Whole Lotta Things To Sing About
Composer(s): Ben Peters
Performer(s): Charley Pride



I've got a whole lot of things to sing about
I've gotta whole lotta things to say
Like I love you and I need you
Every night and day

I've gotta a whole lot of things I wanna do
I've gotta a whole lotta dreams to dream
And I want you here beside me
Every step of the way

I was lonely as anyone could ever be
'Til you came along and gave your love to me
Now that empty world that you just walked into
Is filled with sunshine and music and the song is you

I've got a whole lot of things to sing about
I've gotta whole lotta things to say
Like I love you and I need you
Every night and day

I've gotta a whole lot of things I wanna do
I've gotta a whole lotta dreams to dream
And I want you here beside me
Every step of the way

People wonder just what has happened to me
They say I'm not at all the way I used to be
They don't realize I've just begun to live
And I'm wrapped up completely in all the love you give

I've got a whole lot of things to sing about
I've gotta whole lotta things to say
Like I love you and I need you
Every night and day

I've gotta a whole lot of things I wanna do
I've gotta a whole lotta dreams to dream
And I want you here beside me
Every step of the way... 

Watching Scotty Grow
Composer(s): Mac Davis
Performer(s): Mac Davis;
and various other artists



There he sits with a pen and a yellow pad
He's a handsome lad
That's my boy

B-R-L-F-Q spells Mom and Dad
That ain't too bad
That's my boy

You can have your TV and your nightclubs
You can have your drive-in picture shows
I'll sit here and drink a beer and listen to the radio
Bidin' my time and and watching Scotty grow

Makin' castles out of building blocks
And a cardboard box
That's my boy

Mickey Mouse says it's thirteen o'clock
Well, that's quite a shock
But that's my boy

In four short years I've gone from rags to riches
But what I did before that I don't know
Well you can let it rain on my windowpane, I got my own rainbow
And we're just sittin' here shinin' watching Scotty grow

Up on daddy's shoulders and off to bed
Old sleepy head
That's my boy

Got to have a drink of water and a story read
An old teddy bear named Fred
That's my boy

Well, what's that your say Momma, come on and keep your feet warm
Well save me a place, I'll be there in a minute or so
I'll think I'll stay right here and say a little prayer before I go
'Cause me and God are watching Scotty grow
Me and God watching are Scotty grow

A Whole Lot Of Lovin'
Composer(s): Jules Bihari - Riley King

I got a whole lot o' lovin', baby, just waiting for you
I got a whole lot o' loving, baby, just waitin' for you
And the way I can love you woman, honey, I know you can love me too

Well, you're so good lookin', baby, and your built up from the ground
Well, you're so good lookin', baby, and your built up from the ground
Ev'ry time I see you baby, my love starts tumblin' down

Yeah, you're just my height baby, just my height and size
Say, you just my type babe, you just my height and size
And the reason I love you, because you got them little dreamy eyes

Watching My Past Go By
Composer(s): Ernest Tubb
Performer(s): Ernest Tubb



I'm sitting here alone 
So many years have gone
And yet it seems like only yesterday
That you were by my side 
We laughed dear and we cried
Those memories refused to go away

There's memories that always bring me sorrow 
And memories I'll treasure till I die
No matter what they bring 
I wouldn't change a thing
I'm sitting here Watching My Past Go By

Ah here’s Leon

There's smiling eyes of blue 
Would love light shining through
Then like a flash those eyes seem strange and cold
The picture that I see is only meant for me 
Just memories I’ve locked within my soul

There's memories that always bring me sorrow 
And memories I'll treasure till I die
No matter what they bring 
I wouldn't change a thing
I'm sitting here Watchin' My Past Go By

A Wink And A Smile
Composer(s): Ramsey McLean - Marc Shaiman
Performer(s): Harry Connick Jr.
and multiple other artists



I remember the days
of just keeping time
of hanging around in sleepy towns, forever
Back roads empty for miles
well you cant have a dream
and cut it to fit
but when I saw you, I knew
we go together, like a wink and a smile
Leave your old jallopy
by the railroad track
we'll get a hip, double dip, tip toppy, 2 seat pontiac
So you can rev her up
don't go slow
It's only green lights and alright
let's go together with a wink and a smile

Give me a wink and a smile

We go together like a wink and a smile
Now my heart is music
such a simple song
singing again, the notes never end
this is where I belong
Just the sound of your voice
the light in your eyes
Your so far away from yesterday
Together, with a wink and a smile
We go together, like a wink and a smile

Watchin' Joey Glow
Composer(s): Steve Goodman; Sean Kelly
Performer(s): Steve Goodman



Down here in the shelter, we've got everything we need
Mom put up her peach preserves 
Pa's got a book to read
Sister knits some bandages, and we turn the lights down low
And play some Scrabble, watching Joey glow

At breakfast Mom hands Joe the bread, and he turns it into toast
Last night he hugged a leg of lamb, and soon we had a roast
You should see him heat the coffee up when he stirs it with his toe
We all get hungry, watching Joey glow

You have to wear dark glasses if you look at him a while
Or he'll fry your little eyes out with his incandescant smile

At Chistmastime, it sure felt strange, but it was great to see
The way we decorated Joe as if he was our tree
And his star was shining brightly underneath the mistletoe
So we blew him kisses, watching Joey glow

I hope the world's not over, for my sake and for his
I'd love for everyone to know how brilliant Joey is

We've been down here for six months now, and we're proud to be alive
We owe it to America to sit here and survive
So we listen to the static on the short wave radio
And count the shock waves, watching Joey glow

Watch What Happens
Composer(s): Michel Legrand; Jacques Demy; Norman Gimbel
Performer(s): Andy Williams;
and various other artists



Let someone start believing in you
Let him hold out his hand
Let him touch you and watch what happens

One someone who can look in your eyes
And see into your heart
Let him find you and watch what happens

Cold, no I won't believe your heart is cold
Maybe just afraid to be broken again

Let someone with a deep love to give
Give that deep love to you
And what magic you'll see

Let someone with a deep love to give
Give that deep love to you
And what magic you'll see

Let someone give his heart
Someone who cares like me

Let someone give his heart
Someone who cares like me

Whistling Tune
Composer(s): Sherman Edwards - Hal David
Performer(s): Elvis Presley



Did you ever notice when the sun goes down
Out of nowhere comes a strange and pretty sound
It's a whistling tune for walking in the night
If you listen you can hear it in the breeze
Specially when the breeze is drifting through the trees

It's a whistling tune for walking in the night
And the murmuring waters sing the song
The echoing mountains hum along
The whispering valleys fill the air
With a whistling tune our hearts can share

It's so wonderful to walk beneath the moon
Listening to old mother nature's favorite tune
It's a whistling tune for walking in the night

Watch The North Wind Rise
Composer(s): Jorma Kaukonen
Performer(s): Hot Tuna



Up in the morning watch the north wind rise
Bringin' fire down from the skies
Hey, we got a long way to go
So keep on lovin' and make it slow
chorus:
We're goin' home
Won't be long
Hearing my song
That lovin' you ain't never done no wrong
Well, night time falls like the crack of doom
Fills the sky with a shinin' moon
Silver siren just got to please
Well, fuel me with lovin' down in my knees
chorus
Well, babe be mine one more time
Run your hand down my spine
If you say we've got to go
Take some time for just one more
Well, up in the morning watch the north wind rise
Bringin' fire down from the skies
Hey, we got a long way to go
So keep on lovin' and make it slow
chorus
Well, babe be mine one more time
Run your hand down my spine
If you say we've got to go
Take some time for just one more
Well, babe be mine one more time
Run your hand down my spine
If you say we've got to go
Take some time for just one more

Well Respected Man
((French Version: Un Jeune Homme Bien (by Petula Clark))
Composer(s): Ray Davies
Performer(s): The Kinks
and multiple other artists



'Cause he gets up in the morning
And he goes to work at nine
And he comes back home at five-thirty
Gets the same train every time
'Cause his world is built 'round punctuality
It never fails
And he's oh, so good
And he's oh, so fine
And he's oh, so healthy
In his body and his mind
He's a well respected man about town
Doing the best things so conservatively
And his mother goes to meetings
While his father pulls the maid
And she stirs the tea with councilors
While discussing foreign trade
And she passes looks, as well as bills
At every suave young man
'Cause he's oh, so good
And he's oh, so fine
And he's oh, so healthy
In his body and his mind
He's a well respected man about town
Doing the best things so conservatively
And he likes his own backyard
And he likes his fags the best
'Cause he's better than the rest
And his own sweat smells the best
And he hopes to grab his father's loot
When Pater passes on
'Cause he's oh, so good
And he's oh, so fine
And he's oh, so healthy
In his body and his mind
He's a well respected man about town
Doing the best things so conservatively
And he plays at stocks and shares
And he goes to the Regatta
And he adores the girl next door
'Cause he's dying to get at her
But his mother knows the best about
The matrimonial stakes
'Cause he's oh, so good
And he's oh, so fine
And he's oh, so healthy
In his body and his mind
He's a well respected man about town
Doing the best things so conservatively

Watch The Flowers Grow
Composer(s): Raymond Bloodworth; L. Russell Brown
Performer(s): Frankie Valli & The Four Seasons



[Watch the flowers grow, watch 'em grow]
Did you ever see a flower grow?
If you did then you would surely know
Love is like the flowers
Takes a lot of hours
If you really want to know
Watch the flowers grow

Listen to my thoughts and take a ride
I shall give you all you've been denied
First you gotta slow down
Listen to my sweet sound
If you really want to know
Watch the flowers grow

Over the mountain there's a sweet meadow
A breeze is blowin', so take my hand and we can
Watch the flowers grow

Let me take you where the flowers grow
Let me be the one who told you so
I'll love you forever,
I will leave you never
Baby let's go,
Watch the flowers grow.

[Watch the flowers grow, watch 'em grow]
[Repeat]

A Well-Known Has-Been
Composer(s): Donovan
Performer(s): Donovan



Tonight my life is heavy, I'm weak and down at heel
The prisoner in the dungeon will know just how I feel
I'm a well known has-been, a well known has-been
I've got a brand on me
When I look at my tomorrows, sorrow's all I see
Sorrow's all I see, sorrow's all I see, sorrow's all I see
How sad my disposition, how long can it I bear?
How deep my melancholy, can anybody care?
For the well known has-been, the well known has-been
I've got a brand on me, yeah
When I look at my tomorrows, sorrow's all I see
Sorrow's all I see, sorrow's all I see, sorrow's all I see
Well known has-been
Well known has-been
Well known has-been, ooh, ooh, ooh
I pretend I'm unaffected by the chains that bear me down
And when only those who love me can see behind the frown
I'm the well known has-been, the well known has-been
I got a brand on me
When I look at my tomorrows, sorrow's all I see
Sorrow's all I see, sorrow's all I see, sorrow's all I see
>From these broken days of anguish, some day soon I'm gonna rise
I'm gonna raise my head to Heaven, I'm gonna fly the starry skies
And the well known has-been, the well known has-been
I'll lose the brand on me, yeah
Today's all I see, today's all I see, today's all I see

Watch Me
Composer(s): Gary Burr; Tom Shapiro
Performer(s): Lorrie Morgan



The more I needed, the less you gave
I guess you thought that it worked that way
You never would listen
And now that I'm leaving
You're not believing
A word I say 

(Chorus)
Oh, If you think I won't go
Watch me
Oh, watch me prove you wrong today
You don't even know you've lost me
You think I'd always stay
Oh, just watch me walk away 

Don't tell me that it can't be done
That the world is colder without someone
Yeah, it might get lonely
It might get crazy
But this time baby, I'm as good as gone 

(Repeat chorus) 

Cab on the street
Hand on the door
Bag at my feet
Need I say more

Oh watch me

You don't even know you've lost me
You think I'd always stay
Oh, just watch me walk away 
Oh, just watch me walk away

(Repeat chorus) 

Yeah, if you think I won't go
Watch me
Oh Watch me proove you wrong today
You don't even know you lost me 
You think I'd always stay
Oh, just watch me walk away
Oh, just watch me walk away

A Weekend In The Country
From the film "The Barkleys Of Broadway" (1949)
Composer(s): Harry Warren - Ira Gershwin
Performer(s): Fred Astaire, Ginger Rogers, Oscar Levant



(Josh:) With golf and tennis 'round you
And no cares to hound you
(Dinah:) When Mother Nature beckons, who can decline?
(Ezra:) Till Mother Nature vetoes
The bees and mosquitoes
Mother Nature is no mother of mine!
(Josh & Dinah:) From Saturday night to Monday morn
There's always joy ahead
(Ezra:) From Saturday night to Monday morn
I wish that I were dead!

(Josh & Dinah:) A weekend in the country
Never will let you down
(Ezra:) You'll pardon my effront'ry
I'd rather spend it in town
(Josh & Dinah:) A weekend in the country
Healthy and full of sport
(Dinah:) And then it isn't small potatoes
(Josh:) When you get those fresh tomatoes
(Ezra:) I've a list of fresh tomatoes
Sueing me now in court!

(Dinah:) Ah, gimme the milk from the moo cow
(Josh:) Of corn right from the field I'm fond
(Ezra:) In town I'd be splurgin'
On Venison and Sturgeon
Bestride a beautiful blonde
(Josh & Dinah:) A weekend gets you sunburned
Vitamin A you win
(Ezra:) I'd rather get back unburned
With my original skin
(Josh & Dinah:) A weekend in the country
Glorious, there's no doubt
(Ezra:) A weekend in the country
What's the next train out?

(Josh & Dinah:) A weekend in the country
Trees in the orchard call
(Ezra:) When you've examined one tree
Then you've examined them all
(Josh & Dinah:) A weekend in the country
Happily we endorse
(Dinah:) Come get your share of nature's bounty
(Josh:) Ride the trail around the county
(Ezra:) I am no Canadian mounty
Why do I need a horse?

(Dinah:) Hark, hark to the song of the bull frog
(Josh:) At dawn, you'll rise up with the lark
(Ezra:) When roosters will riot
I'd much prefer the quiet
Of Forty-Second and Park
(Josh & Dinah:) Get peppy and alivey
Don't be a city poke!
(Ezra:) I once got poison ivy
(Dinah:) Will you try for poison oak?
(Josh:) A weekend in the country
(Dinah:) Dickey-bird's overhead
(Ezra:) A weekend in the country
I should have stayed in bed!

Watch Her Ride
Composer(s): Paul Kantner
Performer(s): Jefferson Airplane



I didn't know you were the one for me 
I couldn't see
But you were waiting
For someone to come along to help you out to sing your song
And I was changing
All I see is you 
All I feel is you for me!

And I would really like to watch you ride
And always feel you by my side
I would really like to watch you ride
All on me!

I go stumbling to the sky, and I seem to fly so high
I see you, I feel you
You have a way of walking 'round your feet they never touch the ground
And you are shining
All I see is you 
All I feel is you for me!

Times don't change 
Times don't ever change for me
And I know that you could be the only thing in my world
The only thing that my mind would find
For love, for love and peace of mind, for me, for me 
Oh

Your Shadow in the morning sun becomes my fun, and we can say
"I love you, love you"
My morning shines on silver beaches, your light flashes to the reaches
Of my mind, my mind, of
My mind, and my mind it comes alive with you
It's all that I can do to sit here and let you blow my mind
Ah! My mind
You're so fine, in my mind you're so fine, in my mind you're so fine
You're so fine, in my mind, you're so fine in mind

A Wedding In Cherokee County
Composer(s): Randy Newman
First release by: Randy Newman - 1974



There she is sitting there 
Out behind the smoke house in her rocking chair
She don't do nothin'
She don't say nothin'
She don't feel nothin'
She don't know nothin'
Maybe she's crazy I don't know
But maybe that's why I love her so

Her papa was a midget
Her mama was a whore
Her grandad was a newsboy 'til he was eighty four
Man don't you think I know she hates me
Man don't you think I know that she's no good
If she knew how she'd be unfaithful to me
I think she'd kill me if she could
Maybe she's crazy I don't know
But maybe that's why I love her so

I'm not afraid of the greywolf
Who stalks through our forest at dawn
As long as I have her beside me
I have the strength to carry on

Today we will be married
And all the freaks that she knows will be there
And all the people from the village will be there
To congratulate us
I will carry her across the threshold
I will make dim the light
I will attempt to spend my love within her
But though I try with all my might
She will laugh at my mighty sword
She will laugh at my mighty sword
Why must everybody laugh at my mighty sword?
Lord, help me if you will
Maybe we're both crazy, I don't know
Maybe that's why I love her so 

Wat Voor Een Gek Denk Je Dat Ik Ben
English Title: What Kind Of Fool (Do You Think I Am)
Composer(s): Ray Whitley; N. Byl
Performer(s): Jimmy Frey



Wat voor een gek denk je dat ik ben
Vraag niet dat ik aan je hielen wen
Gisteren was ik nog je favoriet
Nu doe je reeds of je mij niet ziet 

Wat voor een gek denk je dat ik ben
Wat voor een gek denk je dat hier staat
Omdat hij dwaze figuren slaat
Als hij moet dansen als je fuift
En dan lach je hem nog vierkant uit 

Wat voor een gek denk je dat ik ben
Dacht dat ik je topper was
Nummer 1 van kop tot teen
Dan vloog ik naar bene 

Wat voor een gek denk je dat ik ben
Vraag niet dat ik aan je hielen wen
Gisteren was ik nog je favoriet
Nu doe je reeds of je mij niet ziet 

Wat voor een gek denk je dat ik ben
(verschillende malen)

A Weaver Of Dreams
Composer(s): Victor Young - Jack Elliott
Performer(s): Nat King Cole
and multiple other artists



You're a weaver of dreams
You and your strange fascination
You're a weaver of dreams
You and your come-hither smile

Just to hear you speak
Can leave me weak as a babe in arms
Poor little babe in arms
Helpless before your charms

For you're a weaver of dreams
You and your lips warm and tender
Just like magic it seems
Thrilling, enchanting me too

I'm in your spell and there's no cure
I'm lost for sure
`Cause you're a weaver of dreams
And I'm in love with you

(You're a weaver of dreams
You and your strange fascination
You're a weaver of dreams
You and your come hither smile)

I'm in your spell and there's no cure
I'm lost for sure
`Cause you're a weaver of dreams
And I'm in love with you

(You're a weaver of dreams
You're a weaver of dreams)

Wat Een Leven 
Composer(s): Rocco Granata; Philemon Van Cauwenbergh
Performer(s): Louis Neefs



Als ik ooit eens vijf minuten tijd heb
Dan begin ik er beslist eens aan
Aan ik weet niet wat, maar je zult zien dat
Iedereen er zal verstomd van staan

Als ik ooit eens vijf minuten tijd heb
Morgen of een andere dag misschien
Dan doe ik eens echt iets waarvan men zegt
Nee, dat hebben we nog nooit gezien

Maar ik heb de hele dag toch al zoveel te doen
Eten, drinken, slapen, zoals 't hoort
Hele nachten dromen en dan moe zijn tot de noen
Enzovoort, enzovoort, wat 'n leven

Maar als ik eens vijf minuten tijd heb
Dan kan je er zeker van op aan
Dat ik op een keer, maar wie weet wanneer
Mogelijk eens aan de slag zal gaan

Maar ik heb de hele dag toch al zoveel te doen
Eten, drinken, slapen, zoals 't hoort
Hele nachten dromen en dan moe zijn tot de noen
Enzovoort, enzovoort, wat 'n leven

Maar als ik eens vijf minuten tijd heb
Dan kan je er zeker van op aan
Dat ik op een keer, maar wie weet wanneer
Mogelijk eens aan de slag zal gaan

A Ways To Go
Composer(s): Lainie Marsh
Performer(s): Emmylou Harris; Lainie Marsh



I hear the clock a tickin' 
See the sweat upon my brow 
I know my destination 
Nothing's gonna stop me now 
I'm running on desire 
Baby I've got nerves of steel 
Coming down to the wire 
Lord above me guide the wheel 

Keep me in your prayers tonight 
I'll be weary upon that road 
I know the finish line's in sight 
But I still have a ways to go 

There's a junkyard dog a barkin' 
In the valley down below 
He's wanting me to stop and 
Gather up a heavy load 
Ain't gonna heed his call 
Ain't givin' him the time of day 
You mangy mutt once and for all 
I said I threw that stuff away 

I won't have a bit of trouble 
Heading down the straight and true 
I'll fly solo on the double 
Into the yonder  blue 

I might need some intervention 
Out upon the icy turn 
In a foggy situation 
Squealin' on a hairpin curve 

I'm running on desire 
Baby I've got nerves of steel 
Coming down to the wire 
Lord above me guide the wheel 

Keep me in your prayers tonight 
I'll be weary upon that road 
I know the finish line's in sight 
But I still have a ways to go 
Keep me in your prayers tonight 
I'll be weary upon that road 
I know the finish line's in sight 
But I still have a ways to go 
Got a ways to go, got a ways to go
