You say you've got a real solution
Well you know we'd all love to see the plans
You ask me for a contribution
Well you know we're all doing what we can
#01)
What's that honey?
Pick you up at eight?
And don't be late?
But baby I ain't got no money honey
#02)
And when you touch down
You'll find that it's stranger than known
Signs in the street that say where you're going
Are somewhere just being their own
#03)
Chantilly lace and a pretty face
And a ponytail a-hangin' down
A wiggle and a walk and a giggle and a talk
Lord have mercy make the world go round round round
#04)
Have faith, hope, and charity
That's the way to live successfully
How do I know?
#05)
A young boy just seventeen
Just beginning to realize and explore his teenage dreams
Why did God call him oh so far away?
Maybe to help some boy or girl who might have gone astray
#06)
Let me hear you say the words I want to hear
Darling when you're near
#07)
Each time we have a quarrel
It almost breaks my heart
'Cause I am so afraid
That we will have to part
#08)
How does it feel?
How does it feel?
To be without a home
Like a complete unknown
#09)
Time goes by
It's a-passin' fast
You think your lover has come at last
By and by you're gonna find
Crazy lovin' has made you blind
#10)
There must be some kind of way out of here
Said the joker to the thief
#11)
Do you remember baby
Last September
How you held me tight
Each and every night
Well whoops-a-daisy how you drove me crazy
#12)
You're gonna tell me sweet things
You're gonna say my heart sing
Well you're gonna make those bells ring
#13)
Well a city slicker came and he said I'm tough
I think I wanna taste that powerful stuff
He took one swift slug and he drank it right down
And I heard him a-moanin as he hit the ground
#14)
But it don’t make no difference baby, no no
And I know that I could always try
It don’t make no difference baby, yeah
I better hold it now
I better need it yeah
I better use it till the day I die
#15)
Come along with me
We'll dance until morning till there's just you and me
And maybe if the music is right
I'll meet you tomorrow sort of late at night
#16)
Again and again and again and again and
Again and again and again and again and
Again and again and again and again and
Again
#17)
I've got to know the answer
Was it someone from above?
I wonder, wonder who-umba-do-do who
#18)
Poor man wants to be a rich man
The rich man wants to be a king
But the man who can sing when he hasn't got a thing
#19)
I'm all dressed up for the dance
#20)
You're mine, mine baby
And you'll always be (always be)
I love you so much (I love you so much my darling)
#21)
I'm gonna tell you how it's gonna be
You're gonna give your love to me
I'm gonna love you night and day
#22)
Yeah these cats from outer space
They were givin' it all
I could tell the way they jumped it
They were havin' a ball
They had me pattin' my feet and just a-clappin' my hands
They stopped just long enough to say, "Crazy, man"
#23)
Since she left me
I've never been the same
'Cause I love my girl
#24)
Don't you know
That I love you and want you so
Come back baby
Come back home
Say you love me and never again roam
#25)
------------
Tie-Breakers
------------
You keep a-packin' up my clothes
Nearly everybody knows
That you're still just a-puttin' me on
When I start a-walkin'
Gonna hear you start a-squawkin'
And a-beggin' me to come back home
#T1)
It's a weak man that cries
So I guess I'd better dry my eyes
Yes I will miss her more than anyone
#T2)
