DON'T BOTHER ME

(Harrison)


Since she's been gone
I want no one
To talk to me
It's not the same
But I'm to blame
It's plain to see

So go away
Leave me alone
Don't bother me

I can't believe
That she would leave
Me on my own
It's just not right
When every night
I'm all alone

I've got no time
For you right now
Don't bother me

I know I'll never be the same
If I don't get her back again
Because I know she'll always be
The only girl for me

But 'til she's here
Please don't come near
Just stay away
I'll let you know
When she's come home
Until that day

Don't come around
Leave me alone
Don't bother me

I know I'll never be the same
If I don't get her back again
Because I know she'll always be
The only girl for me

But 'til she's here
Please don't come near
Just stay away
I'll let you know
When she's come home
Until that day

Don't come around
Leave me alone
Don't bother me
Don't bother me
Don't bother me
Don't bother me
Don't bother me

LITTLE CHILD

(Lennon-McCartney)



Little child, little child
Little child, won't you dance with me?
I'm so sad and lonely
Baby take a chance with me

If you want someone
To make you feel so fine
Then we'll have some fun
When you're mine, all mine
So come, come on, come on

Little child, little child
Little child, won't you dance with me
I'm so sad and lonely
Baby take a chance with me

When you're by my side
You're the only one
Don't run and hide
Just come on, come on
So come on, come on, come on

Little child, little child
Little child, won't you dance with me
I'm so sad and lonely
Baby take a chance with me
Oh yeah
Baby take a chance with me
Oh yeah
Baby take a chance with me

'TIL THERE WAS YOU

(Willson)


There were bells on a hill
But I never heard them ringing
No I never heard them at all
'Til there was you

There were birds in the sky
But I never saw them winging
No I never saw them at all
'Til there was you

Then there was music
And wonderful roses
They tell me
In sweet fragrant meadows
Of dawn
And you

There was love all around
But I never heard it singing
No I never heard it at all
'Til there was you

Then there was music
And wonderful roses
They tell me
In sweet fragrant meadows
Of dawn
And you

There was love all around
But I never heard it singing
No I never heard it at all
'Til there was you

'Til there was you

PLEASE MR. POSTMAN

(Dobbin/Garrett/Garman/Brianbert)

Wait!
Oh yes, wait a minute Mr. Postman
Wait!
Wait Mr. Postman

Please Mr. Postman look and see
If there's a letter in your bag for me
I been waiting a long a long time
Since I heard from that girl of mine

There must be some word today
From my girlfriend so far away
Please Mr. Postman look and see
If there's a letter, a letter for me

I been standing here waiting Mr. Postman
So patiently
For just a card or just a letter
Saying she's returning home to me

Please Mr. Postman look and see
If there's a letter in your bag for me
I been waiting a long a long time
Since I heard from that girl of mine

So many days you passed me by
See the tear standing in my eye
You didn't stop to make me feel better
By leaving me a card or a letter

Please Mr. Postman look and see
If there's a letter in your bag for me
I been waiting a long a long time
Since I heard from that girl of mine

You gotta wait a minute, wait a minute
You gotta wait a minute, wait a minute
You gotta wait a minute, wait a minute
You gotta check it and see, one more time for me

You gotta wait a minute, wait a minute
You gotta wait a minute, wait a minute
You gotta wait a minute, wait a minute
Deliver the letter, the sooner the better

You gotta wait a minute, wait a minute
You gotta wait a minute, wait a minute
You gotta wait a minute, wait a minute
You gotta wait a minute, wait a minute

ROLL OVER BEETHOVEN

(Berry)


Well gonna write a little letter
Gonna mail it to my local D.J.
It's a rockin' little record
I want my jockey to play
Roll over Beethoven
Gotta hear it again today

You know my temperature's risin'
And the jukebox's blowin' a fuse
My hearts beatin' rhythm
And my soul keeps singing the blues
Roll over Beethoven
And tell Tchaikovsky the news

I got a rockin' pneumonia
I need a shot of rhythm and blues
I think I got it off the writer
Sittin' down by the rhythm review
Roll over Beethoven
We're rockin' in two by two

Well if you're feelin' like it
Well get your lover
And reel and rock it
Roll it over
And move on up just
A trifle further
and reel and rock it
Roll it over
Roll over Beethoven
We're rockin' in two by two

Well early in the mornin'
I'm a givin' you the warnin'
Don't you step on my blue suede shoes
Hey Diddle Diddle
I'll play my fiddle
Ain't got nothing to lose
Roll over Beethoven
And tell Tchaikovsky the news


You know she winks like a glow worm
Dance like a spinnin' top
She got a crazy partner
Oughta see him reel and rock
Long as she's got a dime
The music will never stop
Roll over Beethoven
Roll over Beethoven
Roll over Beethoven
Roll over Beethoven
Roll over Beethoven
Dig to these rhythm and blues

HOLD ME TIGHT

(Lennon-McCartney)


It feels so right now

Hold me tight
Tell me I'm the only one
And then I might
Never be the lonely one
So hold me tight, tonight, tonight
It's you
You, you, you

Hold me tight
Let me go on loving you
Tonight tonight
Making love to only you
So hold me tight, tonight, tonight
It's you
You, you, you

Don't know
What it means to hold you tight
Being here alone tonight with you
It feels so right now

old me tight
Tell me I'm the only one
And then I might
Never be the lonely one
So hold me tight, tonight, tonight
It's you
You, you, you

Don't know

Being here alone tonight with you
It feels so right now

Hold me tight
Let me go on loving you
Tonight tonight
Making love to only you
So hold me tight, tonight, tonight
It's you
You, you, you

YOU'VE REALLY GOT A HOLD ON ME

(Robinson)

I don't like you
But I love you
Seems that I'm always
Thinking of you
Though you treat me badly
I love you madly
You've really got a hold on me
You've really got a hold on me
Baby

I don't want you
But I need you
Don't want to kiss you
But I need to
Though you do me wrong now
My love is strong now
You've really got a hold on me
You've really got a hold on me
Baby

I love you
And all I want you to do
Is just hold me, hold me
Hold me, hold me

Tighter
Tighter

I want to leave you
Don't want to stay here
Don't want to spend
Another day here
Though I want to split now
I just can quit now
You've really got a hold on me
You've really got a hold on me
Baby

I love you
And all I want you to do
Is just hold me, (please) hold me (squeeze)
Hold me, hold me

You've really got a hold on me
I said you've really got a hold on me

DEVIL IN HER HEART

(Drapkin)

She's got the devil in her heart
But her eyes they tantalize
She's gonna tear your heart apart
Oh her lips they really thrill me

I'll take my chances
for romance is
So important to me
She'll never hurt me
She won't desert me
She's an angel sent to me

She's got the devil in her heart
No, no, this I can't believe
She's gonna tear your heart apart
No, no nay will she deceive

I can't believe that she'll ever ever go
Not when she hugs and says she loves me so
She'll never hurt me
She won't desert me
Listen can't you see

She's got the devil in her heart
Oh, no, no, no, this I can't believe
She's gonna tear your heart apart
No no nay will she deceive

Don't take chances
If your romance is
So important to you
She'll never hurt me
She won't desert me
She's an angel sent to me

She's got the devil in her heart
Oh, no, no, no, no this I can't believe
She's gonna tear your heart apart
No, no nay will she deceive

She's got the devil in her heart
No she's an angel sent to me
She's got the devil in her heart
No she's an angel sent to me

NOT A SECOND TIME

(Lennon-McCartney)


You know you made me cry
I see no use in wondering why
I cried for you

And now, you've changed your mind
I see no reason to change mine
I cried, it's through, oh

You're giving me the same old line
I'm wondering why
You hurt me then, you're back again
No, no, not a second time

You know you made me cry
I see no use in wondering why
I cried for you, yeah

And now, you've changed your mind
I see no reason to change mine
I cried, it's through, oh

You're giving me the same old line
I'm wondering why
You hurt me then, you're back again
No, no, not a second time

Not a second time
Not a second time
No, no, no, no, no
Not a second time
