When I Kissed That Girl Good-Bye
When I Kissed That Girl Good-Bye
Composer(s): Little Jack Little
Performer(s): Leon Redbone
Now Little Willie Hubble, well he had a lot of trouble
In breaking off a certain love affair
Well he fin'ly did it, and I must admit it
Was a laugh when I heard him declare
I kissed her in the merry month of May
And I kissed her in the middle of July
Well I kissed her in the Fall but the best kiss of them all
Was the day when I kissed that girl good-bye
I kissed her on the road to Mandalay
And I kissed her in the streets of old Shanghai
But I got the biggest thrill in the town of old Seville
On the day when I kissed that gal good-bye
I kissed her in a rented Chevrolet
And I kissed her in a car she made me buy
Well I kissed her in a Ford but the day I thanked the lord
Was the day when I kissed that girl good-bye
Well I kissed her where they sing old fashioned songs
And I kissed her where they hi dee hi dee hi!
I could never sing a tune but the day I learned to croon
Was the day when I kissed that girl good-bye
I kissed her where the sea is deep and blue
And I kissed her where the rivers all run dry
I kissed her on the lake but the day I got my break
Was the day when I kissed that girl good-bye
I kissed her where the roses kiss the ground
And I kissed her where the mountains kiss the sky
Well I kissed her in the west but the kiss that I like best
Was the day when I kissed that girl good-bye

Ahab, The Arab
Ahab, The Arab
Composer(s): Ray Stevens
Performer(s): Ray Stevens;; Kinky Friedman; Phil Vassar
Let me tell you about Ahab, The Arab
The sheik of the burning sands!
He had emeralds and rubies just a-drippin' off 'a him
And a ring on every finger of his hand!
He wore a big ol' turban wrapped around his head
And a scimitar by his side
And every evenin', about midnight
He'd jump on his camel named Clyde...
And ride, silently through the night to the sultan's tent
Where he would secretly meet up with Fatima of The Seven Veils
The swingingest number one choice dancer
In The Sultan's whole harem!
'Cause, like him and her had a thing goin', you know
And they'd been carryin' on for some time now behind The Sultan's back!
And you could hear him talk to his camel
As he rode out across the dunes
His voice would cut through the still night desert air,
And he'd say... (imitate Arabic speech)
Which is Arabic for, "Whoa, babies!"
And Clyde'd say... (imitate camel braying)
Well, he brought his camel to a screechin' halt (imitate screech)
In the rear of Fatima's tent
Jumped off Clyde, snuck around the corner
And into the tent he went
There he saw Fatima layin' on a zebra skin rug
With rings on her fingers
And bells on her toes and a bone in her nose, ho ho!
There she was, friends and neighbors, layin' there in all her radiant beauty
Eating on a raisin, and a grape, and an apricot, and a pomegranate
A bowl of chitterlings, two bananas, three Hershey bars
And sipping on an R-O-C-coke-cola, listenin' to her transistor
Watchin' The Grand Ole Opry
And readin' Mad Magazine while she sung "Does Your Chewing Gum Lose It's Flavor?"!
And Ahab walked up to her and he say (imitate Arabic speech)
Which is Arabic for, "Let's twist again like we did last summer, baby!"
And she say, "ha ha ha...crazy, baby!"
('Round and around and around and around
And around and around and around!)
All of a sudden, The Sultan walked in!!
Ahab knew that this was the end!!
Him and Fatima was caught by surprise
And the sultan had fire flashin' out of his eyes!!
Well, The Sultan charged at Ahab
Intending to make a dent
In his head, but he fled with Fatima
And out of the tent they went!
They jumped on Clyde and started to ride
Cuttin' out across the sand!
With The Sultan's whole army in a hot pursuit
On and on they ran!
Well, to make a long story short
They got away, 'cause there weren't no animal alive
What could keep up with Clyde once he got started
'Cause he was the swiftest steed on the whole desert babies!
And they made it across the border
Where he half-hocked all his rubies and emeralds
And he bought 'em a swanky little split-level pad
And lived happi'y ever after!
Yeah, and that's the story 'bout Ahab, The Arab
The sheik of the burnin' sands!
Ahab The Arab, the swingin' sheik of the burnin' sands! ...

Baby, when I get home

When I Fall In Love
When I Fall In Love
Composer(s): Edward Heyman; Victor Young
Performer(s): Doris Day;
and various other artists
Maybe I'm old fashioned, feeling as I do
Maybe I am living in the past
But when I meet the right one
I know that I'll be true
My first love will be the last
When I fall in love it will be forever
Or I'll never fall in love
In a restless world like this is
Love is ended before it began
And too many moonlight kisses
Seem to cool in the warmth of the sun
When I give my heart it will be completely
Or I'll never, never, never give my heart
And the moment I can feel that you feel that way too
Is when I give my heart to you
And the moment I can feel that you feel that way too
Is when I give my heart to you

Twinkle, twinkle, little star
How I wonder what you are
Up above the world so high
Like a diamond in the sky
Twinkle, twinkle, little star
How I wonder what you are!
When the blazing sun is gone
When he nothing shines upon
Then you show your little light
Twinkle, twinkle, all the night
Twinkle, twinkle, little star
How I wonder what you are!
Then the traveler in the dark
Thanks you for your tiny spark
He could not see which way to go
If you did not twinkle so
Twinkle, twinkle, little star
How I wonder what you are!

When I Dream Of Old Erin (I'm Dreaming Of You)
When I Dream Of Old Erin (I'm Dreaming Of You)
Composer(s): Marvin Lee; Leo Friedman
When the nightingale's singing its sweet melodies
And the scent of the flowers perfumes the night breeze
Then I dream of my old home far over the sea
By the Lake of Kilarney
Where I long to be
And I see you, it seems, waiting there on the shore
Where together we stray'd in the sweet days of yore
I am thinking, tonight, of my Colleen so true
When I dream of Old Erin, I'm dreaming of you
I can see the old cottage, just o'er the hill there
'Tis those fond recollections bring happiness rare
Sure the lassie I love with a heart that is true
She is waiting for someone
While someone waits too
And my love's growing stronger each day, more and more
'Tis the same old love story that's told o'er and o'er
So, -cush-la my Colleen, it seems that you knew
When I dream of Old Erin, I'm dreaming of you
When I dream of old Erin I'm dreaming of you
With your sweet, roguish smile and your true eyes of blue
For my love, like the Shamrock, each day stronger grew
When I dream of Old Erin, I'm dreaming of you

When I Dream
When I Dream
German Title: Wenn Ich Träum
Composer(s): Sandy Mason-Theoret
Performer(s): Crystal Gayle;
and various other artists
I could have a mansion that is higher than the trees
I could have all the gifts I want and never ask please
I could fly to Paris, oh, it's at my beck and call
Why do I go through life with nothing at all?
But when I dream, I dream of you
Maybe someday you will come true
I can be the singer or the clown in every room
I can even call someone to take me to the moon
I can put my makeup on and drive the men insane
I can go to bed alone and never know his name
But when I dream, I dream of you
Maybe someday you will come true
But when I dream, I dream of you
Maybe someday you will come true

Ah! Sweet mystery of life
At last I've found thee
Ah! I know at last the secret of it all
All the longing, seeking, striving, waiting, yearning
The burning hopes, the joy and idle tears that fall!
For 'tis love, and love alone, the world is seeking
And 'tis love, and love alone, that can repay!
'Tis the answer, 'tis the end and all of living
For it is love alone that rules for aye!
Love, and love alone, the world is seeking
For 'tis love, and love alone, that can repay!
'Tis the answer, 'tis the end and all of living
For it is love alone that rules for aye!

When I Die
When I Die
Composer(s): William Smith; Steve Kennedy
Performer(s): Motherlode
When I die, I hope to be a better man than you thought I´d be
It´s been hard to make you see
What kind of man I´m trying to be
All I ask for you to try to understand
what it means to me
It´s not hard to understand why
You get discouraged all the time
I keep trying not to worry
But I can´t help feeling lost in you
But I love you, want you and I need you
Time goes by and you´ll find that we´ll
achieve a love sublime
When I die I hope I´ll be the kind of man
you thought I´d be
(Repeat Chorus)
Cause I love you and I want you
Cause I gotta, gotta have you
Cause, cause I need you
When I die, I hope I´ll be the kind of man
that you thought I´d be
