Bette Davis Eyes

Her hair is Harlow gold, her lips sweet surprise
Her hands are never cold, she's got Better Davis eyes

She'll turn the music on you, you won't have to think twice
She's pure as New York snow, she got Bette Davis eyes

And she'll tease you, she'll unease you
All the better just to please you
She's precocious, and she knows just
What it takes to make a pro blush
She got Greta Garbo's standoff sighs, she's got Bette Davis eyes
She'll let you take her home, it works her appetite
She'll lay you on the throne, she got Bette Davis eyes

She'll take a tumble on you, roll you like you were dice
Until you come out blue, she's got Bette Davis eyes
She'll expose you, when she snows you
Hope you're pleased with the crumbs she throws you
She's ferocious and she knows just
What it takes to make a pro blush
All the boys think she's a spy, she's got Bette Davis eyes

And she'll tease you, she'll unease you
All the better just to please you
She's precocious, and she knows just
What it takes to make a pro blush
All the boys think she's a spy, she's got Bette Davis eyes...

Blue Eyes Crying In The Rain

In the twilight glow I see you
Blue eyes cryin' in the rain
When we kissed goodbye and parted
I knew we'd never meet again
Love is like a dying amber
And only memories remain
And through the ages I remember
Blue eyes cryin' in the rain
Blue eyes cryin' in the rain

Someday, when we meet up yonder
We'll stroll hand in hand again
In a land that knows no parting
Blue eyes cryin' in the rain

Love is like a dying amber
And only memories remain
And through the ages I remember
Blue eyes cryin' in the rain
Blue eyes cryin' in the rain

Chantilly Lace

Hello, baby
Yeah, this is The Big Bopper speakin'
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha - oh, you sweet thing!
Do I what? Will I what?
Oh, baby you know what I like.

Chantilly Lace and a pretty face
And a ponytail hangin down,
A wiggle in her walk and a giggle in her talk,
Made the world go 'round.
Ain't nothing in the world like a big eyed girl
To make me act so funny, make me spend my money.
Make me feel real loose like a long necked goose,
Like a girl - ah baby that's what I like!

What's that baby?
But - but - but - oh, honey
But - oh baby you know what I like

[repeat]

What's that honey
Pick you up at eight? And dont be late?
But baby I ain't got no money honey
Ha ha ha ha ha oh all right honey, you know what I like

Dancing Queen

You can dance, you can jive, having the time of your life
See that girl, watch that scene, dig in the Dancing Queen

Friday night and the lights are low
Looking out for the place to go
Where they play the right music, getting in the swing
You come in to look for a King
Anybody could be that guy
Night is young and the music's high
With a bit of rock music, everything is fine
You're in the mood for a dance
And when you get the chance...

You are the Dancing Queen, young and sweet, only seventeen
Dancing Queen, feel the beat from the tambourine
You can dance, you can jive, having the time of your life
See that girl, watch that scene, dig in the Dancing Queen

You're a teaser, you turn 'em on
Leave them burning and then you're gone
Looking out for another, anyone will do
You're in the mood for a dance
And when you get the chance...

You are the Dancing Queen, young and sweet, only seventeen
Dancing Queen, feel the beat from the tambourine
You can dance, you can jive, having the time of your life
See that girl, watch that scene, dig in the Dancing Queen

Down On The Corner

Early in the evenin' just about supper time,
Over by the courthouse they're starting to unwind.
Four kids on the corner trying to bring you up.
Willy picks a tune out and he blows it on the harp.

Down On The Corner, out in the street,
Willy and the Poorboys are playin'
Bring a nickel, tap your feet.

Rooster hits the washboard and people just got to smile,
Blinky, thumps the gut bass and solos for a while.
Poorboy twangs the rhythm out on his kalamazoo.
Willy goes into a dance and doubles on kazoo.

[repeat]

[repeat]

You don't need a penny just to hang around,
But if you've got a nickel, won't you lay your money down?
Over on the corner there's a happy noise.
People come from all around to watch the magic boy.

Do You Think I'm Sexy

Sugar, sugar
She sits alone waiting for suggestions
He's so nervous avoiding all the questions
His lips are dry, her heart is gently pounding
Don't you just know exactly what they're thinking

If you want my body and you think I'm sexy
Come on sugar let me know.
If you really need me
Just reach out and touch meCcome on honey tell me so
Tell me so baby

He's acting shy looking for an answer
Come on honey let's spend the night together
Now hold on a minute before we go much further
Give me a dime so I can phone my mother
They catch a cab to his high rise apartment
At last he can tell her exactly what his heart meant

If you want my body and you think I'm sexy
Come on honey tell me so
If you really need me just reach out and touch me
Come on sugar let me know

His heart's beating like a drum
'Cos at last he's got this girl home
Relax baby now we are alone

They wake at dawn 'cos all the birds are singing
Two total strangers but that ain't what they're thinking
Outside it's cold, misty and it's raining
They got each other neither one's complaining
He says I sorry but I'm out of milk and coffee
Never mind sugar we can watch the early movie

If you want my body and you think I'm sexy
Come on sugar let me know
If you really need me just reach out and touch me
Come on honey tell me so
If you really need me just reach out and touch me
Come on sugar let me know
If you really, really, really, really need me
Just let me know
Just reach out and touch me
If you really want me
Just reach out and touch me
come on sugar let me know
If you really need me just reach out and touch me
Come on sugar let me know
If you, if you, if you really need me
Just come on and tell me so

Endless Love

My love, there's only you in my life,
The only thing that's right.
My first love, you're every breath that I take,
You're every step I make.
And I, I want to share, all my love with you,
No one else will do.
And your eyes, they tell me how much you care.
Oh yes, you will always be, my endless love.

Two hearts, two hearts that beat as one.
Our lives have just begun.
Forever, I'll hold you close in my arms,
I can't resist your charm.
My love, I'll be a fool, for you I'm sure,
You know I don't mind.
Cause you, you mean the world to me.
Oh, I know I've found in you, my endless love.

And love, I'll be that fool, for you, I'm sure.
You know I don't mind.
And yes, you'll be the only one.
Cause no one can deny,
This love I have its fine.
I'll give it all to you,
My love, my love, my endless love.

Achy Breaky Heart

You can tell the world you never was my girl
You can burn my clothes up when I'm gone
You can tell your friends just what a fool I've been
And laugh and joke about me on the phone
You can tell my arms go back to the farm
You can tell my feet to hit the floor
Or you can tell my lips to tell my fingertips
They won't be reaching out for you no more

(Chorus)

But don't tell my heart
My achy breaky heart
I just don't think he'd understand
And if you tell my heart
My achy breaky heart
He might blow up and kill this man

You can tell your Ma I moved to Arkansas
You can tell your dog to bite my leg
Or tell your brother Cliff whose fist can tell my lip
He never really liked me anyway

Or tell your Aunt Louise, tell anything you please
Myself already knows I'm not O.K.
Or you can tell my eyes to watch out for my mind
It might be walking out on me today

Ain't No Mountain High Enough

If you need me, call me. No matter where you are, no matter how
far. Just call my name. I'll be there in a hurry. On that you can
depend and never worry.

You see, my love is alive It's like a seed that only needs the
thought of you to grow. So if you feel the need for company,
please, my darling, let it be me. I may not be able to express
the depth of the love I feel for you, but a writer put it very
nicely when he was away from the one he loved. He sat down and
wrote these words

No wind, (No wind) no rain, (no rain)
Nor winter's cold
Can stop me, babe (oh, babe) baby (baby)
If you're my goal

No wind, no rain,
Can stop me, babe
If you wanna go

I know, I know you must follow the sun
Wherever it leads
But remember
If you should fall short of your desires
Remember life holds for you one guarantee
You'll always have me

And if you should miss my love
One of these old days
If you should ever miss the arms
That used to hold you so close, or the lips
That used to touch you so tenderly
Just remember what I told you
The day I set you free

Ain't no mountain high enough
Ain't no valley low enough (Say it again)
Ain't no river wild enough
To keep me from you

Ain't no mountain high enough
Ain't no valley low enough (Say it again)
Ain't no river wild enough

Nothing can keep me
To keep me from you

And turned cartwheels across the floor
Yeah, I was feeling kind of seasick
But the crowd called out for more, yeah, oh yeah

We called out for another drink, oh yeah

As the miller told his tale
That her face at first just ghostly
Turned a whiter shade of pale

She said there is no reason
And the truth is plain to see
But I wandered through my playing cards
And I would not let her be, oh, oh yeah
One of sixteen vestal virgins
Who were leaving for the coast

Because You Loved Me

For all those times you stood by me
For all the truth that you made me see
For all the joy you brought to my life
For all the wrong that you made right
For every dream you made come true
For all the love I found in you
I'll be forever thankful baby
You're the one who held me up
Never let me fall
You're the one who saw me through through it all

You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best there was in me
Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith 'coz you believed
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me

You gave me wings and made me fly
You touched my hand I could touch the sky
I lost my faith, you gave it back to me
You said no star was out of reach
You stood by me and I stood tall
I had your love I had it all
I'm grateful for each day you gave me
Maybe I don't know that much
But I know this much is true
I was blessed because I was loved by you

You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best there was in me
Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith 'coz you believed
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me

You were always there for me
The tender wind that carried me
A light in the dark shining your love into my life
You've been my inspiration
Through the lies you were the truth
My world is a better place because of you

You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best there was in me
Lifted me up when I couldn't reach

Behind Closed Doors

My baby makes me proud, Lord don't she make me proud
She never makes a scene by hanging all over me in a crowd
'Cause people like to talk, Lord, how they love to talk
But when they turn out the lights, I know she'll be leaving with me

CHORUS: And when we get behind closed doors
Then she lets her hair hang down
And she makes me glad I'm a man
Oh no one knows what goes on behind closed doors.
My, behind closed doors.

My baby makes me smile, Lord don't she make me smile
She's never too far away or too tired to say "I want you"
She's always a lady, just like a lady should be
But when they turn out the lights, she's still a baby to me.

Burning Bridges

(Burning bridges behind me) all I want is to forget you somehow
Found some letters you wrote me this morning
And they told of a love we once knew
Now they're gone I'd burned them to ashes
Don't want nothing that reminds me of you
Burning bridges behind me it's too late to turn back now
Burning bridges behind me all I want is to forget you somehow

Sold the house we once planned together
And said goodbye to folks we once knew
Then I moved to the faraway city trying hard to forget about you
Burning bridges behind me...

Chatahoochie

Well way down yonder on the chatahoochie,
It gets hotter than a hoochie coochie
We layed rubber on a georia asphalt,
Gotta little crazy but we never got caught
Down by the river on a friday night,
Pyramid of cans in the pale moonlight
Talkin' 'bout cars and dreamin' 'bout women,
Never hadda plan justa livin' for the minute

Well a way down yonder on the chatahoochie,
Never knew how much that muddy water meant to me
But I learned how to swim,
And I learnt who I was
Alotta 'bout livin' and a little bout love

AwwHaa

Well we fogged up the windows in my old Chevy,
I was willin',
But she wasn't ready
So I settled for a burger and a grape snowcone,
Dropped her off early, but I didn't go home

Down by the river on a friday night,
A pyramid of cans in the pale moonlight
Talkin' 'bout cars and dreamin' 'bout women,
Never hadda plan justa livin' for the minute

Well a way down yonder on the chatahoochie,
Never knew how much that muddy water meant to me
But I learned how to swim,
And I learnt who I was.
Alotta 'bout livin' and a little 'bout love

Well a way down yonder on the chatahoochie

It gets hotter than a hoochie coochie.

Crying in the Chapel

You saw me crying in the chapel
The tears I shed were tears of joy
I know the meaning of contentment
I am happy with the Lord

Just a plain and simple chapel
Where all good people go to pray
I prayed the Lord that I'll grow stronger
As I live from day to day

I searched and I searched but I couldn't find
No way on earth to find peace of mind

Now I'm happy in the chapel
Where people are of one accord
Yes, we gather in the chapel
Just to sing and praise the Lord

You'll search and you'll search but you'll never find
No way on earth to find peace of mind

Take your troubles to the chapel
Get down on your knees and pray
Then your burdens will be lighter
And you'll surely find a way

Crystal Chandelier

Oh, the crystal chandeliers light up the paintings on your walls
the marble statuettes are standing stately in the hall
but will the timely crowd that has you laughing loud
help you dry your tears when the new wears off of your crystal chandeliers.

I never did fit in to well with the folks you knew
and it's plain to see that the likes of me don't fit with you
so you traded me for the gaiety of the well to do
and you turned away from the love I offered you

Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith 'coz you believed
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me

You were always there for me
The tender wind that carried me
A light in the dark shining your love into my life
You've been my inspiration
Through the lies you were the truth
My world is a better place because of you

You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best there was in me
Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith 'coz you believed
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me

I'm everything I am
Because you loved me

Behind Closed Doors

My baby makes me proud, Lord don't she make me proud
She never makes a scene by hanging all over me in a crowd
'Cause people like to talk, Lord, how they love to talk
But when they turn out the lights, I know she'll be leaving with me

CHORUS: And when we get behind closed doors
Then she lets her hair hang down
And she makes me glad I'm a man
Oh no one knows what goes on behind closed doors.
My, behind closed doors.

My baby makes me smile, Lord don't she make me smile
She's never too far away or too tired to say "I want you"
She's always a lady, just like a lady should be
But when they turn out the lights, she's still a baby to me.

Repeat chorus

Blue

Blue oh, so lonesome for you
why can't you be blue over me
blue
oh, so lonesome for you
tears fill my eyes till I can't see
3 o'clock in the morning
here am I
sittin' here so lonely
so lonesome I could cry
blue
oh, so lonesome for you
why can't you be blue over me
blue
oh, so lonesome for you
tears fill my eyes till I can't see
now that it's over
I realized
those quick words you whispered where nothin' but lies
blue oh, so lonesome for you why can't you be blue over me
why can't you be blue over me

Burning Bridges

(Burning bridges behind me) all I want is to forget you somehow
Found some letters you wrote me this morning
And they told of a love we once knew
Now they're gone I'd burned them to ashes
Don't want nothing that reminds me of you
Burning bridges behind me it's too late to turn back now
Burning bridges behind me all I want is to forget you somehow

Sold the house we once planned together
And said goodbye to folks we once knew
Then I moved to the faraway city trying hard to forget about you
Burning bridges behind me...

Charlie Brown

Fe fe fi fi fo fo fum
I smell smoke in the auditorium

(chorus:

Charlie Brown, Charlie Brown
He's a clown, that Charlie Brown
He's gonna get caught; just you wait and see
(Why's everybody always pickin' on me?)

That's him on his knees, I know that's him
Yellin' 7 come 11 down in the boys' gym

(chorus)

Who's always writing on the wall?
Who's always goofin' in the hall?
Who's always throwin' spit balls?
Guess who (Who, me?) Yeah, you!

Who walks in the classroom, cool and slow?
Who calls the English teacher Daddy-O?

Chatahoochie

Well way down yonder on the chatahoochie,
It gets hotter than a hoochie coochie
We layed rubber on a georia asphalt,
Gotta little crazy but we never got caught
Down by the river on a friday night,
Pyramid of cans in the pale moonlight
Talkin' 'bout cars and dreamin' 'bout women,
Never hadda plan justa livin' for the minute

Well a way down yonder on the chatahoochie,
Never knew how much that muddy water meant to me
But I learned how to swim,
And I learnt who I was
Alotta 'bout livin' and a little bout love

AwwwHaaaaa

Well we fogged up the windows in my old Chevy,
I was willin',
But she wasn't ready
So I settled for a burger and a grape snowcone,
Dropped her off early, but I didn't go home

Down by the river on a friday night,
A pyramid of cans in the pale moonlight
Talkin' 'bout cars and dreamin' 'bout women,
Never hadda plan justa livin' for the minute

Well a way down yonder on the chatahoochie,
Never knew how much that muddy water meant to me
But I learned how to swim,
And I learnt who I was.
Alotta 'bout livin' and a little 'bout love

Well a way down yonder on the chatahoochie
(short fiddle solo)
It gets hotter than a hoochie coochie.
(short fiddle solo)
We layed rubber on a georia asphalt,
We gotta little crazy but we never got caught

Well we fogged up the windows in my old Chevy,
I was willin'
But she wasn't ready
So I settled for a burger and a grape snowcone,
I dropped her off early, but I didn't go home

Down by the river on a friday night,
A pyramid of cans in the pale moonlight
Talkin' 'bout cars and dreamin' 'bout women,
Never hadda plan justa livin' for the minute

Yeah a way down yonder on the chatahoochie,
Never knew how much that muddy water meant to me
But I learned how to swim,
And I learnt who I was
Alotta 'bout livin' and a little bout love

Alotta bout livin' and a little bout love

Yeaaah-Heeee

Crazy

Crazy
I'm crazy for feelin' so lonely
I'm crazy
Crazy for feelin' so blue
I knew you'd love me as long as you wanted
And then someday
You'd leave me for somebody new

Worry, why do I let myself worry?
Wonderin' what in the world did I do?

I'm crazy
For thinkin' that my love could hold you
I'm crazy for cryin'
And crazy for tryin'
And I'm crazy for lovin' you

Crazy
For thinkin' that my love could hold you
I'm crazy for cryin'
And crazy for tryin'
And I'm crazy for lovin' you

Crying in the Chapel

You saw me crying in the chapel
The tears I shed were tears of joy
I know the meaning of contentment
I am happy with the Lord

Just a plain and simple chapel
Where all good people go to pray
I prayed the Lord that I'll grow stronger
As I live from day to day

I searched and I searched but I couldn't find
No way on earth to find peace of mind

Now I'm happy in the chapel
Where people are of one accord
Yes, we gather in the chapel
Just to sing and praise the Lord

You'll search and you'll search but you'll never find
No way on earth to find peace of mind

Take your troubles to the chapel
Get down on your knees and pray
Then your burdens will be lighter
And you'll surely find a way

Crystal Chandelier

Oh, the crystal chandeliers light up the paintings on your walls
the marble statuettes are standing stately in the hall
but will the timely crowd that has you laughing loud
help you dry your tears when the new wears off of your crystal chandeliers.

I never did fit in to well with the folks you knew
and it's plain to see that the likes of me don't fit with you
so you traded me for the gaiety of the well to do
and you turned away from the love I offered you

repeat chorus

I see your picture in the news most every day
you're the chosen girl of the social world, so the stories say
but a paper smile only lasts a while then it fades away
and the love we knew will come home to you someday

Honey, honey me and you

Do a little dance, make a little love

Baby, babe I meet you same place
Same time,where we can, oh, get together and
Ease up our mind

Get down tonight, get down tonight
Do a little dance, make a little love

Get down, get down, get down, get down
Get down tonight

Good Hearted Woman

A long time forgotten are dreams that just fell by the way
And the good life he promised ain't what she's living today
But she never complains of the bad times or the bad things he's done
She just talks about the good times they've had and all the good times to come

She's a good hearted woman in love with a good timin' man
And she loves him in spite of his ways that she don't understand
And through teardrops and laughter they'll pass through this world hand in hand
This good hearted woman in love with her good timin' man

[guitar]

Now he likes the night life and bright lights and good timin' friends
And when the party's all over she'll welcome him back home again
Though she don't understand him but she does the best that she can
This good hearted woman in love with her good timin' man

She's a good hearted woman in love with a good timin' man
And she loves him in spite of his ways that she don't understand
And through teardrops and laughter they'll pass through this world hand in hand
This good hearted woman in love with her good timin' man

She's a good hearted woman in love with a good timin' man
And she loves him in spite of his ways that she don't understand
And through teardrops and laughter they'll pass through this world hand in hand
This good hearted woman in love with her good timin' man

Dixie

Oh I wish I was in the Land of Cotton
Old times there are not forgotten
Look away, look away, look away
Dixie Land

In Dixie Land where I was born
On early one frosty morning
Look away, look away, look away
Dixie Land

Oh I wish I was in Dixie
Hooray, Hooray!
In Dixie Land I'll make my stand to live and die in Dixie
Away, away, away down south in Dixie
Away, away, away down south in Dixie
