At My Time Of Life
Performer(s): Bing Crosby



Who would have thought
What I would find
At my time of life
Quiet days
And peace of mind
At my time of life

Puffin' my pipe
And watching the smoke rings fly
I'm just doing my best
And as for the rest
Just letting the world go by

Calmer somehow
Than ever before
At my time of life
Happiness now
In finally knowing
Just how it's gonna be

Contented, I
That's the word
Contented, as you can see
And at my time of life
That's good enough for me

Contented, I
That's the word
Contented, as you can see
And at my time of life
That's good enough 

At my time of life
Quite good enough
At my time of life
That's good enough for me

Oh me oh my oh you
Whatever shall I do?
Hallelujah, the question is peculiar
I'd give a lot of dough
If only I could know
The answer to my question
Is it yes or is it no?
Does your chewing gum lose its flavor on the bedpost overnight?
If your mother says don't chew it, do you swallow it in spite?
Can you catch it on your tonsils, can you heave it left and right?
Does your chewing gum lose its flavor on the bedpost overnight?
Here comes a blushing bride
The groom is by her side
Up to the altar, just as steady as Gibraltar
The groom has got the ring
And it's such a pretty thing
But as he slips it on her finger
The choir begins to sing
Does your chewing gum lose its flavor on the bedpost overnight?
If your mother says don't chew it, do you swallow it in spite?
Can you catch it on your tonsils, can you heave it left and right?
Does your chewing gum lose its flavor on the bedpost overnight?
Now the nation rise as one
To send their wanted son
Up to the White House, yes, the nation's only White House
To voice their discontent
Unto the Pres-I-dent
The bonny burning question, What has swept this continent?
If tin whistles are made of tin, what do they make fog horns out of?
(Boom! Boom!)
Does your chewing gum lose its flavor on the bedpost overnight?
If your mother says don't chew it, do you swallow it in spite?
Can you catch it on your tonsils, can you heave it left and right?
Does your chewing gum lose its flavor on the bedpost overnight?
On the bedpost overnight
(Hello there, I love you and the one who holds you tight!)
Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Sat'day night!
On the bedpost overnight
(A dollar is a dollar and a dime is a dime!)
He'd sing another chorus but he hasn't got the time!
On the bedpost overnight, yeah!

Crazy little mama come knocking, knocking at my front door door door
Crazy little mama come knocking, knocking at my front door
Crazy little mama come knock, knock, knocking, just like she did before
Woke up this morning with a feeling of despair lookin for my baby and she wasn't there

There stood my baby looking in my eyes

Oh me, oh my, oh you, I don't know what to do
Hallelujah, the question is peculiar
It's got me on the go, I'd give a lot of dough
If someone here would tell me, is it yes or is it no?

Does the spearmint lose its flavor on the bedpost overnight?
If you chew it in the morning, will it be too hard to bite?
Can't you see I'm going crazy, won't somebody put me right?
Does the spearmint lose its flavor on the bedpost overnight?

The nation rose as one and sent its favourite son
To the White House, this mighty country's lighthouse
Before the President, he said that "I've been sent
To solve the burning question that involves the continenet"

Does the spearmint lose its flavor on the bedpost overnight?
Would you use it on your collar when your button's not in sight?
Put your hand beneath your feet and you will find it there alright
Does the spearmint lose its flavor on the bedpost overnight?

Does the spearmint lose its flavor on the bedpost overnight?
If your teacher tells you not to chew it, swallow it for spite
Could you grab it with your tonsils and then swing it left and right?

Here comes a blushing bride, the groom right by her side
To the altar, as steady as Gibraltar
The bridegroom has the ring, it's such a pretty thing
He puts it on her finger and the choir begins to sing

Does the spearmint lose its flavor on the bedpost overnight?
Always place it on your napkin if you want to be polite      
Could you get a job as typist if you couldn't do it right?
Does the spearmint lose its flavor on the bedpost overnight?

Does the spearmint lose its flavor on the bedpost overnight?
Well, it'd make a fellow shut up when he's trying to recite 
Would you give it to your parrot if he isn't cursing right?
Does the spearmint lose its flavor on the bedpost overnight?

At Long Last Love
Composer(s): Cole Porter
First performance/First release by: Clifton Webb/Larry Clinton & His Orch. - 1938
Covered by multiple other artists



I'm so in love, and though it gives me joy intense
I can't decipher, if I'm a lifer
Or if it's just a first offense
I'm so in love, I've no sense of values at all
Is this a playtime affair of Maytime
Or is it a windfall?

Is it an earthquake or simply a shock?
Is it the good turtle soup or merely the mock?
Is it a cocktail this feeling of joy
Or is what I feel the real McCoy?
Is it for all time, or simply a lark?
Is it Granada I see or only Asbury Park?
Is it a fancy not worth thinking of
Or is it at long last love? 

Does My Ring Hurt Your Finger?
Composer(s): Jan Crutchfield
First recording/First release by: Country Charley Pride - 1967



Does my ring hurt your finger
When you go out at night?

Does my ring hurt your finger
When you go out at night?
When I bought it for you, darlin'
It seemed to be just right
Should I take it to the jeweller
So it won't fit so tight?
Does my ring hurt your finger
When you go out at night?

Did you enjoy yourself last night, dear?
How was the show?
You know that I don't mind it, when you go
I understand some times we all need time alone
But why do you always leave your ring at home?

Does my ring hurt your finger
When your away from me?
I'm so proud when you wear it
For all the world to see
Should I take it to the jeweller
So it won't fit so tight?
Does my ring hurt your finger
When you go out at night?

Does my ring hurt your finger
When you go out at night?

At Last! I'm In First With You
Composer(s): Country Washburne
Performer(s): Spike Jones



Oh I'm first at last, I've always been behind before
You never used to have me on your mind before
I thought I'd always be just a lonely little me
But at last I'm first with you

Well I guess I must have waited `bout a hundred years
And I was aggravated by a thousand fears
I really never felt that your little heart would melt
But at last I'm first with you

Well I was sorta scared that you wouldn't be prepared
That you weren't through runnin' round
Just imagine my surprise when I looked into your eyes
And you promised me that we would settle down

And though we're over newly-wed as spooners go
Way out in some suburban honeymooners' glow
Where I can hold you tight every mornin', noon and night
`Cos at last I'm first with you

And though we're over newly-wed as spooners go
Way out in some suburban honeymooners' glow
Where I can hold you tight every mornin', noon and night
`Cos at last I'm first with you

At last I'm first
I'm first at last
At last I'm first with you

Does It Really Happen?
Composer(s): Geoffrey Downes - Trevor Horn - Steve Howe - Chris Squire - Alan White
Performer(s): Yes



That's what you say
Does it really happen to you
Does that explain
This is the season for this display
To take a look
In time to move together
Time is the measure before it's begun
Slips away like running water
Live for the pleasure, live by the gun
Heritage for son and daughter
Down to the slaughter up for the fun
Up for anything
Could this be true
Does it ever happen to you
And can you prove
That wheels go 'round in reason
You take a step
In time
To move together
Time is the measure before it's begun
Slips away like running water
Live for the pleasure, live by the gun
Heritage for son and daughter
Down to the slaughter up for the fun
Up for anything
You walk, the way
You take, the path
To be, assured
You make, a graph
The scale, you use
Is all, on black
Be brave, the weight
Will make, the heat
There is, no way
To take-it back
Time is the measure before it's begun
Slips away like running water
Live for the pleasure, live by the gun
Heritage for son and daughter
Down to the slaughter up for the fun
Up for anything

You're in my arms where you should be

Mine to be living for

Kiss me and say you always will stay
For come what may

And all my lonely days are past
Mine to hold, mine to love
Here at last

Kiss me and say you always will stay
For come what may
My darling right or wrong
This is where you belong
Mine to hold, mine to love
Here at last

You ask me if I love you 
Do I? Don't I?
Same old question twenty times a day
I swear by stars above you...
Do I? Don't I?
You're not convinced?

Does an elephant love peanuts? 
Does he?

Does an ostrich love to stand while
His head's down in a sandpile?
Does a hotdog love a roll?
Does a bumblebee love honey? 
Does he?
Does an oyster love a stew?
When it comes to table manners
Does a monkey love bananas?
If he does, then, baby, I love you

Does he?
Does a squirrel love a nut?
Does a bold gorilla thrill a 
Shy romantic miss gorilla?
Does a hobo love a mutt?
Does a tomcat love a back fence? 
Does he?
Does a cow just love to moo?
Does a rooster's cock-a-doodle
Make a hen go off her noodle?
If he does, then baby, I love you

Do mosquitos love a fat man? 
Do they?
Does a piggy love to squeal?
Does a goose love to meander
When she's found a proper gander?
Has an eel got sex appeal?
Does a big giraffe love necking? 
Does he?
Does a dove just love to coo?
Does a herring feel quite tickled
Just as soon as he gets pickled?
If he does, then baby, I love you!

At last my love has come along
My lonely days are over
And life is like a song

Ohh yeah yeah
At last
The skies above are blue
My heart was wrapped up in clover
The night I looked at you

I found a dream, that I could speak to
A dream that I can call my own
I found a thrill to press my cheek to
A thrill that I have never known

Ohh yeah yeah

You smile, you smile
Oh and then the spell was cast
And here we are in heaven
For you are mine at last

I found a dream, that I could speak to
A dream that I can call my own
I found a thrill to press my cheek to
A thrill that I have never known

Ohh yeah yeah

You smile, you smile
Oh and then the spell was cast
And here we are in heaven
For you are mine at last

At last... at last

Doe Iets

Performer(s): Margriet de Groot & Richard Prince



Freddy:
Jij bent een roos, die staat te geuren
vol van kleuren
ongerept en pril...
Jij bent het fluiten van een merel
En op de wereld is geen mooier...
Eliza:
Stil!
Stil! Stil! Stil! Wees in Godsnaam stil!
Ik hoor aldoor maar woorden
van hem en van jou!
Begrijp je dan niets van een vrouw?
Altijd maar weer
bloemen in knop
Ach, hou toch op!
Doe iets!
Altijd opnieuw
een merel die fluit
Ach! Schei toch uit!
Doe iets!
Fluiten soms de merels zo maar midden in de nacht?
Je hebt veel te lang met alles gewacht
Al dat mooie praten is zo vrees'lijk ouderwets
Er is geen tijd voor geklets!
Is dan je mond
alleen voor de show?
Sta daar niet zo!
Doe iets! Doe iets!
Denk nou maar niet, dat je me ooit
met praten en zingen ontdooit
nu of nooit!
Altijd die lach
altijd dat lied!
Wil je dan niet?
Doe iets!
Zet nou niet weer
zo'n zonnig gezicht
En geen gedicht!!
Doe iets!
Heb je dan geen lippen die verlangen naar een kus?
We zijn nu alleen, wat aarzel je dus?
Mag ik soms es weten, wat je eig'lijk van me wil!
Stil, of ik geef nog een gil!
Zeg niet hoeveel
zeg niet waarom!
Kijk niet zo dom!
Doe iets! Doe iets!
Wacht niet te lang
Straks is opeens m'n voorhoofd in rimpels geplooid
Nu of nooit!

Stop And Smell The Roses

and multiple other artists



Hey Mister
Where you going in such a hurry
Don't you think it's time you realized
There's a whole lot more to life than work and worry
The sweetest things in life are free
And there right before your eyes

You got to Stop and Smell the roses
You've got to count your many blessings everyday
You're gonna find your way to heaven is a rough and rocky road
If you don't Stop and Smell the roses along the way

Before you went to work this morning in the city
Did you spent some time with your family
Did you kiss your wife and tell her that she's pretty
Did you take your children to your breast and love them tenderly

You got to Stop and Smell the roses
You've got to count your many blessings everyday
You're gonna find your way to heaven is a rough and rocky road
If you don't Stop and Smell the roses along the way

Did you ever take a walk through the forest
Stop and dream a while among the trees
Well you can look up through the leaves right straight to heaven
You can almost hear the voice of God
In each any every breeze

You got to Stop and Smell the Roses
You've got to count your many blessings everyday
You're gonna find your way to heaven is a rough and rocky road
If you don't Stop and Smell the Roses along the way

You got to Stop and Smell the roses
You've got to count your many blessings everyday
You're gonna find your way to heaven is a rough and rocky road
If you don't Stop and Smell the roses along the way

Hello?
Hiya honey
It's me I want to see the doctor today
"Cos ever since you've been gone
I've had a pain deep down inside
He said there's nothing really wrong with me
I'm just missing my man, so honey
Please come on home as soon as you can

Doctor's orders say there's only one thing for me
Nothing he can do 'cos only you can cure me
Says in my condition love's the best physician
He prescribed a potion full of warm emotion every day
A lovin' spoonful to be taken
It's the only way to stop this empty 
Heart of mine from breakin
Won't get better till you're back again he told me
Doctor's orders need your loving arms to hold me
Darling now I know there ain't no doubt about it
I'm so hooked on your love I can't live without it
You're away but please don't treat me like a stranger
Doctor's orders say one kiss from you and I am out of danger
Please say you understand how I feel honey
I know you've got a lot of things on your mind
Oh but I'm missing you so bad
Please oh please come on home

Doctor's orders say there's only one thing for me
Nothing he can do 'cos only you can cure me
Says in my condition love's the best physician
He prescribed a potion full of warm emotion 
Won't get better till you're back again he told me

At A Perfume Counter
Composer(s): Joe Burke - Edgar Leslie
Performer(s): The Dorsey Brothers



Delightful was the day
In gay Paris
I gave my heart away
Oui, oui, Chérie
At a perfume counter
On the Rue de la Paix

The flowers set an air
In gay Paris
Encouraged me to care
Oui, oui, Chérie
At a perfume counter
On the Rue de la Paix

The conversation was blended
With romance in May
But your vacation soon ended
And you went away

If you remember this
Come back to me
And say it with a kiss
Oui, oui, Chérie
At a perfume counter
On the Rue de la Paix

Doctor, Lawyer, Indian Chief
Composer(s): Hoagy Carmichael - Paul Francis Webster
Performer(s): Betty Hutton



There's a doctor livin' in your town
There's a lawyer and an Indian, too
And neither doctor, lawyer nor Injun chief
Could love you any more than I do

There's a barrel of fish in the ocean
There's a lot of little birds in the blue
And 'Neither fish nor fowl" says the wise old owl
Could love you any more than I do

No! No! No! it couldn't be true
That anyone else could love you like I do
I'm gonna warn all the dead-eyed dicks
That you're the chick with the slickest tricks
And every tick of my ticker ticks for you, follow through

Tell the doc to stick to his practice
Tell the lawyer to settle his case
Send the Injun chief and his tommy-hawk
Back to little Rain-In-the-Face

'Cause you
Know! Know! Know! it couldn't be true
That anyone else could love you like I do

(No! No! No! it couldn't be true)
(That anyone else could love you like I do)
And, confidentially, I confess
I sent a note to the local press
That I'll be changin' my home address for you, follow through

Tell the doc to stick to his practice
Tell the lawyer to settle his case
Send the Injun chief and his tommy-hawk
Back to little Rain-In-the-Face

'Cause you
Know! Know! Know! it couldn't be true
That anyone else could love you like I do

No! No! No! it couldn't be true
That anyone else could love you like I do
I'm gonna send a hot communeek
To warn the boys down at Cripple Creek
That every dimple on your dimpled cheek is mine, so to speak

Tell the (doc!) to stick to his practice
Tell the (lawyer!) to settle his case
Send the (Injun chief!) and his tommy-hawk
Back to little Rain-In-the-Face (woo-woo-woo, woo-woo-woo)

'Cause you
Know! Know! Know! it couldn't be true
That anyone else could love you like I do
(Like I do)
(Like I do)
(Like I do)
Like I do!

At A Georgia Camp Meeting
Composer(s): Kerry Mills
Performer(s): John Philip Sousa
and multiple other artists



A camp meeting took place, by the colored race; way down in Georgia
There were folks large and small, lanky, lean, fat and tall, at this great Georgia camp meeting
When church was out, how the "sisters" did shout, they were so happy
But the young folks were tired and wished to be inspired, and hired a big brass band

When the big brass band began to play pretty music so gay, hats were thrown away
Thought them foolish people their necks would break
When they quit their laughing and talking and went to walking for a big choc'late cake

The old "sisters" raised sand, when they first heard the band; way down in Georgia
The preacher did glare and the deacons did stare, at the young people prancing
The band played so sweet that nobody could eat, 'twas so entrancing
So the church folks agreed it was not a sinful deed, and they joined in with the rest

Doctor! Doctor!
Composer(s): Tom Bailey - Alannah Currie - Joe Leeway
Performer(s): Thompson Twins; The Blood Brothers



I saw you there, just standing there
And I thought I was only dreaming yeah
I kissed you then, then once again
You said you would come and dance with me
Dance with me across the sea
And we could feel the motion of a thousand dreams

Oh, Doctor, doctor, can't you see I'm burning, burning
Oh, Doctor, doctor, is this love I'm feeling?

Ships at night give such delight
We all leave before the morning light
Please don't go no please don't go
Cause I don't want to stay here on my own

Oh, Doctor, doctor, can't you see I'm burning, burning
Oh, Doctor, doctor, is this love I'm feeling?

Oh, Doctor, doctor, can't you see I'm burning, burning
Oh, Doctor, doctor, is this love I'm feeling?

Fever breathe your love on me (breathe your love)
Take away my name (take away)
Fever lay your hands on me (breathe your love)
Never be the same

Oh, Doctor, doctor, can't you see I'm burning, burning
Oh, Doctor, doctor, is this love I'm feeling?

Oh, Doctor, doctor, can't you see I'm burning, burning
Oh, Doctor, doctor, is this love I'm feeling?

Come with me and make believe
We can travel to eternity

A fight between the blue you once knew
Floating down, the sound resounds
Around the icy waters underground
Jupiter and Saturn, Oberon, Miranda and Titania

Blinding signs flap

Doctor, there's something wrong with me 
My health is not all that it used to be 
My heart is out of beat, I got chokers on my feet 
My eyesight's getting dimmer, I can't see 

Doctor thanks for seeing me today, I'm glad
I've got every sickness there is to be had 
I had whooping cough last month 
And today I've got the mumps 
And tomorrow I'll catch chicken pox as well 

Doctor doctor doctor make me well 
I've not got long to go now I can tell 
Doctor doctor doctor make me well 
I've not got long to go I can tell 
I've not got long to go I can tell 

Those pills I took have no effect at all 
Just the other day I had a nasty fall 
And I think I broke my jaw when it hit the kitchen floor 
And I'm shrinking last week I was five foot four 

I've been getting shivers lately, is it flu? 
I know the bug is going round, what can I do? 
It's about to pick on me, I've still got the other three 
Do you think I caught smallpox I'd get flu? 

chorus

Do you think it's time that I made out my will? 
I'll leave everything to you to pay my bill 
Just how long is there to go 
Please tell me I want to know 
But on second thoughts don't tell me, I'm too ill
