Everybody's On Their Way To Jersey
Everybody's On Their Way To Jersey
Composer(s): Garfield Kilgour;
Harry Akst; Lou Handman
There's a certain little State
No one thought was up to date
Jokes about it made a lot of fun
But folks are getting hunches
Going there in bunches
A mighty mob has started on the run
Tho' small in size that state is wise nobody hesitates
It's population soon will be the whole United States
People living there are fine
Each one has a friend named "Stein"
Anderson had better watch his step
The cops are in a fury
Each kitchen is a brewery
They brew those hops that fill you full of pep
From California Massachusetts, people far and near
A train they take to join the wake, and gather 'round the 'bier'
Everybody's on their way to Jersey
Everybody's going there to stay
And it's not the air
That they're going over there
There is something doing something brewing
OH! BOY! buckets of joy
Three and a half percent in dear old Jersey
Is not the dividends the bankers pay
Just hop on a train and tell the man
that you want to go where they rush the can
For everybody's on their way to Jersey

Composer(s): Jararaca Paiva; Vicente Paiva
Performer(s): Carmen Miranda
Mamãe eu quero, mamãe eu quero
Mamãe eu quero mamar!
Dá a chupeta, dá a chupeta, ai, dá a chupeta
Dá a chupeta pro bebê não chorar!
Dorme filhinho do meu coração
Pega a mamadeira em vem entra no meu cordão
Eu tenho uma irmã que se chama Ana
De piscar o olho já ficou sem a pestana
Eu olho as pequenas, mas daquele jeito
E tenho muita pena não ser criança de peito
Eu tenho uma irmã que é fenomenal
Ela é da bossa e o marido é um boçal

And I hear that Paul McCartney drives a Rolls Royce car
And Dylan sings for millions

Oh, everybody's makin' it big but me
Everybody's makin' it big but me
Neil Diamond sings for diamonds
And here's ole rhinestone me
Oh, everybody's makin' it big but me
Well, I hear that Alice Cooper's got a foxy chick
To wipe off his snake, keep him rich
And Elton John's got two fine ladies
And Doctor John's got three
And I'm still seein' them same old sleezoes
That I used to see
Oh, everybody's makin' it big but me
Everybody's makin' it big but me
I've got charisma
And personality
How come everybody's makin' it big but me?
Well, I paint my face with glitter
Just like Bowie does
And I wear the same mascara
That Mick Jagger does
And I even put some lipstick on
That just hurt my dad and mom
Everybody's makin' it big but me
They got groupies for their bands
And all I got is my right hand
And everybody's makin' it big but me

I'm Leaning On A Lamppost
I'm Leaning On A Lamppost
Performer(s): Herman's Hermits
I'm leaning on a lamppost
At the corner of the street
In case a certain little lady comes by
Oh me! Oh my!
I hope the little lady comes by
I don't know if she'll get away
She doesn't always get away
But anyhow I know that she'll try
Oh me, oh my!
I hope the little lady comes by
There's no other girl I would wait for
But this one I'd break any date for
I don't want to ask what she's late for
She wouldn't leave me flat
She's not a girl like that
She's absolutely beautiful
And marvellous and wonderful
And anyone can understand why
I'm leaning on a lamppost
At the corner of the street
In case a certain little lady passes by

Everybody's Got The Right To Love
Everybody's Got The Right To Love
Composer(s): Lou Stallman
Performer(s): The Supremes
When you're alone and in a corner
Your only mourner is the face that
Appears in the nearest mirror
You gotta get it going and somehow knowing you
You're gonna have it better than you ever had it
Everybody needs somebody
Everybody's got the right to love
If you could give in for a minute
And put your soul in it
We could get it on together and forever love it
so what's the use of running
You know there ain't no fun in running
And boy you need somebody, somebody to love you
'Cause everybody needs somebody
Everybody's got the right to love
You can have all the things that you desire
But without love you just can't survive
You need love to warm your heart at night
When you're all alone and no comfort's in sight
Everybody needs somebody
Everybody's got the right to love

A very important date
No time to say hello, good-bye

My fuzzy ears and whiskers
Took me too mych time to shave
I run and then I hop, hop, hop
I wish that I could fly

Stop and here's a reason why
I'm over-due, I'm in a rabbit stew
Can't even say good-bye

Everybody's Got A Mountain To Climb
Everybody's Got A Mountain To Climb
Composer(s): Dickey Betts
Performer(s): The Allman Brothers Band
Everybody's got a mountain to climb
This road we travel gets a little tough sometimes
Sometimes I know you feel like you can't go on
Need somebody help you get back home
Need a friend to help you find your way home
Reverend Pearly Brown say there's peace out on the water at night
Big sun going down, Lord it's a pretty sight
Red and blue across the water makes a wonderful song
Listen to it all night long
Everybody's got a mountain to climb
Don't be discouraged when the sun don't shine
Gotta keep on pulling, you gotta keep on tryin'
Everybody's got a mountain to climb
Everybody's got a mountain to climb
Who'd cross the face of a little smilin' child?
Take away the loser's one last chance?
Who wouldn't linger down by the old river for a while?
You know the whole world loves you when you're dancin'
So, hey let me tell you what I'm talkin' about
You can't go around with your lip stuck out
Life ain't all good but it sure ain't bad
Anyway it's the best old life I ever had
Everybody's got a mountain to climb
Don't be discouraged when the sun don't shine
Gotta keep on pulling, you gotta keep on tryin'
Everybody's got a mountain to climb
Everybody's got a mountain to climb
Don't be discouraged when the sun don't shine
Gotta keep on pulling, you gotta keep on tryin'
Everybody's got a mountain to climb

Performer(s): Dean Martin
and multiple other artists
You are my destination
I have to call
'cause you have so much on the ball
Ah you hit the spot
Like the first embrace with a modest tide
Well you hit the spot
Like pipe and slippers by the fireside
Matter of factly don't know exactly what it is that you've got
But you hit the spot
You hit the spot
Like a balmy breeze on a night in May
You hit the spot
Like a cool mint julep on a sunny day
You hit the spot
In my estimation ....

Everybody's Got A Home But Me
Composer(s): Oscar Hammerstein II; Richard Rodgers
Performer(s): Eddie Fisher;
and various other artists
Scooted out of Frisco over Route 101
Got a hitch as far as San Jose
Rode aboard a Greyhound till I ran outta dough
Bid the bus goodbye at Monterey
But I seen a lot of things along the way
And I did a lot of thinkin' on the way
I rode by a house
With the windows lighted up
Lookin' pretty as a Christmas tree
And I said to myself
As I rode by myself
Everybody's got a home but me
I rode by a house
Where the moon was on the porch
And the girl was on her fella's knee
And I said to myself
As I rode by myself
Everybody's got a home but me
I am free and I'm happy
To be free
(To be free)
(To be free)
To be free in the way
I wanna be
(Wanna be)
(Wanna be)
But once in a while
When I'm talkin' to myself
And there's no one there to disagree
I look up and I cry
To a big empty sky
Won't there ever be
A home for me somewhere
Everybody's got a home but me

I'm searching for those party lights
Where everybody's having a good time

You looked that day
When our love it was new
And if I saw you again
Somehow I'd just have to say
Sometimes you're just too plain to see

You had to say something
You waited so long
Here I am
