Road Without End
Road Without End
Composer(s): Ronald Stein
Performer(s): Randy Sparks
Looks like we're comin' into town
Seems like this train is slowin' down
Can't help but wonder what's in store
Could be I've been here once before
A-driftin'
The world is my friend
I'm travlin' along the road without end
Ridin' these rails town to town
Sometimes I think I'll settle down
But I know I'd hunger to be free
Rovin's the only life for me
A-driftin'
The world is my friend
I'm travlin' along the road without end

The Time Has Come
The Time Has Come
Composer(s): Les Vandyke
Performer(s): Adam Faith
The time has come for me to hang my head in shame
The time has come for me to say that I'm to blame
The time has come for love's return but it won't be the same
Oh please believe me I won't make the same mistakes again
The time has come to end this very sad affair
The time has come for you and I once more to share a summers kiss
But love's return won't ever be the same
Oh please believe me I won't make the same mistakes again
No more sorrows, no more cheating
Our tomorrows won't be repeating the past
So here am I to ask if you can still forgive
If you can love, the time has come for love to live
With no regrets, but take my word that love won't be the same
Oh please believe me I won't make the same mistakes again
Oh please believe me I won't make the same mistakes again

Come Rain Or Come Shine
Come Rain Or Come Shine
Composer(s): Johnny Mercer; Harold Arlen
Originally performed by: Ruby Hill & Harold Nicholas
Covered by various other artists
I'm gonna love you like nobody's loved you
Come rain or come shine
High as a mountain and deep as a river
Come rain or come shine
I guess when you met me
It was just one of those things
But don't ever bet me
"Cause I'm gonna be true if you let me
You're gonna love me like nobody's loved me
Come rain or come shine
Happy together, unhappy together
And won't it be fine
Days may be cloudy or sunny
We're in or we're out of the money
But I'm with you always
I'm with you rain or shine

Road To Rio
Road To Rio
Composer(s): Al Blake
Performer(s): Canned Heat
Well, I was livin' on the road
Couldn't get a decent meal
My baby, she gave me a dirty deal
Now I'm hitchhikin' on the road to Rio
Tryin' to flag a ride from an automobile
Won't somebody stop and let me ride?
Why don't you stop and let me ride?
Won't somebody let me ride?
I'm movin' on down the line
I'm standing on the road right by the side
Nobody knows how many tears I've cried
I've even thought about suicide
I guess it must be time to take a ride
Won't somebody stop and let me ride?
Why don't you stop and let me ride?
Won't somebody let me ride?
I'm movin' on down the line
Standin' on the road right by the side
Watchin' all the cars keep passin' by
The sun's goin' down, but I don't mind
I'm gonna catch a ride if it takes all night
Won't somebody stop and let me ride?
Why don't you stop and let me ride?
Won't somebody let me ride?
I'm movin' on down the line
Now it was 2:00 am and I was high and dry
This beautiful chick gave me the eye
She opened the door and I slid by her side
And we headed on down the line
I'm so glad she stopped and let me ride
Somebody finally let me ride
I'm so glad she stopped and let me ride
We're gonna boogie on down the line
Rio
One hundred miles ahead
We're gonna moving on down the line

Performer(s): Brook Benton
Knowing you stand by me through good and bad
Makes all the difference in my life
And day by day, sweetheart, I find
These are the ties that bind
The little things you do that please me so
Aww, the way you always understand
When simple joys bring peace of mind
These are the ties that bind
You're all I need to see me through
Can I say more than this, my love?
I live just for your kiss, my love
I live just for your kiss, my love
Forever and a day, my love will live
Mmm, the flame of love will never die
So heart and soul please say you're mine
Held by the ties that bind

Performer(s): Bing Crosby;
and various other artists
We're off on the road to Morocco

Off on the road to Morocco
Hang on till the end of the line (I like your jockey. Quiet)
I hear this country's where they do the dance of the seven veils
We'd tell you more (uh-ah) but we would have the censor on our tails (good boy)
We certainly do get around
Like Webster's Dictionary we're Morocco bound
We're off on the road to Morocco
Well look out, well clear the way, 'cause here we come
Stand by for a concussion
The men eat fire, sleep on nails and saw their wives in half
It seems to me there should be easier ways to get a laugh
(shall I slip on my big shoes?)
Off on the road to Morocco
Hooray! Well blow a horn, everybody duck
Yeah. it's a green light, come on boys
We may run into villains but we're not afraid to roam
Because we read the story and we end up safe at home (yeah)
Certainly do get around
Like Webster's Dictionary we're Morocco bound
We certainly do get around
Like a complete set of Shakespeare that you get
in the corner drugstore for a dollar ninety-eight
We're Morocco bound
Or, like a volume of Omar Khayyam that you buy in the
department store at Christmas time for your cousin Julia
We're Morocco bound
(we could be arrested)

Have you ever been driving down the road
And come up on a fella who was just poking along
Straddlin' the white line

This is a story about him and his eventual end
Well me and my buddy went a ridin' last night

He passed us a goin' bout a hundred I guess
And then he slowed down to twenty or less

I tooted my horn and I started to pass
I blinked my lights and I started to pass
And then that Road Hog stepped on the gas
Road Hog beep beep do do do do
Road Hog beep beep do do do do
You'd better get him up some money for bail
You'd better get him up some money for bail
Cause tomorrow morning he will be in jail
Road Hog beep beep do do do do
Road Hog beep beep do do do do
The boys will have him in the morning behind bars
The boys will have him in the morning behind bars
Cause I'm the County Sheriff in my unmarked car ha ha ha

The Three B's
The Three B's
Composer(s): Hugh Martin - Ralph Blane
Performer(s): June Allyson, Victoria Schools & Nancy Walker
and multiple other artists
Gloria:
I never wanna hear Johann Sebastian Bach
June:
And I don't wanna listen to Ludwig Beethoven
Nancy:
And I don't give a hoot for ol' Johannes Brahms
All:
The B's we want are these, the B's we want are these
June:
They're the barrelhouse, the boogie-woogie
Gloria:
And the blues
All:
Yes, the barrelhouse, the boogie-woogie and the blues!
June:
Oh, the barrelhouse makes you want to carouse
Nancy:
Every boogie beat will raise your heat
Gloria:
When they start to play the blues
All:
You'll never choose to lose the blues
Gloria:
Oh, the blues will really get you
June:
And the barrelhouse is bound to upset you
Nancy:
And the boogie-woogie beat will drive you straight to distraction
Hey, let's go professor, get a solid reaction!
From a barrelhouse, the boog-boog-boog-boog boogie and the blues
All:
Yes, the barrelhouse, yeah, the boogie-woogie and the blues
All:
When a Dixieland band gets up on the stand
You'll hear the trombones slide and start to ride
So make 'em play those dirty
Dirty hurdy-gurdy barrelhouse, boogie and blues
The barrelhouse, boogie and blues
The barrelhouse, the boogie-woogie and the blues
We're up a tree now, we don't know which to choose
The barrelhouse, the boogie-woogie or the blues
Nancy:
I love the boogie 'cos it tickles my spine
I love the boogie 'cos it's fresh and it's fine
Just like a cigarette with modern design
That's why I love the boogie-woogie (Yes! Yes!)
It seems to knock the wind right out of my chest
It's so darn good it makes a fool of the rest
Just goes to show you that the boogie's the best
That's why I love the boogie-woogie (Yes! Yes!)
It's right as rain, low as a thunder
Light as a cloud, sweet as a cake
It's got a kick like mountain liquor
And it's as slick and hard to take as Veronica Lake
It picks you up and then knocks you right down
It makes you laugh and play and act like a clown
No other music has the right to the crown
'Cos there's nothing that will raise your heat
Like the boogie-woogie beat
June:
Don't mean the barrelhouse
Nancy:
Like the boogie-woogie beat
Gloria:
Don't mean the blues
Nancy:
I love the boogie-woogie beat!
Gloria:
I love the boogie too, but not when I'm feeling blue
I get the blues in the mornin', the blues at night
I even get the blues when I'm feelin' all right
'Cos it sounds so good and it feels so good
And it is so good, my best jazz music there is
June:
I love the blues as well, but not when I'm feeling swell
When I'm feeling kind of chummy and I wanna join the scrummy
I go barrelhouse, barrelhouse
The atmosphere is squalid, but the band is really solid
They play barrelhouse, barrelhouse, they really go to town
The beat is steady as a rock there
They play till five or six o'clock there
You'll be mighty glad you found 'em
It's great to be around 'em
Oh they sock it, beat it, kill it
The barrelhouse will make you hot on jazz
All:
It's the barrelhouse, the boogie-woogie and the blues
That's the barrelhouse, the boogie-woogie and the blues
Talkin' about those three B's
Talkin' about those three B's
Talkin' about those three B's
One, two, three B's
One, two, one-two-three B's
