Girls Don't Nag Your Husbands
Girls Don't Nag Your Husbands
Composer(s): Davis; Taylor
Performer(s): Lonzo & Oscar
Girls don't nag your husbands
They are your pride and joy
You know before you hooked him
He was his mother's boy
She sacrificed her darling
That you might happy be
Girls don't nag your husbands
They must be weary free
Girls don't smoke cigarettes
He wants your love you know
And don't drink whiskey either
Just give your man a fair show
Your maw used to drink saspariller
Be careful how you act
If you want a cigarette
Just try some chewing wax
(Oscar what did your wife say to you the other night
When you got home late?
Oh Lonzo she really told me off
Did she sure enough?
She said:
(This part sped up)
But the most prominent color is a rose bouquet on a live __________
I've been wondering how it would look on a potted blue rug
Well they have a potted blue background with a floral patterned rug)
Don't call your husbands a hootenanny
Remember if you do
Some big old blonde hair flapper
With great big eyes of blue
Will gaze around and see him
And steal his love away
Oh girls don't nag your husbands
You'll never know such a day
Girls don't wink at other boys
Your husband won't like it you know
And don't throw kisses either
Just give your man a fair show
Don't do things to make your neighbors
Think your husbands an old hen-pecked
Now we're both married men, girls
So we know what a man expects
(Well looky there Oscar here comes your wife
Well so it is ain't it Lonzo? Yes sure, it is
Well hello there darlin'
(This part sped up)
But the most prominent color is a rose bouquet on a live __________
I've been wondering how it would look on a potted new rug
Well they have a potted blue background with a floral patterned rug)
Now we're both married men, girls
So we know what a man expects

M-o-t-h-e-r
M-o-t-h-e-r
Composer(s): Howard Johnson; Theodore Morse
I've been around the world, you bet, but never went to school
Hard knocks are all I seem to get, perhaps I've been a fool
But still, some educated folks, supposed to be so swell
Would fail if they were called upon a simple word to spell
Now if you'd like to put me to the test
There's one dear name that I can spell the best!
"M" is for the million things she gave me
"O" means only that she's growing old
"T" is for the tears she shed to save me
"H" is for her heart of purest gold
"E" is for her eyes with love-light shining
"R" means right and right she'll always be
Put them all together they spell Mother
a word that means the world to me
When I was but a baby, long before I learned to walk
While lying in my cradle, I would try my best to talk
It wasn't long before I spoke and all the neighbors heard
My folks were very proud of me for "Mother" was the word
Although I'll never lay a claim to fame
I'm satisfied that I can spell the name
"M" is for the mercy she possesses
"O" means that I owe her all I own
"T" is for her tender, sweet caresses
"H" is for her hands that made a home
"E" means ev'rything she's done to help me
"R" means real and regular, you see
Put them all together they spell Mother
a word that means the world to me

Girls Don't Like It
Girls Don't Like It
Composer(s): John O'Neill
Performer(s): The Undertones
Yeah I don't go for him do you ?
Here comes Eddie in a brand new car
Driving like that he won't get far
Kissing in the back seat all the way home
You can't do that if you're on your own
But what else can you do if the girls don't like it
Says he doesn't have nowhere else to go
No late night movies now on radio
Just a TV switched up really loud
Know what I mean it becomes part of the crowd
But what else can you do if the girls don't like it
If the girls want to know what were gonna do know
Always up to things they're not supposed to allow
Leading us on telling no
Making us stop instead of letting us go
But what else can you do if the girls don't like it

Bobby Vee & The Johnny Mann Singers - 1961
Covered by multiple other artists
My tears are fallin' 'cause you've taken her away
And though it really hurts me so
There's something that I've gotta say

Make sure you're thinking of her
In everything you say and do-o-o-o

Now don't you ever make her cry-y-y-y

If I'd been true, I know she'd never be with you
So, take good care of my ba-a-a-by
Be just as kind as you can be-e-e-e
And if you should discover
That you don't really love her
Just send my baby back home to me
Well, take good care of my ba-a-a-by
Be just as kind as you can be-e-e-e
And if you should discover
That you don't really love her
Just send my baby back home to me

Well, take good care of my ba-a-a-by
Just, take good care of my ba-a-a-by

Girls Can't Do What The Guys Do
Composer(s): Willie Clarke; Clarence Reid
Performer(s): Betty Wright; Dusty Springfield
The guys are gonna wander
Go out and play some times
But girls you must not let it get you down
Just take this advice I give you just like a mother
You try to match your guy just for two
Don't try to do the things that the guys do
Girls you can't do what the guys do, no
And still be a lady
Girls you can't do what the guys do, no
And still be a lady, no
And listen girls when you give your heart away
You can easily be hurt
And the least little wrong he does
Always seems like dirt
So take this advice I give you just like a mother
You try to match your man just for two
Don't try to do the things the guys do
Cause girls you can't do what the guys do, no
And still be a lady
Girls you can't do what the guys do, no
And still be a lady, no
When you put your faith in one guy
Sometimes he'll make you happy
sometimes he'll make you cry
But don't lose your self-respect
Trying to get revenge
Cause no matter how you do it
You'll lose it in the end
Cause girls you can't do what the guys do, no
And still be a lady
Girls you can't do what the guys do, no
And still be a lady, no

Performer(s): B.J. Thomas
Hello darlin', my it's good to hear you
I'm at the railroad station in St. Paul
How are all the folks, I'd love to see 'em

And I've been thinkin'
Ever since the train lest Montreal
Thought I'd always
Love this life I'm living
But now I know I love you most of all
Many times before
I know I swore
That I'd come home
To stay...
But it always seems
That the foolish dreams
And trains got in my way
Tomaorrow there will be snow in Minnesota
But I won't be around to watch it fall
I'll be heading for that old familiar station
Hopin' you still love me...most of all
Girl, you know I love you most of all
I miss ya, baby, most of all
I miss ya baby, most of all

Girls Can Get It
Girls Can Get It
Composer(s): Leslie Pearl
Performer(s): Dr. Hook
Girls have it made
Girls have more fun
Girls have their way
To get lovers anytime they want
Anytime she needs some lovin
Any time she just gives a sign
It won't take her long
To find a man to oblige
Guys got to plot
Guys got to plan
Guys got to lie, cheat, steal
Do anything he can
Anything to get her to love him
Anything to make her agree
That's the way it's been
Since Adam and Eve
Girls can get it anytime they want
Girls can get it where a man often won't
Everybody's always after
Some lovin now and then
A woman gets it faster than any man can
Girls can get it anytime they like
Girls can get it a fact of life
If she calls you for some lovin
In the middle of the night
She can get a man runnin
At the speed of light
We all look for love somewhere, sometime
Girls find it first
They find it morning, noon and night
And it's a wonder of nature
8th wonder of the world
That a man's got to chase her
If he's gonna get the girl
Oh when a woman wants love
A woman gets love
And it's for sure she's gonna find it
Before the sun comes up
Girls can get it, they pick and choose
Girls can get it, men are always in the mood
If she calls you for some lovin
In the middle of the night
She can get a man runnin
At the speed of light
Girls can get it anytime they like
Girls can get it a fact of life
Oh you know she'll find it easy
You know that she can
It's like givin a little water to a thirsty man

Take Care Of This House
Take Care Of This House
Composer(s): Alan Jay Lerner - Leonard Bernstein
Performer(s): Julie Andrews
and multiple other artists
Here in this shell of a house
this house that is struggling to be
falling through the hall
coming straight through the wall
is hope staring down at me
but there's nothing you can see
sadness will flow down a cheek
courage stand out like a tree
Joy, joy is as bright
as a comet in flight
but hope isn't easy to see
Take Care Of This House
keep it from harm
if bandits break in sound the alarm
Care for this house
shine it by hand
and keep it so clean
the glow can be seen all over the land
be careful at night
check all the doors
if someone makes off with a dream
the dream will be yours
Take Care Of This House
be always on call
for this house is the home of us all
Be careful at night
check all the doors
if someone makes off with a dream
the dream will be yours
Take Care Of This House
be always on call
for this house its the home of us all

You say my kisses are not like his

Who has fell
And who's been left behind
When you go your way and I go mine

Take Back Your Mink
Take Back Your Mink
Composer(s): Frank Loesser
Performer(s): Julie London
and multiple other artists
He bought me the fur mink five winters ago
And the gown the following fall
Then the necklace, the bag, the gloves, and the hat
That was late '48 I recall
Then last night in his apartment
He tried to remove them all
And I said as I ran down the hall
Take back your mink
Take back your pearls
What made you think
That I was one of those girls?
Take back the gown
The gloves and the hat
I may be down
But I'm not flat as all that
I thought that each expensive gift you'd arranged
Was a token of your esteem
But when I think of what you want in exchange
It all seems a horrible dream
Eek!
So take back your mink
To from whence it came
And tell them to alter and rise it
For some other dame
Take back your mink
Take back your pearls
What made you think
That I was one of those girls?
I'm screaming
Take back the gown
The gloves and the hat
I may be down
But I'm not flat as all that
I thought that each expensive gift you'd arranged
Was a token of your esteem
But when I think of what you want in exchange
It all seems a horrible dream
Eek!
Take back your mink
Those old worn out pelts
And go shorten the sleaves
For somebody else
Well, wouldn't you?

Girls
Girls
Composer(s): David Bowie; Erdal Kizilcay
Performer(s): Tina Turner
Girls, we come and we go
We kiss, come and we go
Like a breeze, brushing your cheek
Like pain, like the tears on a face
Girls, we come and we go
Like spirits, we vanish at dawn
My heart, suspended in time
Like you, vanish like tears in the rain
Girls, we take our loves away
Like spirits living so far away
Girls, pretending to break down and cry
Girls, whispering wind, what are we giving away
We used to be so happy
Remember, remember, so happy
I never knew how lonely
Could feel
