I've Been There Too


I've Been There Too
Composer(s): Alvin Lee
Performer(s): Ten Years After



There's someone somewhere who can't go on
Their life is crying, it's all gone wrong
What can I say now to help you through
Except to say that I've been there too?

Your soul is aching, you can't see it through
But time is healing each day you do
Keep looking forward, forget the past
It's up to you now, don't let it last

You got to wake up, shake up
You got a right to live
Shake up, don't break up
You've got a lot to give

You'll wake up one morning, you start to feel good
The sun in the blue sky looks like it should
'Cause time is a healer, it's strange but it's true
So, keep looking forward, the sun will come through

You got to wake up, shake up
You got a right to live
Shake up, don't break up
You've got a lot to give

Gelobet Seist Du, Jesu Christ


Gelobet Seist Du, Jesu Christ
Composer(s): Martin Luther
Performer(s): J.S. Bach



Gelobet seist du, Jesu Christ
Dass du Mensch geboren bist
Von einer Jungfrau, das ist wahr
Des freuet sich der Engel Schar
Kyrieleis!

Den aller Welt Kreis nie beschloss
Der liegt in Marien Schoss
Er ist ein Kindlein worden klein
Der alle Ding' erhält allein
Kyrieleis!

Der Sohn des Vaters, Gott von Art
Ein Gast in der Welt hier ward
Und führt unsaus dem Jammertal
Er macht uns Erben in sein'm Saal
Kyrieleis!

Das ew'ge Licht geht da herein
Gibt der Welt ein'n neuen Schein
Es leucht't wohl mitten in der Nacht
Und uns des Lichtes Kinder macht
Kyrieleis!

Das hat er alles uns getan
Sein' gross' Lieb' zu zeigen an
Des freu' sich alle Christenheit
Und dank' ihm des in Ewigkeit
Kyrieleis!

I've Been Married Just As Long As You Have


I've Been Married Just As Long As You Have
Composer(s): Dolly Parton; Porter Wagoner
Performer(s): Porter Wagoner & Dolly Parton



Dolly:
Last night you went out again
With what you said was your best friend
You say you need some time away from me
The sun was high when you got in
But not as high as you had been
And I wonder how you would act
If I done just the way I pleased

I've been married just as long as you have
And I get tired of the same old things
Just the same as you have
Well let me tell you this, big boy

When you go out for a night of joy
You better start taking me along
Or you'll be singing a different song
For I've been married just as long as you have

Porter:
While I'm working hard all day
you run around and spend my pay
You entertain your friends at my expence
But you cry and carry on
When I do something on my own
And you accuse with lack of evidence

I've been married just as long as you have
And I get tired of the same old things
Just the same as you have
So let me tell you this, sweetheart
I figure I've done my part
So don't get cute and get so smart
I'll tell you this before you start
I've been married just as long as you have

Dolly:
And that's a pretty good while

Porter:
Honey, you're the cat I've spent nine lives with

Dolly:
I know you have, you ain't spent no time at home
You're running around all over town
You're here and there everywhere

Porter
And if I could stand you long enough
I might stay at home a little more

Dolly:
You move so fast a umbrella'd be in your way, honey
If it was raining

Porter:
Oh boy, now ain't that cute
If your heart was as big as your mouth
You'd give everything we owned away

Dolly:
But I love you, you little devil
So don't you ever take off and leave me now here by myself
I'll hit you right in the

Porter:
I wouldn't, I wouldn't trust you with yourself

Dolly:
I'll hit you right in the mouth, honey, and it'll go

Porter:
You will, golly!

Dolly:
Ah, but then you'll look like you've had the mumps
When I get done kissing you

Porter:
Why don't you do it now, I ain't had the mumps

Dolly:
I'm a-gonna do it, here it goes, golly
I'll get you in line, that's true

Porter:
Ho-hoo, woman you're killing me, but I love every minute of it

Gee Whiz, It's Christmas


Gee Whiz, It's Christmas
Composer(s): Steve Cropper; Carla Thomas; Vincent Trauth
Performer(s): Carla Thomas



Hello there, Merry Christmas, how've you been
Gee, it's so good to talk to you again
It's been a long, long time
Can't explain why you've crossed my mind
I guess it's just to wish you a Merry Christmas

My best friend's having a party and everbody's going
I know it's gonna be alot of fun, oh, by the way, it's snowing
It's been a long, long time
Can't explain why you've crossed my mind
I guess it's just to say
Gee whiz, it's Christmas

It's funny that I never thought to call you before
And why didn't I ever see you around anymore
Another year has passed, and I can't erase
The memory of your smiling face
So I had to call you up and say
Gee whiz, it's Christmas

So don't forget the party that's just growing
The warm fire from the fireplace will be glowing
It's been a long, long time
I still can't figure out why you've crossed my mind
I guess it's just to say
Gee whiz, it's Christmas

I'm wishing you a Merry
Have a Merry, Merry Christmas
Gee whiz ...

I've Been Lonely Too Long


I've Been Lonely Too Long
Composer(s): Eddie Brigati; Felix Cavaliere
Performer(s): The Rascals



I've been lonely too long
I've been lonely too long
In the past it's come and gone
I feel like I can't go on without love
I've been lonely too long (He's been lonely too long)
I've been lonely too long (He's been lonely)

As I look back
I can see me lost and searching
Now I find that I can choose
I'm free
Oh, Yeah!
So funny I just have to laugh
All my troubles been torn in half
I been lonely too long (He's been lonely too long)
Lonely too long (He's been lonely)

In the past it's come and gone
I feel like I can't go on without love
(Lonely), lonely too long
I've been lonely so long (He's been lonely)

Just see me now
Makes it worth the time I've waited
She was all I need to make me see
Oh, Yeah!
I keep hopin' with all my mind
Everything gonna turn out right
I've been lonely too long (He's been lonely too long)
I've been lonely so long (He's been lonely)

Now look at me
Gliding through this world of beauty
Everything I do brings ecstasy
Oh, Yeah!
No wonder I could die
I feel like I'm 'bout ten miles high!
I've been lonely too long (He's been lonely too long)
Lonely too long (He's been lonely)

Found myself somebody (He's been lonely)
Don't have to be alone no more (He's been lonely, He's been lonely)
Don't have to be alone no more, no more (He's been lonely, He's been lonely)

Sing fum, fum, fum

Sing fum, fum, fum
For a blessed Babe was born
Upon this day at the break of morn
In a manger poor and lowly
Lay the Son of God most holy

Now we all our voices raise
And sing a song of grateful praise
Celebrate in song and story
All the wonders of His glory

I've Been Hearing Things About You
Composer(s): Vince Gill
Performer(s): Vince Gill



Have I gone crazy
Is there someone new
Something strange is going on
Between me and you
But tell me baby
Tell me it's not true
'Cause I've been hearing things about you

Are you unhappy
Are you lonely too
Won't you tell me face to face
What you're gonna do
Well I still love you
But I'm nobody's fool
I've been hearing things about you

Yeah I heard you've been dancin'
When you're out there runnin' 'round
And I heard you've been seein'
Some stranger you have found
And I heard you've been thinkin'
About tellin' me we're through
Yeah I've been hearing things about you

Yeah I heard you've been thinkin'
About tellin' me we're through
I've been hearing things
Oh I ain't naming names
I've been hearing things about you

Frosty The Snowman


Frosty The Snowman Composer(s): Steve Nelson; Jack Rollins First release by: Guy Lombardo and His Royal Canadians - 1951 Covered by multiple other artists



Frosty the Snowman
was a jolly happy soul
with a corncob pipe and a button nose
and two eyes made of coal

Frosty the Snowman
is a fairytale, they say
He was made of snow
but the children know
how he came to life one day

There must have been some magic in
that old silk they found
for when they placed it on his head
he began to dance around!

Oh, Frosty, the Snowman
was alive as he could be
and the children say
he could laugh and play
just the same as you and me

Frosty, clumsy as he can be
see him lopping along!
Off he goes on an icicle spree
with a happy song!

Frosty the Snowman
knew the sun was hot that day
so he said, "Let's run, and we'll have some fun
now, before I melt away"

Down to the village
with a broomstick in his hand
Runnin' here and there
all around the square
sayin', "Catch me if you can"

He led them down the streets of town
right to the traffic cop . . .
and only paused a moment
when he heard him holler, "Stop!"

Hmm, Frosty the Snowman
had to hurry on his way
But he waved goodbye, sayin'
"Don't you cry
I'll be back again some day"

Thumpety, thump thump, thumpety, thump thump . . .
look at Frosty go!
Thumpety, thump thump, thumpety, thump thump . . .
over the hills of snow!

I've Been Floating Down The Old Green River


I've Been Floating Down The Old Green River
Composer(s): Joe Cooper; Bert Kalmar
Performer(s): Johnny Mercer
and multiple other artists



Half past four, Dan Mc Graw, came sneak-ing to his wif-ey's door
She'd been wait-ing up all night, Wait-ing for him to go to bed
Dan-ny smiled, like a child, but his wif-ey grew very wild
Where have you been all night long?, she cried
And this is what Dan-ny re-plied

I've been float-ing down the old green riv-er on the good ship Rock and Rye
But I floated to far, I got stuck on a bar
I was out there a-lone, wish-ing that I was home
The ship got wrecked with the captain and crew
And there was on-ly one thing left to do
So I had to drink the whole green riv-er dry
to get back home to you
(Repeat chorus)

Do you think she bought his story?

From Texas For A Christmas Night


From Texas For A Christmas Night
Composer(s): Tish Hinojosa
Performer(s): Tish Hinojosa



Angel wings and candle light
From Texas for a Christmas night
In my mind a western sky
Fills my heart with stars inside it
A tale of hope from long ago
Still glistens like new fallen snow
Boughs of green and songs of old
Make the season glow

Children spy through frosty windows
'Til their sleepy eyes
Take them to a place
We wish we'd never left behind
From here the world could be so right
Dreams come true and reindeer fly
Kiss me 'neath the mistletoe
Make the season so

From heaven above to earth I come
To bear good news to every home
Glad tidings of great joy I bring
Whereof I now will gladly sing

To you this night is born a Child
Of Mary, chosen mother mild
This little Child, of lowly birth
Shall be the joy of all the earth

Glory to God in highest heaven
Who unto us His Son hath given!
While angels sing with pious mirth
A glad New Year to all the earth

I've Been Away


I've Been Away
Composer(s): John Entwhistle
Performer(s): The Who



I've been away so long
Wonder where I went wrong
Spent my last years in a cell
Never ever go away again
I've been so sad and lonely
Never ever ever gonna go away again

It's a waste of time doing time
When you dind't commit a crime
It wasn't me it was my brother Bill
And I'd have to tell never gonna speak to Bill again
He's made me sad and lonely
Never ever gonna speak to brother Bill again

It was no use, they put my brother on the jury
He bribed the others 'cause he owns the local brewery
They let me out today
Brother Bill's gonna pay
No one's ever gonna speak to Bill again
Never ever gonna speak to Bill again
He'll be too cold and bony
Never ever gonna go away again
Never ever gonna go away again
Never ever gonna go away again

Fröhlich Soll Mein Herze Springen


Fröhlich Soll Mein Herze Springen Composer(s): Paul Gerhardt; Johann Crüger Performer(s): Sumi Jo



Fröhlich soll mein Herze springen
Dieser Zeit, Da vor Freud'
Alle Engel singen
Hört, hört, wie mit vollen Chören
Alle Luft Laute ruft
Christus ist geboren!

Heute geht aus seiner Kammer
Gottes Held, Der die Welt
Reißt aus allem Jammer
Gott wird Mensch dir, Mensch, zugute
Gottes Kind, Das verbind't
Sich mit unserm Blute

Sollt' uns Gott nun können haßen
Der uns gibt, Was er liebt
Über alle Maßen?
Gott gibt, unserm Leid zu wehren
Seinen Sohn Aus dem Thron
Seiner Macht und Ehren

Sollte von uns sein gekehret
Der sein Reich Und zugleich
Sich uns selbst verehret?
Sollt' uns Gottes Sohn nicht lieben
Der jetzt kömmt, Von uns nimmt
Was uns will betrüben?

Hätte vor der Menschen Orden
Unser Heil Einen Greu'l
Wär'er nicht Mensch worden
Hätt' er Lust zu unserm Schaden
Ei, so würd' Unsre Bürd'
Er nicht auf sich laden

Er nimmt auf sich, was auf Erden
Wir getan, Gibt sich an
Unser Lamm zu werden
Unser Lamm, das für uns stirbet
Und bei Gott Fuer den Tod
Gnad' und Fried' erwirbet

Nun, er liegt in seiner Krippen
Ruft zu sich Mich und dich
Spricht mit süßen Lippen
Laßet fahr'n, o liebe Brüder
Was euch quält, Was euch fehlt
Ich bring' alles wieder

Ei, so kommt und laßt uns laufen!
Stellt euch ein, Groß und klein
Eilt mit großem Haufen!
Liebt den, der vor Liebe brennet
Schaut den Stern, Der uns gern
Licht und Labsal gönnet

Die ihr schwebt in großen Leiden
Sehet, hier Ist die Tür
Zu den wahren Freuden
Faßt ihn wohl, er wird euch führen
An den Ort, Da hinfort
Euch kein Kreuz wird rühren

Wer sich fühlt beschwert im Herzen
Wer empfind't Seine Sünd'
Und Gewissensschmerzen
Sei getrost, hier wird gefunden
Der in Eil' Machet heil
Die vergift'ten Wunden

Die ihr arm seid und elende
Kommt herbei, Füllet frei
Eures Glaubens Hände!
Hier sind alle guten Gaben
Und das Gold, Da ihr sollt
Euer Herz mit laben

Süßes Heil, laß dich umfangen
Laß mich dir, Meine Zier
Unverrückt anhangen!
Du bist meines Lebens Leben
Nun kann ich Mich durch dich
Wohl zufrieden geben

Meine Schuld kann mich nicht drücken
Denn du hast Meine Last
All' auf deinem Rücken
Kein Fleck ist an mir zu finden
Ich bin gar Rein und klar
Aller meiner Sünden

Ich bin rein um deinetwillen
Du gibst g'nug Ehr' und Schmuck
Mich darein zu hüllen
Ich will dich ins Herze schließen
O mein Ruhm, Edle Blum'
Laß dich recht genießen!

Ich will dich mit Fleiß bewahren
Ich will dir Leben hier
Dir will ich abfahren
Mit dir will ich endlich schweben
Voller Freud' Ohne Zeit
Dort im andern Leben

I've Already Loved You In My Mind


I've Already Loved You In My Mind
Composer(s): Conway Twitty
Performer(s): Conway Twitty; Heidi Hauge; Loretta Lynn



I thought I've never seen a girl like her in here before
And I could see her watching me as I walk across the floor
I asked her if she'd like to dance when the band starts up again
She said I never danced with strangers I don't even know your name
I said we're not exactly strangers you and I
My thoughts were running wild and free as I watched you tonight
Just think about it and you'll find
We're not exactly strangers I've already loved you in my mind

The band started playing a slow moving song she got up and easily moved into my arms
I kept on saying the things a girl likes to hear
And when the dance was over she whispered in my ear
She said we're not exactly strangers you and I
My thoughts were running wild and free while you held me tight
I thought about it and I find
We're not exactly strangers I've already loved you in my mind

Frohe Weihnacht


Frohe Weihnacht
Performer(s): Reinhard Mey



Frohe Weihnacht, Ihr Leute, jetzt kommt wieder die Zeit
der Erwartung und Vorfreude, und weit und breit
ist im Lande ein Singen, Halleluja!
Registrierkassen klingen von fern und von nah
Und die Luft ist von Pfefferkuchenduft erfüllt
und kein Lautsprecher, aus dem's nicht "Stille Nacht" brüllt

Frohe Weihnacht, Ihr Leute, jetzt kommt wieder das Fest
wo das Schenken uns Menschen befällt wie die Pest
wo man sich mit Parfum und Krawatten beglückt
und sich Liebe in Haushaltsgeräten ausdrückt
wo die Sektkorken knallen, wo man reinhaut und schlemmt
und die Umwelt mit Weihnachtskarten überschwemmt

Frohe Weihnacht, Ihr Leute! So wie in jedem Jahr
gibt's auch diesmal die Chance, auf dem Weihnachtsbasar
allen Unrat zu stiften aus Schränken und Truh'n
und was man sonst nicht wagt, auf den Sperrmüll zu tun
in der frohen Gewißheit, daß, was man da verschenkt
bis zum nächsten Jahr bei unsern Nachbarn rumhängt

Frohe Weihnacht, Ihr Leute! Jetzt ist die Zeit wieder dran
wo sich mancher vor Nächstenliebe gar nicht einkriegen kann
jeder Politiker Sprüche vom Frieden klopft
daß das Wachs auf Tischtücher und Teppiche tropft
wo man friedlich zu Hause sitzt und Nüße knackt
und in Wald und in Flur Weihnachtsbäume umhackt

Frohe Weihnacht, Ihr Leute, und erfreut Euch daran
daß man jetzt nicht so sehr auffällt als Weihnachtsmann
daß in jeder Amtsstube eine Kerze brennt
wie ein Menschlichkeitsschimmer am Amtsfirmament
Freut Euch über Lametta, Tand und Lichterglanz
und darüber, jetzt Mensch zu sein und keine Gans!

Frohe Weihnacht, Ihr Leute, und verliert keine Zeit!
Der Drogist hält schon Sylvesterknaller bereit!
Und bedenkt, jeder Christbaumkringel, den Ihr heut nicht eßt
wird schon morgen zu Osterhasen umgepreßt!
Dann ist Weihnacht vorbei, und als Trost bleibt dann bloß
Gegen Ende August geht's ja schon wieder los
gegen Ende August geht's ja schon wieder los
