    A Long And Lasting Love
    Composer(s): Gerry Goffin - Michael Masser
    Performer(s): Crystal Gayle
    and multiple other artists



    A long and lasting love
    Not many people find it
    But those who do their whole life through
    Put their heart and soul behind it
    A long and lasting love
    A long and lasting love
    Is what I've always dreamed of
    And when I look into your eyes
    I knew I'd really seen love
    A long and lasting love
    Chorus:
    We got a once in a lifetime
    All the dreams we've waited for
    Are just beginning to come true
    It happens once in a lifetime
    When you find that special girl
    Who knows the meaning of love like you
    A long and lasting love
    We share for many reasons
    A special bond
    That goes beyond the changing of the seasons
    A long and lasting love
    A long and lasting love
    Is what I've always dreamed of
    I knew I'd really seen love
    A long and lasting love
    Is what I've always dreamed of
    My long and lasting love

    Composer(s): Pete Ham
    Performer(s): Pete Ham



    Do do do do
    Do do do do
    Do do do do do do do do do do-oo do do

    A lonely day, a lonely night
    The time just drags on by, I know it can't be right
    It's been so long since I was light
    I would give anything to be with you tonight

    Do do do do do do do do do do-oo do do

    I just received, I never gave
    I would not gamble if I knew what I would save
    You gave me all, I gave you half
    But I'd give anything to see you when you laugh

    Do do do do do do do do do do-oo do do

    I would give anything to see you when you laugh

    Christmas Hot Rod Race
    Performer(s): Lead Foot Four



    You've heard the story of the hot rod race
    where the Fords and the Mercury's were settin' the pace
    well here's one story you won't believe
    it happened late one Christmas Eve

    The kid who was driving that Model-A
    was headed back to Oklahoma for Christmas day
    when in the rear-view mirror there's a red light blinkin'
    "oh, my gosh, it's the cops" he's thinkin'

    Well he pushed it to the floor and let the motor unwind
    but that guy with the light pulled up right behind
    it was some custom model he had never seen
    candy apple red and satellite green

    The kid couldn't hear the engine and he thought he'd queer
    that this sled was powered by eight reindeer
    In the wink of an eye the old crate was passing
    that light was the lead deer's nose a'flashin'

    There was a chubby old gent at the wheel of this sled
    with a beard'n'a jumpsuit all of red
    smokin' a pipe and fairly blind
    he passed the kid like he wasn't even tryin'

    Well now the kid had raced against many cars
    and he wasn't scared of one looked like it was from Mars
    He would take anything, whether chop or stock
    with his racing cam and his fifty-four block

    Well that Model-A had what it took
    hit a hundred and ten, just past Holbrook
    the kid pulled alongside, said "you wanna go?"
    the cat with the beard just said "ho, ho, ho"

    Well they both were givin' it all it's worth
    the lead was passin' back-and forth
    'til they hit the mountains of New Mexico
    the road was covered with ice'n'snow

    Well that sled kept a-goin' but the kid started slippin'
    he had to slow down to keep from flippin'
    that snow's no good for his racing slicks
    yeah, the kid was just about out of tricks

    Well he thought that maybe he'd lost this race
    when the other guy slowed down the pace
    he was pullin' on the reins of them eight reindeer
    shiftin' 'em down into lower gear

    Well that cat kept'a putting the brakes to that sleigh
    when he was just a car length away
    he tossed a box right in the kid's lap
    it was a brand new set of spinner hubcaps

    The he dashed off so fast that a rock couldn't follow
    though the kid was sure that he heard him holler
    just before he nitro'd into space
    "Merry Christmas, thanks for the Hot Rod Race"

    À L'ombre Des Maris
    Composer(s): Georges Brassens
    Performer(s): Georges Brassens



    Les dragons de vertu n'en prennent pas ombrage
    Si j'avais eu l'honneur de commander aù bord
    A bord du Titanic quand il a fait naufrage
    J'aurais crié:"Les femm's adultères d'abord!"

    Ne jetez pas la pierre à la femme adultère
    Je suis derrière ...

    Car, pour combler les vœux, calmer la fievre ardente
    Du pauvre solitaire et qui n'est pas de bois
    Nulle n'est comparable à l'epouse inconstante
    Femmes de chefs de gar', c'est vous la fleur des bois

    Ne jetez pas la pierre à la femme adultère
    Je suis derrière...

    Quant à vous, messeigneurs, aimez à votre guise
    En ce qui me concerne, ayant un jour compris
    Qu'une femme adultère est plus qu'une autre exquise
    Je cherche mon bonheur à l'ombre des maris

    Ne jetez pas la pierre à la femme adultère
    Je suis derrière...

    À l'ombre des maris mais, cela va sans dire
    Pas n'importe lesquels, je les tri', les choisis
    Si madame Dupont, d'aventure, m'attire
    Il faut que, par surcroit, Dupont me plaise aussi!

    Ne jetez pas la pierre à la femme adultère
    Je suis derrière...

    Il convient que le bougre ait une bonne poire
    Sinon, me ravisant, je détale à grands pas
    Car je suis difficile et me refuse à boire
    Dans le verr; d'un monsieur qui ne me revient pas

    Ne jetez pas la pierre à la femme adultère
    Je suis derrière...

    Ils sont loins mes débuts ou, manquant de pratique
    Sur des femmes de flics je mis mon dévolu
    Je n'étais pas encore ouvert à l'esthétique
    Cette faute de gout je ne la commets plus

    Ne jetez pas la pierre à la femme adultère
    Je suis derrière...

    Oui, je suis tatillon, pointilleux, mais j'estime
    Que le mari doit être un gentleman complet
    Car on finit tous deux par devenir intimes
    A force, à force de se passer le relais

    Ne jetez pas la pierre à la femme adultère
    Je suis derrière...

    Mais si l'on tombe, hélas! sur des maris infames
    Certains sont si courtois, si bons si chaleureux
    Que, même apres avoir cessé d'aimer leur femme
    On fait encore semblant uniquement pour eux

    Ne jetez pas la pierre à la femme adultère
    Je suis derrière...

    C'est mon cas ces temps-ci, je suis triste, malade
    Quand je dois faire honneur à certaine pecore
    Mais, son mari et moi, c'est Oreste et Pylade
    Et, pour garder l'ami, je la cajole encore

    Ne jetez pas la pierre à la femme adultère
    Je suis derrière...

    Non contente de me dé plaire, elle me trompe
    Et les jours ou, furieux, voulant tout mettre à bas
    Je cri:"La coupe est pleine, il est temps que je rompe!"
    Le mari me suppli':"Non ne me quittez pas!"

    Ne jetez pas la pierre à la femme adultère
    Je suis derrière...

    Et je reste, et, tous deux, ensemble on se flagorne
    Moi, je lui dis:"C'est vous mon cocu préféré"
    Il me réplique alors:"Entre toutes mes cornes
    Celles que je vous dois, mon cher, me sont sacrées"

    Ne jetez pas la pierre à la femme adultère
    Je suis derrière...

    Et je reste et, parfois, lorsque cette pimbeche
    S'attarde en compagni' de son nouvel amant
    Que la nurse est sorti', le mari à la peche
    C'est moi, pauvre de moi! qui garde les enfants

    Ne jetez pas la pierre à la femme adultère

    Hot Rod Harry
    Composer(s): Martin Christian
    Performer(s): Johnny Bond



    Everybody make way for Hot Rod Harry
    of brains and cash I ain't got narry
    Gotta cravin' love for blazin' speed
    a whizzin' Lizzie, that's all I need

    Now who needs dough, that's what I say
    want somethin' bad enough, there's a will'n'a way
    Da big dump heap just south of town
    a lotta ol' cars just layin' around

    Snuck out late one Wednesday night
    so dark even ghosts were all outta sight
    found four old wheels and a frame t'boot
    won't look like much, but who gives a hoot

    Got a motor block from an old dump truck
    just my speed and just my luck
    took it all home plus a dozen tires
    got my hammer 'n' nails 'n' some bailin' wire

    Heard tell about a man of another day
    built a wonderful, wonderful one horse shay
    I'll do me the same, just give me the tools
    my mama didn't raise no idiots or fools

    Lotta hard work 'n' she's ready to roll
    I took to that thing like a weevil to a boll
    A friend of mine towed it t'the top of a hill
    a lotta smooth road 'n' it's all downhill

    I released the brake 'n' was under way
    sailing was smooth if I do so say
    At fifty per, got ta sizin' her up
    if I left sumpin' out, I'm a suck-eyed pup

    Sixty MPH, just look at them tires
    balanced so smooth 'n' the clutch's on fire
    our instrument's workin', cool as the snow
    this baby's a peach, beats walkin' you know

    I put her together like Edsels and Fords
    got me some old-timed running boards
    Eighty, then ninety, sailing along
    got fair piece from home, ain't nothin' goin' wrong

    Hit a hundert'n'ten at the foot of the grade
    as the builder of hot rods I've got it made
    a foot on the brake, I slowed her way down
    swung to a stop and turned 'er around

    Pulled up in the station and up to the pump
    hollered to the man, "Hey, man, fill 'er up"
    He grabbed the hose, started t'lookin' around
    scratchin' his head and snortin' around

    "I give up," the station man said
    "where's the gas cap?" (my face turned red)
    I knowed there was something, as my mind went blank
    I forgot to install a gasoline tank

    À L'ombre Bleue Du Figuier
    Composer(s): Michelle Senlis
    Performer(s): Jean Ferrat



    À l'ombre bleue du figuier
    Passent passent les étés
    À l'ombre bleue du figuier
    Passent passent ils sont passés

    J'étais comme les bergers
    Un chien fou sur les talons
    J'étais comme les bergers
    Moitié blé moitié chardon
    Voyant se lever le jour
    J'y croyais à chaque fois
    L'amour appelle l'amour
    J'étais prince je suis roi

    À l'ombre bleue du figuier
    Passent passent les étés
    À l'ombre bleue du figuier
    Passent passent ils sont passés

    Ivre comme les oiseaux
    J'étais poussé par le vent
    Ivre commes les oiseaux
    Je me suis cogné souvent
    J'allais cherchant dans la brume
    Une lampe ou un drapeau
    J'y ai laissé quelques plumes
    Mais j'ai gardé mon chapeau

    À l'ombre bleue du figuier
    Passent passent les étés
    À l'ombre bleue du figuier
    Passent passent ils sont passés

    À la bouche une chanson
    Dans mon coeur un amour fou
    À la bouche une chanson
    J'ai rêvé que jusqu'au bout
    On dira qui était-il
    Me jetant des roses-thé
    Moi je dormirai tranquille
    Heureux d'avoir pu chanter

    À l'ombre bleue du figuier
    Passent passent les étés
    À l'ombre bleue du figuier
    Passent passent ils sont passés

    Hopped Up Mustang
    Composer(s): Bill Romberger; Arlen Sanders
    Performer(s): Arlen Sanders



    Let me tell ya about my new steed
    built for comfort, just my speed
    Ford Mustang, modified to set the pace
    Man, I could hardly wait to get out'n'race

    It's got a 289 motor, with a special Cobra kit
    there ain't nothin' on the road that can even touch it
    It's got eight carburetors and it uses them all
    with a four-speed stick that just won't stall

    With that transistor iginition and power-pipe exhaust
    this is the machine that'll really get lost
    Everthing built to make it perform
    it may not be hot but it sure is warm

    We took delivery at the factory late one night
    it was purrin' like a kitten and movin' just right
    We pulled up on the freeway like it was goin' down hill
    and started passin' the sleds like they was standin' still

    Then all of a sudden, before I could bat an eye
    a Cadillac sedan passed me by
    Somebody said, like, "that's the wheels for me"
    but by then the tail lights was all I could see

    Well, these cats ribbed me for bein' behind
    so I started to make that Mustang unwind
    Pushed the foot-feed clear to the floor
    said "that's all there is, there ain't no more"

    Smoke was rollin' outta the back
    when I started to gain on that Cadillac
    I was sure I could catch him 'n' I hoped I could pass
    but by then I knew I'd be short on gas

    We went around a curve and passed a truck
    I pulled out my rabitt's foot, just for luck
    The fenders just missed the guardrail post
    the guy in the back was white as a ghost

    I glanced over at the chick on the other side
    her face was blue 'n' I thought she'd died
    But I wasn't worried, 'cause what the heck
    by now me 'n' that Caddy was neck-and-neck

    I guess they'd thought I'd lost my sense
    the telephone poles looked like a picket fence
    They said "slow down, I see spots
    the lines on the road just look like dots"

    Went around a corner with the tires on the side
    you could feel the tension, man, what a ride
    I said "hold on, I got a license to fly"
    and that Cadillac faded back and let me by

    Then I looked in the mirror 'n' saw somethin' comin'
    and I thought it was a plane by the way it was hummin'
    I'd been caught by a helicopter 'n' the CHP
    that was it, man, the end of me

    Well, they busted me and threw me in the can
    so there was nothin' I could do but call the old man
    He said "wail in jail, 'cause I won't bail"
    Dang me, he told me not to hop up that Mustang!

    Composer(s): Howard Barnes - Michael Feahy - Ethelbert Nevin
    Performer(s): Doris Day



    Lovely day on top of a load of hay
    All the world is millions of miles away
    The old grey mare will get us there
    She won't hurry and I should worry I haven't got a care

    I'm o.k. on top of a load of hay
    Hard at work with nothing to do all day
    My only view, a sky of blue
    Life is lovely because you told me you love me

    Sun slowly sinking, wish you were with me
    I'm thinking your arms around me
    Oh what a thrill it would be
    Every day on top of a load of hay

    I'm the queen of everything I survey
    The sun is bright, the world's alright
    I'm contented cause you've consented to marry me
    Life is lovely because you told me you love me

    Sun slowly sinking, wish you were with me
    I'm thinking your arms around me
    Oh what a thrill it would be
    Every day on top of a load of hay

    I'm the queen of everything I survey
    The sun is bright, the world's alright
    I'm contented 'cause you've consented to marry me
    I'm contented 'cause you've consented to marry me

    Hot Rod Rocket
    Composer(s): Charlie Ryan; W.S. Stevenson
    Performer(s): Charlie Ryan



    You heard of the Russians 'n' their man in space
    they say we're behind in this rocket race
    Well up in Washington they started thinkin'
    they needed the cat with the Hot Rod Lincoln

    'Cause he was half of the Hot Rod Race
    the Hot Rod Lincoln, 'n' the Burlington Chase
    "Pass the Russians" was their battle cry
    or they'll rule the world as well as the sky

    Now the kid that was drivin' that hopped up hack
    turned twenty-one just a while back
    He got a letter from his Uncle Sam
    he hopped in his rod & said "Here I Am"

    Down at Canavaral not long after that
    who should I see but the hot rod cat
    Boarded the missile with a smile on his face
    I knew right then there was gonna be a race

    When the hatch was shut on his channeled rod
    I heard him sing out to a gathered crowd
    "don't stand to close when I throttle her back
    man this rod is mean, like there ain't no slack"

    When the count-down came, later that day
    blasted off, he was up-and-away
    Screamed off the pad with his hot machine
    wastin' no time pouring on the steam

    Then all of a sudden, way up ahead
    he spied a Russian in his rocket red
    He pushed the button 'n' gave her a blast
    'n' went into orbit, and I do mean fast

    Passed old Jupiter, headed for Mars
    clippin' them off up there in the stars
    Commin' up fast, away out in space
    like, man, they was havin' a rocket race

    The Kid never frowned on an honest race
    as long as it was done in a proper place
    He gave her a blast, to make her unwind
    he was gainin' fast, commin' up from behind

    He was hummin' along at a frantic clip
    'cause there was no speed limit on this trip
    The cat in the Lincoln was takin' a ride
    'n' him 'n' that Russian was side-by-side

    There wasn't a crowd out there in space
    him 'n' that Sputnik was havin' a race
    He figgered that he could get enough force
    to steer the Russian off'n his course

    Heading for the sun, where it's good 'n' hot
    so he blasted off just one more pot
    Eased over beside him, and crowded him out
    sure enough the Russian had'a turn 'em about

    Countries are bettin', and the stakes are high
    on just who is gonna rule the sky
    Now this is not the end of this here race
    'cause that hot rod cat's still out in space

    We haven't heard lately, but we will soon
    that hot rod cat's headed for the moon
    Time stands still when you're out in space
    but man we're havin' a rocket race

    A Little White Gardenia
    Composer(s): Sam Coslow
    Performer(s): Al Bowlly
    and multiple other artists



    For I bring a little white gardenia
    As refreshing as a day in May
    You may wear it if you care
    Or toss it away

    If you look into this white gardenia
    There's a message there I dare not say
    That I'll let this little white gardenia convey

    Who knows tomorrow we may be
    Together or so far apart
    Take this token of my love
    Cherish it and keep it close to your heart

    If our paths should ever cross again dear
    Accidentally, or by fate designed
    If you wear a little white gardenia
    I'll know you are mine

    Who knows tomorrow we may be
    Together or so far apart
    Take this token of my love
    Cherish it and keep it close to your heart

    If our paths should ever cross again dear
    Accidentally, or by fate designed
    If you wear a little white gardenia
    I'll know you are mine

    X-15
    Composer(s): Johnny Bond
    Performer(s): Johnny Bond



    Gather 'round you cat's 'n' you'll hear
    about a race I had in the stratosphere
    Ol' Joe had a slick jet, I mean
    and I flew a souped-up X-15

    Now don't tune me out, I know what you're a-thinkin'
    'n I ain't gonna bug ya with no Hot Rod Lincoln
    No, that was a long time ago
    by my grandad back in nineteen six-oh

    But now it's a-nineteen'n'ninety seven
    we raced our jets next door to heaven
    So if you're ready I'll start at the top
    once I get a-goin' I won't wanna stop

    Well they fastened our jets up under the wing
    of one of them big B70 things
    lifted us up to 80,000 feet
    where the atmosphere and the stratosphere meet

    Well, they cut us loose, and we cut away out
    broke the sound barrier, there's not doubt
    Gave her the gun, heard the motors purr
    revved her up to 4,000 per

    Off to my left, ol' Joe was a-whistlin'
    he was doin' okay in that rocket of hizzin'
    it was half past two when we left Nevada
    now passin' below, Denver, Colorada

    I noticed I was fallin' a little behind
    so I thought I'd make this ol' turtle unwind
    This little baby is sweeter than sweet
    at a hundred and forty-four thousand feet

    Now this X-15 is a goin' thing
    got two little stubs, they call it a wing
    won't help you much if the motor stalls
    hey, lookie below, Niagra Falls

    I kept goin' up on a two-degree course
    ol' Joe kept comin', he weren't ridin' no horse
    I noticed my (?) was a-makin' commotion
    about the time we reached the Atlantic ocean

    Now 'long about here, supposed to turn 'em around
    and gather more speed as we angle 'em down
    Sumpin' had happened, I heard a loud pop
    looked out in time to see both motors stop

    Now this little dip wasn't wrote in the script
    when them jets went out I nearly quit
    'cause when this dang thing starts to fall
    it floats like a two-ton cannonball

    Wait just a minute, sumpin' wrong here
    this thing ain't fallin', goin' high in the air
    faster'n'faster, the higher we go
    how we gonna get down, man I don't know

    Well we circled the Earth in three hours flat
    yes I'm in orbit, no doubt about that
    here I sit, just circlin' in space
    what's that?
    Don't ask me, I don't know who won the race

    A Little Voice
    Composer(s): Gluck - Lester
    Performer(s): Dean Martin



    A little voice deep within me
    Says our romace is through
    I've been suspicious lately
    Your coldness gave me the clue

    A little voice deep within me
    Says we're drifting apart
    The way you say "I love you"
    No longer comes from your heart

    I wanna hear you tell me that your love still is strong
    I want those old embraces to prove my fears are wrong

    You'll find that someday if you'll leave me
    I will know how how to cry
    But that little voice within me
    Won't know how to tell you goodbye

    But that little voice within me
    Won't know how to tell you goodbye

    Hot Rod Boogie
    Composer(s): Dorse Lewis

    Rock It Boys!

    Now I went to the junk yard the other day
    Justta take a load a scrap iron away
    Now I got off to a pretty good start
    when I traded my junk for some used car parts
    I took 'em home and I never stopped
    'n' I put 'em together, and here's what I've got
    (setta dice...shake, rattle and roll, roll 'er boys)

    Now, the cab and chassis of a model-A
    and the springs and shackels of a Chevrolet
    A Mercury motor and a Dodge rear end
    and the fenders off an old Terraplane
    Fuel pump off a GMC and the windshield off an ol' Model-T
    Two big axles, one-a them dead
    off a Studebaker 'n' a President (split axles makes it boogie)

    Now, it's got a Crosley tire and a Cadillac tube
    a Buick carbureter and a Henry J hood (all parts interchange)
    Plymouth radiator and Chrysler lights
    'n' a generator off an old Willys Knight
    The gearshift up on the steering wheel
    and the emergency off an Olds-O-Mobile, a Rocket 88 (rock it boys)

    Now it's got the Kaiser looks 'n' the Frazer shape
    a Pontiac horn 'n' Packard licence plates (violatin')
    When I flunged it together I had a lot of fun
    everybody asked me, "do you think that'll run?"

    Well I got it to run and I started to town
    and a motorcycle cop aimed to chase me down
    I knew he's close't, I could see in the mirror
    I said "heck, bud, I'm still in second gear"

    So I give it the gas, 'n' with m'double clutch
    and I left him not a-makin' much (about a hunderd and four)
    When the speedometer hit a hunderd and five
    I felt it drop into overdrive
    and then it started viberatin', shimmyin' 'n' goin' inta the boogie

    Now its top speed I'd hate to try to tell
    because I think it's faster'n jet propelled
    Don't ask me to buy 'cause I won't sell my Hot Rod
    but if you want to take a ride just drop me a line
    If you got the money honey, I've got the time (we'll go hotroddin')

    A Little TLC
    Composer(s): Lynsey de Paul - Terry Britten
    Performer(s): Kidd Video (Bryan Scott)



    I got your heart, baby, you got mine
    We got a love of a different kind
    The kind of love that will stand the test
    'Cause you give your best...tenderness

    There's not a thing, baby, we can't do
    If we're together, we'll see it through
    I got your heart and your sweet caress
    Nothing less! tenderness

    A little TLC, from you to me
    TLC...Tender Loving Care
    A little tender loving care

    You give your love, you give everything
    You let me know what you're feeling
    You put an end to my emptiness
    My SOS, for tenderness

    A little TLC, from you to me
    TLC...Tender Loving Care
    A little tender loving care

    (Give me T!) The tenderness, nothing less
    (L!) The love that I need
    (Give me C!) Sweet caress, love care and tenderness
    (T... L... C!) All I need's a little...

    A little TLC, from you to me
    TLC...Tender Loving Care
    A little tender loving care

    Hot Rod Race, Navy Style
    Composer(s): Roger Woodward
    Performer(s): Woodward Brothers



    Well me and my buddy, ol' Swabby Joe
    took off in a can from ol' Sassbo
    The chow was poor 'n' the fuel was low
    but the doggone can could really go

    Along about in the middle of the night
    we were steamin' along like a tin can might
    when a cruiser behind us blinked her lights
    blew her whistle and pulled to the right

    Well we had twin screws on our old can
    which makes you think that we're in a jam
    but f'you swabs who don't get this kinda jive
    we had six boilers with overdrive

    Now we're tin can men, and we likely knew
    that we'd race all night, 'less somethin blew
    The stern was down from the turn of the screws
    as on through the waves we flew and flew

    Our exec was pale, he said he was sick
    but us tin can men knew he was just a hick
    Why should we worry, what the heck
    that cruiser 'n' us were still neck-and-neck

    Yes on through the ocean we did glide
    a'flyin' low with the throttle wide
    Our skipper screamed and the crew they cried
    but the doggone cruiser was still right beside

    Well we looked over the fantail, where sumpin' was a comin'
    we thought it was a jet by the way it was a hummin'
    It was a'comin' along at a terrible pace
    and we knew right then was the end of this race

    As it steamed passed us we looked the other way
    and the cruiser's crew, they had nothin' to say
    For there goin' by was a reserve JG
    pushin' a hopped-up LST

    A Little Thing Like Love
    Composer(s): Allan Clarke - Tony Macaulay
    Performer(s): The Hollies



    Took you from Dakota from the Black Hills to the plains
    I brought you up a lady and the right way to behave
    Turned my pockets inside-out and not a dime was saved
    and now you're trying to decide whether to go or stay

    Don't let a little thing like love keep on bringing you down, my babe
    or ever change the plans you made
    Don't let a little thing like tears keep on turning you 'round, my babe
    You're old enough to change your ways
    And if you're feeling all run down, you look for the brighter lights uptown
    Don't let a little thing like me ever stand in your way

    Took you on a fast train across the Rio Grande
    a Mexicano wedding with a Tijuana band
    You blew my whole life savings and all the gold I'd panned
    So if you're trying to find a way to say your sweet goodbyes

    You're old enough to change your ways
    And if you're feeling all run down
    you look for the right to light the town
    Don't let a little thing like me
    ever stand in your way
    Don't let a little thing like love

    Hot Rod Race No.5 (aka The Kid In The Model-A)
    Composer(s): Arkie Shibley
    Performer(s): Arkie Shibley



    I'm just the kid from the hot rod race
    the one that the cops wouldn't even chase
    I didn't think they'd get so hot
    I's just drivin' along in my hopped-up pot

    When I saw two cars on the road ahead
    a-racin' like mad, to myself I said
    "I'll have some fun an' pass 'em by far
    they think they're so hot in their brand new cars"

    I let her out a little bit more
    I pushed the foot clean to the floor
    "I'll show those guys who's in top place
    I'll really give 'em a hot rod race

    I bent a little further over the wheel
    and felt the floorboard beneath my heel
    I heard the sudden roar of my old exhaust pipe
    I knew right then the race they'd fight

    I rolled up behind 'em an' give 'em a blast
    to let 'em know I's about to pass
    but they didn't budge, and their wild, mad ride
    they stayed ahead an' was side-by-side

    So I took to the ditch to get by the flight
    I scattered sand to the left and sand to the right
    It didn't even slow their speed
    my Model-A has what I need

    Now I passed up the guys in that race
    I've got us back to a normal pace
    I got her by without a spill
    whoa, boy, it was quite a thrill

    If ya ever get mad at a hot rod kid
    remember the things that once't you did
    when you were young, carefree and gay
    and had a hopped-up Model-A

    and multiple other artists



    It's just a little street
    Where old friends meet
    I'd love to wander back
    Someday

    To you, it may be old
    And sort of tumbled down,
    But it means a lot to folks
    In my hometown

    Although I'm rich or poor
    I still feel sure
    I'm welcome as the flowers in May

    It's just a little street
    Where old friends meet
    And treat you in the same old way

    Although I'm rich or poor
    I still feel sure
    I'm welcome as the flowers in May

    It's just a little street
    Where old friends meet
    And treat you in the same old way

    Hot Rod Race No.4 (aka The Guy In The Mercury)
    Composer(s): George Wilson
    Performer(s): Arkie Shibley



    You've heard'a the guy an' his brother Joe
    who took off in their Ford from San Pedro
    an' how they raced through deserts wide
    with a Mercury that stayed right by their side

    Now I'm the guy who was in that Merc
    an' I'm callin' myself all kind of a jerk
    for ever tryin' that kind've a race
    I might have known I'd lose my face

    But the road was straight 'n' the road was wide
    'n' me 'n' that Ford stayed side by side
    I stuck to him through thick an' thin
    but I knew all the time I's riskin' my skin

    When the hopped-up Model-A blew a'past
    I wondered then how long it would last
    but I didn't have too long to wait
    to see what would happen, to learn my fate

    The cop's heads, who spun in fright
    got on their bikes an' took to flight
    They came up behind me with a siren blast
    I knew right then my fun had passed

    The guy in the Ford kept racin' on
    he was tryin' to catch that son-of-a-gun
    who was drivin' that hot rod Model-A
    but I didn't have a thing to say

    Now I'm sittin' here alone in the klink
    with plenty of time to wonder and think
    I pace the floor, I frume an' fret
    I don't even have a cigarette

    Oh, why did I ever get in that race
    to end up here in this awful place?
    Should have had more sense, is all I can say
    don't ever race with a kid in a hopped-up Model-A
