Too Many Rivers
Composer(s): Harlan Howard
First release: Claude Gray - 1964
Covered by multiple other artists



I wish I could come back to you, dear
'Cause I know that you want me to
But too much water run under that old bridge
There's too many rivers between me and you
There's too many rivers to cross, dear

Too many dreams have been lost
And there's too many long nights
That I've turned and tossed
There's too many rivers to cross

Now don't think for a moment, I blame only you
We both killed the fruit on the vine
And when you try to put love back together
There's always a few little pieces you can't find

Yes, there's too many rivers to cross, dear
And there's too many dreams that have been lost
Oh there's too many long nights
That I've turned and I've tossed
There's too many rivers to cross

I Just Don't Look Good Naked Anymore
(aka Trucker's Lament)
Composer(s): Sheb Wooley - Dick Feller
Performer(s): Sheb Wooley
and multiple other artists



I stepped outta the shower and I gotta good look at myself
Pot belly, bald head, man, I thought I was somebody else
I caught my reflection in the mirror on the back of my bathroom door
I just don't look good naked anymore

So, I'm goin' upstairs and turn the bedroom mirror to the wall
I hung it there when I was trim and tall
I'd stand there and smile, and strut and flex until my arms got sore
But I just don't look good naked anymore

Well, I used to go out with the girls
I loved them one and all
Now they don't get very close to me
They're afraid that I might fall

Well, I went to the Doctor for my annual medical exam
Stood there in the buff, suddenly he said "Man"
I said "What is it Doc, some fatal disease, I just gotta know the score"
He said "No, you just don't look good naked anymore

Well, me and my wife had a dance routine
Everybody said it was unique
Now it's only when we're back to back
That we're dancing cheek to cheek

Well, I went to a nudie beech to have some seaside fun
Stretched out in my birthday suit, soakin' up the sun
Somebody yelled, "Hey, there's an old white whale washed up on the shore
I just don't look good naked anymore

Yeah, my arches fell, my chest went to hell
And my butt's a-draggin' the floor
An' I just don't look good naked anymore
No, I just don't look good naked anymore

Judy's Turn To Cry
Composer(s): Edna Lewis; Beverly "Ruby" Ross
Performer(s): Lesley Gore



'Cause now, it's Judy's turn to cry
Judy's turn to cry
Judy's turn to cry
'Cause Johnny's come back (Johnny's come back, come back) to me

Oh, when Judy left with Johnny at my party (my party)
And came back wearing his ring,
I sat down and cried my eyes out
Now, that was a foolish thing

'Cause now, it's Judy's turn to cry
Judy's turn to cry 
Judy's turn to cry
'Cause Johnny's come back (Johnny's come back, come back) to me

Well, it hurt me so to see them dance together (together)
I felt like making a scene
Then, my tears just fell like raindrops
'Cause Judy's smile was so mean

But now, it's Judy's turn to cry
Judy's turn to cry
Judy's turn to cry
'Cause Johnny's come back (Johnny's come back, come back) to me

Oh, one night I saw them kissin' at a party (a party)
So, I kissed some other guy
Johnny jumped up and he hit him
'Cause he still loved me, that's why

So now, it's Judy's turn to cry
Judy's turn to cry 
Judy's turn to cry
'Cause Johnny's come back (Johnny's come back, come back) to me

Yay, now, it's Judy's turn to cry
Judy's turn to cry 
Judy's turn to cry........

I Just Don't Know What To Do With Myself
French Title: Oui, Il Faut Croire - 1964
Composer(s): Hal David; Burt Bacharach
First release by: Tommy Hunt - 1962
Covered by multiple other artists



I just don't know what to do with myself
Don't know just what to do with myself 
I'm so used to doing everything with you
Planning everything for two
And now that we're through 

I just don't know what to do with my time
I'm so lonesome for you, it's a crime
Going to a movie only makes me sad
Parties make me feel as bad
When I'm not with you, I just don't know what to do 

Like a summer rose needs the sun and rain
I need your sweet love to beat all the pain 

I just don't know what to do with myself
I just don't know what to do with myself
Baby, if your new love ever turns you down
Come back, I will be around
Just waiting for you, I just know what else to do

Like a summer rose needs the sun and rain
I need your sweet love to beat all the pain 

I just don't know what to do with myself
I just don't know what to do with myself
Baby, if your new love ever turns you down
Come back, I will be around
Just waiting for you, I just know what else to do

Judy's got the lips I love to kiss
And when she walks she's got the cutest twist
She's grown up before my eyes and all at once I realize
Judy, Judy, Judy I love you

Judy's got the hands I love to touch
The way she wrinkles her nose, it's just too much
No more shirts and bright blue jeans, all at once she's seventeen
Judy, Judy, Judy I love you

I'm prayin' I'll stay in her heart for evermore
'Cause she's the girl I've dreamed of, that I've been waiting for

Judy's gonna share my life some day
And in my heart I know she's gonna stay
When I look into her eyes I just can't help but realize
Judy, Judy, Judy I love you

I'm prayin' I'll stay in her heart for evermore
'Cause she's the girl I've dreamed of, that I've been waiting for

Judy's gonna share my life some day
And I'll be true to her in every way
When I look into her eyes I just can't help but realize
Judy, Judy, Judy I love you
Judy, Judy, Judy I love you

Too Many Fish In The Sea
Composer(s): Norman Whitfield - Eddie Holland
First release: The Marvelettes - 1964
Covered by multiple other artists



Look here, girls: Take this advice & remember always in life

Into each heart some tears must fall 
Though you love & lose you must stand tall 
'Cause you all got to cry sometimes, I say, sigh sometimes 
Pull yourself together, no use cryin' forever 

Because there are 
(Too many fish in the sea, too many fish in the sea) 
I say, there are short ones, tall ones, fine ones, kind ones 
(Too many fish in the sea) 
My mother once told me somethin', & every word is true 
Don't waste your time on a fella who doesn't love you 
They'll only mislead you, only grieve you 
Don't worry about him, let him go, do without him 

Because there are 
(Too many fish in the sea, too many fish in the sea) 
I say, there are short ones, tall ones, fine ones, kind ones 
(Too many fish in the sea) 

If a fish isn't on your line 
Bait your hook & keep on tryin' 
Don't let him get you down 
There's other boys around 

Because there are 
(Too many fish in the sea, too many fish in the sea) 
I say, there are short ones, tall ones, fine ones, kind ones 
(Too many fish in the sea) 

I don't want nobody who don't want me 
('Cause there's too many fish in the sea) 
Ain't gonna love nobody who don't love me, now 
('Cause there's too many fish in the sea) 
I don't need nobody who don't need me 
('Cause there's too many fish in the sea) 
I don't want nobody who don't want me, now 
('Cause there's too many fish in the sea) 
Ain't gonna love nobody who don't love me 
('Cause there's too many fish in the sea)...

Composer(s): Hal David; Burt Bacharach; Michèle Vendôme, Claude Carrère
Performer(s): Sheila - 1964



Oui, il faut croire simplement à la vie
À cette vie que l'on nous a donnée
Penser que jamais rien n'est perdu vraiment
Que la chance nous attend
On doit la chercher

Oui, il faut croire simplement à la vie
À cette vie que l'on nous a donnée
Apprendre à sourire quand on a du chagrin
Quand celui qu'on aimait bien
Vous a fait pleurer
On doit savoir oublier

Avec toi, je veux connaître le monde et découvrir
Toutes les joies et tous les espoirs
Qu'il vient m'offrir

Oui, il faut croire simplement à la vie
À cette vie que l'on nous a donnée
Et se souvenir du geste de l'ami
Car les mots qu'il nous a dits
Pour nous consoler
On ne peut les effacer

Toi qui m'a appris à regarder autour de moi
Jamais mon coeur, je te le promets,
Ne t'oubliera !

Oui, il faut croire, il faut croire à la vie!
Oui, il faut croire, il faut croire à la vie!
Penser que jamais rien n'est perdu vraiment
Que la chance nous attend
On doit la chercher

Oui, il faut croire, il faut croire à la vie!

A circus of horrors, yeah, well that's what you are

I Just Can't Wait To Be King
Composer(s): Elton John; Tim Rice
Performer(s): Elton John & London Community
and multiple other artists



I'm gonna be a mighty king
So enemies beware!

Well, I've never seen a king of beasts
With quite so little hair

I'm gonna be the mane event
Like no king was before
I'm brushing up on looking down
I'm working on my Roar

Thus far, a rather uninspiring thing

Oh, I just can't wait to be king!
(You've rather a long way to go, young master
if you think...)

No one saying do this
(Now when I said that, I -)
No one saying be there
(What I meant was...)
No one saying stop that
(Look, what you don't realize...)
No one saying see here
(Now see here!)

Free to run around all day
(Well, that's definitely out...)
Free to do it all my way!

I think it's time that you and I
Arranged a heart to heart

Kings don't need advice
From little hornbills for a start

If this is where the monarchy is headed
Count me out!
Out of service, out of Africa
I wouldn't hang about
This child is getting wildly out of wing

Oh, I just can't wait to be king!

Everybody look left
Everybody look right
Everywhere you look I'm
Standing in the spotlight!

Not yet!

Let every creature go for broke and sing
Let's hear it in the herd and on the wing
It's gonna be King Simba's finest fling

Oh, I just can't wait to be king!
Oh, I just can't wait to be king!
Oh, I just can't waaaaaait ... to be king!

Judy
Performer(s): Marty Robbins



You came down out of Heaven to make me happy, dear
To smile away my sorrows and kiss away my tears
Seems that I have loved you 
though we've never met before
But now you're in my heart, love, to stay for evermore

You're my angel, Judy, you're my darlin'
You're the sweetest flower that Heaven ever grew
My arms could never hold another
'Cause my love is only for you

The nights were dark and lonely the days were lonely too
But now they're all so bright, love, cause all I see is you
You came into my heart, love, from out of empty space
With a song upon your lips, dear, with a smile upon your face

You're my angel, Judy, you're my darlin'
You're the sweetest flower that Heaven ever grew
My arms could never hold another
'Cause my love is only for you

Too Long Out/Too Long In
Performer(s): Jorma Kaukonen



"Well movin' down to Lousisiana, gonna leave this life behind
Bye-bye California, said I finally changed my mind
This restless way of livin' bout to drive a man insane
To leave the sleepy village, tired of playin' those waitin' games

Well hello New York City, hope you're waitin' on my call
Babe since I've been here you're the greatest one of all
Well hello big time city, come on and have a ball
Tired of hibernatin', let's go cruising for a fall

Well I spent some time in Wichita
Thought it was the pits
This life of superstratum just ain't all it's cracked up to be

To California, where the people let you be
Well good morning Albuquerque
Lord I must have gone insane
Looking out the window
Gotta catch a train
Seems like lost horizons just ain't comin' up the same
I hear California callin'
I better take a plane
Well
Gotta to tell Virginia that they better let it shine
This life that I've been living
Street sore failure on my mind
Well bye bye the old Grand Canyon
California way behind"

I Just Can't Stop Loving You
Composer(s): Michael Jackson
Performer(s): Michael Jackson



I just want to lay next to you for a while
You look so beautiful tonight
Your eyes are so lovely
Your mouth is so sweet
A lot of people misunderstand me
That's because they don't know me at all
I just want to touch you
And hold you
I need you
God, I need you
I love you so much

Each time the wind blows
I hear your voice so
I call your name
Whispers at morning
Our love is dawning
Heaven's glad you came

You know how I feel
This thing can't go wrong
I'm so proud to say I love you
Your love's got me high
I long to get by
This time is forever
Love is the answer

I hear your voice now
You are my choice now
The love you bring
Heaven's in my heart
At your call I hear harps
And Angels sing
You know how I feel
This thing can't go wrong
I can't live my life without you

I just can't hold on
I feel we belong
My life ain't worth living
If I can't be with you

I just can't stop loving you
I just can't stop loving you
And if I stop
Then tell me just what will I do
'Cause I just can't stop loving you

At night when the stars shine
I pray in you I'll find a love so true
When morning awakes me
Will you come and take me
I'll wait for you

You know how I feel
I won't stop until I hear
Your voice saying I do
(I do)
This thing can't go wrong
This feeling's so strong
Well, my life ain't worth living
If I can't be with you

I just can't stop loving you
I just can't stop loving you
(If I don't)
And if I stop
Then tell me just what will I do
I just can't stop loving you

We can change all the world tomorrow
We can sing songs of yesterday
I can say,'Hey, farewell to sorrow'
This is my life and I
Want to see you for always

I just can't stop loving you
(Oh, baby)
(Oh)
I just can't stop loving you
(If I can't stop)
And if I stop
(Oh)
Then tell me just what will I do
(Oh)
(What will I do)
(Oh)
I just can't stop loving you
(Why do, girl)
I just can't stop loving you
(And nobody but'you)
And if I stop
Then tell me just what will I do

Judy
Performer(s): Frankie Vaughan



If her voice can bring
Every hope of Spring
That's Judy
My Judy

If her eyes say "yes"
But you're wrong in your guess
That's Judy
My Judy

If you hear her call
In a soft, southern drawl
"Hi! Stranger!"
That's danger

If you're smart; watch your heart
She'll upset 'most any fellows apple cart!

In a hundred ways
You'll be shouting her praise
She'll let 'ya
She'll get 'ya

When she sees you fall
She will will tell you "That's all,..."
"You wrtech 'ya!"
You betcha

Then you'l know all the heartaches
Of a fool just like me

If she seem a saint
And you'll find that she ain't
That's Judy
Sure as you're born!

Too Long At The Fair
Composer(s): Joel Zoss
First release: Bonnie Raitt - 1972



Jesus cried, wept and died
I guess he went up to heaven
I've been downtown such a long, long time
I'll never make it home by seven
Won't you come & take me home
I've been too long at the fair
And, lord, I just can't stand it anymore

Well I went down to Chason's
Walked 'til my feet got sore
I never knew what laughin' was
'til you walked out the door
Won't you come and take me home
I've been too long at the fair
And, lord, I just can't stand it anymore

Well, you can give my soul to Aabraham
Give my soul to Saul
Give my bones to Canada
My feet they don't hurt at all

I don't know who made the highway
I guess that's just my pride
But I have heard the prince of darkness
On his charger ride

The silver blade is gleamin'
The scales are in his hands
I swear another night is fallin'
Don't you lose another man
Won't you come and take me home
I've been too long at the fair
And, lord, I just can't stand it anymore

I Just Can't Make It By Myself
Composer(s): Clara Ward
Performer(s): Al Green; Elvis Presley; Salem Travelers



I need Jesus to guide me every day
As I'm travellin' along this rough and narrow way
Though afflictions fill my soul
I'm determined to make the goal
I've gotta have Jesus 'cause I just
can't make it by myself

Every day I pray (pray) pray (pray)
Pray (pray) pray (pray)
I pray (pray) pray (pray
Pray pray pray
Pray and ask the Lord Jesus
Don't leave me by myself

Every mornin' through the years I pray
You know I've got to have Jesus
I just can't it by myself
By myself

The waitress with the orange hair 
keeps motionin' me to hurry up and leave
So I gulp my coffee - burn my mouth - grab up my coat and slippin' out
I smear a streak of mustard down my sleeve
And the guy behind the register takes my bread and shakes his head
And looks at me as though I've blown his mind
Hey, I just come here for some coffee
Hope I'm not wastin' anybody's time

And Judy I'm slowly movin' back to you
And I wish that I could say I'll treat you better than I used to
It's just I'm learnin' lots of things I never knew back then
Judy I'm slowly movin' back again
Judy I'm slowly movin' back again

That blue eyed barracuda smiles and tells me she could use some brand new clothes
She grabs my leg and with a wink, asks if I want another drink
She's not the campfire girl you might suppose
But she's so busy tellin' me her troubles I don't think she's got time
For any kind of trouble small as mine
Hey, I just come in here for nothin'
Hope I'm not wastin' anybody's time

And Judy I'm slowly movin' back to you
And I wish that I could say I'll treat you better than I used to
It's just I'm learnin' lots of things I never knew back then
Judy I'm slowly movin' back again
Judy I'm slowly movin' back again

Well I'm stopped here on the corner, when the red faced cop says move along your way
But my nose is cold and my toes are numb, I got no feeling in my thumb
I think I just might stop inside that church and maybe pray
But they pass the plate and they look at me when it turns out that I ain't got a dime
Hey, I just come in here to talk to God
Hope I'm not wastin' anybody's time

And Judy I'm slowly movin' back to you
And I wish that I could say I'll treat you better than I used to
It's just I'm learnin' lots of things I never knew back then
Judy I'm slowly movin' back again
Judy I'm slowly movin' back again

Too Late To Turn Back Now
Composer(s): Eddie Lee Cornelius Jr.
First release: Cornelius Brothers & Sister Rose - 1972



My mama told me, she said, "Boy, please beware
There's this thing called love and it's everywhere"
She tells me, "It can break your heart and leave you in misery"
Ever since I met this little woman
I feel it's happening to me, and I'm tellin' you
It's too late to turn back now
I believe, I believe, I believe I'm fallin' in love
Oh, it's too late to turn back now
I believe, I believe, I believe I'm falling in love
I found myself wanting her at least ten times a day
You know, it's so unusual for me to carry on this way 
I'm tellin' you
I can't sleep at night 
I want you to hold me tight
I've tried so hard to convince myself
This feeling just can't be right, and I'm tellin' you
It's too late to turn back now
I believe, I believe, I believe I'm fallin' in love
Oh, it's too late to turn back now
I believe, I believe, I believe I'm falling in love
I wouldn't mind it if I knew she really loved me too
But I hate to think that I'm in love alone and nothing that I can do
Whoa
oh

It's too late to turn back now 
I believe, I believe, I believe I'm fallin' in love
Oh, it's too late to turn back now
I believe, I believe, I believe I'm falling in love
My mama told me, she said, "Son, please beware
'Bout this thing called love and it's everywhere"
She told me, "She can break your heart
Ooh, and put you in misery"
Since I met this new woman, I do believe it's happening to me
Let me tell ya
It's too late to turn back now
I believe, I believe, I believe I'm fallin' in love
It's too late to turn back now
I believe, I believe, I believe I'm falling in love
I find myself wanting her at least ten times a day
You know, that's so unusual for me to carry on this way 
I tell ya
I can't sleep at night for wanting to hold her tight
Ooh, I've tried so hard convincing myself 
This feeling just can't be right 
Let me tell ya
It's too late to turn back now
I believe, I believe, I believe I'm fallin' in love
It's too late to turn back now
I believe, I believe, I believe I'm falling in love
It's too late, ooh, baby, ooh yeah 
It's too late, baby
Now I wouldn't mind it not if I knew she loved me too
I'd hate to think that I'm in love alone 
And there's nothing that I can do 
Whoa, oh
It's too late to turn back now 
I believe, I believe, I believe I'm fallin' in love
It's too late to turn back now
I believe, I believe, I believe I'm falling in love
Ooh baby, I tell you. I believe

I Just Can't Help Believin'
Composer(s): Barry Mann; Cynthia Weil
First release by: Barry Mann - 1968
Covered by multiple other artists



I just can't help believin'
When she smiles up soft and gentle
With a trace of misty mornin'
And the promise of tomorrow in her eye-eyes

And I just can't help believin'
When she's lyin' close beside me
And my heart beats with the rhythm of her si-i-i-ighs

This time the girl is gonna stay
This time the girl is gonna stay for more than just a da-ay

I just can't help believin'
When she slips her hand in my hand
And it feels so small and helpless
That my fingers fold around it like a glo-ove

And I just can't help believin'
When she's whisperin' her magic
And her tears are shinin' honey sweet with lo-o-o-ove

This time the girl is gonna stay (this time the girl is gonna stay)
This time the girl is gonna stay for more than just a da-ay

For more than just a da-a-a-ay

(Just can't help believin')
