    The Time Has Come
    Composer(s): Les Vandyke
    Performer(s): Adam Faith



    The time has come for me to hang my head in shame
    The time has come for me to say that I'm to blame
    The time has come for love's return but it won't be the same
    Oh please believe me I won't make the same mistakes again

    The time has come to end this very sad affair
    The time has come for you and I once more to share a summers kiss
    But love's return won't ever be the same
    Oh please believe me I won't make the same mistakes again

    No more sorrows, no more cheating
    Our tomorrows won't be repeating the past

    So here am I to ask if you can still forgive
    If you can love, the time has come for love to live
    With no regrets, but take my word that love won't be the same
    Oh please believe me I won't make the same mistakes again

    Oh please believe me I won't make the same mistakes again

    Composer(s): Johnny Mercer; Harold Arlen
    Originally performed by: Ruby Hill & Harold Nicholas
    Covered by various other artists



    I'm gonna love you like nobody's loved you
    Come rain or come shine
    High as a mountain and deep as a river
    Come rain or come shine
    I guess when you met me
    It was just one of those things
    But don't ever bet me
    "Cause I'm gonna be true if you let me
    You're gonna love me like nobody's loved me
    Come rain or come shine
    Happy together, unhappy together
    And won't it be fine
    Days may be cloudy or sunny
    We're in or we're out of the money
    But I'm with you always
    I'm with you rain or shine

    Road To Rio
    Composer(s): Al Blake
    Performer(s): Canned Heat



    Well, I was livin' on the road
    Couldn't get a decent meal
    My baby, she gave me a dirty deal
    Now I'm hitchhikin' on the road to Rio
    Tryin' to flag a ride from an automobile

    Won't somebody stop and let me ride?
    Why don't you stop and let me ride?
    Won't somebody let me ride?
    I'm movin' on down the line

    I'm standing on the road right by the side
    Nobody knows how many tears I've cried
    I've even thought about suicide
    I guess it must be time to take a ride

    Won't somebody stop and let me ride?
    Why don't you stop and let me ride?
    Won't somebody let me ride?
    I'm movin' on down the line

    Standin' on the road right by the side
    Watchin' all the cars keep passin' by
    The sun's goin' down, but I don't mind
    I'm gonna catch a ride if it takes all night

    Won't somebody stop and let me ride?
    Why don't you stop and let me ride?
    Won't somebody let me ride?
    I'm movin' on down the line

    Now it was 2:00 am and I was high and dry
    This beautiful chick gave me the eye
    She opened the door and I slid by her side
    And we headed on down the line

    I'm so glad she stopped and let me ride
    Somebody finally let me ride
    I'm so glad she stopped and let me ride
    We're gonna boogie on down the line

    Rio
    One hundred miles ahead
    We're gonna moving on down the line

    Composer(s): Vincent A. Corso - Clyde Otis
    Performer(s): Brook Benton



    Knowing you stand by me through good and bad
    Makes all the difference in my life
    And day by day, sweetheart, I find
    These are the ties that bind

    The little things you do that please me so
    Aww, the way you always understand
    When simple joys bring peace of mind
    These are the ties that bind

    You're all I need to see me through
    Can I say more than this, my love?
    I live just for your kiss, my love
    I live just for your kiss, my love

    Forever and a day, my love will live
    Mmm, the flame of love will never die
    So heart and soul please say you're mine
    Held by the ties that bind

    (These are the ties that bind)

    Come prima tu me donnes
    Tant de joie
    Que personne ne m'en donne
    Comme toi
    C'est ta bouche qui m'apporte
    Ma joie de vivre
    Et ma chance c'est de vivre
    Rien que pour toi
    Que m'importe si tu m'aimes
    Moins que moi
    Moi je t'aime comme on n'aime
    Qu'une fois
    Et je reste prisonnière
    Prisonnière de tes bras
    Come prima tu me donnes
    Tant de joie!

    Tu trouves mon chéri quand on est ensemble
    Que rien ne semble m'intéresser
    Comment prêter aux gens la moindre importance
    Quand je ne pense qu'à t'embrasser...

    Come prima tu me donnes
    Tant de joie
    Que personne ne m'en donne
    Comme toi
    C'est ta bouche qui m'apporte
    Ma joie de vivre
    Et ma chance c'est de vivre
    Rien que pour toi
    Come prima tu me donnes
    Tant d'amour
    Que j'espère te le rendre
    Quand heureuse dans tes bras
    Je me donne je me donne
    Toute à toi!
    Je me donne je me donne
    Toute à toi!

    Road To Morocco
    ((aka (We're Off On The) Road To Morocco))
    Composer(s): Johnny Burke; Jimmy Van Heusen
    Performer(s): Bing Crosby;
    and various other artists



    We're off on the road to Morocco
    This camel is tough on the spine (hit me with a band-aid, Dad)
    Where they're goin', why we're goin', how can we be sure
    I'll lay you eight to five that we'll meet Dorothy Lamour (yeah, get in line)

    Off on the road to Morocco
    Hang on till the end of the line (I like your jockey. Quiet)
    I hear this country's where they do the dance of the seven veils
    We'd tell you more (uh-ah) but we would have the censor on our tails (good boy)

    We certainly do get around
    Like Webster's Dictionary we're Morocco bound

    We're off on the road to Morocco
    Well look out, well clear the way, 'cause here we come
    Stand by for a concussion
    The men eat fire, sleep on nails and saw their wives in half
    It seems to me there should be easier ways to get a laugh
    (shall I slip on my big shoes?)

    Off on the road to Morocco
    Hooray! Well blow a horn, everybody duck
    Yeah. it's a green light, come on boys

    We may run into villains but we're not afraid to roam
    Because we read the story and we end up safe at home (yeah)
    Certainly do get around
    Like Webster's Dictionary we're Morocco bound

    We certainly do get around
    Like a complete set of Shakespeare that you get
    in the corner drugstore for a dollar ninety-eight
    We're Morocco bound

    Or, like a volume of Omar Khayyam that you buy in the
    department store at Christmas time for your cousin Julia
    We're Morocco bound
    (we could be arrested)

    The tide is high but I'm holding on
    I'm gonna be your number one
    I'm not the kind of girl
    Who gives up just like that

    That tease and wound me bad

    Number one, number one

    Every girl wants you to be her man
    But I'll wait my dear 'til it's my turn
    I'm not the kind of girl

    Road Hog
    Composer(s): John D. Loudermilk
    Performer(s): John D. Loudermilk



    Have you ever been driving down the road
    And come up on a fella who was just poking along
    Straddlin' the white line
    And when you try to pass him he'd speed up
    Ha ha, well around here we call this fella a Road Hog
    This is a story about him and his eventual end

    Well me and my buddy went a ridin' last night
    Me and my buddy went a ridin' last night
    We topped a hill and we saw his lights
    Road Hog beep beep do do do do
    Road Hog beep beep do do do do
    When we saw him we almost died
    When we saw him we almost died
    He was a comin' at us on our side
    Road Hog beep beep do do do do
    Road Hog beep beep do do do do
    My buddy said that fella sure come mighty near
    Probably some learner who don't know how to steer
    And then I saw his lights a comin' up in my mirror
    Road Hog beep beep do do do do
    Road Hog beep beep do do do do
    He passed us a goin' bout a hundred I guess
    He passed us a goin' bout a hundred I guess
    And then he slowed down to twenty or less
    Road Hog beep beep do do do do
    Road Hog beep beep do do do do
    I tooted my horn and I started to pass
    I blinked my lights and I started to pass
    And then that Road Hog stepped on the gas
    Road Hog beep beep do do do do
    Road Hog beep beep do do do do
    You'd better get him up some money for bail
    You'd better get him up some money for bail
    Cause tomorrow morning he will be in jail
    Road Hog beep beep do do do do
    Road Hog beep beep do do do do
    The boys will have him in the morning behind bars
    The boys will have him in the morning behind bars
    Cause I'm the County Sheriff in my unmarked car ha ha ha
    Road Hog beep beep do do do do
    Road Hog beep beep do do do do

    The thrill is gone

    The thrill is gone

    The thrill is gone away from me
    Although I'll still live on
    But so lonely I'll be

    It's gone away for good
    Oh, the thrill is gone baby
    Baby its gone away for good
    Someday I know I'll be over it all baby
    Just like I know a man should

    You know I'm free, free now baby
    I'm free from your spell
    I'm free, free now
    I'm free from your spell
    And now that it's over
    All I can do is wish you well

    We're three caballeros
    Three gay caballeros
    They say we are birds of a feather
    We're happy amigos
    No matter where he goes
    The one, two, and three goes
    We're always together

    We're three happy chappies
    With snappy serapes
    You'll find us beneath our sombreros
    We're brave and we'll say so
    We're bright as a peso
    Who says so? We say so!
    The three caballeros

    Ohhhh!
    We have the stars to guide us
    Guitars here beside us
    To play as we go
    We sing and we samba
    We shout 'aye caramba'!
    What means aye caramba?
    Oh yes, I don't know

    Ohhhh!
    Through fair or stormy weather
    We stand close together
    Like books on the shelf
    And pals though we may be
    When some latin baby
    Says yes, no, or maybe
    Each man is for himself!

    Ohhhh!
    We have the stars to guide us
    Guitars here beside us
    To play as we go
    We sing and we samba
    We shout 'aye caramba'!
    What means aye caramba?
    Oh yes, it means, I don't know

    Coz it aint right to wanna keep on dancing
    There won't be any time left for romancing

    Come outside, come outside
    There's a lovely moon out there
    Come outside, come outside
    While we got time to spare

    Little doll it seems ages since we kissed (Little doll)

    There's a lovely moon out there (Wendy: it's cold out side)

    Come outside (Wendy: you do keep on)
    While we got time to spare (Wendy: I want another twist)

    Now I went and promised your old man
    That we'd be home about half past ten
    Seems we've got just one more jive
    Then we'll be starting home again

    Come outside,(Wendy: get lost)
    Come outside (Wendy: go and ask Lil)
    There's a lovely moon out there (Wendy: you can go off people)
    Come outside, (Wendy: give over)

    Little doll I'm agetting kinda mad (Little doll)
    Coz it aint right to wanna keep on dancing
    There won't be any time left for romancing

    Come outside,(Wendy: lay off)
    Come outside (Wendy: shove it)
    There's a lovely moon out there (Wendy: you are a one)
    Come outside,(Wendy: all right)
    Come outside (Wendy: not for too long)
    While we got time for a bit of slap and tickle
    (Wendy: I'll slap and tickle you in a minute)
    Oh come out for a bit of .....

    River, Stay 'Way From My Door
    Composer(s): Harry Woods; Mort Dixon
    Performer(s): Frank Sinatra;
    and various other artists



    You keep goin' your way - I'll keep goin' my way
    (I'll keep goin' my way, you keep rollin' your way)
    River, stay 'way from the door
    I just got (me) a cabin - you don't need my (you'll never need that) cabin
    River, stay 'way from the door

    Don't (you) come up any higher - I'm so all alone
    Leave the bed and the fire - that is all I own (and you can have that phone)

    I ain't breakin' your heart - don't (you) start breakin' my heart
    River, stay 'way from the door

    (Stay 'way, get 'way, roll 'way, stay 'way)
    (You dirty, old, muddy river, you)
    (River, stay 'way from the door)

    The Three B's
    Composer(s): Hugh Martin - Ralph Blane
    Performer(s): June Allyson, Victoria Schools & Nancy Walker
    and multiple other artists



    Gloria:
    I never wanna hear Johann Sebastian Bach

    June:
    And I don't wanna listen to Ludwig Beethoven

    Nancy:
    And I don't give a hoot for ol' Johannes Brahms

    All:
    The B's we want are these, the B's we want are these

    June:
    They're the barrelhouse, the boogie-woogie

    Gloria:
    And the blues

    All:
    Yes, the barrelhouse, the boogie-woogie and the blues!

    June:
    Oh, the barrelhouse makes you want to carouse

    Nancy:
    Every boogie beat will raise your heat

    Gloria:
    When they start to play the blues

    All:
    You'll never choose to lose the blues

    Gloria:
    Oh, the blues will really get you

    June:
    And the barrelhouse is bound to upset you

    Nancy:
    And the boogie-woogie beat will drive you straight to distraction
    Hey, let's go professor, get a solid reaction!
    From a barrelhouse, the boog-boog-boog-boog boogie and the blues

    All:
    Yes, the barrelhouse, yeah, the boogie-woogie and the blues

    All:
    When a Dixieland band gets up on the stand
    You'll hear the trombones slide and start to ride
    So make 'em play those dirty
    Dirty hurdy-gurdy barrelhouse, boogie and blues
    The barrelhouse, boogie and blues
    The barrelhouse, the boogie-woogie and the blues
    We're up a tree now, we don't know which to choose
    The barrelhouse, the boogie-woogie or the blues

    Nancy:
    I love the boogie 'cos it tickles my spine
    I love the boogie 'cos it's fresh and it's fine
    Just like a cigarette with modern design
    That's why I love the boogie-woogie (Yes! Yes!)
    It seems to knock the wind right out of my chest
    It's so darn good it makes a fool of the rest
    Just goes to show you that the boogie's the best
    That's why I love the boogie-woogie (Yes! Yes!)
    It's right as rain, low as a thunder
    Light as a cloud, sweet as a cake
    It's got a kick like mountain liquor
    And it's as slick and hard to take as Veronica Lake
    It picks you up and then knocks you right down
    It makes you laugh and play and act like a clown
    No other music has the right to the crown
    'Cos there's nothing that will raise your heat
    Like the boogie-woogie beat

    June:
    Don't mean the barrelhouse

    Nancy:
    Like the boogie-woogie beat

    Gloria:
    Don't mean the blues

    Nancy:
    I love the boogie-woogie beat!

    Gloria:
    I love the boogie too, but not when I'm feeling blue
    I get the blues in the mornin', the blues at night
    I even get the blues when I'm feelin' all right
    'Cos it sounds so good and it feels so good
    And it is so good, my best jazz music there is

    June:
    I love the blues as well, but not when I'm feeling swell
    When I'm feeling kind of chummy and I wanna join the scrummy
    I go barrelhouse, barrelhouse
    The atmosphere is squalid, but the band is really solid
    They play barrelhouse, barrelhouse, they really go to town
    The beat is steady as a rock there
    They play till five or six o'clock there
    You'll be mighty glad you found 'em
    It's great to be around 'em
    Oh they sock it, beat it, kill it
    The barrelhouse will make you hot on jazz

    All:
    It's the barrelhouse, the boogie-woogie and the blues
    That's the barrelhouse, the boogie-woogie and the blues
    Talkin' about those three B's
    Talkin' about those three B's
    Talkin' about those three B's
    One, two, three B's
    One, two, one-two-three B's

    The Thousandth And Tenth Day Of The Human Totem Pole
    Composer(s): Don Van Vliet
    Performer(s): Captain Beefheart & the Magic Band



    The thousandth and tenth day of the human totem pole
    The morning was distemper grey
    Of the thousandth and tenth day of the human totem pole
    The man at the bottom was smiling
    He had just finished his breakfast smiling
    It hadn't rained or manured for over two hours
    The man at the top was starving
    The pole was a horrible looking thing
    With all of those eyes and ears
    And waving hands for balance
    There was no way to get a copter in close
    So everybody was starving together
    The man at the top had long ago given up
    But didn't have nerve enough to climb down
    At night the pole would talk to itself and the chatter wasn't too good
    Obviously the pole didn't like itself, it wanted to walk!
    It was the summer and it was hot
    And balance wouldn't permit skinning to undergarments
    It was an integrated pole, it was taking on an reddish brown cast
    Exercise on the pole was isometric
    Kind of a flex and then balance
    Then the highest would roll together
    The ears wiggle, hands balance
    There was a gurgling and googling heard
    A tenth of the way up the pole
    Approaching was a small child
    With Statue of Liberty doll
