Your father and mother That was long ago and I'd like to say #02) I'm talkin' about love, love, love You know I told you, darling That I'd never let you down And no matter what you do I'd always be around You treat me like a schoolboy #03) If you love me like you say you do Chaw tobacca, too #04) It don't mean a thing when the leader's singin' #05) Who's that bangin' on the piano? I don't know You goin' out with her tonight? You bet your fern #06) Hi-ho the derry-o Sing it high, sing it low #07) Oh, the mush was as tasty As tasty could be And early next summer It grew into a tree #08) Touched only by the seasons Swept clean by the waving grain Surveyed by a happy bluebird And kissed by the falling rain #09) And let me abos go loose They're of no further use #10) The cats don't bug him 'cause they know better 'Cause he's a mean motorscooter and a bad go-getter #11) Now, God seen some sinnin', and it gave Him pain And He says, "Stand back, I'm going to make it rain" #12) Every time you hurt me It seems like you planned it I've talked to your friends But they don't understand it Where did we lose it? What did I do wrong? #13) Well I was walkin' down the street with my shiny badge My spurs jinglin' at my feet I seen a man a-comin', comin' with a gun I-i-i-i just can't be beat #14) Girl, you're my love I love you, love you, and I'll never let you down #15) 4-H and F.F.A. On a field trip to the farm Me and a friend sneak off behind This big old barn #16) You thought it was a joke and so you laughed, you laughed When I had said that losing you would make me flip my lid #17) My foot's on the throttle and it's made of lead But I'm a fast-ridin' daddy with a real cool head I'm a-gonna pass a truck on the hill ahead #18) Darling, do I deserve such a break? Pinch me to prove I'm awake I can't believe that you're really mine #19) You've been keeping love from me just like you were a miser And I'll admit I wasn't very smart So I went out and found myself a guy that's so much wiser #20) C'mon, baby, while the thrill is on C'mon, baby, let's a-have some fun #21) Shut up, baby, I'm tryin' to sing #22) Knee-deep in flowers we'll stray We'll keep the showers away #23) I was born as a part of the plan With the heart of a man With a will to survive And I believe everything on this earth Having meaning and worth #24) And then he swung from the tree and he lit on the ground And he started to rock, really rocking around It was a crazy ditty with a swinging tune #25) ------------ Tie-breakers ------------ Blonde-haired good-lookin' Tryin' to get me hooked Want me to marry, get a home, Settle down, write a book #T1) One night farmer Brown was takin' some air He locked up the barnyard with the greatest of care Down in the henhouse somethin' stirred When he shouted, "Who's there?" this is what he heard #T2) ______________________________________________________________________ Please fill in the following information at the end of each line: Name(s) = E-mail address = Age(s) [will be published if provided] = Number of people (including you) who contributed to your answers = ______________________________________________________________________
