Row! Row! Row!
Row! Row! Row!
Composer(s): William Jerome; James V. Monaco
Performer(s): Ada Jones;
and various other artists
Young Johnny Jones he had a cute little boat
And all the girlies he would take for a float
He had girlies on the shore
Sweet little peaches by the score
But master Johnny was a wis'un, you know
His steady girl was Flo
And every Sunday afternoon
She'd jump in his boat
And they would spoon
And then he'd row, row, row
Way up the river he would row, row, row
A hug he'd give her
Then he'd kiss her now and then
She would tell him when,
They'd fool around and fool around
And then they'd kiss again.
And then he'd row, row, row
A little further he would go, oh, oh, oh
Then he'd drop both his oars
Take a few more encores
And then he'd row, row, row
And then he'd row, row, row
Way up the river he would row, row, row
A hug he'd give her
Then he'd kiss her now and then
She would tell him when,
They'd fool around and fool around
And then they'd kiss again.
And then he'd row, row, row
A little further he would go, oh, oh, oh
Then we'll drop both our oars
Take a round of applause
And then we'll go, go, go

Conscience
Conscience
Composer(s): Barry Mann - Cynthia Weil
Performer(s): James Darren
I got a date tonight with such a sweet little innocent thing
I'll sweep 'er off her feet before she knows what's a-happening
I'm gonna hand her (ooh) my "sweet-talkin'" line
I know it kills her (shriek!) every time
She's gonna love me from the start
And then I'm gonna break her heart
(Unh, unh, unh, unh)
(This is your conscience speaking)
(Be kind and sentimental, treat her tenderly)
('cause if you're not a gentleman, you're gonna hear from me)
(And if she loves you from the very start now listen, Jimmy)
(I'm tellin' you, you better not break her heart)
(No, no, no, no-no, no-no)
Oh, yes I will (Oh, no, you won't)
Yes, I will (No, you won't)
Oh, yes I will, yes I will, yes I will!!
I'm just a big bad wolf, I know tonight I'll be looking' so good
She'll be a helpless child just like a-Little Red Riding' Hood
I'm gonna charm her (mmm!) right into a trance
I know she'll never (wow!) stand a chance
She's gonna love me from the start
And then I'm gonna break her heart
(Unh, unh, unh, unh)
(This is your conscience speaking)
(Be kind and sentimental, treat her tenderly)
('cause if you're not a gentleman, you're gonna hear from me)
(And if she loves you from the very start now listen, Jimmy)
(I'm tellin' you, you better not break her heart)
(No, no, no, no-no, no-no)
Oh, yes I will (Oh, no you won't)
Yes, I will (No, you won't)
Yes I will, yes I will, yes I will!!
(Now listen, Jimmy, you better not break her heart)
But I'm a lover!!!

Man, my reputation!!
(You better not break her heart)

Roving Gambler
Roving Gambler
Composer(s): Dean Manuel; Bobby Dyson
Performer(s): The Everly Brothers
I am a roving gambler
Gamble all around
Whenever I need a deck of cards
I lay my money down
I've gambled down in Cape Town
Played cards in Bloemfontein
But I'm going back to Kimberley
To gamble my last game
To gamble my last game
I hadn't been in Kimberley
Many more days than three
When I fell in love with a purdy little girl
She fell in love with me
She took me in her parlour
Cooled me with a fan
She whispered low in her mother's ear
I love this gambling man
I love this gambling man
Tonight I'll go out on the town
Hoping lady luck will bring
A winning hand to this gambling man
Then I'll buy a diamond ring
The gamblers took their places
The cards were dealt around
I caught him dealing from the bottom of the deck
And I shot that gambler down
Here I am in prison
Dragging a ball and chain
I can still hear the old judge say
You've gambled your last game
Gambled your last game

There I Go
There I Go
Composer(s): Irving Weiser - Hy Zaret
Performer(s): Bebe Daniels
and multiple other artists
There I go, leading with my heart again
And there I go, acting not so smart again
But though it's unwise
I can't disguise my love
Though one knows too much love will curb the fire
Yet there I go, led astray by my desire
There's no golden rule
To guide a fool in love
I tell my heart, "Be careful
Or you'll find that you'll dream alone"
I'm wise, it's true, what good does it do
My heart has a mind of it's own
There I go, spilling all the dreams I knew
And there I go, thrillingly in love with you
Don't know if you care
Darling, but there I go
I tell my heart, "Be careful
Or you'll find that you'll dream alone"
I'm wise, it's true, what good does it do
My heart has a mind of it's own
There I go, spilling all the dreams I knew
And there I go, thrillingly in love with you
Don't know if you care
Darling, but there I go

Conquistador (Procol Harum)
Conquistador
Composer(s): Gary Brooker - Keith Reid
First release by: Procol Harum - 1967
Conquistador your stallion stands in need of company
And like some angel's haloed brow
You reek of purity
I see your armor plated breast
Has long since lost its sheen
And in your death mask face
There are no signs which can be seen
And though I hoped for something to find
I could see no place to unwind
Conquistador a vulture sits, upon your silver sheath
And in your rusty scabbard now, the sand has taken seed
And though your jewel-encrusted blade
Has not been plundered still
The sea has washed across your face
And taken of its fill
And though I hoped for something to find
I could see no place to unwind
Conquistador there is no time, I must pay my respect
And though I came to jeer at you
I leave now with regret
And as the gloom begins to fall
I see there is no, only all
Though you came with sword held high
You did not conquer, only die
And though I hoped for something to find
I could see no place to unwind
And though I hoped for something to find
I could see no place to unwind

If you ever plan to motor west
travel my way, take the highway that is best
Get your kicks on Route sixty-six

Get your kicks on Route sixty-six
Now you go through Saint Looey
Joplin, Missouri
and Oklahoma City is mighty pretty
You see Amarillo
Gallup, New Mexico
Flagstaff, Arizona
Don't forget Winona
Kingman, Barstow, San Bernardino
Won't you get hip to this timely tip
when you make that California trip
Get your kicks on Route sixty-six
Won't you get hip to this timely tip
when you make that California trip
Get your kicks on Route sixty-six
Get your kicks on Route sixty-six
Get your kicks on Route sixty-six

There He Goes
There He Goes
Composer(s): Eddie Miller - Durwood Haddock - W.S. Stevenson
Performer(s): Patsy Cline
There he goes, he's walkin' away
Each step he takes brings heartaches my way
She won his heart, I lost him someway
There he goes, he's walkin' away
If I hadn't cheated and I hadn't lied
I'd be the one, walkin' by his side
I love him still and I guess that it shows
He's walkin' away, there he goes
Oh, if I hadn't cheated and I hadn't lied
I'd be the one walkin' by his side
I love him still and I guess that is shows
He's walkin' away, there he goes

Roundabout
Roundabout
Composer(s): Jon Anderson; Steve Howe
Performer(s): Yes
I'll be the roundabout
The words will make you out 'n' out
And change the day your way
Call it morning driving thru the sound and in and out the valley
The music dance and sing
They make the children really ring
I'll spend the day your way
Call it morning driving thru the sound and in and out the valley
In and around the lake
Mountains come out of the sky and they stand there
One mile over we'll be there and we'll see you
Ten true summers we'll be there and laughing too
Twenty four before my love you'll see I'll be there with you
I will remember you
Your silhouette will charge the view
Of distance atmosphere
Call it morning driving thru the sound and even in the valley
In and around the lake
Mountains come out of the sky and they stand there
One mile over we'll be there and we'll see you
Ten true summers we'll be there and laughing too
Twenty four before my love you'll see I'll be there with you
Along the drifting cloud the eagle searching down on the land
Catching the swirling wind the sailor sees the rim of the land
The eagles dancing wings create as weather spins out of hand
Go closer hold the land feel partly no more than grains of sand
We stand to lose all time a thousand answers by in our hand
Next to your deeper fears we stand
Surrounded by a millions years
I'll be the round about
The words will make you out 'n' out
I'll be the round about
The words will make you out 'n' out
I'll be the round about
The words will make you out 'n' out
And change the day your way
Call it morning driving thru the sound and in and out the valley
In and around the lake
Mountains come out of the sky and they stand there
One mile over we'll be there and we'll see you
Ten true summers we'll be there and laughing too
Twenty four before my love you'll see I'll be there with you

There Has Never Been
There Has Never Been
Performer(s): Shirley Jones
I felt the warmnest of your breath
It's hard to tell, is it now or then...
Our past our life so far apart
never to question never to ask why...
There has never been a lover ever
to satisfy my warmest desire...
until you came along from where, I don't know...
When sunlight shines on your face
my heart race to the other place...
where we met so long ago...
Hold my hands promises to never let me go...
To sickness and in health...
There has never been a lover ever
to satisfy my warmest desire...
until you came along from where, I don't know...
There has never been a lover ever
to satisfy my warmest desire...
Baby, Baby until you came along and sealed my faith...
Father I ask of you to make it last
just long enough until I can feel
That lift you once blessed us with once before..
My true love have looked me in the eyes again
for this last time...
There has never been a lover ever
to satisfy my warmest desire...
until you came along from where, I don't know...
There has never been a lover ever
to satisfy my warmest desire...
until you came along from where, I don't know...
The pleasure I feel from this lover that has never been..
A lover ever, a lover ever to love me like you
yes you baby to satisfy my warmest desire
until you came along and sealed my faith...

Conjured
Conjured
Composer(s): Denise Craig; William Robert Emerson
Performer(s): Wynonie Harris
You said it was love made me stutter when I talk
But is it love that makes me stagger when I walk?
The Gypsy woman told me
"She's got you conjured, son"
Well, somebody's lyin' -- you are that Gypsy one
You said I was jealous when I didn't go to work
You sprinkled my shoes with graveyard dirt
The Gypsy woman told me
"She's got you conjured, son"
Well, somebody's lyin' -- you are that Gypsy one
The whiskey you bought me, I was afraid to unscrew it
The Gypsy woman told me it was embalming fluid
You got a Black Cat Bone and a Buzzard Feather
A John the Conquer Root and they're all tied together
The Gypsy woman told me
"She's got you conjured, son"
Well, somebody's lyin' -- you are that Gypsy one
The whiskey you bought me, I was afraid to unscrew it
The Gypsy woman told me it was embalming fluid
You got a Black Cat Bone and a Buzzard Feather
A John the Conquer Root and they're all tied together
The Gypsy woman told me
"She's got you conjured, son"
Well, somebody's lyin' -- you are that Gypsy one

'Round Midnight
'Round Midnight
Composer(s): Bernie Hanighen;
Thelonious Monk; Cootie Williams
Performer(s): Julie London;
and various other artists
It begins to tell
'round midnight, midnight
I do pretty well, till after sundown
Suppertime I'm feelin' sad
But it really gets bad
'round midnight
Memories always start 'round midnight
Haven't got the heart to stand those memories
When my heart is still with you
And ol' midnight knows it, too
When a quarrel we had needs mending
Does it mean that our love is ending
Darlin' I need you, lately I find
You're out of my heart
And I'm out of my mind
Let our hearts take wings'
'round midnight, midnight
Let the angels sing
for your returning
Till our love is safe and sound
And old midnight comes around
Feelin' sad
really gets bad
Round, Round, Round Midnight

There Goes That Song Again
There Goes That Song Again
Composer(s): Jule Styne - Sammy Cahn
Performer(s): Kay Kyser & His Orch.
and multiple other artists
There goes that song again
We used to call it our serenade
We fell in love when we heard it played
Over and over and over and over again
I still remember when
I sang the words and they made you mine
I'd steal a kiss and repeat each line
Over and over and over and then
We drifted apart
You walked off with my heart
It's funny how one listen
Just starts me reminiscin'
I'd soon forget that yen
I told myself when you said, "So long"
But I was wrong
There goes that song again
We drifted apart
You walked off with my heart
It's funny how one listen
Just starts me reminiscin'
I'd soon forget that yen
I told myself when you said, "So long"
But I was wrong
There goes that song again

Conjunction Junction
Conjunction Junction
Composer(s): Bob Dorough
Performer(s): Bob Dorough & Dave Frishberg
and multiple other artists
Conjunction Junction, what's your function?
Hooking up words and phrases and clauses
Conjunction Junction, how's that function?
I've got three favorite cars
That get most of my job done
Conjunction Junction, what's their function?
I've got and, but, and or
They'll get you pretty far
And
That's an additive, like this and that
But
That's sort of the opposite
not this but that
And then there's or
O-R, when you have a choice like
This or that
And, but, and or
Get you pretty far
Conjunction Junction, what's your function?
Hooking up two boxcars and making them run right
Milk and honey, bread and butter, peas and rice
Hey that's nice
Dirty but happy, digging and scratching
Losing your shoe and a button or two
He's poor but honest, sad but true
Boo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo!
Conjunction Junction, what's your function?
Hooking up two cars to one
When you say something like this - choice
Either now or later
Or no choice
Neither now nor ever
Hey that's clever
Eat this or that
Grow thin or fat
Never mind, I wouldn't do that
I'm fat enough now!
Conjunction Junction, what's your function?
Hooking up phrases and clauses that balance, like
Out of the frying pan and into the fire
He cut loose the sandbags
but the balloon wouldn't go any higher
Let's go up to the mountains
Or down to the sea
You should always say "Thank you"
Or at least say "Please"
Conjunction Junction, what's your function?
Hooking up words and phrases and clauses
in complex sentences like
In the morning, when I am usually wide awake
I love to take a walk through the gardens
and down by the lake, where I usually see a
duck and a drake, and I wonder as I walk by
what they would say if they could speak
although I know that's an absurd thought
Conjunction Junction, what's your function?
Hooking up cars and making them function
Conjunction Junction, how's that function?
I like tying up words and phrases and clauses
Conjunction Junction, watch that function
I'm going to get you there if you're very careful
Conjunction Junction, what's your function?
I'm going to get you there if you're very careful

There goes my heart, there goes the one I love
There goes the girl I wasn't worthy of
There goes my happiness, it couldn't be

Goodbye romance, it couldn't last somehow

I never thought that she could pass me by
There goes my heart and here am I
I never thought that she could pass me by
There goes my heart and here am I
