The Horse Told Me
The Horse Told Me
Composer(s): Johnny Burke - James Van Heusen
Performer(s): Bing Crosby; Nat King Cole
In the big Handicap there's a positive snap
Go bet on a horse called 'The Sheik'
He'll walk off with the crown if he doesn't fall down
And, my boy, that's what happened last week
Oh, the Owner told Clarence the clocker
The clocker told jockey McGee
The jockey, of course, passed it on to the horse
And the horse told me
Tell the age of the beast by his teeth, and at least
His teeth in the paddock looked great
But this toothy old red had to sneeze in the stretch
And he won by the loss of a plate
Oh, the Owner told Clarencee the clocker
The clocker told jockey McGee
The jockey, of course, passed it on to the horse
And the horse told me
I once bet on a steed of phenominal speed
Boy, she was fast as Aunt Nell
But the judges they cried, "This one's disqualified!
There's a jet engine under her tail"
Oh, the Owner told Clarence the clocker
The clocker told jockey McGee
The jockey, of course, passed it on to the horse
And the horse told me
Tomorrow I'll bet just for kicks that I'll get
What's gold is just ol' yeller lead
I can lose with a grin, if the horse don't come in
I'll just blow a big hole in my head
Oh, the Owner told Clarence the clocker
The clocker told jockey McGee
The jockey, of course, passed it on to the horse
And the horse told me
I had put down a deuce on a tip that got loose
This horse in the paddock looked stunning
I had overheard talk he could win in a walk
And he could, but the others were runnin'
Oh, the Owner told Clarence the clocker
The clocker told jockey McGee
The jockey, of course, passed it on to the horse
And the horse told me
That's what he said!

Well, it's alright (Dionne: Yeah, yeah)

I feel good about you
I don't need another lover, no, no, no
Solo Spinner:
Woo-ooo-ooo-yeahhh
Baby, just let me tell you this
Both:
I'm satisfied in my heart
No looking back
I knew right from the start
I was on the right track
I searched for so long
For the right one
You know that I found
No greater love under the Sun
Oh yeah, others may come
And other lovers may go
All:
I don't need another love to call my own
And make sweet love to me
I don't need another love to belong
You're the love I need
Both:
Holding out (Spinner: Well) for the best
I did the right thing
I knew if I could only pass the test (Spinner: You did it)
True love it would bring
Now we stand (The Spinners: We stand) so strong
Like an oak tree
One love in a lifetime (Spinner: Yeah)
That will do it for me
Oh yeah, others may come
And other lovers may go
All:
I don't need another lover to call my own
And make sweet love to me
I don't need another lover to belong
You're the love I need
Both:
Woo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-oooo
Don't you know that storm clouds may rise
Strong winds may blow
Others may come
But they'll just have to go
The Spinners:
Don't need another love to call my own, no, no, no
And make sweet love to me (Dionne: Nooooooooooooh Baby)
I don't need another lover (Spinner: No, no, no) to belong (Dionne: No, no, no)
You're the love I need (Spinner: I believe your love)
Without you there's no real love
To keep me strong
And love me endlessly
Dionne:
I wanna be your fire
The Spinners:
Let me be your lover
Dionne:
Through the wind and the rain, through the dark of the day
The Spinners:
You're the love I need
Spinner:
I knew if I could just pass the test
The Spinners:
I don't need another lover
To call my own
Spinner:
We would have a love affair so much better than the rest
Ooooh, Baby
The Spinners:
And make sweet love to me ...

Long Live The Ladies
Long Live The Ladies
Composer(s): Joe Young - E. Ray Goetz - Geo. W. Meyer
Oh, bring on the ladies
"Hurry up," said Willie Snow
Go, bring on the ladies
For the party's getting slow
They soon brought up a few
One maid with eyes of blue
Was acting cute and cunning
Young Willie started humming
From the day of dimples, till the wrinkles trace your smile
Mothers, wives and sweethearts
Are what make your life worthwhile
If it was not for one
You wouldn't be here, son
So bear in mind you've got to
Live your life on this motto
Long live the ladies
May they all live long for me
Long live the ladies
They're as sweet as they can be
Oh, how I love to mix
With a perfect thirty six
If you think the girls are harmful
I'd like to be the pap of an armful
Long live the tall ones
They can never grow too tall
Long live the small ones
They don't have to grow at all
They're life's necessity
Like a lump of sugar in a cup of tea
Long live the ladies
The beautiful ladies for me

To Sing For You
Composer(s): Donovan
First release by: Donovan - 1965
Covered by multiple other artists
When you're feeling kind of lonesome in your mind
With a heartache following you so close behind
Call out to me as I ramble by
I'll sing a song for you
Thats's what I'm here to do
To sing for you
When the night has left you cold and feeling sad
I will show you that it cannot be so bad
Forget the one who went and made you cry
I'll sing a song for you
Thats's what I'm here to do
To sing for you
When you feel you just can't make it anymore
With your head bowed down you're staring at the floor
Search out to me with your weary eyes
I'll sing a song for you
Thats's what I'm here to do
To sing for you
Now every man he has his work you know
And to find out mine you ain't got far to go
Call out to me with your weary eyes
I'll sing a song for you
Thats's what I'm here to do
To sing for you

To See You Is To Love You
To See You Is To Love You
Composer(s): Johnny Burke - Jimmy Van Heusen
Performer(s): Bing Crosby
To see you is to love you
And I see you everywhere
In the sunrise in the moon glow
Any place I look you're there
To see you is to want you
And I see you all the time
On a sidewalk, in a doorway
On a lonely stairs I climb
Someday let me show you
How happy endings start
You'll find how well I know you
'cause to know you at all is to know you by heart
To see you is to love you
And you're never out of sight
And I love you and I'll see you
In the same old dream tonight
To see you is to love you
And you're never out of sight
And I love you and I'll see you
In the same old dream tonight

I Don't Love You Anymore
I Don't Love You Anymore
Composer(s): Bill Anderson
Performer(s): Charlie Louvin
I don`t love you anymore
not the way I did before
and since you`ve found someone new
I think it`s best
I don`t cry and walk the floor
I don`t love you anymore
Trouble is I don`t love you any less
I don`t love you anymore
for I`ve got no more love to give
you drained my heart of all its love
with every sweet caress
I keep sayin` o`er and o`er
`I don`t love you anymore`
Trouble is I don`t love you any less
I held you close to me one time
Kissed your lips and called you mine
But another came and thrilled you more, I guess
I cried as you walked out the door
`I don`t love you anymore`
Trouble is I don`t love you any less
I don`t love you anymore,
For I`ve got no more love to give
You drained my heart of all its love
With every sweet caress
I keep sayin` o`er and o`er
`I don`t love you anymore`
Trouble is I don`t love you any less

Composer(s): Donovan Leitch
Performer(s): Donovan;
Patrick Burke; Joel Grey; Jim Horn
Jennifer Juniper lives upon the hill
Jennifer Juniper, sitting very still
Is she sleeping? I don't think so
Is she breathing? Yes, very low
Whatcha doing, Jennifer, my love?
Jennifer Juniper, rides a dappled mare
Jennifer Juniper, lilacs in her hair
Is she dreaming? Yes, I think so
Is she pretty? Yes, ever so
Whatcha doing, Jennifer, my love?
I'm thinking of what it would be like if she loved me
You know just lately this happy song it came along
And I like to somehow try and tell you
Jennifer Juniper, hair of golden flax
Jennifer Juniper longs for what she lacks
Do you like her? Yes, I do, Sir
Would you love her? Yes, I would, Sir
Whatcha doing Jennifer, my love?
Jennifer Juniper, Jennifer Juniper, Jennifer Juniper
Jennifer Juniper vit sur la colline
Jennifer Juniper assise très tranquille
Dort-elle? Je ne crois pas
Respire-t-elle? Oui, mais tout bas
Qu'est-ce que tu fais, Jenny mon amour?
Jennifer Juniper, Jennifer Juniper, Jennifer Juniper

The Dicky Bird Hop
The Dicky Bird Hop
Composer(s): Ronald Gourley - Leslie Sarony
Performer(s): Gracie Fields
Oh, the chirruping of the birdies on the sycamore tree
They're lucky to be so happy and free
I know that the chirruping sounds a little different to me
I hear them saying early ev'ry morn, "Get up! Get up! Get up!"
The chirruping of the birdies on the sycamore tree
It's lovely to see them having a spree
A cheeky one this morning popped up on the sill and said
"Get out of bed!"
Hopping about, skipping about, flopping about
And nipping about the whole day through
And the funny little things they do
Oh, I know they would amuse you too
Flying a bit, doing a jig, looking for grit
Pecking a twig, their necks all screwed
And I seem to hear them say, "Get out of bed, shift your lazy head
Don't you know that Nippy want's his little piece of bread"
Aah-aah-aah-aah-aah-aah-aah-aaaaaaaaaaaahhhh
Aah-aah-aah-ahh-aah-aah-aah-aaaaaaaaaaaahhhh
Aah-aah, ah-aah, ah-aah, ah-aah, get out of bed!
Oh, the chirruping of the birdies in the sycamore tree
They're lucky to be so happy and free
I know that the chirruping sounds a little different to me
I hear them saying early ev'ry morn, "Get up! Get up! Get up!"
The chirruping of the birdies on the sycamore tree
It's lovely to see them having a spree
So off I went and threw a piece of bread upon the lawn
The bread was Gone! Gone! Gone! Gone!
The bread was gone!

I Don't Like To Sleep Alone
I Don't Like To Sleep Alone
Composer(s): Paul Anka
Performer(s): Paul Anka
I don't like to sleep alone
Stay with me
Don't go
Talk with me for just a while
So much of you to get to know
Reaching out touching you
Leaving all the worries behind
Loving you
My mouth on yours and yours on mine
Marry me
Let me live with you
Nothing's wrong and love is right
Like a man says in his song
Help me make it through the night
Loneliness can get you down
When you get to thinking no one cares
Lean on me
And I'll lean on you
Together we will see it through
No, I don't like to sleep alone
It's sad to think some folks do
No I don't like to sleep alone
No one does
Do you?
No, I don't like to sleep alone
It's sad to think some folks do
No I don't like to sleep alone
No one does
Do you?

Jennifer Jennings
First performance by: Louis Neefs - 1969
Londen-Stad lag stil te dromen in de zon
Van zee te dromen in de zon, rondom mij
Waar ik ging, langsheen de zomen van 't gazon
Stonden de bomen in de zon, er zalig bij
En toen kwam jij, Jennifer Jennings
En danste lief als de lente voorbij
Jij kwam, Jennifer Jennings
En blauwe ogen die lachten naar mij
Naar mij, alleen naar mij
Jij hebt mij toen meegenomen door de stad
Langsheen de dromen die je had, zacht als zij
En sindsdien keren m'n dromen telkens weer
Naar al die dromen van weleer, van jou en mij
En dan kom jij, Jenniffer Jennings
Zo fris en speels als de liefde zo blij
Want jij, Jennifer Jennings
Je bent precies wat ik droomde voor mij
Ja dan kom jij, Jennifer Jennings
En blauwe ogen die lachen naar mij
Maar jij, Jennifer Jennings
Je danste telkens en telkens voorbij
Voorbij, altijd voorbij
Steeds weer voorbij
Hopeloos voorbij

To Say I Love You
To Say I Love You
Composer(s): Harvey Averne - Raphael Pagan
Performer(s): Ralfi Pagan
To say I love you
It's a beautiful sound
Oh, the heavens must have sent you
And my love has been found
When you're near me
I feel so much joy
But when you're gone
I'm a sad and lonely boy
I think of you
When we're apart
And there is so much sadness in my heart
To say I love is all that I can do
Please say you love me
And oh, oh, don't say no
To say I love you
Is all that I can do
I think of you when we're apart
And there is so much sadness in my heart
To say I love you is all that I can do
Please say you love me
And oh, oh, don't say no
To say I love you is all that I can do
To say I love you is all that I can say
But to show you how much I love you
That's something I try to do each and every day
When you're in my arms, my body comes to life
And when we love, oh when we love
It's so nice
You know how much I love you, don't you honey
Without you, life is barely night and day
All work and no play
But that ain't the way
No it isn't
I said no it isn't, little girl
Oh little girl I love you
I love you 'cause you're fine

Covered by multiple other artists
The silicon chip inside her head
Gets switched to overload
And nobody's gonna go to school today
She's gonna make them stay at home
And daddy doesn't understand it
He always said she was good as gold
And he can see no reason
Cos there are no reasons
What reasons do you need to be shown
Tell me why
I don't like Mondays
Tell me why
I don't like Mondays
Tell me why
I don't like Mondays
I want to shoot
The whole day down
The telex machine is kept so clean
And it types to a waiting world
And Mother feels so shocked
Father's world is rocked
And their thoughts turn to
Their own little girl
Sweet 16 ain't that peachy keen
No it ain't so neat to admit defeat
They can see no reasons
Cos there are no reasons
What reasons do you need oh oh oh oh

Tell me why

Shoot it all down
And now the playing's stopped in the playground now
She wants to play with her toys awhile
And school's out early and soon we'll be learning
And the lesson today is how to die
And then the bullhorn crackles
And the captain tackles
With the problems and the how's and why's
And he can see no reasons
Cos there are no reasons
What reason do you need to die, die, oh oh oh
And the silicon chip inside her head
Gets switched to overload
