreams have gone for her
Cause I found that place for lover's who wander
You know I gassed her up, I'm behind the wheel
With my arm around my baby In my Oldsmobile
And I'm cruisin' down the boulevard, looking for the
heart of Saturday night,
I got paid on Friday and my pockets they're jingling
The bright lights of the city. I feel all a-tingling
And I'm moving down the boulevard looking for the heart
of Saturday night.
Take my arm
Looking for the heart of Saturday night.
Put on your light French jeans
Sweet baby blue
Oo Ia Ia, here's looking at you
Moving down the boulevard looking at the heart of
Saturday night.
You know I combed my hair and shaved my face
I want to wipe out every trace
Of all the other days in the week Tins gonna be the one
night I be reacinn' my peak.
Stop on the red
Pick up on the green
I'm gonna be the something you ain't never seen, babe
Barrelling down the boulevard looking for the heart of
Saturday night.
Take my arm
Moving down the boulevard looking for the heart of
Saturday night.
Is It the crack of the pool balls?
Is it the neon buzzin'?
Is it the jazz man playing?
Is it my second cousin?
The bar maid is smiling in the corner of her eye
Is it the melancholy tear that I see in her eye?
It makes me kind of quiver down in the corn
Thinking of the Saturdays that have gone down before
Moving on down the, boulevard looking for the heart of
Saturday night
Moving on down the boulevard looking for the heart of
Saturday night ,
I've got diamonds, pearls, I've got dancing girls,
It's all because I'm a king.
People bow before me and the world ignores me
But I don't have everything.
I'm a king, a king without a queen.
I sit here alone way up on my throne
With my crown held high.
But I need a girl who will share my world
And stay with me till I die.
I'm a king, a king without a queen.
I said a king is just a man if he is here all alone.
A man can be a king if he has love of his own.
Though I have everything a rich man will die
You are much happier than I
So don't envy me all these things you see
Just because I'm a king.
What I need so much is a lovin' touch,
It would mean everything.
She's a kind of friend
She don't ask me where I'm goin
She don't ask me where I've been
Oh she knows I can't be led
We live as 2, gettin' 2 souls fed
Well she's a kickin' child
Gee it's a cold 100, a little girl goes so wild
Well she don't want no lies
She don't change to daylight savings time, no she don't
She's satisfied just to be till we say goodbye
'Cause she's a kickin' child
Gee it's a cold 100, a little girl goes so wild
Well you kind of women tryin' to get control of me
Trample me down like a wild rag queen
All that powder, perfume & paint
Makes me think you are what you ain't
My baby don't hop on me
Don't try to ruin a fool, she just leaves me be
Oh she does somethin' to my heart
Well she's a rollin' stone & tears me all apart
She's a kickin' child
Gee it's a cold 100, a little girl goes so wild
With a smile, goes so wild
(instrumental)
Well you kind of women tryin' to call you joy
By usin' your man for your whippin' boy
I'm gonna tell you babies, there'll come a day
You're gonna run up a bill your head can't pay
My baby don't hop on me
She knows I'm here, she just leaves me be
Oh she does somethin' to my heart
She's a rollin' stone & tears me all apart
But he's a kickin' child
Oh it's a cold 100, a little girl goes so wild
Kansas City with a friend of mine
We loved the women and we had a good time
Then the trouble started with the gun
Kansas City with a friend of mine
We drank some whiskey and we really felt fine
Then we started leaving on the run.
Hey Ho Yippeeiayay
He shot up Kansas City on a very fine day
Hey Ho Yippeeiayay
He shot up Kansas City on a very fine day
He shot up Kansas City on a very fine day
He shot up Kansas City on a very fine day
Kansas City with a friend of mine
We loved for a dollar and we drank for a dime
Now I'm headin' down to Santa Fe
Kansas City with a friend of mine
We left too late cut it mighty fine
Texas seemed the safest place to be.
Hey Ho Yippeeiayay
He shot up . . .
Kansas City with a friend of mine
It started rainin' turned the mud to slime
Now I'm headin' straight through Tennessee
Kansas City with a friend of mine
Now I'm headin' straight down the line
Nothin' more in Kansas left for me
Hey Ho Yippeeiayay
Diane...Down deep inside I cry
Diane...Without your love I'd die
Diane...You know you drive me wild...Diane
You're such a little evil child ya ya ya
Ya, I wanna pack and leave and slap your face
Bad girls like you are a disgrace
A way down deep inside I cry
Without you little Diane I'd die
I should drag you down 'cause you're no good
You're two-faced, your heart's made of wood
A way down deep inside I cry
Without you little Diane I'd die
Listen to my heart
Oh you're tearin' it apart
Oh why don't you understand
Why don't you stop it! stop it!
Stop it if you can
I want to spread the news that you're untrue
But Diane what good would it do
'Cause way down deep inside I cry
Without you little Diane I'd die, I'd die
Ya! Don't you understand Diane
I said ya, ya, ya
I said listen to the beat
Oh I feel it in my feet
Now it's my heart Diane
Why don't you stop it! stop it!
Stop it if you can
I want to spread the news that you're untrue
But Diane what good would it do
'Cause way down deep inside I cry
Without you little Diane I'd die, I'd die
Holly Brown, Holly Brown,
Tell me, is the world really round?
Holly Brown, Holly Brown,
Is the world really round?
Every time you kiss me baby,
I come ten feet off the ground.
Holly Brown, Holly Brown,
Tell me why do bluebirds really fly?
Holly Brown, Holly Brown,
Do bluebirds really fly?
Every time you look at me baby,
I want to lay right down and die.
You know I want one thing baby
You gotta understand.
I want to get close to you
Anyway I can.
Holly Brown, little girl,
Lips as soft as summer breeze.
When God made you
He was really pleased.
[Instrumental break]
Little girl, Holly Brown,
You know the D train goes downtown.
Holly Brown, Holly Brown,
You know the D train runs downtown.
You got a hold on me baby
Even when you're not around.
[Instrumental break]
Holly Brown, Holly Brown,
Do the bluebirds really fly?
Holly Brown, Holly Brown,
Tell me the bluebird really flies.
Every time you look at me baby,
Every kiss I ever kissed you
Darling, came from my heart
But your love was just a play
And the things I heard you say
Were all a part
Of the kissing game
(The kissing game)
The kissing game
(The kissing game)
Yeah, the game, baby
Where you just played at love
Oh, you never really loved me
Though you kissed me each night
You were looking for some fun
And I guess just anyone
To hold you tight
In the kissing game
(The kissing game)
Mmm, the kissing game
(The kissing game)
Yeah, a game, baby
Where you just played at love
Don't you know you
Shouldn't go with some guy
Just because he looks
Good to the crowd
Use his love for a stepping stone
Baby, don't feel proud
Because some day you're gonna cry
When you meet someone who
Will pour water on your flame
And play the kissing game
Mmm, with you
Don't you know you
Shouldn't go with some guy
Just because he looks
Good to the crowd
Use his love for a stepping stone
Baby, now, don't you feel proud
He'll pour water on your flame
And play the kissing game with you
Ah, the kissing game
The kissing game
Ah, that kissing game
I saw mommy kissing santa claus
Underneath the mistletoe last night
She didnt see me creep
Down the stairs to have a peep
She thought that I was tucked up
In my bedroom, fast asleep
Then I saw mommy tickle santa claus
Underneath his beard so snowy white
Oh, what a laugh it would have been
If daddy had only seen
Well, I wonder, what's exactly the matter
Child you know the time
Seemed like an hour
Everything had changed
But I hold up my head
Girl, I'm just trying to make you understand
Well now, everybody tell me
Somebody hoodoo'd the hoodoo man
Well now, I buzzed your bell this morning
You had your elevator run slow
I buzzed your bell in, woman
Take me on the third floor
Well, I hold up my head
Girl, I'm just trying to make you understand
Well now, everybody tell me
Somebody hoodoo'd the hoodoo man
Well, I buzzed your bell this morning
You had your elevator run slow
I buzzed your bell in, woman
Take me on the third floor
I hold up my head
Girl, I'm just trying to make you understand
Well now, everybody tell me
Somebody hoodoo'd the hoodoo man
Well, I wonder, what's exactly the matter
Child you know the time
Seemed like an hour
Everything had changed
I hold up my head
Girl, I'm just trying to make you understand
Well now, everybody tell me
In the still of the night as I gaze from my window
At the moon in its flight, my thoughts all stray to you
In the still of the night while the world is in slumber
Oh, the times without number, darling, when I say to you:
"Do you love me as I love you?
Are you my life-to-be, my dream come true?"
Or will this dream of mine fade out of sight
Like the moon growing dim on the rim of the hill
Don't know why I
Love you like I do
Don't know why I do
Don't know why I love you
Don't know why I care
I just want your love to share
I wonder why I
Love you like I do
Is it because I
Think you love me too
I wonder why I love you
Like I do, like I do
I told my friends
That we would never part
They often said that
You would break my heart
I wonder why they think that
We will part, we will part
When you're with me
I'm sure you're always true
When I'm away, I wonder what you do
I wonder why I'm sure you're
Always true, always true
I keep a close watch on this heart of mine
I keep my eyes wide open all the time
I keep the ends out for the tie that binds
Because you're mine I walk the line
I find it very, very easy to be true
I find myself alone when each day is through
Yes, I'll admit that I'm a fool for you
Because you're mine I walk the line
As sure as night is dark and day is light
I keep you on my mind both day and night
And happiness I've known proves that it's right
Because you're mine I walk the line
You've got a way to keep me on your side
You give me cause for love that I can't hide
For you I know I'd even try to turn the tide
Because you're mine I walk the line
I keep a close watch on this heart of mine
I keep my eyes wide open all the time
I keep the ends out for the tie that binds
Because you're mine I walk the line
Because you're mine I walk the line
I'm gettin' older day by day
It's comin' time to break away
So many things I want to do
On my own, I'm gonna make it alone, 'lone, 'lone
I'm gonna get myself a car
I'll travel near, I'll travel far
Just like the men I'll be free
On my own, I'm gonna make it alone, 'lone, 'lone
Wo wo wo yeah now
Wo wo wo yeah
Wo wo wo wo
Wo wo wo wo
I'll find a town to hang around
I'll be the man to shake my hand
The girls you find will all be mine
I'll make some money in a rush...yeah, be too much
I'm gonna get out of this place right now
It's gonna change my luck somehow
I'm gonna leave with no goodbyes
On my own, I'm gonna make it alone, 'lone, 'lone
Wo wo wo wo
Yeah yeah yeah yeah now
Wo wo wo wo
Wo wo wo wo
I'll find a town to hang around
I'll be the man to shake my hand
The girls you find will all be mine
I'll make some money in a rush...yeah, be too much
[Fade]
Every night I hope and pray
A dream lover will come my way
A girl to hold in my arms
And know the magic of her charms
'Cause I want
A girl
To call
My own
I want a dream lover
So I don't have to dream alone
Dream lover, where are you
With a love, oh, so true
And the hand that I can hold
To feel you near as I grow old
'Cause I want
A girl
To call
My own
I want a dream lover
So I don't have to dream alone
Someday, I don't know how
I hope she'll hear my plea
Some way, I don't know how
She'll bring her love to me
Dream lover, until then
I'll go to sleep and dream again
That's the only thing to do
Till all my lover's dreams come true
'Cause I want
A girl
To call
My own
I want a dream lover
So I don't have to dream alone
Dream lover, until then
I'll go to sleep and dream again
That's the only thing to do
Till all my lover's dreams come true
'Cause I want
A girl
To call
My own
I want a dream lover
So I don't have to dream alone
Please don't make me dream alone
I beg you don't make me dream alone
Darling, there's something I've got to say
[Instrumental (Electric Slide Guitar)]
Drop down mama let your daddy see
You got something down there that keeps on worryin' me
But my mama don't allow me to fool around
"Son you're too young now some woman might put you down"
Go away from my window stop scratchin' 'round my screen
So evil woman and I know what you mean
And my mama don't allow me to fool around
She's sayin' "Son you're too young now some woman might
put you down" Oh ...
[Instrumental (Organ + Electric Slide Guitar)]
I got three women livin' on the same damn road
One does my, my cookin' my washin' one pays my room and
my board
And my mama don't allow me to fool around
"Son you're too young now some woman might put you down"
I say drop down mama let your daddy see
You got something down there that keeps worryin' me
And my mama don't allow me, me to fool, me to fool around
She's sayin' "Son you're too young now some woman "
"Oh, son you're too young some woman"

Bye, bye love, bye, bye happiness, hello loneliness
I think I'm a gonna cry
Bye, bye love, bye, bye sweet caress, hello emptiness
I feel like I could die, bye, bye my love, goodbye
There goes my baby with someone new
She sure looks happy, I sure am blue
She was my baby till he stepped in
Goodbye to romance that might have been
Bye, bye love, bye, bye happiness, hello loneliness
I think I'm a gonna cry
Bye, bye love, bye, bye sweet caress, hello emptiness
I feel like I could die, bye, bye my love, goodbye
I'm a through with romance, I'm through with love
I'm through with countin' the stars above
And here's the reason that I'm so free
My lovin' baby is through with me
Bye, bye love, bye, bye happiness, hello loneliness

I feel like I could die, bye, bye my love, goodbye
I was born in the Bronx on a strong day
I guess you can say
The beat in the street, the streetcar sound
The singin' in the moonlight, the pure light
The harmony's tight
Informed we can fight
We got heart
And for [unintelligible]
Yo, when I'm inside a song
I'm strong, I can't go wrong, It's where I belong
Come along, it's good, it's bad
Who said it was perfect
Only God is perfect
Only God is good
Man He blessed me beyond my wildest dreams
I can sing from the highest mountain
I can sing from the highest rooftop
I'm talkin' life, I'm talkin' beauty
Truth, love, hate, scammin', lyin', dyin'
Yo, life is hard
But life is the art
It's better to be clean than to be cluttered
Clean of soul, that is
My God is the Creator, not a dictator,
He's the life-giving lover,
My Father, no other, my brother, my best friend
Never lied to me, even died for me
Life is good
We're talkin' you
We're talkin' sweet Sue
We're talkin' virtue
We're talkin' faith, hope, love, wisdom,
Courage, honesty, patience
Then there's blue skies,
There's miracles
There's families and babies and crazies
Changes you won't believe
I got aces up my sleeve
And God keeps blessin' me
In spite of me
He's the best
If I didn't know me I'd be impressed.
I don't wanna underestimate what He can do in my life
He brought me you in my life
He brought me through all this strife
Everybody here, we've been through it all
Real joy, closeness, distance, journey, the ups, the downs
The issues, the tissues, the drugs, the thugs, the drinkin', the stinkin' thinkin',
Throw up, grow up
Tears, fears, torn, mourn, reborn
Yo! Hallelujah!
I've never been the same, took away my shame
I used to play the blame game
How lame
Man I got a wife who drives me sane
Here I am authentic, genuine, a truth-teller, no bullshit
Don't have a fit,
God's on His throne
He's in control
Heroes, villains, king, queens, saints, sinners,
James Dean, Norma Jean, mmm vanilla ice cream
Elvis, Buddy, Hank
Honky-tonk blues guitars, cars, bars
Yo! Stand proud, rock around
Do-wop, be-bop, rock-and-roll, good for the soul
The Yankees, JFK,
I did it my way, rock and roll is here to stay
Ain't that the truth
Martin Luther King
Say what you mean, mean what you say, but don't be mean
I have a dream, he paid his dues, king of the delta blues
Elvis Aaron Presley played that thing,
Rock and roll king,
I ride with the King of kings
He brought me through, thanks to you, and you and you.
Man I'm glad we've got each other,
No doubt about that, that's where it's at
With great love and affection
The kid from the Bronx
I went down to the crossroads, fell down on my knees.
I went down to the crossroads, fell down on my knees.
Asked the lord above for mercy, save me if you please.
I went down to the crossroads, tried to flag a ride.
I went down to the crossroads, tried to flag a ride.
Nobody seemed to know me, everybody passed me by.
I'm going down to rosedale, take my rider by my side.
I'm going down to rosedale, take my rider by my side.
You can still barrelhouse, baby, on the riverside.
You can run, you can run, tell my friend-boy willie
brown.
You can run, you can run, tell my friend-boy willie
brown.
And I'm standing at the crossroads, believe I'm sinking
Blue Monday, how I hate blue Monday
Have to work like a slave all day
Here comes Tuesday, oh, hard Tuesday
I'm so tired I've got no time to play
Here comes Wednesday, I'm beat to my socks
My gal calls, got to tell her that I'm out
'Cause Thursday is a hard working day
And Friday I get my pay
Saturday morning, oh Saturday morning
All my tiredness has gone away
Got my money and my honey
And I'm out on the stem to play
Sunday morning my head is bad
While the traffic light blinks
I'm inside and I'm gettin' a drink
Not knowing what awaits me
When I walk outside
I'm tryin' to score, I got my eye
On some shapely baby by the door
Before I get outside
She's already got my money
Chorus::
Try not to take It so hard dude
She a pretty and quick
But she sure wasn't rude
Go back where you came from boys
What you tryin' to do?
ALL OUIET On 34th STREET
You didn't score but you sure got beat
ALL OUIET On 34th STREET
Losin' ain't fun specially when you cheat
Meanwhile back In my room
I'm Gettin' caught up in my own gloom
Sleepin' In a chair
Wonderin' where the hell you are
I'm goin' back down to the bar
Gonna ask the man for some liquor in the jar
I ain't foolin' nobody but myself
Each time we have a quarrel
It almost breaks my heart
'Cause I'm so afraid
That we will have to part
Each night I ask
The stars up above
Why must I be
A teenager in love?
One day I feel so happy
Next day I feel so sad
I guess, I'll learn to take
The good with the bad
'Cause each night I ask
The stars up above
Why must I be
A teenager in love?
I cried a tear
For nobody but you
I'll be a lonely one, if you
Should say we're through
Well, if you want to make me cry
That won't be so hard to do
And if you should say goodbye
I'll still go on loving you
Each night I ask
The stars up above
Why must I be
A teenager in love?
I cried a tear
For nobody but you
I'll be a lonely one, if you
Should say we're through
Well, if you want to make me cry
That won't be so hard to do
And if you should say goodbye
I'll still go on loving you
Each night I ask
The stars up above
Why must I be
A teenager in love?
Why must I be
A teenager in love?
(In love)
Why must I be
A teenager in love?
(In love)
Why must I be

Oh baby what you want me to do
You got me peepin' you got me hidin'
You got me peep hide hide peep
Any way you wanna let it roll
Yeah yeah yeah
You got me doin what you want me
Yesterday somehow slipped by me
It died like an old forgotten friend
Didn't I just turn sixteen In May
Now thirty-five's just around the bend
I throw the dice in all of the alleys
C'mon baby, let 'em roll
And boys, If you weren't from Flatbush
Jack, you didn't have any soul
I used to be a Brooklyn Dodger
But I ain't a hitter anymore
You know I had a reputation
I loved to hear the home crowd roar
You know I never had a nickel
Just my freedom, girl, and the time
And now all I have Is a memory
Of a street dodger in in hid prime
Now Haley's comets are remembered
as flash across the sky
And if I had my leather jacket
I swear I'd give it all another try
I used to be a Brooklyn Dodger
But I ain't a hitter anymore
You know I had a reputation
I loved to hear the home crowd roar
I used to be a Brooklyn Dodger
I'm walking down this track,
I've got tears in my eyes,
Trying to read a letter from my home.
If this train runs me right
I'll be home tomorrow night.
I'm nine hundred miles from my home.
And I hate to hear that lonesome whistle blow.
I'll pawn you my watch
And I'll pawn you my chain;
Pawn you my gold diamond ring.
If this train runs me right
I'll be home tomorrow night.
I'm nine hundred miles from my home.
She's a guitar queen she blows the blues everywhere she
goes
She's a guitar queen she blows the blues everywhere she
goes
And she can break In on a dollar and boys heaven only

Robert Johnson left her records and Johnny taught her
slide guitar
And Bobby left her records, Johnny Hammond taught her
slide guitar
She's a kind-hearted lady sinnin' bright like a sinnin'
star
Chorus:
Her motors really buzzin'
Generator's got Its sock
It's all under good condition
You make me want to rock
You get deep down In tins connection
Tangle with them wires
You kick down on that starter
Your motion gives me fire
Slide Bonnie ride slide Bonnie
Ride Bonnie ride slide Bonnie
Ride Bonnie ride slide Bonnie
Ride Bonnie ride slide Bonnie etc
She's a guitar queen she's got a movement like a power
drill
She's a guitar queen she's got a movement like a power

She's the only baby I know that can strut while she's
standing still
I've been away now
I just can't wait now
I got your letters -
and I read between each line
I've been praying
that you'll be waiting
So just remember -
I'm gonna make you mine
Refrain:
I'm gonna drive all night
till the morning light
I'm gonna roll till dawn
with the windows down
and the radio on
You know I'd drive all night
just to hold you tight
We're gonna be so free
just me for you and you for me
I've been dreamin'
and I've been seamin'
just to see you -
'cause you're my one desire
You're the reason
my arms are open
Your sweet emotion
sets my heart on fire
Refrain:
I'm gonna drive all night...
Bridge:
Girl I should have known better - I nearly let you go
if I'd had my way
Woulda make you mine a long time ago
A little understanding - just a little bit of love
would go a long long way
let me show you what I'm thinking of
Solo
Oh well I'm the type of guy who will never settle down
Where pretty girls are well, you know that I'm around
I kiss 'em and I love'em 'cause to me they're all the
same
I hug 'em and I squeeze 'em they don't even know my
name
They call me the wanderer yeah the wanderer
I roam around around around...
Oh well there's Flo on my left and there's Mary on my
right
And Janie is the girl with that I'll be with tonight
And when she asks me which one I love the best
I tear open my shirt I got Rosie on my chest
'Cause I'm the wanderer yeah the wanderer
I roam around around around...
Oh well I roam from town to town
I go through life without a care
'Til I'm as happy as a clown
With my two fists of iron and I'm going nowhere
I'm the type of guy that likes to roam around
I'm never in one place I roam from town to town
And when I find myself a-fallin' for some girl
I hop right into that car of mine and ride around the
world
Yeah I'm the wanderer yeah the wanderer
I roam around around around...
Oh yeah I'm the type of guy that likes to roam around
I'm never in one place I roam from town to town
And when I find myself a-fallin' for some girl
I hop right into that car of mine and ride around the
world
Yeah 'cause I'm a wanderer yeah a wanderer
I roam around around around...
'Cause I'm a wanderer yeah a wanderer
You've awakened something in me
I never knew existed
I'd like to crawl inside you
To feel all that you believe
You found the music in me
The melody will play on
And I can hear your heart beat
A thousand miles away
Chorus:
You know I bet like I've been lifted high
Through the wind and clouds to touch the sky
I feel like I can fly
You're a child, yet you're a woman, babe
'Tween innocence and passion
Come here and lay beside me I cant leave your love
alone
Lisa, you've captured me
Made my dream realty
Repeat Chorus
The years that lie between us
They're like corridors unlighted
The torch that I am holding
I walked forty-seven miles of barbed wire, I got a
cobra snake for a necktie
A brand new house on the road side, and it's a-made out
of rattlesnake hide
Got a band new chimney put on top, and it's a-made out
of human skull
Come on take a little walk with me baby, and tell me
who do you love?
Who do you love?
Who do you love?
Around the town I use a rattlesnake whip, take it easy
baby don't you give me no lip
Who do you love?
Who do you love?
I've got a tombstone hand and a graveyard mind, I'm
just twenty-two and I don't mind dying
Who do you love?
Who do you love?
Who do you love?
Now Arlene took a-me by my hand, she said "Lonesome
George you don't understand,
who do you love?"
The night were dark and the sky were blue, down the
alleyway a house wagon flew
Hit a bump and somebody screamed, you should've heard
what I'd seen
Who do you love?
Who do you love?
Who do you love?
Who do you love?
Yeah, I've got a tombstone hand in a graveyard mine,
just twenty-two baby I don't mind dying
Snake skin shoes baby put them on your feet, got the
goodtime music and the Bo Diddley beat
Who do you love?
Who do you love?
I walked forty-seven miles of barbed wire, I got a
cobra snake for a necktie
A brand new house on the road side, and it's made out
of rattlesnake hide
Got a band new chimney put on top, and it's made out of
human skull
Come on take a little walk with me child, tell me who
do you love?
Who do you love?
Turn me loose, turn me loose I say
This is the first time I have felt this way
Gonna get a thousand kicks or kiss a thousand chicks
So turn me loose
Turn me loose, turn me loose I say
Gonna rock'n'roll long as the band's gonna play
Gonna holler, gonna shout, gonna knock myself right out
So turn me loose (turn me loose, ooh-ahh)
I've got some change in my pocket and I'm rarin' to go
Takin' some chick-a to the picture show
And when I see her home and we kiss goodnight
Well, turn me loose, turn me loose, turn me loose, turn
me loose
Turn me loose, turn me loose I say
Yes, today is gonna, is gonna be the day
I want you all to understand, now I am a man
So turn me loose (turn me loose, ooh-ahh)
I've got some change in my pocket and I'm rarin' to go
Takin' some chick-a to the picture show
And when I see her home and we kiss goodnight
Well, turn me loose, turn me loose, turn me loose, turn
me loose
Turn me loose, turn me loose I say
Yes, today is gonna, is gonna be the day
I want you all to understand, now I am a man
Lord, I've been so unhappy everywhere I go
There's nowhere, no place that I know I can find
Peace for my troubled mind
I took a boat to China, drifted, drifted to Mexico
But nowhere, no place can I ever ever ever find
Peace for my troubled mind
But I had, I had me a girl, she didn't stay long
She left me walkin' in the rain
Oh, how I loved my girl, ah but she did me so wrong
She left me with troubles and pain
Oh Lord, I'm so tired, tired of travelin'
Wherever four winds blow
There's just nowhere
No place that I could find
Peace for my, my troubled mind
Oh, peace for my troubled mind
Oh, little girl of mine, gee, you sure look fine
Yes, you appeal to me, woah yeah, I'll never set you free
'Cause you're my lovin' baby till the end of time
I can't seem to get you off my mind, woah yeah, my baby
The boys will roll their eyes as we go strollin' by
It's not so hard to see, woah yeah, that they all envy me
'Cause you're my lovin' baby, you belong to me
That's the way it was meant to be, woah yeah, my baby
Oh well, now I know, I love you so
And I'll never, I'll never let you go
Only I need your love, oh so much
That I thrill to your touch
Oh baby, now I know, I love you so
And I'll never, I'll never let you go
I need your love but it's so much
That I thrill to your touch
So little girl, stay true, that's all I ask of you
Be mine and mine alone, woah yeah, don't leave your happy home
'Cause I love you, baby, and I always will
You're my one and only thrill, woah yeah, my baby
People, don't you worry, I know what I'm doin'
I know what love's all about
Oh this little girl won't make a fool out of me
Because I'm gonna straighten her out
Oh yeah
Oh this little girl is just about as mean as they come, she is now
She don't even act nice, once in a while like some, oh yeah
Oh, oh, oh, 'Trouble' is her middle name
But I'm glad that's the way she came
I could be the one to tame this little girl, oh yeah
Oh this little girl won't like me much at first, she won't now
And after a while she's gonna think that I'm the worst, oh yeah
Well I won't treat her with kid gloves and I won't shower her with lots of love
But I'll make an angel of this little girl
Oh this little girl tries to make every guy her slave, oh yeah
But this little man is gonna take her by the hand
And I'm gonna show her the way to behave
Oh this little girl is kinda used to gettin' her way, but no more now
There'll gonna be some changes made startin' today
Oh, oh I said now everyone will be surprised when I cut her down to size
And no one's gonna recognize my little girl
I tell you again now
This little girl, I'm a man now
This little girl, I'll tell you again now
My tears are fallin' cause you've taken her away
And through it really hurts me so
There's something that I gotta say
Take good care of my baby
Please don't ever make her blue
Just tell her that you love her
Make sure you're thinking of her
In everything you say and do
Take good care of my baby
Now don't you ever make her cry
Just let your love surround her
Don't let her see a cloudy sky
Once upon a time that little girl was mine
If I'd been true I know she'd never be with you, so
Take good care of my baby
Be just as kind as you can be
And if you should discover
That you don't really love her
Just send my baby back home to me
Take good care of my baby
Please don't ever make her blue
Just tell her that you love her
Make sure you're thinking of her
In everything you say and do
Take good care of my baby
Now don't you ever make her cry
Just let your love surround her
Don't let her see a cloudy sky
Once upon a time that little girl was mine
If I'd been true I know she'd never be with you, so
Take good care of my baby
Be just as kind as you can be
And if you should discover
That you don't really love her
Just send my baby back home to me
Oh take good care of my baby, take good care of my baby
I'ma gonna raise a fuss, I'ma gonna raise a holler
About workin' all summer just to tryna make a dollar
Every time I call my baby tryna 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 mom and pop told me, "Son you gotta make some money
If you want to use the car to go ridin' next Sunday"
Well, I didn't go to work, I told the boss that I was sick
"No, you can't use the car 'cause you didn't work a lick"
Sometimes I wonder what I'm a gonna do
But there ain't no cure for the summertime blues
I'ma gonna take a week, I'ma gonna have me a vacation
I'ma take my problem to the United Nations
Well, I told my congressman 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
I'ma gonna raise a fuss, I'ma gonna raise a holler
About workin' all summer just to tryna make a dollar
Every time I call my baby tryna 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, no, no
I'm just a somebody nobody wants
(Nobody wants me) nobody wants me
Everybody that I see
Seems to have someone but me
Arm in arm they walk along
Why does life treat me so wrong?
Wish somebody wanted me
Because I just don't wanna be
Another somebody nobody wants
(Nobody wants)
Saturday's another night
Just like any other night
Everybody's feelin' great
Everybody's got a date
All of them have fun but me
Why why why must I be
Just another somebody nobody wants
(Nobody wants)
Feel like my heart's about to breakI'm so sad
I want a girl to love meI want her bad
I sit up in my lonely room
Somethin's gotta happen soon
Wond'rin' why I'm all alone
Want somebody of my own
Someone who will care a lot
Someone who will prove I'm not
Another somebody nobody wants
(Nobody wants)
Feel like my heart's about to breakI'm so sad
I want a girl to love meI want her bad
I sit up in my lonely room
Somethin's gotta happen soon
Wond'rin' why I'm all alone
Want somebody of my own
Someone who will care a lot
Someone who will prove I'm not
Another somebody nobody wants

As I walk along I wonder what went wrong
With our love, a love that was so strong
And as I still walk on I think of the things
We've done together while our hearts were young
I'm a walking in the rain, tears are fallin' and I feel the pain
Wishing you were here with me to end this misery
And I wonder, wa-wa-wa-wa-wonder why
Why, why, why, why, why she went away
And I wonder if she will stay, my little runaway
My run, run, run, run, runaway

O Holy Night! The stars are brightly shining,
It is the night of the dear Saviour's birth.
Long lay the world in sin and error pining.
Till He appeared and the Spirit felt its worth.
A thrill of hope the weary world rejoices,
For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn.
Fall on your knees! Oh, hear the angel voices!
O night divine, the night when Christ was born;
O night, O Holy Night , O night divine!
O night, O Holy Night , O night divine!
Led by the light of faith serenely beaming,
With glowing hearts by His cradle we stand.
O'er the world a star is sweetly gleaming,
Now come the wisemen from out of the Orient land.
The King of kings lay thus lowly manger;
In all our trials born to be our friends.
He knows our need, our weakness is no stranger,
Behold your King! Before him lowly bend!
Behold your King! Before him lowly bend!
Truly He taught us to love one another,
His law is love and His gospel is peace.
Chains he shall break, for the slave is our brother.
And in his name all oppression shall cease.
Sweet hymns of joy in grateful chorus raise we,
With all our hearts we praise His holy name.

Maybe baby I love you,
Maybe baby I don't,
Maybe baby someday I'll leave you,
Then again maybe I won't
Maybe baby I love you,
Maybe baby I dont,
Maybe baby someday I'll leave you,
Then again maybe I wont,
Oh-whoa-oh, it's hard to know what the future holds,
My mind is so unclear,
Oh-whoa-oh, its hard to see if we would be together
through the years
Oh, maybe... you'll be my baby... whoa-oh-oh... forever
Who's to say I'll do it my way
Maybe baby I need you,
Maybe baby it's right (maybe baby it's right),
Maybe baby tomorrow I need you,
Then again maybe tonight (maybe baby tonight),
Oh-whoa-oh, it's hard to know what the future holds,
My mind is so unclear,
Oh-whoa-oh, its hard to see if we would be together
through the years
Oh, maybe... you'll be my baby... whoa-oh-oh... forever
Who's to say I'll do it my way
Oh, maybe... you'll be my baby... whoa-oh-oh... forever
Who's to say I'll do it my way
[solo]
Oh, maybe... you'll be my baby... whoa-oh-oh... forever
Who's to say I'll do it my way
And when the night has fallen,
I'll always here you calling,
And maybe I'll be afraid,
And baby just remember,
The time we spent together,
And maybe I'll do the same
Oh, maybe... you'll be my baby... whoa-oh-oh... forever
Who's to say I'll do it my way
Oh, maybe... you'll be my baby... whoa-oh-oh... forever

Come on, the warden threw a party in the county jail
The prison band was there and they began to wail
The band was jumpin' and the joint began to swing
You should've heard those knocked out jailbirds sing
Let's rock, everybody let's rock
Everybody in the whole cell block
They were dancin' to the jailhouse rock
Spider Murphy played the tenor saxophone
And Little Joe was blowin' on the slide trombone
The drummer boy from Illinois went crash, boom, bang
The whole rhythm section was the Purple Gang
Let's rock, everybody let's rock
Everybody in the whole cell block
They were dancin' to the jailhouse rock
Number forty seven said to number three
"You're the cutest jailbird I ever did see
I sure would be delighted with your company
Come on and do the jailhouse rock with me"
Let's rock, everybody let's rock
Everybody in the whole cell block
They were dancin' to the jailhouse rock
The sad sack was a sittin' on a block of stone
Way over in the corner weepin' all alone
The warden said, "Hey, buddy don't you be no square
If you can't find a partner use a wooden chair"
Let's rock, everybody let's rock
Everybody in the whole cell block
They were dancin' to the jailhouse rock
Shifty Henry said to Bugs, "For Heaven's sake
No one's lookin' now's our chance to make a break"
Bugsy turned to Shifty and he said, "Nix, nix
I wanna stick around a while and get my kicks"
Let's rock, everybody let's rock
Everybody in the whole cell block
They were dancin' to the jailhouse rock
Dancin' to the jailhouse rock, dancin' to the jailhouse rock
Rock, everybody, rock
Everybody in the whole cell block
They were dancin' to the jailhouse rock
Everybody now rock, rock, everybody now rock
Dancin' to the jailhouse rock, everybody rock 'n' roll
Gypsy woman told my momma, before I was born
You got a boy-child comin', gonna be a son-of-a-gun
Gonna make these pretty women, jump and shout
And the world will only know, a-what it's all about
Y'know I'm here
Everybody knows I'm here
And I'm the hoochie-coochie man
Everybody knows I'm here
Igot a black cat bone, I got a mojo too
I got John the Conqueror, I'm gonna mess with you
I'm gonna make you, pretty girl, lead me by the hand
Then the world will know, the Hoochie-Coochie Man
Y'know I'm here
Everybody knows I'm here
And I'm the hoochie-coochie man
Everybody knows I'm here

Gypsy woman told my momma, before I was born
You got a boy-child comin', gonna be a son-of-a-gun
Gonna make these pretty women, jump and shout
And the world will only know, a-what it's all about
Y'know I'm here
Everybody knows I'm here
And I'm the hoochie-coochie man
Everybody knows I'm here
On the seventh hour, of the seventh day,
on the seventh month, the seventh doctor said:
"He's born for good luck, and I know you see;
Got seven hundred dollars, and don't you mess with me
Y'know I'm here
Everybody knows I'm here
And I'm the hoochie-coochie man
Never know how much I love you
Never know how much I care
When you put your arms around me
I get a fever that's so hard to bear
You give me fever when you kiss me
Fever when you hold me tight
Fever in the morning
Fever all through the night.
Ev'rybody's got the fever
That is something you all know
Fever isn't such a new thing
Fever started long ago
Sun lights up the daytime
Moon lights up the night
I light up when you call my name
And you know I'm gonna treat you right
You give me fever when you kiss me
Fever when you hold me tight
Fever in the morning
Fever all through the night
Romeo loved Juliet
Juliet she felt the same
When he put his arms around her
He said 'Julie, baby, you're my flame
Thou giv-est fever when we kisseth
Fever with the flaming youth
Fever I'm afire
Fever ye I burn for sooth'
Captain Smith and Pocahantas
Had a very mad affair
When her daddy tried to kill him
She said 'Daddy, o, don't you dare
He gives me fever with his kisses
Fever when he holds me tight
Fever, I'm his misses,
Oh daddy, won't you treat him right'
Now you've listened to my story
Here's the point that I have made
Cats were born to give chicks fever
Be it Fahrenheit or centigrade
They give you fever when you kiss them
Fever if you live and learn
Fever 'til you sizzle
What a lovely way to burn
What a lovely way to burn
Hey, the roof is leakin' and the rain's fallin' on my head

The roof is leakin' and the rain's fallin' on my head

I cried so hard, teardrops on my bed
Drippity drop, yeah
She packed up her bags and she moved out on the midnight train

She packed up her bag and she moved out on the midnight train

She took my heart, tears rollin' down my drain

On the rug, and on the wall

Donna, Donna the Prima Donna
Broke my heart.
We're apart.
Thinks she's smart.
I met a girl a month ago
I thought that she would love me so.
But in time I realized.
She had a pair of roving eyes.
I remember the nights we dated,
Always acting sophisticated,
Talking about high society,
Then she tried to make a fool out of me.
They call her Donna, Donna the Prima Donna
Broke my heart now.
Thinks she's smart now.
We're apart now.
Pretty little girl you're just having fun
You're running all around and breaking lover's hearts.
Pretty little girl, I don't stand a chance,
Without any money there goes our romance.
She always wears charms, diamonds, pearls galore,
She buys them at the 5 & 10 cents store.
She wants to be just like Zsa Zsa Gabor,
Even though she's the girl next door.
They call her Donna, Donna the Prima Donna.
Broke my heart.
Thinks she's smart.
We're apart.
Pretty little girl you're just having fun,
You're running all around, you're breaking lover's
hearts.
Pretty little girl, I don't stand a chance,
Without any money there goes our romance.
She always wears charms, diamonds, pearls galore,
She buys them at the 5 & 10 cents store.
She wants to be just like Zsa Zsa Gabor,
Even though she's Donna next door.
You know, I'd rather be the ol' devil
Well, I'd rather be the devil
Then to be that woman' man
You know, rather be the devil
Than to be that woman' man
You know, I'm so sorry
You know, so sorry
That I ever fell in love wit' you-ooo-hoo-oo
Because you know you don't treat me
Baby, like you used ta do-hoo
You know, I laid down last night
You know, I laid down last night
And I thought to take me some rest
But my mind got to rambling
Like a wild geese from the west
You know the woman that I love
The woman that I love
I stol't her from my best friend
But you know he done got lucky
An he done got her back, again
You know, I used to cut your kindleing
You know, I used to cut your kindleing
Baby, then I made you some fire
Then I would tote all your water
Way, way, way, from the bogy brier
You know, my baby she don't drink whiskey
My baby, she don't drink no whiskey
An I know she ain't crazy about wine
Now, it was nothin' but the ol' devil
He done changed my baby's mind
You know, I could be right
You know, I could be right
Then again, I could be wrong
But it was nothin' but the ol' devil
He done got my baby
Yeah, yeah, yeah
I'd like to tell you something
All about the good and the bad
I wish today the world, my friends
Would stop being sad
There's so much evil round us
I feel that I could die
And I know, yeah
That I was born to cry
Well, if I ever told you
All about the things I have done
I can't remember having
Even one day of fun
I don't know what I'm doing
If I do, it's a lie
But I know that I
Was born to cry
Yeah, cry
I said cry, oh, yeah, cry
Oh, yeah, oh
Well, every girl I ever loved
Always stepped right on my feet
I thought I had a friend once
But he kicked out my teeth
The things I like and wanna have

But I know, yeah
That I was born to cry
Well, I know someday
And maybe soon
That master will call
And when he does

Well it's one for the money, well it's two for the show
Well it's three to get ready, now go, cat go
