You're Kind
You're Kind
Composer(s): Paul Simon
Performer(s): Paul Simon; Silje Nergaard
You're kind
You're so kind
You rescued me when I was blind
And you put me on your pillow
When I was on the wall
You're kind, so kind, so kind
And you're good
You're so good
You introduced me to your neighborhood
Seems like I ain't never had
so many friends before
That's because you're good
You're so good
Why you don't treat me like
the other humans do
Is just a mystery to me
It gets me agitated when I think that
You're gonna love me now indefinitely
So goodbye, goodbye
I'm gonna leave you now
And here's the reason why
I like to sleep with the window open
And you keep the window closed
So goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
doot doot doot doot doot
oh, oh, doo doo doo doo doo doo doo

A Girl Like You (The Young Rascals)
A Girl Like You
Composer(s): Felix Cavaliere - Eddie Brigati
First release by: The Young Rascals - 1967
I don't know what it's all about
But I feel I'll soon find out
I'm sure, never felt this secure
It's nothin' like I ever thought it would be
Someone opened up a door for me
A girl like (I'm in love with)
Girl like you (I'm in love with you)
Must be you that caused this feelin' in me (Must be you)
You that fills me confidently (Must be you)
You that brings out the best in me
You....Uhhhhhh......Nobody but you
I don't know what it's all about
I can't begin to figure out what to do so I leave it to you
Only know that when you're away from me
Nothin' satisfies the need in me
For a girl like (I'm in love with)
A girl like you (I'm in love with)
Must be you that caused this feelin' in me (Must be you)
You that fills me confidently (Must be you)
You that brings out the best in me
You.... Nobody, nobody, Oh, Yeah!
Every time I'm holdin' you close to me
Trouble's gone, it's gone, I'm in ecstasy
With a girl (I'm in love with)
A girl like you (I'm in love with)
Someone to love me, H'yeah (I'm in love with)
Girl like you (I'm in love with)
Someone, someone to understand (I'm in love with)
'Xactly like you, hon (I'm in love with)
Girl, girl, girl (I'm in love with)
Girl, girl, girl (I'm in love with)
Girl, girl........

You're Just About Right For Me
You're Just About Right For Me
Composer(s): Richard Ahlert; Leslie
Performer(s): Kay Starr
You’re just about right for me
You absolutely fit me to a tee
You fit to the letter, you couldn’t be better
You’re just about right for me
I never thought that I would see
A person with your personality
The line that you hand out
To me is a stand out
You’re just about right for me
From your head to your toes
And leave out one detail
And your eyes and your nose
Kinda looks like you’s been reading my mail
Just about time for me
To tell you what your future’s gonna be
I’m talking it steady so I ain’t getting ready
You’re just about right for me
You’re just about right for me
You absolutely fit me to a tee
You fit to the letter, you couldn’t be better
You’re just about right for me
I never thought that I would see
A person with your personality
The line that you hand out
To me is a stand out
You’re just about right for me
From your head to your toes
And leave out one detail
And your eyes and your nose
Kinda looks like you’s been reading my mail
Just about time for me
To tell you what your future’s gonna be
I’m talking it steady so I ain’t getting ready
You’re just about right for me
Your eyes are blue, your kisses too
You and I know what they can do
You’re just about right
Just about right for me

A Girl I Knew
A Girl I Knew
Composer(s): John Kay - Morgan Cavett
Performer(s): Steppenwolf
She used to dance when she had the chance and the
time it didn't matter
At the end of her night was an endless flight
While her head, it was lost in the laughter
A girl I knew
Someone I used to talk to
When we'd meet in the middle of a room
A girl I knew
Her world a shade of blue
Someone I used to talk to
She used to sing in the night while her ring
It would sparkle like burgundy wine
And the people stopped and starred but pretend
she's not there
She used to dance when she had the chance and the
time it didn't matter
At the end of her night was an endless flight
While her head, it was lost in the laughter

You're Just A Flower From An Old Bouquet
You're Just A Flower From An Old Bouquet
Composer(s): Gwynn Denni; Lucien Denni
Performer(s): The Andrews Sisters;
Carmen Cavallaro; Josef Locke; Ruby Wright
I've hunted all over
To find myself a mate
Each girl seemed such a disappointment
It was just a trick of fate
I found then a blossom
A girl of long ago
See if you can guess dear
This girl that I love so
You're just a flower from an old bouquet
I've waited patiently for you, each day
You're just a dream come true, I know, dear
My dream, wonderful dreams of you
I'll build a home-nest full of love for you
Far from the world away
There in our sweetheart bower
You're just my flower
From an old Bouquet
I've prayed that my dreams someday
would all come true
And now at last my prayer is answered
For sweetheart, I've found you
And no other blossom
Will ever share a part
With my flower here
In the garden of my heart
You're just a flower from an old bouquet
I've waited patiently for you, each day
You're just a dream come true, I know, dear
My dream, wonderful dreams of you
I'll build a home-nest full of love for you
Far from the world away
There in our sweetheart bower
You're just my flower
From an old Bouquet

A Gift Of Love
A Gift Of Love
Composer(s): Barry Manilow - Bruce Sussman
Performer(s): Barry Manilow
Here in this silent night
Now all the world is right
As if we've suddenly been giving
A gift of love
A gift of love
Warm as the fire glow
Soft as the falling snow
A precious miracle we live in
This wonder of a gift of love
Night falls
At this coldest time of the year
Love calls
Here where I love you so
Now as our blessings grow
We share the greatest gift we'll ever know
A gift of love
A gift of love

You're In The Doghouse Now
You're In The Doghouse Now
Composer(s): Ned Claflin;
Mike Kernan; Jeff Lass; Andy Paley
Performer(s): Brenda Lee
You wore out your welcome mat
You used to be the cat's meow
You're in the doghouse now
You're such a handsome hound
You'll wind up in the pound
All you can say is bow-wow-wow
You're in the doghouse now
It was grand
yes, it was swell
But you bit the hand
That fed you so well
I hate a dog who begs
With his tail between his legs
Find a new place to bum your chow
Who's in the doghouse now?
On the town
Out on the trail
Don't come 'round
Go chase your own tail
I heard from Socrates
"Sleep with dog
Wake up with fleas"
I never liked you anyhow
You're in the doghouse now
You're in the doghouse now
You're in the doghouse now
Down, boy

A Giant Step
A Giant Step
From "Bye Bye Birdie"
Composer(s): Charles Strouse - Lee Adams
I took a giant step!
I'm mighty proud of me
Today, I am the man
I had to be
Those apron strings at last are cut
It's like I grew some wings
And flew out of my Oedipal rut
I leaped a giant leap!
I made the winning play
It ain't July, but hey
It's Independence Day!
No more 'Sonny Boy'
It's 'Mister Albert P.'
I took a giant step
A self reliant step
A brave defiant step and I'm free!
I climbed a giant peak
A daring thing to do
I'm way up high, oh Rosie
What a view!
I see the future and it's bright
It's no more 'Mama anything you say'
From morning till night
I took a giant step!
A wimpy kid no more
You never saw a turnaround like this before
It's just one small step for mankind
But for me
It was a forceful step, a most resourceful step
A bold and brassy step
A sassy, classy step
A self reliant step
A brave defiant step
I took a giant step
And I'm free

You're In My Heart
You're In My Heart
Composer(s): Rod Stewart
Performer(s): Rod Stewart;
and various other artists
I didn't know what day it was
when you walked into the room
I said 'hello' unnoticed; you said goodbye too soon
Breezin' thr' the clientele, spinnin yarns that were so lyrical
I really must confess right here, that the attraction was purely physical
I took all those habits of yours, which in the beginning were hard to accept
Your fashion sense for Beardsley prints, I put down to experience
The redheaded lasy with a dutch accent who tried to change my point of view
Her ad lib lines were well rehearsed, but my heart poured out for you
You're in my heart, you're in my soul
You'll be my breath should I grow old
You are my lover, you're my best friend
You're in my soul
My love for your is immeasurable, my respect for you: immense
You're ageless, timeless, lace and fineness, you're beauty and elegance
You're rhapsody, a comedy, you're a symphony and a play
You're every love song ever written, but honey what do you see in me?
You're in my heart, you're in my soul
You'll be my breath should I grow old
You are my lover, you're my best friend
You're in my soul
You're an essay in glamour
Please pardon the grammar
but you're every schoolboy's dream
You're Celtic united, but baby I've decided you're the best team I've ever seen
And there have been many a day, many times I thought to leave
But I bite my lip and turn around
'Cause you're the warmest thing I ever found
You're in my heart, you're in my soul
You'll be my breath should I grow old
You are my lover, you're my best friend
You're in my soul
You're in my heart, you're in my soul
You'll be my breath should I grow old
You are my lover, you're my best friend
You're in my soul

A Garden In The Rain
A Garden In The Rain
Composer(s): Carroll Gibbons - James Dyrenforth
Performer(s): Gene Austin
and multiple other artists
'Twas just a garden in the rain
Close to a little leafy lane
A touch of colour 'neath skies of grey
Bhe raindrops kissed the flower beds
The blossoms raised their thirsty heads
A perfumed "thank you" they seemed to say
Surely here was charm beyond compare to view
Maybe it was just that I was there with you
'Twas just a garden in the rain
But then the sun came out again
And sent us happily on our way
Surely here was charm beyond compare to view
But, maybe it was just that you were there dear,
You were so lovely
'Twas just a garden in the rain
But then the sun came out again
And sent us happily on our way
Just a garden in the rain

(You're) Having My Baby
Composer(s): Paul Anka
Performer(s): Paul Anka; Ray Conniff
Having my baby
what a lovely way of saying how much you love me
Having my baby
what a lovely way of saying what you're thinking of me
I can see it
Your face is glowing
I can see it in your eyes
I'm happy in knowing...
That your having my baby
you're the woman I love and I love what it's doing to you
Having my baby
you're a woman in love and I love what's going through you
The need inside you
I see it showing
Oh, the seed inside you baby do you feel it growing
Are you happy in knowing...
That you're having my baby
I'm a woman in love and I love what it's doing to me
Having my baby
I'm a woman in love and I love what's going through me
Didn't have to keep it
Wouldn't put you through it
You could have swept it from your life but you wouldn't do it
No, you wouldn't do it...
And you're having my baby
I'm a woman in love and I love what it's doing to me
Having my baby
I'm a woman in love and I love what's going through me

A Galinha
A Galinha
Performer(s): Chico Buarque
Todo ovo
Que eu choco
Me toco
De novo
Todo ovo
É a cara
É a clara
Do vovô
Mas fiquei
Bloqueada
E agora
De noite
Só sonho
Gemada
A escassa produção
Alarma o patrão
As galinhas sérias
Jamais tiram férias
``Estás velha, te perdôo
Tu ficas na granja
Em forma de canja''
Ah!!! é esse o meu troco
Por anos de choco???
Dei-lhe bicada
E fugi, chocada
Quero cantar
Na ronda
Na crista
Da onda
Pois um bico a mais
Só faz mais feliz
A grande gaiola
Do meu país

You're Gonna Miss Me
You're Gonna Miss Me
Composer(s): Eddie Curtis
Performer(s): Connie Francis
One kiss, one little sigh
That's all you gave me when you said goodbye
But someday baby, someday darlin'
You're gonna miss me
Uum-uum-uum
Long gone is your caress
And with it, all my happiness
But someday baby, someday darlin'
You're gonna miss me
Oh-oh-oh, yes
One of these nights you'll wake up cryin'
But I won't be there to comfort you
You'll turn on the lights, but you'll go on cryin'
'Cause only my true love can chase away your blues
Oh-oh, yes, you're gonna learn
I'm not the only one whose heart will burn
'Cause someday baby, someday darlin'
You're gonna miss me
Miss me, miss me, miss me
Someday baby, someday darlin'
You're gonna miss me
Oh-oh-oh-h, yes

A Gal In Calico
A Gal In Calico
Composer(s): Leo Robin - Arthur Schwartz
First performance by: Dennis Morgan, Jack Carson, Sally Sweetland - 1946
Covered by multiple other artists
I met a gal in Calico down in Santa Fe
Used to be her Sunday beau
'Til I rode away
Do I want her
Do I want her love
Yes-sir-ree
Will I win her
Will I win her love
Wait and see
Workin' with the rodeo
Go from town to town
See most every kind of gal
Every kind they got
But who makes my heart sing
Yip-ee-aye, Yip-ee-o
My little gal in Calico
(You can have your gal
Dressed in silk and satin
Tose who dress to shape
And crepe to shiek
Take your pretty gal
To go around Manhattan
Thinking they look well in velveteen
When they're at the table
We're not able
To imagine how they look)
I'm just a country boy
And my country boy
Knows a fancy cover
Doesn't make a fancy book
(No, the fancy cover
Doesn't make the book)
I'll take my gal in Calico
(Calico)
Down in Santa Fe
(Santa Fe, Santa Fe)
I guess I better let her know
That I feel this way
Is she waitin'
Is she waitin'
She better be
Am I hopin'
To be ropin' her
Yes-sir-ree
Gonna quit the rodeo
(Rodeo)
Gonna settle down
Buy a bow in Calico
For a wedding gown
Then will I fetch her in
Yip-ee-aye,
Yip-ee-o
My little gal in Calico
(Yip-ee-aye, Yip-ee-o)
(Little gal, Calico)
Yip-ee-ti-a
Ti-o, ti-a
Ti-o

You're Gonna Make Me Lonesome When You Go
You're Gonna Make Me Lonesome When You Go
Composer(s): Bob Dylan
Performer(s): Bob Dylan;
and various other artists
I've seen love go by my door
It's never been this close before
Never been so easy or so slow
Been shooting in the dark too long
When somethin's not right it's wrong
Yer gonna make me lonesome when you go
Dragon clouds so high above
I've only known careless love
It's always hit me from below.
This time around it's more correct
Right on target, so direct
Yer gonna make me lonesome when you go
Purple clover, Queen Anne lace
Crimson hair across your face
You could make me cry if you don't know
Can't remember what I was thinkin' of
You might be spoilin' me too much, love
Yer gonna make me lonesome when you go
Flowers on the hillside, bloomin' crazy
Crickets talkin' back and forth in rhyme
Blue river runnin' slow and lazy
I could stay with you forever
And never realize the time
Situations have ended sad
Relationships have all been bad
Mine've been like Verlaine's and Rimbaud
But there's no way I can compare
All those scenes to this affair
Yer gonna make me lonesome when you go
Yer gonna make me wonder what I'm doin'
Stayin' far behind without you
Yer gonna make me wonder what I'm sayin'
Yer gonna make me give myself a good talkin' to
I'll look for you in old Honolulu
San Francisco, Ashtabula
Yer gonna have to leave me now, I know
But I'll see you in the sky above
In the tall grass, in the ones I love
Yer gonna make me lonesome when you go

We're a fun bunch of guys
And we come from outer space
On the planet where we're from
War is even fun

We arrived here from the sky
On that cream pie parked outside
We're a fun bunch of guys
We're a fun bunch of guys
We speak English real good
On our TV's in the sky
Your reruns come in fine
We're a fun bunch of guys

You're Gonna Love Yourself (In The Morning)
Composer(s): Donnie Fritts
Performer(s): Kris Kristofferson;
and various other artists
Heaven knows that someone has abused you
I guess that's why you think I'm gonna use you
You say you'll hate yourself in the morning
Cause you'll wake up and find me gone
But if you give me just one more chance
I can prove you wrong
Chorus
You're gonna love yourself in the morning
Cause I'm gonna love you all night long
You're gonna love yourself in the mor...ning
And every morning from now on
I know what you're thinking I don't blame you
It's gonna take a whole lot of love just to change you
When you wake up in the morning, you're gonna feel like a different girl
And you will see ... that it can be such a beautiful world ....
(to Chorus)

A Full-Time Job
A Full-Time Job
Composer(s): Jerry Teiffer
Performer(s): Eddy Arnold
and multiple other artists
I want a full-time job making love to you
I'll do anything you want me to
But if you have no plan to use a full-time man
A part-time job will do
I want a life time job being close to you
Making all your dreams come true
But if your heart don't throb about a full-time job
A part-time job will do
You wouldn't have to pay me
A nickel or a dime
As long as you would let me
Get in a little bit of overtime
I want a full-time job holding hands with you
I think you'd kinda like it too
Don't want a part-time job I want a full-time job
But a part-time job will do
You wouldn't have to pay me
A nickel or a dime
As long as you would let me
Get in a little bit of overtime
I want a full-time job holding hands with you
I think you'd kinda like it too
Don't want a part-time job I want a full-time job
But a part-time job will do
