Little Old Rag Doll
Little Old Rag Doll
Performer(s): Stuart Hamblen
Each night I'm lonely by the fireside
Alone with an aching heart
As I held in my arms
The dearest of charms
Just a little old rag doll
Yet the mem'ries it brings
Of days that are gone
Fills my heart with regret
For the court has decreed
That they take you from me
All I have is your little rag doll
Just a little old rag doll, dear
That you held in your baby arms
As you played 'round my knee
My darling of three
With your little old rag doll
Just a doll
Each night as I lay on my pillow
In dreams I see your blue eyes
You are smiling at me
My precious of three
Holding your little rag doll
When you grow up
To be a lady so grand
Some man's sweet loving wife
O, be true just to him
And then I'll be content
All alone with your little rag doll

Maker Of Islands
Maker Of Islands
Composer(s): Mike Heron
Performer(s): The Incredible String Band
I do my job and it's pleasing to me
I'm getting so I can sail upon the roughest sea
On the roughest sea I do alright
But when my work is over and done
I get to being a lonely one
I need someone to take the wheel at night
And someone to navigate 'til light comes
But most of all I need a maker of islands
Rested in the golden sunlight where the seas are kind
She could make me islands for my peace of mind
If I could only see her
Look into her eyes
Then I'd lie easy
I'd lie easy
I'd lie easy
In my soul

Little Old Lady
Little Old Lady
Composer(s): Hoagy Carmichael - Stanley Adams
Performer(s): Ray Noble
and multiple other artists
Little old lady passing by
Catching everyone’s eye
You have such a charming manner
Sweet and shy
Little old bonnet set in place
And a Smile on your face
You’re a perfect picture in your
Lavender and lace
Little bit of business here
Little bit of business there
Bet that you’ve been window shopping
All around the square
Little old lady, time for tea
Here’s a kiss, two or three
You’re just like that little old lady
I hold dear to me

and various other artists
Mmmmm Mmmmmm Make yourself comfortable

Take off your shoesies, dear
And loosen up your tie
I've got some records here
Let's try one on for size
I'll turn the lights down
While you make yourself comfortable, baby
We hurried through our dinner
Hurried through the dance
Left before the picture show was through
Why did we hurry through our dinner
Hurry through the dance
To leave some time for this
To hug-a hug-a kiss and so now
Mmmmm Mmmmmm Make yourself comfortable
Mmmmm Mmmmmm Make yourself comfortable
Mmmmm Mmmmmm Make yourself comfortable, baby

A Little More Time
A Little More Time
Composer(s): Harlan Howard
Performer(s): Harlan Howard
(With only a little more time)
Every once in a while there's someone
Whose life is like a comet flashin' across the sky
Men of great talent with things to tell us
And it seems like all too soon those kinds seem to die
Now Stephen Foster was one of these gifted people
His down to earth songs turned the whole world on
But then like most people who are sent here on a mission
All too soon young Stephen was gone
A little more time a little more time
Oh the songs he might have wrote
Tender words and pretty notes
With only a little more time
Another man I feel was sent here on a mission was John F. Kennedy
A man loved and respected by I guess just about everyone
And I suppose we were all guilty of takin' him for granted
His love for humanity and the many fine things that he done
Now he wanted this to be a better world
But all too soon this great man died
And as we gathered around our radios that afternoon
The whole world stopped a little while and it cried
A little more time a little more time
So much to do so little done
But the victories he might have won
With only a little more time
And looking back down the pages of history
The greatest influence for good there ever was Jesus
In spite of all the obstacles in his path
Look at the legacy of hope that he gave us
And as I look around me at those who live by his teachings
And bless the day of his birth
I can't help but feel this would be a whole lot better world
If he could have spent a little more time on this earth
A little more time a little more time
Peace on earth might really be
Today if only he
Just had a little more time

Make Your Own Kind Of Music
Make Your Own Kind Of Music
Composer(s): Barry Mann; Cynthia Weil
Performer(s): Mama Cass
and various other artists
Nobody can tell ya
There's only one song worth singing
They may try and sell ya
'Cause it hangs them up to see someone like you
But you've gotta make your own kind of music
Sing your own special song
Make your own kind of music
Even if nobody else sings along
You're gonna be nowhere
The loneliest kind of lonely
It may be rough going
Just to do your thing's the hardest thing to do
But you've gotta make your own kind of music
Sing your own special song
Make your own kind of music
Even if nobody else sings along
So if you cannot take my hand
And if you must be going
I will understand
You've gotta make your own kind of music
Sing your own special song
Make your own kind of music
Even if nobody else sings along
You've gotta make your own kind of music
Sing your own special song
Make your own kind of music

Little Miss Lonely
Little Miss Lonely
Composer(s): John Schroeder - Michael Hawker
Performer(s): Helen Shapiro
Oh I cried last night
How I cried last night
For I knew the warning you had given me last night
Now it’s over, yes it’s over
And my tears are all too late
I won’t sleep tonight
I won’t eat tonight
But the years filled with tears could not put this right
For I’ve lost you, I have lost you
Now I’m only Little Miss Lonely
A tear is such a very lonely thing
But crying is the only thing that I can find to do
Since I lost you
I am wiser now, so much wiser now
But my wisdom is the wisdom of a fool somehow
For I love you, I still love you
But I’m only Little Miss Lonely
A tear is such a very lonely thing
But crying is the only thing that I can find to do
Since I lost you
I am wiser now, so much wiser now
But my wisdom is the wisdom of a fool somehow
For I love you, I still love you
But I’m only Little Miss Lonely
For I love you, I still love you
But I’m only Little Miss Lonely

Make The Night Just A Little Longer
Make The Night Just A Little Longer
Composer(s): Gerry Goffin; Carole King
Performer(s): Tammi Terrell
My days are years 'cause I don't see my baby
Till the stars are in the sky
And every night when we can be together
Time just seems to hurry by
So Lord I'm beggin' you to make the night (just a little longer)
Make the night (just a little longer)
So I can kiss him (just a little longer)
And hold him tight (just a little longer)
You made the world the way you thought it should be
So won't you make the night a little longer for me?
My nights are warm, 'cause when he hugs & holds me
Everything just feels so fine
But Lord, you know, I hate to see the sunlight
Takes away that man of mine
So Lord I'm beggin' you to make the night (just a little longer)
Make the night (just a little longer)
So I can kiss him (just a little longer)
And hold him tight (just a little longer)
(Just a little longer, just a little longer)
So Lord I'm beggin' you to make the night (just a little longer)
Make the night (just a little longer)
So I can kiss him (just a little longer)
And hold him tight (just a little longer)
Then embrace his arms (just a little longer)
Capture all of his charms (just a little longer)
Please Lord, make the night

Little Miss Dangerous
Little Miss Dangerous
Composer(s): Ted Nugent
Performer(s): Ted Nugent
Little Miss dangerous
She makes her move at midnight
She’s got the magic touch
The little girl is dangerous
And just a bit too much
In the midnight hour
About the stroke of twelve
She’ll be stepping out
She’s gonna raise some hell
And it’s her move
She’s holding that wild card
Gotta make her move
She’ll make your life so hard
High heel sneakers
Head to toe in lace
Such a dangerous body
With a little girl's face
Little Miss dangerous
Little Miss dangerous to me
She’s my little Miss dangerous
Little Miss dangerous to me
Oh yes she is
Looking for trouble, looking for sex
Walking on the wild side, she’s so complex
She’s on fire, the heat is coming on
The girl's on fire, she burns all night long
High heel sneakers
Head to toe in lace
Such a dangerous body
With a little girl's face
Little Miss dangerous
Little Miss dangerous to me
She’s my little Miss dangerous
Little Miss dangerous to me
Oh yes she is
Little Miss dangerous
Little Miss dangerous to me
She’s my little Miss dangerous
Little Miss dangerous to me
Oh yes she is

Make The Music Play
Make The Music Play
Composer(s): Burt Bacharach; Hal David
Performer(s): Dionne Warwick
Make the music play
just a little slower, play a little slower
Let him hold me in his arms, a little longer
Make the music play
just a little softer, play a little softer
Let him hear me when I sigh, how much I love him
Make the music play
keep the magic going
keep the love-light glowing, within his arms
don't even skip a beat, or he may get away
And if we were parted, I'd be broken-hearted
till I'm in his arms to stay
Please make the music play
Let him hear me when I sigh, how much I love him
Make the music play
keep the magic going, keep the love-light glowing

The toast of old Broadway, uptown and down
Queen of them all, with a smile for a crown
Her two little feet on that fabulous street
Are the talk of the crowd
Everyone of them proud of Little Miss Broadway
Up on her toes with music and laughter wherever she goes
Everyone loves her and everyone knows
She's captured Manhattan from Harlem to Staten
And thousands applaud Little Miss Broadway

Make Room In The Lifeboat For Me
Make Room In The Lifeboat For Me
(Traditional)
I know I've been wicked and bad
I've sinned and I feel mighty bad
Now my ship's going down, rescue me or I'll drown
That I may repent and be glad
Make room in the lifeboat for me
Please don't leave me alone on the sea
Let me handle the oar to that beautiful shore
Make room in the lifeboat for me
I feel like a ship with no sail
That has stopped on the rock by the gale
And what's more I behold if you'll save my poor soul
As Jonah was saved by the whale
Make room in the lifeboat for me
Please don't leave me alone on the sea
Let me handle the oar to that beautiful shore
Make room in the lifeboat for me

Little Man, You've Had A Busy Day
Composer(s): Mabel Wayne - Al Hoffman - Maurice Sigler
Performer(s): Emil Coleman
and multiple other artists
Evenin' breezes sighin', moon is in the sky
Little man, it's time for bed
Daddy's little hero is tired and wants to cry
Now, come along and rest your weary head
Little man, you're cryin', I know why you're blue
Someone took your kiddy-car away
You better go to sleep now
Little man, you've had a busy day
Johnny won your marbles, tell you what we'll do
Dad'll get you new ones right away
Better go to sleep now
Little man, you've had a busy day
You've been playin' soldier, the battle has been won
The enemy is out of sight
Come along there soldier, put away your gun
The war is over for tonight
Time to stop your schemin', time your day was through
Can't you hear the bugle softly say
Time you should be dreamin'
Little man, you've had a busy day

Make Rock Not War
Make Rock Not War
Composer(s): Bob Halligan Jr.
Performer(s): Blue Öyster Cult
Moments of pleasure, in a world of pain
Working together, only to fight again
If we wait for the world leaders to decide, who will die first?
So don't wait no more!
Tell me, make rock not war! What are we dying for?
Rock not war! Nobody wins!
Rock not war! What are we trying for?
And the fools rush in, don't they
For the grand beginning of the end!
Pulses are racing
You know the blade may fall
Destinies tracing
I sing to a great star-fall
And you know there's a real answer, but they've already been told
We've heard our lies being cold!
Tell me, make rock not war! What are we dying for?
Rock not war! Nobody wins!
Rock not war! What are we trying for?
And the fools rush in, don't they
For the grand beginning of the end!
The hourglass turns over, and time is running low
Will the sandman's pollen bring sleep before we know?
Yeah, you know there's a real answer, and we've died more than been told
So don't wait no more!
Tell me, make rock not war! What are we dying for?
Rock not war! Nobody wins!
Rock not war! What are we trying for?
And the fools rush in, don't we
For the grand beginning of the end!
Make rock not war!
Make rock not war!
Make rock not war!
Make rock not war!
Make rock not war!
