Sweetie O'mine
Sweetie O'mine
Composer(s): Haven Gillespie - Egbert Van Alstyne
Dearie, hear the joyful bells aringing gay
While the news is spreading of our wedding day
Cupid's in the aisle dressed in his Sunday smile
Awaiting there to guide us on our way
Since my sweetie named the day and everything
I've been saving up my pay to buy the ring
All the folks I see are wishing they were me
They say I'm as lucky as can be
The choir is singing, just for that Sweetie o' mine
The chimes are ringing for me and Sweetie o' mine
And to a cozy bungalow
Where pretty roses grow I'll soon be bringing, that Sweetie o' mine
Since dear old school days she's been a Sweetie o' mine
Since golden rule days, I've loved her all of the time
And you can tell the world for me, she's always going to be
The same old sweetheart, that Sweetie o' mine

Every time I kiss somebody new I
Make believe I'm kissing you but oh
I can't kid my aching heart 'cos

Sweethearts In The Spring
Sweethearts In The Spring
Performer(s): Foster & Allen
It was on a summer's evening when all the world was still
Two lovers rambled down the lane to an old and wooden mill
He was leaving on the 'morrow for lands far far away
And as she nestles close to him she heard him softly say
I'll return my little sweetheart, in the Spring
And for us those wedding bells will gai-aily ring
And when all the wrongs are righted
Our hearts will be united
I'll return my little sweetheart, i-in the Spring
On the quay there stands a soldier in uniform so bright
He's waiting for a big troop ship to take him to the fight
The bugles they are blowing and the master climbed it high
And as the cable settled down from below there comes a sight
I'll return my little sweetheart, in the Spring
And for us those wedding bells will gai-aily ring
And when all the wrongs are righted
Our hearts will be united
I'll return my little sweetheart, i-in the Spring
In a cottage by a fireside sits a maiden young and fair
And as the tears roll down her cheeks, her letter she put there
And as she read it o'er and o'er it was more than she could bear
But ever' morning dawned for her she was gone for all was fair
So they laid in her in the graveyard in the Spring
And for her those wedding bells will never ring
For among the dead and dying her soldier boy was lying
When they laid her in the graveyard i-in the Spring
I'll return my little sweetheart in the Spring
And for us those wedding bells will gai-aily ring
And when all the wrongs are righted
Our hearts will be ...

Young Blood
Young Blood
Composer(s): Jerry Leiber; Doc Pomus; Mike Stoller
Performer(s): The Beatles;
and various other artists
I saw her standing on the corner
a yellow ribbon in her hair
I couldn't stop myself from calling
look a-there, look a-there
look a-there, look a-there
Young Blood, Young Blood, Young Blood
I can't get you out of my mind
I took one look and I was fractured
I tried to walk but I was lame
I tried to talk but I just stuttered:
well what's your name, what's your name
well what's your name, what's your name
Young Blood, Young Blood, Young Blood
I can't get you out of my mind
A crazy stop, she was the top
I tried to follow her all the way home
Things went bad, I met her dad
he said: you'd better leave my daughter alone
Well I tried to (...)
I saw the rising of the sun
and all along my heart was falling
while you're the one, you're the one
while you're the one, you're the one
Young Blood, Young Blood, Young Blood
I can't get you out of my mind
A crazy stop, she was the top
I tried to follow her all the way home
Things went bad, I met her dad
he said: you'd better leave my daughter alone
Well I tried to (...)
I saw the rising of the sun
and all along my heart was falling
while you're the one, while you're the one
while you're the one, while you're the one
Young Blood, Young Blood, Young Blood
I can't get you out of my mind
Young Blood, Young Blood, Young Blood
I can't get you out of my mind

Sweetheart Waltz
Sweetheart Waltz
Composer(s): Jack Caddigan - Chick Story
Dearie now tell me, why do you sigh
Why do you let all the Sunshine pass bye
Life's all too short for a worry or care
When melody fills the air
Let us
Back of the shadows, there lies the sun
Waiting the dawning when night-time is done
Don't hide the Sun with a sorrowful sigh
Let all your clouds pass you by
Let us
Dance a good old sweet-heart waltz
In a good old fashioned way
Let us glide along while life's a song
And there's Moonlight on the bay
Let us sing a song of brighter days
And forget each other's faults
There are miles and miles of Sunny Smiles
When dancing a sweet-heart waltz

Young At Heart
Young At Heart
Composer(s): Carolyn Leigh; Johnny Richards
Performer(s): Frank Sinatra;
and various other artists
Fairy tales can come true
It can happen to you if you're young at heart (young at heart)
For it's hard, you will find
To be narrow of mind if you're young at heart (young at heart)
You can go to extremes with impossible schemes
You can laugh when your dreams fall apart at the seams
And life gets more exciting with each passing day
And love is either in your heart or on the way
Don't you know that it's worth
Every treasure on earth to be young at heart (young at heart)
For as rich as you are
It's much better by far to be young at heart (young at heart)
And if you should survive to a hundred and five
Look at all you'll derive out of bein' alive
And here is the best part, you have a head start
If you are among the very young at heart
(Don't you know that it's worth)
(Every treasure on earth to be young at heart)
(For as rich as you are)
(It's much better by far to be young at heart)
And if you should survive to a hundred and five
Look at all you'll derive out of bein' alive
And here is the best part, you have a head start
If you are among the very young at heart

They say there's a tree in the forest
A tree that will give you a sign

Big blossoms of white will burst into sight
And your love will be true evermore

Young And Warm And Wonderful
Young And Warm And Wonderful
Composer(s): Louis C. Singer; Hy Zaret
Performer(s): Tony Bennett;
Claudio Casanova; Peter Nero; Roger Williams
Everywhere that beauty glows you are
Everywhere an orchid grows you are
Everything that's young and gay, brighter than a holiday
Everywhere the angels play you are
You're like Paris in April and May
You're New York on a silvery day
A Swiss Alp as the sun grows fainter
You're Loch Lomond when autumn is the painter
You're Moonlight on a night in Capri
And Cape Cod looking out at the sea
You're all places that leave me breathless
And no wonder: you're all the world to me
You're Lake Como when dawn is aglow
You're Sun Valley right after a snow
A museum, a Persian palace
You're my shining Aurora Borealis
You're like Christmas at home by a tree
The blue calm of a tropical sea
You're all places that leave me breathless
And no wonder: you're all the world to me

Sweetheart Time
Sweetheart Time
Composer(s): Harold Robe - Milbury H. Ryder
Night time in June, right time to spoon, man in the moon
looking down from above, breezes are light, stars shining bright
fireflies are flashing their wireless above roses in bloom
spreading perfume bluebells are ringing their wedding ring chime
crickets and whippoor wills calling their trills, they all know it's sweetheart time
Now just we two, swear to be true, man in the moon dear, is laughing aloud
old mister moon, please let us spoon, can't you find business behind some dark cloud
winds softly sigh, while nightbirds cry nature is drowsy and everything is fine
now, dear, it's not a miss to steal a kiss, they all do in sweetheart time
It's sweetheart time, just good old sweetheart time
so, honey, under pale moon beams, we'll plan love's sweetest dreams
hug, squeeze, cupid decrees, in sweetheart time, I'll have you all for mine
we'll find a dear little cozy nest, in that bright rosy best, sweetheart time

Young And Foolish
Young And Foolish
Composer(s): Albert Hague; Arnold B. Horwitt
Performer(s): David Daniels & Gloria Marlowe;
and various other artists
Young and foolish, why is it wrong to be
Young and foolish, we haven’t long to be
Soon enough the carefree days, the sunlit days go by
Soon enough, the bluebird has to fly
We were foolish, one day we fell in love
Now we wonder what we were dreaming of
Smiling in the sunlight, laughing in the rain
I wish that we were young and foolish again
We were foolish, one day we fell in love
Now we wonder what we were dreaming of
Smiling in the sunlight, laughing in the rain
I wish that we were young and foolish again

Sweetheart May
Sweetheart May
(Traditional)
Long ago an angel I knew, if ever a one was seen
She was a bonnie sweet child of eight, and I was just eighteen
And every night she'd sit on my knee, her arms round my neck and say
I love you, I love you, and when I grow big, now promise to marry your May
Sweetheart May, when you grow up one day
You may marry another and my love betray
But I'll wait for you, and then we shall see
What you will do when I ask you to marry me
I went one day to countries away, to lands over sea to tread
Trials and troubles of life I met, as years lay on my head
But every night I'd think of that child, her smile and her young love-sigh
I longed just to see her grown up sweet eighteen, my May of the days gone by
I came back again, and I found her at last to a beautiful woman grown
I asked her to think of those old happy days, but the memory was mine alone
I stood there before her, I sang the old song, she couldn't recall it
I begged her to try
She said, I forget you; besides we must part, to-morrow I'm going to be married; good-bye

Young And Beautiful
Composer(s): Abner Silver; Aaron Schroeder
Performer(s): Elvis Presley;
and various other artists
You're so young and beautiful and I love you so
Your lips so red, your eyes that shine
Shame the stars that glow
So fill these lonely arms of mine
And kiss me tenderly
Then you'll be forever young
And beautiful to me
You're so young and beautiful, you're everything I love
Your angel smile, your gentle touch
Are all I'm dreaming of
Oh take this heart I offer you
And never set me free
Then you'll be forever young
And beautiful to me

Sweetheart
Sweetheart
Composer(s): Maurice Gibb - Barry Gibb - Sigmund Romberg
Performer(s): Engelbert Humperdinck
If your heart tells you so that you should leave me
Don't try to forget , you and I never met
And before you fly, one kiss should tell me why
You've forgotten all the words that you once said
Long as I've got you there beside me
Long as you're there to stand and guide me
The love we share no one can ever tear apart
Long as I've got this life I'm living
Long as it's you the love I'm with then
I'll keep on calling you sweetheart
If my love for you can't make you happy
Just open the door and you won't see my anymore
And before you fly , one kiss should tell me why
You've forgotten all the words that you once said
When you said
Long as I've got you there beside me
Long as you're there to stand and guide me
The love we share no one could ever tear apart
Long as I've got this life I'm living
Long as it's you the love I'm with then
I'll keep on calling you sweetheart
And I'll keep on calling you sweetheart

Young Americans
Young Americans
Composer(s): David Bowie
Performer(s): David Bowie;
and various other artists
They pulled in just behind the bridge
He lays her down, he frowns
"Gee my life's a funny thing, am I still too young?"
He kissed her then and there
She took his ring, took his babies
It took him minutes, took her nowhere
Heaven knows, she'd have taken anything, but
All night
She wants the young American
Young American, young American, she wants the young American
All right
She wants the young American
Scanning life through the picture windows
She finds the slinky vagabond
He coughs as he passes her Ford Mustang, but
Heaven forbid, she'll take anything
But the freak, and his type, all for nothing
He misses a step and cuts his hand, but
Showing nothing, he swoops like a song
She cries "Where have all Papa's heroes gone?"
All night
She wants the young American
Young American, young American, she wants the young American
All right
She wants the young American
All the way from Washington
Her bread-winner begs off the bathroom floor
"We live for just these twenty years
Do we have to die for the fifty more?"
All night
He wants the young American
Young American, young American, he wants the young American
All right
He wants the young American
Do you remember, your President Nixon?
Do you remember, the bills you have to pay
Or even yesterday?
Have you been an un-American?
Just you and your idol singing falsetto 'bout
Leather, leather everywhere, and
Not a myth left from the ghetto
Well, well, well, would you carry a razor
In case, just in case of depression
Sit on your hands on a bus of survivors
Blushing at all the Afro-Sheeners
Ain't that close to love?
Well, ain't that poster love?
Well, it ain't that Barbie doll
Her heart's been broken just like you have
All night
You want the young American
Young American, young American, you want the young American
All right
You want the young American
You ain't a pimp and you ain't a hustler
A pimp's got a Cadi and a lady’s got a Chrysler
Black's got respect, and white's got his soul train
Mama's got cramps, and look at your hands shake
I heard the news today, oh boy
I got a suite and you got defeat
Ain't there a man you can say no more?
And, ain't there a woman I can sock on the jaw?
And, ain't there a child I can hold without judging?
Ain't there a pen that will write before they die?
Ain't you proud that you've still got faces?
Ain't there one damn song that can make me
break down and cry?
All night
I want the young American
Young American, young American, I want the young American
All right
I want the young American
Young American
Young American, young American, I want the young American
(I want with you, I want with you want)
All right
(You want it, I want you you, you want I, I want you want)
Young American, young American, I want the young American
(I want to want, to want, to want , to want I, I want you)
All right
(Lord I wanted the young American)
(young American)
Young American, Young American
I want the young American

and multiple other artists
The sweetest sounds I'll ever hear
Are still inside my head
The kindest words I'll ever know

Is yet for me to see
And the dearest love in all the world
Is waiting somewhere for me
Is waiting somewhere, waiting somewhere
Waiting, waiting for me

Young Abe Lincoln
Young Abe Lincoln
Performer(s): Don Cornell
Raised up in Kentucky, in a cabin cold and bare
Readin by the fireside, he got his learning there
Earned his keep by splittin logs, he grew so lean and strong
He could fight against a bully
Or could right a mighty wrong
Young Abe Lincoln, loved all the people
Oh! What a wond'rous man was he
What a plain, what a humble man was he
Then he went to Springfield, started practicin the law
Folks began to know his name, from Maine to Arkansas
But when the people called him into politics, he went
Cause he had a date with destiny to be the president
When he was elected, o'er his country to preside
Rich or poor, to ev'ryone, his door was open wide
And when he felt the sorrow of a nation in distress
Whe he said will live forever in the Gettysburg Address
Then, on dark and fateful night, that hist'ry wil recall
He went to the theater in his silk hat and his shawl
There a shot was fired by a scoundrel known as Booth
and Abe Lincoln died, because he stood for liberty and truth
Young Abe Lincoln, loved all the people
Oh! What a wond'rous man was he
Gave his life, so that people could be free
Down in Washington, there stands a monument today
People come to honor him from near and far away
And though it's nigh a century, that he's been dead and gone
His truth goes marching on

Sweetest Of All
Sweetest Of All
Composer(s): Shel Silverstein
Performer(s): Dr. Hook; Foster & Allen
Out of all of the nights I remember
Of all of the loves I recall
There are many who live in my memory
But you were the sweetest of all
Wasn't it sweetest of all, babe
Wasn't it sweetest of all
I wasn't your first love, I wasn't your last
But wasn't it sweetest of all
Some times I still think about you
Some times I wish that you'd call
Some times I feel like you're lyin' here with me
And it's still the sweetest of all
So keep your goodbyes in your pocket
You ain't goin' nowhere at all
Your memory is stayin' here with me
`Cause you were the sweetest of all
Wasn't it sweetest of all, babe
Wasn't it sweetest of all
Of all of the lovers you let lie beside you
Weren't we sweetest of all
Wasn't it sweetest of all, babe
Wasn't it sweetest of all
Of all of the lovers you let lie beside you
Wasn't it sweetest of all
Weren't we sweetest of all, babe
Weren't we sweetest of all
Of all of the lovers you let lie beside you
Were we sweetest of all

You'll Never Walk Alone
Composer(s): Richard Rodgers; Oscar Hammerstein II
Performer(s): Frank Sinatra;
and various other artists
When you walk through a storm
Keep your chin up high
And don't be afraid of the dark
At the end of a storm is a golden sky
And the sweet silver song of a lark
Walk on through the wind
Walk on through the rain
Tho' your dreams
Be tossed and blown
Walk on
Walk on
With hope in your heart
And you'll never walk alone
You'll never walk alone
When you walk through a storm
Hold your head up high
And don't be afraid of the dark
At the end of a storm is a golden sky
And the sweet silver song of a lark
Walk on through the wind
Walk on through the rain
Tho' your dreams
Be tossed and blown
Walk on
Walk on
With hope in your heart
And you'll never walk alone
You'll never walk alone
