The Groovy Age
Composer(s): Boyd Bennett - John Young
Performer(s): Boyd Bennett & His Rockets



(Thirteen-fourteen-fifteen-sixteen-seventeen-eighteen-nineteen, go!)

Under twenty, over twelve
Somewhere in-between
Hey boys, that's the groovy age
Really great I mean

When you're older, things are rough
Younger, you're too green
But when you're in that groovy age
Oh man, it sure is keen

Not a worry, not a care
Always havin' fun
In a hurry, on the tear
Got t'get some livin' done

Rockin' rollin' with the beat
It's a crazy rage
Under twenty, over twelve
That's the groovy age

Under twenty, over twelve
Somewhere in-between
Hey boy, that's the groovy age
Really great I mean

When you're older, things are rough
Younger, you're too green
But when you're in that groovy age
Oh man, it sure is keen

Not a worry, not a care
Always havin' fun
In a hurry, on the tear
Got t'get some livin' done

Rockin' rollin' with the beat
It's a crazy rage
Under twenty, over twelve
That's the groovy age

I don't mind your love
I don't mind the one you're thinkin' of

To See You Is To Love You
Composer(s): Johnny Burke - Jimmy Van Heusen
Performer(s): Bing Crosby



To see you is to love you
And I see you everywhere
In the sunrise in the moon glow
Any place I look you're there

To see you is to want you
And I see you all the time
On a sidewalk, in a doorway
On a lonely stairs I climb

Someday let me show you
How happy endings start
You'll find how well I know you
'cause to know you at all is to know you by heart

To see you is to love you
And you're never out of sight
And I love you and I'll see you
In the same old dream tonight

To see you is to love you
And you're never out of sight
And I love you and I'll see you
In the same old dream tonight

I Don't Love You Anymore
Composer(s): Bill Anderson
Performer(s): Charlie Louvin



I don`t love you anymore
not the way I did before
and since you`ve found someone new
I think it`s best
I don`t cry and walk the floor
I don`t love you anymore
Trouble is I don`t love you any less
I don`t love you anymore
for I`ve got no more love to give
you drained my heart of all its love
with every sweet caress
I keep sayin` o`er and o`er
`I don`t love you anymore`
Trouble is I don`t love you any less
I held you close to me one time
Kissed your lips and called you mine
But another came and thrilled you more, I guess
I cried as you walked out the door
`I don`t love you anymore`
Trouble is I don`t love you any less
I don`t love you anymore,
For I`ve got no more love to give
You drained my heart of all its love
With every sweet caress
I keep sayin` o`er and o`er
`I don`t love you anymore`
Trouble is I don`t love you any less

Jennifer Juniper lives upon the hill
Jennifer Juniper, sitting very still
Is she sleeping? I don't think so
Is she breathing? Yes, very low
Whatcha doing, Jennifer, my love?
Jennifer Juniper, rides a dappled mare
Jennifer Juniper, lilacs in her hair
Is she dreaming? Yes, I think so
Is she pretty? Yes, ever so
Whatcha doing, Jennifer, my love?
I'm thinking of what it would be like if she loved me
You know just lately this happy song it came along
And I like to somehow try and tell you
Jennifer Juniper, hair of golden flax
Jennifer Juniper longs for what she lacks
Do you like her? Yes, I do, Sir
Would you love her? Yes, I would, Sir
Whatcha doing Jennifer, my love?
Jennifer Juniper, Jennifer Juniper, Jennifer Juniper
Jennifer Juniper vit sur la colline
Jennifer Juniper assise très tranquille
Dort-elle? Je ne crois pas
Respire-t-elle? Oui, mais tout bas
Qu'est-ce que tu fais, Jenny mon amour?
Jennifer Juniper, Jennifer Juniper, Jennifer Juniper

The Dicky Bird Hop
Composer(s): Ronald Gourley - Leslie Sarony
Performer(s): Gracie Fields



Oh, the chirruping of the birdies on the sycamore tree
They're lucky to be so happy and free
I know that the chirruping sounds a little different to me
I hear them saying early ev'ry morn, "Get up! Get up! Get up!"

The chirruping of the birdies on the sycamore tree
It's lovely to see them having a spree
A cheeky one this morning popped up on the sill and said
"Get out of bed!"

Hopping about, skipping about, flopping about
And nipping about the whole day through
And the funny little things they do
Oh, I know they would amuse you too

Flying a bit, doing a jig, looking for grit
Pecking a twig, their necks all screwed
And I seem to hear them say, "Get out of bed, shift your lazy head 
Don't you know that Nippy want's his little piece of bread"

Aah-aah-aah-aah-aah-aah-aah-aaaaaaaaaaaahhhh
Aah-aah-aah-ahh-aah-aah-aah-aaaaaaaaaaaahhhh
Aah-aah, ah-aah, ah-aah, ah-aah, get out of bed!

Oh, the chirruping of the birdies in the sycamore tree
They're lucky to be so happy and free
I know that the chirruping sounds a little different to me
I hear them saying early ev'ry morn, "Get up! Get up! Get up!"

The chirruping of the birdies on the sycamore tree
It's lovely to see them having a spree
So off I went and threw a piece of bread upon the lawn
The bread was Gone! Gone! Gone! Gone!
The bread was gone!

I Don't Like To Sleep Alone
Composer(s): Paul Anka
Performer(s): Paul Anka



I don't like to sleep alone
Stay with me
Don't go
Talk with me for just a while
So much of you to get to know
Reaching out touching you
Leaving all the worries behind
Loving you
My mouth on yours and yours on mine
Marry me
Let me live with you
Nothing's wrong and love is right
Like a man says in his song
Help me make it through the night
Loneliness can get you down
When you get to thinking no one cares
Lean on me
And I'll lean on you
Together we will see it through
No, I don't like to sleep alone
It's sad to think some folks do
No I don't like to sleep alone
No one does
Do you?
No, I don't like to sleep alone
It's sad to think some folks do
No I don't like to sleep alone
No one does
Do you?

Jennifer Jennings
First performance by: Louis Neefs - 1969



Londen-Stad lag stil te dromen in de zon
Van zee te dromen in de zon, rondom mij

Waar ik ging, langsheen de zomen van 't gazon
Stonden de bomen in de zon, er zalig bij

En toen kwam jij, Jennifer Jennings
En danste lief als de lente voorbij
Jij kwam, Jennifer Jennings
En blauwe ogen die lachten naar mij
Naar mij, alleen naar mij

Jij hebt mij toen meegenomen door de stad
Langsheen de dromen die je had, zacht als zij

En sindsdien keren m'n dromen telkens weer
Naar al die dromen van weleer, van jou en mij

En dan kom jij, Jenniffer Jennings
Zo fris en speels als de liefde zo blij
Want jij, Jennifer Jennings
Je bent precies wat ik droomde voor mij
Ja dan kom jij, Jennifer Jennings
En blauwe ogen die lachen naar mij
Maar jij, Jennifer Jennings
Je danste telkens en telkens voorbij
Voorbij, altijd voorbij
Steeds weer voorbij
Hopeloos voorbij

To Say I Love You
Composer(s): Harvey Averne - Raphael Pagan
Performer(s): Ralfi Pagan



To say I love you
It's a beautiful sound
Oh, the heavens must have sent you
And my love has been found

When you're near me
I feel so much joy
But when you're gone
I'm a sad and lonely boy
I think of you
When we're apart 
And there is so much sadness in my heart
To say I love is all that I can do

Please say you love me 
And oh, oh, don't say no
To say I love you
Is all that I can do
I think of you when we're apart
And there is so much sadness in my heart
To say I love you is all that I can do
Please say you love me
And oh, oh, don't say no

To say I love you is all that I can do

To say I love you is all that I can say
But to show you how much I love you
That's something I try to do each and every day
When you're in my arms, my body comes to life
And when we love, oh when we love
It's so nice
You know how much I love you, don't you honey
Without you, life is barely night and day
All work and no play
But that ain't the way
No it isn't
I said no it isn't, little girl
Oh little girl I love you
I love you 'cause you're fine

I Don't Like Mondays

The silicon chip inside her head 
Gets switched to overload 
And nobody's gonna go to school today 
She's gonna make them stay at home 
And daddy doesn't understand it 
He always said she was good as gold 
And he can see no reason 
Cos there are no reasons 
What reasons do you need to be shown 

Tell me why 
I don't like Mondays 
Tell me why 
I don't like Mondays 
Tell me why 
I don't like Mondays 
I want to shoot 
The whole day down 

The telex machine is kept so clean 
And it types to a waiting world
And Mother feels so shocked 
Father's world is rocked 
And their thoughts turn to 
Their own little girl 
Sweet 16 ain't that peachy keen 
No it ain't so neat to admit defeat
They can see no reasons 
Cos there are no reasons 
What reasons do you need oh oh oh oh 

Tell me why 
I don't like Mondays 
Tell me why 
I don't like Mondays 
Tell me why 
I don't like Mondays 
I want to shoot 
The whole day down, down, down 
Shoot it all down 

And now the playing's stopped in the playground now 
She wants to play with her toys awhile 
And school's out early and soon we'll be learning 
And the lesson today is how to die 
And then the bullhorn crackles 
And the captain tackles 
With the problems and the how's and why's 
And he can see no reasons 
Cos there are no reasons 
What reason do you need to die, die, oh oh oh 

And the silicon chip inside her head 
Gets switched to overload 
And nobody's gonna go to school today 
She's gonna make them stay at home

White chalk written on red brick
our love told in a heart
It's there, drawn in the playground
love, kiss, hate or adore

I love Jennifer Eccles
I know that she loves me
I love Jennifer Eccles
I know that she loves me

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 used to carry her satchels
she used to walk by my side
But when we got to her doorstep
her dad wouldn't let me inside

One Monday morning
found out I'd made the grade
Started me thinkin'
"Have she done the same?"

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

One Monday morning
found out I'd made the grade
Started me thinkin'
"Have she done the same?"

I hope Jennifer Eccles
is goin' to follow me there
Our love is bound to continue
love, kiss, hate or adore

I love Jennifer Eccles
I know that she loves me
I love Jennifer Eccles
I know that she loves me

Jag vet att du sitter i kväll
På ditt rum med ett brev i din hand
Du vill blunda och drömma 
Men kan inte glömma att allt känns så hopplöst ibland
Du spelar en skiva och minns
Några bilden du har i ett skrin
Jag vet att du gråter kanske aldrig förlåter
Att tiden förändrat melodin

Jennie, Jennie, Jennie, Jennie
Världen väntar på ditt svar
Jennie, Jennie, Jennie, Jennie
Livet har så mycket kvar att ge dig
Jennie, Jennie, Jennie, Jennie
Melodin bestämmer du
Jennie, Jennie, Jennie, Jennie
Lev ditt liv och lev det nu

Du vill vända tillbaka i kväll
Till den värld du levt i förut
Men din dagbok i handen
Är som tecken i sanden
Som havet nästan suddat ut
Jennie, Jennie, Jennie, Jennie.....
Jennie, Jennie, Jennie, Jennie.....
Jennie, Jennie, Jennie, Jennie.....

To Morrow
Composer(s): Bob Gibson
Performer(s): Bob Gibson; The Kingson Trio



I started on a journey, about a year ago 
To a little town called Morrow I was going from Glasgow 
I've never been much of a traveller, so I really didn't know 
That Morrow was the hardest place I'd ever try to go! 

I went down to the station for my ticket and applied 
For tips regarding Morrow not expecting to be guyed (means fooled) 
Said I," I'd like to go to Morrow and return 
No later than tomorrow, for I haven't time to burn" 

Said he to me, "now let me see if I have heard you right
You'd like to go to Morrow and return tomorrow night" 
"You should have gone to Morrow yesterday and back today 
For the train today to Morrow is a mile upon its way...

"If you had gone to Morrow yesterday now don't you see 
You could have gone to Morrow and returned today at three 
For the train today to Morrow, if the schedule is right 
Today it goes to Morrow and returns tomorrow night

Said I," My friend, it seems to me you're talking through your hat 
There is a town called Morrow on the line, now tell me that!" 
"There is," said he, "but take from me a quiet little tip 
To go from here to Morrow is a fourteen hour trip

"The train today to Morrow leaves today at 8:35 
At half-past ten tomorrow is the time it should arrive 
So if from here to Morrow is a fourteen hour jump 
Can you get anywhere tomorrow and get back today, you chump?" 

"Said I," I'd like to go to Morrow, so can I go today 
And get to Morrow by tonight if there is no delay?" 
"Well, well", said he to me, "and I've got no more to say 
Can you get anywhere tomorrow and get back again today?" 

Said I,"I guess you know it all, but kindly let me say 
How can I get to Morrow if I leave this town today?" 
Said he,"You cannot get to Morrow anymore today 
For the train that goes to Morrow is a mile upon its way!" 

I was so disappointed I was mad enough to swear
The train had gone to Morrow and it left me standing there 
The man was right in tellin' me that I was a howlin' jay 
I could not go to Morrow, so I guess in town I'll stay

I Don't Know Where I'm Going But I'm On My Way
Composer(s): George Fairman

Goodbye everybody I'm off to fight the foe 
Uncle Sammy is calling me so I must go 
Gee I'm feeling fine don't you wish that you were me? 
For I'm sailing tomorrow over the deep blue sea

Take a look at me I'm a Yankee thro' and thro' 
I was born on July the Fourth in ninety two 
And I'll march away with a feather in my hat
For I'm joining the army what do you think of that?

And I don't know where I'm going but I'm on my way
For I belong to the regulars I'm proud to say 
And I'll do my duty-uty night or day 
I don't know where I'm going but I'm on my way

The Archers' Song
Composer(s): Rudolf Friml - Brian Hooker
Performer(s): Charles Carver



There's a crook with a look like a book full of naughtiness
(Hi-ho-ho, the gallows tree)
With his boot full of loot and his heart full of haughtiness
(Hi-ho-ho and up goes he)
By day we'll take him tenderly by the door so
(By the torso)
Lead him straightway to the gallows tree
(And the Lord assoil his soul)

Whooagh! The boys have lost a brother
Whooagh! The Devil's caught another
There let him hang for a warning
Four and twenty crows (Arrhh!)
Pecking at his nose
Will he find repose, God knows!

There's a wench on a bench with a French kind of flossiness
(Hi-ho-ho, the gallows tree)
With a sly sort of eye and the sleek sort of sauciness
(Hi-ho-ho and up goes she)
Some dark night we'll catch her by the slack of her garter
(Hah, for a starter)
And march her off and never bring her back
(And the Lord assoil her soul)

Whooagh! There goes your little sister
Whooagh! Her brother never missed her
There let her hang for a warning
Four and twenty cats (Meaouw!)
Singing sharps and flats (Meaouw!)
Where will she be then, Amen!
