I'm Not A Know-It-All
I'm Not A Know-It-All
Composer(s): Buddy Kaye; Fred Spielman
Performer(s): Frankie Lymon & The Teenagers; Cecil Barber; Garland Jeffreys
I'm not a know-it-all
Don't know why the grass is tall
Don't know why there's morning dew
I only know that I love you
I'm not a know-it-all
Don't know why the raindrops fall
Don't know what's beyond the blue
I only know that I love you
With things that are not of you alone
I'm not so wise
And still I could write a book of my own
When I look in your eyes!
I'm not a know-it-all
Yet I know I'll run to you
The very moment that you call
I love you, know you know it all!

Everything I Own
Everything I Own
Composer(s): David Gates
Performer(s): Bread;
and various other artists
You sheltered me from harm
Kept me warm, kept me warm
You gave my life to me
Set me free, set me free
The finest years I ever knew
were all the years I had with you
Chorus:
I would give anything I own
Give up me life, my heart, my home
I would give everything I own
just to have you back again
You taught me how to love
What its of, what its of
You never said too much
but still you showed the way
and I knew from watching you
Nobody else could ever know
the part of me that can't let go
Chorus
Is there someone you know
you're loving them so
but taking them all for granted
You may lose them one day
someone takes them away
and they don't hear the words you long to say
Chorus
Just to touch you once again...

I'm Nobody's Baby
I'm Nobody's Baby
Composer(s): Benny Davis; Milton Ager; Lester Santley
Performer(s): Judy Garland
I'm nobody's baby, I wonder why
Each night and day I pray the Lord up above
Please send me down somebody to love
But nobody wants me, I'm blue somehow
Won't someone hear my plea and take a chance with me
Because I'm nobody's baby now
No, nobody's baby
And I've got to know the reason why
Last week I was walking down the street and met a boy and I said
"Hey, maybe I was meant for you"
But he only tipped his hat and shook his head
Kept on walking down the avenue
Oh, nobody wants me, I'm might blue somehow
Won't someone hear my plea and take a little chance with me?
Because I'm no-nobody's baby, I'm blue somehow
Won't someone hear my plea and take a chance with me?
There's no denying I'm crying
I'm lonesome on my own-some
I don't mean maybe, I'm nobody's baby!

Composer(s): Cole Porter
Performer(s): Glenn Miller;
and various other artists
If I were Lord Byron
I'd write you, sweet siren
A poem inspiring'
A killer diller ooh
Too bad, I'm no poet
I happen to know it
But anyway
Here's a roundelay
That I wrote last night about you
You are to me everything
My life to be, everything
When in my sleep you appear
Fair skies of deep blue appear
Each time our lips touch again
I yearn for you, oh, so much again
You are my favorite star
My haven in heaven above
You are everything I love

Don't care how you do it, babe, just so you please
Take my kisses till your weary heart's at ease

Everything I Know About The Blues
Everything I Know About The Blues
Composer(s): Delbert McClinton;
Gary Nicholson; Benmont Tench
Performer(s): Delbert McClinton
I learned to swim when daddy threw me in the river
The Army taught me how to shine my shoes
The years have shown me that nothin' lasts forever
But everything I know about the blues
I learned from you
I thought I'd seen my share of bad luck and hard times
But nothin' set me up for what you put me through
I learned a lesson that will hurt me for a lifetime
'Cause everything I know about the blues
I learned from you
I know that promises are things that just get broken
And you can't trust a woman's tears
And if love is what you place your hope in
All your hope may disappear
In certain circles I've aquired a reputation
But I give credit where credit is due
Yes it's true I got a first rate education
'Cause everything I know about the blues
I learned from you

So I won't crumble at your feet
And I know baby
So I've got scars upon my cheek
And I'm half crazy
Come on and love me baby
So you find me hard to handle, well I'm easier to hold
So you like my spurs that jingle and I never leave you cold
So I might steal your diamonds I'll bring you back some gold
I'm no angel
No I'm no angel
No I'm no stranger to the dark
Let me rock your cradle
Let me start a fire with your spark
Oh come on baby
Come and let me show you my tatoo
Let me drive you crazy
Come on and love me baby
So you don't give a darn about me
I never treat you bad
I won't ever lift a hand to hurt you and I'll always leave you glad
So I might steal your diamonds I'll bring you back some gold
I'm no angel
No I'm no angel
No I'm no stranger to the dark
Let me rock your cradle
Let me start a fire in your heart
Oh come on baby
Come and let me show you my tatoo
Let me drive you crazy
Come on and love me baby

I'm My Own Grandpaw
I'm My Own Grandpaw (aka I'm My Own Grandmaw)
Composer(s): Moe Jaffe; Dwight Latham
Performer(s): Lonzo & Oscar
and multiple other artists
It sounds funny, I know
But it really is so
Oh, I'm my own grandpa
I'm my own grandpa
I'm my own grandpa
It sounds funny, I know
But it really is so
Oh, I'm my own grandpa
Now many, many years ago, when I was twenty-three
I was married to a widow who was pretty as could be
This widow had a grown-up daughter who had hair of red
My father fell in love with her, and soon they, too, were wed
This made my dad my son-in-law and changed my very life
My daughter was my mother, cause she was my father's wife
To complicate the matter, even though it brought me joy
I soon became the father of a bouncing baby boy
My little baby then became a brother-in-law to Dad
And so became my uncle, though it made me very sad
For if he was my uncle, then that also made him brother
Of the widow's grown-up daughter, who, of course, was my stepmother
Father's wife then had a son who kept him on the run
And he became my grandchild, for he was my daughter's son
My wife is now my mother's mother, and it makes me blue
Because, although she is my wife, she's my grandmother, too
Now if my wife is my grandmother, then I'm her grandchild
And everytime I think of it, it nearly drives me wild
For now I have become the strangest case you ever saw
As husband of my grandmother, I am my own grandpa!
I'm my own grandpa
I'm my own grandpa
It sounds funny, I know, but it really is so
Oh, I'm my own grandpa

John Paul Jones; Albert Lee;

Well, I can't get along no matter what I do
Well, we can't get along no matter what I do
Yes, everything I do is wrong, no matter what I do
Well, let's make it up baby, try it just one more time
Well, let's make it up baby, try it just one more time
Well, if we don't get together baby, won't be no fault of mine
Lay it down
Alright then
Well, it's been a long time baby, but it's all over now
Oh, it's been a long time baby, but it's all over now
We can't get together, baby, you were no good no how

I'm Moving On
I'm Moving On
Composer(s): Yoko Ono
Performer(s): John Lennon
Save your sweet talk for when you score
Keep your Monday kisses for your glass lady
I want the truth and nothing more
I'm moving on, moving on you're getting phoney
You didn't have to tell a white lie
You knew you scored me for life
Don't stick your finger in my pie
You know I'll see through your jive
I want the truth and nothing more
I'm moving, moving on we're getting phoney
When you were angry you had love in your eyes
When you were sad you had dream in your voice
But now you're giving me your window smile
I'm moving on, moving on it's getting phoney
Moving on!

Everything Happens To Me
Everything Happens To Me
Composer(s): Tom Adair; Matt Dennis
Performer(s): Frank Sinatra;
and various other artists
I make a date for gown
you can bet your life it rains
Tried to give a party
But the guy upstairs complains
Guess I'll go through life
catching colds and missing trains
Everything happens to me
I never miss a thing
I've had the measles and the mumps
And everytime I play an ace
My partner always trumps
Guess I'm just a fool
who never looks before he jumps
everything happens to me
At first I thought that you would end this jinx for me
And love would turn the trick to end dispair
Now I just cant fool this head that thinks for me
I've mortgaged all my castles in the air
Well I've telegraphed and phoned
Sent an air mail special too
Your answer was goodby
There was even postage due
fell in love just once
And it had to be with you
Everything happens to me

I'm Moody
I'm Moody
Composer(s): Jack Fulton; Milton Samuels
Performer(s): Jack Jones
I'm moody, here I go again
Moody, why do I get so moody
At the sound of your name
Dreamer, am I only a dreamer
If I'm only a dreamer
Then my heart's unaware
It's a lost love affair
I tell myself there's no one else
Your heart is yearning for
Your lips are burning for
That we're not true
But then I panic at the thought
I may be losing you
And if I'm losing you
What will I do
I'm moody, here I go again
Moody, I will always be moody
It will cling like a vine
Till you say you are mine
Moody

Everything But You
Everything But You
Composer(s): Don George; Duke Ellington; Harry James
Performer(s): Duke Ellington;
and various other artists
You left me a horse from Texas
A house with installments due
A letter with lots of X-S
Everything but you
You left me some beans from Boston
A bicycle built for two
A memory to get lost in
Everything but you
Each day was so gay and so daring
I loved every breathtaking minute
for how could I know I was sharing
a kiss without a future in it
You left me a dream to room with
A coffee pot from Peru
A knife and fork to spoon with
Everything but you
You left me a horse from Texas
A house with installments due
A letter with lots of X-S
Everything but you
You left me some beans from Boston
A bicycle built for two
A memory to get lost in
Everything but you
Each day was so gay and so daring
I loved every breathtaking minute
for how could I know I was sharing
a kiss without a future in it
You left me a dream to room with
A coffee pot from Peru
A knife and fork to spoon with
Everything but you
Everything but you
You left me everything, everything but you

I'm Mandy, Fly Me
I'm Mandy, Fly Me
Composer(s): Kevin Godley; Graham Gouldman; Eric Stewart
Performer(s): 10 cc
Just like a rolling stone
I'm outside looking in
But if your chance came would you take it
Where on earth do I begin
I'm Mandy fly me
I've often heard her jingle
It's never struck a chord
With a smile as bright as sunshine
She called me through the poster
And welcomed me aboard
She led me she fed me
She read me like a book
But I'm hiding in the small print
Won't you take another look
And take me away
Try me Mandy fly me away
The world was spinning like a ball
And then it wasn't there at all
And as my heart began to fall
I saw her walking on the water
As the sharks were coming for me
I felt Mandy pull me up give me the kiss of life
Just like the girl in Dr. No No No No
Ah when they pulled me from the wreckage
And her body couldn't be found
Was it in my mind it seems
I had a crazy dream
I told them so but they said no no no no
I found me on a street
And staring at a wall
If it hadn't have been for Mandy
Her promise up above me
Well I wouldn't be here at all
So if you're travelling in the sky
Don't be surprised if someone said Hi
I'm Mandy fly me

Everyone's Gone To The Moon
Everyone's Gone To The Moon
Composer(s): Jonathan King
Performer(s): Jonathan King;
and various other artists
Streets full of people, all alone
Rows full of houses, never home
Church full of singing, out of tune
Everyone's gone to the moon
Eyes full of sorrow, never wet
Hands full of money, all in debt
Sun disappears in the middle of June
Everyone's gone to the moon
Long time ago, life had begun
Everyone went to the sun
Hearts full of motors, painted green
Mouths full of chocolate-covered cream
Hands that can only lift a spoon
Everyone's gone to the moon
Everyone's gone to the moon
Everyone's gone to the moon

I'm Making Believe
Composer(s): James V. Monaco; Mack Gordon
Performer(s): John Lee Hooker
and multiple other artists
I'm making believe that you're in my arms though I know you're so far away
Making believe I'm talking to you, wish you could hear what I say
And here in the gloom of my lonely room we're dancing like we used to do
Making believe is just another way of dreaming, so till my dreams come true
I'll whisper "Good night", turn out the light, and kiss my pillow
Making believe it's you
I'm making believe that you're in my arms though I know you're so far away
Making believe I'm talkin' to you, wish you could hear what I say
And here in the gloom of my lonely room we're dancing like we used to do
Making believe is just another way of dreamin', so till my dreams come true
I'll whisper "Good night", turn out the light, and kiss my pillow
Making believe it's you
And here in the gloom of my lonely room we're dancing like we used to do
Making believe is just another way of dreamin', so till my dreams come true
I'll whisper "Good night", turn out the light, and kiss my pillow
Making believe it's you

Everyone Gets Crazy
Everyone Gets Crazy
Composer(s): Kevin Welch
Performer(s): The Highwaymen
Look here is that you I see
You sure seem down to me
Would you like to tell it to a friend
I can help if anyone can
You know I understand
Everyone gets crazy now and then
Yes i know those empty nights get lonely
Sometimes you feel like you're the only one
To lose more then he wins
Guess these trouble times get scary
But that's just ordinary
Everyone gets crazy now and then (all together)
And who can say they've never stumbled
Never fallen to their knees
Your dreams like castles when they crumble
Well I know what you mean
And I know how hard it can seem
I get crazy just like you
Lost and lonely too
Like some old flag left flying in the wind
Time has taught me this for sure
Time itself is the only cure
All your blues will turn to gold again
Everyone gets crazy now and then
