Twenty Tiny Fingers

Performer(s): Stargazers
and multiple other artists



Oooooh! Twenty tiny fingers, twenty tiny toes
Two angel faces, each with a turned up nose
One looks like mummy, with a cute little curl on top
And the other one's got a big bald spot
Exactly like his pop, pop, pop
Pop-a-dop, pop, pop
Pop-pop

She put on the light in the middle of the night
And whispered "Dear, let's go"
He grabbed a sock and called the Doc
He told him "Don't be slow"
I got her there with time to spare
And then I sat on pins
Until the Doctor shook his hand
And told him "You've got twins"

Oooooh! Twenty tiny fingers, twenty tiny toes
Two angel faces, each with a turned up nose
One looks like mummy, with a cute little curl on top
And the other one's got a big bald spot
Exactly like his pop, pop, pop
Pop-a-dop, pop, pop
Pop-pop

We've got cribs and bottles and bibs
All round our three roomed flat
No time to see what's on TV
No room to hang your hat
We're on the run, we're never done
It's like a steeplechase
They came in and they took over
Like they owned the place

Oooooh! Twenty tiny fingers, twenty tiny toes
Two angel faces, each with a turned up nose
One looks like mummy, with a cute little curl on top
And the other one's got a big bald spot
Exactly like his pop, pop, pop
Pop-a-dop, pop, pop
Pop-pop

It's twice the laundry, twice the milk
It's twice the baby clothes
It's double this and double that
Oh how the money goes
But now, you see, they both agree
When all is said and done
We've got twice the blessings
And we've got twice the fun

Oooooh! Twenty tiny fingers, twenty tiny toes
Two angel faces, each with a turned up nose
One looks like mummy, with a cute little curl on top
And the other one's got a big bald spot
The other one's got a big bald spot
Exactly like his 

Pop-pop

I Wonder Why I Worry Over You
Composer(s): Cindy Walker
Performer(s): Ernest Tubb



Dear you’re not worth the breath it takes to mention your name
I Wonder Why I worry Over You

The way you kick my love around it’s such a crying shame
I Wonder Why I worry Over You

Friends with good intentions all tell me to get smart
And runaway this very day before you break my heart
You’ll never change your wicked ways you’ll always be the same
I Wonder Why I worry Over You

Even when you know your wrong I still get the blame
I Wonder Why I worry Over You

If there’s an art for breaking hearts you could start a hall of Fame
I Wonder Why I worry Over You

If I walked out tomorrow it wouldn’t bother you
You’ve got another waitin’ now to see just what I do
And you’re not worth the breath it takes to mention your name
I Wonder Why I worry Over You

Kissing You Goodbye
Composer(s): Waylon Jennings
Performer(s): Waylon Jennings



I've learned to turn the other cheek 
Is not what love's about
I've turned mine so many times 
That i damned near wore 'em out
I've grown used to your abuse
And I thought I'd never quit
But I woke up this morning
Couldn't find my shiv-a-git
You've always liked to play your games
Well I got one for you
Pretend we're playing checkers girl
And it's your time to move
You'll find your suitcase on the porch
And the taxi in the drive 
Get your tongue out of my mouth
I'm kissing you goodbye 

I see you've finally made it home 
You been out all night
Your artificial hair's a mess 
And your clothes don't fit you right
 
I've given and forgiven
Till there ain't nothing left
But all you gave was just enough
To satisfy yourself

I can smell that whiskey in your hair  
And sen-sen on your breath 
If you ever tried to tell the truth
You'd choke yourself to death 

I don't want your nasty kisses 
And don't tell me no more lies 
Get your tongue out of my mouth
   
I'm kissing you goodbye
Get your tongue out of my mouth
I'm kissing you goodbye

Twenty Miles
Composer(s): Dave Appell - Barry Mann
Performer(s): Chubby Checker; Dean Ford & The Gaylords; Brian Poole & the Tremeloes



Twenty miles from my house to your house
Twenty miles and I walk it all the way
Twenty miles when you’re in love is nothin’
And I got to see my baby every day

I walk along
I sing a song
Twenty miles is a long long way
But I got to see my baby every day

Lots of girls are ridin’ near to my house
Pretty girls they keep passin’ by all day
Lots of girls but I don’t even see ‘em
Cause the girl I love is twenty miles away

I walk along
I sing a song
Twenty miles is a long long way
But I got to see my baby every day

Oh ho

I walk along
I sing a song
Twenty miles is a long long way
But I got to see my baby every day

Twenty miles is a long long way
But I got to see my baby every day
Oh hey Twenty miles

Dont' know why I love you like I do, don't know why I do

Don't know why I love you, don't know why I care
I just want your love to share

I wonder why, I love you like I do
Is it because I think you love me too
I wonder why, I love you like I do, like I do

I told my friends that we would never part
they often said that you would break my heart
I wonder why they think that we will part, we will part

When you're with me, I'm sure you're always true
When I'm away, I wonder what you do
I wonder why I'm sure you're always true, always true

Don't know why I do

I will fly a yellow paper sun in your sky
When the wind is high, when the wind is high
I will float a silken silver moon near your window
If your night is dark, if your night is dark

In letters of gold on a snow white kite
I will write "I love you"
And send it soaring high above you
For all to read

I will scatter rice paper stars in your heaven
If there are no stars, if there are no stars
All of these and seven wonders more will I find
When the wind is high, when the wind is high

In letters of gold on a snow white kite
I will write "I love you"
And send it soaring high above you
For all to read

[... verse in Cantonese? ...]

In letters of gold on a snow white kite
I will write "I love you"
And send it soaring high above you
For all to read

24 Hours At A Time
Composer(s): Toy Caldwell
Performer(s): The Marshall Tucker Band



I been down around Houston, Texas, where the sun shines most of the time
I been driving for about six hours, trying to reach that Arkansas line
Texarkana's just an hour ahead; I gotta keep my wheels rolling

But woman you're always on my mind, 24 hours at a time
Somehow, woman, I'm hoping you feel the same way

Woman, you know that I miss you
But I can't miss you no more 
I got this White doing 70 miles an hour 
She's loaded, it's down to the floor 
But I got to reach that Arkansas line before the sun goes down

But woman you're always on my mind, 24 hours at a time
Somehow, woman, I'm hoping you feel the same way

Woman you know I need you
I been on the road so much
Try to make connected highways
We got to keep in touch someway

I been down around Houston, Texas, where the sun shines most of the time
I been driving for about six hours, trying to reach that Arkansas line
Texarkana's just an hour ahead; I gotta keep my wheels rolling

But woman you're always on my mind, 24 hours at a time
Somehow, woman, I'm hoping you feel the same way

Feel the same way...

I wonder why I love you I’m just crazy over you
I wonder why

Talking to myself about you over again
But if I knew the answer then no more I’d complain
I wonder why

Composer(s): Cat Stevens
Performer(s): Cat Stevens



I work in the morning, I work in the night 
the men on the block, they just laugh at me 
I work in the morning, I work in the night 
the men on the block, they just laugh at me 

But when they're wiping their silver spoons 
palming the men for some bread, 
I'll be laughing 
Way, way out of my head! When my little kitty gets out 
there's gonna be a party, a party no doubt 
When my little kitty gets out 
there's gonna be a party 

And if my mind isn't coming so fast 
the men on the block say I'm on the brink 
And if my mind isn't coming so fast 
and I ain't so dumb as some people think 

Cause when they're wiping their silver spoons 
palming the men for some bread 
I'll be laughing, way, way out of my head

I Wonder Who's Kissing Her Now?
Composer(s): Frank Adams; Will Hough; Joseph E. Howard; Harold Orlob
First performance: Henry Burr - 1909
Covered by multiple other artists



You have loved lots of girls in the sweet long ago
And each one has meant heaven to you
You have vowed your affection to each one in turn
And have sworn to them all you'd be true
You have kissed 'neath the moon
While the world seemed in tune
Then you've left her to hunt a new game
Does it ever occur to you later boy
That's she's prob'ly doing the same?

I wonder who's kissing her now
Wonder who's teaching her how?
Wonder who's looking in to her eyes?
Breathing sighs! 
Telling lies!
I wonder if she's got a boy?
The girl who once filled me with joy
Wonder if she ever tells him of me?
I wonder who's kissing her now?

If you want fo feel wretched and lonely and blue
Just imagine the girl you love best
In the arms of some fellow who's stealing a kiss
From the lips that you once fondly pressed
But the world moves a pace and the loves of today
Flit away with a smile and a tear
So you never can tell who is kissing her how
Or just whom you'll be kissing next year

I wonder who's kissing her now
Wonder who's teaching her how?
Wonder who's looking in to her eyes?
Breathing sighs! 
Telling lies!
I wonder who's buying the wine?
For lips that I used to call mine
Wonder if she ever tells him of me?
I wonder who's kissing her now?

Kitty From Kansas City
Composer(s): Harry Rose; Jesse Greer
Performer(s): Rudy Vallée



I have traveled everywhere in most every state
I've met girlies here and there and I think they're great
But there's one that pleased me and squeezed me and teased me
Down old Missouri way

Her name was Kitty, from Kansas City
Sure was a pity she wasn't pretty
Hey, Hey she's not hard to see
She weighs two-forty three
I hope she doesn't get much fatter
But if she does, it doesn't matter
Kitty from Kansas City
Now there's a girl that I adore
She's so dumb, she doesn't know a thing
She thinks that July the Fourth is an English King! 
I love her, I love her, that's easy to see 
It's Kansas City Kitty for me

Her name was Kitty, from Kansas City
Sure was a pity she wasn't pretty
Hey, Hey I loved her just because
She's not the girl she was
How she can cook, and she can wash
But when she starts to love
Oh, Gosh! 
It's Kitty from Kansas City
Now there's a girl that I adore
She's so dumb, her brain is in a whirl
Why she thinks that Babe Ruth, is a chorus girl! 
I love her, I love her, and I'm up a tree
It's Kansas City Kitty for me

There are twenty four hours of sunshine
Every day that you're in love
There are twenty four hours of sunshine
And flowers and rainbows up above

Let the rain fall, the night fall
Or anything that might fall
There's one thing you're positive of

There are twenty four hours of sunshine
Every day that you're in love

When you love somebody who loves you too
It's funny how sunny the day is
There's a golden glow in the sky of blue
And each month is as sunny as May is

There are twenty four hours of sunshine
Every day that you're in love
There are twenty four hours of sunshine
And flowers and rainbows up above

Let the rain fall, the night fall
Or anything that might fall
There's one thing you're positive of

There are twenty four hours of sunshine
Every day that you're in love
You're in love
Every day that you're in love

Will be your sweet man
When I'm gone?

Who's gonna carry your business on? 

Yes, I would marry you 
But I'd marry you too soon
So I guess you're gonna have to wait
Until after your honeymoon

I wonder who 
Will be your sweet man
When I'm gone?

Who's gonna carry your business on?

Kitty In The Basket
Composer(s): Bob Merrill
Performer(s): Diana Decker



(Miaow.........Miaow)

If there's someone in the city doesn't want a little kitty
Tell them put the little kitty in a basket
Leave the little basket outside my door
And I'll love the little kitty for evermore

Wrap the kitty warm, you never know about a storm
And I don'y want a little kitty with the sneezes
I'll hug her and I'll squeeze her, never never tease her
Want a little kitty in a basket

No matter 'bout the colour of her nosey
Don't care if she's a fella or a girl
Don't have to be as pretty as a posey
And I promise not to laugh if she only has a half-a-tail

If there's someone in the city doesn't want a little kitty
Tell them put the little kitty in a basket
Leave the little basket outside my door
And I'll love the little kitty for evermore

Savin' up a dollar and I'm gonna buy a collar
If she's lookin' for a home, please won't ya ask it
Don't want a little tiskit, or a little tasket
Just a little kitty in a basket

I'll warm her milk and dress her in pyjamas
I'll make a bed for her in Daddy's shoe
And if she starts in cryin' for her mama
She can bring along her mama and her sisters and her brothers too

Don't have to be as pretty as a posey
And I promise not to laugh if she only has a half-a-tail

If there's someone in the city doesn't want a little kitty
Tell them put the little kitty in a basket
Leave the little basket outside my door
And I'll love the little kitty for evermore

Wrap the kitty warm, you never know about a storm
And I don'y want a little kitty with the sneezes
I'll hug her and I'll squeeze her, never never tease her
Want a little kitty in a basket

I'll hug her and I'll squeeze her, never never leave her
Want a little kitty in a basket

Twenty Four Hours
Composer(s): Ian Curtis - Peter Hook - Stephen Morris - Bernard Sumner
First recording: Joy Division - 1979
Covered by multiple other artists



So this is permanence, love's shattered pride
What once was innocent, turned on it's side
A cloud hangs over me, marks every move
Deep in the memory, of what once was love
Oh how I realised how I wanted time
Put into perspective, tried so hard to find
Just for one moment, thought I'd found my way
Destiny unfolded, I watched it slip away
Excessive flash points, beyond all reach
Solitary demands for all I'd like to keep
Let's take a ride out, see what we can find
A valueless collection of hopes and past desires
I never realised the lengths I'd have  to go    
All the darkest corners of a sense I didn't know
Just for one moment, I heard somebody call
Looked beyond the day in hand, there's nothing there at all
Now that I've realised how it's all gone wrong
Gotta find some therapy, this treatment takes too long
Deep in the heart of where sympathy held sway
Gotta find my destiny, before it gets too late

I Wonder Where My Easy Rider's Gone?
Composer(s): Shelton Brooks
Performer(s): Sophie Tucker
and multiple other artists



Miss Susie Johnson is a crazy as can be
About that easy riding kid they call Jockey Lee
Now don't you think it's funny, only bets her money
In the race friend jockey's goin' to be
There was a race down at the track the other day
And Susie got an inside tip right away
She bet a "hundred to one" that her little "Hon"
Would bring home all the "mon"
When she found out "Jockey" was not there
Miss Susie cried out in despair

I wonder where my easy rider's gone today
He never told me he was goin' away
If he was here he'd win the race
If not first he'd get a "place"
Cash in our winnings, on a "joy-ride" we'd go, right away
I'm losing my money that's why I am blue
To win a race, Lee knows just what to do
I'd put all my junk in pawn
To be on any horse that jockey's on
Oh' I wonder where my easy rider's gone

K-K-K-Katy
Composer(s): Geoffrey O'Hara
Performer(s): Buddy Clark; Mitch Miller; 
Billy Murray; Jon English



Jimmy was a soldier brave and bold
Katy was a maid with hair of gold
Like an act of fate
Kate was standing at the gate
Watching all the boys on dress parade
Jimmy with the girls was just a gawk
Stuttered ev'ry time he tried to talk
Still that night at eight
He was there at Katy's gate
Stuttering to her this love sick cry

K-K-K-Katy, beautiful Katy
You're the only g-g-g-girl that I adore
When the m-m-m-moon shines
Over the cowshed
I'll be waiting at the k-k-k-kitchen door
K-K-K-Katy, beautiful Katy
You're the only g-g-g-girl that I adore
When the m-m-m-moon shines
Over the cowshed
I'll be waiting at the k-k-k-kitchen door

No one ever looked so nice and neat
No one could be just as cute and sweet
That's what Jimmy thought
When the wedding ring he bought
Now he's off to France the foe to meet
Jimmy thought he'd like to take a chance
See if he could make the Kaiser dance
Stepping to a tune
All about the silv'ry moon
This is what they hear in far off France

K-K-K-Katy, beautiful Katy
You're the only g-g-g-girl that I adore
When the m-m-m-moon shines
Over the cowshed
I'll be waiting at the k-k-k-kitchen door
K-K-K-Katy, beautiful Katy
You're the only g-g-g-girl that I adore
When the m-m-m-moon shines
Over the cowshed
I'll be waiting at the k-k-k-kitchen door

Covered by multiple other artists



Ooh, well I got a girl with a record machine
When it comes to rockin' she's the queen
We love to dance on a Saturday night
All alone where I can hold her tight
But she lives on the twentiest floor uptown
The elevator's broken down

So I walked one, two flight, three flight, four
Five, six, seven flight, eight flight, more
Up on the twelfth I started to drag
Fifteenth floor I'm a-ready to sag
Get to the top, I'm too tired to rock

When she calls me up on the telephone
Say, come on over honey, I'm all alone
I said, baby you're mighty sweet
But I'm in bed with the achin' feet
This went on for a couple of days
But I couldn't stay away

Well they sent to Chicago for repairs
Till it's a-fixed I'm a-usin' the stairs
Hope they hurry up before it's too late
Want my baby too much to wait
All this climbin' is a-gettin' me down
They'll find my corpse draped over a rail
But I climbed one, two flight, three flight four

I burned up ev'ry letter
And thought that I'd feel better
I put away her picture too
Sent back each little present
And though it wasn't pleasant
It seemed the wisest thing to do
I've done ev'rything I could and yet
It isn't very easy to forget

I wonder where my baby is tonight
I wonder how my baby is tonight
I wonder where she's gone and how she's getting on
I wonder why my baby doesn't write

If she came back I wonder what I'd do
I wonder did she find somebody new
She didn't treat me fair and though I shouldn't care
I wonder where my baby is tonight

I wonder does my baby do the Charleston, Charleston
I wonder who is teaching her the Charleston, Charleston
While I sit and sigh, the time goes draggin' by
I'd like to kill the guy who wrote the Charleston, Charleston

We parted 'cause I couldn't do the Charleston, Charleston
She'd still be here if I could do the Charleston, Charleston
I'm takin' lessons now,; I'll win her back somehow
I wonder where my baby is tonight
