Richard Starkey, MBE (born 7 July 1940), better known by his stage name Ringo Starr, is an English musician and actor who gained worldwide fame as the drummer for the Beatles. When the band formed in 1960, Starr was a member of another Liverpool band, Rory Storm and the Hurricanes. He joined the Beatles in August 1962, taking the place of Pete Best. In addition to his drumming, Starr is featured on lead vocals on a number of successful Beatles songs (in particular, "With a Little Help from My Friends", "Yellow Submarine", and the Beatles version of "Act Naturally"). He is credited as a co-writer of the songs "What Goes On" and "Flying", and as the writer of "Don't Pass Me By" and "Octopus's Garden".
As drummer for the Beatles, Starr was musically creative, and his contribution to the band's music has received high praise from notable drummers in more recent times. Starr described himself as "your basic offbeat drummer with funny fills". Drummer Steve Smith said that Starr's popularity "brought forth a new paradigm" where "we started to see the drummer as an equal participant in the compositional aspect" and that Starr "composed unique, stylistic drum parts for The Beatles songs". In 2011, Starr was picked as the fifth-best drummer of all-time by Rolling Stone readers.
We were young
It was fun
And we couldn't lose
Times were right
Over night
We were headline news
Crazy days and reckless nights
Limousines and bright spotlights
We were brothers through it all
And your song
Will play on
Without you
And this world
Won't forget
About you
Every part of you was in your song
Now we will carry on
Never without you (Without you without you)
Within you without you (Within you without you)
'Here Comes the Sun' is about you
Here today
Not alone
With my memories
Life is strange
How things change
It's reality
You played a beautiful melody
That keeps on haunting me
I can always feel you
By my side
And your song (Your song)
Will play on (Play on)
Without you (Without you)
And this world (This world)
Won't forget (Forget)
About you (About you)
Every part of you was in your song
Now we will carry on
Never without you (Without you without you)
Within you without you (Within you without you)
'Here Comes the Sun' is about you
I know all things must pass
And only love will last
I'll always love the memories
Of you and me…
(Take it away Eric...)
**Guitar Playing**
And your song (Your song)
Will play on (Play on)
Without you (Without you)
And this world (This world)
Won't forget (Forget)
About you (About you)
Every part of you was in your song (Your song)
Now we will carry on
Never without you (Never without you)
Within you without you (Within you without you)
We're never without you (We're never without you)
Within you without you (Within you without you)
We're never without you (We're never without you)
We're never without you (We're never without you)
Within you without you (Within you without you)
I think love is about you...

WASN'T TOO LONG AGO I WAS DYING OF AN EMPTY HEART,
WHEN YOU GET LONELY, GETS SO EASY TO FALL APART.
STAYING UP ALL NIGHT,
LOOKING FOR TROUBLE SOON AS IT WOULD START,
THEN THERE WAS YOU THERE, LOVIN' ME,

YOU GOT A NICE WAY OF BELIEVIN' IN ME,
YOU GOT A NICE WAY OF TELLIN' ME SO, SO I KNOW.
YOU GOT A NICE WAY OF BELIEVIN' IN ME,
YOU GOT A NICE WAY, LET ME KNOW, SO I KNOW.
BEING' IN LOVE WITH YOU

NOTHIN' I CAN DO BUT SMILE.

WILL YOU STAY FOR A WHILE?
YOU GOT A NICE WAY OF BELIEVIN' IN ME,
YOU GOT A NICE WAY OF TELLIN' ME SO, SO I KNOW.

I remember it all
That magical moment I'll never forget
We started to fall
Higher and higher in love than I thought I could get
It was so hard to find someone
And then I found you
(Chorus)
What in the world would I do
Living in a world without you
Me and the sky would be blue
Bluer than I ever knew
The sun will shine but there'll be no light
And nothing to look forward to
In a world without you
Just you and I
Passionate lovers forever this time
Our hearts couldn't lie
Never say never whenever you don't want to try
Sometimes it's hard but we'll get through
We always have we always do
(to Chorus)
Being in love letting our feelings show
Let me tell you again what you already know

HAVE YOU EVER WATCHED A MOONBEAM
AS IT SLITHER CROSS YOUR WINDOW-PANE?
OR STRUGGLE WITH A BIT OF RAIN?
OR DANCE ABOUT THE WEATHERVANE?
OR SETTLE ON A MOVING TRAIN AND WONDER WHERE THE TRAIN'S BEEN?
OR ON A FENCE WITH BITS OF CRAP AROUND IT'S BOTTOM,
BLOWN THERE BY WINDBEAM?
WHO SEARCHES FOR THE MOONBEAM
WHO WAS LAST SEEN LOOKING AFTER TRACKS OF THE CARELESS WINDBEAM?
MOVIN' TO THE TRACKS OF THE TIRELESS FREIGHT TRAIN,
THEN LIGHTING UP THE SITE OF THE WEATHERVANE
AND THE BITS OF RAIN, AND THE WINDOW-PANE,
AND THE EYES OF THOSE WHO THINK THEY SAW IT HAPPEN.
HAVE YOU EVER WATCHED A MOONBEAM
AS IT SLITHER CROSS YOUR WINDOW-PANE?

AH -

WE WERE PLAYING AT A CLUB IN COSTA RICA,
WHERE THE LATIN LOVERS COME TO FIND ROMANCE,
WHEN THE LADY WHO WAS DANCIN' ON THE TABLES LOOKED OUR WAY.
I WANNA TANGO ALL NIGHT, MAMBO TILL DAYLIGHT,
THAT WAS ALL SHE SAID.
BUT WHEN SHE SHOWED US HOW, I ALMOST LOST MY HEAD.
THEN SHE TOOK US TO A LITTLE HACIENDA,
WE WERE HOPIN' THAT HER MAMA WAS AWAY.
THEN THE LADY WHO WAS DANCIN' THROUGH HER GARDEN TURNED TO SAY:
I WANNA TANGO ALL NIGHT, MAMBO TILL DAYLIGHT,
THAT WAS ALL SHE SAID.
BUT WHEN SHE SHOWED US HOW, I ALMOST LOST MY HEAD.
I WANNA TANGO ALL NIGHT, RUMBA BY MOONLIGHT,
THAT WAS WHAT SHE SAID.
AND WHEN SHE TOLD US WHY, OUR FACES ALL TURNED RED.
WE'LL DO THE SAMBA TOO,
AND CHA CHA THROUGH THE ROOM.
BUT WHEN HER MAMA, SISTERS AND BROTHERS DANCED THEY,
THEY BEGAN TO SING:
WE WANNA TANGO ALL NIGHT, THAT WAS WHAT THEY SAID.
AND WHEN THEY ALL SHOWED UP, I KNEW WE'VE BEEN MISLED.
WE WANNA TANGO ALL NIGHT, AY AY AY AY AY,
WE'RE GONNA MAMBO ALL NIGHT, AY AY AY AY AY,
WE'RE GONNA RUMBA ALL NIGHT, AY AY AY AY AY.
I SAID, TANGO ALL NIGHT,
RUMBA IN THE MOONLIGHT, (ay ay ay ay ay)
WE'RE GONNA TANGO ALL NIGHT, (ay ay ay ay ay)
WE'RE GONNA TANGO ALL NIGHT, (ay ay ay ay ay)
OH, RUMBA ALL NIGHT LONG. (ay ay ay ay ay)

I don't wanna wait in no line
All I wanna do is go home
Something's goin' on inside me
I won't let it tear me apart
(Chorus)
You got to breakdown to breakthrough
Growing up took someone like you
Forget about the things in your head
It's time you put the puppet to bed
Don't tell me Rome was built in a day
You've got to leave before you arrive
If you're willing to give it away
It's the only way to survive
Never up is never in
You got to lose before you can win
(to Chorus)
Do yourself a favour
You've got to love your neighbour
Even when the chips are down
Cut the strings and let me go,
Now this is a one man show
By Michael Franks
LOVE HAS LOCKED US UP, PEACHES,
LOCKED INSIDE THIS ZOO,
YOUR BANANAS GET THROWN AT ME
AND MINE GET THROWN AT YOU.
EV'RY NIGHT WE FUSS AND FIGHT
LIKE ME AND YOU KNOW WHO,
I GUESS LOVE IS ALWAYS JUST:
LOVE IS MONKEY SEE AND MONKEY DO, (that's all it is, Peaches)
LOVE IS MONKEY SEE AND MONKEY DO, (would I lie to you?)
LOVE IS MONKEY SEE AND MONKEY DO, (that's all it is, Peaches)
LOVE IS MONKEY SEE AND MONKEY DO.
DO YOU WANT MY LOVE, PEACHES?
DO YOU WANT MY RAGE?
OR DO YOU MERELY LIKE TO SEE ME SHAKE MY CAGE?
YOUR PAPAYAS GET THROWN AT ME
AND MINE GET THROWN AT YOU,
I GUESS LOVE IS ALWAYS JUST:
LOVE IS MONKEY SEE AND MONKEY DO, (that's all it is, Peaches)
LOVE IS MONKEY SEE AND MONKEY DO, (would I lie to you?)
LOVE IS MONKEY SEE AND MONKEY DO, (that's all it is, Peaches)
LOVE IS MONKEY SEE AND MONKEY DO.
YOU WON'T LET ME NEAR YOU, PEACHES,
BUT ONE DAY YOU WILL.
GONNA JUMP UP AND STUMBLE AND EAT ALL THE JUNGLE
UNTIL I'VE HAD MY FILL.
THEN YOU'LL KNOW THE TRUTH, PEACHES,
ONE AND ONE AIN'T TWO,
ONE AND ONE IS ONE AND LOVE IS:
LOVE IS MONKEY SEE AND MONKEY DO, (that's all it is, Peaches)
LOVE IS MONKEY SEE AND MONKEY DO,
WOULD I LIE TO YOU? (would I lie to you, baby?)
LOVE IS MONKEY SEE AND MONKEY DO, (that's all it is, Peaches)
LOVE IS MONKEY SEE AND MONKEY DO. (love is, love is)

LOVE IS MONKEY SEE AND MONKEY DO, (that's all it is, Peaches)
LOVE IS MONKEY SEE AND MONKEY DO.

HER MOTHER WROTE A LETTER,
SAID SHE THOUGHT IT WOULD BE BETTER
IF SHE WOULD JUST STAY GONE.
SHE KNEW OF HER CONDITION,
BUT SHE WOULDN'T GIVE PERMISSION
FOR HER TO COME BACK HOME.
SO SHE CALLED THE BOY WHO LOVED HER
BUT ALL HE DID WAS SNUB HER,
SAID, "FACE IT ON YOUR OWN."
MM-MM, LOVE DON'T LAST LONG.
A YOUNG MAN GOT UNLUCKY
AND GOT BUSTED IN KENTUCKY,
ASKED HIS DAD TO GO HIS BAIL.
BUT HIS DAD HAD BIG AMBITIONS
WITH THE LOCAL POLITICIANS,
TOLD HIS SON TO GO TO HELL.
HE HUNG HIMSELF THAT MORNING
AND THE NOTE THAT THEY FOUND ON HIM
SAID, "DAD, PLEASE TAKE ME HOME."
MM-MM, LOVE DON'T LAST LONG.
A WOMAN TOLD HER HUSBAND,
SHE LIVED EV'RY DAY TO LOVE HIM,
NOTHING ELSE FITS IN HER PLANS.
THEN WITHOUT A WARNING,
HE CAME HOME FROM WORK ONE MORNING,
FOUND HER THERE WITH ANOTHER MAN.
IN A FIT OF ANGER
HE TOOK HER LIFE AND THE STRANGER'S,
THEN HE TOOK HIS OWN.
MM-MM, LOVE DON'T LAST LONG.
MM, MM, MM, MM, MM,
MM, MM, MM, MM, MM,
MM, MM, MM, MM.

LATELY, I'VE BEEN SO CRAZY,
I WANNA TALK TO YOU,
I NEED TO TALK TO YOU.
AND LATELY, YOU AIN'T MY BABY,
I WANT A WORD WITH YOU, (I want a word with you)
A MOMENT ALONE WITH YOU.
'CAUSE YOU, YOU WERE A PART OF MY HEAVEN, MY SHINING STAR.
AND NOW, I LOOK AT YOU AND I WONDER JUST WHO YOU ARE.
IT'S NO SECRET,
WHAT YOUR LOVE, (what your love) WHAT YOUR LOVE IS DOING TO ME
IT'S NO SECRET,
THAT YOUR LOVE, (that your love) THAT YOUR LOVE, THAT YOUR LOVE IS KILLING ME.
(Oo - oo)
(Oo - oo)
LATELY, I'VE BEEN SO LONELY,
I NEED A SMILE FROM YOU, (I need a smile from you)
SOMETHING TO PULL ME THROUGH.
BUT WE KNOW, LOVE CAN BE MELLOW,
IF WE CAN JUST TALK IT THROUGH, (we can just talk it through)
IT'S GONNA FEEL BRAND NEW. (feel brand new)
'CAUSE YOU, YOU WERE A PART OF MY HEAVEN, MY SHINING STAR.
AND NOW, I LOOK AT YOU AND I WONDER JUST WHERE WE ARE.
IT'S NO SECRET,
WHAT YOUR LOVE, (what your love) WHAT YOUR LOVE IS DOING TO ME
AND IT'S NO SECRET,
HOW YOUR LOVE, (how your love) HOW YOUR LOVE, HOW YOUR LOVE IS HURTING ME.
(How your love is hurting, how your love is hurting)
IT'S NO SECRET,
WHAT YOUR LOVE HAS MEANT FOR ME.
AND IT'S NO SECRET,
WHAT YOUR LOVE, WHAT YOUR LOVE IS DOING TO ME.
IT'S NO SECRET,
THAT YOUR LOVE IS HURTING ME.
AND IT'S NO SECRET,
THAT YOUR LOVE, THAT YOUR LOVE IS KILLING ME.
IT'S NO SECRET,
HOW YOUR LOVE IS HURTING ME.

I KNOW A PLACE THAT'S WILD BUT SAFE,
WHERE OAK TREES GROW WITH PINE.
WHERE THE BIG BAD WOLF MEETS RED RIDING HOOD
AND THEY LAUGH AND GET ALONG JUST FINE.
AND WHEN I THINK OF YOU AND THINK OF ME,
I WONDER WHO'S YOU A WHICH IS ME.
WHEN THE CLOCK STRIKES TWELVE,
WILL IT BE SAFE FOR ME?
I KNOW A PLACE IN THE US OF A,
WHERE THE STATUE OF LIBERTY STANDS TALL.
WHERE A FAT PUSSY CAT AND A LITTLE WHITE MOUSE
WALTZ HAPPY AT A BALL.
AND WHEN I THINK OF YOU AND THINK OF ME,
I WONDER WHO'S YOU A WHICH IS ME.
WILL THE FAT PUSSY CAT EAT THIS LITTLE WHITE MOUSE FOR TEA?
DIALOG:
SCOUSE SINGS IN ANIMO TO HIS FRIEND, GEOFFREY THE CAT
DON'T EAT ME, LET'S BE FRIENDS,
DON'T EAT ME, LET'S BE FRIENDS,
DON'T EAT ME, LET'S BE FRIENDS,
DON'T EAT ME, LET'S BE FRIENDS.
DIALOG:
"THANK YOU, THANK YOU. HERE'S A SONG YOU MAY HAVE HEARD BEFORE, "SNOW UP YOUR NOSE FOR CHRISTMAS". HAPPY NEW YEAR, EVERYBODY!"
SNOW UP YOUR NOSE FOR CHRISTMAS...
DIALOG:
SCOUSE LEFT THE STAGE AND JOINED GEOFFREY THE CAT AT HIS TABLE.
"I CAN SEE WHAT YOU MEAN."
"I HOPE YOU WOULD."
"LOOK HERE, WE'VE GOT A LITTLE PLACE, WE CALL IT 'THE DISCATEQUE'. HOW ABOUT A DRINK AND A DANCE AND SOME CONVERSATION?"
"WHY NOT?"
"I WILL COME SCRATCHING ON YOUR CABIN DOOR."
SOON AFTER MIDNIGHT, SCOUSE HEARD A GENTLE SCRATCH AND FAINT MEOW. GEOFFREY WAS WAITING OUTSIDE.
"WHAT'S THAT YOU'VE GOT THERE?"
"BRITISH AIRWAYS BAG. A FEW PRESENTS FOR THE CATS."
"COME ON!"
"WHERE ARE WE GOING?"
"YOU'LL SEE."
ALONG THE MAIN CORRIDOR AND DOWN THREE FLIGHTS OF STEPS, TO A LITTLE TRAP DOOR WHICH SWUNG IN EACH DIRECTION. A LITTLE DOOR MARKED 'DANGER! INSPECTION TRAP!'.
"THROUGH HERE."
SCOUSE FELT HIMSELF FALLING THROUGH SPACE. HE LANDED WITH A BUMP.
"YOU, YOU MIGHT HAD KILLED ME!"
"SUPPOSE SO. KNOW WHERE WE ARE?"
"NO?"
"INSPECTION SHAFT. WE'RE ABOVE THE OCEAN HERE."
"IT'S COLD AND DAMP! IS, IS THIS THE DISCATEQUE?"
"YES, IT'S A GOOD FLOOR FOR DANCING."
"WHERE, WHERE ARE THE CATS?"
MEOW! MEOW! MEOW!... (cat noises)
"LET'S HAVE SOME LIGHT! THERE'S A MOON! HEAVE-HO! MY HEARTY!"
A SMALL POT HOLE WAS OPENED. SCOUSE COULD SMELL THE SEA.
"WE'RE GOING TO HAVE A DANCE NOW AND AFTER THAT WE'LL SENTENCE YOU!"
"OH, WHAT FOR?"
"PRETENDING TO BE A HUMAN BEING. ENGAGE, CHAPS! THE DANCE IS ON."
"THERE'S NO MUSIC?"
"WE MAKE THE MUSIC. EVER HEARD OF A CATERWAUL?"
(Starkey/Hudson/Grakal/Dudas)
Sometimes it's a lonely life I lead
Sometimes I just don't care
No one around me to put me down
Me - I can go anywhere
Well I'm alone but I'm alright
I'm on my own on a Saturday night
I don't know why honey I don't care
(Chorus)
I'll be fine anywhere, I'm doing alright
I'll be fine anywhere, I know a lot about living
It don't pay to care, I'll be fine anywhere
Well I say somewhere down the line
If nobody's next to me
Don't need no one to reminisce
All of my memories
Well I'm alone but that's alright
I'm on my own on a Saturday night
I don't know and sugar I don't care
(to Chorus)
I got no worries when I'm out running around
The devil don't own my my angel told me
Man you're heaven bound
Well I'm alone but that's alright
Every day is Saturday night
I don't know and I don't really care
When I woke up this morning
Much to my surprise
The sun was going down
And I was still alive
I looked into the mirror
And according to my eyes
The Martians have invaded
It's hopeless
I went to see my doctor
To ask him what to do
Depending on the
Diagnosis
I said, "Doc, I'm seeing double
And how are both of you?"
No cause for alarm
It's hopeless
You don't stand a chance
It's hopeless
Everybody dance
Well, there's paradise and doomsday
It depends on which comes first
There's inner peace
Through meditation
There's optimists and pessimists
I don't know which is worse
But the yogi mow mow, but the yogi mow mow
It's hopeless
The solution has been dissolved
The crisis has been resolved
There's no need to change your plans
It's a hopeless situation
For tomorrow is another day
And everything will be okay
And by the way
By Randy Newman
HAVE YOU SEEN MY BABY ON THE AVENUE?
YOU KNOW SHE'S DRIVING ME CRAZY
WITH THE FUNNY THINGS SHE DO.
I SEEN HER WITH THE MILKMAN,
RIDIN' DOWN THE STREET,
WHEN YOU'RE THROUGH WITH MY BABY, MILKMAN,
SEND HER HOME TO ME.
HOLD ON, HOLD ON, HOLD ON,
HOLD ON, HOLD ON, HOLD ON.
YOU KNOW IT'S BEEN SO LONG
SINCE SHE HAS BEEN GONE,
HOLD ON, HOLD ON, HOLD ON.
I SEEN HER WITH THE GYPSIES, DANCIN' IN THE WOODS,
SHE'S ALWAYS BEEN UNFAITHFUL TO ME,
SHE'S NEVER BEEN GOOD.
I SAID, "PLEASE, DON'T TALK TO STRANGERS, BABY."
BUT SHE ALWAYS DO.
SHE SAID, "I TALK TO STRANGERS IF I WANT TO
'CAUSE I'M A STRANGER TOO."
HOLD ON, HOLD ON, HOLD ON,
HOLD ON, HOLD ON, HOLD ON.
YOU KNOW IT'S BEEN SO LONG
SINCE SHE HAS BEEN GONE,
HOLD ON, HOLD ON, HOLD ON.
ALRIGHT!
HOLD ON, HOLD ON, HOLD ON,
HOLD ON, HOLD ON, HOLD ON.
YOU KNOW IT'S BEEN SO LONG
SINCE SHE HAS BEEN GONE,
HOLD ON, HOLD ON, HOLD ON,
HOLD ON, HOLD ON, HOLD ON.
BARA-OOMPAH-OOMPAH-PAH-PAH!
She asks me 'round to have a bite to eat
When I get there, she's invited the street
She gives me hard times
But when she loves me, she loves me
She gives me hard times
But when she loves me, she loves me
I tell her that I'd rather be alone
She gets the car and says she'll drive me home
She gives me hard times
But when she loves me, she loves me
She gives me hard times
But when she loves me, she loves me
Now take a night, like the night we met
I was drinking in the bar, just tryin' to forget
When she comes home and says, "You're looking blue."
I said, "With my problems so, wouldn't you?"
She takes me home and slips on something cool
She gives me kisses where she don't as a rule
She gives me hard times
But when she loves me, she loves me
Take it away, sugar
She gives me hard times
But when she loves me, she loves me
Now take a night, like the night we met
I was drinking in the bar, just tryin' to forget
When she comes home and says, "You're looking blue."
I said, "With my problems so, wouldn't you?"
She takes me home and slips on something cool
She gives me kisses where she don't as a rule
She gives me hard times
But when she loves me, she loves me
She gives me hard times
But when she loves me, she loves me
(She give me, she give me such hard times)
(She give me, she give me such hard times)
(She give me, she give me such hard times)
(She give me, she give me such hard times)
(She give me, she give me such hard times)
(She give me, she give me such hard times)
I've been down one time
And I've been down two times
But now I'm drowning
Drowning in the sea of love
I've been here so very long
I've lost all my directions
But baby, when you came my way
I thought I had found protection
But a strong wind came into my life
It surely took me by surprise
I can't seem to control these tears
Flowing from my eyes
I've been down (one time) one time
I've been down (two times) two times
But I'm drowning
Drowning in the sea of love
You know that I depend on you
For our love's an obligation
But now that you've deserted me
I'm in desperation
But I'm in the middle of a bad love storm
It really took me by surprise
I look around and all I see
Is water coming over me
I've been down (one time) one time
I've been down (two times) two times
But I'm drowning
Drowning in the sea of love
I've been down (one time) one time
I've been down (two times) two times
But I'm drowning
Drowning in the sea of love
Drowning, you know I'm drowning
(Watch your love, watch your love, yeah-hey)
(Watch your love, watch your love)
I'm going down for the last time
(Drowning in the sea of love, drowning)
(Drowning in the sea of love, drowning)
(Drowning in the sea of love, falling)
(Drowning in the sea of love, falling)
(Drowning in the sea of love)
(Drowning in the sea of love)
(Drowning in the sea of love)
(Drowning in the sea of love)
(Watch your love, watch your love)
(Watch your love, watch your love)
(Watch your love, watch your love)
(Drowning in the sea of love, drowning)
(Drowning in the sea of love, drowning)
(Drowning in the sea of love, falling)
(Drowning in the sea of love, falling)
(One time)
(Two times)
(Drowning)
(Drowning in the sea of love)
(One time)
(Two times)
I'm going down (Two times)
(Drowning) Drowning
Drowning in the sea of love
I've been down (one time) one time
I've been down (two times) two times
But I'm drowning
Drowning in the sea of love, woah
(Drowning in the sea of love) I'm drowning
(Drowning in the sea of love) I'm falling
(Drowning in the sea of love) Yeah
(Drowning in the sea of love)
We can put a man on the moon
Make it snow in the heat of June
It's amazing . . . what we can do
You can see the sights of Rome
Shop in Paris and jet back home
Got our dreams in flight
We've come so far
Think we're doing alright
But we don't know a thing about love
No not much
We don't know a thing about love
Don't know a thing about it
Everybody needs someone
A little love when the day is done
But it's not easy it's hard to do
There's no right and there's no wrong
We don't need science to get along
It takes a woman and a man
It's all there to understand
We don't know a thing about love
No not much
Don't know a thing about love
Don't know a thing about it
There ain't nothing we can't do
It's all up to me and you
Got our dreams in flight
We've come so far but
It's still not right
Cause we don't know a thing about love
No not much
Don't know a thing about love
By Richard Starkey, Mark Hudson and Dean Grakal

WE DIDN'T HAVE THE TIME TO THINK THINGS OVER,
WE HAD A LOT OF FUN, WE HAD SOME TEARS.
STEPPING OUT OF LONELINESS,
NOW THE ROAD DON'T SEEM SO LONG,
AFTER ALL THESE YEARS.
ROCK AND ROLL HAS GOT A REPUTATION,
BAD BOYS CAUSE A LOT OF FEAR.
BUT I NEVER MEANT TO REALLY HURT YOU, OH NO, NO,
AFTER ALL THESE YEARS.
TRAVELLING THE WORLD IN A ROCK AND ROLL BAND,
IT'S IN MY BLOOD, IT'S IN MY BLOOD.
OOH, BUT YOU KNOW, IT'S GOOD TO BE BACK HOME.
DANCING WITH YOUR SISTER ON A SATURDAY NIGHT,
IT'S UNDERSTOOD, IT'S UNDERSTOOD.
WHEN EV'RY BOY AND GIRL,
OOH, WAS ROCKING ALL OVER THE WORLD.
AFTER ALL THESE YEARS.
TRAVELLING THE WORLD IN A ROCK AND ROLL BAND,
IT'S IN MY BLOOD, IT'S IN MY BLOOD.
OOH, BUT YOU KNOW, IT'S GOOD TO BE BACK HOME.

OOOH...ONE, TWO...
MAMA, I GUESS YOU HAVE STOOD AND CURSED
THE DAY I FOUND THAT OLD GUITAR.
WHEN UNCLE HARRY DIED,
THE ONE WE FOUND IN THE BOOT OF HIS OLD CAR.
I REMEMBER HOW MY LITTLE FINGERS BLISTERED
WHEN I TRIED TO LEARN TO PLAY,
I BET YOU NEVER DREAMED THAT OLD GUITAR
WOULD PUT ME WHERE I AM TODAY.
YES, IT'S BEEN A LOT OF YEARS,
I GUESS IT'S BEEN AN INTERESTING LIFE.
NO, MAM, I NEVER FOUND ANOTHER WOMAN
THAT I WANTED FOR A WIFE.
I GUESS THE FIRST TIME SHOWED US
THAT I WASN'T THE DOMESTICATED KIND,
BUT I DON'T BLAME HER FOR GETTING TIRED
OF LIVING FROM A SUITCASE ALL THE TIME.
YES, I KNOW SOMETIMES IT LOOKS
LIKE I'VE JUST SIMPLY THROWN MY LIFE AWAY.
I JUST ALWAYS FIGURED THAT IF I HUNG ON,
I'D MAKE IT BIG SOME DAY.
I GUESS IT TAKES A SPECIAL BREED
TO LIVE THIS LIFE AND THINK THE WAY I DO,
BUT YOU'LL BE GLAD TO HEAR THAT ANY MORE
I AIN'T NEAR AS BAD TO DRINK.
HOW IS TOMMY DOING WITH THE BUSINESS
NOW THAT DADDY'S PASSED AWAY?
I'M SURE DADDY ALWAYS KNEW THAT TOM
WOULD BE THE ONE TO TAKE HIS PLACE.
AND WHEN HE TRIED TO LECTURE ME,
I'D SIT AND PICK AND SING AND LET HIM NAG,
BUT WAY DOWN DEEP INSIDE I THINK
HE ALWAYS KNEW THAT HARDWARE AIN'T MY BAG.
WE OPEN MONDAY NIGHT IN BOLTON CITY
FOR ANOTHER TWO WEEK STAND,
I WISH THERE WAS SOME WAY THAT YOU AND TOM
COULD COME AND HEAR MY BAND.
WISH I HAD THE TIME TO TELL YOU 'BOUT THE
PLACES THAT I'VE BEEN, THE THINGS I SAW.
AND I'LL SEND THE FIFTEEN DOLLARS SOON
AS I GET TO THE CLUB AND MAKE A DRAW.
WHEN YOU'RE HOT, YOU'RE HOT THERE...
AH, I MEAN, AH, WHEN...WHAT IS...
WHEN YOU'RE HOT, YOU'RE HOT, YEAH, OKAY...

LOVE IS A MANY SPLENDOURED THING,
IT'S THE APRIL ROSE THAT ONLY GROWS
IN THE EARLY SPRING.
LOVE IS NATURE'S WAY OF GIVING
A REASON TO BE LIVING,
THE GOLDEN CROWN THAT MAKES A MAN A KING.
ONCE ON A HIGH AND WINDY HILL,
IN THE MORNING MIST, TWO LOVERS KISSED
AND THE WORLD STOOD STILL.
THEN YOUR FINGERS TOUCHED MY SILENT HEART
AND TAUGHT IT HOW TO SING,
YES, TRUE LOVE'S A MANY SPLENDOURED THING.
ONCE ON A HIGH AND WINDY HILL,

AND THE WORLD STOOD STILL.

Y'r feelin' down

If your mamma don't feel good
Or your daddy don't feel good
Take a dose of rock 'n' roll
And wash it down with cool clear soul
Y' better get y'r ripple soles out
Ease out all your mean controls
Take a dose of rock 'n' roll
And wash it down with cool clear soul
Turn on your radio
Start dancin' to the moon
The old heart radio is gonna
Get y', get y', get y', in the mood
you came out of a dream
Peaches and cream
Lips like strawberry wine
You're sixteen
you're beautiful and you're mine.
You're all ribbons and curls
what a girl!
Eyes that sparkle and shine
You're sixteen.
Vou're beautiful and you are mine.
You're my baby
you're my pet
We fell in love on the night we met.
You touched my hand
my heart went "pop"
And ooh
when we kissed I could not stop.
You walked out of my dream
Into my arms
Now you're my angel divine
You're sixteen
You're beautiful and you're mine.
you came mine.
you came out of a dream
By Richard Sherman and Robert Sherman

EYES THAT SPARKLE AND SHINE.
YOU'RE SIXTEEN, YOU'RE BEAUTIFUL AND YOU'RE MINE.
(Mine, all mine, mine, mine)
YOU'RE MY BABY, YOU'RE MY PET,
WE FELL IN LOVE ON THE NIGHT WE MET.
YOU TOUCHED MY HAND, MY HEART WENT POP,

WHAT SHALL WE DO WITH THE DRUNKEN SAILOR?
WHAT SHALL WE DO WITH THE DRUNKEN SAILOR?
Sometimes I wonder why I spend
The lonely nights, dreaming of a song
The melody haunts my reverie
And I am once again with you
When our love was new and each kiss
An inspiration but that was long ago
Now my consolation
Is in the stardust of a song
Beside a garden wall where
Stars are bright, you are in my arms
The nightingale tells his fairytale
Of paradise where roses grew
Though I dream in vain
In my heart it will remain
My stardust melody
The memory of loves refrain
Ah, hit me
The nightingale tells his fairytale
Of paradise where roses grew
Though I dream in vain
In my heart it will remain
My stardust melody
What love wants to be
is a song that lasts forever
the perfect melody
when two hearts sing together
the moon can't shine, without the sun
on my own I'm only one
now I have a reason to believe
what love wants to be
you are that to me.
What love wants to be
is deeped than an ocean
green eyes like the see
reflecting true devotion
when the night is still, the stars that shine
say yet again that you are mine
no need to keep on searching endlessly
what love wants to be
you are that to me.
After the band is gone
we will keep dancing on
like every night, is Saturday night.
What love wants to be
we've heard it through the ages
but no one ever told me that is free
what love wants to be
you are that to me
what love wants to be.
You are that to me.
(Ah, ah)
You say you know me, you really know me
But you don't know me at all
Thinkin' that I just do't care
Any minute I'm not there
Sittin' all alone, picking up the phone to call
You say you need me, but though you need me
You wonder how did you fall
But if you swear it can't be true
That I should care the way I do
Then you don't know me at all
(Ah, ah)
(Shoobi doo dam dam)
I'm not foolin' around
It's nothing new, I'm telling you
This heart of mine beats just for you
(Shoobi doo dam dam)
You're the only one
And there's no reason I should ever lie
(Oh, oh)
You say you need me, (ahh) but though you need me (ahh)
You wonder how did you fall
But if you swear it can't be true
That I could feel the same way too
Then you don't know me at all
You don't know me (ahh)
You don't know me (ahh)
You don't, (shoobi doo dam dam)
(Shoobi doo dam dam)
You don't know me at all
You don't know me (shoobi doo dam dam)
You don't know me (shoobi doo dam dam)
You don't know me, you don't know me at all
You don't know me (shoobi doo dam dam)
You don't know me (shoobi doo dam dam)

YOU ALWAYS HURT THE ONE YOU LOVE,
THE ONE YOU SHOULDN'T HURT AT ALL.
YOU ALWAYS TAKE THE SWEETEST ROSE
AND CRUSH IT UNTIL THE PETALS FALL.
YOU ALWAYS BREAK THE KINDEST HEART
WITH A HASTY WORD YOU CAN'T RECALL.
SO IF I BROKE YOUR HEART LAST NIGHT
IT'S BECAUSE I LOVE YOU MOST OF ALL.
YOU ALWAYS BREAK THE KINDEST HEART
WITH A HASTY WORD YOU CAN'T RECALL.
SO IF I BROKE YOUR HEART LAST NIGHT
IT'S BECAUSE I LOVE YOU MOST OF ALL.
IT'S BECAUSE I LOVE YOU MOST OF ALL.
Uh - doo-doo-doo
A young man strumming his guitar
in the corner of a bar
singing ‘bout a brocken heart
for hours and hours
by closing time I face the fact
that if I had a gift like that
I know that I could win her back
but there's some things I can't do
so now it's up to you.
Write one for me
put the perfect words together
write one for me
the melody to last forever
I don't have the song, so if you please
tell her she's a right one for me.
It does no good for you to play
a pretty song like Yesterday
‘cause that's not what I need to say
to get her to love me
I'm too scared to tell her so
so if you'd be my Cyrano
and send to her a tune I know
that she would send her mind
so take a little time and...
Write one for me ...
If I could have a poem, I would send one
but I don't have a pen, I can't depend on
I can't come up with a single line
so would you write the song
and tell her what's is my mine, all mine.
By Sorrells Pickard
SOFTLY I SEARCH MY MEM'RYS
AND HOPE I MAY FIND YESTERDAY.
AND JUST LIKE HER, MY THOUGHTS WANDER
AND LIKE HER QUIETLY SLIP AWAY.
LOVE BRINGS OUT THE WEAKNESS IN A MAN
AND I'M SO WEAK I JUST CAN'T STAND
TO BE WITHOUT HER,
WITHOUT HER,
WITHOUT HER.
THERE WAS A TIME SHE WALKED WITH ME,
BUT YESTERDAY COMES ONLY ONE TIME.
AND I CAN SEE A TOMORROW
WITH YESTERDAY CLING TO MY MIND.
TIME WILL TAKE HER MEMORY THEY SAY,
BUT IT GETS HARDER EV'RY DAY,
TO LIVE WITHOUT HER,
WITHOUT HER,
WITHOUT HER.

LOOK AT ME NOW, AIN'T I A SIGHT?
EYES BLOODY RED, FACE PUFFY WHITE.
HAIR TANGLED UP AND WRINKLED OLD CLOTHES,
I'M A LIVING EXAMPLE OF A BIG OVERDOSE OF:
WINE, WOMEN AND LOUD HAPPY SONGS,
I HAD ALL THREE BUT NONE LASTED LONG.
THE WOMEN RAN OFF, I DRANK ALL THE WINE
AND THE SONGS DIED AWAY WHEN I RAN OUT OF DIMES.
IT'S STRANGE HOW THE WINE WORKS ON A FOOL,
IT SEEPS THROUGH HIS MIND,
LEAVES HIM GLUED TO THE STOOL.
WOMEN LEAVE YOU WISHING YOU'D JUST NEVER BEEN
BUT THE SONGS MAKES YOU HAPPY,
SOON YOU'RE SEARCHING AGAIN FOR:
WINE, WOMEN AND LOUD HAPPY SONGS,
I HAD ALL THREE BUT NONE LASTED LONG.
THE WOMEN RAN OFF, I DRANK ALL THE WINE
AND THE SONGS DIED AWAY WHEN I RAN OUT OF DIMES.

WHO NEEDS A HEART THAT IS BROKEN IN TWO?
WHO NEEDS A DREAM THAT'S BEEN SHATTERED?
WHO CRIES FOR MORE WHEN THE JOY TURNS TO PAIN?
YOU JUST PRETEND IT NEVER MATTERED.
(Tell me, who needs a love like yours?)
THAT IS BRINGING ME DOWN?
(And tell me, who sees a love like ours?)
THAT WENT WRONG FROM THE START?
YOU HAVE BROKEN MY HEART,
WE'RE JUST OCEANS APART
BUT STILL IT DOESN'T MATTER.
WHY DOES IT HURT WHEN YOU KNOW WHO'S TO BLAME?
WHY WERE THE WORDS SOFTLY SPOKEN?
WHY WASTE THE TIME WHEN WE'VE BEEN THERE BEFORE?
THE TIES THAT BIND ARE ALMOST BROKEN.
(Tell me, who needs a love like yours?)
THAT IS BRINGING ME DOWN?
(And tell me, who sees a love like ours?)
THAT WENT WRONG FROM THE START?
YOU HAVE BROKEN MY HEART,
WE'RE STILL OCEANS APART
BUT STILL IT DOESN'T MATTER.
WE'RE JUST OCEANS APART
BUT STILL IT DOESN'T MATTER.
WHO CRIES FOR MORE WHEN THE JOY TURNS TO PAIN?
YOU JUST PRETEND IT NEVER MATTERED,
YOU JUST PRETEND IT NEVER MATTERED.
WHO NEEDS A HEART THAT'S BEEN SHATTERED?
WHO NEEDS A DREAM THAT'S BEEN BROKEN?

I'M DREAMING OF A WHITE CHRISTMAS,
JUST LIKE THE ONES WE USED TO KNOW.
WHERE THE TREETOPS GLISTEN, AND CHILDREN LISTEN
TO HEAR SLEIGH BELLS IN THE SNOW.
I'M DREAMING OF A WHITE CHRISTMAS,
WITH EV'RY CHRISTMAS CARD I WRITE.
MAY YOUR DAYS BE MERRY AND BRIGHT
AND MAY ALL YOUR CHRISTMASES BE WHITE.
"BLUE, MAYBE PINK, OR THAT A LITTLE CERISSE
ALL THE COLOURS OF THE RAINBOW."
I'M DREAMING OF A WHITE CHRISTMAS,
WITH EV'RY CHRISTMAS CARD I WRITE.
MAY YOUR DAYS BE MERRY AND BRIGHT
AND MAY ALL YOUR CHRISTMASES BE WHITE. (may all your Chrismases be white)
AND MAY ALL YOUR CHRISTMASES BE WHITE. (may all your Chrismases be white)
AND MAY ALL YOUR CHRISTMASES BE WHITE.

TIME IT GOES
BUT IT MOVES SO SLOW WHEN YOU'RE WAITING.
AND IT'S NOT MUCH FUN
WHEN YOU LET SOMEONE KEEP YOU WAITING.
BUT YOU HAD ME AND YOU'VE STILL GOT ME
WOND'RING WHAT YOU'LL DO,
'TIL YOU FIND YOUR WAY BACK TO ME,
I'LL BE WAITING FOR YOU.
EV'RY DAY
IS YESTERDAY WHEN YOU'RE WAITING.
AND YOU DREAM A LOT
THAT'S ALL YOU GOT WHEN YOU'RE WAITING.
YOU HAD ME AND YOU'VE STILL GOT ME
WOND'RING WHAT YOU'LL DO,
'TIL YOU FIND YOUR WAY BACK TO ME,
I'LL BE WAITING FOR YOU.

We were once upon a time
then your love disappeared
you can't help crying
when you love something so dear
there's a mile of heartache that I had to cross
face down, longing for the love I lost
I can't help wonderin'
how I ended up here.
So I cried so hard
I was trippin' on my own tears.
What was so confusing
is now becoming so clear
she tried to tell me
what I never wanted to hear
it don't matter if the sun does shine
it's always clouded know that you're not mine
for one foolish moment
won't you forgive me dear.
So I cried so hard
I was trippin' on my own tears.
Why you can't that I'm dying?
I'm not a saint, but god I'm trying, trying.
It don't matter
if you're wrong or wright
when you're walking the floor
and you're up all the night
I'll wait for you
if it takes a millions years.
Well I cried so hard
I was trippin' on my own tears
(Good morning, campers!)
I'm your uncle Ernie,
And I welcome you to Tommy's holiday camp
The camp with no difference,
Never mind the weather
When you come to Tommy's, the holiday forever
The camp with no difference,
Never mind the weather
When you come to Tommy's, the holiday forever

Now get yourself together
Welcome!)

STOP AND TAKE THE TIME TO SMELL THE ROSES,
STOP AND TAKE THE TIME TO FILL YOUR NOSES,
STOP AS YOU STROLL THROUGH LIFE, ("pitter patter, pitter patter")
STOP AND TAKE THE TIME TO TALK IT OVER WITH YOUR WIFE.

"BROTHER, LET'S GET OUT AND WALK, LET'S GO! CAN YOU HEAR ME?"
STOP,
YOU KNOW WHEN YOU'RE ACCIDENT PRONE,
NOBODY LIKES YOU.
WAVE TO A MAN IN A ROLLS
'CAUSE HE KNOWS HOW TO LIVE, HA! HA!...
STOP AND TAKE THE TIME TO STOP THAT SMOKING,
STOP, BEFORE THE LIGHT TURNS GREEN.
YOU WON'T BE BLUE.
STOP, IN THE NAME OF THE LAW!
"WELL, I WAS WALKING DOWN THE STREET THE OTHER DAY,
YOU KNOW, AND I SAID TO MYSELF, WHAT'S ALL THIS HURRY,
WHAT'S ALL THIS HUSTLE AND BUSTLE.
WHY DON'T I JUST STOP, LOOK AT THE PRETTY ROSES,
SMELL THEM FOR ONE MOMENT, TAKE THE TIME TO SEE,
TAKE THE TIME TO SMELL, HAVE A GOOD TIME IN LIFE.
DON'T LET EV''RYTHING PASS YOU BY, YOU'RE ONLY HERE ONCE
AND I'VE BEEN HERE LONGER THAN MOST OF YOU."
SO STOP AND TAKE THE TIME TO BUY THIS ALBUM,
SO I CAN PLANT ROSES AND SMELL THEM ALL DAY LONG.

I KEEP TELLING MYSELF THAT YOU LOVE ME.
OH MY, I'M UP IN THE SKY,

WHEN I SPOKE TO HIM IN CHINA, THE TRAGOPAN SAID,
I DON'T WANNA NIGGLE, BUT I THINK I'LL SOON BE DEAD.
IF THEY CHOP DOWN THE TREES I'LL HAVE NOWHERE TO HIDE,
ALONG WILL COME A HUNTER AND HE'LL TAKE ME BY SURPRISE.
LET'S SING A SONG FOR THE TRAGOPAN,
THE PHEASANT WHO CAN'T LIVE WITHOUT EASE.
DON'T LET THEM CHOP DOWN THE TREES THAT HE'LL NEED,
THE TRAGOPAN CAN'T LIVE WITHOUT LEAVES.
LAST SEEN IN CHINA, THE TRAGOPAN SAID,
HOW WOULD YOU FEEL IF THEY TOOK AWAY YOUR BED,
CLOSED UP YOUR GARAGE AND PULLED OUT THE PHONE,
TOOK AWAY THE DEEP FREEZE AND LEFT YOU ALL ALONE?
LET'S SING A SONG FOR THE TRAGOPAN,
THE PHEASANT WHO CAN'T LIVE WITHOUT EASE.

SCOUSE WAS LEARNING ENGLISH. HE WAS LEARNING ENGLISH FROM THE TELEVISION. AT NIGHT, WHEN THE FAMILY HAD GONE TO BED, HE PRETENDED TO BE A SINGER. HE IMAGINED HE WAS WITH THE JOLLY FAMILY ON THE TELEVISION SCREEN. HE WROTE A SONG.
AS HE SANG HIS SONG, HE PRETENDED THE JOLLIES WERE WITH HIM, PLAYING HIS MUSIC.

PATIENTLY SHE STARES DOWN THE RUNWAY,
TODAY'S THE DAY THAT HE IS COMING HOME.
SEEMS LIKE HE'S BEEN GONE A LIFE TIME
AND A LIFE TIME IS A LONG TIME TO BE GONE.
BUT THERE ARE SONGS THAT NEED SINGING,
AND THERE ARE THINGS THAT MUST BE DONE.
THERE ARE THOUGHTS THAT STILL NEED THINKING,
AND THERE ARE WARS THAT MUST BE WON.
HE WAS JUST A BOY WHEN THEY SENT FOR HIM
AND OVERNIGHT TURNED HIM INTO A MAN.
PROUDLY HE HAD SERVED HIS COUNTRY
IN A WAR HE DIDN'T SEEM TO UNDERSTAND.
THE FLAG STILL WAVES, HIS WAR IS OVER,
HE'LL NEVER HAVE TO KILL AGAIN.
AND AS SHE WAITS, SHE THINKS IT OVER,
IS WINNING WORTH THE PRIZE WE PAY TO WIN?
HER THOUGHTS KEEP WANDERING TO HIS CHILDHOOD,
WHEN ALL HIS HAND GRENADES WERE MERELY TOYS.
AND "WAR" WAS JUST A GAME THAT HE WAS PLAYING
WITH PLASTIC GUNS LIKE OTHER LITTLE BOYS.
AND EV'RY DAY WHEN PLAY WAS OVER,
HE'D PUT HIS LITTLE TOYS AWAY.
AND SHE'D BE STANDING, WAITING FOR HIM,
THE WAY SHE'S WAITING HERE TODAY.
AS THE PLANE STOPS SHE STARTS THINKING,
WILL HE STILL LOOK THE WAY HE DID BEFORE?
OR WILL HIS EYES REFLECT THE PAIN OF KILLING,
LIKE MOST YOUNG MEN WHEN THEY COME HOME FROM WAR?
THESE LAST FEW MINUTES SEEM LIKE HOURS,
SHE TRIES HER BEST NOT TO CRY.
BUT THERE'S THAT HEARSE FILLED UP WITH FLOWERS,
DID HE REALLY HAVE TO DIE?
NO, NO, NO, NO,
NO, NO, NO, NO, NO,
NO, NO, NO,
NO, NO,
NO, NO,
NO, NO, NO,

A lady that I know just came from Columbia
She smiled because I did not understand
Then she held out some marijuani ha-ha
She said it was the best in all the land
And I said:
No no no no, I don't smoke it no more
I'm tired of waking up on the floor
No, thank you, please,
It only makes me sneeze
And then it makes it hard to find the door
A woman that I know just came from Majorca Spain
She smiled because I did not understand
Then she held out a 10 pound bag of Cocaine
She said it was the best in all the land

No no no no, I don't sniff it no more
I'm tired of waking up on the floor
No, thank you, please,
It only makes me sneeze
And then it makes it hard to find the door
A man I know just came from Nashville Tennessee oh
He smiled because I did not understand

Love me do
Someone to love
Somebody new
Someone to love
Someone like you
Love, love me do
You know I love you
I'll always be true
So please
Love me do
A cat has nine lives
But man you don't live twice
You can play for a price
WITH YOUR GRANDADDY'S dice
If you wanna be the king
You gotta go to Memphis in your mind
It's a bad point of view
If THAT GLOOM got through to you
Well I kissed Peggy Sue
And you could have TOO
Ain't that a shame
You never went to Memphis in your mind
There's no place cooler
When you got your Bop-A-Lula on
Slip into your blue suede shoes
We're dancing' till the break of dawn
Sun records will be playing
You'll know every word they're sayings true
Heartbreak Hotel is taking reservations
There's a room for you
You can go to any town
Get up but not get down
If you wanna hear that rockin' sound
You go to Memphis in your mind
You can have two left feet
And you can still keep the beat
If you're sixteen and sweet
Or you can't leave your seat
If you wanna be the king
You gotta go to Memphis in your mind
We CAN'T all be king
SO GO TO MEMPHIS IN YOUR MIND
By J. Keirn Brennan and Ernest R. Ball
WITH SOMEONE LIKE YOU,
A PAL SO GOOD AND TRUE,
I'D LIKE TO LEAVE IT ALL BEHIND AND GO AND FIND
SOME PLACE THAT'S KNOWN TO GOD ALONE,
JUST A SPOT TO CALL OUR OWN.
WE'LL FIND PERFECT PEACE
WHERE JOYS NEVER CEASE
OUT THERE BENEATH THE KINDLY SKY.
WE'LL BUILD A SWEET LITTLE NEST,
SOMEWHERE IN THE WEST
AND LET THE REST OF THE WORLD GO BY.
(with someone like you,
A pal so good and true,
I'd like to leave it all behind and go and find)
SOME PLACE THAT'S KNOWN TO GOD ALONE,
JUST A SPOT TO CALL OUR OWN.
WE'LL FIND PERFECT PEACE
WHERE JOYS NEVER CEASE
OUT THERE BENEATH THE KINDLY SKY.
WE'LL BUILD A SWEET LITTLE NEST,
SOMEWHERE IN THE WEST
AND LET THE REST OF THE WORLD GO BY.
AND LET THE REST OF THE WORLD GO BY.
A happy man I did encounted
said to thyself be true
one and one is only one
until you become one with you
everywhere you look is lovely
if love is what you choose to see
nothing's hard as you can make it.
It's as easy as one, two, three
here's my philosophy.
And he said:
to be or not to be
I don't care
the question is
are you alive out there
it don't take brains
just heart and soul
I think, therefore I rock'n'roll.
I met the amazing woman
she means all the world to me
in her eyes I saw our futur
she opened my mind to see
she's my serenety.
And she said:
to be or not to be ...
Somewhere, sometime
just look inside
you are the life-line
somewhow, time flies
it feels so good
to cry baby cry.
It's as easy as one, two, three
that's my philosophy.
And I said:
(Starkey/Hudson/Grakal/Dudas)
Can you guess what I'm thinking of
Where's someone that I can love
I just don't know where to start
I'm the king of broken hearts
I was waiting for the bells to ring
My love for her keeps lingering
Praying that she'd wear my ring
Waiting for the crowd to sing
(Chorus)
I'm the king of broken hearts
I've lost before I ever start to love again
I'm the king of broken hearts
I'd give it all away to find a friend again
Again
Where's the dream I had before
She just walked right out the door
I want her back and nothing more
Her note fell on the bedroom floor
(to Chorus)
A heart's no good when it's been broken
Words of love are often spoken
My tears fall like jewels from a crown
Look how fast the tide can turn
Some people live but never learn
I can make a brand new start
Living in a world of broken hearts
By Paul Buckmaster
-"ALONG HERE...."

Daylight is falling
Nighttime is calling
All the lights of Londontown
Slowly disappear
So lay your lovely head on down
And know that I am here
I'm Yours
I'm Yours
Moonbeams shine on
Starlight lights on
All the dreams of everyone
Will meet up in the sky
So sleep and dream
Of shooting stars
And take one for a ride
I'm Yours
I'm Yours
Barbara, I love you
I want you, I need you
Your heart's so big
Your soul's so deep
Your forgiving love so strong
So let me say in my own way
You're everything I am
I am yours
When I was a little boy
Way back home in Liverpool,
My mama told me . . . I was great
Then when I was a teenager,
I knew that I had got something going,
All my friends told me . . . I was great
And now I'm a man
A woman took me by the hand
And you know what she told me . . . I was great
I was in the greatest show on earth,
For what it was worth,
Now I'm only thirty-two,
And all I wanna do, is boogaloo.
I looked in the mirror,
I saw my wife and kids,
And you know what they told me . . . I was great.
Yes, my name is Billy Shears,
You know it has been for so many years,
Now I'm only thirty-two;
And all I wanna do, is boogaloo.
By Ted Daffan
I'M A FOOL TO CARE,
WHEN YOU TREAT ME THIS WAY.
I KNOW I LOVE YOU,
BUT WHAT CAN I DO?
I'M A FOOL TO CARE.
I'M A FOOL TO CRY,
WHEN YOU TELL ME GOODBYE.
YOU LEFT ME SO BLUE,
WHEN YOU WERE UNTRUE,
I'M A FOOL TO CARE.
I KNOW I SHOULD LAUGH
AND CALL IT A DAY.
BUT I KNOW I WOULD CRY
IF YOU WENT AWAY.
I'M A FOOL TO CARE,
WHEN YOU DON'T CARE FOR ME.
SO WHY SHOULD I PRETEND,
I LOSE IN THE END,
I'M A FOOL TO CARE.
BRRR!
I'M A FOOL TO CARE,
WHEN YOU TREAT ME THIS WAY.
I KNOW I LOVE YOU,
BUT WHAT CAN I DO?
I'M A FOOL TO CARE.
When the curtains move
in breezes unexpected
don't you worry
you well always be protected.
Imagine me there
when you see the dancing shadows
in the moonlight
you will alaways have my love
to make it alright.
Imagine me there
let the dawn break
without heartache
all our lives
imagine
never lonely
dream and I'll be
by your side
imagine
trust in love and love is everywhere
imagine me there.
When the next room
feels as far away as China
you can always know, for sure
my love will find you.
Imagine me there ...
Sometimes life can be
a fragile occupation
when I think myself in frantic situations
I imagine you there
so imagine me there

IF I TALKED ABOUT THE GOOD TIMES,
THERE WOULDN'T BE MUCH TO SAY,
FOR SELDOM HAPPY MEM'RIES COME TO MIND.
IF I TALKED ABOUT THE SLEEPLESS NIGHTS
YOU BROUGHT MY WAY,
I'D BE TALKING ALL THE TIME.
FOR EV'RY DREAM THAT CAME MY WAY,
A MILLION PASSED ME BY.
I THOUGHT I COULDN'T BE HURT MORE,
THEN YOU SAID GOODBYE.
IF TALKING NOW OF OTHER THINGS,
WOULD GET YOU OFF MY MIND,
I'D BE TALKING ALL THE TIME.
FOR EV'RY DREAM THAT CAME MY WAY,
A MILLION PASSED ME BY.
I THOUGHT I COULDN'T BE HURT MORE,
THEN YOU SAID GOODBYE.
IF TALKING NOW OF OTHER THINGS,
WOULD GET YOU OFF MY MIND,
I'D BE TALKING ALL THE TIME.
YEH, RINGO'D BE TALKING ALL THE TIME.
When every song is sung
When every bell's been rung
When every picture's hung up
I'll still love you
When every wind has blown
When every seed is sown
When everything is known
Then I'll still love you
You know I'll love you, yes I will
You know I'll love you, love you, love you
Always will, until
When every soul is free
When every eye can see
When people all agree
Then I'll still love you
You know I love you, yes I do
When times get so hard, you know
I'll be there loving you
You know I'll love you, yes, I will
Yes I'm gonna hold you, need you, love you
Always will, love you still
When every note's been sung
When every bell's been rung
When every picture's hung
I'll still love you

CHORUS: I don't believe you
'Cause I've been lied to
Girl you know you've done me wrong
I can see it in your face
I can't take much more of this
Gonna put you in your place
Tellin' lies won't get you far
I learned that in my youth
I'm givin' you just one more chance
And all I want from you is truth
CHORUS twice
Forget about your credit cards
And all your fancy clothes
Forget about those [sung -- "my"] rings and things
and the powder for your nose
It wouldn't take that much from you
To keep me satisfied
But you won't see my face no more
If you don't stop telling lies
CHORUS twice
I love you girl
That much is true
The truth is staring back at you
But you always break my heart in two
Oh why? Oh why?
I know you think what's wrong is right
You seem so happy when we fight
So I won't be coming home tonight
No lie, no lie
I've said all that there is to say
You better make up your mind
If you look into these lonely eyes
The truth is what you'll find
It wouldn't take that much from you
To keep me satisfied
But the next time that you do me wrong
I'll be kissing you good bye
I keep forgettin' you don't love me no more
I keep forgettin' you don't want me no more
I keep forgettin' that you told me that you
Didn't want me around any more
But these stupid old feet
Just head for your street
Like they've done so many times before
And this stubborn old fist
On the end of my wrist
Starts knocking on your front door
I keep forgettin' you don't love me no more
I keep forgettin' you don't want me no more
I keep forgettin' about those heartbreaking nights
And those heartbreaking things that you said
Though I know in my heart
We've drifted apart,
Still I can't believe our love is dead
Though it's plain as can be
That you're finished with me
I just can't get it through my head
I keep forgettin' you don't love me no more
(You don't love me no more)
Don't love me no more
(Love me no more)
I keep forgettin' you don't love me no more
I keep forgettin' you don't love me no more
I keep forgettin' you don't want me no more
I keep forgettin' about those heartbreaking nights
And those heartbreaking things that you said
Though I know in my heart
We've drifted apart
Still I can't believe our love is dead
Though it's plain as can be
That you're finished with me
I just can't get it through my head
I keep forgettin' you don't love me no more
(No, you don't love me no more)
Don't love me no more
(Oh, you don't love me no more)
I keep forgettin' you don't love me no more
I'm going down
I'm going down
I'm going down
I'm coming up
I'm coming up
I'm coming up
I'm moving on
Moving on
I'm moving on
Moving on
Well, we're moving on

She was so beautiful she made me uptight, ah-hah-hah,

I want you to see all of the flowers
We'll shoot the breeze for hours and hours
Buttercups grow, high at the towers
What do I see, I beg your pardon

nobody loved her, it was easy to see,
that made it easy for me.
the boys never fought over her company,
that made it easy for me.
love so bright could only blind us,
how could reason hope to find us,
hiding in the milky way,
without a star to shine the way?
sand castles fell from the tears in our eyes,
that made it easier to see.
now the dream's over and i realise,

I BROUGHT HER HERE FROM ARKANSAS,
A SIMPLE COUNTRY GIRL,
TO TRY A CALIFORNIAN WAY OF LIFE.
BUT IT DIDN'T TAKE HER LONG TO LEARN
THE WAYS OF THE MODERN WORLD,
NOW SHE'S CALIFORNIA'S FASTEST MOVING WIFE.
SHE'S WORKING ON IT OVER TIME
AND SOON SHE'LL FINISH ME.
AND THE WORLD'S SADDEST MAN WILL LIVE HERE IN LOS ANGELES.
OF ALL THE THINGS SHE'S EVER DONE,
SHE'S MAKING THIS HER BEST,
I GOT THE FASTEST GROWING HEARTACHE IN THE WEST.
'TIL WE CAME HERE NO MAN HAD EVER
TOUCHED HER HEART BUT ME,
SHE'D NEVER TASTED ANY LIPS BUT MINE.
BUT I KNOW NOW, MAN HAVE SEEN
WHAT ONLY I SHOULD SEE
SINCE HER LIPS HAS TASTED CALIFORNIA WINE.
SHE'S WORKING ON IT OVER TIME
AND SOON SHE'LL FINISH ME.

I WAS SITTING AT THE BAR, TALKING TO A LADY FRIEND,
SIPPING ON A GLASS OF WINE AND MAKING TIME, - YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN.
THEN MY FAVOURITE RECORD PLAYED AND I TURNED TO WATCH THE CROWD,
BUT ONE DANCIN' LADY MADE ME SPILL MY WINE.
SHE LOOKED SO WILD AND SHE LOOKED SO FREE AND SHE MOVED SO TEMPTINGLY,
ALL THE BOYS HAD JUST ONE QUESTION ON THEIR MINDS;
CAN SHE DO IT LIKE SHE DANCES?
CAN SHE DO IT LIKE SHE DANCES?
OH, THE WAY SHE MOVE, I'D LIKE TO RENDEZVOUS HER,
FIND IF SHE CAN REALLY DO IT LIKE SHE DANCES.
(Oo, oo, oo)
AS SHE MOVED AROUND THE FLOOR I KEPT MOVIN' 'ROUND THE BAR,
ALMOST GOT INTO A FIGHT TO KEEP HER IN SIGHT.
WHEN THE DANCE WAS FINALLY THROUGH, FOUND MYSELF EXHAUSTED TOO,
AND I KNEW THAT I'D BE WONDERING ALL NIGHT:
CAN SHE DO IT LIKE SHE DANCES?
CAN SHE DO IT LIKE SHE DANCES?
OH, THE WAY SHE MOVE, I'D LIKE TO RENDEZVOUS,
AND FIND IF SHE CAN REALLY DO IT LIKE SHE DANCES.
SOME GIRLS GET OFF BY PUTTING ON A SHOW,
BUT WHEN YOU GET THEM HOME THE SHOW IS OVER.
WELL, ON THE DANCE FLOOR THERE'S NO MOVE THEY DON'T KNOW,
BUT YOU GET HER ALONE AND HER BODY TURNS TO STONE.
SO I FINISHED UP MY DRINK AND WAS HEADING FOR THE DOOR,
WHEN I SW THAT LADY GIVING ME THE EYE.
WELL, WE DANCED THE NIGHT AWAY AND I'M SEEING HER TODAY
AND I HOPE THAT I WILL FIND OUT BY ON BY:
CAN SHE DO IT LIKE SHE DANCES?
I SAID, CAN SHE DO IT LIKE SHE DANCES?
(Can she do it like she dances?)
OH, THE WAY SHE MOVE, I'D LIKE TO RENDEZVOUS,
AND FIND IF SHE CAN REALLY DO IT LIKE SHE DANCES.
CAN SHE DO IT LIKE SHE DANCES?
I WANNA KNOW IF SHE CAN DO IT,
I WANNA KNOW IF SHE CAN DO IT,
I WANNA KNOW IF SHE CAN DO IT JUST LIKE SHE DANCES.
OH, COME ON, BABY, DANCE WITH ME ONE TIME,
DANCE WITH ME TWO TIMES,
WELL, IF YOU DANCE WE CAN DO IT ALL OVER THE FLOOR!
(Can she do it like she dances?)
(Can she do it like she dances?)
(Can she do it?)

IT'S CHRISTMAS AND YOU'RE NOT HERE,
THE SNOW IS FALLING DOWN, LIKE MY TEARS.
I SEE YOUR PRESENTS BY THE TREE,
I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU'RE NOT WITH ME
ON CHRISTMAS, CHRISTMAS EVE.
IT'S CHRISTMAS WITH STARS ABOVE,
HOW MANY TIMES HAS IT BEEN SAID A TIME FOR LOVE?

I SAW YOUR FOOTPRINTS IN THE SNOW
I'D NEVER THOUGHT YOU'D REALLY GO
ON CHRISTMAS, CHRISTMAS EVE.
IT'S CHRISTMAS.
IT'S CHRISTMAS EVE.

HEY!
HEY!
HEY! HEY! HEY!
By Russ Ballard
YOU DON'T HAVE TO SAY, I SEE IT IN YOUR FACE.
WHEN TEARS FALL
THEY LEAVE A TRACE.
I TOLD MYSELF IT WON'T BE LONG,
IT'S TOO BAD
TO LOSE WHAT WE HAD.
I THOUGHT ALL LOVE SONGS WOULD GO ON AND ON.
PEOPLE TALK, YES, I THINK THEY KNOW.
I GUESS THAT IT MUST SHOW
WE'VE GONE AS FAR AS WE CAN GO.
THEY WALK BY AND THEY WHISPER LOW,
THE RUMOURS HAD TO FLOW.
WE'VE GONE AS FAR AS WE CAN GO.
I THOUGHT ALL LOVE SONGS WOULD GO ON AND ON.
PEOPLE TALK, YES, I THINK THEY KNOW.
I GUESS THAT IT MUST SHOW
WE'VE GONE AS FAR AS WE CAN GO.
THEY WALK BY AND THEY WHISPER LOW,
THE RUMOURS HAD TO FLOW.
WE'VE GONE AS FAR AS WE CAN GO.
By Lynn Williams
WELL, THE THINGS YOU SAY
AND THE THINGS YOU DO,
BABY, SOMEDAY WILL COME BACK ON YOU.
IT'S TIME TO REACH AND TURN ANOTHER PAGE.
YOU CAN SLIP AND FALL
ALL ALONG THE WAY,
NOT MUCH THOUGHT ABOUT IT THAT I CAN SAY.
EV'RYBODY KNOWS IT'S ALL IN THE NAME OF LOVE.
WELL, YOU PLAY THE GAME
BUT YOU JUST CAN'T WIN,
THEY PUT YOU AT THE BACK AND START ALL OVER AGAIN.
YOU PLACE YOUR BETS,
YOU SAY IT FITS YOU LIKE A GLOVE.
THEN YOU DREAM AWAY,
DREAM AGAIN,
UNTIL YOUR DREAM COMES TRUE NOW, MY FRIEND,
'CAUSE EV'RYBODY KNOWS IT'S ALL IN THE NAME OF LOVE.
SAID, IT'S ALL IN THE NAME, ALL IN THE NAME,
NO MATTER HOW YOU TRY, IT'S NEVER, EVER THE SAME.
IT'S ALL IN THE NAME, ALL IN THE NAME OF LOVE.
SOME SAY THE MAN IS CRAZY,
OTHERS GENTLE AS A DOVE.
BUT IT'S ALL IN THE NAME, (all in the name, all in the name, all in the name)
ALL IN THE NAME OF LOVE.
IT'S ALL IN THE NAME, ALL IN THE NAME,
NO MATTER HOW YOU TRY, IT'S NEVER, EVER THE SAME.
IT'S ALL IN THE GAME, ALL IN THE NAME OF LOVE.
SOME SAY THE MAN IS CRAZY,
OTHERS GENTLE AS A DOVE.
EV'RYBODY KNOWS IT'S ALL IN THE NAME OF LOVE.
YES, IT'S ALL IN THE NAME, ALL IN THE NAME,
NO MATTER HOW YOU TRY, IT'S NEVER, EVER THE SAME.
IT'S ALL IN THE GAME, ALL IN THE NAME OF LOVE.
YES, IT'S ALL IN THE NAME, ALL IN THE NAME,
THEY PUT YOU IN THE BACK AND START ALL OVER AGAIN.
IT'S ALL IN THE GAME, ALL IN THE NAME OF LOVE.
YES, IT'S ALL IN THE NAME, (all in the name)
ALL IN THE NAME OF LOVE.

Step lightly
You’re movin’ too fast
Take your time boy
Soon the pain will pass
In the meantime
You gotta find yourself
A love that’s going to last
Step lightly
Things will work out just fine
Nice and easy
All it takes is time
Please believe me
I wish this song was yours instead of mine
Now don’t be angry at what I’m telling you
I’d be happy if you’d sing it too
But in the meantime
Find yourself a love that’s true to you
But in the meantime
Find yourself a love that’s going to last
Now I told you
If things don’t work out fast
Gotta go now
Let’s forget the past
But in the meantime
You got to find yourself a love that’s going to last
You got to find yourself a love that’s going to last
You got to find yourself a love that’s going to last
You got to find a love that’s going to last
If I had the wings of an eagle
Over these broken dreams I will fly
If I could be shot like an arrow
Straight to you, in your arms I would lie
Don't you know I love you?
Don't you know I love you so?
If I had the strength of a lion
There'd be no one to keep us apart
If I was to crack just like thunder
I would shout what I feel in my heart
Don't you know I love you?
Don't you know I need you so?
Need you so much
The melody's coming in clear, so clear
And with your touch the music keeps going around
And around in my ears, alright
Don't you know I love you?
Don't you know I need you so?
If I had to live life without you
I'd be lost like a ship in the night
Your love never gave me no warning
Like a bird I was shot down in flight
Don't you know I love you?
Don't you know I love you so?
Don't you know I love you?
Don't you know I need you so? Need you so
Don't you know I love you?
Don't you know I love you so?
Don't you know I love you?
Don't you know I need you so? Need you so
Don't you know I love you?
Don't you know I love you so?
No man is an island who has been in love
Bringing understanding every push and shove
Just as fundamental as the stars above
It is benifiting every hand in glove
And you tell me it's a cold day in hell when you surrender
For love and a chance to remember
What we have to hold is more silver and gold
When I walk with you
When I talk with you
Everything will be fine
When I walk with you
When I talk with you
Everything will be fine
Will be fine
It's coincidental we have met before
Let this be the time and place that we explore
With no hesitation knocking at that door
Open up your heart and love forever more
And I tell you it's a cold day in hell but we remember
That song that starts out love me tender
And that king of hearts
When I walk with you
When I talk with you
Everything will be fine
When I walk with you
When I talk with you
Everything will be fine
Will be fine
Picking up the picture of love in pain
I don't have time if what time remains
What I have just tried to explain flew by you
What can I do with a heart of steel
I would impart what I've come to feel
Love is the answer and It is real
I'll always be there beside you
When I walk with you
When I talk with you
Everything will be fine
When I walk with you
When I talk with you
Everything will be fine
Will be fine
When I walk with you
When I talk with you
Everything will be fine
When I walk with you
When I talk with you
Everything will be fine
HAVE YOU EVER WATCHED A MOONBEAM
-"AND AMBER?"
AS IT SLITHER CROSS YOUR WINDOW PANE?
-"I THINK SHE WILL REMEMBER YOU, GO! GO!."
OR STRUGGLE WITH A BIT OF RAIN?
OR DANCE ABOUT THE WEATHERVANE?
-"THE NETHERWORLD, LIKE THE HUMAN WORLD,
THINKS IT TAKES CARE OF ITSELF....
OR SETTLE ON A MORNING TRAIN
AND IT PROBABLY DOES."
AND WONDER WHERE THE TRAIN'S BEEN.
AH -
AH -
I'm sure to fall, fall in love
I'm sure to fall in love with you
You are so sweet and we are so near

For lovin' you is the natural thing to do
I want you for the rest of my life
So hold me tight, let tonight be the night

For lovin' you is the natural thing to do
I want you for the rest of my life
So hold me tight, let tonight be the night
Darlin', don't ever let me go
Oh, lovin' you is the natural thing to do
I want you for the rest of my life
One step forward and two steps back
The crowd will roar and bones will crack
And you'll be Samba to me
And by the calm of the sea
You gave your promise to me
We go hand in hand
Backing up the band
Put things on the sand
Understand I love you
It's a rock 'n tumble, Never give up
You've got the stuff
We've got enough
We are in love
Take two steps forward and two steps back
Two steps back
It's a rock 'n tumble, Never give up
You've got the stuff
We've got enough
We are in love
Hollywood is waltzin'
Doin' that double talkin'
Anything they could do
To make it through another L.A. night
And can you imagine
All those girls are strollin'
All the boys are holdin'
They're doin' their best to
Make it through another L.A. night
In a picture show life
In their own little world
In their own little space
They can be who they want to
In their own little place
Hollywood is reelin'
With the double meanin'
Anything they could say to
Make it through another L.A. night
And can you imagine
All the girls are smilin'
All the boys are tryin'
Anything they can take to
Put away another L.A. night
In a picture show life
They win and they lose
And they pick and they choose
They've been dancin' for so long
What else can they do?
Hollywood is rockin'
Doin' the double talkin'
Anything they can do
To make it through another L.A. night
And can you imagine
All those girls are strollin'
All those boys are holdin'
They're doing their best to
Make it through another L.A. night
In a picture show life
In their own little world
In their own little space
They can be who they want to
In their own little place
They can be who they want to
In their own little place
Ever since I met you, baby
I've been acting kinda strange
I wake up in the morning, then without a warning
All I do is scream your name, yeah
Every time I look inside me
I see the man that I've become
You make me wanna holler and jump right out my collar
You've got me on the run, yeah
Oo-wee, babe, oo-wee, yeah
Friends don't recognize me, they say you hypnotize me
Ooh, what you done to me, babe?
You drive me out of my sunsets, oo-wee
She look just like the new Jean Harlow
With sultry lips and long blonde hair
They say, she came from Haites or was it the Euphrates
That brought my lady here, yeah?
Oo-wee, babe, oo-wee, yeah
Friends don't understand me, they say you underhand me
Ooh, what you done to me, babe?
You drive me out of my senses, oo-wee, yeah
Take it, John
It's my doctor playing
When I walk into her parlor
It's like the spider and the fly
In the darkness, she surrounds me
And weaves her web around me
And locks me up inside, yeah
She look just like the new Jean Harlow
With sultry lips and long blonde hair
They say, she came from Haites or was it the Euphrates
That brought my lady here, uh, uh?
Oo-wee, babe, oo-wee, yeah
Friends don't understand me, they say you underhand me
Ooh, what you done to me, babe?
You drive me out of my senses, oo-wee, yeah
Oo-wee, babe
(Oo-wee)
Oo-wee, babe
(Oo-wee)
Oo-wee, babe
(Oo-wee)
Oo-wee, babe
People like you and I always hate one another
Until there's nothing left to hate no more
You and I will always hear different drummers
You just go your way, I'll go mine
You and I always take from each other
Until there's nothing left to give no more
You and I are just like lightning and thunder
We never let the sun just shine
I need some old time relovin'
You know I need it so bad
Gimme some old time relovin'
Just like my old daddy always had
You and I will always hear different drummers
You just go your way, I'll go mine
I need some old time relovin'
You know I need it so bad
Gimme some old time relovin'
Just like my old daddy said he had
I need some old time relovin'
You know I need it so bad
Gimme some old time relovin'
Just like my old daddy always had
Just like my old mummy always had
Just like my old sister said she had
Groovy
Ah, there's music in the streets and there's music in the air
A little ol' soul beat and there's dancin' everywhere
I would tell the whole world, tell 'em if I could
To add a little song into each life, oh, it's a finger snappin' good
Oh, oh
Ah, pardon me, boys, but could you use it?
We're gonna make a little music
You got soul, now don'tcha lose it
We're gonna make a little music
Every thing's gonna be mellow
We gon' just a singin' occapella
Every thing's gonna be mellow
We gon' just a singin' occapella
Oh, oh, hey
Oh, there's dancin' in the streets and there's music in the air
A little ol' soul beat and there's dancin' everywhere
I would tell the whole world, tell 'em if I could
To add a little song into each life, you know it's finger poppin' good
Oh, oh
Ah, pardon me, boys, but could you use it?
We're gonna make a little music
You got soul, now don'tcha lose it
We're gonna make a little music
Every thing's gonna be mellow
We gon' just a singin' occapella
Every thing's gonna be mellow

I said, every thing's gonna be mellow
Everybody's singin' occapella

Everybody's singin' occapella
I was a sailor first, I sailed the sea
Then I got a job, in a factory
Played Butlin's Camp with my friend Rory
It was good for him, it was great for me
Liverpool I left you, said goodbye to Madryn Street
I always followed my heart, and I never missed a beat
Destiny was calling, I just couldn't stick around
Liverpool I left you but I never let you down
Went to Hamburg, the red lights were on
With George and Paul, and my friend John
We rocked all night, we all looked tough
We didn't have much but we had enough
Liverpool I left you, said goodbye to Madryn Street
I always followed my heart, and I never missed a beat
Destiny was calling, I just couldn't stick around
Liverpool I left you but I never let you down
In the U.S.A. when we played Shea
We were number one and it was fun
When I look back, it sure was cool
For those four boys from Liverpool
Liverpool I left you, said goodbye to Admiral Grove
I always followed my heart, so I took it on the road
Destiny was calling, I just couldn't stick around
Liverpool I left you but I never let you down
Hey, hey, baby, I wanna know
If you'll be my girl
Hey, hey, baby, I wanna know
If you'll be my girl
When I saw you walking down the street
I said, "That's the kind of girl I just like to meet"
She's so pretty, Lord, she's so fine
I'm gonna make her mine, mine
I said, "Hey, hey, baby, I wanna know
If you'll be my girl"
When you turned and walked away
That's when I wanna say
"Come on, baby, give me a whirl
I wanna know if you'll be my girl"
I said, "Hey, hey, baby, I wanna know
If you'll be my girl"
When you turned and walked away
That's when I wanna say
"Come on, baby, give me a whirl
I wanna know if you'll be my girl"
I said, "Hey, hey, baby
(Hey, baby)
I wanna know if you'll be my girl"
(All right)
Be my girl
(Let me hear it one time, boys)
Hey, hey, baby, I wanna know
If you'll be my girl
Hey, hey, baby, I wanna know
If you'll be my girl
Lives on a farm, got plenty of charm, beep, beep
He's got no cows but he's sure got a whole lotta sheep
And brand new wife and a family
And when he comes to town I wonder if he'll play with me
Laying in bed, watching TV, cookie
With his mama by his side, she's Japanese
They scream and they cried, now they're free
And when he comes to town, I know he's gonna play with me
He's a long-haired, cross-legged guitar picker, um um
With his long-legged lady in the garden picking daisies for his soup
A forty acre house he doesn't see
'Cause he's always in town playing for you with me
I play guitar, A, D, E, I don't play bass
'Cause that's too hard for me, I play the piano if it's in C
And when I go to town I wanna see all three
And when I go to town I wanna see all three
People like you see it comin' a mile off
Find it hard stayin' in line
It's not that no one really hears you
Just that nobody really cares
Like someone who's just seen the light
Like someone looking for a fight
Same thing ev'ry day, being foolish, being asked to lose your seat
Don't look to me askin' to be helped up to your feet
Don't you know you're a dead giveaway?
You're a dead giveaway
You're a dead giveaway
You're a dead giveaway
You're a dead giveaway, dead giveaway
Don't look to me 'cause I know your game
Nonsense merchant, hall of fame
Take it or leave it, you're a blind drunk
And if you ain't that, you're far too stoned
'Cause you're a dead giveaway
Smell a rat in ev'rything you do
Well, you're a dead giveaway
Asked to leave ev'rywhere you go
People say you're a dead giveaway
Dead giveaway
Dead giveaway
Dead giveaway
Somebody knockin' at the door
You're a dead giveaway
I've seen you happy all the time
Don't live lonely life
Dead giveaway
Well, it's a dead giveaway
You're a dead giveaway
Dead giveaway
Nobody really cares
Dead giveaway
Dead giveaway
Dead giveaway
Pack up all my cares and woes
Here I go, singing low
Bye, bye, blackbird
Where somebody waits for me
Sugar is sweet, so is she
Bye, bye, blackbird
No one here can love and understand me
Oh, what hard luck stories they all hand me
Make my bed and light the light
I'll arrive late tonight
Blackbird, bye, bye
Pack up all my cares and woes
Here I go, singing low
Bye, bye, blackbird
Where somebody waits for me
Sugar is sweet, so is she
Bye, bye, bye, bye, blackbird
I said, no one here can love and understand me
Oh, what hard luck stories they all hand me
So, make my bed and light the light
I'll arrive late tonight
Blackbird, bye, bye
Make my bed and light the light
I'll arrive late tonight
Blackbird, I said blackbird
I said blackbird
I'm just a bad boy
All dressed up in fancy clothes
I'm taking the trouble
To blow my bubbles away
Bad boy
Life is just a bowl of cherries
I'm taking the trouble
To turn my night into day
The hot blazing sun
Won't hurt my head
'Cause you'll always find me
Right there in the shade
I can see all the folks
They're laughing at me
'Cause I'm just a naturally, crazy, lazy
Bad boy
Life is just a bowl of cherries
I'm taking the trouble
To turn my night into day
The hot blazing sun
Won't hurt my head
'Cause you'll always find me
Right there in the shade
I can see all you folks
You're laughing at me
'Cause I'm just a naturally, crazy, lazy
Bad boy
All dressed up in these fancy clothes
And I'm taking the trouble
To blow my bubbles away
Only you can make this world seem right.
Only you can make the darkness bright.
Only you and you alone can thrill me like you do.
And fill my heart with love for only you.
Only you can make this change in me.
For it's true
you are my destiny.
When you hold my hand I understand
The magic that you do
you're my dream come true
My one and only you.
Only you can make this world seem right
. . .
Only you can make this change in me
. . .
Only you
only you
(Starkey/Hudson/Grakal/Dudas)
Light is fading darkness coming soon
Feeling lonely in this empty room
Something's been going wrong
I'm barely holding on
And it's true. All it takes is
(Chorus)
One girl for just one minute
One world but you're not in it
One girl. All it takes is one.
Lately I find I'm feeling insecure
Is it just me I'm not really sure
Something's been going on
I know it won't be long
And it's true. All it takes is
(to Chorus)
It's getting very late
Why did she go away
I needed her to stay
Look at the state I'm in
Something's been going on
How could I have been so wrong
And it's true. All it takes is
You girl for just one minute
My world but you're not in it
life goes on
no one gets rehearsal
life goes on
through everyday reversal
with every dawn everyday is full of chances
to find some good before it's gone
you'll never know which way a day is gonna take you
there's always some surprise that comes along to shake you
a simple rule of thumb that's often been neglected
is take life as it comes expecting unexpected
you'll never see exactly where the road will lead you
and when it comes to love you gamble when you need to
you'll maybe break your heart on one unlucky throw
but then again, you'll never know
who knows why anything can happen
a cloudy sky can suddenly break open
before your eyes there's the smiling face of summer chasing all the rain away
you'll never know which way a day is gonna take you
there's always some surprise that comes along to shake you
a simple rule of thumb that's often been neglected
is take life as it comes expecting unexpected
you'll never see exactly where the road will lead you
and when it comes to love you gamble when you need to
you'll maybe break your heart on one unlucky throw
but then again, you'll never know
a simple rule of thumb that's often been neglected
is take life as it comes expecting unexpected
i never saw exactly where the road would lead me
one day i woke to find somebody needs me
i thought *i'd take at luck *as far as it would go
In the town where I was born
Lived a man who sailed to sea
And he told us of his life
In the land of submarines
So we sailed on to the sun
Till we found a sea of green
And we lived beneath the waves
In our yellow submarine
We all live in a yellow submarine
Yellow submarine, yellow submarine
We all live in a yellow submarine
Yellow submarine, yellow submarine
And our friends are all aboard
Many more of them live next door
And the band begins to play
We all live in a yellow submarine
Yellow submarine, yellow submarine
We all live in a yellow submarine
Yellow submarine, yellow submarine
{Full speed ahead Mr. Boatswain, full speed ahead
Full speed ahead it is, Sgt.
Cut the cable, drop the cable
Aye, aye, Sir, aye, aye
Captain, captain}
As we live a life of ease
Every one of us has all we need
(One of us, has all we need)
Sky of blue and sea of green
(Sky of blue, sea of green)
In our yellow submarine
(In our yellow, submarine, aha)
We all live in a yellow submarine
A yellow submarine, yellow submarine
We all live in a yellow submarine
A yellow submarine, yellow submarine
We all live in a yellow submarine
Yellow submarine, yellow submarine
We all live in a yellow submarine
Some days are diamonds, some days are stone
Some days we need, to leave it alone
But when we look back, at how far we've come
We know we're in it, for the long run
The worst it ever was was wonderful
Better than I ever dreamed
The worst it ever was was wonderful
Cause it's always been you and me
And we made it through
The way we always do
Cause for me and you
The worst it ever was was wonderful
Each time I see you, I feel the same
It always gets better, the more we can change
No expectations, no room for doubt
There's never been trouble, we can't work out
The worst it ever was was wonderful
Better than I ever dreamed
The worst it ever was was wonderful
Cause it's always been you and me
And we made it through
The way we always do
Cause for me and you
The worst it ever was was wonderful
Each time I see you, I feel the same
It always gets better, the more we can change
No expectations, no room for doubt
There's never been trouble, we can't work out
The worst it ever was was wonderful
Better than I ever dreamed
The worst it ever was was wonderful
Cause it's always been you and me
And we made it through
The way we always do
Cause for me and you
Sleigh bells ring, are you list'nin?
In the lane, snow is glist'nin'
A beautiful sight, we're happy tonight
Walkin' in a winter wonderland
Gone away is the blue bird, (blue bird)
Here to stay is a new bird, (new bird)
He sings a love song, (a ha) as we go along (a ha)
Walkin' in a winter wonderland
In the meadow we can build a snowman, (snowman)
Then pretend that he is parson brown
He'll say, "are you married?" we'll say, "no man! (no man)
But you can do the job when you're in town."
Later on, we'll conspire
As we dream by the fire (fire fire)
To face unafraid, (aha) the plans that we made (a ha)
Walkin' in a winter wonderland
In the meadow we can build a snowman, (snowman)
Then pretend that he is parson brown
He'll say, "are you married?" we'll say, "no man! (no man)
But you can do the job when you're in town."
Later on, (later on) we'll conspire (we'll conspire)
As we dream by the fire (as we're sittin' dreaming by the fire)
To face unafraid, (aha) the plans that we made (a ha)
Walkin' in a winter wonderland, (ah ah ah ah)
Walkin' in a winter wonderland, (winter wonderland)
Walkin' in a winter wonderland, (walkin' in a)
Walkin' in a winter wonderland
I was walkin'
I was walkin'
I was winter wonderland due last night
We were walkin
We were talkin'
We were winter wonderland due last night. (yeah)
Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas to you
Why do you whisper, green grass?
Why tell the trees what ain't so?
Whispering grass, the trees
Don't have to know, no, no
Why tell them all your secrets?
Who kissed there long ago?
Whispering grass, the trees
Don't need to know
Don't you tell it to the breeze
'Cause they will tell the birds and bees
And everyone will know
Because you told the blabbering trees
Yes, you told them once before
It's no secret any more
Why tell them all the old things?
They're buried under the snow
Whispering grass, don't tell the trees
'Cause the trees don't need to know
Why tell them all the old things?
They're buried under the snow
Whispering grass, don't tell the trees
When the world is coming down on you
And your back's against the wall
Change the glass that you've been looking through
It's only half full after all
If you feel like giving up
If you feel you've had enough
Let it go, don't you know
You can come and kick the bottom out
Stomp your feet scream and shout
Let it go, let it go
It's never quite as bad as you think it is
Çause every bad day turns around
Forgive yourself for all the things you did
The vertical man don't lay down
If you feel like giving up
If you feel you've had enough
Let it go, don't you know
Come on - kick the bottom out
Stomp your feet scream and shout
Let it go, let it go
And when the sun comes shining through for you
You'll discover even rainbows have the blues
Yes I know it's not news to you
Am I getting through to you
If you feel like giving up
Don't you know life is tough
Let it go, Let it Go
I can feel your breath on my face
But I still want to turn on the light
Is it really you here with me tonight?
Is it really you here with me tonight?
I can't believe it, it feels so right
I keep on pinching myself
But I keep on holding you tight
Is it really you here with me tonight?
When I wake up in the morning
It sure gonna seem like a dream
There's only one chance, I know this is going on
That's when I can see you lying next to me
Is it really you here with me tonight?
I can't believe it feels so right
I can feel your breath on my face
But I still want to turn on the light
Is it really you here?
Is it really you here?
Is it really you here with me tonight?
Is it really you here with me tonight?
Now, listen, sugar
Is it really you here with me tonight?
Is it really you here with me tonight?
Is it really you here with me tonight?
"Bon soir!"
"Ooh, some heavies back here tonight, my God!"
"I've known Ringo for quite a while and I'm glad to see him doing something like this
tonight 'cause it's really serious."
"Ringo Starr & The All Starr Band!"
"Joe Walsh!"
"Nils Lofgren!"
"Dave Edmunds!"
"Todd Rundgren!"
"Burton Cummings!"
"Timothy B. Schmit!"
"Tim Cappello!"
"And Zak Starkey!"
"This is Ringo Starr, Ladies and Gentlemen!"
"Good evening, Montreux!"
"I love your T-shirt!...Any minute now....
Oh, it's really great to be here at the Montreux Jazz Festival, er..., you know,
I'm sure you all recognise me as an old jazz player."
Tonight's the Christmas dance in London town
The lights are up, the snow is falling down
Like every year I catch your eye across the floor
But too afraid to do much more
At the Christmas dance
That magic time of year when dreams come true
Yeah, the Christmas dance
The only dance I wanna dance is you
The music's playing, hearts are swaying to the rhythm of romance
At the Christmas dance
I combed my hair and straightened out my tie
This year I'm gonna ask you do or die
And I'll need every ounce of courage I can find
Feet don't fail me, love be kind
At the Christmas dance
That magic time of year when dreams come true
The Christmas dance
The only dance I wanna dance is you
The music's playing, hearts are swaying to the rhythm of romance
At the Christmas dance
No more searching love at last
(No more searching love at last)
No more ghosts of Christmas past
(No more ghosts of Christmas past)
Under the mistletoe we kissed and danced so slow
And when our children ask the meaning of romance
(Christmas is not the romance)
It's the Christmas dance
That magic time of year when dreams come true
At the Christmas dance
The only dance I wanna dance is you
The music's playing, hearts are swaying to the rhythm of romance
At the Christmas dance
Oh, the Christmas dance
Yeah, the Christmas dance
Oh, the Christmas dance
Yeah, the Christmas dance, yeah
Merry Christmas!
Yeah, the Christmas dance, yeah
Merry Christmas! Yeah
Merry Christmas! Yes! Yeah! Yeah!
Everybody dance
Sneaking Sally through the alley
Sneaking Sally through the alley
Sneaking Sally through the alley
Tryin' to keep her from sight
Sneaking Sally through the alley
My baby caught me last night
I said, "I can't find nothing wrong with being friends"
'Cause sometimes she lets me use her car
She said, "If you can't find nothing wrong in your mind
I know you've gone too far"
Sneaking Sally through the alley
Tryin' to get away clean
(Tryin' to get away)
Sneaking Sally through the alley
My baby saw the whole scene
So I began to try and explain
But it just wasn't, wasn't much of a thought
Now I should find me somebody new
(Somebody new)
'Cause this man has been caught
She caught me sneaking with Sally through the alley
(Sneaking with Sally)
Tryin' to get away clean
Sneaking with Sally through the alley
(Sneaking with Sally)
I know you know what I mean
(What I mean, what I mean)
Tryin' to get away
Tryin' to get away
Tryin' to get away
Sneaking Sally through the alley
Sneaking Sally through the alley
I talk double talk
Anything's trouble talk
Catching myself in lies
Mama, just look at me
Thinking about killing me
I saw it in her eyes
Oh, oh, oh
She caught me sneaking with sally through the alley
Tryin' to keep her from sight
I was sneaking with Sally through that alley
(Sneaking with Sally)
My baby caught me last night
Well, I was sneaking sally through the alley
Tryin' to get away clean
You know, sneaking with Sally without knowing
(Sneaking with Sally)
My baby saw the whole scene
Oh, oh, oh
Give me all the time you have
Won't be satisfied
I'm happy when you hold my hand
Still not satisfied
And when you tell me it's time to go
I'll ask you for a minute more
And if you never leave my side
I won't be satisfied
If I only have one day with you
Won't be satisfied
Even with a year or two
Still not satisfied
I'm not asking for to much
Not of smile or a touch
And if you never leave my side
I won't be satisfied, I'm not satisfied
I spend my lifetime looking
For someone like you
And when you lay next to me
You made a dream come true
I spend my lifetime looking
For someone like you
And when you lay next to me
You made a dream come true
Here in the morning light
Yes, I'm satisfied
If I'm never out of your sight
I am satisfied
I only want to hear your smile
I want forever not just a while
And if you never leave my side
I'll be satisfied
(Oh, satisfied)
Yes, satisfied
(Oh, satisfied)
Hum, satisfied
(Oh, satisfied)
I'll be satisfied
(Oh, satisfied)
Oh, oh, oh, oh, yeah
Oh, oh, oh, oh, yeah
Oh, oh, oh, oh, yeah
Outside there's a runaway
The lights go down, the world goes rushing in
Neon light takes the light of day
Stars like dust start falling
Inside there's a loneliness
The demon tries to charm you with his smile
No time to dream or rest
In the caves of steel, faces are changing
They're the runaways, they're the runaways
Children of the damned, they're the runaways
Running for their life, faster than they can
They're the runaways
On the street the traffic dies
The break of day, it always comes too soon
Running out of reasons why
All your life you blamed it on the moon
Look out for the danger signs
You're stealing time but you know
You'll never win another border line
In the caves of steel, faces are changing
They're the runaways, children of the night
They're the runaways, running for your life
Faster than you can, they're the runaways
Run, run, runaways
Nightmares chase the dreams away
The cold night reflects the way you feel
It's just another town
It's just one more night to kill
All the streets are empty now
Like the wolf, you walk this night alone
And in some other world
In the caves of steel, faces are changing
They're the runaways, they're the runaways
They're the runaways, they're they runaways
Children of the night, they're the runaways
Run, run, run, run away, running for your life
Faster than you can
They're the runaways, run, run, run, run away
Children of the damned, they're the runaways
They're the runaways, running for your life
Faster than they can, they're the runaways
Run, run, runaways
They're the runaways, they're the runaways
Children of the night, they're the runaways
They're the runaways, running for their life
Faster than they can, they're the runaways
Long ago, far away
Life was clear
Close your eyes
Remember, is a place from long ago
Remember, filled with everything you know
Remember, when you're sad and feelin' down
Remember, turn around
Remember, life is just a memory
Remember, close your eyes and you can see
Remember, think of all that life can be
Remember
Dream, love is only in a dream, remember
Remember, life is never as it seems, dream
Dream, love is only in a dream, remember
Remember, life is never as it seems, dream
Long ago, far away
Life was clear
Every time I see your face
It reminds me of the places
We used to go.
But all I've got is a photograph
And I realise you're not coming back
Any more.
I thought I'd make it
The day you went away
But I can't make it
Till you come home again to stay.
I can't get used to living in
And my heart is broke
My tears are cried for you.
I want you here to have and hold
As the years go by and we grow old
And grey.
Now you're expecting me
To live without you.
But that's not something
That I'm looking forward to.
I can't get used to living in . . .
Last night I had a peace dream
You know how real dreams can be
The world was a better place
For you and me can't you see?
No need for war no more
Better things we're fighting for
No more hunger no more pain
I hope I have that dream again
Can you imagine, all of this coming true?
It's really up to all of us to do
Just like John Lennon said in Amsterdam
Conk his bed
One day the world will wake up to see
The reality
Last night I had a peace dream
You know how real dreams can be
The world was a better place
For you and me, can't you see?
(You've got to imagine)
No need for war no more
(Try to imagine)
Better things we're fighting for
No more hunger, no more pain
I hope that dream comes true someday
So try to imagine if we give peace a chance
All the world could be living in harmony
One day our dream could be reality, reality
Last night I had a peace dream
You know how real dreams can be
The world was a better place
For you and me
(You've got to imagine)
No need for war no more
(Try to imagine)
Better things we're fighting for
No more hunger, no more pain
I phoned up my doctor
To see what's the matter
He said, "Come on over"
I said, "Do I have to?"
My knees started shaking
My wrists started aching
When my doctor said to me
Oh my my, oh my my
You can boogie, you can slide
Oh my my, oh my my
You can boogie if you try
Oh my my, oh my my
It's guaranteed to keep you alive
The head nurse
She blew it just like a tornado
When they started dancing
I jumped off the table
My lips started healing
And as I was leaving
This is what they said to me
Yeah, oh my my, oh my my
You can boogie, you can slide
Oh my my, oh my my
You can boogie, you can fly
Oh my my, oh my my
It's guaranteed to keep you alive
Now if you should slow down
And you're feeling low down
Don't call up your doctor
Just grab you a partner
I've got your prescription
It's what you've been missing
That boogie woogie remedy
Hey, oh my my, oh my my
You can boogie, you can slide
Oh my my, oh my my
We can boogie till we die
Oh my my, oh my my
It's guaranteed to keep you alive
Hey, oh my my, oh my my
You can boogie, you can slide
Oh my my, oh my my
We can boogie, we can fly
Oh my my, oh my my
Can you boogie, can you fly?
Oh my my, oh my my
We can boogie, we can fly
Oh my my, oh my my
I'd like to be under the sea
In an octopus's garden in the shade
He'd let us in, knows where we've been
In his octopus's garden in the shade
I'd ask my friends to come and see
An octopus's garden with me
I'd like to be under the sea
In an octopus's garden in the shade
We would be warm below the storm
In our little hideaway beneath the waves
Restin' our head on the sea bed
In an octopus's garden near a cave
We would sing and dance around
Because we know we can't be found
I'd like to be under the sea
In an octopus's garden in the shade
We would shout and swim about
The coral that lies beneath the waves
Lies beneath the ocean waves
Oh, what joy, for every girl and boy
Knowing we're happy and we're safe
Happy and we're safe
We would be so happy you and me
No one there to tell us what to do
I'd like to be under the sea
In an octopus's garden with you
In an octopus's garden with you
A woman that I know just came from Colombia.
She smiled because I did not understand.
Then she held out some marijuana, uh huh.
She said it was the finest in the land.
And I said, "No no no no, I don't smoke it no more.
I'm tired of waking up on the floor.
No thank you, please, it only makes me sneeze.
And then it makes it hard to find the door."
A man I know just came to me from Tennessee, Oh.
He smiled because I did not understand.
Then he held out some moonshine whiskey, oh ho!
He said it was the finest in the land.
And I said, "No no no no, I don't drink it no more.
I'm tired of waking up on the floor.
No thank you, please, it only makes me sneeze.
And then it makes it hard to find the door."
A woman that I know just came from Majorca, Spain,
She smiled because I did not understand.
Then she held out a 10 pound bag of cocaine.
She said it was the finest in the land.
And I said, "No no no no, I don't no more.
I'm tired of waking up on the floor.
No thank you, please, it only makes me sneeze.
We were young, it was fun
And we couldn't lose
Times were right, overnight
We were headline news
Crazy days and reckless nights
Limousines and bright spotlights
We were brothers through it all
And your song will play on without you
And this world won't forget about you
Every part of you was in your song
Now we will carry on
Never without you
Within you, without you
Here comes the song, it's about you
Here today, not alone
With my memories
Life is strange, how things change
It's reality
You played a beautiful melody
That keeps on haunting me
I can always feel you by my side
And your song will play on without you
And this world won't forget about you
Every part of you was in your song
Now we will carry on
Never without you
Within you, without you
Here comes the song, it's about you
I know all things must pass
And only love will last
I'll always love the memory of you and me
Take it away Eric
And your song will play on without you
And this world won't forget about you
Every part of you was in your song
Now we will carry on
Never without you
Within you, without you
We're never without you
Within you, without you
We're never without you
We're never without you
Within you, without you
Is it's a sin to live without
To look within?
I didn't know which way to turn
She had to go and so I've learned
And now forever and a day
I will wait
In that Show-Me-State
Yes, Virginia there?s a world to see
But without you where can it be?
I'm goin? to Kansas City but that?s just me
On a Greyhound bus from Tennessee
No need to worry, I ain't in no hurry
Missouri loves company
Down this country lane
I leave behind a little pain
And as I cross the county line
And every state's in my mind
I've got nothin? to lose
Like St. Louis
I've got the blues
Yes, Virginia there's a world to see
But without you where can it be?
I'm goin' to Kansas City but that?s just me
On a Greyhound bus from Tennessee
No need to worry, I ain't in no hurry
Missouri loves company
Minneapolis through Saint Paul
The pain's the same and that ain't all
I'm headin' north where my lover calls
I'm not goin' down like Niagara Falls
I've got to do what's best for me
That's findin' you
I?II travel on near or far
?Til I find the place you are
Yes, Virginia there's a world to see
But without you where can it be?
I'm goin' to Kansas City but that's just me
All the way from Graceland Tennessee
There's no need to worry, I ain't in no hurry
(Starkey/Hudson/Grakal/Dudas)
What's right, who's wrong, everybody take sides
My God, your God, God it's such a fine line
E-mail, jump bail, man becomes a female
War vet dragnet take another percocet
Somewhere in between
There's a world you've never seen
Perhaps it's just a dream
But it's so real to me
(Chorus)
Livin' in a mindfield, We're walking on thin ice
Livin' in a mindfield, There's no time to think twice
Only we can make it better
Let's all get well together
Rock stars, pop stars lifing in an ant farm
Smooth talkin', cool walkin', drownin' in your own charm
Mystic medicine, Maharishi let us in
Way out, weigh in, where the hell have you been
Somewhere in my dream
There's a twilight in between
A place I've been but never seen
And it's so real to me
(to Chorus)
Everything you do or say
Comes with a price that you must pay
I didn't know that yesterday
Good junk, bad funk, I can see through you
Peace, love, everyone be your own Guru
Mindfield, We're walking on thin ice
Livin' in a mindfield, There's no time to think twice
Your pretty brown eyes, your wavy hair
I won't go home no more 'cause you're not there
I'm telling you now like I told you before
I'm so in love with you, don't leave me no more
Lipstick traces on a cigarette
Every memory lingers with me yet
I got it bad like I told you before
I'm so in love with you don't leave me no more
(Won't you come on home?)
Won't you come on home?
(Won't you come back home?)
Won't you come back home?
I'm crazy 'bout you, can't live without you
Won't you come back home?
I'm telling you now like I told you before
I'm so in love with you, don't leave me no more
(Won't you come on home?)
Won't you come on home?
(Won't you come back home?)
Won't you come back home?
I'm crazy 'bout you, can't live without you
Won't you come back home?
Lipstick traces on a cigarette
Every memory lingers with me yet
I'm telling you now like I told you before
I'm so in love with you, so don't leave me no more
Don't leave me no more
(Leave me no more)
Don't leave me no more
(Leave me no more)
Don't leave me no more
(Leave me no more)
Don't leave me no more
(Leave me no more)
Don't leave me no more
Cross over the border, we'll take a sailin' ship
Into the night, a sea without horizons
We'll have each others love to hold us tight
On a starless night
Oh Las Brisas, means the breeze will carry us
Like two birds in flight on a starless night
Oh penumbra, means the sunset that I see
Within your smile is the dawn of your eyes
Yo te amo, means I love you like
I've never loved before
Dreams come true, dear when I take you
In my arms forever more, forever more
Oh Las Brisas, means the breeze will carry us
Like two birds in flight on a starless night
Oh penumbra, means the sunset that I see
Within your smile is the dawn of your eyes
Penumbra, means the sunset that I see
Within your smile is the dawn of your eyes
Yo te amo, means I love you like I've never
Lady Gaye
I know you'll never, ever change your way
There is no one who's been through more than you
And still come through with love to spare
You really care, you lovely lady, you
Lady Gaye
You're really not the woman you portray
Well, I don't mean that disrespectfully
For you have always shared your home
With all who've come to love you like I do
To love you like I do
It's time that all you people turned to look
And take a leaf out of this lady's book
Lady Gaye
When morning comes there's nothing left to say
But you have shown me what life's all about
It's time to shout your praises 'round
They'll never knock you down
We love you, Lady Gaye
Well, it's time to shout our praises 'round
They'll never knock you down
We love you, Lady Gaye
We love you, Lady Gaye
We love you, Lady Gaye
(Love you)
We love you, Lady Gaye
(Love you)
We love you, Lady Gaye
(Love you)
We love you, Lady Gaye
(Love you)
I love, I love, I love, I love, I love you
I love, I love, I love, I love, I love you
I love, I love, I love, I love, I love you
(Starkey/Hudson/Grakal/Dudas)
I live my life, It's only right
'Cause I can't live your life for you
I'm satisfied, Feeling high
'Cause I found out just what to do
So you can bet I never let the things I get
Get the best of me
When I get blue here's what I do and so can you
It's no mystery when you sing
(Chorus)
LA LA DE DA Like que sera sera
whatever LA DE DA
All you gotta say is LA DE DA
You don't need to cry, No reason why
Is ever good enough for me
We can take a walk, Just laugh and talk
Whatever's going to be will be
And when it rains I don't complain I'm like a train
I just keep rolling on
Sometimes you lose you blow a fuse you're not immune
To what's been going on - sing along
(to Chorus)
And when you're down it can be found turn it around
You know the remedy
Just cut some slack and don't look back
'Cause it's a fact it will be OK when you say
(to Chorus)
Just like Doris Day sad Que Sera
LA LA DE DA, LA LA DE DA, LA LA DE DA
All you gotta say is LA DE DA
ALl I gotta say is, All we gotta say is
You can climb a mountain, you can swim the sea
You can jump into the fire, but you'll never be free
You can shake me up, or I can break you down
Oh, oh, oh
We can make each other happy
Oh, we can make each other happy
We can make each other happy
Oh, we can make each other happy
You can climb a mountain, you can swim the sea
You can jump into the fire, but you'll never be free
You can shake me up, or I can break you down
Oh, oh, oh
We can make each other happy
Oh, we can make each other happy
We can make each other happy
Oh, we can make each other happy, oh
You can climb a mountain, you can swim the sea
You can jump into the fire, but you'll never be free
You can shake me up, or I can break you down
Oh, oh, oh
We can make each other happy
We can make each other happy
It don't come easy
You know it don't come easy
It don't come easy
You know it don't come easy
Got to pay your dues if you wanna sing the blues
And you know it don't come easy
You don't have to shout or leap about
You can even play them easy
Open up your heart, let's come together
Use a little love and we will make it work out better
I don't ask for much, I only want your trust
And you know it don't come easy
And this love of mine keeps growing all the time
And you know it don't come easy
Peace, remember peace is how we make it
Here within your reach if you're big enough to take it
Got to pay your dues if you wanna sing the blues
And you know it don't come easy
You don't have to shout or leap about
You can even play them easy
Peace, remember peace is how we make it
Here within your reach if you're big enough to take it
I don't ask for much, I only want your trust
And you know it don't come easy
And this love of mine keeps growing all the time
Instant amnesia makes you forget
Your worries, your troubles, forgives you your debt
Instant amnesia it's already gone
You think you remember tomorrow you're wrong
Let it go, let it go
Instant amnesia it's just like a kiss
You can't close your eyes it's too easy to miss
Instant amnesia you can't take no pill
There's no medicine so it must be God's will
Let it go, let it go, let it go
Is this in my mind?
In your mind
Is this in my mind?
In your mind, mind
It's like instant karma
We've been there before
Do you hear the doctor
He's knocking at your door
Let it go, let it go, let it go
Instant amnesia
Instant amnesia
Instant amnesia
Instant amnesia
If you're ever feelin' down
If your world ain't turnin' 'round
I'll make it turn around for you
I'll do whatever I can do
If you ever need someone
(If you need someone)
I would love to be the one
Call when you're feeling all alone
(When you're all alone)
If you just need a hand to hold
(When you need a hand to hold)
In a heartbeat
I'll be by your side
Any time you want me
Any time you want me
In a heartbeat
You can have my love
Any time you want me
Baby, in a heartbeat I'll be there
If your sky is full of rain
Help you find the sun again
I'll chase the clouds away for you
I'll find a brighter day for you
Any hour of the night
(You know i'll be there)
I'll be there as fast as lightning strikes
And when you're feeling all alone
(When you're all alone)
I'll be the hand that you can hold
(When you need a hand to hold)
In a heartbeat
I'll be by your side
Any time you want me
Any time you want me
In a heartbeat
You can have my love
Any time you want me
Baby, in a heartbeat I'll be there
(Baby, in a heartbeat I'll be there)
In a heartbeat
I'll be by your side
Any time you want me
Any time you want me
In a heartbeat
You can have my love
Any time you want me
Baby, in a heartbeat I'll be there
In a heartbeat
I'll be by your side
Any time you want me
Any time you want me
In a heartbeat

I was walkin', I was talkin'
I was talkin' to myself last night
I was dancin', yeah I was dancin'
I was dancin' by myself last night
My occupation is syncopation
And when I hit 'em well it saves my life
I've been a sinner, I've been a winner
My life's better than a roll of the dice
Everybody's movin' everybody's groovin'
Goin' thru the motions 'cause we don't know what we're doin'
Look into the mirror - youre the solution
Inner peace and love is the only revolution
I look in a mirror, I look in a mirror
I look in a mirror and I'm looking alright
I never worry, I never hurry
I'm just livin' and I'm doin' alright
Everybody's movin' everybody's groovin'
Having so much fun
'Cause we're happy what we're doin'
Look into the mirror - you're the solution
Inner peace and love is the only revolution
I was dreamin', I was talkin'
I was talkin' in my sleep last night
Everybody's movin' everybody's groovin'
Having so much fun
'Cause we're happy what we're doin'
Look into the mirror - you're the solution
Inner peace and love is the only revolution
I was lookin', I was cookin'
I was cookin' by myself last night
I was dancin', I was dancin'
Leavin' again
I don't know where or when we'll meet again
Gypsies in flight
I look into your eyes and see Gypsies in flight
I see your face
In everyone who passes, can't take your place
With some regrets
Our affair has ended but who can forget?
Gypsies in flight
I look into your eyes and see Gypsies in flight
I'd like to thank you for spending time with me
And when the mornin' comes, I know you must be free
Leavin' again
I don't know where or when we'll meet again
Gypsies in flight
I look into your eyes and see Gypsies in flight
Gypsies in flight
(Gypsies in flight)
I look into your eyes and see Gypsies in flight
Gypsies in flight
One and a-two and a-one, two, three, four, all right
I took my baby to a party last night, ah-hah-hah
She was so beautiful, she made me uptight, ah-hah-hah
Up came a butcher with her ju jus alight, ah-hah-hah
It's all da-da-da-down to goodnight Vienna
Felt like a bohunk but I kept up my cool, ah-hah-hah
Green as a frog, man, I was back into school, ah-hah-hah
Zipped up my mouth 'cause I was starting to drool, ah-hah-hah
It's all da-da-da-down to goodnight Vienna
Get it up, get it up, get it up, get it up
She said she loved me but I knew she was lying, ah-hah-hah
Felt like an arab who was dancing through zion, ah-hah-hah
Don't call no doctor when you just feel like crying, ah-hah-hah
It's all da-da-da-down to goodnight Vienna
Get it up
(Keep it up)
Get it up
(Keep it up)
Get it up
(Keep it up)
Get it up
(Keep it up)
I took my baby to a party last night, ah-hah-hah
She was so beautiful, she made me uptight, ah-hah-hah
Up came a butcher with his needles in sight, ah-hah-hah
Monday is here and I'm feeling no pain
Easy jet ticket to take me to Spain
Captain, get your foot down
In two hours, I'll be there
Tuesday, in love with a girl I don't know
Lost her that night in the Karma disco
I don't care, lovers are everywhere
It's a good day for nothing at all
Bad day for taking a fall
It's a holiday, don't bother to call
Free drinks for one and for all
Free drinks, free drinks, free drinks
Wednesday, I'm shopping in Juan Les Pins
Dressed to the nines, now, I'm dancing in Cannes
Can you stay with me in Saint-Tropez?
Thursday, a suite at Saint Paul's Colombe D'or
Chagall's on the walls and her dress on the floor
A kiss goodbye, it's time for me to fly
It's a good day for nothing at all
Bad day for taking a fall
It's a holiday, don't bother to call
Free drinks for one and for all
Free drinks, free drinks, free drinks
Free drinks
1, 2, 3, 4
Friday, I sleep, I'm not sure where I am
Saturday, Saturday, first class on American
To LA but only for one day
Now, it's Sunday
[Incomprehensible]
Good day for nothing at all
It's a bad day for taking a fall
Holiday, don't bother to call
Free drinks for one and for all
It's a good day to ram the hall
It's a bad day for climbing the walls
It's a holiday, don't bother to call
Free drinks for one and for all
Good day for nothing at all
It's a bad day for taking a fall
Holiday, don't bother to call
Free drinks for one and for all
Free drinks, free drinks, free drinks
Free drinks, free drinks, free drinks
Remember when I said it don't come easy?
That seems so long ago
Well nothings changed and if you don't believe me
Look out your window
I wonder why, we gotta try?
To see eye to eye to eye
What's mine is yours
What's yours is mine
When we see eye to eye to eye
The wold is spinning and our lives go faster
It's getting out of control
So don't lose sight of what we're going after
It's in your heart and soul
We'll never lose
Why don't we choose?
To see eye to eye to eye
If we begin, we all can win
When we see eye to eye to eye
Let's fill the wold with joy and laughter
Do it now, there many be no after
Peace and love and harmony, now tell me how hard can it be?
It's easy, believe me
Remember when I said?
It don't come easy
That seems so long ago
I wonder why it's hard to try?
To see eye to eye to eye
What's mine is yours
What's yours is mine
If we see eye to eye to eye
We never lose
Why don't we choose?
We all can win when we begin
And to see eye to eye to eye
Eye to eye to eye
Will we ever learn what makes this world go round?
Now it's our concern, we still return to the same old ground
Nothing is new under the sun but things will get better
When we all are one we'll play a different game
Harmony is fine but after a time, well the key must change
Open your eyes, don't lose your way, remember today
Ah, everyone wins
The light that's shining out from you will touch everything that you see
Ah, everyone wins
You reach into the silence, you will find it's the time to believe
Take care of yourself, there's no mystery
Try to understand everything's planned, it's more than you or me
Magic may come, magic may go, it's not the end of the show
Ah, everyone wins
The light that's shining out from you will touch everything that you see
Ah, everyone wins
You reach into the silence, you will find it's the time to believe
One day you will find the doubts you had are taken from your mind
Taken from your mind
Ah, everyone wins
The light that's shining out from you will touch everything that you see
Ah, everyone wins
You reach into the silence, you will find it's the time to believe
Ah, everyone wins
Everyone wins
Elizabeth reigns
Over and under
Elizabeth reigns
Lightning and thunder
Elizabeth reigns
Since I was younger
She's head of the family
Elizabeth reigns over me
The Queen mum is dead
But she lives in my head
Since the world was at war
We all felt her pain
But never complained
We all loved her more
Elizabeth reigns
A letter unsent
Entombed in cement
And hung from the hanging tree
God save the Queen
If you know what I mean
We don't really need a king
Six hundred servants
Use her detergent
Scrubbing the palace floor
And all of your sins are
As big as the Windsors
So lets point our fingers
No more
Elizabeth reigns
Elizabeth reigns
(Williams)
Give me the beat boys
Give me the beat boys
Day after day I'm more confused
But I look for the light through the pouring rain
You know that's a game that I hate to lose
I'm feeling the strain
Ain't it a shame
(Chorus)
Give me the beat boys and free my soul
I wanna get lost in the rock and roll
And drift away
I'm beginning to think that I'm wasting my time
And I don't understand the things I do
The world outside looks so unkind
Now it's up to you
To carry me through
(to Chorus)
And when my mind is free
You know the melody can move me
And when I'm feeling blue
The guitar's coming through to soothe me
Thanks for the joy you've given me
I want you to know that I believe in the song
You help me along
You're making me strong
Give me the beat boys
Give me the beat boys
Well, you gotta have soap to wash your sins away
You gotta have hope, it's the price you gotta pay
And you gotta give love or your love will walk away
And you gotta stay loose, it's the only way to stay
Down, you got me goin', goin' 'round, you got me goin' down
Da-da down, da-da down
Down to the bottom, to the bottom of a hole, goin' down
Goin' down to the bottom, to the bottom of a hole, goin' down
Down, got me goin', goin' 'round, got me goin' down
Goin' down, down, down
Goin' down to the bottom of a hole, goin' down
I'm goin' down to the bottom, to the bottom of a hole, goin' down
Down, you got me goin', goin' 'round, you got me goin' down
Da-da-da down
Down, you got me goin', goin' 'round, you got me goin' down
You got me goin', goin' down
You got me goin', goin' down
Every time I see you walkin' down the street
I say, you're the kind of woman I just gotta meet
You look so good and you look so fine
And one of these days I'm gonna make you mine
Your eyes are green and your legs are long
And if I'm gonna get you, well, I gotta be strong
But you're like the devil with horns in your head
The only way I'll get you is to get you in bed
Devil woman, you're like a stranger to me
Devil woman, this ain't the way it should be
Every time I see you in the neighborhood
I say, you're the kind of woman that makes me feel good
I wanna beat you up then I wanna be kind
And one of these days I'm gonna make you mine
Sexy Sadie, you look like the devil to me
Devil woman, that's not the way it should be, yeah
Devil woman, you're like a stranger to me
Devil woman, this ain't the way it should be
Early in the mornin' when the sun is hot
All I do is think about the things you got
But you're like the devil with horns in your head
The only way I'll get you is to get you in bed
Devil woman, you're like an angel to me
Devil woman, this ain't the way it should be, yeah
Every time I see you walkin' down the street
I say, you're the kind of woman I just gotta meet
But you're like the devil with horns in your head
The only way I'll get you is to get you in bed
But you're like the devil with horns in your head
The only way I'll get you is to get you in bed
You look like the devil with horns in your head
The only way I'll get you is to get you in bed
Dear Santa, I know it's Christmas time again
How I love to sing the songs
And everyone becomes a friend
When they start to sing along
Dear Santa, I don't need a brand new toy
The ones I have are working fine
So give my toy to another girl or boy
I hope you'll get it there on time
Dear Santa, we need you here
Just give us one present for a Happy New Year
Merry Christmas, let the sleigh bells ring
Dear Santa, bring peace and love, that would be everything
Dear Santa, well, I've heard it all before
From jingle bells to no more wars
But now it's time to change people's minds
I know you'll get it there on time
Dear Santa, we need you here
Just bring us one present for a Happy New Year
Merry Christmas, let the sleigh bells ring
Dear Santa, bring peace and love, that would be everything
And now it's time to change our minds
I hope you'll get it there on time
Dear Santa, we need you here
Just bring us one present for a Happy New Year
Merry Christmas, let the sleigh bells ring
Dear Santa, bring peace and love, that would be everything
Dear Santa, we need you here
Just bring us one present for a Happy New Year
Dear Santa, Merry Christmas
Dear Santa, have a Happy New Year
Dear Santa, Dear Santa, Merry Christmas

I'll have a blue Christmas without you
I'll be so blue thinking about you
Decorations in red on a green Christmas tree
Won't mean a thing if you're not here with me
I'll have a blue Christmas that's certain
And when that blue heartache start hurtin'
You'll be doing all right with your Christmas of white
But I'll have a blue, blue Christmas
I'll have a blue Christmas without you
I'll be so blue thinking about you
You'll be doing all right with your Christmas of white
But I'll have a blue, blue Christmas
I'll have a blue, without you, blue Christmas
You came into my life when I was looking for an alibi
You looked in my eyes and I could tell you no lie
I was making life, feel all right, but it wasn't good
Lookin' at you, lookin' at me, I knew you understood
I've been down for so long, looking for a good disguise
Feelin' sorry for myself, I didn't realize
That I was digging holes, acting roles with no lines to say
I was losing sleep, counting sheep that never went away
I was waitin' for you to come into my life
Making up stories or looking for an alibi
Now we're together, it's gonna be never, we'll be parted again
I've loved you since the day we met and that was way back when
I was making life, feel all right in the same old way
I'm digging holes, acting roles with no lines to say
I was waitin' for you to come into my life
Making up stories, looking for an alibi
Looking for an alibi
Oh, looking for an alibi
They're gonna put me in the movies
They're gonna make a big star out of me
We'll make a film about a man that's sad and lonely
And all I gotta do is act naturally
Well, I bet you I'm gonna be a big star
Might win an 'Oscar', you can never tell
The movie's gonna make me a big star
'Cause I can play the part so well
Well, I hope you'll come and see me in the movies
Then I'll know that you will plainly see
The biggest fool that ever hit the big time
And all I gotta do is act naturally
We'll make a film about a man that's sad and lonely
And beggin' down upon his bended knee
I'll play the part and I won't need rehearsin'
All I gotta do is act naturally
Well, I bet you I'm gonna be a big star
Might win an 'Oscar', you can never tell
The movie's gonna make me a big star
'Cause I can play the part so well
Well, I hope you'll come and see me in the movies
Then I'll know that you will plainly see
The biggest fool that ever hit the big time
And all I gotta do is act naturally
All I gotta do is act naturally
You're feeling down
you're feeling blue
You do know that you care
But you don't know what to do.
If your Mamma don't feel good
Or your daddy don't feel good
Take a dose of rock'n' roll
And wash it down with cool clear soul
Ya better get your ripple soles out
Ease out all them mean controls
Take a dose of rock'n' roll
And wash it down with cool clear soul
Turn on your radio start dancin' to the moon
That old heart radio
it's gonna get ya
get ya.
Get ya in the mood.
Ya better get your ripple soles out
If your Mamma don't feel good

PRIVATE PROPERTY,
DON'T RUN OFF WITH IT,
YOU'LL BE BREAKING THE LAW.
LOVE MONOPOLY,
MY PHILOSOPHY,
DON'T GO FOOLING WITH PRIVATE PROPERTY.
'CAUSE SHE'S MINE, SHE BELONGS TO ME,
AND WE'LL GET ON FINE AS LONG AS YOU AGREE
THAT SHE'S MINE PRIVATE PROPERTY,
PRIVATE PROPERTY.
PRIVATE PROPERTY,
DON'T RUN AFTER IT,
YOU'LL BE FACING A CHARGE.
HAVE SOME COMMON SENSE,
YOU GET OFF THE FENCE,
DON'T GO FOOLING WITH PRIVATE PROPERTY.
IT'S KNOWN WHEN WE'RE IN A CROWD,
THAT THERE'S GONNA BE NO TRESPASSING ALLOWED.
'CAUSE SHE'S MINE PRIVATE PROPERTY,
PRIVATE PROPERTY.

WRACK MY BRAIN, WRACK MY BRAIN,
TILL MY HEAD'S FILLED WITH PAIN,
WRACK MY BRAIN.
ALL DRIED UP, I'M ALL DRIED UP,
ALL I HAVE'S THIS EMPTY CUP,
ALL DRIED UP.
WHAT I HAVE, YOU DON'T WANT,
WHAT YOU WANT, I CAN'T GIVE.
I GOT OUT OF TOUCH WITH YOU AND YOURS,
THE WAY THAT YOU LIVE.
I TRY TO DO MY BEST FOR YOU,
WHILE THE SKY POURS DOWN THE RAIN,
WRACK MY BRAIN.
WITH A WILL THERE'S A WAY,
BUT THERE'S NO WAY I CAN SEE,
COMING UP WITH SOMETHING YOU'D ENJOY
AS MUCH AS TV
ALL THE SAME, I PLAY THE GAME,
UP AND DOWN OLD MEMORY LANE,
WRACK MY BRAIN, (wrack my brain)
TILL MY HEAD IS FILLED WITH PAIN,
WRACK MY BRAIN, (wrack my brain)
WHILE I SLOWLY GO INSANE,

maybe your daddy never held you like you should,
maybe your mama just held on the best she could.
ev'ry soul has a secret,
give it away or keep it,
but yesterday's gone so tell me why.
you carry the weight, the weight of the world,
it's breakin' you down on your back like a boulder.
before it's too late, get rid of it, girl,
get it off of your shoulder.
i know you've been used,
but you gotta lose the weight of the world.
maybe i haven't always been there just for you,
maybe i try but then i got my own life too.
ev'ry heart has a hunger,
i'm not getting any younger,
i got all the crosses i can bear.
don't gimme the weight, the weight of the world,
it's breakin' me down on my back like a boulder.
before it's too late, get rid of it, girl,
get it off of my shoulder.
you know i've been used,
and i gotta lose the weight of the world.
it all comes down to who you crucify.
you either kiss the future or the past goodbye,
we could fly so high.
but we carry the weight, the weight of the world,
it's breakin' us down on our backs like a boulder.
before it's too late, get rid of it, girl,
get it off of our shoulders.
we've all been used,
and we gotta lose the weight of the world.
it's takin' us down and the night's growin' colder,
just blame it on fate, that was yesterday, girl.
and we're just growin' older.
we've all been used,
now it's time to lose the weight of the world,
the weight of the world,
By Pee Wee King, Redd Stewart and Chilton Price

ev'ry night she's on the corner,
she's got her business in the street.
her smile may make you think that you can own her,
but that smile's reserved for ev'ryone she sees.
woman of the night, i've heard them call her,
but she's still a woman when morning comes around.
she walks through the market as a lady
and she's kinda nice to have around.
she's a woman of the night and i love her,
altho' her love, my silver doesn't buy.
it's worth the rain to have a little sunshine
and you laugh much louder when you learn to cry.
i've seen them pay for her affection,
but when morning comes, no one calls her name.
she wakes to find no sign of appreciation,
still she isn't wearing any shame.
she's a woman of the night and i love her,
altho' her love, my silver doesn't buy.
it's worth the rain to have a little sunshine

she's a woman of the night and i love her,

YOU SAID YOU WERE MY FRIEND,
YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW MY NAME.
IS THIS THE BEGINNING OF THE END
SINGING YOUR SONGS WITH THE SAME OLD PAIN.
WITHOUT UNDERSTANDING WHERE CAN WE GO?
AND IF THE WORLD STOPS TURNING HOW WILL WE KNOW?
UNDERSTANDING,
IMAGINATION,
WITHOUT UNDERSTANDING,
NO GOOD VIBRATIONS.
THE BOOK IS OPEN TO ME,
I CAN SEE IN YOUR EMPTY PAGES
YOU GOT EYES THAT WON'T SEE,
TRAVELING BLIND IN YOUR OWN MAZES.
WITHOUT UNDERSTANDING WHERE CAN WE GO? (hey, hey, hey)
AND IF THE WORLD STOPS TURNING HOW WILL WE KNOW?
UNDERSTANDING,
IMAGINATION,
WITHOUT UNDERSTANDING,
NO GOOD VIBRATIONS.
WHEN YOU HEAR THE ANGEL SOUNDS (hey, hey hey)
TURN AROUND. (yeah)
TWO VOICES BECOMING JUST LIKE ONE,
CAN IT BE DONE?
WITHOUT UNDERSTANDING (understanding) WHERE CAN WE GO?
AND IF THE WORLD STOPS TURNING HOW WILL WE KNOW?

NO GOOD VIBRATIONS.

This is an anthem for peace and love
We gotta keep trying, we can't give up
This is the day, no turning away
This is an anthem
You think you got it covered
You say you know the score
But people are dying, there's no denying
But do we, do we know what for?
We know, we know, we know
We know, we know, we know it's true
We know, we know, we know
What we've gotta do
This is an anthem of peace and love
We gotta keep trying, we can't try enough
This is the day, no turning away
This is an anthem
It's not all knives and bullets
It's from hunger, too
But never say never, let's get it together
'Cause we know, we know what to do
We know, we know, we know
We know, we know, we know it's true
We know, we know, we know
What we've gotta do
We know, we know, we know
We know, we know, we know it's true
We know, we know, we know
What we've gotta do
This is an anthem of peace and love
We gotta keep trying, we can't try enough
This is the day, no turning away
This is an anthem
No man ever made it on his own
No man ever made it all alone
We've gotta help out
And we've gotta shout
This is an anthem
(This is an anthem)
This is an anthem
(Of peace and love)
This is an anthem
(This is an anthem)
This is an anthem
What could I do when I didn't know
when I was young I was younger
give me an answer, its yes or no
how can we wait, any longer.
So baby, don't forget this
what comes around will go
maybe you'll regret this
well, maybe never knows.
Love first, ask questions later
moments pass, they won't wait for the waiter
no one's ever found the power that is greatest
so love first, ask questions later.
Nothing but joy in the tears we cry
nothing but light in around us
trust in each other as years go by
no that forever has bound us.
It ain't so complicated
its easy after all
it can't be overstated
the writing's on the wall.
Love first, ask questions later ...
From all the masters through all time
there's just one truth we have to find
my love is yours, your love is mine.
Baby, don't forget this
what comes around will go
I promise you won't regret this
tomorrow never knows.

you're so diff'rent from anyone i've ever known
and to try to change you now, would be all wrong.
sometimes i don't understand ev'rything you say,
but i wouldn't have you any other way.
i wouldn't want you if you weren't you,
and i'll admit, i don't understand half the things you do.
sometimes i don't go along with things you say and do,
but i wouldn't have you any other way.

THE AUDIENCE CHEERED, SCOUSE HAD TRIUMPHED.

-"AMBER..."
-"MM..."
-"WHY DID I DREAM ABOUT YOU LAST NIGHT?"
-"DID YOU?"
-" I DON'T KNOW, MAYBE YOU WERE REALLY HERE, WERE YOU?"
-"HOW COULD I HAVE BEEN? WE HAVEN'T EVEN MET.
Me and Billy were a couple of kids
Nobody knew about the things that we did
Sharing our toys and riding our bikes
We thought it would last for the rest of our lives
But we gave it all up
We gave it all up
We gave it all up for school
Then my family had to move out of town
Made some new friends and started hangin' around
Started stealing like the rest of the guys
My friend got caught, I saw the fear in his eyes
So I gave it all up
I gave it all up
I gave it all up for love
She was eighteen and I topped her by one
She said she'd heard about the bad things I'd done
But she loved me and she just didn't care
But one night she needed me and I wasn't there
So she gave me right up (gave me right up)
She gave me right up (gave me right up)
She gave me right up for love
As I look back and wonder
Have I wasted my time?
Will I ever learn the meaning of life?
Will I learn it in time?
So I sit here with a couple of beers
Wondering how I've lasted all of these years
You're beside me and it's feeling so right
How I'd like to that you for the rest of my life
'Cause I gave it all up (gave it all up)
I gave it all up (gave it all up)
I gave it all up for you
Gave it all up
I gave it all up
I gave it all up for you
(All for you, gave it all up for you) I gave it all up for you
(All for you, gave it all up for you) So I gave it all up for you
(All for you, gave it all up for you) Gave it all up for you
(All for you, gave it all up for you) So I gave it all up for you
Living on the street
Tonight's a lonely place to be all right, oh lord
The rhythm of the city, I don't find it pretty anymore
Like I did before
You walked out my door
Give me back the beat, give me back the beat
Give me back the only thing that makes my life complete
If you come back to me, I'll be dancing in the street
I miss the two we had before that made me tap my feet
That used to rock this boy asleep now that you're gone
(she's really gone)
Give me back the beat and let's rock on
I feel the pounding of your heart
But I'm alone here in the dark, it's true
Alleys filled with misery
Shadows of your memories break thru
I never knew
How much I needed you
Give me back the beat, give me back the beat
Give me back the only thing that makes my life complete
If you come back to me, I'll be dancing in the street
I miss the two we had before that made me tap my feet
That used to rock this boy asleep now that you're gone
(she's really gone)
Give me back the beat and let's rock on
(ooh, rock on baby)
I won't sleep; baby, I can't eat
I'm in too deep
It's a high fall running into a brick wall all by yourself
But I know what will help
That used to rock this boy asleep now that you're gone
(now that you're gone)
So give me back the beat, you've got to...
(Give me back the beat, give me back the beat)
Give me back the only thing that makes my life complete
If you come back to me, I'll be dancing in the street
I miss the two we had before that made me tap my feet
That used to rock this boy asleep now that you're gone
(she's really gone)
So give me back the beat and let's rock on
(ooh, rock on baby)
So give me back the beat and let's rock on
(rock on)
Give me back the beat... and let's rock on
(ooh, rock on baby)
Let's rock on, baby, mmm...
(ooh, rock on baby)
Gary's rockin'... Mark's rockin' on...
(ooh, rock on baby)
Steve's rockin' on... Ringo's rockin' on!
(ooh, rock on baby)
Come on, rock!

I GOT UP TODAY AND I TOOK A LOOK AROUND,

LIVING THIS LIFE IS REALLY GETTING ME DOWN,

DIALOG:
"I SHALL BE BOUGHT BY SOMEONE RICH AND FAMOUS. I SHALL LIVE IN A GOLDEN CAGE IN A GREAT HOUSE." SAID THE WITH MOUSE TO A BUDGERIGAR. THEY WERE SITTING IN A WINDOW OF A PET SHOP IN LIVERPOOL. THEY SPOKE A LANGUAGE CALLED ANIMO WHICH NO HUMAN BEING CAN UNDERSTAND. ALL THE DOGS AND CATS, BIRDS AND FISH SPOKE ANIMO.
A LITTLE BOY CAME INTO THE SHOP.
"I'M LOOKING FOR A MOUSE." THE BOY BOUGHT THE MOUSE.
THE MOUSE OPENED HIS EYES IN A HOUSE IN LIVERPOOL. HE WAS IN A CAGE. PEOPLE WERE TALKING ABOUT HIM, HE COULDN'T' UNDERSTAND THEM. AT THIS TIME HE COULD SPEAK ONLY ANIMO.
"I MUST LEARN THIS LANGUAGE," THOUGHT THE MOUSE, "IF I'M TO GET ANYWHERE AT ALL."
"HEY, YOU LOT! COME AND GET YOUR SCOUSE!" SHOUTED MOTHER. SCOUSE IS A KIND OF STEW MADE IN LIVERPOOL. "HERE YOU ARE, MOUSE, HAVE A BIT OF SCOUSE, YOU'RE A LIVERPOOL MOUSE SO YOU SHOULD EAT SCOUSE. HEY! THAT'S WHAT I'LL CALL HIM, SCOUSE THE MOUSE!"
THE FATHER SWITCHED ON THE TELEVISION.

I LEFT LOUISIAN, I HAD ME BIG PLANS
TO GO OUT AND TAKE ME ALL OVER THIS LAND.
TO SEE ME THE WORLD, I LEFT MY SWEET GIRL
AND GAVE IT A WHIRL BUT NOW HERE I STAND,
ALONG SIDE THE ROAD WITH HOLES IN MY SOUL AND MY SHOES
AND BEAUCOUPS OF BLUES.
OH, SWEET MAGNOLIA,
BREATH CARRIED OVER THE MARSH BY A BREEZE FROM THE GULF.
I'M COMING HOME, (coming home)
I'VE HAD ME ENOUGH.
OH, WHERE ARE THE THINGS I SAW IN MY DREAMS?
WHERE'S THE HAPPY THAT FREEDOM SHOULD BRING?
I SEE ME TODAY AND KNOW YESTERDAY
THAT I THREW AWAY MY MOST PRECIOUS THINGS.
I SEE ME A MAN WHO'S LONELY, WANTS ONLY TO LOSE
BEAUCOUPS OF BLUES.
OH, SWEET MAGNOLIA,
BREATH CARRIED OVER THE MARSH BY A BREEZE FROM THE GULF.
I'M COMING HOME, (coming home)
I'VE HAD ME ENOUGH.

-"A FEW THINGS I'VE LEARNT MYSELF IN THE LAST COUPLE OF HOURS."
-"REALLY?"
-"THAT YOU'RE CHARMING, ATTRACTIVE, THE PERFECT HEIR-"
I tried my best to get things over
Did everything that I could do
I didn't really want to hurt you
But you must have realized that we were though
Now don't it make you feel like cryin'
Watching a good love slowly die?
You and me could spend a lifetime tryin'
But we'd be better off just to simply say goodbye
Just like two fools, we couldn't make it
The movie just went on too long
I've been 'round and you've been through it
But now I know we're getting strong
Now don't it make you feel like cryin'
Watching a good love slowly die?
You and me could spend a lifetime tryin'
But we'd be better off just to simply say goodbye
It's time we burned our old love letters
And started out on a brand new life
No one else can come between us
'Cause I'm not your man, you're not my wife
Still it makes me feel like cryin'
Watching a good love slowly die?
You and me could spend a lifetime tryin'
But we'd be better off just to simply say goodbye
Still it makes me feel like cryin'
But we'd be better off just to simply say goodbye
(Bye-bye, bye-bye, bye-bye, bye-bye)

I WOKE UP FROM A BAD DREAM
TO THE HOWLING OF A LONELY NIGHT.
BUT THE WALLS COME CLOSING IN
LIKE THE VICTIM OF A ONE-WAY FIGHT.
I DON'T REMEMBER MANY YESTERDAYS,
I LEFT A LOT OF THINGS UNDONE,
NOW I'M BACK AND I'M HERE TO SAY
I'M LOOKING AFTER NUMBER ONE.
DON'T GO, DON'T GO WHERE THE ROAD DON'T GO,
DON'T GO, DON'T GO WHERE THE ROAD DON'T GO.
SEEING PEOPLE ON THE FREEWAY,
TAKES ME BACK TO WHERE I STARTED FROM.
I WAS RIDING ON THE BIG WHEEL,
I WAS WALKING IN A MIDNIGHT SUN.
WELL, I DID A LOT OF FAVOURS THEN,
I ASKED FOR NOTHING IN RETURN.
NOW THOSE FRIENDS HAVE ALL DISAPPEARED,
I GUESS THERE'S STILL SO MUCH TO LEARN.
DON'T GO, DON'T GO WHERE THE ROAD DON'T GO,
DON'T GO, DON'T GO WHERE THE ROAD DON'T GO.
DON'T GO, DON'T YOU GO WHERE THE ROAD DON'T GO.

THEN HOW THE REINDEERS LOVED HIM,
AND THEY SHOUTED OUT WITH GLEE (they shout with glee)

what will i do at sundown,
what will i do at dawn,
what will i do at noontime,
now that i've found you gone?
what will i do for sunshine
with nothing but the rain?
how can i smile,
find life worth while
with a heart that's filled with pain?
my, how i miss
your tender kiss
and the wonderful things you would do.
i run my hands
thru' sil'vry strands
'cause i'm blue, turning grey over you.
well, you used to be
so good to me,
that's when i was a novelty.
now you have new thrills in view,
found someone new,
left me blue, turning grey over you.
i said, how can i smile,
find life worth while
with a heart that's filled with pain?
you used to be
so good to me,
that's when i was a novelty.
well, now you have found some new thrills to view,
and some new buddy friends and i don't know what to do.
because i'm blue, turning grey over you.
yeh, come on, hit me, daddy, hit me,
let me hear it one time!
oh yeah,
ba-sa-sa-sa-sa-sa-sa-sa-so-so-so-so
ba-sa-sa-sa-sa-dootsie-dootise-doo.
Dark clouds in my head ... dis ... ap ... pear
The sky is turning blue ... now you're here
We've come a long way ... day after day ...
we still got a long way to go
You've got to pay your dues ... if you want to sing the blues
But, no matter what you choose ... choose love
The Long and Winding Road ... is more than a song
Tomorrow Never Knows ... What Goes On
To live your life right ... you've got to let in the light ...
and let all the darkness go
You've got to pay your dues ... if you want to sing the blues
But, no matter who you choose ... choose love
Love ... love ... love ... love ... love
CHOOSE LOVE!
You've got to pay your dues ... if you want to sing the blues
But, no matter how you choose ...
You've got to pay your dues ... if you want to sing the blues
But, no matter what you choose ... choose love
Choose love ... choose love ... choose love
I wear my heart on my sleeve, I'm not afraid
To say what I mean, mean what I say
I set myself up, let myself down
I may be a fool to spread it around
But I just wanna let you know
Sometimes I find it so hard not to show
So I sigh and I let my feelings go
I wear my heart on my sleeve, don't count the cost
If I can't live in love then surely I've lost
You tend to get burned, tend to get bruised
But it's my life whatever I choose
Oh, I just wanna let you know
Sometimes I, I find it so hard not to show
So I sigh and I let my feelings go
I wear my heart on my sleeve
I wear my heart on my sleeve
You tend to get burned, tend to get bruised
But it's my life whatever I choose
Oh, I just wanna let you know
'Cause sometimes I find it so hard not to show
So I sigh, but, baby, you're not alone
You wear your heart on your sleeve (just like me)
You wear your heart on your sleeve
I wear my heart on my sleeve
I wear my heart on my sleeve
I wear my heart on my sleeve (ah, ah)
I wear my heart on my sleeve
I wear my heart on my sleeve (ah, ah)
Mmm, my heart on my sleeve
(Baby, you know) I wear my heart on my sleeve (ah, ah)
Oh, my heart on my sleeve
You wear your heart on your sleeve (ah, ah)

I SIT AND WATCH WHILE OTHERS SING AND DANCE,
BUT I KNOW SOME DAY I WILL HAVE MY CHANCE.
I'M DOWN TODAY, IT'S TRUE,
MY CHANCES HAVE BEEN FEW,
BUT I'M NOT DISCOURAGED 'CAUSE I KNOW WHAT I CAN DO.
I MAY BE A TINY MOUSE AND IN A CAGE,
BUT I KNOW I BELONG UPON THE STAGE.
AND SOME DAY I WILL BE
A PERSONALITY
AND THEN THE ONE I'M WATCHING ON THE TV WILL BE ME.
NOW PEOPLE TEND TO TREAT A MOUSE
WITH SIMPLE CONVERSATIONS,
BUT I AM LIKE NO MOUSE YOU'VE EVER SEEN.
SO IF YOU THINK OF ME THAT WAY,
THEN MAYBE I SHOULD MENTION,
I'M SCOUSE THE MOUSE AND I HAVE GOT A DREAM.
OOH!
SO LOOK OUT, WORLD, 'CAUSE HERE I COME,
IF YOU WANT SOMEONE SPECIAL, I'M THE ONE.
ALTHOUGH I MAY BE SMALL,
IT DOESN'T BOTHER ME AT ALL,
'CAUSE I KNOW IN MY HEART THAT SOME DAY I'LL BE TEN FEET TALL.
DIALOG:
NOBODY HEARD THIS MOUSE SINGING IN THE NIGHT AS HE DREAMED OF THE FAMOUS LIFE ON THE TELEVISION.
CHRISTMAS CAME.
ON CHRISTMAS MORNING THE BOY RAN IN, CHEWING A MINTS PIE.
"HERE YOU ARE, MISTER SCOUSE, IT'S A CHRISTMAS PRESENT FOR YOU." IT WAS A TINY ROPE LADDER.
"SEE IF YOU CAN RUN UP THAT!" THE BOY TURNED HIS BACK. THE BOY HAD LEFT THE DOOR OPEN!
SCOUSE SEES THE ROPE LADDER AND SWUNG LIKE TARZAN OUT INTO SPACE.
"HEY! COME BACK!"
THERE WAS A TINY HOLE IN THE WALL, SCOUSE DISAPPEARED. THROUGH THE MOUSEHOLE HE COULD SEE HIS BELOVED TELLY. HE FELT SOMETHING, LOOKED, A BROWN MOUSE WAS STARING AT HIM.
"HELLO, WHITIE!" SAID THE BROWN MOUSE. IN ANIMO, OF COURSE.
"WHAT? WHO'S THAT? WHO ARE YOU?"
"I'M A MOUSE. I LIVE HERE. I WAS WATCHING YOU DOING ALL THOSE FUNNY NOISES."
"THAT'S SPEAKING! THAT'S ENGLISH! I LEARNT IT FROM THE TELLY. I COULD TEACH YOU ENGLISH. OH, SORRY, I FORGOT, I LEAVE TONIGHT."
"WHERE YOU GOING?"
"INTO THE WORLD! THE WORLD NEEDS ME! WHY DON'T YOU JOIN ME, WE COULD BE A GROUP?"
"I'LL THINK ABOUT IT."
"WHAT'S YOUR NAME?"
"BONCE, BECAUSE I'VE GOT A BIG HEAD. MY FATHER CALLED ME THAT. HE WAS A LONDON MOUSE."
ALL THAT DAY, SCOUSE AND BONCE WATCHED THROUGH THEIR PEEPHOLE , PEOPLE LAUGHED AND CHILDREN PLAYED. THE SMELL OF THE CHRISTMAS DINNER. THE MICE WERE VERY HUNGRY.

DOESN'T MAKE A DIFF'RENCE,
DON'T CARE HOW FAR.
WE CAN GO THE DISTANCE IN MY CAR.
DON'T BOTHER WITH DIRECTIONS,
DOESN'T MATTER WHERE WE ARE.
CRUISIN' DOWN THE HIGHWAY IN MY CAR.
HEY!
IN MY CAR.
I DON'T NEED NO BACK SEAT DRIVERS,
SO I LEAVE THEM ALL BEHIND.
AND PROBLEMS, THEY CAN'T FIND ME IN MY CAR.
IN MY CAR.
HEY!
IN MY CAR.
(In my car)

Everything about you is so doggone sweet
You got that sand all over your feet
Well someone's gotta love ya on a Saturday night
Sunday morning you don't look right
You've been out paintin' the town
by bobby pierce
there's a honky tonk in this town,
they call the loser's lounge,
and i guess i'm a charter member, you could say.
since love has turned me down,
nothing to do but hang around
and listen to all the fools who come to say.
that life is full of heartaches for a poor boy,
'cause a bank roll can turn his woman's head around.
ain't no use to try and run away or move to another town,
'cause any where a poor boy goes there's a loser's lounge.
had a real good friend named sam,
said he just couldn't understand
why in the world his sweet love let him down.
but a rich man caught her eye,
he had the money for things to buy.
now there's a brand new member
down at the loser's lounge.

I'VE GOT TWO GIRLS FROM COAST TO COAST,

Gone are the days
Gone are the days
sometimes you lose yourself
nobody's there when you fight for him
Gone are the days
Gone are the days
I hope you find what you're looking for
You could chose young it's an open door
I know you will believe me
When I say it won't come easy
Oh no, oh no it don't come easy
You think you've got a problem
I know you've got a problem, oh yeah
Oh yeah
I know you will believe me
When I say it don't come easy
Oh no, oh no it don't come easy
You think you've got a problem
I know you've got a problem, oh yeah

I LOOKED OUT MY WINDOW
AND WATCHED ALL THE PEOPLE GO BY.
I WONDER WHAT HAPPENS
AND WHO'S TAKING WHO FOR A RIDE.
(Don't you know that I'm bound?)
I'M BOUND TO PICK UP THE PIECES AND WATCH THEM LAND. (watch them land)
I'M STANDING ALL BY MYSELF,
AIN'T GOT NOBODY ELSE,
ALL BY MYSELF,
I DON'T NEED NOBODY.
(Ooh, ooh, ooh)
I WORK OUT MY PROBLEMS,
I'M STARTING ALL OVER AGAIN.
I JUST STARTED SMILING,
I'M MAKING MYSELF SOME NEW FRIENDS.
(Don't you know I've got?)
I'VE GOT A BRAND NEW FEELING I JUST CAN'T HIDE. (just can't hide)
I'M STANDING ALL BY MYSELF,
AIN'T GOT NOBODY ELSE, (to turn to)
ALL BY MYSELF,
I DON'T NEED NOBODY.
(Ooh, ooh, ooh)
(Ooh -, ooh -, ooh -)
WAY BACK IN MY MEM'RY,
I CAN SEE WHERE I'VE WASTED MY TIME.
YOU CAME AND TOOK WHAT YOU WANTED
AND THEN TRIED TO TAKE WHAT WAS MINE.
(Well, don't you know I'm tired)
I'M TIRED OF FINDING MYSELF UP AGAINST THE WALL, IT'S SO TALL.
I'M STANDING ALL BY MYSELF,
AIN'T GOT NOBODY ELSE, (to turn to)
ALL BY MYSELF,
I AIN'T GOT NOBODY.
(Ooh, ooh, ooh)
(I'm standing) ALL BY MYSELF,
AIN'T GOT NOBODY ELSE, (nobody)
ALL BY MYSELF,
I AIN'T GOT NOBODY.
(Ooh, ooh, ooh)
(I'm standing) ALL BY MYSELF,
AIN'T GOT NOBODY ELSE, (to talk to)
ALL BY MYSELF,
I DON'T NEED NOBODY.
(Ooh, ooh, ooh)
