With stocking face I bought a gun The plan was set the plan was done Looked at my watch and started for the door Now the food here ain't so good no more And they closed the package store
Love your mama, love your brother Love 'em till they run for cover Turn the light off, keep your shirt on Cry a jag on me
Oh Michael Oh Jesus you know I'm not to blame You know my reputation for playing a good clean game Oh Michael Oh Jesus I'll keep my promise when You turn that heartbeat over again
My poison's named you know my brand So please make mine a double, Sam Stir it up nice I'll eat it right here This highway runs from Paraguay And I've just come all the way
Love your mama, love your brother Love 'em till they run for cover Turn the light off, keep your shirt on Cry a jag on me
We warned the corpse of William Wright Not to cuss and drink all night Ticket in hand I saw him laid to rest But zombie see and zombie do He's here with me and you
Love your mama, love your brother Love 'em till they run for cover Turn the light off, keep your shirt on Cry a jag on me
I Wish I Knew Composer(s): Mack Gordon; Harry Warren Performer(s): Dick Haymes and multiple other artists
Is this the night I've waited, oh, so long for Is this my dream at last come true Are you the one my heart has saved its song for How can I tell, I wish I knew
I wish I knew someone like you could love me I wish I knew you place no one above me Did I mistake this for a real romance I wish I knew, but only you can answer
If you don't care, why let me hope and pray so Don't lead me on, if I'm a fool just say so Should I keep dreaming on or just forget you What shall I do, I wish I knew
If you don't care, why let me hope and pray so Don't lead me on, if I'm a fool just say so Should I keep dreaming on or just forget you What shall I do, I wish I knew
Koala Bear Composer(s): Collins; Johnny Devlin Performer(s): Johnny Devlin & The Devlins
I wanna kling to you like a baby koala bear When I hold you close, like you want me to Baby don't run away, like a scared emu Well, I wanna give you some lovin' anyplace, anywhere I don't wanna lose you, 'cause I really care I wanna kling to you like a baby koala bear
Can't you feel my heart when I'm close to you Well, it's hoppin' so fast, like a kangaroo Well, I wanna give you some lovin' anyplace, anywhere I don't wanna lose you, 'cause I really care I wanna kling to you like a baby koala bear
Well, I got you baby, I'll never let you go I don't wanna leave you, 'cause I love you so One thing baby that I wanna do I wanna kling to you like the koala bears do
Well, now that I told you, don't you laugh at me Like the kookaburras do, and the blue gum too Well, I wanna give you some lovin' anyplace, anywhere Don't you leave me baby, 'cause I really care I wanna kling to you like a baby koala bear I wanna kling to you like a baby koala bear I wanna kling to you like a baby koala bear
Kodachrome Composer(s): Paul Simon Performer(s): Paul Simon; Percy Faith; André Kostelanetz; Christiane Noll
When I think back On all the crap I learned in high school It's a wonder I can think at all And though my lack of education Hasn't hurt me none I can read the writing on the wall
Kodachrome They give us those nice bright colors They give us the greens of summers Makes you think all the world's a sunny day I got a Nikon camera I love to take a photograph So mama don't take my Kodachrome away
If you took all the girls I knew When I was single And brought them all together for one night I know they'd never match my sweet imagination Everything looks worse in black and white
Turn On Your Lovelight Composer(s): Joe Morton - Dan Aykroyd - John Goodman - J. Evan Bonifant
Performer(s): The Blues Brothers Band
Without a warning you broke my heart
You took it darling and you tore it apart
You left me sitting in the dark crying
You said your love light for me was dying
I'm begging you baby
Baby please
I'm begging you baby
Baby please
Turn on the light
Let it shine on me
Turn on your love light
Let it shine on me
Let it shine, shine, shine
Let it shine
Rowww!
I get a little lonely in the middle of the night
I need you darling to make things all right
Come on baby
Come on please
Come on baby
Baby please
Turn on the light
Let it shine on me
Turn on your love light
Let it shine on me
I said a little bit higher (A little bit higher)
A little bit higher (A little bit higher)
Just a little bit higher (A little bit higher)
A little bit higher (A little bit higher)
Come on baby
Come on please
I'm begging you baby
I'm down on my knees
Turn on the light (Turn on the light)
Let it shine on me (Let it shine on me)
Turn on your love light (Turn on your love light)
Let it shine on me (Let it shine on me)
I feel all right! (I feel all right!)
I feel all right! (I feel all right!)
I feel all right! (I feel all right!)
I feel all right!
Oh let it shine, shine, shine

I Wish I Could Shimmy Like My Sister Kate Composer(s): Armand J. Piron Performer(s): The Georgians and multiple other artists
I went to a dance with my sister Kate Everybody there thought she danced so great I realized a thing or two When I got wise to something new
When I looked at Kate, she was in a trance And then I knew it was in her dance All the boys are going wild Over sister Katie's style
Oh, I wish I could I shimmy like my sister Kate She shimmies like a jelly on a plate My mama wanted to know last night What makes the boys think Kate's so nice
Now all the boys in the neighborhood They know that she can shimmy and it's understood I know that I'm late, but I'll be up-to-date When I shimmy like my sister Kate I mean, when I shimmy like my sister Kate
Now I can shimmy like my sister Kate I know that I'm real late I think I'll do a real shimmy dance Dancing like my sister Kate Sweet papa, just like my sister Kate
Koeeoaddi There Composer(s): Robin Williamson Performer(s): The Incredible String Band
the natural cards revolve ever changing seeded elsewhere planted in the garden fair grow trees, grow trees
tongues of the sheer wind setting you foot where the sand is untrodden the ocean that only begins
listen a woman with a bulldozer built this house now carving away the mountain whose name is your childhood home we were trying to buy it buy it buy it someone was found killed there all bones bones dry bones
earth water fire and air met together in a garden fair put in a basket bound with skin if you answer this riddle you'll never begin
born in a house where the doors shut tight shadowy fingers on the curtains at night cherry tree blossom head high snow a busy main road where I wasn't to go I used to sit on the garden wall say hello to people going by so tall hallo to the postman's stubbly skin hallo to the baker's stubbly grin mrs thompson gave me a bear brigitte and some people lived upstairs
skating on happy valley pond various ministers and guards stood around the ice was nice hallo the invisible brethren and there was a tent you played cards with the soldiers in, don't worry we won't send anyone after you they screamed but me and licorice saw the last of them one misty twisty day across the mournful morning moor motoring away singing ladybird, ladybird what is your wish your wish is not granted unless it's a fish your wish is not granted unless it's a dish a fish on a dish is that what you wish
earth water fire and air met together in a garden fair put in a basket bound with skin if you answer this riddle you'll never begin
I Wish All My Children Were Babies Again Composer(s): Jack Baxley Performer(s): Gene Autry and multiple other artists
I wish all my children were babies again Playing around my knee Each tiny tot means a lot In my album of memories I wish I could tuck them in their little beds And hum them a lullaby strain I'd take ev'ry heartache and never complain If my children were babies again
I asked an old lady one day If all of her wishes came true Her eyes filled with tears as she turned back the years Her mem'ry quickly flew She said, "Here's the wish I'd make If I had only one to take"
I wish all my children were babies again Playing around my knee Each tiny tot means a lot In my album of memories I wish I could tuck them in their little beds And hum them a lullaby strain I'd take ev'ry heartache and never complain If my children were babies again
Aan de kant van de sloot daar stond eens een koe Aan de andere kant een paard Ze sloegen zo, te stampen hoor Naar de vliegen met hun staart
Maar die koe was verliefd op dat mooie paard Ze bloosde als hij keek Een rilling liep haar langs de rug Zij was geheel van streek
Toen die koe haar kop verloor Zongen de kikkertjes in koor
Koetje boe, koetje boe, koetje boe boe boe Vergeet het maar gerust Wist jij niet dat je buurman paard nooit bonte koeien kust Koetje boe, koetje boe, koetje boe boe boe Vergeet het alsjeblieft Jouw lieveling met die lange staart wordt nooit op jou verliefd
Al zou je willen, haha Al stond je te gillen Hij kijkt je met z'n rug niet aan Z'n merrie laat hem vast niet gaan Koetje boe, koetje boe, koetje boe boe boe Vergeet het alsjeblieft Jouw lieveling met die lange staart wordt nooit op jou verliefd
Maar geen tien meter verder daar stond een heer Z'n achternaam was stier Hij stikte haast van jaloezie En riep 'wat is dat hier'
Denk je dat je me zomaar bedriegen kunt Met onze buurman paard Voor straf leg ik jou, domme koe Drie knopen in je staart
En het paard keek er eens naar Ze zongen daarna met elkaar
Hé koetje boe, koetje boe, koetje boe boe boe Vergeet het maar gerust Wist jij niet dat je buurman paard nooit bonte koeien kust Koetje boe, koetje boe, koetje boe boe boe Vergeet het alsjeblieft Jouw lieveling met die lange staart wordt nooit op jou verliefd
Al zou je willen, haha Al stond je te gillen Hij kijkt je met z'n rug niet aan Z'n merrie laat hem vast niet gaan Koetje boe, koetje boe, koetje boe boe boe Vergeet het alsjeblieft Jouw lieveling met die lange staart wordt nooit op jou verliefd
I Wish Composer(s): Stevie Wonder First release by: Stevie Wonder - 1976 Covered by multiple other artists
Looking back on when I Was a little nappy headed boy Then my only worry Was for Christmas what would be my toy Even though we sometimes Would not get a thing We were happy with the Joy the day would bring
Sneaking out the back door To hang out with those hoodlum friends of mine Greeted at the back door With "boy thought I told you not to go outside" Tryin' your best to bring the Water to your eyes Thinkin' it might stop her From woopin' your behind
I wish those days could come back once more Why did those days ev-er have to go I wish those days could come back once more Why did those days ev-er have to go Cause I love them so
Brother says he's tellin' 'Bout you playin' doctor with that girl Just don't tell I'll give you Anything you want in this whole wide world Mama gives you money for Sunday school You trade yours for candy after church is through
Smokin' cigarettes and writing something nasty on the wall (you nasty boy) Teacher sends you to the principal's office down the wall You grow up and learn that kinda thing ain't right But while you were doin'it-it sure felt outta sight
I wish those days could come back once more Why did those days ev-er have to go I wish those days could come back once more Why did those days ev-er have to go
Turn on that red-hot heat And burn your blues away Come on and get under the spell Turn on that red-hot heat Let's take a holiday Wake up and get out of your shell
If you find livin' full of trouble ahead Who cares if who knows Step out and give in Paint the town till it's red Don't be a blue nose
Turn on that red-hot heat And burn your blues away Nothing will ever go wrong If you beat your feet and Put some heat in a song
Remember Me Composer(s): Jose Bradley Performer(s): Rita Williams
Remember me, remember me Keep this little thought within your memory Though were far apart we see the same blue sky And each night we see the same old moon go by Remember me, remember me I shall always love you ever tenderly Tell me youre the same and until we meet again Always remember me
Remember me, remember me I shall always love you ever tenderly Tell me youre the same and until we meet again Always remember me

When the Moon is shining yellow And a girl is with her fellow Both are getting nice and mellow It's a surprise to find
If the Moon-Man should discover Sweethearts meeting under cover Can you blame that girl and lover If they say "Turn off that light"
Turn off your light, Mr. Moon-Man Go and hide your face behind the clouds Can't you see that couples wanna spoon, Man Two is company and three's a crowd
When each little lad and lady Find a spot so nice and shady That's your cue to say "Goodnight, Goodnight" And if they wanna spoon Listen Mr. Moon Be a sport and turn off your light
All the lads and little misses Who are fond of hugs and kisses Must remember half of bliss Is found on any cloudy night
Nighttime is the time for spooning Serenades and lovers crooning Preliminary honeymooning Calls for darkness, not for light
Turn off your light, Mr. Moon-Man Go and hide your face behind the clouds Can't you see that couples wanna spoon, Man Two is company and three's a crowd
When each little lad and lady Find a spot so nice and shady That's your cue to say "Goodnight, Goodnight" And if they wanna spoon Listen Mr. Moon Be a sport and turn off your light
Turn off your light, Mr. Moon-Man Go and hide your face behind the clouds
Can't you see that couples wanna spoon, Man Two is company and three's a crowd
When each little lad and lady Find a spot so nice and shady That's your cue to say "Goodnight, Goodnight" And if they wanna spoon Now listen Mr. Moon Be a sport and turn off your light

If it takes forever I will wait for you For a thousand summers I will wait for you Till you're back beside me, till I'm holding you Till I hear you sigh here in my arms
Anywhere you wander, anywhere you go Every day remember how I love you so In your heart believe what in my heart I know That forevermore I will wait for you
The clock will tick away the hours one by one Then the time will come when all the waiting's done The time when you return and find me here and run Straight to my waiting arms
If it takes forever I will wait for you For a thousand summers I will wait for you Till you're here beside me, till I'm touching you And forevermore sharing your love
