Oh Julie (The Crescendos)


Oh Julie
Composer(s): Ken Moffitt; Noel Ball
Performer(s): The Crescendos;
Otis Williams; Sammy Salv; Jan & Dean



(Oh, Julie)
(Ah-hah-hah)
(Oh, Julie)
(Ah-hah-hah)

Oh-oh-hoh-oh-hoh, oh, Julie
You'll never know how I love you
Oh-oh-hoh-oh-hoh, oh, Julie
A teenage dream that can't come true

I see you, Julie
Each day as you walk by
But maybe some day, Julie
I'll be the apple of your eye

Although you're older than me
Makes no difference, you see
As you are my shining star
You've heard of passion for love
And jealousy, my dove
Well that's the way I feel about you

I need you, Julie
You'll never know how my heart yearns
Oh, please, please help me
My love just burns and burns

But someday, Julie
When I'm as old as you
I'll take you, Julie
And make my dreams come true

(Break)

But someday, Julie
When I'm as old as you
I'll take you, Julie
And make my dreams come true

Oh Julie (Shakin' Stevens)


Oh Julie
Composer(s): Shakin' Stevens
Performer(s): Shakin' Stevens;
Sanford Clark; Barry Manilow



Whoa, whoa Julie, if you love me truly
Do you want me, Julie, to be, be your very own?
Julie, love me only, Julie, don't be lonely
Because I want you only to be, to be my very own

Ooh, Baby, don't leave me, honey, don't grieve me
Julie, why leave me alone?
Stay with me, baby, lay with me, maybe
Honey, don't leave me alone!

Julie, never leave me, please, don't deceive me!
Julie, oh, believe me and be, be my very own

(Orchestral Break)

Whoa, whoa Julie, if you love me truly
Do you want me, Julie, to be, be your very own?
Mmm, Baby, don't leave me, honey, don't grieve me
Julie, why leave me alone?

Stay with me, baby, lay with me, maybe
Honey, don't leave me alone!
Julie, never leave me, please, don't deceive me!
Julie, oh believe me and be, be my very own

Whoa, whoa Julie, if you love me truly
Do you want me, Julie, to be, be your very own?
To be, to be, to be, to be your very own
To be, to be, to be, to be your very own

Oh Johnny, Oh Johnny, Oh!


Oh Johnny, Oh Johnny, Oh!
Composer(s): Ed Rose; Abe Olman
Performer(s): The Andrew Sisters;
and various other artists



Oh, Johnny!
Oh, Johnny!
How you can love!
Oh, Johnny!
Oh, Johnny!
Heavens above!
You make my sad heart jump with joy
And when you're near I just
Can't sit still a minute
I'm so
Oh, Johnny!
Oh, Johnny!
Please tell me dear
What makes me love you so?
You're not handsome, it's true
But when I look at you
I just
Oh, Johnny!
Oh, Johnny!
Oh!

Oh Joe, With Your Fiddle And Bow You Stole My Heart Away


Oh Joe, With Your Fiddle And Bow
You Stole My Heart Away
Composer(s): William Tracey; Walter Donaldson



Malinda White most every night
Took in a ragtime cabaret
She had a beau, his name was Joe
And he was hired there to play a ragtime violin
To his raggy swing they'd sing
The latest songs, the whole night long
And to the jingle of the dimes
Upon the floor he'd play some more
He'd rag the chorus fifty times
Malinda White would stay till the break of day she's say

When she was blue Malinda knew
Just how to drive the blues away
She'd think of Joe and quickly go
Where she could hear her sweetie play a ragtime melody
Then contented she would be
His music sweet was sure a treat
And to each syncopated note
The people there upon the chairs
Just kept a rockin' like a boat
Each time she caught his eye
Lindy White would sigh then cry

Go on and rag a little upon your fiddle
I love your harmony
The tunes you play every night
No Master ever could write
Oh! there ain't much to it, but the way you do it
I just can't help but say
Oh, Joe with your fiddle and bow
You went and stole my heart away

Oh How The Years Go By


Oh How The Years Go By
Composer(s): Simon Climie; Will Jennings
Performer(s): Vanessa Williams;
Marie Evans; Amy Grant; Shelonda



In our times of trouble
We only had ourselves
Nobody else
No one there to save us
We had to save ourselves

And when the storms came through
They found me and you
Back to back together
And when the sun would shine
It was yours and mine
Yours and mine forever

[Chorus:]
Oh how the years go by
Oh how the love brings tears to my eyes
All through the changes the sould never dies
We fight, we laugh, we cry
As the years go by

There were times we stumbled
They thought they had us down
But we came around
How we rolled and rambled
We got lost and we got found
Now we're back on solid ground, yeah

We took everything
All our times would bring
In this world of dangers
'Cause when your heart is strong
You know you're not alone
In this world of strangers

[Chorus]

And if we lose our way
Any night or day
Well we'll always be
Where we should be
I'm there for you
And I know you're there for me

[Chorus]

Oh How Happy
Composer(s): Edwin Starr
Performer(s): Shades Of Blue;
and various other artists



Oh, how happy
You have made me
Oh, how happy
You have made me

I have kissed your lips a thousand times
And more times than I can count I have called you mine
You have stood by me in my darkest hour, and
[repeat chorus]

In our years together, we have had stormy weather
But our love has been so strong that somehow we've carried on
[repeat chorus]

(Oh, how happy) oh, how happy
(Oh, how happy) oh, how happy
(Oh, how happy) you.....
(You have made me) you have made me [repeat to fade]

Oh Helen


Oh Helen
Composer(s): Chas. R. McCarron; Carey Morgan
Performer(s): Ian Whitcomb



Willie Meek tho' good at grammar
When he'd speak he'd always stammer
And when he tried, He'd be mortified

He'd call on a girl named Helen, most ev'ry day
He'd start sighin' like a dyin' calf
and then he'd say

Oh H-H-Hel- Oh H-H-Hel- Oh Helen please be mine
Your f-f-feat- your f-f-feat- your features are divine
I s-s-swear I s-s-swear I swear I will be true
Oh D-D-Dam- Oh D-D-Dam- Oh Damsel I love you

Helen's daddy knocked him silly
Ripping mad he went for Willie
Thought him profane, nearly went insane
But when Willie Meek explained it
It was all right

Now her father doesn't bother, when he says each night
You s-s-simp- you s-s-simp- you simply are divine
You m-m-mud- you m-m-mud- you muddle me it's true

Oh H-H-Hel- Oh H-H-Hel- Oh Helen please be mine
Your f-f-feat- your f-f-feat- your features are divine
I s-s-swear I s-s-swear I swear I will be true
Oh D-D-Dam- Oh D-D-Dam- Oh Damsel I love you

Oh Girl


Oh Girl
Composer(s): Eugene Record
Performer(s): The Chi-Lites



Oh, girl
I'd be in trouble if you left me now
'Cause I don't know where to look for love
I just don't know how

Oh, girl
How I depend on you
To give me love when I need it
Right on time you would always be

All my friends call me a fool
They say, "let the woman take care of you"
So I try to be hip and think like the crowd
But even the crowd can't help me now, oh-oh-oh

Oh, girl
Tell me, what am I gonna do
I know I got a guilty face
Girl, I feel so out of place, oh yeah

(I don't know where to go, who to see, yeah

Oh, girl
I guess I better go
I can save myself a lot of useless tears
Girl I've gotta get away from here

Oh, girl
Pain will double if you leave me now
'Cause I don't know where to look for love
And I don't, I don't know how

Oh Darling


Oh Darling
Composer(s): Rick Davies; Roger Hodgson
Performer(s): Supertramp



Oh darling, will you ever change your mind
I've been feeling left behind
Like a shadow in your light

Ah honey won't you say that I'm the one
And if you think you're gonna run
Well you know

I'm gonna be around you, all about you
Always by your side
I'm gonna dream about you, scheme about you
Love you all the time,

Love you all the time
I'm gonna catch you lady
Catch you lady

The news is all over town
You better not let me down
Keep telling me you're feeling good
As good as you ever could
Please tell me that you'll never go
Ah ah no no

Ah lately, I'm like a watch that's overwound
And I've got both feet off the ground
Because you see

I'm gonna be so busy, oh my pretty
Love you night and day
And through the rain and shine
I'll make you mine
I'll love you come what may
I'm gonna catch you lady, catch you lady
Catch you lady uh huh

Oh Daddy


Oh Daddy
Composer(s): Christine McVie
Performer(s): Fleetwood Mac;
Natalie Cole; Invincibles; Tallulah



Oh Daddy
You know you make me cry
How can you love me
I don't understand why

Oh Daddy
If I can make you see
If there's been a fool around
It's got to be me

Oh Daddy
You soothe me with your smile
You're letting me know
You're the best thing in my life

Oh Daddy
If I can make you see
If there's been a fool around
It's got to be me

Why are you right when I'm so wrong
I'm so weak but you're so strong
Everything you do is just alright
And I can't walk away from you, baby
If I tried

Oh Baby Doll


Oh Baby Doll
Composer(s): Chuck Berry
Performer(s): Chuck Berry;
The Crawdaddys; The Pretty Things



Oh Baby Doll!
when bells ring out the summer free
Oh baby doll
will it end for you and me?
We'll sing our old Alma Mater
and think of things that used to be

I remember it so well
back when the weather was cool
we used to have so much fun
when we were walking to school
if we stopped off to hear
the latest songs they sing
and we just make it in
before the bells would ring

Oh Baby Doll!
etc...

When the teacher was gone
that's when we'd have a ball
we use to dance and play
all up and down the hall
we had a portable radio
we was ballin' the jack
We'd be all back in order
when the teacher got back

Oh Baby Doll!
etc...

Oh Babe, What Would You Say?


Oh Babe, What Would You Say?
Composer(s): E.S. Smith
Performer(s): Hurricane Smith;
and various other artists



Have I a hope or half a chance
To even ask if I could dance with you?
You-hoo!
Would you greet me or politely turn away?
Would there suddenly be sunshine on a cold and rainy day?
Oh, Babe!
What would you say?

For there are you, sweet lollipop
Here am I with such a lot to say, hey, hey!
Just to walk with you along the Milky Way
To caress you through the night time, bring you flowers every day.....
Oh, Babe!
What would you say?

Guess, though, Baby, I know
I know I could be so in love with you!
And I know that I could make you love me too
And if I could only hear you say you do, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh!
But anyway, what would you say?

(Instrumental Break)

Guess, though, Baby, I know
I know I could be so in love with you!
And I know that I could make you love me too
And if I could only hear you say you do, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh!
But anyway, what would you say?

Ogni Volta


Ogni Volta
Composer(s): Antonello Venditti
Performer(s): Antonello Venditti



Ogni volta che parlo di te
tu fai parte o non parte di me
ogni volta che piango per te
tu fai parte o non parte di noi
E mille nuovi amori cercherò
per non amarti più
ma mai nessuna al mondo sarai tu
E stanotte la passi con lui
ma ogni cosa ti parla di noi
ogni frase, ogni gesto che fai
è già stato vissuto da noi
Chiudi gli occhi e pensi che
le sue mani, la sua pelle no, non sono me
Ogni volta che parli di me
faccio parte o non parte di te
ogni volta che piangi per me
faccio parte o non parte di noi
A tutti i nostri amici tu dirai
di non amarmi più
ma solo io saprò a chi pensi tu
voglio te voglio te, voglio te
perché tu, tu fai parte di me
voglio te, voglio te, voglio te
fino all'ultimo sguardo
all'ultimo istante
all'ultimo giorno che avrò

Ogni Favola E Un Gioco


Ogni Favola E Un Gioco
Composer(s): Edoardo Bennato
Performer(s): Edoardo Bennato



Ogni favola è un gioco
che si fa con il tempo
ed è vera soltanto a metà
la puoi vivere tutta
in un solo momento
è una favola è non è realtà

Ogni favola è un gioco
che finisce se senti
tutti vissero felici e contenti
forse esiste da sempre
non importa l'età
perché è vera soltanto a metà!...

Ogni favola è un gioco
è una storia inventata
ed è vera soltanto a metà
e fa il giro del mondo
e chissà dove è nata
è una favola, e non è realtà

Ogni favola è un gioco
se ti fermi a giocare
dopo un po' lasciala andare
non la puoi ritrovare
in nessuna città
perché è vera soltanto a metà!...
Universi sconosciuti
anni luce da esplorare
astronavi della mente
verso altre verità!

Ogni favola è un gioco
che si fa con il tempo
ed è vera soltanto a metà
la puoi vivere tutta
in un solo momento
è una favola e non è realtà!

Ogni favola è un gioco
se ti fermi a giocare
dopo un po' lasciala andare
non la puoi ritrovare
in nessuna città
perché è vera soltanto a metà!...

Ogen Kunnen Niet Liegen


Ogen Kunnen Niet Liegen
Composer(s): K. Lavoie; N. Bijl
Performer(s): Jimmy Frey



Reeds een jaar de tijd gaat vlug
Nu zie ik jou terug
Jij wordt rood en ik word bleek
Maar jij zegt dat het jou niets geeft
En jij lacht maar veel te luid
En je hart spreekt je niet uit
Als je zegt ik leef tevree
Want je ogen doen niet mee

Ogen kunnen niet liegen
Want je ogen vertellen
Wat je lippen ontkennen
Ogen kunnen niet liegen
Pas op je woorden want je ogen liegen niet

Iemand die je niet goed kent
Denkt dat je gelukkig bent
Mij maak je geen dromen wijs
Want je vreugde is geveinsd

Speel niet meer met ons geluk
Ik wil jou zo graag terug
En ik zie ook aan je blik
Dat je hetzelfde wenst als ik

Off The Wall


Off The Wall
Composer(s): Rod Temperton
Performer(s): Michael Jackson;
Sebastien Leger; Wisdome



When the world is on your shoulder
Gotta straighten up your act and boogie down
If you can’t hang with the feeling
Then there ain’t no room for you this part of town
’cause we’re the party people night and day
Livin’ crazy that’s the only way

So tonight gotta leave that nine to five upon the shelf
And just enjoy yourself
Groove, let the madness in the music get to you
Life ain’t so bad at all
If you live it off the wall
Life ain’t so bad at all (live life off the wall)
Live your life off the wall (live it off the wall)

You can shout out all you want to
’cause there ain’t no sin in folks all getting loud
If you take the chance and do it
Then there ain’t no one who’s gonna put you down
’cause we’re the party people night and day
Livin’ crazy that’s the only way

So tonight gotta leave that nine to five upon the shelf
And just enjoy yourself
C’mon and groove, and let the madness in the music get to you
Life ain’t so bad at all
If you live it off the wall
Life ain’t so bad at all (live life off the wall)
Live your life off the wall (live it off the wall)

Do what you want to do
There ain’t no rules it’s up to you (ain’t no rules it’s all up to you)
It’s time to come alive
And party on right through the night (all right)

Gotta hide your inhibitions
Gotta let that fool loose deep inside your soul
Want to see an exhibition
Better do it now before you get to old
’cause we’re the party people night and day
Livin’ crazy that’s the only way

So tonight gotta leave that nine to five upon the shelf and just enjoyyourself
C’mon and groove (yeah) let the madness in the music get to you
Life ain’t so bad at all if you live it off the wall
Life ain’t so bad at all (live life off the wall)
Live your life off the wall (live it off the wall)

So tonight gotta leave that nine to five upon the shelf and just enjoy yourself
C’mon and groove (yeah) let the madness in the music get to you
Life ain’t so bad at all if you live it off the wall
Life ain’t so bad at all (live life off the wall)
Live your life off the wall (live it off the wall)

Off The Record


Off The Record
Composer(s): George M. Cohan
Performer(s): James Cagney



It's really a wonderful job
For fellows like George, Abe and me, too
It's great to shake hands with the mod
And hold every kid on your knee, too
Ev'ry word that I speak goes into the headlines
When I speak all the papers hold their deadlines
But I've found a way of dropping a hint
Or a glint of the truth
That the boys cannot print
For instance...
For instance...

When I was only a governor and just a good-time Charlie
A certain party came to me - he said his name was Farley
Don't print it
It's strictly off the record
He sat right down and talked to me till I was in a stupor
And ended up by selling me the works of Fenimore Cooper
Don't print it
It's strictly off the record
I said, "you're quite a salesman
You've been sent here by the fates
If you can sell these dreary books
Which ev'rybody hates
Then maybe you can sell me the whole United States!"
But that's off the record

My messages to the Congress are a lot of Boola-boola
I'm not so fond of Bankhead, but I'd love to meet Tallulah
Don't print it
It's strictly off the record
I sit up in my bedroom reading books like Silas Marnner
and Sears and Roebuck catalogues to get away from Garner
Don't print it
It's strictly off the record
If I'm not re-elected and worst comes to the worst
I'll never die of hunger and I'll never die of thirst
I've got one boy with Du Pont and another one with Hearst
But that's off the record

When I go up to Hyde park it is not just for the ride there
It's not that I love Hyde park, but I love to park and hide there
Don't print that
It's strictly off the record
Oh, sing a song of Boulder Dam, but what's a little song worth?
We'll use it to throw razor blades, and maybe Alice Longworth
Don't print it
It's strictly off the record
And now I'd like to talk about some folks I used to know
Mr. John L. Lewis and His famous C.I.O.
"Frankie and Johnnie were sweethearts"
But that's off the record

My speeches on the radio have made me quite a hero
I only have to say "My friends" and stocks go down to zero
Don't print it
It's strictly off the record
The radio officials say that I'm the leading fellow
Jack Benny Can be President and I'll go on for Jell-O
Don't print it
It's strictly off the record
It's pleasant at the White House, but I'll tell you how I feel
The food is something terrible - just sauerkraut and veal
If Eleanor would stay at home I'd get a decent mean
But that's off the record

Off Night Backstreet


Off Night Backstreet
Composer(s): Joni Mitchell
Performer(s): Joni Mitchell; David Lahm



Maybe I'm just kidding myself when I say I love you
I don't know
Loving without trusting
You get--frostbite and sunstroke
I wish I felt nothing!
You pimp--laughing and strutting her to my chartered seat
Your old off night back street

It's been stinger to stinger, darling
It's been heart to heart
You still keep me from finishing
Any new love I start
Now she's moved in with you
She's keeping your house neat
And your sheets sweet
And I'm your off night back street

I can feel your fingers
Feeling my face
There are some lines you put there
And some you erase
Maybe I'm just dramatizing
I don't care
It's home--it can be heaven
When we play fair
But these sentimental journeys
Late at night--
High in some back room you're calling me
To be your off night back street

You give me such pleasure
You bring me such pain
Who left her long black hair
In our bathtub drain?

Off And Running


Off And Running
Composer(s): Carole Bayer Sager; Toni Wine
Performer(s): Lesley Gore;
Wayne Fontana & The Mindbenders



No matter what you do, no matter what you say
I've had enough of you; I'm gonna break way
I'm off and I'm runnin' just as far as I can go
I've had it up to here and I want out

I'd rather get my kicks; I'd rather have me fun
Ain't gonna take your tricks; my life has just begun
Well baby, I'm off and I'm runnin' just as far as I can go
I've had it up to here and I want out

Took my love for granted & you pushed your luck too far
Well, you play things underhanded & now I know just what you are
So baby, I'm off and I'm runnin' just as far as I can go
I've had it up to here and I want out, yeah

(instrumental)

No matter what you do, oh no matter what you say
I've had enough of you; I'm gonna break way
Oh baby I'm off and I'm runnin' just as far as I can go
I've had it up to here and I want out

(repeat & fade)
Yes I am off and I'm runnin' just as far as I can go
I've had it up to here and I want out
