I'm Going To Climb The Blue Ridge Mountains Back To You
Composer(s): Robert Levenson; George B. McConnell



Somewhere in the Blue Ridge Mountains 
far above the sad blue sea 
somewhere there's a heart that's yearning 
that is where I long to be 
In my dreams you're near and yet so far 
I'll come back to where you are

I can see the love light gleaming, guiding me along the way
to a little lonely cabin where I'll be with you for aye 
As we sit beside the cabin door, I'll sing this refrain once more

I'm on my way back to you 
like the mountains, dear, I know you're blue 
Tho' the road is hard and long 
still my love has grown so strong 
that I'd follow you the whole world through 
Where the mountains and the skies above are bluer
I will find someone I know is truer than skies above 
pretty mountains rose, doll up in your gingham clothes 
I'm goin' to climb the Blue Ridge Mountains back to you

Evening: Time To Get Away
Composer(s): John Lodge
Performer(s): The Moody Blues



Evening has come to pass
The time of day doesn't last
Evening has earned its place today
I'm tired of working away

Working, living it brings
Only way to have those things
Toiling has bought too many tears
Turn round all those past years

Evening time to get away
Evening time to get away
Evening time to get away
Till next day

Live all you people 
You can see where you're at
It doesn't really hurt you
So that can depend

Evening time to get away

Live all you people 
You can see where you're at
It doesn't really hurt you
So that can depend

Evening time to get away
Evening time to get away

I'm Going Home

Performer(s): Tim Curry & Chorus
and multiple other artists



Dr. Frank-N-Furter:
On the day I went away (Goodbye)
Was all I had to say (Now)
I want to come again and stay (Oh my)
Smile, and that will mean I may
'Cause I've seen blue skies
Through the tears in my eyes
And I realise I'm going home (I'm going home)
Everywhere, it's been the same (Feeling)
Like I'm outside in the rain (Wheeling)
Free to try and find a game (Dealing)
Cards for sorrow
Cards for pain
'Cause I've seen blue skies
Through the tears in my eyes
And I realsze I'm going home
(I'm going home)
(I'm going home)
(I'm going home)

Midnight winds are landing at the end of time
Midnight winds are landing at the end of time
A true story wants to be mine
A true story wants to be mine
The story is telling a true lie
The story is telling a true lie
Mandolins are ringing to his viol singing
Mandolins are ringing to his viol singing

Midnight winds are landing at the end of time
Midnight winds are landing at the end of time
Dungeon's sinking to a slumber to the end of time
Dungeon's sinking to a slumber to the end of time
Petrel sings the domebells pound into the unended end of time
Petrel sings the domebells pound into the unended end of time

Midnight winds are landing at the end of time
Midnight winds are landing at the end of time
In the morning of my winter
When my eyes are still asleep
In the morning of my winter
When my eyes are still asleep
A dragonfly laying in a coat of snow
I'll send to kiss your heart for me
A dragonfly laying in a coat of snow
I'll send to kiss your heart for me

Midnight winds are landing at the end of time
Midnight winds are landing at the end of time
The children are jumping in the evening of light
The children are jumping in the evening of light
A thousand sins are heavy in the evening of light
A thousand sins are heavy in the evening of light

Midnight winds are landing at the end of time
Midnight winds are landing at the end of time

I'm Going Higher Someday
Performer(s): Bill Gaither, Gloria Gaither, & Homecoming Friends



I'm going higher, yes higher someday
I'm going higher, yes higher to stay
Over the mountain, beyond the blue sky
Going where none ever sicken or die
Loved ones will meet in that sweet by and by
I'm going higher someday

Often my soul has been lifted above
Lost in the ocean of God's mighty love
Higher and higher, but once still I say
I'm going higher someday

I'm going higher, yes higher someday
I'm going higher, yes higher to stay
Over the mountain, beyond the blue sky
Going where none ever sicken or die
Loved ones will meet in that sweet by and by
I'm going higher someday

Soon will the Saviour appear, bless His name
And in a moment, we all will be changed
Then when he calls for his bright come away
We're going higher someday

I'm going higher, yes higher someday
I'm going higher, yes higher to stay
Over the mountain, beyond the blue sky
Going where none ever sicken or die
Loved ones will meet in that sweet by and by
I'm going higher and higher and higher

I'm going higher, yes higher someday
I'm going higher, yes higher to stay
Over the mountain, beyond the blue sky
Going were none ever sicken or die
Loved ones will meet in that sweet by and by
I'm going higher someday
I'm going higher someday
I'm going higher and higher and higher and higher someday
Someday

Evening In June
Composer(s): Van Morrison
Performer(s): Van Morrison



By the light of the moon
When the night holds the secrets
Of the sleepy lagoon
I´m contemplating moonlight
On the water
When I´m walking with you
On an evening in June

On an evening in June
It can get so sentimental
When I´m thinking of you
And I can´t think of anything
Except being with you
When the summer is through
On an evening in June

On an evening in June
Well it lifts me up
When I´m talking to you
On an evening in June
When the flowers are in bloom
And the sky is so blue

Well there´s so many things
Taking place
That it´s hard to keep up with it all
Keep your eye on the ball
And to make the right call
When we´re longing for fall
On this evening in June

On an evening in June
Well it lifts me up
When I´m talking to you
On an evening in June
When the flowers are in bloom
And the sky is so blue

Well there´s so many things taking place
That it´s hard to keep up with it all
Keep your eye on the ball
And to make the right call
When we´re longing for fall
On this evening in June
By the sleepy lagoon
On an evening in June
By the light of the moon
By the sleepy lagoon
On an evening in June
On an evening in June
By the sleepy lagoon
By the light of the moon
By the sleepy lagoon
On an evening in June

I'm Going Back To Where I Came From
Composer(s): Jessie Mae Robinson
Performer(s): Spike Jones



I'm goin' back to where I come from
Where the honeysuckle smells so sweet it durn near makes you sick
I used to think my life was hum-drum
But I sure have leared a lesson that is bound to stick
There ain't no use of me pretendin'
The city just ain't no place for a guy like me to end in
Goin' back to where I come from
Where the mockin' bird is singin' in the lilac bush

I used to go down to the station
Every evenin' just to watch the Pullman train come rollin' in
And then one night, that great temptation
Got too great, so I just up and left my kith and kin
I took my hat and fourteen dollars
And I went through all the troubles of the plight that always follows
When you're rich and huntin' romance
But my huntin' days are over, I can tell you that

I met a man in Kansas City
An' he winked and asked me if I'd like to step around
I said "Why, yes, why sure, that's what I'm here for, betcha life"
So he said he'd take me to the hottest spots in town
He mentioned things he'd have to fix up
So he took my fourteen dollars but there must have been a mix up
He's been gone since Monday evenin'
And I've gotta hunch I'll never see that guy no more

I'm goin' back to where I come from
Where the mockin' bird is singin' in the lilac bush

Evenin'
Composer(s): Mitchell Parish; Harry White
Performer(s): Cab Calloway;
and various other artists



Evenin'
Ev'ry night you come and you find me, oh Lord
And you always come and remind me, oh yes
That my gal is gone, my baby's gone, oh Lord, my baby's gone

Evenin'
Can't you see I'm deeply in your power, oh Lord?
Every minute seems like an hour, oh Lord
Since my gal, she's gone, my baby's gone, my baby's gone

Now shadow's fallin', well,
Are on the wall
That's the time I miss your kiss, most of all
Even though I try, how can I go on, oh yes, go on
Pretty baby

Evenin'
Let me sleep 'til the gray dawn is breakin', oh yes
I don't care if I don't awaken, oh Lord
Since my gal she's gone, my baby's gone, oh yes she's gone

Evenin'
Let me sleep 'til gray dawn is breakin', oh Lord
I don't care if I don't awaken, oh yes, since my gal she's gone
My baby's gone, my baby's gone
My baby's gone

I'm Going Back To Carolina
Composer(s): Billy Downs; Ernie Erdman



Don't ask me why I'm leaving
You see I'm not grieving
I'm really feeling grand 
I'm waiting for the train dear
that takes me back again dear 
To sweet old Dixieland
I'm thru with all the bright lights
The Cafes and the white lights
The hurly burly noise of old Broadway 
I hear that engine puffing
Believe me I'm not bluffing
good bye, I'm on my way

I'm glad that I'm returning
For years I have been yearning
To see my home again
I seem to hear the crickets a chirping in the thickets
Way down in lover's lane
It makes me feel like yelling
Ma's homemade pies I'm smelling 
Oh gee, I'm just as happy as can be 
I'll feel a grand sensation 
When I see my home station
I'm on my way, fare thee

I'm going back, back, back to Carolina 
That's where I belong 
I'm going back, to Carolina 
And join the Dixie throng
come along come along 
I know the folks will all be glad to see me 
Just for Auld Lang Syne 
Here comes my train, ding, dong
Toot - toot
Farewell, so long 
I'm going back to Carolin'

Even Though You're Gone
Composer(s): Kenny Gamble; Leon Huff
Performer(s): The Jacksons



[Chorus:]
Gotta find a way somehow
Nothing's gonna stop me now
Gotta find a way somehow
Even though you're gone

Things don't look as bad
As they did yesterday
Every minute I get
Stronger somehow ... some way
'Cause I gotta keep on living
I got the will to survive
Even though I feel so bad
So bad inside

[Chorus]

All the plans I had
I've got to give them up
And start anew
Making plans for one
Instead of making plans for two
From now on I'll be thinking
Thinking 'bout myself
It'll be a long time
Before I love somebody else

[Chorus]

I depended on you
For everything
Oh, I really trusted you
How could you do me the
Way you did
You really let me down

[Chorus]

I'm Goin' Back To Louisiana (Where The Bright Moon Shines)
Composer(s): Floyd Thompson; E. Clinton Keithley



I long to be roamin' down in Louisiana 
with my lover's gal, only pal
Floatin' on the river while the moon is shinin' 
With my lovin' gal, only pal 
The whippoor will is callin' from the distant shore
I hear the banjos ring 
Darkies sing
In Louisiana 
Dear Louisiana
There is where my heart will ever cling

I don't know why I ever roamed from Louisiana and my Dixie home 
Dixie home
There among the cotton fields I lived the sweetest days I ever known 
Ever known
Tonight I'm goin' to sail along the Mississippi river on my way 
On my way
And I know tomorrow I'll be free from sorrow
See my lovin' gal at break of day

I'm goin' back to Louisiana where the bright moon shines
I'm goin' back to Louisiana and to that old gal of mine 
When I get back we ain't a goin' to tarry
We're a goin' to find a Preacher man and marry
In the beautiful garden of Louisiana 
Where the bright moon shines

Even The Nights Are Better 
Composer(s): Ken Bell; Terry Skinner; J.L. Wallace
Performer(s): Air Supply;
and various other artists



I, I was the lonely one
Wondering what went wrong
Why love had gone
And left me lonely
I, I was so confused
Feeling like I'd just been used
Then you came to me
And my loneliness left me

I used to think I was tied to a heartache
That was the heartbreak
But now that I've found you

Chorus
Even the nights are better
Now that we're here together
Even the nights are better
Since I found you

You, you knew just what to do
Cause you had been lonely too
And you showed me how
To ease the pain

And you did more
Than mend a broken heart
Cause now you've made a fire start
And I, I can see that you feel
The same way

I never thought there'd be someone to hold me
But then you told me
And now that I've found you

Chorus

Even the days are brighter
When someone you love's beside ya
Even the nights are better
Since I found you
Even the losers get lucky sometimes

Even The Losers
Composer(s): Tom Petty
Performer(s): Tom Petty And The Heartbreakers;
Nectarine; Los Secretos



Well, it was nearly all summer we sat on your roof 
Yeah, we smoked cigarettes and we stared at the moon 
And I'd show you stars you never could see 
Baby, it couldn't have been that easy to forget about me 

Baby, time meant n othing, anything seemed real 
Yeah, you could kiss like fire and you made me feel 
Like every word you said was meant to be 
No, it couldn't have been that easy to forget about me 

Baby, even the losers get lucky sometimes 
Even the lo sers keep a little bit of pride 
They get lucky sometimes 

Two cars parked on the overpass, 
Rocks hit the water like broken glass 
I should have known right then it was too good to last 
God, it's such a drag when you're livin' in the past 

Baby, even the losers get lucky sometimes 
Even the losers keep a little bit of pride 
They get lucky sometimes 

Baby, even the losers get lucky sometimes 
Even the losers keep a little bit of pride 
Yeah, they get lucky sometimes 

Baby, even the losers get lucky sometimes 
Even the losers get lucky sometimes 

Even the losers get lucky sometimes 
Even the losers get lucky sometimes 
Even the losers get lucky sometimes

Composer(s): Lowell Fulson; Fats Washington
Performer(s): Lowell Fulson



I'm glad you reconsidered, baby
I'm glad you're comin' back home to me
I'm glad you reconsidered, baby
I'm glad you're comin' back home to me
Ever since you been gone
I been in so much misery

Tears fell from my eyes
When your letter said you was on your way
Like a child I cried
When you said you was on your way
You know I felt so good
When you said you're comin' back home to stay

I'm gonna be right there
When your train comes rollin' in
I'm gonna be right there, baby
When your train comes rollin' in
I'm gonna hold you in my arms
And you please to never leave me again

Wanna Hear It?

Composer(s): Peter Callander; Mitch Murray
Performer(s): The Tremeloes



There are times in this life of mine
I think that the sun forgot how to shine
But as long as you're always there
it don't bother me 'cos why should I care
when all I've gotta do is run to you

Even the bad times are good, soon as I get to you baby
you just gotta hold me and even the bad times are good
Even the bad times are good, soon as I get to you baby
you just gotta kiss me and even the bad times are good
La, la la la la la la,la la
La, la la la la la la,la la

When the day seems to drag along
and all that I do is workin' out wrong
Still I find that I never cry
as long as I know that you're standing by
Then all I've gotta do is run to you

Chorus

La, la la la la la la,la la
La, la la la la la la,la la ...

I'm Glad There Is You
Composer(s): Paul Madeira; Jimmy Dorsey
First release by: Jimmy Dorsey & His Orch. - 1946
Covered by multiple other artists



In this world of ordinary people
Extraordinary people
I'm glad there is you
In this world of overrated pleasures
Of underrated treasures
I'm glad there is you
I live to love, I love to live
With you beside me
This role so new I'll muddle through
With you to guide me
In this world where many, many play at love
And hardly any stay in love
I'm glad there is you
More than ever
I'm glad there is you

In this world where many, many play at love
And hardly any stay in love
I'm glad there is you
More than ever
I'm glad there is you

Even Now 
Composer(s): Marty Panzer; Barry Manilow
Performer(s): Barry Manilow



Even now when there's someone else who cares
When there's someone home who's waiting just for me
Even now I think about you as I'm climbing' up the stairs
And I wonder what to do so she won't see that

Even now when I know it wasn't right
And I've found a better life than what we had
Even now I wake up crying in the middle of the night
And I can't believe it still could hurt so bad

Even now when I have come so far
I wonder where you are,
I wonder why it's still so hard without you

Even now when I come shining through, I swear I think of you
And how I wish you knew, even now

Even now when I never hear your name
And the world has changed so much since you've been gone
Even now I still remember and the feelings still the same
And this pain inside of me goes on and on, even now

Even now when I have come so far
I wonder where you are
I wonder why it's still so hard without you

Even now when I come shining' through I swear I think of you
and God, I wish you knew
Somehow, even now

I'm Glad That I'm Bugs Bunny
Composer(s): Alan Livingston; Warren Foster; Mike Maltese; Billy May
Performer(s): Mel Blanc



I got big funny ears, they are so long and flat
They are the very reasons I never wear a hat
My teeth stick out in front 
Like pickets in a fence
And as far as riches go, I'm not worth two cents

So I'm glad to be the way I am, Who cares if I look funny?
No matter what the others have, I'm glad that I'm Bugs Bunny!

Suppose I was an Elephant, then I'd be really sunk
For every place I'd ever go, I'd have to take my trunk!
Suppose I was a Zebra, with stripes from head to tail
I'd bet they'd think that I'd escaped, and throw me back in jail!

So I'm glad to be the way I am, Who cares if I look funny?
No matter what the others have, I'm glad that I'm Bugs Bunny!

Suppose I was a tall Giraffe, and swallowed carrots, yummy!
With that long neck, I'd surely starve before they reached my tummy
Suppose I was a big fat pig I might as well be frank
I wouldn’t care to end up as some kiddie’s piggy bank

So I'm glad to be the way I am, Who cares if I look funny?
No matter what the others have, I'm glad that I'm Bugs Bunny!

What’s up, Doc?

Suppose I was a smelly skunk, I wouldn’t have a friend
I’d be alone excepting for, A cent I couldn’t spend
Suppose I was a ‘Gator in the swamps where time would drag
Until the day when I’d be made into a travelling bag

So I'm glad to be the way I am, Who cares if I look funny?
No matter what the others have, I'm glad that I'm Bugs Bunny!

Suppose I was a turkey then I’d end up on a tray
In the middle of the table on the next Thanksgiving Day
Suppose I was a Bullfrog, croaking out a not
I’d dread the time when I would be, a frog in someone’s throat!

So I'm glad to be the way I am, Who cares if I look funny?
No matter what the others have, I'm glad that I'm Bugs Bunny!

Even It Up
Composer(s): Sue Ennis; Ann Wilson; Nancy Wilson
Performer(s): Heart; Wicked Peach; Nancy Wilson



"I'm the one who can please you"
Ain't that what you said
You seemed so alone
I guess I was easily led

I showed you my love
But I guess that it went to your head
When you were hungry
I brought you your breakfast in bed

Even it up, even it up, even it up
Even it up, even it up, even it up
A good man pays his debt
But you ain't paid yours yet
Even it
Even it up

I took you down over the tracks when
you wanted some sin
I brought you satin and herbs from
the places I been
Now something tells me you're
going to use me again
You think you can lay down the how and
the where and the when

Even it up, even it up, even it up
Even it up, even it up, even it up
I don't want to bum it all
But this axe she got to fall
Even it
Even it up

I'm Glad I'm Not Young Anymore
Composer(s): Alan Jay Lerner; Frederick Loewe
Performer(s): Maurice Chevalier



Poor boy! Poor boy!
Down-hearted and depressed and in a spin
Poor boy! Poor boy!
Oh, youth can really do a fellow in!

How lovely to sit here in the shade
With none of the woes of man and maid
I'm glad I'm not young anymore

The rivals that don't exist at all
The feeling you're only two feet tall
I'm glad that I'm not young anymore

No more confusion
No morning-after surprise
No self-delusion
That when you're telling those lies
She isn't wise

And even if love comes through the door
The chance that goes on forevermore
Forevermore is shorter than before
Oh, I'm so glad that I'm not young anymore

The tiny remark that tortures you
The fear that your friends won't like her too
I'm glad I'm not young anymore
The longing to end the stale affair
Until you find out she doesn't care
I'm glad that I'm not young anymore

No more frustration
No star-crossed lover am I
No aggravation
Just one reluctant reply
"Lady, goodbye!"

The Fountain of Youth is dull as paint
Methuselah is my patron saint
I've never been so comfortable before
Oh, I'm so glad that I'm not young anymore
