    Let's Think About Living
    Composer(s): Boudleaux Bryant
    Performer(s): Bob Luman
    and multiple other artists



    In every other song that I've heard lately
    Some fellow gets shot
    And his baby and his best friend both die with him
    As likely as not
    In half of the other songs
    Some Cat's crying, or ready to die
    We've lost most all of our happy people
    And I'm wondering why

    Let's think about living
    Let's think about loving
    Let's think about the whoopin' and hoppin
    And the boppin' and the lovie, lovie dovin'
    Let's forget about the whinin' and the cryin'
    And the shootin' and the dying
    And the fellow with the switchblade knife
    Let's think about living
    Let's think about life

    We lost old Marty Robbins
    Down in old El Paso a little while back
    And now Miss Patti Page, or one of them
    Is a-wearing black
    Cathy's Clown has Don and Phil
    Where they feel like a-they could die
    If we keep on a-losin' our singers like that
    I'll be the only one you can buy

    Let's think about living
    Let's think about loving
    Let's think about the whoopin' and hoppin
    And the boppin' and the lovie, lovie dovin'
    Let's forget about the whinin' and the cryin'
    And the shootin' and the dying
    And the fellow with the switchblade knife
    Let's think about living
    Let's think about life

    Brother Love's Traveling Salvation Show
    Composer(s): Neil Diamond
    Originally performed by: Neil Diamond
    Covered by various other artists



    Hot August night
    And the leaves hanging down
    And the grass on the ground smelling sweet
    Move up the road
    To the outside of town
    And the sound of that good gospel beat
    Sits a ragged tent
    Where there ain't no trees
    And that gospel group
    Telling you and me

    It's Love
    Brother Love's Traveling Salvation Show
    Pack up the babies
    Grab the old ladies
    Everyone goes
    Everyone knows
    Brother Love's show

    Room gets suddenly still
    And when you'd almost bet
    You could hear yourself sweat, he walks in
    Eyes black as coal
    And when he lifts his face
    Every ear in the place is on him

    Starting soft and slow
    Like a small earthquake
    And when he lets go
    Half the valley shakes

    It's Love, Love
    Brother Love's Traveling Salvation Show
    Pack up the babies
    Grab the old ladies
    Everyone goes
    Everyone knows
    Brother Love's show

    Sermon

    Take my hand in yours
    Walk with me this day
    In my heart, I know
    I will never stray
    Halle, halle, halle, halle, halle, halle, halle

    It's Love, Love
    Brother Love's Traveling Salvation Show
    Pack up the babies
    Grab the old ladies
    Everyone goes
    Everyone knows
    Brother Love's show
    Amen

    Let's Talk It Over
    Composer(s): Ian MacMillan
    Performer(s): Blue



    As I sit here in my loneliness
    Waiting for a friend to come, come to me
    I remember days of happiness
    And the way it used to be

    All the emptiness you left behind
    And the lonely tears I've cried, tried to hide
    When you know I'm only trying to find
    What I thought I had inside

    Don't say it's over
    Don't let it go
    Let's talk it over
    There's something I don't know

    But now I realise I lost a friend
    I should have known when it went wrong long ago
    I just find it hard to understand
    The way you let me know

    Don't say it's over
    Don't let it go
    Let's talk it over
    There's something I don't know
    Don't say it's over
    Don't let it go
    Let's talk it over
    There's something you should know

    Brother Louie
    French Title: Dis-Lui Pour Moi
    Composer(s): Erroll Brown; Anthony Wilson
    Originally performed by: Hot Chocolate
    Covered by various other artists



    She was black as the night
    Louie was whiter than white
    Danger, danger when you taste brown sugar
    Louie fell in love overnight
    Nothing bad, it was good
    Louie had the best girl he could
    When she took him home
    To meet her mama and papa
    Louie knew just where he stood
    Louie Louie Louie, Louie Louie Louie Louie
    Louie Louie Louie, Louie Louie you're gonna cry
    There he stood in the night
    Knowing what's wrong from what's right
    He took her home to meet his mama and papa
    Man, he had a terrible fright
    Louie nearly caused a scene
    Wishin' it was a dream
    Ain't no diff'rence between black and white
    Brothers, you know what I mean
    Louie Louie Louie

    Let’s talk
    Let’s talk
    Let’s talk about love

    If you got time to spare
    I’ve got a heart to share
    Anytime, or anywhere

    Let’s talk
    Let’s talk
    Let’s talk about love

    Some folks say love is blind
    But baby not my kind
    All I got’s a one track mind

    Let’s talk
    Let’s talk
    Let’s talk about love

    Every single moment I’m alone
    Feeling sad and blue
    Only wanna grab the telephone
    Call you up and make a date, at home, alone, with you

    So turn the lights down low
    Let’s watch a tv show
    Cuddle up and whaddaya know

    Let’s talk

    Let’s talk about love

    Every single moment I’m alone

    So turn the lights down low
    Let’s watch a tv show
    Cuddle up and whaddaya know

    Brother Heart
    Composer(s): Gary Kemp
    Performer(s): Gary Kemp



    When the colours of life seep out of your day
    and the truth that was standing is now crumbling away
    when the question is why does it spread like disease?
    And your rivers run dry, but you’re sunk to your knees

    When the sun brings the priest running over the fields
    and you’re sick to your soul of the lies and the deals
    When the moon brings the bleeding of a town in its fate
    and there’s no room for dreaming in the shelter of faith
    Oh, beat again brother heart, beat again brother heart

    When the lines of partition slash a scar through your breed
    and the mouths of agreement are all muted by greed
    When the lie of the land rolls into your night
    look into your soul and look for the light
    Oh, beat again brother heart, beat again brother heart

    Fly the wings of hope, take the branch to the dove
    change the story line, find the truth up above
    but when God seems to sleep and misses your life
    and your prayers fall to earth like shells in the night
    let your broken heart weep and bleed for what’s right
    look into your soul and look for the light
    Oh, beat again brother heart, beat again brother heart
    Oh, beat again brother heart, beat again brother heart

    Composer(s): Harold Arlen - Johnny Mercer
    Performer(s): Bing Crosby
    and multiple other artists



    Let’s take the long way home
    Let’s look for the long way home
    And on the way, let’s pretend
    That this wonderful night won’t end
    Through Asia would be much too soon
    We’ll circle once around the moon
    Our dream boat will carry us across the foam

    We’ll take the long way, make sure it’s the wrong way
    Let’s take the long was home
    Shall we fly through the night
    Shall we dream as we go?
    See the star on your right
    See the farm down below?
    The whole trip it appears
    Only takes a million years
    If you’re in the mood to roam
    Then let’s take the long way home

    Brother
    Composer(s): Rosalie Van Leer; Thijs Van Leer
    Performer(s): Focus



    I've never been unhappy or alone
    Each day daylight came back

    I always watched the stars
    Not thinking space big and dark

    Rains always were my friend
    The wind knew all my secrets

    Brother do you know that the times are hard
    Do you wanna see my eyes
    Make a start
    'Cause brother do you see that the times are hard
    I need love

    I do not fear the shadows of trees
    But city shadows don't move

    I saw a child of God. He was
    Someday to grow into the world

    Brother do you know that the times are hard
    Do you wanna see my eyes
    Make a start
    'Cause brother do you see that the times are hard
    I need love

    Let's Take An Old Fashioned Walk
    Composer(s): Irving Berlin
    Performer(s): Eddie Albert & Allyn McLerie
    and multiple other artists



    Some couples go for a buggy ride when they start caring a lot
    Others will bicycle side by side out to some romantic spot
    But when you haven't a sou, there's only one thing to do....

    Let's take an old fashioned walk, I'm just bursting with talk
    What a tale could be told if we went for an old fashioned walk
    Let's take a stroll through the park, down a lane where it's dark
    And a heart that's controlled may relax on an old fashioned walk

    I know for a couple who seem to be miles apart
    There's nothing like walking and having a heart-to-heart
    I know a girl who declined, couldn't make up her mind
    She was wrapped up and sold, coming home from an old fashioned walk

    I used to dream of a millionaire, handsome and rich from the States
    Taking me out for a breath of air, saying, "The carriage awaits"
    But since you haven't a sou and I have nothing to do....

    Let's take an old fashioned walk, I'm just bursting with talk
    What a tale could be told if we went for an old fashioned walk
    Let's take a stroll through the park, down a lane where it's dark
    And a heart that's controlled may relax on an old fashioned walk

    I know for a couple who seem to be miles apart
    There's nothing like walking and having a heart-to-heart

    Let's Have A Georgia Honeymoon
    Composer(s): Carter Benson - Bobby Lee



    When I hear those wedding chimes
    It makes me think of happy times
    Let me take you, glad they'll make you
    Way down in Savannah town
    Honey pack your trunk and things
    Let's go price some diamond rings
    Just received the word today
    Listen what the home folk says

    Dear, the roses are a bloom
    I can smell their sweet perfume
    Birds are singing, bells are ringing
    Here's the message that they bring
    Love me honey, love me long
    Life with you is like a song
    Let me rest up on your breast down in
    Dixie Loving nest

    Come down, why don't you
    Come down
    Why don't you
    Come on down to old Savannah
    Be there, oh honey see there old Aunt Mandy in her red bandanna
    When the preacher joins you hand in hand
    They're going to serenade you with a big brass band
    Come down, why don't you come down
    Let's have a Georgia Honeymoon

    Brooklyn Roads
    Composer(s): Neil Diamond
    Performer(s): Neil Diamond; Jane Olivor



    If I close my eyes
    I can almost hear my mother
    Callin', "Neil, go find your brother
    Daddy's home, and it's time for supper
    Hurry on"

    And I see two boys
    Racin' up two flights of staircase
    Squirmin' into Papa's embrace
    And his whiskers warm on their face
    Where's it gone
    Oh, where's it gone

    Two floors above the butcher
    First door on the right
    Life filled to the brim
    As I stood by my window
    And I looked out of those
    Brooklyn roads

    I can still recall
    The smells of cookin' in the hallways
    Rubbers drying in the doorways
    And report cards I was always
    Afraid to show

    Mama'd come to school
    And as I'd sit there softly crying
    Teacher'd say, "He's just not trying
    He's got a good head if he'd apply it"
    But you know yourself
    It's always somewhere else

    I built me a castle
    With dragons and kings
    And I'd ride off with them
    As I stood by my window
    And looked out on those
    Brooklyn roads

    Thought of going back
    But all I'd see are stranger's faces
    And all the scars that love erases
    But as my mind walks through thoses places
    I'm wonderin'
    What's come of them

    Does some other young boy
    Come home to my room
    Does he dream what I did
    As he stands by my window
    And looks out on those
    Brooklyn roads

    Let's Take A Walk Around The Block
    Composer(s): Harold Arlen - Ira Gerswin - E.Y. Harburg
    First performance/First recording by: Dixie Dunbar & Earl Oxford - 1934/Richard Himber & His Orch. - 1934
    Covered by multiple other artists



    I never traveled further North
    Than old Van Courtland Park
    And never further South than the aquarium
    I've seen the charm of Jersey City
    But first let me remark
    I saw it from the empire state solarium

    But we've been putting nickels
    In the postal savings bank
    And when those nickels pile up
    We can toddle off in swank
    And I don't mean an ordinary cook's tour
    I mean a cabin de-luxe tour

    Someday we'll go places
    New lands and new faces
    The day we quit punching the clock
    The future looks pleasant
    But at present
    Let's take a walk around the block

    You're just the companion
    I want at Grand Canyon
    for throwing old blades down the rock
    The money we have`ll go for travel
    Meantime, let's walk around the block

    Gangway, we'll begin
    When our, ship comes in
    I'll sit on your lap
    All over the map

    To London in May time
    To Venice in play time
    To Paris in time for a frock
    To Boston in bean time
    Darling, meantime
    Let's take a walk around the block

    In Winter at Christmas
    We'll visit the isthmus
    And see how they lock up a lock
    And then in Caracas, on a jackass
    We'll take a ride around the block

    We'll keep to our promise
    To visit St. Thomas
    And then at Jamaica we'll dock
    The prospect is thrilling
    Still I am willing
    Just now to walk around the block

    Onward, to Cathay
    Then to Mandalay
    Boom on to Bangkok
    Perhaps Vladivostok

    We'll send the folks cables
    Accumulate labels
    Buy souvenirs till we're in hock
    But since we are flat in old Manhattan
    Let's take a walk around the block

    Composer(s): Bob Crewe - Sandy Linzer - Denny Randell - Jacques Chaumelle
    Performer(s): Richard Anthony - 1966



    Pourquoi ces larmes dans tes yeux
    Et que veut dire cet adieu?
    Écoute-moi

    Si tu veux que notre amour
    Soit plus fort de jour en jour
    Laisse-moi sécher tes larmes
    Tiens bon, tiens bon, tiens bon
    Et nous gagnerons

    As-tu jamais pensé que sur la Terre
    Des millions de gens resteront solitaires?
    (Pense à eux)
    Ils vivront sans amour
    (Pense à eux)
    Jusqu'à leur dernier jour

    Lorsque la vie t'apporte quelques fleurs
    Souviens-toi de ceux qui n'ont rien dans le cœur
    (Pense à eux)
    Ceux-là préfèrent l'argent
    (Pense à eux)
    Au moindre sentiment
    Tiens bon, tiens bon, baby

    Si tu veux que notre amour
    Soit plus fort de jour en jour
    Laisse-moi sécher tes larmes
    Tiens bon, tiens bon, tiens bon
    Et nous gagnerons

    Il y a des gens qui s'aiment plus que nous
    Mais que le destin sépare tout à coup
    (Pense à eux)
    Leur amour est si fort
    (Pense à eux)
    Qu'ils choisissent la mort

    Qu'avons-nous fait de mieux dans notre vie
    Pour qu'à tout jamais la chance les oublie?
    (C'est pour eux)
    Nous devons chaque jour
    (Oui, pour eux)
    Mériter cet amour
    Tiens bon, tiens bon, baby

    Si tu veux que notre amour
    Soit plus fort de jour en jour
    Laisse-moi sécher tes larmes
    Tiens bon, tiens bon, tiens bon
    Et nous gagnerons

    Brooklyn (Owes The Charmer Under Me)
    Composer(s): Walter Becker; Donald Fagen
    Performer(s): Steely Dan; Sara Isaksson



    A race of angels
    Bound with one another
    A dish of dollars
    Laid out for all to see
    A tower room at Eden Rock
    His golf at noon for free
    Brooklyn owes the charmer
    Under me

    His lady's aching
    To bring a body down
    She daily preaches
    On where she wants to be
    An evening with a movie queen
    A face we all have seen
    Brooklyn owes the charmer
    Under me

    A case of aces
    Done up loose for dealing
    A piece of island cooling in the sea
    The whole of time we gain or lose
    And power enough to choose
    Brooklyn owes the charmer
    Under me

    Let’s stop the clock
    And make believe this night of love
    Will never end
    This is our chance, don’t pass it by
    Let’s stop the clock
    And capture every thrill
    This night of love may send
    This is romance, don’t let it die, darling
    My hungry heart keeps telling me
    Love while you may
    We love but once
    And love only lives for a day
    Let’s stop the clock
    Before this moment fades into the dawn
    For with the dawn, you will be gone
    Let love live on, let’s stop the clock

    Composer(s): Bob Crewe - Sandy Linzer - Denny Randell
    First release by: The Four Seasons - 1965
    Covered by multiple other artists



    There ain't no good in our goodbye-in'
    True love takes a lot of tryin'
    Oh, I'm cryin'

    Let's hang on to what we got
    Don't let go girl, we got a lot
    Got a lot of love between us
    Hang on, hang on, hang on
    To what we got [doo-doo doo-doo doo-doo]

    You say you're gonna go and call it quits
    Gonna chuck it all and break our love to bits
    (Breakin' up) I wish you never said it
    (Breakin' up) No, no, we'll both regret it
    That little chip 'o diamond on your hand
    Ain't a fortune, baby, but you know it stands
    (For your love) A love to try and bind us
    (Such a love) We just can't leave behind us
    Baby (don't you go) Baby (oh no no)
    Baby (think it over and stay)

    There isn't anything I wouldn't do
    I'd go to any price to get in good with you
    (Patch it up) Give me a second turn
    (Patch it up) Don't cool off while I'm burnin'
    You got me cryin', dyin' at your door
    Don't shut me out, open your arms for
    (Open up) Your arms I need to hold
    (Open up) Your heart, oh girl, I told you
    Baby (don't you go) Baby (oh no no)
    Baby (think it over and stay)

    Bronco Bill's Lament
    Composer(s): Don McLean
    Performer(s): Don McLean



    I coulda been most anything I put my mind to be
    But a cowboy's life was the only life for me
    It's a strong man's occupation ridin' herd and livin' free
    But strong men often fail
    Where shrewd men can prevail
    I'm an old man now with nothin' left to say
    But oh god how I worked my youth away

    Well you may not recognise my face, I used to be a star
    A cowboy hero known both near and far
    I perched upon a silver mount and sang with my guitar
    But the studio of course
    owned my saddle and my horse
    But that six-gun on the wall belongs to me
    Oh god I can't live a memory

    You know I'd like to put my finger on that trigger once again
    And point that gun at all the prideful men
    All the voyeurs and the lawyers who can pull a fountain pen
    And put you where they choose
    With the language that they use
    And enslave you till you work your youth away
    Oh god how I worked my youth away

    Whoopee ty yioh
    Whoopee ty yi ay
    One man's work is another man's play
    Oh god how I worked my youth away

    You see I always liked the notion of a cowboy fighting crime
    This photograph was taken in my prime
    I could beat those desperados but there's no sense fightin' time
    But the singin' was a ball
    'Cause I'm not musical at all
    I moved my lips to someone else's voice

    I coulda been most anything I put my mind to be
    But a cowboy's life was the only life for me
    It's a strong man's occupation ridin' herd and livin' free
    But strong men often fail
    Where shrewd men can prevail
    I'm an old man now with nothin' left to say
    But oh god how I worked my youth away

    Let’s Stay Young Forever
    Composer(s): Allan Roberts - Doris Fisher
    Performer(s): Jeri Southern; Dave Barbour Trio



    Let’s stay young forever
    Let’s never grow old
    Let every kiss we kiss be sweet and new
    Eternally useful throughout the years

    Let’s be children together
    Turn the tinsel to gold
    Let’s always be naïve and make-believe
    Tomorrow is never

    There’ll always be a song
    For those in love to sing
    But only for the heart of those who dream of spring
    How can our love but be warm
    You can turn a winter’s storm to May-time

    Let’s stay young forever
    No future or past
    Just waiting for the day, some day, today
    And dreaming that love will always last

    Let's Groove
    Composer(s): Maurice White - Wayne Vaughn
    First release by: Earth, Wind & Fire - 1981



    Let this groove, get you to move
    it's alright, alright
    let this groove, set in your shoes
    stand up, alright

    Gonna tell you what you can do
    with my love, alright
    Let you know girl you're looking good
    you're out of sight and alright

    Move yourself and glide like a 747
    loos yourself in the sky among the clouds in the heavens

    Let this groove, light up your fuse, alright
    Let this groove, set in your shoes

    stand up, alright
    Let me tell you what you can do
    with my love, alright

    Gotta let you know girl you're looking good
    you're out of sight, you're alright

    Tell the DJ to play your favorite tune
    then you know it's okay
    What you found is happiness, now

    Let this groove, get you to move, alright
    Let this groove set in your shoes
    stand up, alright

    You will find peace of mind on the floor
    Take a little time, come and see, you and me
    make a little sign, I'll be there after a while
    if you want my love

    We can boogie on down, down, down, down
    Let's groove tonight
    share the spice of life
    baby slice it right
    we're gonna groove tonight

    Bronco
    Performer(s): Paul Sawtell



    Bronco, Bronco
    Tearin' across the Texas plain
    Bronco, Bronco
    Bronco Layne

    Born down around the old Panhandle
    Texas is where he grew to fame
    There ain't a horse that he can't handle
    That's how he got his name

    Bronco, Bronco
    Tearin' across the Texas plain
    Bronco, Bronco
    Bronco Layne

    Next to a four square Texas twister
    You'd call a cyclone weak and mild
    You've never seen a twister, mister
    `Til someone gets him riled

    Bronco, Bronco
    Tearin' across the Texas plain
    Bronco, Bronco
    Bronco Layne

    Show me a gal who's kissed him once
    I'll show you a gal who's kissed him twice
    Once any gal has kissed him twice
    She's dreamin' of shoes and rice

    Bronco, Bronco
    Tearin' across the Texas plain
    Bronco, Bronco
    Bronco Layne
