Keep Away From The Fellow Who Owns An Automobile


Keep Away From The Fellow Who Owns An Automobile
Composer(s): Irving Berlin
Performer(s): Ada Jones
There's a certain flirtin' man with money in the bank
The man I mean owns a machine, the kind you have to crank
His great delight is to invite a girlie for a whirl
In his machine and I just mean to kind o' warn each girl
Keep away from the fellow who owns an automobile
He'll take you far in his motor car
Too darn far from your Pa and Ma
If his forty horsepower goes sixty miles an hour say
Goodbye forever, goodbye forever
There's no chance to talk, squawk or balk
You must kiss him or get out and walk
Keep away from the fellow who owns an automobile
Mary White went out one night in Harry's new machine
They rode quite far when Harry's car ran out of gasoline
The hour was late and sad to state no gas could Harry get
The latest word I overheard is that they're walking yet
Keep away from the fellow who owns an automobile
He'll take you far in his motor car
Too darn far from your Pa and Ma
If his forty horsepower goes sixty miles an hour say
Goodbye forever, goodbye forever
There's no chance to talk, squawk or balk
You must kiss him or get out and walk
Keep away from the fellow who owns an automobile

When The Heartache Is Over


When The Heartache Is Over
Composer(s): John Reid; Graham Stack
Performer(s): Tina Turner; Vonda Shepard
Once in a lifetime you find
Someone to show you the way
Someone to make your decisions
And I let you lead me astray
Who did you think you were fooling
Said you were missing me blind
But the truth is I knew you were lying
You were using me time after time
chorus
When the heartache is over
I know I won't be missing you
Won't look over my shoulder
'Cause I know that I can live without you
Time to move on with my life now
Leaving the past all behind
I can make my own decisions
It was only a matter of time
Sometimes I look back in anger
Thinking about all the pain
But I know that I'm stronger without you
And that I'll never need you again
chorus
When the heartache is over
I know I won't be missing you
Won't look over my shoulder
'Cause I know that I can live without you
chorus repeat
When the heartache is over
I know I won't be missing you
Won't look over my shoulder
'Cause I know that I can live without you
When the heartache is over
I know I won't be missing you
Won't look over my shoulder
'Cause I know that I can live without you
Yeah I can live without you
Oh I can live without you

Ain't Nothing Like The Real Thing


Ain't Nothing Like The Real Thing
Composer(s): Nickolas Ashford - Valerie Simpson
First release by: Marvin Gaye & Tammi Terrell - August 1968
Covered by multiple other artists
Ain't nothing like the real thing, baby
Ain't nothing like the real thing
Ain't nothing like the real thing, baby
Ain't nothing like the real thing
I got your picture hangin' on the wall
It can't see or come to me when I call your name
I realize it's just a picture in a frame
I read your letters when you're not near
But they don't move me
And they don't groove me like when I hear
Your sweet voice whispering in my ear
Ain't nothing like the real thing, baby
Ain't nothing like the real thing
I play my games, a fantasy
I pretend I'm not in reality
I need the shelter of your arms to comfort me
No other sound is quite the same as your name
No touch can do half as much to make me feel better
So let's stay together
I've got some memories to look back on
And though they help me when you phone
I'm well aware nothing can take the place of you're being there
So glad we got the real thing
So glad we got the real thing
Ain't nothing like the real thing, baby
Ain't nothing like the real thing
Ain't nothing like the real thing, baby
Say it loud like you're proud
Ain't nothing like the real thing

Ain't Nothing 'Bout You


Ain't Nothing 'Bout You
Composer(s): Rivers Rutherford - Tom Shapiro
Performer(s): Brooks & Dunn
Once I thought that love was something I could never do
Never knew that I could feel this much
But this yearning in the deep part of my heart for you
Is more than a reaction to your touch
It's a perfect passion and I can't get enough
The way you look, the way you laugh
The way you love with all you have
There ain't nothing bout you that don't do something for me
The way you kiss
The way you cry
The way you move when you walk by
There's ain't nothing bout you (there ain't nothing bout you)
That don't do something for me
In my life I've been hammered by some heavy blows
That never knocked me off my feet
All you gotta do is smile at me and down I go
And baby it's no mystery why I surrender
Girl you got everything
The way you look, the way you laugh
The way you love with all you have
There ain't nothing bout you that don't do something for me
The way you kiss
The way you cry
The way you move when you walk by
There's ain't nothing bout you (there ain't nothing bout you)
That don't do something for me
I love your attitude, your rose tattoo, your every thought
Your smile, you lips and girl the list goes on and on and on
The way you look, the way you laugh
The way you love with all you have
There ain't nothing bout you that don't do something for me
The way you kiss
The way you cry
The way you move when you walk by
There's ain't nothing bout you (there ain't nothing bout you)
That don't do something for me
The way you look, the way you laugh
The way you love with all you have
Your dance, your drive
You make me feel alive
The way you talk, the way you tease
Right now I think you see
There ain't nothing bout you that don't do something for me

When The Earth Moves Again


When The Earth Moves Again
Composer(s): Paul Kantner
Performer(s): Jefferson Airplane
In golden Hannibal Carthage days marchin' onto Rome
knockin' on the door and findin' nobody home there
Rome she cut our army down and left them in the snow so now
I go to where I come from now I go home to the Sun
When the earth moves again
when the earth moves again my friend
let the lady ride on thru
when the earth moves again
Egyptian kings they sing of Gods and pyramids of stone
and they left the deserts clean and they left the deserts
golden and shinin' as a beacon for those that need a road
into the day and thru the night we go and find our way home
when the earth moves again
my love to all the people I leave behind
search out the new ground around you
when the earth moves again
your head can pull your lady around
and you can leave whenever you can and the ground
take what you and on the land sea foam glass is sand
if you've only lived on earth you've never seen the sun
or the promise of a thousand other suns that glow beyond here
and if you care to see the future look into the eyes
of your young dancing children don't be afraid of our ways
when the earth moves again
when the earth moves again
watch the lady ride and sigh
when the earth moves again
Moses Moses the red sea closes over you when you
least expect it to
when the earth moves again
when the earth moves again

When The Cactus Is In Bloom


When The Cactus Is In Bloom
Composer(s): Jimmie Rodgers
Performer(s): Jimmie Rodgers;
and various other artists
The cattle prowled and the coyotes howled
out on the Great Divide
I never done no wrong, just singing a song
as down the trail I ride
Rattle snakes rattle at the prairie dogs
you hear that mournful tune
It's roundup time away out West
When the cactus is in bloom
Daylight comes and the cowhand yell
they call out ev'ry man
I throw my saddle on my old cowhorse
and drink my coffee from a can
The sun goes down on the cattle trail
and I'm gazing at the moon
It's roundup time away out West
When the cactus is in bloom
We don't have cold weather
it never snows or rains
That is where the sunshine's best
out on the western plains
Some of the boys have gone away
but they will be back soon
It's roundup time away out West
When the cactus is in bloom
Daylight comes and the cowhand yell
they call out ev'ry man
I throw my saddle on my old cowhorse
and drink my coffee from a can
The sun goes down on the cattle trail
and I'm gazing at the moon
It's roundup time away out West
When the cactus is in bloom

After midnight, when the boys talk about the girls
Oh, my darlin', what do you say
Do you tell them that you love me
After midnight, when the boys talk about the girls
Oh, my darlin', do you tell them
Little secrets that you shouldn't
After midnight, when the boys talk about the girls
Do they say we won't last
As one week or two has passed
Do they keep tellin' you
That then we'll love somebody new
Oh, my darlin', don't believe them
That what I do when the girls talk about the boys
Oh, my darlin', don't believe them
That what I do when the girls talk about the boys
After midnight, when the girls talk about the boys

Ain't Nothin' But A Maybe
Composer(s): Nickolas Ashford - Valerie Simpson
Performer(s): Rufus & Chaka Khan; Ashford & Simpson; Diana Ross
Could it be that he's interested
Or am I just wanting it be so
Do I dare speak to him
Or should I let the moment go
Forget this hunger inside
Forget this hunger inside
Should I let the feelin' flow
Should I just let it flow
Ain't nothin' but a maybe?
Oh and baby, I sure would like to know
Could it be he's just friendly
And that's nothing to get excited about
On the other hand he could be answering
The good vibrations I'm sendin' out
Well I just don't know
What I really see in
Should I make a move
Or keep on daydreamin'
Ain't nothin' but a maybe
Oh and maybe baby, I sure would like to know
Wanna know? wanna know?
Could it be that he's interested
Or should I let the moment go and
Forget this hunger inside
Forget this hunger inside
Should I let the feelin' flow
Should I just let it flow
Ain't nothin' but a maybe?
Oh and baby, I sure would like to know
Repeat
Forget this hunger inside
Forget this hunger inside
Should I let the feelin' flow
Should I just let it flow
Ain't nothin' but a maybe
Ain't nothin' but a maybe

When The Bees Make Honey Down In Sunny Alabam'


When The Bees Make Honey Down In Sunny Alabam'
Composer(s): Sam M. Lewis; Joe Young; Walter Donaldson
I just feel like telling the world I'm happy and gay
I just feel like telling you why I'm feeling that way
This is just the time of the year when bees start to buzz
And I've got a bee in my bonnet, simply because
I will be the busiest bee that you ever knew
Sipping honey all thro' the day that's just what I'll do
When the bees are buzzin' away near some Rosemary
How I love to bumble around just take it from me
When the bees make honey down in sunny Alabam'
That's when I said, I'd be sending a telegram
Down to honey suckled home
Where my folks live all alone
They're like a pair of honey bees
In a honey comb
I'm gonna make a beeline straight for home
That's where I am
And I've a plan to buzz around with my honey lamb
Some Sunday afternoon
If I don't get stung, there'll be a honey moon
When the bees make honey, down in sunny
Oh! you Alabam'

Ain't None Of Your Business


Ain't None Of Your Business
Composer(s): Gene Simmons - Eric Carr - Vinnie Vincent
Performer(s): Kiss
Ain't here to tell, so get a grip
I ain't really what you think
I ain't guilty or innocent
Don't play a fool, don't turn your back
You ask me why, well listen Jack
You'd better practice what you preach
'Cause there ain't nothing you can teach me
Won't wear a target on my back
I won't stand for no third degree
I don't care what you think of me
I'll do as I like
I'll do as I please
Don't ask me why
They go to church, they go to school
Ain't none of your business
But I ain't nobody's fool
Ain't none of your business
Make a right, make a wrong
Ain't none of your business
Or I may sing a different song
Ain't none of your business
Don't try to label who I am
It's one thing you'll never understand
Just keep your thoughts to yourself
Don't play a fool, don't turn your back
You ask me why, well listen Jack
I'll do as I like
I'll do as I please
Don't ask me why
Bite off more than I can chew
Ain't none of your business
Don't tell me what to do
Ain't none of your business
They go to church, they go to school
Ain't none of your business
But I ain't nobody's fool
Ain't none of your business
They rule the world, they sell it whole
Ain't none of your business
They socialize, they live a lie
Ain't none of your business
Ain't none of your business

When The Angelus Is Ringing
When The Angelus Is Ringing
Composer(s): Joe Young; Bert Grant
Love time, love time can't you understand when it is love time
Birds sing bells ring, love just seems to ring with every chime
Ding dong dong ding, loves messages they bring
Two hearts true hearts all the world is full of loving sweet hearts
I'll bring the ring, to the pealing of each silvry chime
Ding dong dong ding, all nature seems in rhyme
When the angelus is ringing in the belfry on the hill
And the whirpoolwill is singing in the night, when all is still
I am waiting for the time when I can come to you and sing loves sweet song
While the silvry bells peal out their dong ding dong
Down the road of love we'll wander 'mid the violets perfume to the little cottage yonder
where we'll spend our honeymoon
And as we go through life from year to year
Cares and worries disappear, when the angelus is ringing, dear

Well, I'll be there the next time that you call
Well, let's not fuss and let's not fight
I'm sick and tired of sayin' goodnight
Well, let's make up and hold each other tight
We both know we're birds of a feather
Let's go into business together
We can start a business of our own
Nobody's business
Nobody's business
Nobody's business but my own
Nobody's business
Nobody's business
Nobody's business but my own

When That Man Is Dead And Gone
Composer(s): Irving Berlin
Performer(s): Al Bowlly;
and various other artists
When that man is dead and gone
When that man is dead and gone
We’ll go dancing down the street
Kissing everyone we meet
When that man is dead and gone
What a day to wake up on
What a way to greet the dawn
Some fine day the news’ll flash
Satan with a small moustache
Is asleep beneath the lawn
When that man is dead and gone
Satan, Satan, thought up a plan
Dressed as a man
Walking the earth and since he began
The world is hell for you and me
But what a heaven it will be
When that man is dead and gone
When that man is dead and gone
When they lay him twelve feet deep
I’ll be there to laugh, not weep
When that man is dead and gone
What a day to wake up on
What a way to greet the dawn
Satan’ll take him by the hand
To meet old Gerring, look what, man
When that man is dead and gone
When that man is dead and gone
Some fine day the news’ll flash
Satan with a small moustache
Is asleep beneath the lawn
When that man is dead and gone
What a day to wake up on
What a way to greet the dawn
When a certain man is dead and gone

When Sunny Gets Blue


When Sunny Gets Blue
Composer(s): Jack Segal; Marvin Fisher
Performer(s): Johnny Mathis
When Sunny gets blue, her eyes get gray and cloudy
Then the rain begins to fall
Pitter-patter, pitter-patter, love is gone so what can matter?
No sweet lovin' man comes to call
When Sunny gets blue, she breathes a sigh of sadness
Like the wind that stirs the trees
Wind that sets the leaves to swayin' like some violins are playin'
Weird and haunting melodies
People used to love to-o-o hear her laugh, see her smile
That's how she got her name
Since that sad affair she's lost her smile, changed her style
Somehow she's not the same
But mem'ries will fade and pretty dreams will rise up
Where her other dreams fell through
Hurry, new love, hurry here to kiss away each lonely tear
And hold her near when Sunny gets blue
Hurry, new love, hurry here to kiss away each lonely tear
And hold her near when Sunny gets blue
