Pennsylvania six-five-thousand
Pennsylvania six-five-thousand
Pennsylvania six-five-oh-oh...

Oh, Joseph, Joseph, won't you make your mind up
It's time I knew just how I stand with you
My heart ????? ???? that I could stop and wonder
Each time we make up after being through
So, listen Joseph, Joseph time is fleeting
And here and there my hair is turning grey
My Mother has a fear, wedding bells we'll never hear
Joseph, Joseph, won't you name the day

Tick-a-tick ?????????????????
Tick-a-tick ?????????????????

And he had to be leaving ??????????????????

Tick-a-tick ?????????????????
Tick-a-tick ?????????????????
?????????????????????????????
So he ???????????????????????

Choo choo to Broadway from Cincinnati
Don't get icky with the one two three
Life is just so fine on the solid side of the line, rip

Hold tight, hold tight, hold tight, hold tight 
Fododo-de-yacka saki
Want some sea food mama 
Shrimps and rice they're very nice

Hold tight, hold tight, hold tight, hold tight 
Fododo-de-yacka saki
Want some sea food mama 
Shrimps and rice they're very nice 

Roll out the barrel
We'll have a barrel of fun
Roll out the barrel
We've got the blues on the run
Zing boom tararrel
Ring out a song of good cheer
Now's the time to roll the barrel
For the gang's all here

Don't sit under the apple tree
With anyone else but me
Anyone else but me
Anyone else but me
No! No! No!
Don't sit under the apple tree
With anyone else but me
Till I come marching home

Don't start walking down lovers lane
With anyone else but me
Anyone else but me
Anyone else but me
No! No! No!
Don't start walking down lovers lane
With anyone else but me
Till I come marching home

I just got word from the guy who works
For a guy next door to me
The girl he met just loves to pet
And it fits you to a tee
So,
Don't sit under the apple tree
With anyone else but me
Till I come marching home

(Instrumental - "Moonlight Serenade")

Mama dear, come over here
And see who's looking in my window
It's the butcher boy and oh
He's got a bundle in his hand

Tell me why he winks his eye 
Whenever he goes by my window
Daughter, daughter he's in love 
And you're in love and love is grand

Aye, Marie! I gotta pork chop
Aye, Marie! I gotta lamb chop
So, 'ya wanta marry me?

The butcher boy, the butcher boy
She wants to marry the butcher boy
Aye, Oh! Ma-Ma

To do the polka from Pennsylvania

And it's shining on the water

Out on track twenty-nine
And you can gimme a shine

To board the Chattanooga choo choo
I-I-I've got my fare
And just a trifle to spare

You leave the Pennsylvania Station
'Bout a quarter to four
Read a magazine
And then you're in Baltimore
Dinner in the diner
Nothing could be finer
Than to have your ham
An' eggs in Carolina

When you hear the whistle blowin'
Eight to the bar
Then you know that Tennessee
Is not very far
Shovel all the coal in
Gotta keep it rollin'
Woo, woo, Chattanooga
There you are

She's gonna cry
Until I tell her that I'll never roam
So Chattanooga choo choo
Won't you choo-choo me home?
So Chattanooga choo choo
Won't you choo-choo me home?

Whose Heart Are You Breaking Now?
Composer(s): Floyd Jenkins
Performer(s): Bob Wills & His Texas Playboys
and multiple other artists



Not long ago we loved each other
And we were as happy as can be
Now you are happy with another
I suppose that you've forgotten me

I am the one that you fooled yesterday
Whose heart are you breakin' now
You took our romance and threw it away
Whose heart are you breakin' now

What has become of the love I once knew
What have you done with each vow
Somebody else is a king for a day
Whose heart are you breakin' now

I am the one you left all alone
Whose heart are you breakin' now
You are the one with a heart made of stone
Whose heart are you breakin' now

I used to think you would always be mine
But ev'rything's diff'rent now
You're laughing now, but someday you'll atone
Whose heart are you breakin' now

Kersebloesem Van Yokohama
Performer(s): Mary Servaes (aka Zangeres Zonder Naam)



In ‘n theehuis bij de Foetsiejama
zong ‘n geischa zacht haar ‘n droevig lied
Over liefde in ‘t verre Yokohama
waar ‘n zeeman haar voorgoed verliet
Hij was gekomen over blauwe oceanen 
zij betoverend door z’n mooie blonde haren
Ze vonden liefde in de roze kersenlanen
 op zachte bloesem beminde zei elkaar

Refrein
Kersebloesem in Yokohama, 
kersebloesem geurend in de nacht
Heeft ‘n kleine zwarte Geischa
veel geluk maar ook verdriet gebracht
Kersebloesem in Yokohama
bittere tranen kleine Geischa

De andere avond was hij weer gekomen
en haar hartje stond in vuur en vlam
Ze gingen snel weer naar de kersenbomen
waar hij zacht haar in z’n armen nam
Maar als de anderen morgen vroeg de klanken klinken
ziet m’n haar wenend aan de stille kade staan
‘t Is of de wereld voor haar voeten weg zal zinken
nu zij door tranen zijn schip weer weg ziet gaan

Refrein
Kersebloesem in Yokohama, bracht tranen kleine Geischa

Let The Water Run Down
Composer(s): Russell
Performer(s): Ben E. King; P.J. Proby



I remember you, turning on the faucets
I let the water run
I didn't want to let them hear me when I'm cryin'
Or let them see what she had done

Oh-ooh...
(Let the water run down) Let the water run, let it pour
(??? ??? like a river)
(Let the tears fall down) Let it pour
(Dum-dee-dum-dum, dee-dum-dum)

So I locked the door and looked in the mirror
I don't like what I see
A fool, what a fool lookin' out of the mirror
Cryin' all those tears at me

Oh-ooh...
(Let the water run down) Let the water run, let it pour
(??? ??? like a river)
(Let the tears fall down) Oh-ooh, let it pour
(Dum-dee-dum-dum, dee-dum-dum)

I hear them waiting by the door
At their pounding on the floor
They're yellin', "Are you comin' out"
Ooh, I wish they wouldn't doubt
All I need is one minute more
Then I'll open up the door
And this is what I'll say
"I'm alright.....uum-uum, it's alright"
"I'm alright, I'm alright"

I'm not about to hear ya...
(Let the water run down) Oh, let it pour
(????? ???? like a river)
Let the tears fall down the hole
(???? ???? ???? ???? ????)

So I reach for the towel, I wipe my eyes
I go out and join the crowd
You know I danced with a girl
She was a wrong, wrong girl
And my heart is cryin' out loud

Oh-ooh...
(Let the water run down) Let it roll, let it pour
(????? ???? like a river)
Let the tears fall down the hole
C'mon now...
(Let the water run down) Let it roll, let it pour
(??? ??? like a river)
Let the tears run down the hole
I wanna hear ya
(Let the water run down)

I'd Wait A Million Years
Composer(s): Gary Zekley; Mitchell Bottler
Performer(s): The Grass Roots; Material Issue



All of the lonely nights
Waiting for you to come, longing to hold you tight
I need you so desperately
Waiting for you to come bringing your love to me [but]

I'd wait a million years
Walk a million miles, cry a million tears
I'd swim the deepest sea
Climb the highest hill, just to have you near me

As love is reality
When you are near to me, I am in ecstacy
I'd swallow the pain and pride
Baby, I just can't hide all that I feel inside [and]

I'd wait a million years
Walk a million miles, cry a million tears
I'd swim the deepest sea
Climb the highest hill, just to have you near me

A million years, I would wait for you
A million tears, baby I'd be true
A million miles, I would follow you
A million years, if you want me to

Pacing the floor, detest
Sweat pouring down my chest, still I can't love you less
It's worth all the pain and pride
Baby, I just can't hide all that I feel inside [and]

I'd wait a million years
Walk a million miles, cry a million tears
I'd swim the deepest sea
Climb the highest hill, just to have you near me

Kevin Barry
Traditional Celtic Song
Performer(s): The Clancy Brothers;
and various other artists



In Mountjoy jail one Monday morning
High upon the gallows tree
Kevin Barry gave his young life
For the cause of liberty
But a lad of eighteen summers
Yet no one can deny
As he walked to death that morning
He proudly held his head on high

Just before he faced the hangman
In his dreary prison cell
British soldiers tortured Barry
Just because he would not tell
The names of his brave companions
And other things they wished to know
"Turn informer or we'll kill you"
Kevin Barry answered, "no"
Calmly standing to attention
While he bade his last farewell
To his broken hearted mother
Whose grief no one can tell
For the cause he proudly cherished
This sad parting had to be
Then to death walked softly smiling
That old Ireland might be free

Another martyr for old Ireland
Another murder for the crown
Whose brutal laws may kill the Irish
But can't keep their spirit down
Lads like Barry are no cowards
From the foe they will not fly
Lads like Barry will free Ireland
For her sake they'll live and die

Go On Laugh, Little Girl
((French Version: Tu t'Amuses (Charles Aznavour))
Composer(s): Charles Aznavour - Georges Garvarentz - B. Kaye
Performer(s): Charles Aznavour - 1969



Go on laugh, little girl
I said a funny thing
Go on laugh, little girl
If it amuses you, then the thing to do is laugh
Enjoy the joke on me
I only said I loved you
And you driving me mad
You think it's all so funny
That's what makes it so sad
It's alright, little girl
Don't let it bother you
Treat it light, little girl
There really isn't anything important at stake
Just my heart that will break
Hearts were meant to be broken
They are so frequently
Why make mine the exception
Go on, break it for me
Go on laugh, little girl
I said a funny thing
Bend in half little girl
Until your eyes are wet
From the laugh you get from me
Enjoy the one-man show
I made myself look foolish
I had no other choice
My heart was filled with love words
I couldn't stop its voice
Have a ball, little girl
Ignore the things I say

I'd Still Be There
Composer(s): Johnny Cash; Johnny Horton
Performer(s): Johnny Cash



I overlooked a lot of things I knew I should have done
I did things that I'm sorry for, I lived to have my fun
But now the world that once was bright is empty and bare
And if you wouldn't be ashamed of me, I'd still be there

I'd be with you, where I belong
And nothing they could do or say could make me think it's wrong
If all the love that made you mine could make you still care
I'd be by your side, I'd still be there

I'd give the world if I could only have you close to me
I'd pray the Lord to keep you safe wherever you may be
Don't let anybody share the things we used to share
If I only knew you loved me too, I'd still be there

I'd be with you, where I belong
And nothing they could do or say could make me think it's wrong
If all the love that made you mine could make you still care
I'd be by your side, I'd still be there

Key Largo
Composer(s): Bertie Higgins; Sonny Limbo
Performer(s): Bertie Higgins



Wrapped around each other
Lying in each other's arms
That first cold winter together
Trying so hard to stay warm
Watching those old movies
Falling in love so desperately
Honey I was your hero
And you were my leading lady

(chorus)
We had it all
Just like Bogie and Bacall
Starring in our old late, late show
Sailing away to Key Largo

Honey can't you remember
We played all the parts
That sweet scene of surrender
When you gave me your heart
Please say you will...play it again
Cause I love you still
Baby this can't be the end

Chorus

Here's lookin at you kid
Missing all the things we did
We can find it once again, I know
Just like they did in Key Largo

Chorus

Boy Meets Girl
Performer(s): Don Lang & His Frantic Five



Something happens whenever that music's played
Number one on everyone's hit parade
Ev'ry invitation to the dance
Could be the beginning of romance
Life is a crazy whirl, a-boy meets girl

Make that music frantic or make it sweet
No one can resist such an easy beat
Oh, the moment that they turn the lights down low
You can feel the grooves begin to go
Life is a crazy whirl, a-boy meets girl

The music stops, it's time to break away
But there's a chance that she might want to stay

So, play that record on any old juke machine
Ev'ry guy's a king, ev'ry gal's a queen
When you find the one that you adore
You can hoild her close for evermore
Life is a crazy whirl, a-boy meets girl

Oh, the music stops, it's time to break away
But there's a chance that she might want to stay

So, play that record on any old juke machine
Ev'ry guy's a king, ev'ry gal's a queen
Oh, when you find the one that you adore
You can hold her close for evermore
Life is a crazy whirl, a-boy meets girl
Boy meets girl
Boy meets girl

I'd Really Love To See You Tonight
Composer(s): Parker McGee
First release by: England Dan & John Ford Coley - 1976
Covered by multiple other artists



Hello, yeah, it's been a while
Not much, how 'bout you?
I'm not sure why I called
I guess I really just wanted to talk to you
And I was thinking maybe later on
We could get together for a while
It's been such a long time
And I really do miss your smile

I'm not talking 'bout moving in
And I don't want to change your life
But there's a warm wind blowing
The stars are out, and I'd really love to see you tonight

We could go walking through a windy park
Or take a drive along the beach
Or stay at home and watch t.v.
You see, it really doesn't matter much to me

I'm not talking 'bout moving in
And I don't want to change your life
But there's a warm wind blowing
The stars are out, and I'd really love to see you tonight

I won't ask for promises
So you won't have to lie
We've both played that game before
Say I love you, then say goodbye

I'm not talking 'bout moving in
And I don't want to change your life
But there's a warm wind blowing
The stars are out, and I'd really love to see you tonight

Key To Love
Composer(s): John Mayall
Performer(s): John Mayall & Eric Clapton;
Debbie Davies; Gary Moore



I never realized that you were in pain
I wanna help you honey, let me see you again
Hurts my soul, babe, when I find you feeling rough
Life is so bad, baby, when I find the key to love

Put a smile on your face and dry away your tears
Life is bound to get better as you live your years
Hurts my soul, babe, when I find you feeling rough
Life is so bad, baby, when I find the key to love

Somewhere in this world, the one you waited for
Come along and find you, turn the key your door
Hurts my soul, babe, when I find you feeling rough
Life is so bad, baby, when you find the key to love

Angel D'amore
Composer(s): Aviles - John - Poll - Strom
Performer(s): Hank Hermans; Shirley Bassey



(Angel d'amore, angel d'amore)
Angel d'amore, answer my plea
Angel d'amore, send him to me
Make him see
That the love I bear in my heart for him
Is a love I'll share ever more with him
Angel d'amore
Please won't you answer my prayer?
Angel d'amore, answer my plea
Angel d'amore, send him to me
Make him see
That I'd steal a star from the sky for him
He could break my heart and I'd die for him
Angel d'amore, answer my plea
Send my love back to me
Oh, please won't you answer my prayer?

I'd Rather Ride Around With You
Composer(s): Mark D. Sanders; Tim Nichols
Performer(s): Reba McEntire



My cousin's gettin' married at the Methodist church
That's why I stayed home from work
I'm supposed to hold the flowers
When the new bride kisses the groom
That's what I'm supposed to do
So what are we doin' with the windows rolled down
Twenty five passionate miles from town
I love her like a sister baby but to tell you the truth
I'd rather ride around with you

The guy she's gonna marry's got money to burn
His daddy's a partner in some big law firm
Yeah that's how they're goin'
To Hawaii on their honeymoon
First class to Honolulu
She's never even set foot on a jet
I'm a little bit jealous I confess
I'd like to fly to Hawaii
But honey if I had to choose
Oh I'd rather ride around with you

I don't care where this road goes
No I don't wanna turn around
Let go of the wheel feel the wind blow
Don't even think about slowin' down

They're tyin' tin cans to the back of the car
Wonderin' where in the world we are
The preacher's done prayin'
And the couple's done sayin' I do
That could be me and you
There's way too many decisions to make
The length of the dress
The layers on the cake
Oh, one of these days I might get married too
But I'd rather ride around with you

I don't care where this road goes
No I don't wanna turn around
Let go of the wheel feel the wind blow
Don't even think about slowin' down

'Cause I'd rather ride around with you
Oh I'd rather ride around with you

Key To The Highway

Performer(s): Jesse Fuller;
and various other artists



I've got the key to the highway
Yes I'm billed out and bound to go
I'm gonna leave here runnin'
'Cause walking's just too slow

I'm going back to the border
Where I'm better known
'Cause you haven't done nothin'
But broke up our happy home

Now give me one more kiss baby
Yes before I go
'Cause when I leave here this time baby
I 'clare I won't be back no more

So long, goodbye
Yes I have to say goodbye
'Cause I'm gonna walk, walk this old highway
Until the day I die

Adiós Mi Corazón
Composer(s): Otha Young
Performer(s): Juice Newton



Lost in this small hotel somewhere south of the border
Trying to sleep through the heat of a Mexican night
Somehow the words I once had so easily mastered
Left me like you did, with nothing to say
 
¿Puedes oirme tú, amor?
Adiós, mi corazón, how I love you
¿Puedes oirme tú, amor?
Adiós, mi corazón
I hope the words are right
They're the only words I know tonight
 
????? the paradise, but the beauty escapes me
Everything should be so right for falling in love
Two hearts belong, but one heart remains so unhappy
Nothing else matters to me, no, nothing at all
 
Ooooooohhhhh, ¿puedes oirme tú, amor?
Adiós, mi corazón, how I love you
¿Puedes oirme tú, amor?
Adiós, mi corazón
Hope the words are right
They're the only words I know tonight
 
Oh, the nights are never ending
You know why, no comprende
Days are longer than you'll ever know
Adiós, mi corazón
 
Ooooooohhhhh, ¿puedes oirme tú, amor?
Adiós, mi corazón, how I love you
¿Puedes oirme tú, amor?
Adiós, mi corazón
Hope the words are right
They're the only words I know tonight
 
Ooooooohhhhh, ¿puedes oirme tú, amor?
Adiós, mi corazón, how I love you
 
¿Puedes oirme tú, amor?
Adiós, mi corazón...

I'd Rather Leave While I'm In Love
Composer(s): Peter Allen; Carole Bayer Sager
First release by: Carole Bayer Sager - 1977
Covered by multiple other artists



I'd rather leave while I'm in love
while I still believe the meaning of the word
I'll keep my dreams and just pretend
that you and I are never gonna end

Too many times I've seen
the rose die on the vine
somebody's heart gets broken
usually it's mine
I don't want to take the chance
of being hurt again
and you and I can't say good-bye

So if you wake and find me gone
oh baby carry on you see I need my
fantasy I still believe it's best
to leave while I'm in love

Too many times I've seen
the rose die on the vine
somebody's heart gets broken usually
It's mine I don't want to take
the chance of being hurt again
and you and I can't say good-bye

So if you wake and find me gone
oh baby carry on you see I need my
fantasy I still believe it's best to
leave while I'm in love I still believe
It's best to leave while I'm in love

Key's In The Mailbox

Performer(s): Buck Owens
and multiple other artists



For jealous me and careless you the odds were just too great
I couldn't take those lonely nights you made me sit and wait
I thought I'd seen the last of you when you walked out of sight
Instead I see you in my dreams each night
Oh, the key's in the mailbox, come on in
I'm sittin' here wishin', dear, I had your love again
I'd never even ask you where you've been
The key's in the mailbox, come on in
I said I'd rather be alone than share your company
I said don't come around at all if you want more than me
But sittin' here alone I can't deny this flame that burns
I'd gladly take you back on any terms
Oh, the key's in the mailbox, come on in
I'm sittin' here wishin', dear, I had your love again
I'd never even ask you where you've been
The key's in the mailbox, come on in

The Christmas Riddle
Composer(s): Peggy Lee - Stella Castelucci
Performer(s): Peggy Lee



Children, may I tell a riddle
Of someone who's dear to you
Maybe you will guess the answer
Long before I'm through

(Riddle, a riddle, oh, tell us a riddle)
(Tell us a riddle, please do)

Well, long ago there lived a bishop
Who was such a kindly man
All his life was spent in giving
That was how it all began

And they say he rode a white horse
As he went from door to door
Giving presents, sweets and good things
Need I tell you any more

(Riddle, a riddle, it still is a riddle)
(Tell us, oh, please tell us more)

Next the legend says, the children
Would leave hay in a wooden shoe
For the white horse he was riding
Now you have another clue

(You gave us a clue, you gave us a clue)
(About hay in a wooden shoe)

He has many another name
In many another far off land
But no matter what the language
Every child will understand

Well now, when you hang your stocking
He was why that all began
All the World has kept the custom
Of this kind and saintly man

(We've got it, we've got it, we just guessed the riddle)
(We know how it all began)

Yes, you know now 'twas Saint Nicholas
For giving gifts, he was the cause
Some have named him dear Kris Kringle
Others call him Santa Claus

And much like the sweet Dutch children
Would leave hay in a wooden shoe
Others leave some for the reindeer
And give presents too

(The riddle, the riddle, we guessed the riddle)
(The riddle of dear old Saint Nick)

The riddle of old Saint Nick

I'd Rather Lead A Band
Composer(s): Irving Berlin
Performer(s): Fred Astaire
and multiple other artists



I haven't ambitions for lofty positions
That wind up with the wealth of the land
I'll give you the throne that a king sat on
For just a small baton
Providing you included a band

If I could be the wealthy owner of a large industry
I would say, "Not for me"
I'd rather lead a band

If I could be a politician with a chance to dictate
I would say, "Let it wait"
I'd rather lead a band

My ev'ry care ceases
I'm rich as old Croesus
When I've got ten pieces
In hand

If I could have a millionairess with a whole flock of banks
I would just whisper "Thanks"
I'd rather lead a band

Give me a band, yes sir
And not a thing lesser
To be that professor
Is grand

If Josephine had left Napoleon and climbed in my lap
I'd say, "Go back to Nap"
I'd rather lead a band

A saxophone, a slide trombone
A bass fiddle and a drum
A guy at the piano who makes it hum
A violin, a clarinet
A hot trumpet and guitar
And me with the baton and there you are
