Oh Why?
Oh Why?
Composer(s): William Scott
Performer(s): Little Richard
I dreamed I was arrested
Charged with a crime
Forgot to plead innocent
'Cause darling you're not mine
Oh why?
Why should it happen to me?
Well, I'm fine with it
Have mercy on me
The policeman said maybe
The judge he can agree
The jury keep on guessing
But the DA says it's me
Oh why?
Why should it happen to me?
Well, I'm fine with it
Have mercy on me
The lawyer said, plead guilty
And try to cop a plea
But why should I try plead guilty
When you don't belong to me?
Oh why?
Why should it happen to me?
Well, I'm fine with it
Have mercy on me
The policeman said maybe
The judge he can agree
The jury keep on guessing
But the DA says it's me
Oh why?
Why should it happen to me?
Well, I'm fine with it
Have mercy on me

Oh Why
Oh Why
Composer(s): Phil Spector
Performer(s): Teddy Bears
As the nights go by
I sit alone and wonder why
My arms won't free you
My heart won't try
And I ask myself why... oh why?
You are gone but where?
I call your name in ev'ry prayer
I walk alone where we walked together
And I ask myself why, why, oh why?
I will cry again
Your lips will lie again
Stars will never shine
Until the day you're mine
It would be divine
To find your lips so close to mine
I loved you only
Now I'm so lonely
And I ask myself why... why... oh why?

Oh What A Wonderful Day (Hey Pierre)
Oh What A Wonderful Day (Hey Pierre)
Composer(s): Ron Dante
Performer(s): Abrahamm & Strauss
Hey Pierre
Look at you
Sitting there
Like you do
Watching clouds
All day long
Singing such a silly song
(Chorus)
La la, la la, la la, la la
Hear the daisies growin' in the meadow
See the catfish playin' in the grass
Dogs and cats are married to each other
Smell the fresh air feel the poison gas
Oh what a beautiful day today is
Oh what a beautiful day
Oh what a beautiful day
Hey Monique
Where's Pierre?
I have looked
Everywhere
Please don't laugh
Something's wrong
Can you sing that silly song
(repeat chorus)
Hey Maurice
Where's Monique?
She and Pierre
Disappeared last week
They've been gone
Much too long
Guess I'll have to sing that song
(repeat chorus amongst a barrage of sound effects)
Oh what a beautiful day today is
Oh what a beautiful day...
(repeat and fade)

Oh What A Price
Oh What A Price
Composer(s): Maddux; Jessup; Fats Domino
Performer(s): Fats Domino;
Tri Tip Trio; Zydeco Flames
Oh what a price
I had to pay
For loving you, you ...
I bought a home
A diamond ring
I had to give up everything
Oh what a price
I had to pay
For loving you, you ...
I try so hard
To do what's right
But you only wrecked my life
Oh what a price
I had to pay
For loving you, you ...
I stopped my rambling
I even stopped gambling
I even stopped staying out all night
Oh what a price
I had to pay
For loving you, you ...
You heard my story
I sing my song
So good-bye baby I'm gone
Oh what a price
I had to pay
For loving you, you ...

Oh What A Feeling
Oh What A Feeling
Composer(s): Don Everly; Phil Everly
Performer(s): The Everly Brothers; White Hassle
It must be love
Oh what a feeling
I sit at home alone
I wait here by the phone
I know you never call
Oh what a feeling
It must be love
Although it's bitter
It must be love
I can't forget her
The days turn into weeks
Her letters I shall keep
The ones you didn't write
Oh what a feeling
It must be love
Oh what a feeling
it must be love
Oh what a feeling

Oh What A Beautiful Dream
Oh What A Beautiful Dream
Composer(s): By Dunham; Joe Hooven; Marilyn Hooven
Performer(s): Doris Day
Stardust started falling
You should have seen the moon
The moon was like a red balloon
There were clouds of pink ice cream
What a beautiful dream
We landed on a building a thousand stories high
We sat and watched the world roll by
Baby stars were all a gleam
What a beautiful dream
The world seemed empty of people
The air so pure and clean
It was the most fantastic place I've ever seen
I know I heard a choir and distant church bells chime
The bells were ringing all the time
Wedding cake and pink ice cream
What a beautiful dream
I know I heard a choir and distant church bells chime
The bells were ringing all the time
Wedding cake and pink ice cream
What a beautiful dream
Oh what a beautiful dream
Have some pink ice cream

Oh Well
Oh Well
Composer(s): Peter Green
Performer(s): Fleetwood Mac;
and various other artists
I can't help it, 'bout the shape I'm in
I can't sing, I ain't pretty, and my legs are thin
But don't ask me what I think of you
I might not give the answer that you want me to
Now when I talked to God, I knew he'd understand
He said "Stick by me and I'll be your guiding hand
But don't ask me what I think of you
I might not give the answer that you want me to"

Oh Very Young
Oh Very Young
Composer(s): Cat Stevens
Performer(s): Cat Stevens;
Susan Egan; David West
Oh very young
What will you leave us this time
Youre only dancing on this earth for a short while
And though your dreams may toss and turn you now
They will vanish away like your daddys best jeans
Denim Blue fading up to the sky
And though you want him to last forever
You know he never will
(You know he never will)
And the patches make the goodbye harder still
Oh very young
What will you leave us this time
There'll never be a better chance to change your mind
And if you want this world to see a better day
Will you carry the words of love with you
Will you ride the great white bird into heaven
And though you want to last forever
You know you never will
(You know you never will)
And the goodbye makes the journey harder still
Oh very young
What will you leave us this time
Youre only dancing on this earth for a short while
Oh very young
What will you leave us this time

Oh Urania (Take Me Away)
Oh Urania (Take Me Away)
Composer(s): Andrew Gold
Performer(s): Andrew Gold
One hundred million billion stars up in the sky
Each one looks so beautiful reflected in your eyes
I wonder if there could be life up there
A perfect world evolving anywhere
Down here the people have such problems on their hands
Nothing to believe in and fear divides the land
Can it be so unhappy everywhere?
Is there a place where everybody cares?
Oh Urania... Take me with you
Oh... Take me away
One hundred million billion stars up in the sky
Each one looks so beautiful reflected in your eyes
I wonder if there could be life up there
A perfect world evolving anywhere
Oh Urania... Take me with you
Oh... Take me away
Uh...
Oh Urania... Take me with you
Oh... Take me away
Oh Urania... Take me away (Take me away)
Oh Urania... Take me away (Take me away)
Oh Urania... Take me away (Take me away)
Oh Urania... Take me away (Take me away)
Oh Urania... Take me away (Take me away)
Oh Urania... Take me away (Take me away)
Oh Urania... Take me away (Take me away)
Oh Urania... Take me away (Take me away)
Oh Urania... Take me away (Take me away)

Oh That's Good, No That's Bad
Oh That's Good, No That's Bad
Composer(s): DeWayne; Richard Blackwell
Performer(s): Sam The Sham & The Pharaohs;
Nine Pound Hammer
(Ohhhhh, that's bad!) No, that's good!
Not long ago I was walking down the street
When a woman in a car knocked me off my feet
(Ohhhhh, that's bad!) No, that's good!
My insurance paid me a lot of dough
More money than I'd seen in a year's payroll
(Ohhhhh, that's good!) No, that's bad!
My doctors' bills is where my money went
And all I had left was a very bad limp
(Ohhhhh, that's bad!) No, that's good!
'Cause the way I walked got me a role
As the marshall's partner on a TV show
Pretty young actresses started hanging 'round
And every night we'd do the town
(Ohhhhh, that's good!) No, that's bad!
I ended up back in a hospital bed
'Cause my horse fell on my bad leg
(Ohhhhh, that's bad!) No, that's good!
'Cause just when I was feeling my worst
I fell in love with a beautiful nurse
(Ohhhhh, that's good!) No, that's bad!
'Cause I found out she was the doctor's wife
Now I'll be in a wheelchair the rest of my life
'Cause no matter how I pleaded and begged
He operated on my good leg
(Ohhhhh, that's bad!) No, that's AWFUL!!

Oh So Many Years
Oh So Many Years
Composer(s): Frankie Bailes
Performer(s): The Everly Brothers;
and various other artists
All these many years I've loved you
no one has ever known
No one has ever known but you alone
I've kept it locked inside my heart
and smiled through all my tears
My darling I have loved you
Oh so many years
Each night within my lonely room
I cried dear over you
and prayed to God that things would turn out right
But when the dawn of day appears
I brush away my tears
My darling I have loved you
Oh so many years
I'll go on pretending that my life is all so gay
and happy dear without you by my side
When all the time my heart is longing
just to have you near
My darling I have loved you
Oh so many years
Maybe fate will lead us down a path
where we will meet again
and then we'll both be free to love anew
Then one sweet kiss from your dear lips
will banish all my fears
My darling I have loved you
Oh so many years

Oh No, Not My Baby
Oh No, Not My Baby
Composer(s): Gerry Goffin; Carole King
Performer(s): Manfred Mann;
and various other artists
"Oh no, not my baby; oh no, not my sweet baby
Oh no, not my baby; oh no, not my sweet baby
Not my girl"
When my friends told me you had someone new
I didn't believe a single word was true
I told them all I had faith in you
I just kept on sayin'
"Oh no, not my baby; oh no, not my sweet baby
She don't go with other guys
& I don't think she would tell me lies"
My mama told me when rumors spread
There's truth somewhere & I should use my head
But I didn't listen to a word she said
I kept right on sayin'
"Oh no, not my baby; oh no, not my sweet baby
She's not like these other girls, you see
& I believe she's in love with me
Oh no no no no no, not my girl"
Well, you might have had a last-minute fling
But I am sure it didn't mean a thing
'Cause yesterday you accepted my ring
& now I'm glad that I just kept on sayin'
"Oh no, not my baby; oh no, not my sweet baby
Oh no, not my baby; oh no, not my sweet baby
Not my girl, not my girl"

Oh No
Oh No
Composer(s): Lionel Richie
Performer(s): The Commodores
I want you
To want me
I'm goin' crazy
Knowin' he will be your lover tonight
And when he comes,
I'll let you go
I'll just pretend that you walked out the door
Oh no
I can't sleep
Oh no
I'm goin' crazy with love
Over you...
I need you,
To need me
I want to hold you
But you're holdin' someone else in your arms
When I close my eyes
I see your face
I'm just not sure
How much my heart can erase
Oh no
I can't think ooh....
Oh no
I'm goin' crazy with love
Over you
Oh honey

Oh My Lady (Barry Manilow)
Oh My Lady
Composer(s): Barry Manilow; Adrienne Anderson
Performer(s): Barry Manilow
First they told me
That they loved me
Dressed me up in the light of gold
All they wanted was to know me
Gotta get me on before I get too old
Then they told me I was big time
Lots of favors of limosine
This might be what they told me it would be
But I'm not sure it's what I need
Not what I need
Now, won't you tell me
Oh, my lady
Where's my lady
All this glory
Where's my lady
To share it with me
Oh, to share it with me
First they told me
I could love you
And then they told me never mind
Never mind
Gotta keep those cards and letters flowing in my friend
Gotta try and have a real good
Real good time
Now wouldn't you tell me
Oh my lady
Where's my lady
All this glory
Where's my lady to share it with me
Oh to share it with me
Now woun't you tell me
Oh where's my lady

Where's my lady to share it with me
To share, to share it with me
Oh my lady
