A Big Hunk O'love
(Schroeder - Wyche)

Hey baby I ain't asking much of you
No, no, no, no, no, no baby
I ain't asking much of you
Just a big-a, big-a, big-a
Hunk o'love a-will do
Don't be a stingy little momma
You ‘bout to starve me half to death
Now you could spare a kiss or two
And still have plenty left
No, no, no baby I ain't asking much of you
Just a big-a, big-a, big-a
Hunk o'love a-will do, (a-will do), a-will do, that's right

You're just a natural born beehive
Filled with honey to the top
But I ain't greedy baby
All I want is all you got
No, no, no baby I ain't asking much of you
Just a big-a, big-a, big-a
Hunk o'love a-will do

I got a wish-bone in my pocket
I got a rabbit's foot around my wrist
And I'd have everything my lucky charm could bring
If you gimme just one sweet kiss
No, no, no baby I ain't asking much of you
Just a big-a, big-a, big-a hunk o'love a-will do, that's right
Just a big-a, big-a, big-a hunk o'love a-will do, that's right
Just a big-a, big-a, big-a hunk o'love a-will do, that's right


A Boy Like Me A Girl Like You
(Tepper / Bennett)

When a boy like me meets a girl like you
Then I must believe wishes come true
I just look at you and I touch your hand
And this ordinary world becomes a wonderland

* There are many girls I have met before
   But I passed them by because I knew
   There would be this magic moment,
   One to last a lifetime through
   When a boy like me meets a girl like you

* Repeat
When a boy like me meets a girl like you


A Cane And A High Starched Collar
(Tepper / Bennett)

Cowboy, cowboy marry me
I'll bake you a cherry pie
Well thank you very kindly mam
But I'm too young to die

* Hi-low- dosey-doe
  Stay single and save a dollar
  Come Saturday night I'll court a pretty gal
  With a cane and a high starched collar

Cowboy if you'll marry me
I'll be your darling Jenny
Now why should I drink from just one well
When I can drink from twen'y

* Repeat

Cowboy, cowboy name the day
July 'd be nice I reckon
Gladly meet you at the church
July the 32nd

* Repeat

You sleep all day and spoon all night
And eat your favourite chow
Then why should I get married mam
That's what I'm doing now

* Repeat


A Dog's Life
(Sid Wayne / Ben Weisman)

If I had my life to live over
I know just what I'd like to be
A pampered pet of a rich brunette
Sitting on my mama's knee
Someone to love me
Someone to care
Rubberduck dubble little fingers through my hair
I need a dog's life
What a life, that's good enough for me
That's good enough for me

If I had a bone to be picking
A picking chicken or a steak
Curled up there in an easy chair
Man, that won't be hard to take
I'll always be faithful
That's what I'd be
Never bite a hand that feeds me, no siree
Just lead a dog's life
What a life
That's good enough for me
That's good enough for me

I'd find me a Fifi la poodle
And lose my noodle over her
I'd chase her 'round, all over town
Just to ruffle up her fur
Nuzzle her muzzle
A hole in her paw
Greatest case of puppy lovin' you ever saw
It's called a dog's life
What a life
That's good enough for me
You heard me say it now
That's good enough for me
That's good enough for me


(Now And Then There's) A Fool Such As I
(Trader)

(Now and then there's a fool such as I)
Pardon me, if I’m sentimental
When we say goodbye
Don't be angry with me should I cry
When you're gone, yet I’ll dream
A little dream as years go by
Now and then there's a fool such as I (fool such as I)

  Now and then there's a fool such as I (fool such as I)

A House That Has Everything
(Tepper / Bennett)

I can see you now living like a queen
In a house that has everything, everything but love
Crystal chandeliers, chauffeured limousines
Yes you'll really have everything, everything but love

* I see diamonds and sables, sapphires and pearls
  And as the picture clears
  Poor little rich girl sitting all alone
  Counting her treasures and tears
  Better just a shack where two people care
  Than a house that has everything, everything but
  love

* Repeat
Than a house that has everything, everything but love


A Hundred Years From Now
(Flatt / Scruggs)

 * Well a hundred years from now I won't be crying
   A hundred years from now I won't be blue
   My heart will have to forget that we ever met
   But I won't care a hundred years from now

I'll never forget sweetheart the night you told me
That you could Live without my love somehow
That's all in the past I knew it wouldn't last
But I won't care a hundred years from now

* Repeat

* Repeat

* Repeat



A Little Bit Of Green
(Arnold / Morrow / Martin)

Now that the truth is hard to face
I can't forget you once were mine
Now someone else is in my place
Whenever we meet my heart beats out of time

Just a little bit of green
Clouds my eyes to what I've seen
Just a little bit of green
When I see you with someone new
And knowing that there's nothing I can do

Please don't try to tie me down
Those are the words you often say
I can't help seeing you around
You smile with surprise, I turn my eyes away

* Just a little bit of green
  Wow-oh-ho, clouds my eyes to what I've seen
  Just a little bit of green
  When I see you with someone new
  And knowing that there's nothing I can do

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

* Repeat

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Just a little bit of green


A Little Less Conversation

A Mess Of Blues
(Pomus - Shuman)

I just got your letter baby
A-too bad you can't come home
I swear I’m goin' crazy
Sittin' here all alone
Since you’re gone
I got a mess of the blues

I ain't slept a wink since Sunday
I can't eat a thing all day
Every day is just blue Monday
Since you've been away
Since you’re gone
I got a mess of the blues

* Whoops there goes a teardrop
  Rollin' down my face
  If you cry when you're in love
  It sure ain't no disgrace
  I gotta get myself together
  Before I lose my mind
  I'm gonna catch the next train goin'
  And leave my blues behind
  Since you’re gone
  I got a mess of the blues

* Repeat

Since you’re gone, I got a mess of the blues
Since you’re gone, I got a mess of the blues


A Thing Called Love
(Jerry Hubbard)

Six foot six  stood on the ground
Weighed two hundred and thirty-five pounds
But I saw that giant of a man brought
Down to his knees by love

He was the kind of man to gamble on love
Look you in the eye and never back up
But I saw him crying like a little whipped pup
Because of love

* Can't see it with your eyes, hold it in your hand
   Like the wind it covers our land
   Strong enough to rule the heart of any man
   This thing called love (This thing called love)
   He can lift you up, he can put you down
   Take your world and turn it all around
   Ever since time nothin’s ever been found
   Stronger than love

It's men like me, they worry and doubt
They trouble their minds day in and day out
Too busy with living to worry about
A thing called love

But when I see a mother's tenderness
As she holds her young close to her breast
Then I thank my God this world's was blessed
With a thing called love

* Repeat


A Whistling Tune
(Edwards / David)

Did you ever notice when the sun goes down
Out of nowhere comes a strange and pretty sound
It's a whistling tune for walking in the night
If you listen you can hear it in the breeze
Specially when the breeze is drifting through the trees

It's a whistling tune for walking in the night
And the murmuring waters sing the song
The echoing mountains hum alomg
The whispering valleys fill the air
With a whistling tune our hearts can share

It's so wonderful to walk beneath the moon
Listening to old mother nature's favourite tune
It's a whistling tune for walking in the night


A world of our own
( Giant, Baum, Kaye )

You kiss me darling, a miracle starts
A magic feeling, comes into our hearts
The spell of love begins, when we're alone
And we're in, a world of our own

You say you want me, and music I hear
Touch me my darling, and clouds disappear
The sky is bright above, and cares have flown
And we're in, a world of our own

Holding you close, is heaven
Only I know, what it's worth
Knowing you're mine, forever
Is the greatest wonder on earth

Nothing can change it, the magic's begun
When we're together, our hearts become one
I find a happiness, I've never known
When we're in, a world of our own

When we're in...a world of our own...


Adam And Evil
(Wise / Starr)

Now Adam and Evil, they go hand in hand
Eve taught him sin, that's the way it all began
But every time you kiss me, my heart pounds like a drum
So trouble is a woman, trouble ... here I come

I'm lonely like Adam, you're evil like Eve
I shouldn't take forbidden fruit 'cos I believe
I'll be heading straight for heartache
I should cut loose and run
But if loving you means heartache
Heartache, here I come

* You're not the angel that I dreamed about
  But you're the devil I don't wanna live without
  A woman's a woman, a man is a man
  I can't be free I'm just putty in your hands
  Who cares about tomorrow, I need your love tonight

And even if you're evil, baby .... hold me tight

* Repeat

And baby if you're evil, baby .... hold me tight
Hold me tight
Hold me tight
Hold me tight


After Loving You
(E. Miller / J. Lantz)

But now after loving you, what else is there to do
For honey, all the rest is just gonna have to be second best
I know I'll go through life comparing her to you
That's 'cos I'm no good, I'm no good to anyone after loving you

* Your precious love cannot be erased by just another woman with a pretty face
  And your memory, you know it will remain for it cannot be erased
  Other loves may come along, they can't live up to you
  That's 'cos I'm no good, I'm no good to anyone after loving you

* Repeat

I said I'm no good, I'm no good to anyone after loving you
I said I'm no good, I'm no good, I'm no good to anyone
To anyone, to anyone, to anyone after loving you
That's 'cos I'm no good, I'm no good to anyone after loving you


Ain't That Loving You Baby
(Otis - Hunter)

I could ride around the world in an old oxcart
And never let another girl thrill a-my heart

* Ain't that loving you baby?
  Ain't that loving you baby?
  Ain't that loving you baby?
  Ain't that loving you so?
  Uh-oh-oh, Uh-oh-oh

I could meet a hundred girls and have loads of fun
My huggin' and my kissin' belong to just one

* Repeat

If you gave me nine lives like an alley cat
I'd give 'em all to you and never take a-one back

* Repeat

I'm putting on my Sunday suit and I’m goin' downtown
But I’ll be kissin' your lips before the sun goes down

* Repeat

Ain't that loving you baby?
Ain't that loving you so?


All I need was the rain
( Ben Weisman / Sid Wayne )

Hello misfortune, how's my old friend "Mr. Misery"?
I've been away so long I bet you thought you’d seen the last of me
Got no bed, to rest my head
No doors or walls or window pane
Now all I needed was the rain
rain, rain, rain, rain

Met a little honey at the "Buzzin' Bumble Bee Cafe"
Yes I did
One drink and all my money and that honey bee had flown away
I'm 'bout as low, as I can go
I don't really mean to complain
Now all I needed was the rain
rain, rain...rain..rain

(parlato)
All I needed was this rain...
All I needed was the rain...um..um.....



All Shook Up
(Blackwell - Presley)

A-well-a bless my soul
What's wrong with me
I'm itching like a man on a fuzzy tree
My friends say I’m acting wild as a bug
I'm in love! I'm all shook up!
Mm-mm-mm mm-mm! Yeah-yeah!!

My hands are shaky and my knees are weak
I can't seem to stand on my own two feet
Who do you thank when you have such luck
I'm in love! I'm all shook up!
Mm-mm-mm mm-mm! Yeah-yeah!!

Please don't ask me what's on my mind
I'm a little mixed up but I’m feeling fine
When I’m near that girl that i love best
My heart beats so it scares me to death

* She touched my hand what a chill I got
  Her lips are like a volcano that's hot
  I'm proud to say she's my buttercup
  I'm in love! I'm all shook up!
  Mm-mm-mm mm-mm! Yeah-yeah!!

My tongue gets tied when I try to speak
My insides shake like a leaf on a tree
There's only one cure for this body of mine
That's to have the gal that I love so fine!

* Repeat

Mm-mm-mm mm-mm! Yeah-yeah!!
I'm all shook up!


All That I Am
(Tepper / Bennett)

All that I am or ever hope to be
Lies in your hands
You are my destiny
When you are in my arms, I rule the world
And when we're far apart, how cruel the world

* All that I want (All that I want) is to be near to you
  To spend my life (To spend my life) making it clear to you
  You are my heart, my soul, my dream come true
  All that I am, I am because of you

* Repeat
Because of you
Because of you


Allá En El "Rancho Grande"
(Ramos / Urange / Del Moral)

Allá en el rancho grande
Allá donde vívía
Hablá una rancherita
Que alegre me decía
Que alegre me decía:
"Te voy hacer unas calzones
comos los que esa el ranchero
Los comenzo de lana
y los acabo de hierro."

There in the great ranch
There where she used to live
There used to be a cowgirl
Who joyfully used to tell me
Who joyfully used to tell me
"I'm going to make some trousers
like those which the cowboy wears
I'm starting them with wool
and I'm finishing them with iron."


All I Really Want To Do 
(Bob Dylan)

I ain't looking to compete with you
Beat or cheat or mistreat you
Simplify you, classify you
Deny, defy or crucify you
All I really wanna do,
Is baby, be friends with you.

No, and I ain't looking to fight with you
Frighten you or uptighten you
Drag you down or drain you down
Chain you down or bring you down
All I really wanna do,
Is baby, be friends with you.

I ain't looking to block you up
Shock or knock or lock you up
Analyse you, catagorize you
Finalise you or advertise you
All I really wanna do,
Is baby, be friends with you.

I don't want to straight face you
Race or chase you, track or trace you
Or disgrace you or displace you
Or define you or confine you
All I really wanna do,
Is baby, be friends with you.

I don't want to meet your kin
Make you spin or do you in
Or select you or dissect you
Or inspect you or reject you
All I really wanna do,
Is baby, be friends with you.

I don't want to fake you out
Take or shake or forsake you out
I ain't looking for you to feel like me
See like me or be like me
All I really wanna do,
Is baby, be friends with you.


Almost
(Kaye / Weisman)

We almost shared a dream
We almost made it as a team
How nice it would have been.

We almost touched the stars
And there stood heaven, almost ours
We were just outsiders looking in.

We had the chance to fall
But fate stepped in to end it all
Before it could begin.

And if it's true, you're really going
There's nothing but goodbye to say
The saddest part of all is knowing
We almost went all the way


Almost always true
(Fred Wise / Ben Weisman)

I was always
Baby I was always
Well almost always true to you

Met a pretty mademoiselle
Her poppa owned a small hotel
Oh, I was almost always true to you

I resisted though my arm was twisted
I was almost always true to you

I stayed away from drink and wine
Thought about you all the time
Oh, I was almost always true to you

Kept refusing
Don't jump to conclusions
I was almost always true to you

I would never grab like this
I would never steal a kiss
Oh, I was almost always true to you

I was almost always true to you


Almost In Love
(L. Bonfa - R. Starr)

Your lips were made for kisses so tender
I'm almost in love tonight
When we are close, my heart says surrender
I'm almost in love tonight

And here under the spell of evening
I long to hold you tight
Heaven is near, why think of tomorrow
I'm almost in love tonight

It may be just the spell of evening
I long to hold you tight
Heaven is near, why think of tomorrow
I'm almost in love tonight

(Love Tonight)
Almost in love


Aloha' oe
(Queen Liliuokalani, Arr.by Elvis)

Ha `aheo `e ka ua i na pali
Ke nihi a `ela i ka nahele
E uhai ana paha i ka liko
Pua `ahiahi lehua o uka

(Proudly the rain on the cliffs
Creeps into the forest
Seeking the buds
And miniature lehua flowers of the uplands)

Hui:
Aloha `oe, aloha `oe
E ke onaona noho i ka lipo
One fond embrace, a ho `i a `e au
A hui hou aku

Chorus:
(Farewell to you, farewell to you
O fragrance in the blue depths
One fond embrace and I leave
To meet again)

`O ka hali `a aloha ka i hiki mai
Ke hone a `e nei i ku `u manawa
`O `oe no ka `u ipo aloha
A loko e hana nei

(Sweet memories come
Sound softly in my heart
You are my beloved sweetheart
Felt within)

Maopopo ku `u `ike i ka nani
Na pua rose o Mauna-wili
I laila ho `ohie na manu
Miki `ala i ka mani o ia pua

(I understand the beauty
Of rose blossoms at Mauna-wili
There the birds delight
Alert the beauty of this flower



Along Came Jones
(Leiber / Stoller)

I plopped down in my easy chair and turned on Channel Two
A bad gun slinger called Salty Sam was a-chasin' poor Sweet Sue
He trapped her in the old sawmill, and he said with an evil laugh
"If you don't give me the deed to your ranch, I'll saw you all in half."

And then he grabbed her, (and then?)
He tied her up (and then?)
He turned on the buzz saw
(and then? and then?) 

* Ah, ah, and then along came Jones
  Tall, thin Jones, slow walking Jones
  Slow talking Jones, along came long, lean, lanky Jones,

Commercial came on, so I got up, to get myself a snack
You should have seen what was going on by the time I got back
Down in the old abandoned mine,
Sweet Sue was a-havin' fits
That villain said, "Gimme the deed to your ranch
Or I'll blow you all to bits."

And then he grabbed her, (and then?)
He tied her up, (and then?)
He lit the fuse to the dynamite
(and then? and then?)

* Repeat

I got so bugged, I turned it off and turned on another show
But, there was the same old shoot-em up and the same old rodeo
Salty Sam was a-tryin' to stuff Sweet Sue in a burlap sack
He said, "If you don't give me the deed to your ranch
I'm gonna throw you on the railroad track."

And then he grabbed her, (and then?)
He tied her up, (and then?)
A train started coming
(And then? and then?) eh, eh

* Repeat


Always On My Mind
(James / Carson / Christopher)

Maybe I didn't treat you
Quite as good as I should have
Maybe I didn't love you
Quite as often as I could have   

Little things I should have said and done
I just never took the time
You were always on my mind
(You were always on my mind)
You were always on my mind

Maybe I didn't hold you
All those lonely, lonely times   
And I guess I never told you
I'm so happy that you're mine

If I made you feel second best
Girl I'm so sorry I was blind
You were always on my mind
(You were always on my mind)
You were always on my mind

Tell  me,      
Tell me that your sweet love hasn't died   
Give me,       
Give me one more chance to keep you satisfied, satisfied

Little things I should have said and done
I just never took the time
You were always on my mind
(You were always on my mind)
You were always on my mind

You were always on my mind

Maybe I didn't treat you
Quite as good as I should have
Maybe I didn't love you
Quite as often as I could have

Maybe I didn't hold you
All those lonely, lonely times   
And I guess I never told you
I'm so happy that you're mine
Maybe I didn't treat you
Quite as good as I should have


AM I READY
(Tepper,Bennett)

Am I ready, can my heart be true?
Am I ready, to fall in love with you

One love, one girl,one dream shared by two
Am I ready, to fall in love with you

I have touched your lips,and now I know
I would be a fool, to let you go

Should I, could I, how I wish I knew
Am I ready, to fall in love with you

Should I, could I, how I wish I knew
Am I ready, to fall in love with you

Fall in love...with..you...



Amazing Grace
(Arrangiatamento Elvis Presley)

Amazing Grace, well how sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me
I once was lost, but now am found
Was blind, but now I see

When we've been there ten thousand years
Bright shining as the sun
We've no less days to sing God's praise
Than when, when we'd first begun

(Through many dangers, toils and snares)
(I have already come)
('Tis Grace that brought me safe thus far)
(And Grace will lead me home)

Amazing Grace, well how sweet the sound
To saved a wretch like me
Oh I once was lost, oh but now am found
Was blind, but now I see

Was blind, but now I see

An American Trilogy
(Arrangiamento Mickey Newbury)

Oh I wish I was in the land of cotton 
Old things they are not forgotten 
Look away, look away, look away Dixieland 

Oh I wish I was in Dixie, away, away 
In Dixieland I take my stand 
To live and die in Dixie 
Cause Dixieland, that's where I was born 
Early Lord one frosty morning 
Look away, look away, look away Dixieland 

Glory, glory hallelujah
Glory, glory hallelujah 
Glory, glory hallelujah 
His truth is marching on 

So hush little baby, don't you cry 
You know your daddy's bound to die 
But all my trials, Lord 
Will soon be over

Glory, glory hallelujah 
His truth is marching on 
His truth is marching on 


An Evening Prayer
(Battersby / Gabriel)

If I have wounded any soul today
If I have caused one's foot to go astray
If I have walked in my own willful way
Dear Lord, forgive

Forgive the sins I have confessed to thee
Forgive my secret sins I do not see
Oh guide, watch over and my keeper be
Dear Lord, Amen


And I Love You So
(Don Mclean)

And I love you so
The people ask me how
How I’ve lived till now
I tell them I don't know

I guess they understand
How lonely life has been
But life began again
The day you took my hand

* And yes I know how lonely life can be
  Shadows follow me
  And the night won't set me free
  But I don't let the evening get me down
  Now that you're around me

And you love me too
Your thoughts are just for me
You set my spirits free
I'm happy that you do

The book of life is brief
Once the page is read
All but love is dead
This is my belief

* Repeat


And The Grass Won't Pay No Mind 
(Neil Diamond)

Listen easy, you can hear God calling
Walking barefoot by the stream
Come unto me, your hair's softly falling
On my face as in a dream
And the time will be our time
And the grass won't pay no mind

Saying nothing, lying where the sun is
Baking down upon our sides
My lips touch you, with their soft wet kisses
Your hands gentle in reply
And the time will be our time
And the grass won't pay no mind

Child, touch my soul with your cries
And the music will know what we've found
I hear a hundred goodbyes
But today I hear only one sound
The moment we're living is now
Now now now now now now now

Young birds flying, and a soft wind blowing
Cools the sweat inside my palms
Close my eyes, hear the flowers growing
As you lay sleeping in my arms
And the time will be our time
And the grass won't pay no mind
No the grass won't pay no mind

Angel
(Tepper/Bennett)

Angel, with those angel eyes
Come and take this earth boy
Up to paradise

Angel, may I hold you tight?
Never kissed an angel
Let me kiss one tonight

If I said "I love you" would I be speaking out of turn?
I'm only human, but I'm willing to learn

Angel, make my wish come true
Let me be in heaven here on earth with you

Angel.......never kissed an angel
Let me kiss one tonight

If I said "I love you"
Would I be speaking out of turn?
I'm only human, but I'm willing to learn

Angel, make my wish come true
Let me be in heaven here on earth with you

Angel, Angel...



Animal instinct
(Giant, Baum, Kaye)
Don't ever take your eyes off me
Not even for a minute
'cause like a panther I might pounce
And there'd be danger in it

I can be sneaky, fast as a snake
I strike like a cobra, make no mistake
And baby you'll be trapped, quick as a wink
It's animal instinct

Don't think that I won't pin you down
No matter how you plead it
I'm like a lion who's been caged
And you've the meat I'm needin'

Watch out I'll warn ya', sharp as a hawk
I'm wild as a tiger, I prowl and I stalk
'cause when a man feels thirst, he takes a drink
It's animal instinct

You better not be caught off guard
This wolf is on the search now
A leopard just can't change it's spots
And I'm about to lurch now
Loves like a jungle, I'll fight tooth and nail
I've just gotta get you, you'll fall without fail
I'm ready for the kill, I'm right on the brink
It's animal instinct...
It's animal instinct.....animal instinct...



Any Day Now
(B. Bacharach / B. Hilliard)

Any day now I will hear you say
Goodbye my love
You'll be on your way
Then my wild beautiful bird
You will have flown
Any day now I’ll be all alone
Whoa, whoa whoa

Any day now, when your restless eyes
Meet someone new
To my sad surprise
Then the blue shadow will fall all over town
Any day now
Love will let me down
Whoa whoa whoa

I know I shouldn't want to keep you
If you don't want to stay, yeh
Until you've gone forever
I'll be holding on for dear life 
Holding you this way
Begging you to stay

Any day now
When the clock strikes go
You'll call it off
Then my tears will flow
Then the blue shadow will fall all over town
Any day now
Love will let me down
Whoa whoa whoa

Whoa any day now
Whoa whoa whoa
Whoa any day now
Don't fly away my beautiful bird

Don't fly away my beautiful bird


Anyone (Could Fall In Love With You)
(Benjamin / Marcus DeJesus)

Anyone could fall in love with you
Anyone who knows you as I do
Anyone could fall in love with you
And I love you my darling

Anyone could lose his heart like me
Anyone who has eyes that can see
Anyone could fall in love like me
And I love you my darling

You're the star I reached for
You're a dream so rare
You're my greatest treasure
Nothing can compare

Anyone could want you for his own
Anyone not only I alone
Anyone could fall in love with you
And I love you my darling
Anyone could fall in love with you
And I love you my darling


Anyplace Is Paradise
(Thomas)

Whether I'm riding down a highway
Or walkin' down a street
It makes no difference baby doll
Wherever we chance to meet
Each time I hold your little hand
It makes me feel so very nice
Anyplace is paradise
When I’m with you

Whether we're standin' on your doorstep
Or sittin' in a park
Or strollin' down a shady lane
Or dancin' in the dark
Where I can take you in my arms
And look into your pretty eyes
Anyplace is paradise
When I’m with you

Give me a cave up in the mountains
Or a shack down by the sea
And I will be in heaven, honey
If you are there with me
Where I can kiss your tender lips
And see the love-light in your eyes
Anyplace is paradise
When I’m with you

Baby I’d live deep in the jungle
And sleep up in a tree
And let the rest of the world go by
If you were there with me
Well I could love you all the time
Baby, the jungle would be fine
Anyplace is paradise
When I’m with you


Anything That's Part Of You
(Don Robertson)

I memorize the note you sent
Go all the places that we went
I seem to search the whole day through
For anything that's part of you

I kept a ribbon from your hair
A breath of perfume lingers there
It helps to cheer me when I’m blue
Anything that's part of you

Oh, how it hurts to miss you so
When I know you don't love me anymore
To go on needing you
Knowing you don't need me

No reason left for me to live
What can I take, what can I give?
When I’d give all of someone new
For anything that's part of you


Anyway You Want Me (That's How I Will Be)
(Aron Schroeder / Cliff Owens)

I'll be as strong as a mountain
Or weak as a willow tree
Anyway you want me
Well, that's how I will be

I'll be as tame as a baby
Or wild as the raging sea
Anyway you want me
Well, that's how I will be

In your hands my heart is clay
To take and mold as you may
I'm what you make me
You've only to take me
And in your arms I will stay-ay-ay

I'll be a fool or a wise man
My darling you hold the key
Yes, anyway you want me
Well, that's how I will be
I will be.


Apron Strings
(Weiss / Schroeder)


It's good to be free, I don't want a release
To come and go whenever I please
But honey, your love is clipping my wings
I wanna be tied, tied, tied to your apron strings

I kiss you goodnight, honey what do I do?
I hury on home to dream about you
It's crazy I know, but just one of those things
I wanna be tied, tied, tied to your apron strings

You touch my hand and I burn like fire
You kiss my lips and the flame grows higher
I'm such a lucky devil     (???????????)
To find an angel like you

I'm crossing my heart and I'm telling no lies
So open your arms and close your eyes
I'm sticking real close, like ivy that clings
I wanna be tied, tied, tied to your apron strings



Are You Lonesome Tonight?
(Roy Turk / Lou Handman)

Are you lonesome tonight?
Do you miss me tonight?
Are you sorry we drifted apart?
Does your memory stray to a bright summer day
When I kissed you and called you sweetheart?
Do the chairs in your parlour seem empty and bare?
Do you gaze at your doorstep and picture me there?
Is your heart filled with pain?
Shall I come back again?
Tell me dear, are you lonesome tonight?

(Parlato)
I wonder if you're lonesome tonight
You know someome said that the world's a stage
And each must play a part
Fate had me playing in love with you as my sweetheart
Act One was when we met
I loved you at first glance
You read your lines so cleverly and never missed a cue
Then came Act Two
You seemed to change - you acted strange
And why, I've never known
Honey you lied when you said you loved me
And I had no cause to doubt you
But I'd rather go on hearing your lies
Than to go on living without you
Now the stage is bare and I'm standing there
With emptiness all around
And if you won't come back to me
Then they can bring the curtain down

Is your heart filled with pain?
Shall I come back again?
Tell me, dear, are you lonesome tonight?

Are You Lonesome Tonight? (Laughing version)
(Roy Turk / Lou Handman)

Are you lonesome tonight?
Do you miss me tonight?
Are you sorry we drifted apart?
Does your memory stray to a bright summer day
When I kissed you and called you sweetheart?
Do the chairs in your parlour seem empty and bare?
Do you gaze at your bald head and wish you had hair
Is your ha-ha filled with pain?
Shall I come back ha ha ha
Tell me dear, are you lonesome ha ha ha Oh Lordy
(Parlato)
I wonder ha-ha-ha-ha
You know someome said the worlds a stage
And each must play a part 
Ha ha ha ha ha ha
Act Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha Oh God ??????? I tell you
I Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha
And I had no cause to doubt you
Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha
Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha
Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha
Sing it baby
Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha
Shall I come back ha-ha again?
Tell me, dear, are you lonesome ha ha-ha-ha tonight?
Is your heart filled with pain?
Shall I come back 
Tell me dear, ha ha ha Are you lonesome toni ha-ha-ha


Are You Sincere?
(Wayne Walker)

Are you sincere when you say, "I love you"?
Are you sincere when you say you love me too?
And are you really mine ev'ry day, all the time?
I've gotta know which way to go
Will our love grow, are you sincere?

Mmmmm
(Parlato)
Are you sincere when you say, "I love you"?
Honey, are you sincere when you say you love me too?

And are you really mine every day, all the time?
I've gotta know which way to go
Will our love grow, are you sincere?
(Are you sincere)


As Long As I Have You
(Wise / Weisman)

Let the stars fade and fall
And I won't care at all
As long as I have you

Every kiss brings a thrill
And I know that it will
As long as I have you

* Let's think of the future
  Forget the past
  You're not my first love
  But you're my last
  Take the love that I bring
  Then I'll have everything
  As long as I have you

 * Repeat



As We Travel Along The Jericho Road 
(Public Domain)

As I travel along
On the Jericho road
Does the world seem all wrong
And heavy your load
Just bring it to Christ
Your sins all confess
On the Jericho road
Your heart he will bless

* On the Jericho road
   There’s room for just two
   No more and no less
   Just Jesus and you
   Each burden He'll bear
   Each sorrow He'll share
   There's never a care
  'Cause Jesus is there

So brother to you
This message I bring
Though hearts may be blue 
He'll cause you to sing
At Jesus' command
Sin shackles must fall
On the Jericho road 
Will you answer His call

* Repeat



Ask Me
(Modugno - Giant - Baum - Kaye)

Ask me if I wanted to caress you
And I’ll confess
Ask me if I'm longing to possess you
I'll answer yes

* Now that we’re together
  I could hold you close forever
  And I swear that I would never let you go
  There's no question that I care more than you know
  Love me darling, just be mine completely
  And there's nothing I won't do if you
  Just ask me

* Repeat

Just ask me


Aubrey  
(David Gates)
(And Aubrey was her name,
A not so very ordinary girl or name.
But who's to blame for a love that wouldn't bloom
For the hearts that never played in tune.
Like a lovely melody that everyone can sing,
Take away the words that rhyme it doesn't mean a thing.

And Aubrey was her name.
We tripped the light and danced together to the moon,
But where was June.
No it never came around.
And if it did it never made a sound,
Maybe I was absent or was listening too fast,
Catching all the words, but then the meaning going past,
And how I miss the girl, and I'd go a thousand miles
Around the world just to be closer the her than to me.

And Aubrey was her name)
I never knew her (I never knew her,)
But I loved her just the same, (But I loved her just the same,)
I loved her name. (I loved her name.
Wish that I had found the way
And the reasons that would make her stay.)
I have learned to lead a life (I have learned to lead a life)
Apart from all the rest. (Apart from all the rest.)
If I can't have the one I want, (If I can't have the one I want, )
I'll do without the rest. (I'll do without the rest.)
And God (And God I miss the girl and I'd go a
million times around the world just to say
she had been mine for a day)
(Just for a day)


(You're So Square) Baby I Don't Care
(Leiber / Stoller)

You don't like crazy music
You don't like rockin' bands
You just wanna go to a movie show
And sit there holdin' hands

Baby I don't care

You don't like hot rod racing
Or drivin' late at night
You just wanna park where it's nice and dark
You just wanta hold me tight

No one else can love me like you do, do, do, do

Baby I don't care

Baby I don't care
Baby I don't care

Baby, If You'll Give Me All Of Your Love

I'll call you sweet little things like turtle dove
I'll whisper pretty things in your ear
The kind of things a girl likes to hear

To prove it's you that I've been thinking of
Tear up all the pictures I own of every pretty girl I've ever known

  I'll kiss your sweet red cherry lips until you holler stop
  Every night I'll serenade you 'neath your window

  Baby, if you'll give me all of your love

If you will give me, if you will give me all your love

Bad Moon Rising

I see trouble on the way
I see earthquakes and lightnin'
I see bad times today

* Don't go 'round tonight

Hope you are quite prepared to die
Looks like we'er in for nasty weather
One eye is taken for an eye

Barefoot Ballad
(Fuller / Morris)

(Registrata per il film "Kissin' Cousins")

* I want a barefoot ballad yes a barefoot ballad
  Won't you play for me a down home country song
  'Cos when I kick my shoes off and I kick my blues off
  With a barefoot ballad you just can't go wrong

Give me a honk-tonk fiddle with a guitar in the middle of a melody
Bubbling like a fountain, swiggin' out on smokey mountain

* Repeat

Now the big toe's connected to the two toe
And the two toe's connected to the three toe
And the three toe's connected to the four toe
And the four toe's connected to the five toe
And the five toe (that's a live toe) and away we go

* Repeat

Won't you play for me (play for who, play for him
play for her her) a barefoot ballad song.


Beach Boy Blues
(Tepper, Bennett)

I'm a poor Hawaiian beach boy
A long way, from the beach
'Cause someone shoved his face against my hand
Now I'm a kissin' cousin, to a ripe pineapple
I'm in the can

I was mindin' my own bus'ness
Drinkin' Daddy's juice
I swear I'll never touch that stuff again
Just like the pig before he gave his...
All at the luau
I'm...in the pen

Got those beach boy blues
Don't the time go slow?
Lonely beach boy blues
Only thirty days and ninety years to go

I wanna taste the honey
From my wahini's lips
I wanna be her ever-lovin' man
But I'm a kissin' cousin, to a ripe pineapple
I'm in the can

But I'm a kissin' cousin to a ripe pineapple

I'm in the can...
