All By Myself (Daryl Hall)
All By Myself
Composer(s): Alan Gorrie - Daryl Hall
Performer(s): Daryl Hall
I can see the anger
And I surely feel
All the passion, baby gone astray
Why are we divided
So dissatisfied
Does it matter what we do or say
I can’t see the wisdom
Never gonna give in
When the love is not so far away
I was hoping for more
I’m still hoping for sure
Isn’t anybody dreamin’
Isn’t anybody thinking
Or am I all by myself
Isn’t anybody teachin’
Why is everybody preachin’
Am I all by myself
Don’t you feel it lately
That you’re the only one
Who can see through bitter lies right here
Like everybody knows it
But no one seems to care
As if there’s something in the truth we fear
Aren’t you hoping for more
I’m still hoping for sure
Isn’t anybody dreamin’
Isn’t anybody thinking
And all by myself
Isn’t anybody lovin’
Isn’t anybody huggin’
Am I all by myself, tell me, tell me
Am I all by myself
All by myself
Come on everybody teach it with me
Am I all by myself
Don’t wanna be all by myself
Come on everybody preach it with me

Whispering Pines (Johnny Horton)
Whispering Pines
Composer(s): Howard Hausey
Performer(s): Johnny Horton;
and various other artists
The snowflakes fall, as winter calls
And time just seems to fly
Is it the loneliness in me
That makes me wanta cry
My heart is sad like a mourning dove
That's lost it's mate in flight
Hear the cooing of his lonely heart
Through the stillness of the night
Chorus:
Whisperin' pines, whisperin' pines
Tell me is it so
Whisperin' pines, whisperin' pines
You're the one who knows
My darlin's gone, oh, she's gone
And I need your sympathy
Whisperin' pines, send my baby back to me
See that squirrel up in the tree
His mate there on the ground
Hear their barking call of love
For the happiness they've found
Is my love still my love
Oh, this I've gotta know
Send a message by the wind
Because I love her sop
Chorus

All By Myself (Al Jolson & Bing Crosby)
All By Myself
Composer(s): Irving Berlin
Performer(s): Al Jolson & Bing Crosby
I'm all by myself in the morning
All By myself in the night
I sit alone in my cosy morris chair
So unhappy there
Playing solitaire
I'm all by myself and I get lonely
(He say's he gets lonesome by himself)
Watching the clock on the shelf
I'd like to rest my wearing head on Somebody's shoulder (Just lay it here)
I hate to grow older
All by myself

Whispering Grass (Don't Tell The Trees)
Whispering Grass (Don't Tell The Trees)
Composer(s): Fred Fisher; Doris Fisher
Performer(s): The Ink Spots;
and various other artists
Why do you whisper, green grass?
Why tell the trees what ain't so?
Whispering grass, the trees don't have to know, no, no
Why tell them all your secrets?
Who kissed there long ago
Whispering grass, the trees don't need to know
Don't you tell it to the trees
She will tell the birds and bees
And everyone will know
Because you told the blabbering trees
Yes, you told them once before
It's no secret anymore
Why tell them all the old things?
They're buried under the snow
Whispering grass, don't tell the trees
'cause the trees don't need to know
Monologue:
Now, don't you tell it to the trees
'cause they'll just run 'n' tell the birds and bees
Then everybody'd know 'cause you told them doggone trees!
Yes you did, you know you did, ya told 'em once before
Now look atcha, honey child, it ain't no secret no mo'
Why tell them all the old things?
They're buried under the snow
Whispering grass, don't tell the trees
'cause the trees don't need to know

All Because Of You (Cher)
All Because Of You
Composer(s): Jonathan Lind - Sue Shifrin
First release by: Cher - 1989
Sometimes
A heart has a mind of its own
Sometimes
I can tell myself
That I'm better of beeing alone
Sometimes
But this time
I can't hide from the thought of it
It's around every corner I turn
Right there in lights
In black and white
Staring at me...
It's all because of you
That I feel this way
All because of you
That my heart wants to break
If every other love can be forgotten
It's all because
All because of you
Tonight
I can't feel any magic inside
Tonight
'Cause I can't reach out for the stars
Looking up at the moon on my own
No signs of life
No nothin's right
Since you've been gone
It's all because of you
That I feel this way
All because of you
That my heart wants to break
If every other love can be forgotten
It's all because
All because of you
All because of you I can't sleep at night
Oh no! I can't sleep at night
And there ain't no rest
Living second best
Without your love
You don't know what it's like
To feel this way
All because of you
That my heart wants to break
If every other love can be forgotten
It's all because of you

Whispering while you cuddle near me
Whispering so no one can hear me
Each little whisper seems to cheer me
I know it's true dear....there's no one but you
I'm a singin'
Whispering why you'll never leave me
Whispering why you'll never grieve me
Whisper and say that you believe me
Whispering that I love you
Whispering while you cuddle near me
Whispering so no one can hear me
Each little whisper seems to cheer me
Just whispering that I love you

You start to light her cigarette
and all at once you love her
You've scarcely talked, you've scarcely met

You kiss goodnight and then you know
You'll kiss goodnight forever
You wonder where your heart can go
Then all at once you know

Whiskey, You're The Devil
Whiskey, You're The Devil
(Traditional)
Performer(s): The Clancy Brothers
Now brave boys, we're on the march
Off to Portugal and Spain
Drums are beating, banners flying
The Devil at home will come tonight
So it's go, fare thee well
With a too da loo ra loo ra doo de da
A too ra loo ra loo ra doo de da
Me rikes fall too ra laddie-o
There's whiskey in the jar
Oh, whiskey you're the devil
You're leading me astray
Over hills and mountains
And to Amerikay
You're sweetness from the Bleachner
And spunkier than tea
Oh whiskey you're my darling drunk or sober
The French are fighting boldly
Men are dying hot and coldly
Give every man his flask of powder
His firelock on his shoulder
So it's go, fare thee well
With a too da loo ra loo ra doo de da
A too ra loo ra loo ra doo de da
Me rikes fall too ra laddie-o
There's whiskey in the jar
Oh, whiskey you're the devil
You're leading me astray
Over hills and mountains
And to Amerikay
You're sweetness from the Bleachner
And spunkier than tea
Oh whiskey you're my darling drunk or sober
Says the old wan do not wrong me
Don't take me daughter from me
For if you do I will torment you
When I'm dead my ghost will haunt you
So it's go, fare thee well
With a too da loo ra loo ra doo de da
A too ra loo ra loo ra doo de da
Me rikes fall too ra laddie-o
There's whiskey in the jar
Oh, whiskey you're the devil
You're leading me astray
Over hills and mountains
And to Amerikay
You're sweetness from the Bleachner
And spunkier than tea
Oh whiskey you're my darling drunk or sober
Oh, whiskey you're the devil
You're leading me astray
Over hills and mountains
And to Amerikay
You're sweetness from the Bleachner
And spunkier than tea
Oh whiskey you're my darling drunk or sober

All At Once (Whitney Houston)
All At Once
Composer(s): Michael Masser - Jeffrey Osborne
First release by: Whitney Houston - 1985
Covered by multiple other artists
All at once
I finally took a moment
And I'm realizing that you're not coming back
And it's finally hit me all at once
All at once
I've started counting teardrops and at least a million fell
My eyes began to swell
And all my dreams were shattered all at once
Ever since I met you
You're the only love I've known
And I can't forget you
Though I must face it all alone
All at once I'm drifting on a lonely sea
Wishing you'd come back to me
And that's all that matters now
All at once I'm drifting on a lonely sea
Holding on to memories
And it's hurt me more than you know
So much more than it shows
All at once
All at once
I looked around and found that you were..
With another love
in someone else's arms
And all my dreams were shattered all at once
All at once
The smile that used to greet me
Brightened someone else's day
She took your smile away
And left me with just memories all at once
Ever since I met you
You're the only love I've known
And I can't forget you
Though I must face it all alone
All at once I'm drifting on a lonely sea
Wishing you'd come back to me
And that's all that matters now
All at once I'm drifting on a lonely sea
Holding on to memories
And it's hurt me more than you know
So much more than it shows
All at once ...

Whiskey, Johnny
Whiskey, Johnny
(Traditional)
O, whiskey is the life of man
Whiskey, Johnny!
I drink whiskey when I can
Whiskey for my Johnny!
Whiskey from an old tin can
Whiskey, Johnny!
I'll drink whiskey when I can
Whiskey for my Johnny!
I drink it hot, I drink it cold
Whiskey, Johnny!
I drink it new, I drink it old
Whiskey for my Johnny!
Whiskey makes me feel so sad
Whiskey, Johnny!
Whiskey killed my poor old dad
Whiskey for my Johnny!
Whiskey killed my poor old dad
Whiskey, Johnny!
And whiskey drove my mother mad
Whiskey for my Johnny!
I thought I heard the old man say
Whiskey, Johnny!
I'll treat my crew in a decent way
Whiskey for my Johnny!
A glass of grog for every man
Whiskey, Johnny!
And a bottle full for the chanteyman
Whiskey for my Johnny!
Whiskey up and whiskey down
Whiskey, Johnny!
And whiskey all around the town
Whiskey for my Johnny!
Oh whiskey here and whiskey there
Whiskey, Johnny!
Oh I'll have whisky everywhere
Whiskey for my Johnny!
Whiskey makes me pawn my clothes
Whiskey, Johnny!
And whiskey gave me this red nose
Whiskey for my Johnny!

All At Once (Cliff Richard)
All At Once
Composer(s): Cass - Myers
Performer(s): Cliff Richard & the Shadows
All at once, it's you, it's you for me
And all at once, there's blossom on each tree
It's so thrilling and so new to me
this enchantment that you do to me
and forever in your spell I'll be
All at once, my doubts and fears are past
I feel as though I've come back home at last
I thought I was fancy-free, till I felt this magic glow
Now, it's you for me and all at once I know
All at once, my doubts and fears are past
I feel as though I've come back home at last
I thought I was fancy-free, till I felt this magic glow
Now, it's you for me and all at once I know

All Around The World Or The Myth Of Fingerprints
All Around The World Or The Myth Of Fingerprints
Composer(s): Paul Simon
Performer(s): Paul Simon; Los Lobos
Over the mountain down in the valley
Lives a former talk show host
Everybody knows his name
He says there's no doubt about it
It was the myth of fingerprints
I've seen them all and man, they're all the same
Well, the sun gets weary
And the sun goes down
Ever since the watermelon
And the lights come up
On the black pit town
Somebody says what's a better thing to do
Well, it's not just me
And it's not just you
This is all around the world
Out in the Indian Ocean somewhere
There's a former army post
Abandoned now just like the war
And there's no doubt about it
It was the myth of fingerprints
That's what that old army post was for
Well, the sun gets bloody...
Over the mountain down in the valley
Lives tho former talk-show host
And far and wide his name was known
He said there's no doubt about it
It was the myth of fingerprints
That's why we must learn to live alone

Whiskey On A Sunday
Whiskey On A Sunday
Performer(s): The Dubliners
Chorus
Come day go day
Whishing in me heart it was Sunday
Drinking buttermilk all the week
Whiskey on a Sunday
He sits on the corner of Beggars Bush
Astride of an old packing case
And the dolls on the end of the plank were dancing
As the crooned with a smile on his face
His tired old hands from the wooden beam
And the puppets they danced up and down
A far better shwo you ever did see
In the fanciest theatre in town
But in 1902 old Step Daly died
His song it was heard no more
The three dancing dolls in the dust were thrown
And the plank went to mend the backdoor
But on some stormy night if you are passing that way
With the wind blowing up from the sea
You can still hear the song of old Step Daly
As he croons to his dancing dolls three

All Around The World
Composer(s): Titus Turner
First release by: Titus Turner - 1955
Covered by multiple other artists
Well, if I don't love you baby
Grits ain't groceries, eggs ain't poultry
And Mona Lisa was a man
All around the world I'd-a rather be a fly
I'll lite on my baby n' stay with her 'till I die
With a toothpick in my hand, I'd dig a ten foot ditch
And run through the jungle fightin' lions with a switch
'Cause you know I love you, baby
Yes, you know I love you, baby
Well, if I don't love you, baby
Grits ain't groceries, eggs ain't poultry
And Mona Lisa was a man
All around the world I got blisters on my feet
Tryin' to find my baby n' bring her home with me
You better run into me baby and be convinced
If you don't run into me, woman, you ain't got no sense
'Cause you know I love you, baby
Well, you know I love you, baby
Well, if I don't love you, baby
Grits ain't groceries, eggs ain't poultry
And Mona Lisa was a man
All around the world, I never will forget
Lost all my money, my woman and my pet
I got to have you baby, settle for nothin' less
Give up all my goodtime girls an' set'd for happiness
'Cause you know I love you, baby
Well, you know I love you, baby
Well, you know I want you, baby
Yes, your smilin' face is my heaven in life
Well, you know I love you, baby
Yes, you know I love you, baby
Ooh-ooh, you know I love you, baby
Yeah, you know I love you, baby
Well, if I don't love you, baby
Grits ain't groceries
Eggs ain't poultry
Mona Lisa was a man

Whiskey Man
Whiskey Man
Composer(s): John Entwistle
Performer(s): The Who
Whiskey Man's my friend, he's with me nearly all the time
He always joins me when I drink, and we get on just fine
Nobody has ever seen him, I'm the only one
Seemingly I must be mad, Insanity is fun
If that's the way it's done
Doctors say he just a figment of my twisted mind
If they can't see my Whiskey Man they must be going blind
Two men dressed in white collected me two days ago
They said there's only room for one and Whiskey Man can't go
Whiskey Man will waste away if he's left on his own
I can't even ring him 'cause he isn't on the phone
Hasn't got a home
Life is very gloomy in my little padded cell
It's a shame there wasn't room for Whiskey Man as well
Whiskey Man's my friend, he's with me nearly all the time
He always joins me when I drink, and we get on just fine
Just fine
