She's Never Been Seen Since Then


She's Never Been Seen Since Then
Composer(s): Jack Cottrell
Performer(s): George Formby



It's marvellous to me the way some people lead their lives
Especially the men who've got what we call naggin' wives
And really it's quite simple folks as far as I can see
Now married men just use your brains and take a tip from me

Oh, she's never been seen since then
She's never been seen since then
My old girl, what a proper nark
I took her for a walk with me one night around the park
We were goin' by the lake and it had only just gone dark
And she's never been seen since then
No, never been seen since then

Oh, she's never been seen since then
She's never been seen since then
Her father told her that she was a pest
She ran away to London 'cause she thought it would be best
She couldn't find a room, so she stayed in a sailor's rest
And she's never been seen since then
No, never been seen since then

Oh, she's never been seen since then
Never been seen since then
Someone said, "What a silly ass"
She didn't care a bit, she had a face as bold as brass
One night she struck a match and put a penny in the gas
And she's never been seen since then
No, never been seen since then

Oh, she's never been seen since then
She's never been seen since then
My best pal, boy named Wood
Said he'd tame his ma-in-law, but found he never could
One night he took her on a bridge and someone heard a thud
And she's never been seen since then
No, never been seen since then

Oh, she's never been seen since then
She's never been seen since then
Married one year, had an awful life
Asked me how I'd like a woman like her for my wife
I said what, and you a butcher with a chopper and a knife
And she's never been seen since then
No, never been seen since then

(No!) Never been seen since then!

Composer(s): Don Altfeld; Jan Berry; Brian Wilson
Performer(s): Jan & Dean



11 bees, 4 wasps, a turtle...11 bees... and a bumblebee

Well I met her at the grad night party this year
(De dum dum dum dum de dum dum dum)
I held her real tight & whispered in her ear
"Come on & be my summer girl"

She's my summer girl; you know we're havin' fun
She's my summer girl; to me she's #1

I take her out surfin' with all the guys
(De dum dum...)
And man, you oughta see them roll their eyes
At my sweet little summer girl

She's my summer girl; you know we're havin' fun
She's my summer girl; to me she's #1

(Oooooo, de dum dum...
Oooooo, she's my summer girl)

She's my summer girl; you know we're havin' fun
She's my summer girl; to me she's #1

I wonder how it's gonna be when summer's through
(De dum dum...)
I have to quit all the groovy things we do
And forget my summer girl

She's my summer girl; you know we're havin' fun
She's my summer girl; to me she's #1

She's my summer girl; you know we're havin' fun
She's my summer girl; to me she's #1

(She's my summer girl, oooooo
She's my summer girl; to me she's #1)

She's My Lovely


She’s My Lovely
Composer(s): Vivian Ellis
Performer(s): Billy Ternent
and multiple other artists



She’s my lovely, my Venus
And don’t you agree, sir?
She’s my lovely
Serene as any Mona Lisa
She’s the sunset hour
When nothing looks grey
She’s the one set hour
I long for each day

For she’s my lovely
A hush that brings the pearly dawning
She’s my lovely
A thrush that sings at early morning
And the loveliest thing about her, you see
Is she’s so lovely to me

She’s my lovely
A hush that brings the pearly dawning
She’s my lovely
A thrush that sings at early morning
And the loveliest thing about her, you see
Is she’s so lovely to me

She's My Girl (The Turtles)


She's My Girl ((Scandinavian Version: Hän Jääköön! (by New Joys) - 1968)) Composer(s): Garry Bonner - Alan Gordon First release by: The Turtles - 1967



Mornin', mornin' glory
If you'd like to know where was I last night
Well I saw a girl with a boy in her eye
And she's so out of sight
She's my girl, and that's where I was last night
Off in a dream

She's my girl I took her away last night
We went for a ride
Off in the sky that's where I was last night

I just come back to tell you
There's a little bit of heaven underneath the apple tree
And every time I see you with that smile on your face
There's a little bit there for me and
She's my girl, and that's where I was last night
Went for a ride

She's my girl, I took her away last night
We went for a ride
My girl and that's where I was last night
Off in the sky

She's my girl, I took her away last night
Off in the sky
My girl and that's where I was last night
Gettin' so high
Off in the sky that's where I was last night

She's my girl, I took her away last night
We went for a ride
My girl and that's where I was last night
Gettin' so high

My girl, I took her away last night
Off in the sky
My girl and that's where I was last night
Gettin' so high

She's My Best Friend


She's My Best Friend
Composer(s): Lou Reed
First release by: Lou Reed - 1976
Covered by multiple other artists



She's my best friend, certainly not the average girl
She's my best friend, understands me when I'm falling down
Oh, it hurts to be that way
Oh, it hurts to know that you're that kinda fellow
Here's to Newspaper Joe, dropped his teeth on the floor
Caught his hand in the door
Guess that's the way the news goes

If you want to see me
Sorry, but I'm not around
If you want to be me
Turn around, I'm by the window where the light is

She's my best friend, better than a dog or cat
She's my best friend, understands me when I'm falling down
Oh, it hurts to be that way
Oh, it hurts to know that you're that kinda fellow
Here's to Mullberry Jane, she made jam when she came
Somebody cut off her feet, now jelly rolls in the street
If you want to see me
Sorry, but I'm not around
If you want to feel me
Turn around, I'm by the window where the light is

She's my best friend, certainly not the average girl
She's my best friend, understands me when I'm falling

Falling down, Falling down ...

She's Mine (Pigpen)


She's Mine
Composer(s): Lightin' Hopkins
Performer(s): Pigpen



Well she's little and she's low, right down on the ground
You know she's little and she's low, right down on the ground
You know the way she acts makes a rabbit hug a hound

And she's mine, she's mine, she's mine, she's mine
She's mine, she's little and low, crippled and she's blind

Everybody's laughin' at me where I go
'Cause I lead my old lady down the road
But she's mine, she's mine
Well she's mine, she little and low, crippled and she's blind

She's alright, make me feel so good
She's alright, make me feel so good
Yes if I didn't know
The woodpecker wouldn't be pecking no wood

Well, she's little and she's low again, right down on the ground
She's little and she's low, right down on the ground
You know, the way she acts make a rabbit hug a hound

She's still my baby, she feels so good
Yes, she's mine, she's little and low, crippled and she's blind

She's Mine (Fito Páez)


She´s Mine
Performer(s): Fito Páez



Hoy caí
en Madrid
y por casualidad, por casualidad
pienso en ti
strawberry fields
que importa la verdad
en Plaza Mayor
en Puerta del Sol
las chicas van igual...

en París
en Berlín
en cualquier lugar
en cualquier ciudad
pienso en ti
yo muero por tí
que importa la verdad
en Río, en Bonn
en Constitución
las chicas van igual...

Vi tu foto y me dormí
en una habitación
vi tu foto y me dormí

Hoy caí
en Madrid
y por casualidad, por casualidad
pienso en ti
la vida sin fin
que importa la verdad

She's mine, she's mine
she's mine, she's mine

Después me voy
yo necesito de tu amor
adonde voy, adonde voy
yo necesito de tu amor
después me voy, adonde voy
yo necesito de tu amor

Vi tu foto y me dormí
en una habitación
vi tu foto y me dormí

Rockin' Santa


Rockin' Santa
(Adapted from: Rockin' Robin - 1958)
Composer(s): Jimmy Thomas; Erick Traplin Performer(s): Erick Traplin



Well he rocks at the North Pole all year long
Hoppin' and a boppin' and a singin' his song
All the little elves, they tap their toe
When they hear Santa go ho, ho, ho

Rockin' Santa, ho, ho, ho
Rockin' Santa, ho, ho, ho
Well go rockin' Santa
Cos' we're really gonna rock tonight

Every little reindeer, every snowman
Every little elf in Christmas land
All the little toys, standin' in a row
Clap their hands sayin' go santa go

A pretty little elf at the toy stand
Taught him how to do the bop and it was grand
He started shakin' and what do you know
He's still boppin' at the North Pole

Well all the elves, will gather `round
When they hear Santa's goin' to town
They load up his sleigh, shine Rudolph's nose
And wave good-bye, sayin' go santa go

She's Looking Good


She's Looking Good
Composer(s): Autry Inman
Performer(s): Waylon Jennings
and multiple other artists



Everybody that I see
Says she's looking good
There's no doubt about it
She's looking good

There's just one thing that worries me
It happened this way before
She's looking good and I'm afraid
She'll find what she's looking for

There was a time her love was mine
And I was her whole world
But from time to time she changed her mind
Then she's a different girl

She'll paint her face and comb her hair
A picture that I adore
And I die each time so afraid she'll find
What she's looking for

Mhm, she's looking good.
Mhm, she's looking good...

She's Like The Wind


She's Like The Wind
Composer(s): Patrick Swayze; Stacy Widelitz
First release by: Patrick Swayze & Wendy Fraser - 1987



She's like the wind through my tree
She rides the night next to me
She leads me through moonlight
Only to burn me with the sun
She's taken my heart
But she deosn't know what she's done

Feel her breath on my face
Her body close to me
Can't look in her eyes
She's out of my league
Just a fool to believe
I have anything she needs
She's like the wind

I look in the mirror and all I see
Is a young old man with only a dream
Am I just fooling myself
That she'll stop the pain
Living without her
I'd go insane

Feel her breath on my face
Her body close to me
Can't look in her eyes
She's out of my league
Just a fool to believe
I have anything she needs
She's like the wind

She's Leaving Home


She's Leaving Home
Composer(s): John Lennon; Paul McCartney
First release by: The Beatles - 1967
Covered by multiple other artists



Wednesday morning at five o'clock as the day begins
She's silently closing her bedroom door
Just leaving a note that she hoped would say more
She goes downstairs to the kitchen
Clutching her handkerchief
She's quietly turning the backdoor key
She's stepping outside, and she is free

She - we gave her most of our lives
Is leaving - sacrificed most of our lives - home
We gave her everything money could buy
For so many years

Father snores as his wife gets into her dressing gown
She picks up the note that is lying there
She's standing alone at the top of the stairs
She breaks down and cries to her husband
"Daddy, daddy, our baby, she's gone!
How could she treat me so thoughtlessly
Tell me, why would she do this thing to me?"

She - we never thought of ourselves
Is leaving - never a thought for ourselves - home
We struggled hard all of our lives to get by
Oh, yes we did
Struggled for so many years

It's Friday morning at nine o'clock she is far away
She's got away
She's waiting to keep an appointment that she's made
She's meeting a man from the motor trade

She - what did we do that was wrong
Is leaving - we never knew that we did anything wrong - home
Fun is the one thing that money cannot buy

Something inside that was always denied for so many years
Why should she treat us so thoughtlessly?
Why should she do this to me?
Our baby's leaving home
I've been living alone for so many years
Bye-bye, oh bye-bye, goodbye

She's Leavin' (Bonnie, Please Don't Go)


She's Leavin' (Bonnie, Please Don't Go)
Composer(s): Kevin Johnson
Performer(s): Jim Ed Brown



She's leavin', she's leavin', she's on the ship now and leavin'
Standing by the gateway, tossin' streamers over my way
I find it kinda hard believin'
Deceivin', deceivin', my subtle game of deceivin'
Standing here and waving, blowin' kisses and behavin'
Like it doesn't matter much to see her leavin'

I don't know what, I don't know who, I don't know where she's goin' to
I only know she's goin' out of my life
Across the sea a-wavin' hands and Col'nel Billy's farewell band
I watch the disappearin' face of my wife
And I'm doin' all I can to hide the sad confusion in my mind
And brace myself with every trick I know
And though my lips are beating time to the words of Auld Lang Syne
My voice keeps on defyin', cryin' Bonnie, please don't go

Oh that fool in me, persuadin' me to hide the broken pieces of my
dignity
When a simple reassuring word just to reach out and comfort her
Was all I had to say to keep her here with me
And I don't know what, I don't know where, I don't know who she's
goin' to
I only know she's goin' out of my life
Across the sea a-wavin' hands and Col'nel Billy's farewell band
I watch the disappearin' face of my wife
She's leavin', she's leavin'

She's Just My Style


She's Just My Style
Composer(s): Gary Lewis; Leon Russell; Snuff Garrett; Al Capps
Performer(s): Gary Lewis
and multiple other artists



Ev'ry time I see her she don't even look my way
Maybe she will notice me but then what would I say?
I would say what's on my mind
But the words are hard to find
But I'm gonna try to tell her anyway

(Don'tcha know that she's) just my style?
(Ev'rything about her) drives me wild
(Don'tcha know that she's) just my style?
(Ev'rything about her) drives me wild
(Don'tcha know that she's) fine so fine?

Other guys who meet her may not think she's much to see
I can't begin to tell you what she always does to me
Maybe it's the clothes she wears
Or the way she combs her hair
Oh that makes me want to tell her that I care

(Don'tcha know that she's) just my style?
(Ev'rything about her) drives me wild
(Don'tcha know that she's) just my style?
Ev'rything about her) drives me wild
(Don'tcha know that she's) fine so fine?

Maybe it's the clothes she wears
Or the way she combs her hair
Oh that makes me want to tell her that I care

(Don'tcha know that she's) just my style?
(Ev'rything about her) drives me wild
(Don'tcha know that she's) just my style?
Ev'rything about her) drives me wild
(Don'tcha know that she's) fine so fine?

(Don'tcha know that she's) just my style?
(Ev'rything about her) drives me wild
(Don'tcha know that she's) just my style?

She's Got You


She's Got You
Composer(s): Hank Cochran
First release by: Patsy Cline - 1962
Covered by multiple other artists



I've got your picture
That you gave to me
And it's signed with love
Just like it used to be
The only thing different
The only thing new
I've got your picture
She's got you

I've got the records
That we used to share
And they still sound the same
As when you were here
The only thing different
The only thing new
I've got the records
She's got you

I've got your memory
Or, has it got me
I really don't know
But I know, it won't let me be

I've got your class ring
That proves you cared
And it still looks the same
As when you gave it, dear
The only thing different
The only thing new
I've got these little things
She's got you

I've got your memory
Or, has it got me
I really don't know
But I know, it won't let me be

I've got your class ring
That proves you cared
And it still looks the same
As when you gave it, dear
The only thing different
The only thing new
I've got these little things
She's got you

She's Got A Way


She's Got A Way
Composer(s): Billy Joel
First release by: Billy Joel - 1971
Covered by multiple other artists



She's got a way about her
I don't know what it is
But I know that I can't live without her

She's got a way of pleasin'
I don't know what it is
But there doesn't have to be a reason
Anyway

She's got a smile that heals me
I don't know why it is
But I have to laugh when she reveals me

She's got a way of talkin'
I don't know what it is
But it lifts me up when we are walkin'
Anywhere

She comes to me when I'm feelin' down
Inspires me without a sound
She touches me and I get turned around

She's got a way of showin'
How I make her feel
And I find the strength to keep on goin'

She's got a light around her
And everywhere she goes
A million dreams of love surround her
Everywhere

She comes to me when I'm feelin' down
Inspires me without a sound
She touches me and I get turned around

She's got a smile that heals me
I don't know why it is
But I have to laugh when she reveals me

She's got a way about her
I don't know what it is
But I know that I can't live without her
Anyway

She's Gonna Let You Down


She's Gonna Let You Down
Composer(s): Gerry Beckley
Performer(s): America



We're afraid she's gonna let you down
Take your money and drop you to the ground
Wouldn't want to see you messed around
After all the love you think you've found
She's gonna let you down

Doesn't matter what we say
Love's the stubbornest game to play
Given time you might see it our way
And we'll be sorry boy until that day
She's gonna break away

Remember all the times you helped us through
Now here's our chance to do the same for you
Guess the thing to do is wait around
Lend a hand when you are on the ground
She's gonna let you down
She's gonna let you down
She's gonna let you down

She's Gone, Gone, Gone


She's Gone, Gone Gone
Composer(s): Harlan Howard
First release by: Lefty Frizzell - 1965
Covered by multiple other artists



She said if I ever deceived her
She'd be gone before I could count ten
I guess that I didn't believe her
'Cause look at the trouble I'm in

She's gone, gone, gone, gone, gone, gone
Cryin' won't bring her back
The more that I cry, the faster that train flies
Farther on down the track

I lost every right to be happy
When I lost the heaven I found
She warned me she'd leave and she left me
Before my first tear hit the ground

She's gone, gone, gone, gone, gone, gone
Cryin' won't bring her back
The more that I cry, the faster that train flies
Farther on down the track

If I only knew where to find her
I'd crawl there on my hands and knees
Each tick of the clock's a reminder
She's one second farther from me

She's gone, gone, gone, gone, gone, gone
Cryin' won't bring her back
The more that I cry, the faster that train flies
Farther on down the track

She's Gone


She's Gone
Performer(s): Ferre Grignard



My baby's gone and died on me
She's gone but I'm not free
Now I know just how much I loved her
Now I just sit there and cry
Oh, yes she's gone
Oh, yes she's gone
To that land of no return
Got to roam, just got to travel
Any place, any old how
Faraway to distant places
Try to forget, forget it somehow
Oh yes, she's gone
Oh yes, she's gone
But my baby I don't know where I'm going
Got to go back, go back sometime
That's where I'll stay, that's where I'll die
Got to go back, go back sometime
That's where you lay, that's where I'll die
That's where I'll go
That's where I'll go
Oh, my precious love, that's where I'll go

She's Funny That Way


She's Funny That Way
Composer(s): Kurt Elling; Neil Moret; Richard Whiting
First recording/First release by: Gene Austin - 1928/1929
Covered by multiple other artists



I'm not much to look at, I'm nothing to see
I'm just glad I'm living, lucky to be
I've got a woman who's crazy 'bout me
She's funny that way

I can't save a dollar, I ain't worth a cent
She doesn't holler, she'd live in a tent
I've got a woman, crazy 'bout me
She's funny that way

Though she loves to work and slave for me every day
She'd be so much better off if I went away

But why should I leave her?
Why should I go?
She'd be unhappy without me I know
I've got a woman who's crazy 'bout me
She's funny that way

She's From Missouri


She's From Missouri
From the Paramount Picture "Dixie"
Composer(s): Jimmy Van Heusen; Johnny Burke
Performer(s): Bing Crosby



That girl you saw me with last night
Ain't she grand!
In case you meet her, which you might
Well, you've simply got to understand

She's from Missouri
You'd know it right away
She's from Missouri
Be careful what you say
Don't try to fool her
What a fool you'd be
When she has those eyes that say
"You've got to show me"

We'll soon be sweethearts
Her glances tell me so
Yet when I ask her
She sighs and answers "No"
I don't believe her
I'll tell you why
She's from Missouri
But so am I!
