I'M GONNA LOVE YOU - Peter Criss, Stan Penridge


Don't let me find you 
Sleepin' with another man 
Say you're gonna be true 
And stay and love me like you can 

'Cause I really love you and it's true 
I'm gonna love you rain or come shine 

Honey, won't you tell me 
You don't want nobody else 
Don't you tear my heart out 
And lay it on your shelf 

'Cause I really love you and it's true 
I'm gonna love you rain or come shine 

And I'm gonna love you (gonna love you) 
Rain or come shine (rain or come shine) 
You know you're gonna find me (gonna find me) 
Around you all the time (time) 

'Cause I really love you and it's true 
I'm gonna love you rain or come shine 
Rain or come shine, rain or come shine 
Rain or come shine, rain or come shine 
Rain or come shine, rain or come shine 



YOU MATTER TO ME - J. Vastano, M. Morgan, Vini Poncia

Look up, the sky is crying 
Endless tears 
Feels like my whole world's dying 
It hurts when you're not here 

'Cause you matter to me and that's why 
You still matter to me 
And that's the only reason I need, to get by 
You still matter to me, yes you do 

I ain't no good at talkin' 
So girl I'm tellin' you straight 
My heart feels just like an orphan 
I hope I'm not too late 

'Cause you matter to me and that's why (and that's why) 
You still matter to me 
And that's the only reason I need, to get by 
You still matter to me, yes you do 

If I could have just one wish 
I'd stand you in my place 
Then you'd know how much I miss you 
You'll never be replaced 

'Cause you matter to me and that's why (and that's why) 
You still matter to me 
And that's the only reason I need, to get by 
You still matter to me, yes you do 

You still matter to me 
And that's the only reason I need, to get by 
You still matter to me, yes you do 

'Cause you matter to me, yes you do 
And that's the only reason I need, to get by (get by) 
'Cause you matter to me, ain't no lie 
And that's the only reason I need, to get by (get by) 
'Cause you matter to me, yes you do 
And that's the only reason I need, ain't no lie 



TOSSIN' AND TURNIN' - R. Adams, M. Rene

I couldn't sleep at all last night 
Just a-thinkin' 'bout you 
Baby, things weren't right 

'Cause I was 
Tossin' and turnin', turnin' and tossin' 
Tossin' and turnin', tossin' and turnin' all night 

I kicked the blankets on the floor 
Turned my pillow upside down 
I never felt this way before 

'Cause I was 
Tossin' and turnin', turnin' and tossin' 
Tossin' and turnin', tossin' and turnin' all night 

Jumped out of bed, turned on the lights 
Pulled down the shade, went to the kitchen for a bite 
Rolled up the shade, turned down the lights 
I jumped back in the bed, was the middle of the night 

The clock downstairs was strikin' three 
Couldn't get you off my mind 
I heard the milkman on the street 

'Cause I was 
Tossin' and turnin', turnin' and tossin' 
Tossin' and turnin', tossin' and turnin' all night 

Jumped out of bed, turned on the lights 
Pulled down the shade, went to the kitchen for a bite 
Rolled up the shade, turned down the lights 
Jumped back in the bed, was the middle of the night 

The clock downstairs was strikin' three 
Couldn't get you off my mind 
I heard the milkman on the street 

'Cause I was 
Tossin' and turnin', turnin' and tossin' 
Tossin' and turnin', tossin' and turnin' all night 

Tossin' and turnin' (tossin' and turnin') 
Tossin' and turnin' (tossin' and turnin') 
Turnin' and tossin' (turnin' and tossin') 
Tossin' and turnin' (tossin' and turnin') 
Tossin' and turnin' (tossin' and turnin') 
Turnin' and tossin' (tossin' and turnin') 
Tossin' and turnin' (tossin' and turnin'), oh 
Tossin' and turnin' (tossin' and turnin') 
Turnin' and tossin' (tossin' and turnin') 
(Tossin' and turnin') 
Tossin' and turnin' (tossin' and turnin') 
Turnin' and tossin' (tossin' and turnin') 
(Tossin' and turnin') 



DON'T YOU LET ME DOWN - Peter Criss, Stan Penridge

Baby, don't you let me down (don't you let me down) 
Don't you leave me lonely (don't you leave me lonely) 
Don't you run around 
I said baby (baby) when I'm on the ground, yeah 
(When I'm on the ground) 
Try to keep my chin up, feel I'm fallin' farther down 

Ooh, you know I'm feelin' sorry 
But I know that won't do 
Ooh, looks like there's no tomorrow 
There's no tomorrow without you

So darlin' brighten up all of my hopes

THAT'S THE KIND OF SUGAR PAPA LIKES - Peter Criss, Stan Penridge

I didn't want you, did not need you 
Sure wouldn't mean to kick you down 
You know I love you, I really love you 
Sure do wish you'd come around

And when you do it, it drives me crazy (drives me crazy) 
And I don't know if I'm up or down

And find someone who'll love me right

KISS THE GIRL GOODBYE - Peter Criss, Stan Penridge

Kiss the girl goodbye 
It's time for me to fly 
Wipe the tears away 
I'll be home some day, baby 

So baby, please wait for me 
Don't want no one to take my place 
You're the one for me 
And that's the way love should be 

We've been apart so many times before 
One more time won't change things 
I'll even love you more

HOOKED ON ROCK AND ROLL - Stan Penridge, Peter Criss, Vini Poncia

The boy could play before he learned to grow 
Worked in a band who had no name at all 
Every mornin' at the break of dawn 
You could see him draggin' home his drums 

I was vaccinated with a little needle 
And I'm hooked on rock and roll 

They called the family doctor to see what he could do 
Doc said "No you can't cure his soul 
Once he's infected with the blues" 
So I travelled 'round from town to town singin' out the news 

I was vaccinated with a little needle 
And I'm hooked on rock and roll 

When you find you got no mind 
To work from nine to five 
Find the back beat, set your heart free 
And feel that music runnin' through your feet 

Mama told me long ago 
"Ain't no future in that rock 'n' roll" 
And I said "Hey mama, it's burnin' hot inside my soul" 

It's like a fever that won't cool down 
I've been addicted since I heard that sound 

I was vaccinated with a little needle 
And I'm hooked on rock and roll 

When you find you got no mind (bop shoo bop, bop bop shoo bop) 
To work from nine to five 
Find the back beat, set your heart free 
(Bop shoo bop, bop bop shoo bop) 
And feel the music runnin' through your feet 

Mama told me long ago 
"Ain't no future in that rock 'n' roll" 
And I said "Hey mama, it's burnin' hot inside me soul" 

It's like a fever that won't cool down 
I've been addicted since I heard that sound 

I was vaccinated with a little needle 
And I'm hooked on rock and roll, yeah 
Hooked on rock and roll 
(I've been addicted since I heard that sound) 
Hooked on rock and roll 
Hooked on rock and roll 
(It's like a fever that won't cool down) 
Hooked on rock and roll, yeah, yeah, yeah 
Hooked on rock and roll 
(It's burnin, burnin, burnin in my soul) 
Hooked on rock and roll 
Hooked on rock and roll 
(I've been addicted since I heard that sound) 
Hooked on rock and roll 
Hooked on rock and roll 
Hooked on rock and roll 
Hooked on 



I CAN'T STOP THE RAIN - Sean Delaney

This is New York, yo 

(It's getting dark) 

Night falls on the city 
Finds me all alone 
Makes me wonder 
Should I just go on home 

And I walk up the stairs 
To see if you're sill there 
Would you mind if 
I found you alone 

Then a cold wind came callin' 
Strange how it knew it'd bother me 
See the night would fade 
But the pain's gonna stay 
Makes me wonder 
Have you ever made love to me 

I can't stop the rain, here it comes again 
Lightnin' strikes across the sky 
Oh, I can't stop the rain, here it comes again 
Lightnin' only blinds my eyes 

Ain't it sad 
When the only love I ever had 
Just slips away 
Right through my fingers 

Ain't it a shame when I think of your name 
The only memory I have is it 

I can't stop the rain, here it comes again 
Lightnin' strikes across the sky 
Oh, I can't stop the rain, here it comes again 
It takes a witch to curse that goddamn sky 

I can't stop the rain, here it comes again 
Lightnin' strikes across the sky 
Oh, I can't stop the rain, here it comes again 
'Cause lightnin' only blinds my eyes 

Oh, I can't stop the rain, here it comes again 
'Cause lightnin' only blinds my eyes 

Can't stop it, blinds my eyes
