Take Care Of This House Composer(s): Alan Jay Lerner - Leonard Bernstein Performer(s): Julie Andrews and multiple other artists
Here in this shell of a house this house that is struggling to be falling through the hall coming straight through the wall is hope staring down at me but there's nothing you can see sadness will flow down a cheek courage stand out like a tree Joy, joy is as bright as a comet in flight but hope isn't easy to see
Take Care Of This House keep it from harm if bandits break in sound the alarm Care for this house shine it by hand and keep it so clean the glow can be seen all over the land
be careful at night check all the doors if someone makes off with a dream the dream will be yours Take Care Of This House be always on call for this house is the home of us all
Be careful at night check all the doors if someone makes off with a dream the dream will be yours Take Care Of This House be always on call for this house its the home of us all
Most Likely You Go Your Way (And I'll Go Mine) Composer(s): Bob Dylan Performer(s): Bob Dylan and various other artists
You say you love me and you thinking of me But you know you could be wrong You say you told me that you want to hold me But you know you're not that strong
I just can't do what I done before I just can't beg you any more I'm gonna let you pass And I'll go last
And time will tell Just who has fell And who's been left behind When you go your way and I go mine
You say you disturb me and you don't deserve me But you know sometimes you lie You say you're shakin' and you're always achin' But you know how hard you try
Sometimes it gets so hard to care You can't be this way everywhere And I'm gonna let you pass Yes and I'll go last
And time will tell Just who has fell And who's been left behind When you go your way and I'll go mine
Well the judge he holds a grudge He's gonna call on you But he's badly built and he walks on stilts Watch out he don't fall on you
You say you're sorry for telling stories That you know I believe are true You say you got some other kind of lover And I yes I believe you do
You say my kisses are not like his But this time I'm not gonna tell you why that is I'm just gonna let you pass Yes, and I'll go last
And time will tell Who has fell And who's been left behind When you go your way and I go mine

Take Back Your Mink Composer(s): Frank Loesser Performer(s): Julie London and multiple other artists
He bought me the fur mink five winters ago And the gown the following fall Then the necklace, the bag, the gloves, and the hat That was late '48 I recall Then last night in his apartment He tried to remove them all And I said as I ran down the hall
Take back your mink Take back your pearls What made you think That I was one of those girls? Take back the gown The gloves and the hat I may be down But I'm not flat as all that
I thought that each expensive gift you'd arranged Was a token of your esteem But when I think of what you want in exchange It all seems a horrible dream Eek!
So take back your mink To from whence it came And tell them to alter and rise it For some other dame
Take back your mink Take back your pearls What made you think That I was one of those girls? I'm screaming Take back the gown The gloves and the hat I may be down But I'm not flat as all that
I thought that each expensive gift you'd arranged Was a token of your esteem But when I think of what you want in exchange It all seems a horrible dream Eek!
Take back your mink Those old worn out pelts And go shorten the sleaves For somebody else

Girls Composer(s): David Bowie; Erdal Kizilcay Performer(s): Tina Turner
Girls, we come and we go We kiss, come and we go Like a breeze, brushing your cheek Like pain, like the tears on a face Girls, we come and we go Like spirits, we vanish at dawn My heart, suspended in time Like you, vanish like tears in the rain
Girls, we take our loves away Like spirits living so far away Girls, pretending to break down and cry Girls, whispering wind, what are we giving away
We used to be so happy Remember, remember, so happy I never knew how lonely Could feel

The grey goose was a steady boat, people said, she'd never float But one night when the moon was high, the grey goose flew away As we were sailing round the rocks, the mate took out his compass box and said the wind is like a fox but the grey goose flew away
When out upon the open sea, the admiral, the mate and me prepared to face eternity, but the grey goose flew away She flew into the stormy sea, Davy Jones was calling me But heading for tranquillity, the grey goose flew away

These are the words of a frontier lad Who lost his love when he turned bad
Take a message to Mary but dont tell her where I am Take a message to Mary but dont say Im in a jam You can tell her I had to see the world or tell her that my ship set sail You can say she better not wait for me but dont tell her Im in jail Oh, dont tell her Im in jail
Take a message to Mary but dont tell her what Ive done Please dont mention the stagecoach and the shot from a careless gun You can tell her I had to change my plans and cancel out the wedding day But please dont mention my lonely cell where Im gonna pine away Until my dying day
Take a message to Mary but dont tell her all you know My hearts aching for Mary, Lord knows I miss her so Just tell her I went to Timbuktu, tell her Im searching for gold You can say she better find someone new to cherish and to hold Oh, Lord, this cell is cold
