Lover Man (Oh, Where Can You Be?) Composer(s): James Edward Davis - Roger J. Ramirez - James Sherman First recording/First release by: Billie Holiday - 1944/1945 Covered by multiple other artists
I don't know why, but I'm feeling so sad I long to try something I've never had Never had no kissin', oh, what I've been missin' Lover man, oh, where can you be
The night is cold and I'm so all alone I'd give my soul just to call you my own Got a moon above me, but there's no one to love me Lover man, oh, where can you be
I've heard it said That the thrill of romance can be Like a heavenly dream I go to bed with a prayer That you'll make love to me Strange as it seems
Someday we'll meet And you'll dry all my tears Then whisper sweet little things in my ears Huggin' and a-kissin' Oh, what I've been missin' Lover man oh where can you be
Oh, what I've been missin' Lover man, oh, where can you be

Lover doll, oh lover doll
Lover doll, lover doll
You're the cutest lover doll
That I ever did ever see
Let me tell you lover doll
You were meant, just meant for me
On the first time that I saw you
How I fell for your cuddly charms
Lover doll I'm crazy for you
Let me rock you in my arms
I'm so glad I found you
Never thought dollies came full grown
I'm gonna tie a ribbon around you
Wrap you up and take you home
I would never treat you badly
Like a cast away broken toy
Lover doll I love you madly
Let me be your lover boy
I'm so glad I found you

Lover Boy Composer(s): Rick Davies - Roger Hodgson Performer(s): Supertramp
I'll tell you from the start He's gonna break your heart You can't stop the lover boy You can't stop the lover boy
He's gonna tell you lies But you won't realize Because you can't stop the lover boy You can't stop the lover boy
He's got a thing in his head It's from a book he's read It's got a funny title, It tells you how to be vital He took a lot of time Over every line Because it's guaranteed To satisfy
He's gonna knock 'em dead The boy's got that book read You can't stop the lover boy You can't stop the lover boy
Right from the clothes he wears The way he combs his hair You can't stop him now, because he knows all the tricks He used to have a problem but he got it fixed He took a small apartment Above a shoe department And he could see from his window All the lights in the street glow There's a club on the corner And tonight he will go there To find a new affair So all you ladies beware
He's got to have a good time in the city He's got to have a good time every night He's gonna love 'em and leave 'em, cheat and deceive 'em He's gonna show 'em who's wrong and who's right

When its pouring rain and people complain And things arent worth the shucks Dont you yell, just say Well Lovely weather for ducks
When its freezing snow, bout zero or so And the icy sidewalk glares Dont get cold feet, just repeat Lovely weather for bears
Though all your cares seem double Theres good in every bad So sneer at Old Man Trouble And hell go away mad
When your shoelace breaks And your toothache aches And you need a few more bucks Dont you pout, just sing out Heavenly weather for what could be better for Lovely weather for ducks
Though all your cares seem double Theres good in every bad So sneer at Old Man Trouble And hell go away mad
When your shoelace breaks And your toothache aches And you need a few more bucks Dont you pout, just sing out Heavenly weather for what could be better for Lovely weather for ducks
Heavenly weather for what could be better for Lovely weather for ducks

You're lovely to look at It's thrilling to hold you terribly tight For we're together, the moon is new And oh, it's lovely to look at you tonight!
(he) What appeals to me Is just your charm and dignity Not what you wear But just an air, of great repose You are quite perfect from your head down to your toes Both night and day I am moved to say
Lovely to look at Delightful to know and heaven to kiss A combination like this Is quite my most impossible scheme come true Imagine finding a dream like you!

Little Pony Composer(s): Jon Hendricks - Neal Hefti Performer(s): The Pointer Sisters and multiple other artists
I said hurry up, dig a little pony I know Say that so I said hurry up, dig a little pony, we'll blow Ride, ride, ride
He's blowin' pretty, what a musical treat Say that so Look at him, blowin' steady, what a wonderful beat Ride, ride, ride
Hurry up, hurry up Do me the ditty up Hurry up, hurry up Go wake the city up Hurry up, hurry up Once more I wanna repeat
People pass word He's the last word That's the mass word They don't dig 'til he's big, then they wig
Wanna say a lot about a little pony Wanna celebrate the night the pony booted up the big beat And by the time he got to cookin' everybody started lookin'
Well I can't stop telling about what he was doin' To blow as though his heart was in it every minute Singin' a pretty kind of sound, really givin' every pound Neve acting like the greatest cat around
Every body dug him and he had 'em really drinking Like the did a lot of swiggin' from a gallon jug And then he cooled a while, sentimental style
Later on a little while he had 'em swinging, stompin' the floor Little pony went a ridin', illustratin' what a horn was for Had 'em comin' back for more, when they added up the score It was joy galore!
Been down east, did up the west Come to find, this little pony's the best Blow your horn, do up the sound Sing your song, you're really puttin' it down
Well, a little bit of listenin' with a passable ear We'll get an awful lot of messages anywhere
Ride, pony ride, Be my wailing guide Keep on singin', I dig, you're bringin' the word Go pony, go, put me in the know Dig me wiggin', that way, you're diggin' I heard
If anybody ever made it out to the coast They can tell ya what I'm talkin' about Little pony wailin' on the alto saxophone Holler giddyup and gallop
Ball, pony, ball, don't be slow at all Don't bashful, be like you're blowing for me
Gotta get along speedily Got to get along, and do the coda It's really the end, you see Well thanks a lot, but pretty baby I must quit this scene If you know what I mean
Don't be quittin', just when you're hittin' the peak Get a record that'll play all week Could be good bebop, could be!

The joys of love The joys of love Are but a moment strong The pain of love endures A whole life long
His eyes kissed mine I saw the love in them shine A rainbow brightened my window Such love divine
And now he's gone Like a dream that melts with the dawn His memory stays locked in my heartstrings He was ne'er mine

You'd rather have wine than gin Only the finest by your skin Always running after Time - catching You're fancy with rhyme Shining on the front page again
Hot on the presses today - little queen Making your passion play - little queen Nobody knows your melancholy mind Little queen
Away from the sellers, the papers said Your crown was tight and heavy on your head Still you danced and you sang - all night The telephone rang Music kept on playing from your pen
Hot on the presses today - little queen Making your passion play - little queen Nobody knows your melancholy mind Little queen
Raining Raining- he knows your Soul ain't free Raining Raining- he feels you little queen
Slipping away with your gypsy band Hot on your music and playing a winning hand He was standing in the line, thinking how you Moved his mind Feeling like he held you in his hand

Toutes Les Mêmes ((Adapted from: Love Is All (by Roger Glover) - 1974)) Composer(s): Roger Glover - Eddie Hardin - Vline Buggy - Claude Carrère Performer(s): Sacha Distel - 1976
Plus légères et frêles que les gazelles Plus gracieuses qu'un vol de papillon Elles font le beau temps comme les coccinelles Et roucoulent comme les pigeons Elles sont bavardes et belles comme les perruches Prévoyantes aussi comme les fourmis Nous laissent tomber comme des ours en peluche Pour suivre un bel oiseau de nuit
Toutes les mêmes, toutes les mêmes Et pourtant on ne peut pas s'en passer Toutes les mêmes oui mais on les aime et rien ne peut les remplacer
Pour elles nous sommes toujours des phénomènes Plus maladroits que des éléphants Dans un magasin de porcelaine, quand on les trompe en passant
Toutes les mêmes, toutes les mêmes Et pourtant on ne peut pas s'en passer Toutes les mêmes oui mais on les aime et rien ne peut les remplacer
Plus bohèmes encore que les cigales, elles adorent danser la nuit Mais ces petites chattes ont pour elle une morale Trouver le matou de leur vie
Toutes les mêmes, toutes les mêmes Et pourtant on ne peut pas s'en passer Toutes les mêmes, elles sont toutes les mêmes Et pourtant on ne peut pas s'en passer
Little Queenie ((Dutch Version: Kleine Dinie (by Normaal) - 1982)) Composer(s): Chuck Berry First release by: Chuck Berry - 1959 Covered by multiple other artists
I got lumps in my throat When I saw her comin' down the aisle I got the wiggles in my knees When she looked at me and sweetly smiled
There she is again Standin' over by the record machine Lookin' like a model On the cover of a magazine She's too cute To be a minute over seventeen
Meanwhile I's thinkin'...
She's in the mood No need'n break it I got a chance I oughta take it If she'll dance We can make it C'mon Queenie, Let's shake it
Go, go, go, Little Queenie Go, go, go, Little Queenie Go, go, go, Little Queenie
Tell me who's the queen Standin' over by the record machine Lookin' like a model On the cover of a magazine She's too cute To be a minute over seventeen
Meanwhile, I was still thinkin'...
If it's a slow song We'll omit it If it's a rocker, that'll get it And if it's good, she'll admit it C'mon queenie, let's get with it
Go, go, go, Little Queenie Go, go, go, Little Queenie Go, go, go, Little Queenie
Love Is All Composer(s): Barry Mason - Les Reed Performer(s): Malcolm Roberts
Yesterday, I knew the games to play I thought I knew the way life was meant to be But now there's you My foolish games are through Now at last I have found Just what makes this old world turn around
Love is all I have to give Love is all as long as I shall live Take it all And I'll always be there when you call my name I know now that love is all
Every night I long to hold you tight Until the morning light Shines into your eyes, love me now We'll get along somehow Won't you please take my hand And together forever we'll stand
Love is all I have to give Love is all as long as I shall live Take it all And I'll always be there when you call my name I know now that love is all
