Oh That's Good, No That's Bad Composer(s): DeWayne; Richard Blackwell Performer(s): Sam The Sham & The Pharaohs; Nine Pound Hammer
(Ohhhhh, that's bad!) No, that's good!
Not long ago I was walking down the street When a woman in a car knocked me off my feet (Ohhhhh, that's bad!) No, that's good!
My insurance paid me a lot of dough More money than I'd seen in a year's payroll (Ohhhhh, that's good!) No, that's bad!
My doctors' bills is where my money went And all I had left was a very bad limp (Ohhhhh, that's bad!) No, that's good!
'Cause the way I walked got me a role As the marshall's partner on a TV show Pretty young actresses started hanging 'round And every night we'd do the town
(Ohhhhh, that's good!) No, that's bad!
I ended up back in a hospital bed 'Cause my horse fell on my bad leg (Ohhhhh, that's bad!) No, that's good!
'Cause just when I was feeling my worst I fell in love with a beautiful nurse (Ohhhhh, that's good!) No, that's bad!
'Cause I found out she was the doctor's wife Now I'll be in a wheelchair the rest of my life 'Cause no matter how I pleaded and begged He operated on my good leg
Oh So Many Years Composer(s): Frankie Bailes Performer(s): The Everly Brothers; and various other artists
All these many years I've loved you no one has ever known No one has ever known but you alone I've kept it locked inside my heart and smiled through all my tears My darling I have loved you Oh so many years
Each night within my lonely room I cried dear over you and prayed to God that things would turn out right But when the dawn of day appears I brush away my tears My darling I have loved you Oh so many years
I'll go on pretending that my life is all so gay and happy dear without you by my side When all the time my heart is longing just to have you near My darling I have loved you Oh so many years
Maybe fate will lead us down a path where we will meet again and then we'll both be free to love anew Then one sweet kiss from your dear lips will banish all my fears My darling I have loved you Oh so many years
Oh No, Not My Baby Composer(s): Gerry Goffin; Carole King Performer(s): Manfred Mann; and various other artists
"Oh no, not my baby; oh no, not my sweet baby Oh no, not my baby; oh no, not my sweet baby Not my girl"
When my friends told me you had someone new I didn't believe a single word was true I told them all I had faith in you I just kept on sayin'
"Oh no, not my baby; oh no, not my sweet baby She don't go with other guys & I don't think she would tell me lies" My mama told me when rumors spread There's truth somewhere & I should use my head But I didn't listen to a word she said I kept right on sayin'
"Oh no, not my baby; oh no, not my sweet baby She's not like these other girls, you see & I believe she's in love with me Oh no no no no no, not my girl"
Well, you might have had a last-minute fling But I am sure it didn't mean a thing 'Cause yesterday you accepted my ring & now I'm glad that I just kept on sayin'
"Oh no, not my baby; oh no, not my sweet baby Oh no, not my baby; oh no, not my sweet baby Not my girl, not my girl"

Oh Mr. Dream Man (Please Let Me Dream Some More) Composer(s): Jimmie V. Monaco Performer(s): Ada Jones
Talk about your funny dreams I had one of them, it seems And it made me feel so goody, goody 'T wasn't sad Nothing bad Just about someone that I could love If this dream does not come true Then I know what I will do I will kneel down on my knees and pray until I dream and dream and this I'll say
I'd be satisfied with life Just to be his little wife I would and squeeze and tease and please him Night and day Till he'd say: "You're the one that I've been looking for" Oh, I wish he would be mine I would love him all the time! Then I know I'd be so happy, happy No more would I pray and need to say
Oh, Mister Dream Man please let me dream some more Just like the dream I had the night before I dreamt about a lovin' man, he was so sweet! And when he started lovin' me, my heart began to beat And when he kissed me H-m-m-m-m-m! He made me ask for more He's a prize I idolize his great big dreamy dark brown eyes Oh, Mister Dream Man I want to dream some more
Hoy viene a mi la damisela soledad con pamela, impertinentes y botón de amapola en el oleaje de sus vuelos Hoy la voluble señorita es amistad y acaricia finalmente el corazón con su más delgado pétalo de hielo
Por eso hoy gentilmente te convido a pasear por el patio, hasta el florido pabellón de aquel árbol que plantaron los abuelos Hoy el ensueño es como el musgo en el brocal dibujando los abismos de un amor melancólico, sutil, pálido cielo
Viene a mí, avanza viene tan despacio viene en una danza leve en el espacio
Cedo, me hago lacio y ya vuelo, ave Se mece la nave lenta como el tul en la brisa suave niña del azul
Oh melancolía, novia silenciosa íntima pareja del ayer Oh melancolía, amante dichosa siempre me arrebata tu placer Oh melancolía, señora del tiempo beso que retorna como el mar Oh melancolía, rosa del aliento dime quién me puede amar
