A Little Bitty Tear
(Cochrane)
A little bitty tear let me down
Spoiled my act as a clown
I had it made up not to make a frown
But a little bitty tear let me down
You said you were leaving tomorrow
That today was our last day
I said there'd be no sorrow
That I'd laugh when you walked away
A little bitty tear let me down
Spoiled my act as a clown
I had it made up not to make a frown
But a little bitty tear let me down
I said I'd laugh when you left me
Pull a funny as you went out the door
That I'd have another one waiting
And I'd wave goodbye as you go
A little bitty tear let me down
Spoiled my act as a clown
I had it made up not to make a frown
But a little bitty tear let me down
Everything went as I planned it
And I really put on quite a show
In my heart I thought I could stand it
'Till you walked with your grip through the door
Then
A little bitty tear let me down
Spoiled my act as a clown
I had it made up not to make a frown
But a little bitty tear let me down
A little bitty tear let me down
A little bitty tear let me down
Down, down, down, down…
All My Sorrows
(Guard / Shane / Reynolds)
Now there's only one thing that money can't buy
True love, that will never die
All my sorrows, soon forgotten
Carefree lovers down country lanes
Don't know my grief, can't feel my pain
All my sorrows, soon forgotten
But it's too late, my love
Too late, but never mind
All my sorrows, soon forgotten
Now there's one more thing that troubles my mind
My love has gone, left me behind
All my sorrows, soon forgotten
But it's too late, my love
Too late, but never mind
All my sorrows, soon forgotten
All my sorrows, soon forgotten
All my sorrows, soon forgotten
All my sorrows, soon forgotten
Are They All Like You?
(Gale)
Why keep me hanging on a string, ring-a-ding-a-ding
Everybody knows but you
Why they should understand
Don't keep me in promise land
Why can't you be true
Are they all like you
Why pretend you're a Lorelei, trapping every guy
Or any man that falls for you
Why can't you understand
A fella's in wonderland
When love is so new
Are they all like you
You know you may think you're being smart, breaking some foolish heart
But you can't fool me
What you've never had you've never missed
And I've not been kissed by you
Why keep me dangling on a string, ring-a-ding-a-ding
Playing hard to get's not new
Wish I could understand
What makes you so on the hand
When I love you so true
Are they all like you
You know you may think you're being smart, breaking some foolish heart
But you can't fool me
What you've never had you've never missed
And I've not been kissed by you
Why keep me dangling on a string, ring-a-ding-a-ding
Playing hard to get's not new
Wish I could understand
What makes you so on the hand
Why can't you be true
When love is so new
When I love you so true
Are they all like you
The Average Life Of A Daily Man
(Marvin)
Drifting along with his head in the clouds
Never had time to get his feet from the ground
Thinks he's got something the world's needing bad
Waits for the real big break that he's never had
He's gone away forever
Can't accept that he will never make it
Just the average life of a daily man
Taking his coffee from people he meets
Smiles at the young girl who will buy him his eats
Tells her he knows that he will make it soon
And when he does, he's gonna buy her the moon
She's gone away forever
Wonder if she knows he'll never make it
Just the average life of a daily man
Now I've got the sense to realise that though he tries with puffed-up lies
To blind the eyes of friends, he's still a would-be
Will never rise to any height, try as he might this world is tight
Don't give no flight on first class seats, the would-be…
He's gone away forever
Can't accept that he will never make it
Just the average life of a daily man
Average life of a daily man
(Yeah, let's hear it now. Two bars in G… )
Baby My Heart
(Curtis)
You gotta baby my heart, take it easy and slow
When the teardrops start, baby you gotta let me know
That you're gonna be my very very own
You gotta baby my heart
You gotta gentle my heart, take it easy and slow
When them teardrops start, you gotta let me know
That you're gonna be my very very own
Baby baby my heart
You gotta gentle my heart, be so gentle and kind
I don't want a broken heart, so baby you gotta make up that mind
That you're gonna be my very very own
You gotta baby my heart
Baby baby my heart, it's that gentleness it needs
I don't want a broken heart, so it's got to be agreed
That you're gonna be my very very own
You gotta baby my heart
Baby baby my heart
Heart…
Ahh…
The Bandit
(Nascimento / Kennedy / Carr)
Ole, I am a bandit
The Bandit of Brazil
I'm the quickest on the trigger
When I shoot, I shoot to kill
I'm a hero down in Rio
Where they talk about me still
Once I robbed a big ranchero
Who was rich beyond compare
And to ransom held his daughter
She was young and she was fair
Away with her I lingered
'Neath blue Brazilian skies
She was sweet and she was tender
There was love light in her eyes
In my arms she soon surrendered
Very much to my surprise
I refused her father's ransom
And I kept the greater prize
Now at night we ride together
'Neath the blue Brazilian sky
Adios, to you, amigos
Adios, I'm on my way
Ole, O'Cangachero
The Bandit of Brazil
Ole, Ole, Ole, Ole…
A Better Man Than I
(Marvin)
How do you feel when your girl just says goodbye
Do you laugh or do you lay right down and cry
Do you let it bother you
Or do you go right out and find somebody new
If you do, you're a better man than I
If you do, you're a better man than I
How do you feel when you find your girl has gone (find she's gone, oh find she's gone)
Do you try to figure out just what went wrong (what went wrong, just what went wrong)
Do you sit around and mope
Or do you walk right on with your head up high and hope
If you do, you're a better man than I
If you do, you're a better man than I
My girl left me this morning
She didn't even say goodbye
My world's falling all around me
I can't see the pain for the tears in my eyes
How do you feel when your girl just says goodbye (says goodbye, just says goodbye)
Do you laugh or do you lay right down and cry (down and cry, right down and cry)
Do you let it bother you
Or do you go right out and find somebody new
If you do, you're a better man than I
If you do, you're a better man than I
A better, a better, a better man than I
A better, a better, a better man than I
Do you let it bother you
Or do you go right out and find somebody new
If you do, if you do, if you do…
Bo Diddley
(McDaniels)
Bo Diddley, Bo Diddley, where you been
I've been to buy me a diamond ring
And if that diamond ring don't shine
I'm gonna take it to a private eye
And if that private eye can't see
Why he'd better not take that ring from me
Bo Diddley worked for a nanny goat
That's to make my baby a Sunday coat
Why did you get that big bear cat
To make my baby a Sunday hat
Won't you come to my house and rag that bone
Take my baby all away from home
Look Bo Diddley, where you been
Well, I've been up to to your house and gone again
Bo Diddley, Bo Diddley, have you heard
My pretty baby said she was a bird
My pretty baby said she was a bird
My pretty baby said she was a bird
The Day I Met Marie
(Marvin)
Imagine a still summer's day
When nothing is moving, least of all me
I lay on my back in the hay
The warm sun was soothing
It made me feel good
The day I met Marie
The sound of a whispered hello
Came tiptoeing softly into my head
I opened my eyes kinda slow
And there she was smiling
It made me feel good
The day I met
Marie
With her laughing eyes
She tossed her hair and tantalized
She came, she touched me, then she'd gone
Just like a summer breeze
I remember her kiss
So soft on my brow
And the way that she said
Baby, go to sleep now
Baby, go to sleep now
I awoke with a chill in the air
The warm sun no longer hung in the sky
I reached out but she was not there
She'd gone where she came from
But I still feel good
To think I've known
Marie
With her laughing eyes
She tossed her hair and tantalized
She came, she touched me, then she'd gone
Just like a summer breeze
Dear Old Mrs. Bell
(Bryant)
On her mantelpiece a photograph or two
She gets letters but they're far between and few
She enjoys her little visits to the zoo
Must be difficult to find enough to do
Dear old Mrs. Bell
Everybody knows her well
Never did nobody any wrong
Kids have always called her ding dong, ding dong
Ding dong
Since Mr. Bell passed away
She spends her day
Feeding birds from her hand
Says the birds understand
She will tell you of the days when she was young
It was then upon the stage she danced and sung
Onto to all her precious memories she hung
It's her memories she likes to be among
Dear old Mrs. Bell
Everybody knows her well
Never did nobody any wrong
Kids have always called her ding dong, ding dong
Ding dong
Dear old Mrs. Bell
Mrs. Bell, Mrs. Bell, Mrs. Bell…
Don't Be A Fool (With Love)
(Chester)
Don't be a fool where love is concerned
Don't be a fool, that much I've learned
True love only knocks once on your door
It doesn't come back to make sure
So don't, don't be a fool, with love, with love
I know it's tough when you're not sure
But if it's real you couldn't ask for more
You'll go through life without any fun
You need that girl, that special one
So don't, don't be a fool, with love, with love
Take this tip my friend and use your chance
Don't look back on the end at that
Just you and your girl in heaven above
Gazing at the stars that lie above
So don't, don't be a fool, with love
So don't, don't be a fool, with love
With love
Don't It Make You Feel Good
(Marvin / Welch)
You're sitting sipping coffee and your girl walks in
Don't it make you feel good
You go to a dance and the music swings
The band keeps a-playing and the singer sings
Don't it make you feel good
Don't it make you feel good
Your legs are moving any time the music plays
Don't it make you feel good
You just keep dancing every chance you get
The band keeps playing, they aren't stoppin' yet
Don't it make you feel good
Don't it make you feel good
To dance and sing with your girl by your side
Instead of sitting home by the fireside
Don't it make you feel good
Don't it make you feel good
To dance and sing with your girl by your side
Instead of sitting home by the fireside
Your legs are moving any time the music plays
Don't it make you feel good
You just keep dancing every chance you get
The band keeps playing, they aren't stoppin' yet
Don't it make you feel good
Don't it make you feel good
To dance and sing with your girl by your side
Instead of sitting home by the fireside
Don't Make My Baby Blue
(Mann / Weil)
I know that I can't keep her
Now she's in love with you
But I just wanna say
I won't be far away
So don't make my baby blue
I know your reputation
They say you can't be true
But I'll be standing by
So you just better try
And don't make my baby blue
That little girl's an angel
And it hurts me to set her free
So you'd better take good care of her
'Cause she still means the world to me
I'm gonna step aside now
Just like she wants me to
But even though I'm gone
I'll still be looking on
So don't make my baby blue
But even though I'm gone
I'll still be looking on
So don't make my baby blue
Don't make my baby blue
Don't make my baby blue
The Dreams I Dream
(Marvin)
My bird has lost its song
My right has turned to wrong
The dreams I dream mean nothing now
The life I knew before
Has crumbled to the floor
The dreams I dream mean nothing now
It's no use telling me she was a no-good
That she had me hung on a string
When I was with her, she made me feel so good
She loved me and I was a king
She loved me and I was a king
The dreams I dream mean nothing now
It's no use telling me she was a no-good
That she had me hung on a string
When I was with her she made me feel so good
She loved me and I was a king
She loved me and I was a king
The life I knew before
Has crumbled to the floor
The dreams I dream mean nothing now
The dreams I dream mean nothing now
The dreams I dream mean nothing now
Feelin' Fine
(Samwell)
Mmmm…
Feelin' fine, I stole a kiss
Feelin' fine, a pretty miss
Gave it back and so I'm feelin' fine
Asking you about a date
Asking you not to be late
Or I'll be no longer asking you
I stole a little kiss and now I'm feelin' fine
I asked about a date
I asked my little darling, someone said
That I am tempting fate
Don't you know that I'm in love
Don't you know the stars above
All agree that you were meant for me
I stole a little kiss and now I'm feelin' fine
I asked about a date
I asked my little darling, someone said
That I am tempting fate
Don't you know that I'm in love
Don't you know the stars above
All agree that you were meant for me
Feelin' fine, now you're my girl
Feelin' fine, my head's a whirl
You're the reason that I'm feelin' fine
You're the reason that I'm feelin' fine
You're the reason that I'm feelin' fine
Five Hundred Miles
(West)
If you miss the train I'm on
Then you know that I have gone
You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles
A hundred miles, a hundred miles
A hundred miles, a hundred miles
You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles
Lord, I'm one, Lord, I'm two
Lord, I'm three, Lord, I'm four
Lord, I'm five hundred miles away from home
Got no shirt upon my back
Not a penny to my name
Lord, I can't go back home this a-way
If you miss the train I'm on
Then you know that I have gone
You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles
Girl From Ipanema
(Jobin / Gimbel / DeMoraes)
Tall and tan and young and lovely
The girl from Ipanema goes walking
And when she passes, each one she passes
Goes ahh
When she walks she's like a samba
That swings so cool and sways so gentle
That when she passes, each one she passes
Goes ahh
Oh, but I watch her so sadly
How can I tell her I love her
Yes, I would give my heart gladly
But each day when she walks to the sea
She looks straight ahead not at me
Tall and tan and young and lovely
The girl from Ipanema goes walking
And when she passes, I smile
But she doesn't see
She just doesn't see
She just doesn't see
She just doesn't see…
Here I Go Again
(Marvin / Welch)
Well I know I said this was the end
That from now on we'd just be friends
But then you put your spell on me
And the magic's working, I can't see
And baby you know
I can't let you go
There's nothing else I can do
Here I go again, loving you, loving you, loving you
Here I go again, loving you, loving you, loving you
I had fooled myself that I was strong
But now I guess you've proved me wrong
For here I am again with you
Doing all the things I shouldn't do
And baby you know
I can't let you go
There's nothing else I can do
Here I go again, loving you, loving you, loving you
Here I go again, loving you, loving you, loving you
Here I go again, loving you, loving you, loving you
Here I go again, loving you, loving you, loving you
I Can't Forget
(Mizicke / Morpar / Perfiljeva / Black)
Although a year has gone
The hurt goes on
I can't forget
A year of unseen tears
And silent fears
I can't forget
I don't want to forget
How we laughed not so long ago
How we dreamed constantly each night
Of a world, that we would never know
Tell me how to forget
When we ran through summer rain
Tell me how I can wash away
Yesterday, and live again
They say that time will heal
Yet still I feel
I can't forget, I can't forget
I don't want to forget
How we laughed not so long ago
How we dreamed constantly each night
Of a world, that we would never know
Tell me how to forget
When we ran through summer rain
Tell me how I can wash away
Yesterday, and live again
Each dawn, with sleepless eyes
I realize
I can't forget
Her love, I'll take with me
Into the sea
Into the sea
I Met A Girl
(Marvin)
I met a girl once, I thought she was the girl for me
I was so taken by her personality
I met a girl once who took my heart and love away
She looked an angel's vision walking through the day
I took her to parties
Bought her everything I could
I treated her just like a queen
I told her I loved her, marry her I said I would
Didn't realise just what a fool I'd been
I met a girl once, she did me wrong behind my back
Then when I found out, I felt like my heart would crack
I met a girl once, she taught me what I had to learn
That if love's cruel, well broken hearts are what you'll earn
I took her to parties
Bought her everything I could
I treated her just like a queen
I told her I loved her, marry her I said I would
Didn't realise just what a fool I'd been
I met a girl once, she did me wrong behind my back
Then when I found out, I felt like my heart would crack
I met a girl once, she taught me what I had to learn
That if love's cruel, well broken hearts are what you'll earn
I Only Want To Be With You
(Marvin / Welch / Rostill / Bennett)
I do what I want 'cause I'm free
No chains of love to tie me
I'm only foolin' myself, it's true
Deep inside I only want to be with you
They say love's a game after all
Those who don't play never fall
Right up till now this I thought was true
Now I find I only want to be with you
What's the use pretending
I can see that you are lending
Not one ear to anything I have to say
You want me to own up
That you've really got me sewn up
Well I will, so now I've left you've got your way
Yes you cast your spell over me
My heart is no longer free
From this day on life begins anew
I can't deny I only want to be with you
I Want You To Want Me
(Marvin)
Any time you're feeling low
And you've got no place to go
Come 'round to my house and I'll be there
To take away your worries, take away your cares
'Cause you know, you know, you know I want you to want me
Any time you're feeling blue, you can see what I can do
Give me the chance to show you I care
To take away your sorrows, give a love to share
'Cause you know, you know, you know I want you to want me
Loving you is what I think of through the night and day
Wanting you is my obsession, only you can show me the way
Any time you're feeling low
And you've got no place to go
Come 'round to my house and I'll be there
To take away your worries, take away your cares
'Cause you know, you know, you know I want you to want me
Loving you is what I think of through the night and day
Wanting you is my obsession, only you can show me the way
Any time you're feeling blue, you can see what I can do
Give me the chance to show you I care
To take away your sorrows, give a love to share
'Cause you know, you know, you know I want you to want me
You know, you know, you know I want you to want me
You know, you know, you know I want you to want me
In The Past
(Cahill)
Because I love her so
She means to me
More than she'll ever know
More than she'll see
Things that have happened
In the past make me cry
Things that have happened
Now and then
She is a precious one
To me, I know
Her hair like golden sun
Her eyes they glow
Things that have happened
In the past make me cry
Things that have happened
Now and then
So if you see me sigh
Or stop to cry
Then darling you'll, you'll know why
And when I look at her
She fills my eyes
But just to see her there
I visualize
Things that have happened
In the past make me cry
Things that have happened
Now and then
Leave My Woman Alone
(Charles)
Well, if you don't want, you don't have to get into trouble
If you don't want, you don't have to get into trouble
If you don't want, you don't have to get into trouble
You just leave my woman alone
Well, I know you are a playboy
And you've got women all over town
But if I ever see you sweet talk my little girl
I'm gonna break your body down
Well, if you don't want, you don't have to get into trouble
If you don't want, you don't have to get into trouble
If you don't want, you don't have to get into trouble
You just leave my woman alone
Well, I know you've got some money
And you got a brand new '66 too
But if I ever see my little girl in your new car
I'm gonna do some work on you
Well, if you don't want, you don't have to get into trouble
If you don't want, you don't have to get into trouble
If you don't want, you don't have to get into trouble
You just leave my woman alone
I don't believe in trouble
And I don't wanna start a fight
So if you take heed and stay away from my little girl
Then everything will be alright
Well, if you don't want, you don't have to get into trouble
If you don't want, you don't have to get into trouble
If you don't want, you don't have to get into trouble
You just leave my woman alone
Leave my woman alone
Leave my woman alone
Let It Be Me
(Bécaud / Curtis / Delanoe)
I bless the day I found you
I want to stay around you
And so I beg you
Let it be me
Don't take this heaven from one
If you must cling to someone
Now and forever
Let it be me
Each time we meet, love
I find complete love
Without your sweet love
What would life be
So never leave me lonely
Tell me you love me only
And that you'll always
Let it be me
Each time we meet, love
I find complete love
Without your sweet love
What would life be
If for each bit of gladness
Someone must taste of sadness
I'll bear the sorrow
Let it be me
Let it be me
Let it be me
Let Me Take You There
(Bennett / Rostill)
Let me pick you pretty flowers
Flowers for your pretty hair
Let me show you happiness
Let me take you there
Let me show you coloured skies
Skies are made of rainbows grey
Leave the troubled world behind
Come and live my way

Lonesome Fella
(Chester)
Dom doobee dom dom dom
Dom doobee dom dom dom
Dom doobee dom dom dom
Lonesome fella, lonesome and so blue
Lonesome fella, all on account of you
Lonesome fella, walking around all alone
(All alone, walking alone)
Lonesome fella, why did you treat me so
Lonesome fella, I don't know where to go
Lonesome fella, walking around all alone

Lonesome fella, and now you've got to pay
Lonesome fella, walking around all alone

Mary Anne
(Lordan)
Every day now seems endless
How slow the moments go, but how fast they'll fly
The next time I see Mary Anne
All my sorrows soon will leave me
Then this sad old world will seem like new
The next time I see Mary Anne
Mary Anne, there are no words that I could say
No way to tell her what it means to me
To see her face again
In the sunlight, I'll kiss her
Married we will be
My baby and me
The next time I see Mary Anne
The next time I see Mary Anne
Mary Anne

Me oh my
He's such a lucky guy
Got no worries, got no cares
He won't get those old grey hairs
Here's the reason why
He's such a lucky guy
Me oh my
He never tells a lie
Everybody big or small
He don't care, he loves them all
Let us tell you why
He's such a lucky, lucky guy
Got no money, never had any
Doesn't worry him at all
He keeps singing, ring-a-ding-dinging
Life to him is just a ball
Me oh my
Some people wonder why
He's never seen without a smile
They should know it, that's his style
Here's the reason why
He's such a lucky, lucky guy
Got no money, never had any

He's never seen without a smile
They should know it, that's his style
Here's the reason why
He's such a lucky, lucky guy
My Way
(Marvin / Welch / Bennett / Rostill)
There's no use in taking
My advice for making
Love, unless you're moving my way
Things aren't bad as they seem
What you need's a daydream
Baby, keep on moving my way
My way is to kiss away
The tears that sometimes fall
His way is to cover up
The writing on the wall
I've been waiting for you
Ever since I saw you
Baby, won't you try it my way
My way is to kiss away
The tears that sometimes fall
His way is to cover up
The writing on the wall
You don't need a reason
Just come to me please and
We'll find satisfaction my way
One Way To Love
(Arnold / Martin / Morrow)
There is only one way to love…
I found you crying when we met tonight
Oh, please believe the things I want to say
One way to love, one way to love
And now, I'll show you how
I know somebody didn't treat you right
But I'm the one to take your tears away
One way to love, one way to love
And now, I'll show you how
You've been looking everywhere for someone who will really care for you
You must love with all your heart or not at all, that's what you've gotta do
One way to love, one way to love
And now, I'll show you how
One way to love, one way to love
And now, I'll show you how
There is only one way to love…
Running Out Of World
(Bogliuni / Black)
Nowhere left for me to try now
Nowhere left for me to fly now
I've searched all over to find love
It seems as though I'm running out of world
I've sailed across the oceans and I've flown the skies
Said a hundred hellos and as many goodbyes
I've seen the wonders of the earth through lonely eyes
Seems as though I'm running out of world
I search for loving all over
I've looked from Dallas to Dover
Don't know where else I can run to
It seems as though I'm running out of world
I've sailed across the oceans and I've flown the skies
Said a hundred hellos and as many goodbyes
I've seen the wonders of the earth through lonely eyes
Seems as though I'm running out of world
I've sailed across the oceans and I've flown the skies
Said a hundred hellos and as many goodbyes
I've seen the wonders of the earth through lonely eyes
Seems as though I'm running out of world
San Francisco
(Phillips)
If you're going to San Francisco
Be sure to wear some flowers in your hair
If you're going to San Francisco
You're gonna meet some gentle people there
For those who come to San Francisco
Summertime will be a love-in there
In the streets of San Francisco
Gentle people with flowers in their hair
All across the nation, such a strange vibration
People in motion
There's a whole generation, with a new explanation
People in motion, people in motion
For those who come to San Francisco
Be sure to wear some flowers in your hair
If you come to San Francisco
Summertime will be a love-in there
Saturday Dance
(Chester / Marvin)
Come on baby give me a chance
Let's go to the Saturday dance
If we start now, we won't be late
'Cause the dance don't start till round about eight
What do you mean you're going to bed
Come to the dance with me instead
Go upstairs and put your glad rags on
And join me hon and we'll have some fun
Jump into my hot rod car, drive away your frown
Then we'll jive, become alive, and really do the town
What do you mean you're going to bed
Come to the dance with me instead
Go upstairs, put your glad rags on
And join me hon and we'll have some fun
Jump into my hot rod car, drive away your frown
Then we'll jive, become alive, and really do the town
Come on baby give me a chance
Let's go to the Saturday dance
If we start now, we won't be late
'Cause the dance don't start 'till round about eight
Stay Around
(Arnold / Martin / Morrow)
I saw you, and I fell for you
And I hoped you felt the same
I asked you as I passed you
Just to tell me what's your name
And when you smiled at me
I knew how it would be
I hardly could believe all the good things I had found
I want you, won't you stay around
We had one kiss, only one kiss
Then you told me it's goodbye
I reckoned for a second
I saw love light in your eyes
I found it hard to see
Just why if you loved me
You'd send the dreams I had all tumbling to the ground
I want you, won't you stay around
You should've told me all about him
Right from the minute that we met
I beg you, try to do without him
And I will teach you to forget
I know you want to go to
Someone else now, it's so sad
Tomorrow will bring sorrow
And without you I'll feel bad
But if one day you'll find
That he is not your kind
Remember I love you and I won't be leaving town
I want you, and I'll stay around
That's My Desire
(Kresa / Loveday)
To spend one night with you
In our old rendezvous
And reminisce with you
That's my desire
Where gypsies play
Down in that dim cafe
And dance till break of day
That's my desire
To sip a little glass of wine
And gaze into your eyes divine
I'll feel the touch of your lips
Pressing on mine
To hear you whisper low
Just when it's time to go
"Cheri, I love you so"
That's my desire
Cheri, Cheri, oh, oh
Desire, desire, oh, oh
That's my desire
That's The Way It Goes
(Welch / Marvin)
Dum dum dum-ee-doo dum-ee-doo,
And that's the way it goes
Met her in the park last fall
I heard Cupid start to call
But no chance, no chance at all
And, that's the way it goes, yeah
That's the way it goes
Dum-ee-doo dum-ee-doo
Every time I see her there
I just gotta stop and stare
But I know that she don't care
And, that's the way it goes, yeah
That's the way it goes
Dum-ee-doo dum-ee-doo
And that's the way it goes
Fairy tales can happen
Why don't they happen to me
I thought I'd found my love
But how wrong, how wrong can you be
I think I'll put my love away
Save it for a rainy day
Save it for someone who'll stay
And, that's the way it goes, yeah
That's the way it goes
Dum-ee-doo dum-ee-doo
Dum dum dum-ee-doo dum-ee-doo
Dum dum dum-ee-doo dum-ee-doo
And that's the way it goes
This Hammer
(Traditional, arranged by Welch / Marvin / Bennett / Locking)
Take this hammer
Carry it to the captain
Take this hammer
Carry it to the captain
Take this hammer
Carry it to the captain
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Yeah, tell him I'm gone
You can tell him I'm gone
Take this hammer
She looks like silver
Take this hammer
She looks like silver
Take this hammer
She looks like silver
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Yeah, she feels like gold
She feels like gold
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Yeah, she feels like gold
She feels like gold
Trying To Forget The One You Love
(Marvin)
You're trying to forget the one you love
Tears fill your eyes, your head hangs down
Can't seem to think, your mind's going round
You're trying to forget the one you love
Please stop the world, you've had too much
Your love is gone but leaves her touch
You're trying to forget the one you love
You're trying to forget the one you love
You can't reveal how much you really love her
You can't allow the world to know you do
Because you hear the kind words of the world change
To a laugh, and they're laughing at you
Deep down inside, you hear her voice
Too late you know, you've made your choice
You're trying to forget the one you love
You're trying to forget the one you love
You're trying to forget the one you love
Will You Be There
(Marvin / Welch)
I'm on my way home to you
Travelling as fast as I can
Running like I never ran
When I get home, will you be there
When I get home, will you be there
Sitting and waiting for me
Pretty as pretty can be
When I get home, will you be there
When at last I hold you
It'll be just like I told you
There'll be happiness we've never known before
Such a lot to make up
What a time it's gonna take up
So please be waiting for me at the door
I'm on my way home to you
Travelling as fast as I can
Running like I never ran
When I get home, will you be there
When at last I hold you
It'll be just like I told you
There'll be happiness we've never known before
Such a lot to make up
What a time it's gonna take up
So please be waiting for me at the door
When I get home will you be there
Sitting and waiting for me
Pretty as pretty can be
When I get home, will you be there
Will you be there
