A Little Love And Understanding ((French Version: Un Peu D'amour Et D'amitié (by Gilbert Bécaud)) Composer(s): Louis Amade - Gilbert Bécaud - Marcel Stellman Performer(s): Bing Crosby; LadybiRdS
You're on your own And what you need's A little love and understanding, hee-hee-hee A little warmth to tell your soul A gentle bird that softly sings, hee-hee-hee-hee
Each night my voice happens to sneak Through your transistor radio, ho-ho-ho I'm just a secret you can keep And no one ever needs to know
You're in that city far away I'm on the ship way out at sea You got some problems you can't face So leave them behind, any place
For out of sight is out of mind And in time, and in time, and in time, and in time, and in time You'll find peace of mind Ho-ho-kay-ay (okay), good, good
You're room is like a desert isle You often filled with silent tears, hmm-hmm-hmm So grab your coat, put on a smile Go out and buy yourself some cheer, hee-hee-hee-hee Why sit there thinking of the past Recounting empty days gone by, hah-hah-hah When you should make each moment last It isn't hard to do, just try
Drink to the city far away To all the sailors 'way at sea All those problems you can't face So leave them behind, any place
For out of sight is out of mind And in time, and in time, and in time, and in time, and in time You'll find peace of mind O-kay, hm-hm, (okay), good
Hot Love Composer(s): Marc Bolan Performer(s): T. Rex
Well she's my woman of gold And she's not very old - a ha ha Well she's my woman of gold And she's not very old - a ha ha I don't mean to be bold, a-but a-may I hold your hand?

Well she's faster than most and she lives on the coast - a ha ha Well she's faster than most and she lives on the coast - a ha ha I'm her two-penny prince and I give her hot love - a ha ha Ow - ow - mh
Well she ain't no witch and I love the way she twitch - a ha ha Well she ain't no witch and I love the way she twitch - a ha ha I'm her two-penny prince and I give her hot love - a ha ha
La-la-la-la-la-la-la .... Ooh ooh, oh don't you do .... Ooh ooh, lay it all down .... Ooh ooh, jetzt kommt sie doch, mh .... Ooh ooh, mm-ba-ba-ba ....
A Little Less Conversation Composer(s): Billy Strange - Mac Davis Performer(s): Elvis Presley
A little less conversation, a little more action please All this aggravation ain't satisfactioning me A little more bite and a little less bark A little less fight and a little more spark Close your mouth and open up your heart and baby satisfy me Satisfy me baby
Baby close your eyes and listen to the music Drifting through a summer breeze It's a groovy night and I can show you how to use it Come along with me and put your mind at ease
A little less conversation, a little more action please All this aggravation ain't satisfactioning me A little more bite and a little less bark A little less fight and a little more spark Close your mouth and open up your heart and baby satisfy me Satisfy me baby
Come on baby I'm tired of talking Grab your coat and let's start walking Come on, come on Come on, come on Come on, come on Don't procrastinate, don't articulate Girl it's getting late, gettin' upset waitin' around
A little less conversation, a little more action please All this aggravation ain't satisfactioning me A little more bite and a little less bark A little less fight and a little more spark Close your mouth and open up your heart and baby satisfy me Satisfy me baby
Hot Legs Composer(s): Gary Grainger; Rod Stewart Performer(s): Rod Stewart
Who's that knocking on my door It's gotta be a quarter to four Is it you again coming 'round for more Well you can love me tonight if you want But in the morning make sure you're gone I'm talkin' to you Hot legs, wearing me out Hot legs, you can scream and shout Hot legs, are you still in school I love you honey
Gotta most persuasive tongue You promise all kinds of fun But what you don't understand I'm a working man Gonna need a shot of vitamin E By the time you're finished with me I'm talking to you Hot legs, you're an alley cat Hot legs, you scratch my back Hot legs, bring your mother too I love you honey
Imagine how my daddy felt in your jet black suspender belt Seventeen years old He's touching sixty four
You got legs right up to your neck You're making me a physical wreck I'm talking to you Hot legs, in your satin shoes Hot legs, are you still in school Hot legs, you're making me a fool I love you honey
Hot legs, making your mark Hot legs, keep my pencil sharp Hot legs, keep your hands to yourself I love you honey Hot legs, you're wearing me out Hot legs, you can scream and shout Hot legs, you're still in school I love you honey
A Little Kiss Is A Kiss Is A Kiss Performer(s): Connie Stevens
La la la la la la la la la la La la la la la la la la la la La la la la la la la la la la La la la la la la la la la la
A little kiss is a kiss is a kiss A little sigh is a sigh is a sigh A little hug leads to moments like this And love is love, but nobody knows why
My heart is jumpin', you got it pumpin' I don't know what, but you started somethin' I can't explain it, I'm ring-a-dingin' All through the night in your arms, I'm singin'
A little kiss is a kiss is a kiss A little sigh is a sigh is a sigh A little hug leads to moments like this And love is love, but nobody knows why
I get desires, such crazy urges When you are near me, the moon emerges I try to fight it, it keeps recurrin' And I could kiss till you've got me purrin'
La la la la la la la la la la La la la la la la la la la la La la la la la la la la la la La la la la la la la la la la
I ask my father, I ask my mother They only smile as they nudge each other They say I'm too young, to speak about it I only know that I wanna shout it
A little kiss is a kiss is a kiss A little sigh is a sigh is a sigh A little hug leads to moments like this And love is love, but nobody knows why
La la la la la la la la la la La la la la la la la la la la La la la la la la la la la la La la la la la la la la la la
Hot Frogs On The Loose Composer(s): Fred Small Performer(s): Fred Small
By the light of the Tennessee moon From the bilious bubbles of a black lagoon They make a hound dog howl a Swat team swoon Hot frogs on the loose
They've multiplied since '53 Slurping nuclear debris Amphibious fabulous fancy free Hot frogs on the loose
Chorus: Hippity hoppity here they come Radioactive lookin' for fun If you kiss 'em look out for the tongue Hot frogs on the loose
They got little skinny legs and big bug eyes Fraternizing's not advised They like you like they like flies Hot frogs on the loose
They got a chicken nugget body and a whopper leap In your bedroom while you sleep They'll make your Geiger counter beep Hot frogs on the loose
Chorus
You can put the pedal to the metal till the rubber squeals Squish 'em with your tires you got hot wheels How you know how it feels to be a Hot frog on the loose
Please do not keep them as pets Sauteing them may bring regrets Make a citizen's arrest of a Hot frog on the loose
Frogs for peace frogs for defense Don't be nervous don't be tense We've got a sure-fire three-foot fence To keep the hot frogs from gettin loose
Hot Dusty Roads Composer(s): Stephen Stills Performer(s): Buffalo Springfield; The Chocolate Watchband
I'm a city boy and I stay at home I make no excuses, I just don't want to roam And I don't like being alone I'll give you loving and a place to take off your shoes It does surprising things for a case of the blues It ain't no club, you don't have to pay no dues You just love me and I'll love you And if you take some pride in being alive And you're interested in looking inside of yourself Just drop on by, baby ask me why At least you don't have to be by yourself Just come knock, most likely I'll be there Then you look around and find a comfortable chair And then you sit and you might think about why he's there I can't tell you why, only where
A Little Kiss At Twilight From the Paramount production "Give Me A Sailor" Composer(s): Leo Robin - Ralph Rainger Performer(s): Benny Goodman & His Orch.
A little kiss at twilight In a great big cozy chair In a home-made heaven we share alone A little kiss at twilight When the long blue shadows fall 'Round a small white cottage we call our own It's a dream, I know, but I know too Dreams like this often come true A little kiss at twilight I'd be waiting all day through For the one sweet moment at home with you
Hot Dog! That Made Him Mad Composer(s): Danny Barker; Don Raye Performer(s): Wanda Jackson; Betty Hutton; Carolyn Mark & The Room-Mates; Eve Selis
I've got a guy, I like him fine But he takes me for granted all of the time To teach him a lesson and make him mad I went out on a date with the best friend he had That made him mad boy, hot dog, that made him mad And he hugged me and he kissed me and he asked me not to do it again
Oh, late last night when I came in, he demanded to know just where I'd been But I really put him right in his place Instead of an answer, I laughed in his face That made him mad boy, hot dog, that made him mad So he hugged me and he kissed me and he asked me not to do it again
He said my heart is on my sleeve, and if I didn't change that he would leave Well, you shoulda seen him, was his face red when I laughed and told him just go right ahead That made him mad boy, hot dog, that made him mad So he hugged me and he kissed me and he asked me not to do it again
Well, the moral is, to play it cool Let your guy know you're nobody's fool When he gets to thinking you're all his own let him know that you can take him or leave him alone That makes him mad boy, hot dog, that makes him mad And he'll hug you and he'll kiss you and he'll ask you not to do it again
Yeah, he'll hug you and he'll kiss you He'll squeeze you and he'll please you And he'll ask you not to do it again
A Little Is Enough Composer(s): Pete Townshend Performer(s): Pete Townshend; Raphael Rudd; The Who
They say that love often passes in a second And you can never catch it up So I'm hanging on to you as though eternity beckon But it's clear that the match is rough Common sense's tell me not to try'n continue But I'm after a piece of that diamond in you So keep an eye open My spirit ain't broken Your love is so incredible Your body so edible You give me an overdose of love Just a little is enough
I'm like a connoisseur of champagne cognac The perfume nearly beats the taste I eat an oyster and I feel the contact But more than one would be a waste Some people want an endless line that's true But all I have is a little time with you A smile sets me reeling A kiss feel like stealing Your love is like heroin This addict is mellowing I can't pretend that I'm tough Just a little is enough
Just like a sailor heading into the seas There's a gale blowing in my face The high winds scare me but I need the breeze And I can't head for any other place Life would seem so easy on the other tack But even a hurricane won't turn me back You might be an island On the distant horizon But the little I see Looks like heaven to me I don't care if the ocean gets rough Just a little is enough
Common sense's tell me not to try'n continue But I'm after a piece of that diamond in you So keep an eye open My spirit ain't broken Your love is so incredible Your body so edible You give me an overdose of love A little is enough

Awwwwww, hot dog
Well I, well I, well I just got into town today To find my girl who's gone away She took the Greyhound at the general store I searched myself, I searched the town When I finally did sit down I find myself no wiser than before
She said we couldn't do no wrong No other love could be so strong She locked up my heart in her bottom drawer Now she took my heart, she took my keys From in my old blue dungarees And I'll never go to Texas anymore
Now my baby's gone I don't know what to do She took my love and walked right out the door And if I ever find that girl I know one thing for sure I'm gonna give her something like she never had before
I took her love at seventeen A little late these days it seems But they said heaven is well worth waiting for I took her word, I took it all Beneath the sign that said U-Haul She left angels hangin' round for more, ah go!
Well, now my baby's gone I don't know what to do She took my love and walked right out the door And if I ever find that girl I know one thing for sure I'm gonna give her something like she never had before
I thought I had it all sewn up Our love, a plot, a pick-up truck But folks said she was after something more I never did quite understand All that talk about rockin' bands But they just rolled my doll right out the door Ooh yeah, they just rolled my doll right out the door Well, they just rolled my doll right out the door
A Little Good News Composer(s): Charles Black - Rory Bourke - Thomas Rocco Performer(s): Anne Murray; BR5-49; Indigo Girls
I rolled out this morning Kids had the morning news show on Bryant Gumbel was talkin' 'bout the fighting in Lebanon Some senator was squawkin' 'bout the bad economy It's gonna get worse you see, we need a change in policy There's a local paper rolled up in a rubber band One more sad story's one more than I can stand Just once how I'd like to see the headline say "Not much to print today, can't find nothin' bad to say", because Nobody robbed a liquor store on the lower part of town Nobody OD'ed, nobody burned a single building down Nobody fired a shot in anger, nobody had to die in vain We sure could use a little good news todayI'll come home this evening I'll bet that the news will be the same Somebody takes a hostage, somebody steals a plane How I wanna hear the anchor man talk about a county fair And how we cleaned up the air, how everybody learned to care Whoa, tell me Nobody was assassinated in the whole Third World today And in the streets of Ireland, all the children had to do was play And everybody loves everybody in the good old USA We sure could use a little good news today Nobody robbed a liquor store on the lower part of town Nobody OD'ed, nobody burned a single building down ...
Nobody fired a shot in anger, nobody had to die in vain We sure could use a little good news today
Hot Dog Composer(s): Jerry Leiber; Mike Stoller Performer(s): Elvis Presley
Hot dog, you say you're really comin' back Hot dog, I'm waitin' at the railroad track Hot dog, you say you're comin' home for good Hot dog, I'm goin' keep on knockin' wood And baby I can hardly wait I'm gonna meet you at the gate, hot dog
I fell in love with you and then you went away But now you're comin' home to stay Hot dog, soon ev'rything will be all right Hot dog, we're gonna have a ball tonight I got a pocketful of dimes It's gonna be just like old times, hot dog
You went away and ev'ry day was misery But now you're comin' back to me Hot dog, my heart is gonna go insane Hot dog, when you come walkin' off the train You knop how lonely I have been But when that Santa Fe pulls in, hot dog, baby, hot dog
A Little Fish In A Big Pond Composer(s): Irving Berlin Performer(s): Eddie Albert & Mary McCarty
Horace: A little fish in a big pond has plenty of room to swim But swimming around are big fish all ready to pounce on him
Back to his little pond he starts to roam The little fish spreads his fins and begins to swim back home
That's me, a little fish in a big pond, all wrong That's me, a little fish where a little fish don't belong
A little man in a big town gets butterflies in his dome I'm ready to spread my fin and begin to swim back home To the little pond where a little fish and a little man belong
Maisie: A little fish in a big pond has gotta have lots of heart For swimming around are big fish, but if he's the least bit smart
Back to his little pond he doesn't go The little fish spreads his fins and begins to grow, grow, grow
That's you, a little fish in a big pond, all right Me too, a little fish, but we gotta stand up and fight
A little man in a big town don't have to get out and roam Stop taking it on the chin and begin to feel at home In the bigger pond where the bigger fish and the bigger men belong
Hot Dog Composer(s): Buck Owens; Danny Dedmon Performer(s): Corky Jones (aka Buck Owens); and various other artists
Well, my baby works in a hot dog stand A-making them hot dogs as fast as she can Up steps a cat and yells don't be slow And get me two hot dogs ready to go
Hot dog, she's my baby Hot dog, drives me crazy Hot dog, I don't mean maybe Well, you oughta see my baby at the hot dog stand
Well, in the cool of the evening when the sun goes down All the chicks and the cats all gather around They order hot dogs and red soda pop Then head down the road to a hep cat hop
Hot dog, she's my baby Hot dog, drives me crazy Hot dog, don't mean maybe Well, you oughta see my baby at the hot dog stand
Well, I'm a-waiting for my baby every night at twelve She closes up the shop and then we lose ourselves At a hep cat hop, in a crazy way We're a-doin' the bop till the break of day
Hot dog, she's my baby Hot dog, drives me crazy Hot dog, I don't mean maybe Well, you oughta see my baby at the hot dog stand
Hot dog, she's my baby Hot dog, drives me crazy Hot dog, I don't mean maybe Well, you oughta see my baby at the hot dog stand
