When I was blue
And eternally I'll always be
In love with you
And all I gotta do
Is thank you girl, thank you girl

I could tell the world
A thing or two about our love
I know little girl
Only a fool would doubt our love
And all I gotta do
Is thank you girl, thank you girl

That's the kind of love
That is too good to be true

When I saw her yesterday
It's you she's thinking of
And she told me what to say
She says she loves you
And you know that can't be bad
Yes, she loves you
And you know you should be glad

She said you hurt her so
She almost lost her mind
But now she says she knows

Long Tall Sally (Johnson/Penniman/Blackwell)

Gonna tell Aunt Mary 'bout Uncle John
He says he has the blues but he has a lotta fun
Oh baby

Well, long tall Sally has a lot on the ball
And nobody cares if she's long and tall
Oh baby

Woo-o-o-oh baby
Havin' me some fun tonight

Well, I saw Uncle John with long tall Sally
He saw Aunt mary cummin' and he ducked back in the alley
Oh baby

I Call Your Name (Lennon/McCartney)

I call your name but you're not there
Was I to blame for being unfair
Oh I can't sleep at night, since you've been gone
I never weep at night I can't go on

Don' you know I can't take it
I don't know who can
I'm not goin' to make it
I'm not that kind of man

Oh I can't sleep at night, but just the same
I never weep at night I call your name
I call your name



Slow Down (Williams)

Well, come on pretty baby, won't you walk with me?
Come on, pretty baby, won't you talk with me?
Come on pretty baby, give me one more chance
Try to save our romance

Slow down, baby, now you're movin' way too fast
You gotta gimme little lovin', gimme little lovin'
Ow! if you want our love to last

Well, I used to walk you home, baby, after school
Carry your books home, too
But now you got a boyfriend down the street
Baby what you're tryin' to do?

You better slow down
Baby, now you're movin' way too fast
You gotta gimme little lovin', gimme little lovin'
Bbbbb! if you want our love to last

Well you know that I love you, tell the world I do
Come on, pretty baby, why can't you be true?
I need your baby, oh so bad
The best little woman I ever had

Slow down, baby, now you're movin' way too fast
You gotta gimme little lovin', gimme little lovin'
Ow! if you want our love to last



Matchbox (Perkins)

I said I'm sittin' here watchin'
Matchbox hole in my clothes
I said I'm sittin' here watchin'
Matchbox hole in my clothes
I ain't got no matches but I sure
got a long way to go

I'm an ol' poor boy, and I'm a
long way from home
I'm an ol' poor boy, and I'm a
long way from home
I'll never be happy cause everything I've
ever did was wrong

Well, If you don't want my peaches honey
please don't shake my tree
Well, If you don't want Ringo's peaches honey
please don't shake my tree
I got news for you baby, leave me here in
misery

Well, let me be your little dog, till your
big dog comes
Well, let me be your little dog, till your
big dog comes
And when your big dog gets here, watch how
your puppy dog runs

I said I'm sittin' here watchin'
Matchbox hole in my clothes
I said I'm sittin' here watchin'
Matchbox hole in my clothes.
I ain't got no matches but I sure
got a long way to go



I Feel Fine (Lennon/McCartney)

Baby's good to me, you know
She's happy as can be, you know
She said so
I'm in love with her and I feel fine

Baby says she's mine, you know
She tells me all the time, you know
She said so
I'm in love with her and I feel fine

I'm so glad that she's my little girl
She's so glad, she's telling all the world

That her baby buys her things, you know
He buys her diamond rings, you know
She said so
She's in love with me and I feel fine

Baby says she's mine, you know
She tells me all the time, you know
She said so
I'm in love with her and I feel fine

I'm so glad that she's my little girl

She's A Woman (Lennon/McCartney)

My love don't give me presents
I know that she's no peasant
Only ever has to give me love forever and forever
My love don't give me presents
Turn me on when I get lonely
People tell me that she's only
Foolin', I know she isn't

She don't give the boys the eye
She hates to see me cry
She is happy just to hear me say
That I will never leave her
She don't give the boys the eye
She will never make me jealous
Gives me all her time as well as lovin'
Don't ask me why

She's a woman who understands
She's a woman who loves her man

She's a woman, she's a woman



Bad Boy (Williams)

A bad little kid moved into my neighborhood
He won't do nothing right just sitting down and looks so good
He don't want to go to school and learn to read and write
Just sits around the house and plays the rock and roll music all night

Well, he put some tacks on teachers chair
Puts some gum in little girl's hair
Hey, junior, behave yourself

Buys every rock and roll book on the magazine stand
Every dime that he get is lost to the jukebox man
Well he worries his teacher till at night she's ready to poop
From rocking and a-rolling spinning in a hula hoop
Well this rock and roll has got to stop
Junior's head is hard as rock
Now, junior, behave yourself

Going tell your mama you better do what she said
Get to the barber shop and get that hair cut off your head
Threw the canary and you fed it to the neighbors cat
You gave the cocker spaniel a bath in mother's laundramat
Well, mama's head has got to stop
Junior's head is hard as rock
Now, junior, behave yourself



Yes It Is (Lennon/McCartney)

If you wear red tonight
Remember what I said tonight
For red is the colour that my baby wore
And what is more, it's true
Yes it is

Scarlet were the clothes she wore
Everybody knows I've sure
I would remember all the things we planned
Understand, it's true
Yes it is, it's true
Yes it is

I could be happy with you by my side
If I could forget her, but it's my pride
Yes it is, yes it is
Oh, yes it is, yeah

Please don't wear red tonight
This is what I said tonight
For red is the colour that will make me blue
In spite of you, it's true
Yes it is, it's true
Yes it is

I could be happy with you by my side
If I could forget her, but it's my pride
Yes it is, yes it is
Oh, yes it is, yeah

Please don't wear red tonight
This is what I said tonight
For red is the colour that will make me blue
In spite of you, it's true
Yes it is, it's true
Yes it is, it's true



I'm Down (Lennon/McCartney)

You telling lies thinking I can't see
You don't cry 'cos you're laughing at me
I'm down (I'm really down)
I'm down (Down on the ground)
I'm down (I'm really down)
How can you laugh when you know I'm down
(How can you laugh) When you know I'm down

Man buys ring woman throws it away
Same old thing happens everyday
I'm down (I'm really down)
I'm down (Down on the ground)
I'm down (I'm really down)
How can you laugh when you know I'm down
(How can you laugh) When you know I'm down

We're all alone and there's nobody else
You still moan: "Keep your hands to yourself!"
I'm down (I'm really down)
I'm down (Down on the ground)
I'm down (I'm really down)
How can you laugh when you know I'm down
(How can you laugh) When you know I'm down

Don't you know that I'm down (I'm really down)
Don't you know that I'm down (I'm really down)
Down on the ground (I'm really down)
Don't you know that I'm down (I'm really down)
Down, down, down
