Sweet Sir Galahad
Sweet Sir Galahad
Composer(s): Joan Baez
Performer(s): Joan Baez; Gary Scruggs
Sweet Sir Galahad
came in through the window
in the night when
the moon was in the yard
He took her hand in his
and shook the long hair
from his neck and he told her
she'd been working much too hard
It was true that ever since the day
her crazy man had passed away
to the land of poet's pride
she laughed and talked alot
with new people on the block
but always at evening time she cried
And here's to the dawn of their days
She moved her head
a little down on the bed
until it rested softly on his knee
And there she dropped her smile
and there she sighed awhile
and told him all the sadness
of those years that numbered three
Well you know I think my fate's belated
because of all the hours I waited
for the day when I'd no longer cry
I get myself to work by eight
but oh, was I born too late
and do you think I'll fail
at every single thing I try?
And here's to the dawn of their days
He just put his arm around her
and that's the way I found her
eight months later to the day
The lines of a smile erased
the tear tracks upon her face
a smile could linger, even stay
Sweet Sir Galahad went down
with his gay bride of flowers
the prince of the hours
of her lifetime
And here's to the dawn
of their days
of their days

Composer(s): John Lennon - Paul McCartney
First release by: The Beatles - 1965
Covered by multiple other artists
When I call you up, your line's engaged
I have had enough, so act your age!
We have lost the time that was so hard to find
And I will lose my mind if you won't see me
(You won't see me)
You won't see me
(You won't see me)
I don't know why you should want to hide
But I can't get through, my hands are tied
I won't want to stay, I don't have much to say
but I can turn away, and you won't see me
(You won't see me)
You won't see me
(You won't see me)
Time after time you refuse to even listen
I wouldn't mind if I knew what I was missing
(No I wouldn't no I wouldn't)
Though the days are few they're filled with tears
and since I lost you it feels like years
Yes, it seems so long, girl since you've been gone
and I just can't go on if you won't see me
(You won't see me)
You won't see me
(You won't see me)
Time after time you refuse to even listen
I wouldn't mind if I knew what I was missing
(No I wouldn't no I wouldn't)
Though the days are few they're filled with tears
and since I lost you it feels like years
Yes, it seems so long, girl since you've been gone
and I just can't go on if you won't see me
(You won't see me)
You won't see me
(You won't see me)
Ooh ooh la la la ooh ooh la la la

Sweet Rosie O'Grady
Sweet Rosie O'Grady
Composer(s): Maude Nugent
Performer(s): Betty Grable; Lou Praeger
Just down around the corner of the street I reside
There lives the cutest little girl I have ever spied
Her name is Rose O'Grady and, I don't mind telling you
That she's the sweetest little Rose the garden ever grew
I never shall forget the day she promised to be mine
As we sat telling love tales, in the golden summer time
'T was on her finger that I placed a small engagement ring
While in the trees, the little birds this song they seemed to sing!
Sweet Rosie O'Grady
My dear little Rose
She's my steady lady
Most everyone knows
And when we are married
How happy we'll be
I love sweet Rosie O'Grady
And Rosie O'Grady, loves me

You Won't Have To Cry
You Won't Have To Cry
Composer(s): James McGuinn; Gene Clark
Performer(s): The Byrds
Oh you know it makes me sad to see you feel so bad
But it's happened to you many times before
But if you will come with me then girl you will see
That you won't have to cry anymore
There's no reason to feel blue because of what he says to you
And I wouldn't want to see you hurt no more
I could never do you wrong 'cause my love for you's too strong
And you won't have to cry anymore
Oh I saw you there with tears in your eyes
Because he told you so many many lies
Oh you know it isn't right to put yourself up tight
By thinking 'bout the things he's done before
Just trust the love in me
And girl you will see
That you won't have to cry
No you won't have to cry
No you won't have to cry anymore

Living in the city has always been my dream
People there, said it was a shame and a pity
When old mayor Daley gave me the keys to the city
He too, said that I was as sweet as honey
'Cause I'm 34, 38 and 22 at the tonky
They call me sweet Rhode island red

Performer(s): The New Seekers
You won't find another fool like me, babe
No you won't
Who'll sit around all night and wait for you
And close their eyes, to oh so many lies
No one else could love you like I do
I wanna tell ya
You won't find another clown like me, babe
No you won't
I can't count the times you said you'd leave
You know darned well you're fooling
'Cause wherever you may go
You won't find another fool like me
Sometimes I can't understand
What makes me the fool that I am
Then you touch my hand
And suddenly I know
Even though you treat me like you do, babe
You know you do
I'm so hooked on you I can't get free
Oh but I'll get through the bad times
'Cause in my heart I know
That you won't find another fool like me
La la la
Give me just a sign
You may ring me sometime
I'll fall for that old game you always play, boy
I wanna tell ya
You won't find another clown like me babe
I can'y count the times you said you'd leave
You know darned well you're fooling
'Cause wherever you may go
You won't find another fool like me
Ooohhh
You will never find another fool like me

Sweet Potato Piper
Sweet Potato Piper
Composer(s): Johnny Burke - James V. Monaco
Performer(s): Bing Crosby, Dorothy Lamour, Bob Hope
and multiple other artists
Music soothes the savage
That's a well known phrase
But your heart becomes
Full of kettle drums
When the sweet potato piper plays
Go on, throw your hat up
Shout a few hoorays
Cause you can't hold back
You're a jumpin' jack
When the sweet potato piper plays
Though it's not a magic flute
There's a fascinatin' toot
It's not exactly beautiful
It's sort of like an I don't know
I guess you'd call it cute!
Sunbeams try new dance steps,
Songbirds sound their A's
And the world joins in
With a great big grin
When the sweet potato piper plays
Oh, play it Piper!
Yes, make me know it!
(Though it's not a magic flute)
(There's a fascinatin' toot)
(It's not exactly beautiful)
It's sort of like an I don't know
I guess you'd call it cute
Yes, I'm with the Piper!
(Music soothes the savage)
(That's a well known phrase)
But your heart becomes
Full of kettle drums
When the sweet potato piper plays
Go on, throw your hat up
Shout a few hoorays (Okay!)
(Cause you can't hold back)
(You're a jumpin' jack)
(When the sweet potato piper plays)
Though it's not a magic flute (Oh, no, no, no)
There's a fascinatin' toot (Toot-doo-doo-doo)
It's not exactly beautiful
It's sort of like an' I don't know
I guess you'd call it cute-li-doot
(Sunbeams try new dance steps)
(Songbirds sound their A's)
(And the world joins in)
(With a great big grin)
(When the sweet potato piper plays)
Oh, sweet potato piper hotter than a pickled pepper picker
Pick a piper for me

You Won't Ever Forget Me
You Won't Ever Forget Me
Composer(s): Lois Snapp; Ernest Tubb
Performer(s): Ernest Tubb; The McPeak Brothers
You tell me tonight that we’re parting
You tell me we are through
You’re sorry you say that it’s over
But that you have found somebody new
But before you leave me my darling
Before you go far away
Please listen to me for I love you, Dear
And I have a few words to say
You Won't Ever Forget Me
No matter how hard you try
And when it’s too late, my Darling
You will wish you had not said goodbye
So be sure to your heart you’re not laying
Be sure you don’t still love me yet
It’s easy to find a new love
But an old love is hard to forget
So dear take this thought along with you
Wherever you happen to be
Your lips maybe true to another
But your heart will be crying for me
Because You Won't Ever Forget Me
No matter how hard you try
And when it’s too late, my Darling
You will wish you had not said goodbye

Dear Mr. Claus, I'm writing you this note
Please pay attention to the words I've wrote
It's getting very lonely here at home
I think I'd like a special someone

Dear Mr. Claus, won't you bring me a real live doll?
'Cause I've been very, very good
Dear Mr. Claus, won't you bring me a real live doll?
Gee, you must have a thousand
You could do it, if you would
Won't you bring me a real live doll?
I'd like a special trick that looks delicious
Won't you bring me a real live doll?
I'm tired of cleaning all the pots and pans and dirty dishes
You can make her hair, dear Santa, black, brown, or red (or yellow)
Just be sure, dear Santa Claus, there's some on her head (there's a good fellow)
Dear Mr. Claus, won't you bring me a real live doll?
And I'll be good next year
And I'll be good next year
Yeah

Composer(s): Larry Stock; Harry James
Performer(s): Doris Day;
and various other artists
You won't be satisfied until you break my heart
You're never satisfied until the teardrops start
I tried to shower you with lovin' kisses
But all I ever get from you is naggin' and braggin'
My poor heart is saggin'
The way you toss my heart around's a cryin' shame
I'll bet you wouldn`t like it if I did the same
You're only happy tearin' all my dreams apart
You won't be satisfied until you break my heart
You won't be satisfied until you break my heart
You're never satisfied until the teardrops start
I tried to shower you with lovin' kisses
But all I ever get from you is naggin' and braggin'
My poor heart is saggin'
You won't be satisfied until you break my heart
You're never satisfied until the teardrops start
I tried to shower you with lovin' kisses
But all I ever get from you is naggin' and braggin'
My poor heart is saggin'
The way you toss my heart around's a cryin' shame
I'll bet you wouldn`t like it if I did the same
You're only happy tearin' all my dreams apart
It doesn't seem fair
(Those little white lies)
But you don't seem to care
(And now I realize)
You won't be satisfied until you've broken my heart

Sweet Pea
Sweet Pea
Composer(s): Tommy Roe
Performer(s): Tommy Roe
I went to a dance just the other night
I met a girl there she was out of sight
I asked a friend of mine who she could be
He said that her friends just call her Sweet Pea
Oh Sweet Pea
come on and dance with me
come on come on come on and dance with me
Oh Sweet Pea
come on and be my girl
come on come on come on and be my girl
I walked on over and asked her to dance
thinkin' maybe later of makin' romance
but every guy there was thinkin'; like me
I had to stand in line to get a dance with Sweet Pea
Oh Sweet Pea
come on and dance with me
come on come on come on and dance with me
Oh Sweet Pea
come on and be my girl
come on come on come on and be my girl
I finally got to whisper sweet words in her ear
convinced that we oughta get away from there
we took a little walk I held her close to me
and underneath the stars I said to Sweet Pea
Oh Sweet Pea I love you can't you see
Love you love you love you can't you see
Oh Sweet Pea come on and be my girl
come on come on come on and be my girl

Sweet Patti O'Hara Smith, she's driving me right 'round the bend
Yes she's driving me right 'round the bend

You Wonder How These Things Began
You Wonder How These Things Began
Composer(s): Schmidt; Jones
Performer(s): Peter Wyngarde
Well, this begins with a Glen
It begins with a season
Which, for want of a better reason, we'll call April
It begins with a forest, where the woodchucks woo
And leaves wax green
And the vines entwine moonlight lovers
Try to see it - not with your eyes, because they're wise
But with your ears - the cool, green breathing of the leaves
And hear it with the inside of your hand
The soundless sound of shadows
Celebrate sensation!
Recall it's secret place
You've been there you remember?
That special place?
Where someone held your hand?
And love was sweeter than the berries or the honey
Or the stinging taste of mint
It is April - before a rainfall
Perfect time to be in love

You Win Again (The Bee Gees)
You Win Again
Composer(s): Barry Gibb; Robin Gibb; Maurice Gibb
Performer(s): The Bee Gees
I couldn't figure why
You couldn't give me what everybody needs
I shouldn't let you kick me when I'm down
My baby
I find out everybody know that
You've been using me
I'm surprised you
Let me stay around you
One day I'm gonna lift the cover
And look inside your heart
We gotta level before we go
And tear this love apart
(Chorus)
There's no fight you can't fight
This battle of love with me
You win again
So little time
We do nothing but compete
There's no life on earth
No other could see me through
You win again
Some never try
But if anybody can, we can
And I'll be, I'll be
Following you
Oh baby I shake you from now on
I'm gonna break down your defenses
One by one
I'm gonna hit you from all sides
Lay your fortress open wide
Nobody stops this body from
Taking you
You better beware, I swear
I'm gonna be there one day when you fall
I could never let you cast aside
The greatest love of all
(Repeat Chorus)

Covered by multiple other artists
My world is like a river as dark as it is deep
Night after night the past slips in and gathers all my sleep
My days are just an endless stream of emptiness to me
Filled only by the fleeting moments of her memories
Sweet memories sweet memories hmm
She slipped into the silence of my dreams last night
Wondering from room to room turning on each light
Her laughter spills like water from the river to the sea
And I'm swept away from sadness clinging to her memories
Sweet memories sweet memories hmm

Performer(s): Hank Williams;
and various other artists
The news is out, all over town
That you've been seen, a-runnin' round
I know that I should leave but then
I just can't go, you win again
This heart of mine could never see
What everybody knew but me
Just trusting you was my great sin
What can I do, you win again
I'm sorry for your victim now
'Cause soon his head like mine will bow
You'll use his heart, but all in vain
And someday say, you win again
You have no heart, you have no shame
You take true love and give the blame
I guess that I should not complain
I love you still, you win again
