Composer(s): Billy Page
First release by: Dobie Gray - 1964
Covered by multiple other artists
I'm in with the "in" crowd
I go where the "in" crowd goes
I'm in with the "in" crowd
And I know what the "in" crowd knows
Any time of the year don't you hear (gotta have fun)
Dressin' fine makin' time
We breeze up and down the streets
We get respect from the people we meet
They make way day or night
They know the "in" crowd is outta sight!
I'm in with the "in" crowd
I know every latest dance
When you're in with the "in" crowd
It's easy to find romance
At a spot where the beat's really hot (there we'll go)
If it's square we ain't there
We make every minute count, yeah
Our share is always the biggest amount
Other guys imitate us
But the original's still the greatest
Got our own way of walkin' yeah
And our own way of talkin' yeah
Anytime of the year don't you hear (gotta have fun)
Spendin' cash and talkin' trash
Girl I'll show you a real good time yeah
Come on with me and leave your troubles behind
I don't care where you've been
You ain't been nowhere 'til you been in
With the "in" crowd oh yeah
With the "in" crowd
Got our own way of walkin'
And our own way of talkin' yeah
Walkin' with the "in" crowd
Talkin' 'bout the "in" crowd
mmmmmmm
... and I go where the "in" crowd goes
mmmmmmm
... and I know what the "in" crowd knows

California Nights
California Nights
Composer(s): Marvin Hamlisch - Howard Liebling
First release by: Lesley Gore - 1967
Covered by multiple other artists
Along the sand
Let's walk the shore together, now, just hand in hand
It's gonna be fair weather, now
When the stars come out, stop to count them in the sky
Love California nights
When I'm walkin' with you hand in hand by the shore
Yes, I love California nights
At the beach where we'd swim with the tide rolling in
And there will be beneath the midnight sky above
Just you and me, and we will whisper words of love
While the fire light softly flickers in the sand
Warm California nights
With the breeze blowin' in - time for love to begin
I would miss California nights if I went on my way
Thinkin' now that I'll stay
Ooh, baby
Love you, baby
Mm, baby
Love California nights
Always close as a kiss, nothing's sweeter than this
And we'll spend California nights
Always close as a kiss ...

Falling (Lenny LeBlanc & Pete Carr)
Falling
Performer(s): Lenny LeBlanc & Pete Carr
I think about winter when I was with her
And the snow was falling down
Warmed by the fire
I love being by her
When there's no one else around
And I'm falling
Woah, I'm falling
I'm falling in love with you
I think about summer
My head was swimming
You wrote my name in the sand
We walked together
Hoping forever
Please don't let go of my hand
'Cause I'm falling
Woah, I'm falling
Oh, I'm falling in love with you
The fall and the springtime
Were like in between times
You're here and then you're gone away
Woah, I just wanted to say
Won't you please, please stay
'Cause I'm falling
Oh, I'm falling
I'm falling in love with you
Woah, I'm falling
Ya, I'm falling
Oh, I'm falling in love with you
In love with you
In love with you

That's Your Mistake
That's Your Mistake
Composer(s): Rudy Toombs
Performer(s): Otis Williams
and multiple other artists
That's your mistake
You had to run around
That's your mistake
You played me for a clown
I found somebody now
Sweet as can be
And they don't do that me
That's your mistake
To mistreat me so
That's your mistake
To ever let me go
I found somebody now
Sweet as can be
And they don't do that me
You spent my money
Didn't want my love
It wasn't me
You were thinking of
You played your hand
And you had your fun
Now if you're in the cold
And you have no one
That's your mistake
To think I was your fool
That's your mistake
To rate this lover's rule
I found somebody now
Sweet as can be
And they don't do that me
No, they don't do that me
No, they won't do that to me

Fallin' In Love
Composer(s): Hamilton, Joe Frank & Reynolds
Performer(s): Hamilton, Joe Frank & Reynolds
Chorus
Baby, baby, fallin' in love
I'm fallin' in love again
Baby, baby, fallin' in love
I'm fallin' in love again
I could never see what fate had meant for me
And then you came and made my dreams match reality
Maybe you can see all the things you've meant to me
And my simple fate is at the gate and, girl, you've got the key
Chorus
It seems like yesterday you and I first loved this way
But now I know how love can grow with each and every day
As we lay at midnight's hour and feel love's hidden power
So strong and bold as life unfolds its mystery to me
Chorus
You and me for eternity in love will always be
Young and free and that should be the way it's gotta be
Chorus

That's Worth While Waiting For
That's Worth While Waiting For
Composer(s): Sam M. Lewis - Joe Young - Harry Ruby
I know a boy who is crazy about a certain pet
It's two years since they've met, and he hasn't got her yet
This little girl that he's crazy about kind o' turned his head
'Cause when I asked him to describe her
Here's what he said
Each night he begs for that one little kiss, he's wild about
He'll get that kiss no doubt, if his patience don't wear out
Day after day he keeps telling the boys, what a gal he has
And when he's finished they all holler
"Cut out that jazz"
"She's just the kind of a miss that's worth while waiting for
She's got the kind of a kiss, that's worth while waiting for
She's always bashful and shy, but when you whisper "good-bye"
She puts that 'promising look' in her eye, that's worth while waiting for
She's got that wonderful smile the smile that you adore
She let's you squeeze her awhile, then makes you beg for more
She's got the kind of petting, the kind that's worth while getting
And what's worth getting is worth while waiting for

Try to catch her if you please

Fallin'
Composer(s): Neil Sedaka; Howard Greenfield
Performer(s): Connie Francis;
and various other artists
I got to feelin' I'm a-fallin'
Like a star up in the blue
Like I was fallin' off Niag'ra
In a paddle boat canoe
I got to feelin' I'm a-fallin'
And it's all because o' you
Like I was walkin' on a tight rope
Swingin' in the breeze
And though I try to keep my balance
Well I just weaken in the knees
I got to feelin' I'm a-fallin'
Oh lover, help me please
Like a leaf falls from a branch
Like a rock slide avalanche
Like the rain on a stormy day
I never thought I'd fall this way
I thought that love could never touch me
Yeah, I was ridin' high
And then my iv'ry tower toppled
And I tumbled from the sky
I got to feelin' I'm a-fallin'
And lover, you're the reason why
Like Goliath when he met his foe
Like the walls of Jericho
Like Delilah's holy town
And Samson tore it down
I thought that love could never touch me
Yeah, I was ridin' high
But then my iv'ry tower toppled
And I tumbled from the sky
I got to feelin' I'm a fallin'
And you're the reason why
Oooh, you're the reason why
Yeah, you're the reason why
Baby, you're the reason why
Yeah, you're the reason why
Oooh, you're...........

Bright moon tray fiddlee run by through
Around and up to,

And every time I start to tell you
Words come to my throat but they stick there
Bright moon tray fiddlee run by through
Around and up to,
That's why I love you so much
That's why I love you like I do

Fallen Angel (The Bee Gees)
Fallen Angel
Composer(s): Barry Gibb; Maurice Gibb; Robin Gibb
Performer(s): The Bee Gees
Fool in the night on the stair
With the light by the window
Out in the jungle of life she was
Yearning to go
All of the years I've been there for the tears
She will sell you
Out in the city she search for the face
That she knew
Did you believe that a love so alive
Could be over
(Chorus)
Caroline
Fallen Angel
Caroline
Oh oh oh, oh oh oh
oh oh oh oh
Fallen Angel
I'm so lost
Tonight, lonely tonight
Lonely tonight
Fool is the father who clings to the
Child he is losing
Mother too weary to question
The wisdom of youth
There with your head in your hand
As you pray to her picture
Out in the rain she would search
For somebody to hold
Did you believe you could find
What you need with a stranger
(Chorus)
Did you believe that a love so alive
Could be over
(Chorus)

That's Why God Is Singing The Blues
That's Why God Is Singing The Blues
Composer(s): Ian Gillan
Performer(s): Deep Purple
We took the p out of paradise
just to produce this hell
And all we're going to leave behind is this decaying putrid smell
We've lived in this world
seen her used and abused
That's why god is singing the blues
They felled a great oak over there
they filled a duck pond over here
We've got a glass and concrete monster now that feeds and caters to
our fears
Maybe it's too late
to spoil another view
That's why god is singing the blues
Forgive us father
for we know not what we do
Blame it on each other
and in the name of you
Forgive us mother
for the pain we caused
we destroyed what's yours
That's why papa's singing the blues
Polluted all the oceans
pulped all the trees
Plagued by chronic boredom
we blew a hole in the atmosphere
We tore out her heart
left her battered and bruised
That's why god is singing the blues
Forgive us father
for we know not what we do
Blame it on each other
and in the name of you
Forgive us mother
for the pain we caused
we destroyed what's yours
That's why papa's singing the blues
You may believe in evolution
you may believe in god's great creation
The only thing we know for sure
we got a man made situation
We turned this whole world
into a dying zoo
That's why god is singing the blues
You better live on your feet
than die on your knees
I stole that from some graffiti
lord have mercy please
Living in this babylon
keeps us confused
That's why god is singing the blues

California Earthquake
Composer(s): John Hartford
Performer(s): Mama Cass; John Hartford
I heard they exploded
The underground blast
What they say's gonna happen
Gonna happen at last
That's the way it appears
They tell me the fault line runs right through here
So that may be
That may be
What's gonna happen gonna happen to me
That's the way it appears
They tell me the fault line runs right through here
Atlantis will rise
Sunset Boulevard will fall
Where the beach used to be
Won't be nothing at all
That's the way it appears
They tell me the fault line runs right through here
So that may be
That may be
What's gonna happen gonna happen to me
That's the way it appears
They tell me the fault line runs right through here

Fallen Angel
Composer(s): Robert Fripp;
Richard Palmer-James; John Wetton
Performer(s): King Crimson
Tears of joy at the birth of a brother
Never alone from that time
Sixteen Years through knife fights and danger
Strangely why his life not mine
West side skyline crying
Fallen angel dying
Risk a life to make a dime
Lifetimes spent on the streets of a city
Make us the people we are
Switchblade stings in one tenth of a moment
Better get back to the car
Snow white side streets of cold New York City
Stained with his blood it all went wrong
Sick and tired blue wicked and wild
God only knows for how long
Fallen angel
Fallen angel
West side skyline
Crying for an angel dying
Life expiring in the city
Fallen angel...

The way you make me feel like I belong
The way you make me right when I am wrong
The way you sacrifice just for me
Just how lucky can a poor man be?

That is why...
(That's why I love you so)
Don't you know, baby...
(That's why I love you so)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I want the world to know
The way you rub my back when I'm in pain
The way you soothe me so I won't complain
And when you kiss me with your ruby red lips
It thrills me so, I turn a back-over flip
That is why...
(That's why I love you so)
Don't you know, baby...
(That's why I love you so)

If Shakespeare thought that Juliet
Really loved Romeo from the time they met
He would blow his top if he could see
Just how you've been lovin' me
The way you rub my back when I'm in pain
The way you soothe me so I won't complain
And when you kiss me with your ruby red lips
It thrills me so, I turn a back-over flip
That is why...
(That's why I love you so)
That is why...
(That's why I love you so)
C'mon now, baby...
(That's why I love you so)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I want to take it easy, baby...
(That's why I love you so)
Take it easy, honey...
(That's why I love you so)
Don't you know now...
(That's why I love you so)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I want the... one more time, now...

Composer(s): Michel Vaucaire; Charles Dumont
Performer(s): Edith Piaf; Charles Dumont
Pour partir de chez moi
Pour partir de chez toi
Pour laisser tout tomber
Sans regarder derrière soi
Fallait-il, fallait-il
Fallait-il que l'on s'aime...
Fallait-il en avoir
De l'amour, toi et moi...
Pour chaque fois se quitter
Sur un mot maladroit
Pour chaque fois le regretter
Et chaque fois recommencer
Fallait-il, fallait-il
Fallait-il que l'on s'aime...
Fallait-il en avoir
De l'amour, toi et moi...
Pour s'aimer aussi mal
Aussi mal qu'on s'aimait
Pour se faire autant de mal
Autant de mal qu'on s'est fait
Fallait-il, fallait-il
Fallait-il que l'on s'aime...
Fallait-il en avoir
De l'amour, toi et moi...
Pour n'avoir jamais pu
Être heureuse...
Être heureuse après toi...
