Everyday things change
And the world puts on a new face
Certain things rearrange
And this ol' world seems like, a new place
Oh yeah, secretly I've been trailing you
Like a fox that preys on the rabbit
I had to get you, and so I knew
I had to learn your ways and habits
Oooo you were the catch that I was after
But I looked up and I was in your arms
And I knew I had been captured
What's this ol' world coming to
Things just ain't the same
Anytime the hunter gets captured by the game
Oh yeah
Oh yeah, I had laid such a tender trap
Hopin' you might fall in to it
But love hit me like a sudden slap
One kiss, then I knew it
Ooooo my plan didn't work out, like I thought
'Cause I had laid my trap for you
But it seems like I got caught
What's this ol' world coming to
Things just ain't the same
Anytime the hunter gets captured by the game
Oh yeah
I found the love of a wonderful boy
You lost that sweet bundle of joy
Since you heard i have his love and kisses
Now his love you say you've been missin'
But finders keepers, losers weepers
Finders keepers, losers weepers
Hey hey hey hey, hey hey hey hey
When i found him, he was hurt and sad
I lift him up and made him glad
Now that i have taken your place
Lonely tears have left it’s trace
But finders keepers, losers weepers
Finders keepers, losers weepers
Hey hey hey hey, hey hey hey hey
Every word he speaks to me
They're such sweet things to me
Now you're asking me to let him go
'cause your heart can't take it no more
But finders keepers, losers weepers
Finders keepers, losers weepers
Hey hey hey hey, hey hey hey hey
Finders keepers, losers weepers
Don't give me no headache powders
They don't do no good for me
There's nothing I can take when my head starts to ache
'Cause you're my remedy, oh baby
You're my remedy (you're my remedy)
Oh how you soothe me (oh how you soothe me)
You can call my name, it soothes all my pain
Oh pretty baby (oh pretty baby)
You're my remedy
When things look dark & dreary
& I'm as blue as I can be
The only thing can cheer me is to have you near me
'Cause you're my remedy, oh baby
You're my remedy (you're my remedy)
Oh how you soothe me (oh how you soothe me)
When the going gets tough, & I've stood enough
Oh pretty baby (oh pretty baby)
You're my remedy
Don't call a doctor, a nurse is worse
'Cause a pill won't kill my pain
When I'm feeling blue, you know what to do
To make me feel all right again
Sometimes I get to tremblin' & shakin'
Like a leaf shakin' on a tree
Without you I suspect I'd be a nervous wreck
'Cause you're my remedy, oh baby
You're my remedy (you're my remedy)
Oh how you soothe me (oh how you soothe me)
I need you around to calm me down
Oh pretty baby (oh pretty baby)
You're my remedy
(backup singers sing title x4)
You're my remedy (you're my remedy)
Oh how you soothe me (oh how you soothe me)
You can call me name & soothe all my pain
Oh pretty baby (oh pretty baby)
You're my remedy
One more time now
You're my remedy (you're my remedy)
Oh how you soothe me (oh how you soothe me)
When the going gets tough, & I've stood enough
Oh pretty baby (oh pretty baby)
Spring in the air (filled with love)
There's magic ev'rywhere
When you're young and in love
Life seems to be (just a dream)
A world of fantasy
When you're young and in love
Each night seems just like the Fourth of July
When stars spangle the sky
The moon at night (shines so bright)
Seems to shine twice as bright
When you're young and in love
Ooh, dreams can come true (try a dream)
If you believe they do
When you're young and in love
Though many teardrops are bound to fall
True love can conquer all
When you're, when you're young and in love
(Look and you'll find)
Ooh, ooh yeah
(There's no mountain you can't climb)
When you're young and in love
Though many teardrops are bound to fall
True love can conquer all
When you're, when you're young and in love
(Young and in love)
So in love
(Young and in love)
Oh, yeah
FADE
(Young and in love)
Let's get together and go for a walk in the park
And while we're walking we can steal a little kiss in
the dark
I wanna walk with you (I wanna walk with you)
I wanna talk with you (I wanna talk with you)
But it's up you to say "Come on baby"
If you don't hurry up I'll go crazy
'Cause a walk in the park all alone is just no fun
CHORUS:
What two can easily do, what two can easily do
Is so hard to be done by one
I'm sure that you know that I love you with all of my
heart
But a love that's true really takes two to start
I wanna do my share (I wanna do my share)
To show you that I care (to show you that I care)
'Cause a one-sided love will never do
You gotta show me that you love me too
'Cause falling in love all alone is just no fun
(chorus)
One can build a love affair slowly
Two can build a love affair fast
One can make a love get started
Two can make it last
(instrumental)
So come on and take me by the hand
Lead me up to the preacher man
Together we can do all the things that should be done
Sitting by the window, feeling sad & blue
All because I haven't heard from you
& then my mama said "Look! Look!
Here comes the postman twistin' down the avenue
He's got a letter in his hand
& I know it has to be for you
He's got the mail sack twisted 'round his back
'Cause he's a (twistin' postman)"
Now he's a-twistin' to the left, twistin' to the right
Twistin' all round & round
If he didn't bring the letter to make me feel better
I was gonna put you down
I'm so glad he came in time to ease this achin' heart
of mine
'Cause he's a (twistin' postman)
(backing vocals)
Mail sack swingin' 'round his back
'Cause he's a...
(instrumental)
(Twistin' postman)
Uh huh! He's a twistin' postman! Look at him go!
Twistin', twistin'!
He's got the mail sack twisted 'round his back
'Cause he's a (twistin' postman)"
Twistin' to the left, twistin' to the right
Twistin' all round & round
If he didn't bring the letter to make me feel better
I was gonna put you down
I'm so glad he came in time to ease this achin' heart
of mine
'Cause he's a (twistin' postman)
"Look! Look! Here comes the mailman twistin' down the
avenue
He's got a letter in his hand & I know it has to be for
you"
Listen here, girls
Take this advice, and remember always in life:
Into each heart some tears must fall
Though you love and lose, you must stand tall
'Cause we all got to cry sometimes
I said, sigh sometimes
Pull yourself together
No use crying forever
Because there's too many fish in the sea
Too many fish in the sea
I said, there's short ones, tall ones, fine ones, kind
ones
Too many fish in the sea
My mother once told me something
And every word is true
Don't waste your time on a fella
Who doesn't love you
He'll only mislead you
Only grieve you
Don't worry about him
Do without him
Because there's too many fish in the sea
Too many fish in the sea
I said, there's short ones, tall ones, fine ones, kind
ones
Too many fish in the sea
Well, if the fish isn't on your line
Bait your hook and keep on trying
Don't let him get you down
There's other boys around
Because there's too many fish in the sea
Too many fish in the sea
I said, there's short ones, tall ones, fine ones, kind
ones
Too many fish in the sea
I don't want nobody that don't want me
'Cause there's too many fish in the sea
Ain't gonna love nobody that don't love me, now
'Cause there's too many fish in the sea
I don't need nobody that don't need me
'Cause there's too many fish in the sea
I don't want nobody that don't love me, now
It's strange, I know, but that's the way it goes
Leaving you this way, I'm sorry to say
That my love has faded, faded away
It happened while you were gone
You stayed away too long
You didn't write or even call
I thought you didn't care at all
I was sad as I could be
The same boy who's fella to me
But oh how I tried to resist him, oh how I tried to resist him
But my heart told me to keep him, my heart told me to keep him
It's strange, I know, but that's the way it goes
Leaving you this way, I'm sorry to say
When you get home, I'll be gone
Asked my papa for your letter that I put aside
When you finish the letter, I'll be Eddie's bride
It's strange, I know, but that's the way it goes
Leaving you this way, but that's the way it goes
It's strange, I know
But that's they way, that's they way, that's the way, that's the way it goes
Wait!!
Oh yes, wait a minute Mr. Postman,
Wait!!
Waaaiiit Mr. Postman...
Please Mister Postman, look and see,
Oh yeah,
If there's a letter in your bag for me,
Please, please Mr. Postman,
You know it's been a long time,
Oh yeah,
Since I've heard from that boyfriend of mine.
There must be some word today,
From my boyfriend so far away,
Please Mr. Postman look and see,
Is there a letter?
A letter for me?
I've been standing here waiting Mr. Postman,
Sooo, so patiently,
For just a card, or just a letter,
Saying he's returning home to me.
Please Mr. Postman.
Mr. Postman look and see,
Ooh, Yeeaah,
If there's a letter in your bag for me,
You know it's been so long,
Oh yeah,
Since I heard from that boyfriend of mine.
So many days you passed me by,
You saw the tears standing in my eye,
You wouldn't stop to make me feel better,
By leaving me a card or a letter,
Please Mr. Postman look and see,
Is there a letter, oh yeah,
In your bag for me,
You know it's been so long,
Yes, since I heard from that boyfriend of mine,
You better wait a minute,
Wait a minute,
Oh, you better wait a minute,
Please, please Mr. Postman,
Please check and see,
Just one more time for me,
You better wait, wait a minute,
Wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute,
Please Mr. Postman,
Deliver the letter,
The sooner the better,
Wait a minute, wait a minute,
Wait a minute, please Mr. Postman
Watch out! Oh girls you know we've got to
Watch out! Girls you know we've got to
Watch out here comes that playboy
Watch out here comes that playboy
Watch out here comes that playboy
Playboy get away from my door
I heard about the lovers you had before
You took their love for a game of joy Oh yeah
And tossed their hearts around as though it was a toy
Playboy
Well, Playboy find yourself another toy
Cause this is one heart you won't destroy
Cause I can't stand for what you're puttin down
Fooling around with every girl in town
Playboy
Well,you ain't saying nothing in my book
Cause this is one fish you'll never ever hook
You left the others standing with their hearts in pain
And now you're coming 'round trying to do me the same
So Playboy I've seen your kind
Winning every girl with that same old line
So Playboy stay away from my door
I know about the lovers you had before
Playboy
Whoa you know you've got to
Watch out here comes that Playboy
Yes you know you've got to
Watch out here comes that Playboy
Oh you've got to
Watch out here comes that Playboy
You better,watch out you better,watch out
repeat-3rd verse
So Playboy I've seen your kind
Winning every girl with that same old line
So Playboy stay away from my door
I know about the lovers you had before
Playboy
Whoa you know you better
Watch out here comes that Playboy
Watch out here comes that Playboy
Watch out for de Playboy
He's bringing you false joy
Watch out here comes that Playboy
My daddy told me
That boys may say some things that aren't true
Yeah, they promise many sweet things
That they never intend to do
Whoa, you say your love is strong
And you'd never do me wrong
But let me tell you that
My daddy told me
To open up my eyes and not be blind
Well, 'cause every time I look at you
Everything you do seems so fine
Whoa, I love you so but I have to let you go
Unless you get out and get a job
Whoa, get out and get a job
I'm gonna wait 'til you pass the test
'Cause my daddy knows best
Oh, my daddy knows best now, oh
He doesn't want me to make, no, no, no, no, no, no
The same mistakes, no, no, no, no
He says, "Romance without finance
Can be a nuisance"
I need your loving but my daddy told me
Yes, he told me that our love is fine
Whoa, but don't let it mislead you
'Cause daddy also said that love is blind
While you're in pool rooms
You should be in school rooms
And get out and get a job
Whoa, get out and get a job
I'm gonna wait 'til you pass the test
'Cause my daddy knows best
Oh, I don't care what you say
We've got to do it his way
Don't say that he's mean
You are under my power
It is the power of love
Eyes that hypnotize
And all it takes is just once glance
Just one look at him
Puts me in a lover's trance
Now listen, no rabbits in his hand
No pigeons up his sleeve
But you better believe
When I prove he can do so much
My baby must be a magician
'Cause he's sure got the magic touch
Oh, my morale was low
Then he appeared just like a genie
His love has the power
He's my private great Houdini
No reading decks of cards
No cords that disappear
No special gear
Like Alladin's lamp and such
But my baby must be a magician
'Cause he's sure got the magic touch
Whenever I'm feeling bad
My baby simply kisses me
And then Presto, Chango, Alakazam
I'm alright again, oh, yes I am, yes I am alright
No mystic crystal ball
No long black flowing cape
But I can't escape
From his tender loving touch
Oh my baby must be a magician
'Cause he's sure got the magic touch
Say my baby must be a magician
Spread your wings for New Orleans
Kentucky bluebird, fly away
And take a message to Michael, message to Michael
He sings each night in some cafe
In his search to find wealth and fame
I hear Michael has gone and changed his name
It's a year since he was here
Kentucky bluebird, fly away
And take a message to Michael, message to Michael
Tell him I miss him more each day
As his train pulled out down the track
Michael promised he'd soon be coming back
Oh tell him how my heart just breaks in two
Since he journeyed far
And even though his dreams of fame fell through
To me he will always be a star
Spread your wings for New Orleans
Kentucky bluebird, fly away
And take a message to Michael, message to Michael
Ask him to start for home today
When you find him please let him know
Rich or poor, I will always love him so
Fly away, Kentucky bluebird
Fly away, Kentucky bluebird
I'm puttin' up my guard
I'm lockin' up my heart
Tellin' Cupid to pass by me
'Cause all love ever brought me was misery
Hello loneliness, goodbye love
I'm tired of being abused & being misused
I've had my share of romance, no more for me
I'm lockin' up my heart & throwin' away the key
(Wanda, high soprano):
Lockin' up (lockin' up, lockin' up)
Said I'm gonna throw away the key (throw away the key)
I'm lockin' up (lockin' up)
'Cause all love ever brought me was misery
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
(instrumental)
I don't want (don't want) nobody to love me
Leave me alone & let me be lonely
This way I'll know just where I stand
I'll never have to worry about love again
Lockin' up (lockin' up, lockin' up)
Said I'm gonna throw away the key (throw away the key)
I'm gonna save myself from all this misery
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
(Wanda, high soprano):
Lockin' up (lockin' up, lockin' up)
Said I'm gonna throw away the key
I'm lockin' up (lockin' up my heart)
I'm lockin' up (lockin' up my heart)
(repeat & fade):
I'll keep on holdin' on, oh yes I will, I'll keep on holdin' on
I know that you're the kind of guy, you've got too much pride
You're scared to love someone, run and hide
Each and every day, and each and every way
My love is growin' stronger
And I know that you can't hold on much longer
When there's no place left to hide
I'll still be by your side
'Cause I'll be, waiting, oh yes, sure 'nough
Looking for a chance, a chance to make you mine
I'll keep on holdin' on
I know you're braggin' to your friends that you can't be caught
Baby, you don't know, so it's time that you were taught
So love, you'd better plan to make your final stand
No matter where you run now
I'll hold on till my will to resist is gone
Till I get you where I want you
There, love, I'm gonna want you
Waiting, oh yes, sure 'nough
Looking for a chance, a chance to make you mine
I'll keep on holdin' on, No matter where you run, boy
I'll keep on holdin' on, No matter where you hide, boy
I'll keep on holdin' on, Oh you'll never get away, boy
Here I am, baby
The one who swore to never yield
Here I am, baby
The one who swore to play the field
Said I wouldn't let no man tie me down, not a single one now
Wasn't gonna ever give my heart to a mother's son now
Many a day I proudly stated the man for me ain't been created
But here I am, baby
The one who was so love defiant
Here I am, baby
The one who was so self reliant
Said I wouldn't depend on nothing else, I'll be independent
Make a fortune all my own and I know how to spend it
I'd be so stationary, love would be unnecessary
But here I am
Here I am, baby, baby, baby
You won me and I do concede
Here I am, baby, baby, baby
I find you're what I really need
Said you've got me hanging on a string, don't you let me drop now
Since you started loving me, don't you ever stop now
Don't wanna be loved by another, I ain't going another bother
Here I am baby, baby, baby
Take me 'cause I'm yours alone
Here I am baby, baby, baby
Yours to call your very own
He's a good guy, yes he is
Just as sweet as he can be
And I don't care what the people say
I'm gonna love him come what may
Oh-oh-oh he's a good guy, yes he is
Some girl say he's so bad
Well I can't agree
Cause if he makes her sad
He's still sweet to me
I never saw a guy who was sweeter than my guy
Never saw a guy who was sweeter than he
He's a good guy, yes he is
Just as sweet as he can be
And I don't care what the people say
I'm gonna love him come what may
Oh-oh-oh he's a good guy, yes he is
My folks think he's lazy
But they just don't know him
He works like he's crazy
And one day he'll show them
I never saw a guy as ambitious as my guy
Never saw a guy as ambitious as he
He's a good guy, yes he is
Just as sweet as he can be
And I don't care what the people say
I'm gonna love him come what may
Oh-oh-oh he's a good guy, yes he is
Musical interlude
My friends tell me quit him
But I pay them no mind
I'll always be with him
And he'll treat me so kind
I never saw a guy who's as grateful as my guy
Never saw a guy who's as grateful as he
He's a good guy, yes he is
Just as sweet as he can be
And I don't care what the people say
I'm gonna love him come what may
Oh-oh-oh he's a good guy, yes he is
He's a good guy, yes he is
Darlin' forever, forever
You can break my heart forever,
If you want to
I'll play the part of a fool,
Just to be with you forever
Darlin' forever, forever
You can torment me ,
Take my love for granted,
But I'll always be just a fool,
If I, if I could be with you,
I'll be your slave
for the rest of, of my days
Love you more in so,
so many ways
Just to be with you
Thrills me through and through
And darlin forever, forever
You can torment me,
Take my love for granted,
But i'll always be just a fool,
If I, if I could be with you
Darlin' forever, forever
no matter what you say I do,
I'll always,

Hey, yeah, yeah, yeah

When you give more than you get, you're in danger (you're
in danger)
You may find that you're in love with a stranger (with a
stranger)
For who knows what evil lurks within the hearts of men?
It's vanity, insanity to play when you can't win
When you find that you're losing, it's time to get on
moving
'Cause there's danger: heartbreak dead ahead
It only takes one second, girl, to learn (to learn)
That playing with fire will get you burned (get you
burned)
Now girl, don't you be foolish
They say that love is blind, but it's clear as the
highway sign
That reads "Danger: heartbreak dead ahead"
Heartbreak dead ahead
Read the sign, girl; you'd better mind, girl
Yeah, danger: heartbreak dead ahead
Once the lying starts, start packing up your heart
Listen to me, girl
When there's nothing to be gained, don't keep goin' on in
vain
'Cause there's danger: heartbreak dead ahead
I said there's danger, I said there's danger
