Ain't None Of Your Business Composer(s): Gene Simmons - Eric Carr - Vinnie Vincent Performer(s): Kiss
Ain't here to tell, so get a grip I ain't really what you think I ain't guilty or innocent Don't play a fool, don't turn your back You ask me why, well listen Jack
You'd better practice what you preach 'Cause there ain't nothing you can teach me Won't wear a target on my back I won't stand for no third degree I don't care what you think of me
I'll do as I like I'll do as I please Don't ask me why
They go to church, they go to school Ain't none of your business But I ain't nobody's fool Ain't none of your business Make a right, make a wrong Ain't none of your business Or I may sing a different song Ain't none of your business
Don't try to label who I am It's one thing you'll never understand Just keep your thoughts to yourself Don't play a fool, don't turn your back You ask me why, well listen Jack
I'll do as I like I'll do as I please Don't ask me why
Bite off more than I can chew Ain't none of your business Don't tell me what to do Ain't none of your business They go to church, they go to school Ain't none of your business But I ain't nobody's fool Ain't none of your business They rule the world, they sell it whole Ain't none of your business They socialize, they live a lie Ain't none of your business Ain't none of your business
When The Angelus Is Ringing Composer(s): Joe Young; Bert Grant
Love time, love time can't you understand when it is love time Birds sing bells ring, love just seems to ring with every chime Ding dong dong ding, loves messages they bring
Two hearts true hearts all the world is full of loving sweet hearts I'll bring the ring, to the pealing of each silvry chime Ding dong dong ding, all nature seems in rhyme
When the angelus is ringing in the belfry on the hill And the whirpoolwill is singing in the night, when all is still I am waiting for the time when I can come to you and sing loves sweet song While the silvry bells peal out their dong ding dong Down the road of love we'll wander 'mid the violets perfume to the little cottage yonder where we'll spend our honeymoon And as we go through life from year to year Cares and worries disappear, when the angelus is ringing, dear
When That Man Is Dead And Gone Composer(s): Irving Berlin Performer(s): Al Bowlly; and various other artists
When that man is dead and gone When that man is dead and gone Well go dancing down the street Kissing everyone we meet When that man is dead and gone
What a day to wake up on What a way to greet the dawn Some fine day the newsll flash Satan with a small moustache Is asleep beneath the lawn When that man is dead and gone
Satan, Satan, thought up a plan Dressed as a man Walking the earth and since he began The world is hell for you and me But what a heaven it will be
When that man is dead and gone When that man is dead and gone When they lay him twelve feet deep Ill be there to laugh, not weep When that man is dead and gone
What a day to wake up on What a way to greet the dawn Satanll take him by the hand To meet old Gerring, look what, man When that man is dead and gone When that man is dead and gone
Some fine day the newsll flash Satan with a small moustache Is asleep beneath the lawn When that man is dead and gone
What a day to wake up on What a way to greet the dawn When a certain man is dead and gone

If my man ain't got no money and I say take all mine honey 't Ain't nobody's bizness if I do
If I give him my last nickle and it leaves me in a pickle 't Ain't nobody's bizness if I do
I'd rather my man would hit me than for him to jump up and quit me 't Ain't nobody's bizness if I do
I swear I won't call no coppa if I'm beat up by my poppa 't Ain't nobody's bizness if I do
Nobody's bizness, ain't nobody's bizness Nobody's biznes if I do
When Sunny Gets Blue Composer(s): Jack Segal; Marvin Fisher Performer(s): Johnny Mathis
When Sunny gets blue, her eyes get gray and cloudy Then the rain begins to fall Pitter-patter, pitter-patter, love is gone so what can matter? No sweet lovin' man comes to call
When Sunny gets blue, she breathes a sigh of sadness Like the wind that stirs the trees Wind that sets the leaves to swayin' like some violins are playin' Weird and haunting melodies
People used to love to-o-o hear her laugh, see her smile That's how she got her name Since that sad affair she's lost her smile, changed her style Somehow she's not the same
But mem'ries will fade and pretty dreams will rise up Where her other dreams fell through Hurry, new love, hurry here to kiss away each lonely tear And hold her near when Sunny gets blue
Hurry, new love, hurry here to kiss away each lonely tear And hold her near when Sunny gets blue
When Summer Is Gone Composer(s): Sonny Curtis Performer(s): Gary Lewis & The Playboys
I'll see you in September when summer is gone Have a good time but remember, I'll be waiting back home And when you go out dating with some guy all alone Just remember I'll be waiting when summer is gone
When the warm June nights surround you Don't fall under his spell When he puts his arms around you Remember that I loved you so well
And I'll see you in September when summer is gone Have a good time but remember Come back to me when summer is gone
When the warm June nights surround you Don't fall under his spell When he puts his arms around you Remember that I loved you so well
And I'll see you in September when summer is gone Have a good time but remember Come back to me when summer is gone
Ain't Nobody Home (In California) Composer(s): John Kay Performer(s): John Kay
When I returned here back from the Islands You know I couldn't say enough 'bout old Kauai But now I'm out here on the road Calling friends back home But I just get the phone machine and this reply
Ain't nobody home in California All your friends have gone to Molokai Ain't nobody home in California Everybody's off to see Hawaii
May your journey seem forever May the Islands touch your heart And if you leave it all the way you found it May the peace that you'll find never part
I wish I'd be there, back in the Islands You know, I'd ride along the beach at Hana Bay But I'm stuck in Waco, Texas At the Paradise Motel And now there's no one waiting for me in L.A. 'Cause
Nobody's home in California All your friends have gone to Molokai Ain't nobody home in California Everybody's off to see Hawaii
Soon my travels will be over And soon a plane will take me home And just as soon I can make it over I'll be leaving these words on my phone

There ain't nobody here but us chickens There ain't nobody here at all You're stompin' around and shakin' the ground Youre Kicking up an ful dust We chickens tryin' to sleep and you bust in And hobble, hobble, hobble, hobble, it's a sin
Tomorrow is a busy day We got things to do, we got eggs to lay Worms to catch, ground to scratch It takes a lot of sittin', gettin' chicks to hatch
There aint nobody here but us chickens There aint nobody here at all So quiet yourself and stop that fuss There aint nobody here but us And kindly point that gun the other way And hobble, hobble, hobble off and hit the hay

When She Loved Me Composer(s): Randy Newman Performer(s): Sarah McLachlan; and various other artists
When somebody loved me Everything was beautiful Every hour we spent together Lives within my heart
And when she was sad I was there to dry her tears And when she was happy so was I When she loved me
Through the summer and the fall We had each other that was all Just she and I together Like it was meant to be And when she was lonely I was there to comfort her And I knew that she loved me
So the years went by I stayed the same But she began to drift away I was left alone Still I waited for the day When she'd say I will always love you
Lonely and forgotten Never thought she'd look my way And she smiled at me And held me Just like she used to do Like she loved me When she loved me
When somebody loved me Everything was beautiful Every hour we spent together Lives within my heart

When Shadows Fall I Hear You Calling California Performer(s): Tot Seymour; Milo Rega
You'll find every native son, when his roaming days are done has a feeling so forlorn for the place where he was born I'm no different from the rest, I've that feeling in my breast I've a longing for the Golden West
I can see each sun kissed hill, it gives me a wholesome thrill and I see the orange tree, that once sheltered you and me I hope I'll be back there soon, mid the roses' sweet perfume where each day is like a day in June
When shadows fall I hear you calling California your sheltering palms stretch out their arms Each gentle breeze brings memories of California in every dream I just seem to be going back to the one I love I know somebody who is waiting to caress me two eyes of blue, said they'd be true I'm going there where the palm trees are swaying that's where I'm longing to be two loving arms beneath the palms are calling me
