With Her Head Tucked Underneath Her Arm
With Her Head Tucked Underneath Her Arm
Composer(s): Bert Lee; R.P. Weston; Harris Weston
Performer(s): Stanley Holloway; The Kingston Trio
In the Tower of London large as life
The Ghost of Anne Boleyn walks they declare
For Anne Boleyn was once King Henry's wife
Until he made the headsman bob her hair!
Ah, yes, he did her wrong, long years ago
And, she comes up at night to tell him soooo!
With her head tucked underneath her arm
She walks the Bloody Tower
With her head tucked underneath her arm
At the midnight hour
She comes to haunt King Henry
She means to give him 'what for'
Gadzook! She's going to tell him off
For having split her gore
And, just in case the headsman
Wants to give her an encore
She has her head tucked underneath her arm
With her head tucked underneath her arm
She walks the Bloody Tower
With her had tucked underneath her arm
At the midnight hour
Along the draughty corridors
For miles and miles she goes
She often catches cold, poor thing
It's cold there when it blows
And it's awfully awkward for the Queen
To have to blow her nose
With her head tucked underneath her arm
With her head tucked underneath her arm
She walks the Bloody Tower
With her head tucked underneath her arm
At the midnight hour!
Sometimes gay King Henry gives a spread
For all his pals and gals and ghostly crew
The headsman carves the joint and cuts the bread
Then in comes Anne Boleyn to 'queer the do!'
She holds her head up with a wild war whoop!
And Henry cries, "Don't drop it in the soup!"
With her head tucked underneath her arm
She walks the Bloody Tower
With her head tucked underneath her arm
At the midnight hour
The sentries think that it's a football
That she carries in
And when they've had a few they shout
'Is Ars'nal going to win?'
They think it's Alec James
Instead of poor old Ann Boleyn
With her head tucked underneath her arm
With her head tucked underneath her arm
She walks the Bloody Tower
With her head tucked underneath her arm
At the midnight hour
One night she caught King Henry
He was in the canteen bar
Said he, "Are you Jane Seymore
Anne Boleyn or Catherine Parr?"
"How the sweet san fairy ann
Do I know who you are?"
With your head tucked underneath your arm!
With her head tucked underneath her arm
She walks the Bloody Tower
With her head tucked underneath her arm
At the midnight hour

Alone In The Night
Alone In The Night
Composer(s): Larry Lee - Richie Zito - Tom Whitlock - Steve Bates
Performer(s): Roger Daltrey
When the lights are down and there's no one there
You can hear the sound of the rock'in chair
Rocking in the dark, feel it in the air
Searching for the spark of love affair
The world keeps on turning, every night and every day
The fire keeps on burning calling to say
I'm alone in the night, the silence in the shadows, alone in the night
A heart where no one goes, alone in the night
A sprint that the wind blows, alone in the night
The face sitting in the window I'm alone in the night
When the lights go down, on another day
Darkness all around as the angels play
Watch the falling stars, as they cross the sky
They're so near, so far, they're the tears I cry
I hear the voices calling of lovers in the night
I feel the rain is falling blinded by light
I'm alone in the night, the silence in the shadows, alone in the night
A heart where no one goes, alone in the night
A sprint that the wind blows, alone in the night
The face sitting in the window I'm alone in the night

With God On Our Side
With God On Our Side
Composer(s): Bob Dylan
Performer(s): Manfred Mann;
and various other artists
My name it is nothing, my age it means less
The country I come from is a part of the Free West
I was taught and brought up there its laws to abide
And that the land that I live in has God on its side
Oh the history books tell it, they tell it so well
The cavalries charged, the Indians fell
The cavalries charged, the Indians died
For the country was young with God on its side
Oh the first World War, it came and it went
The reason for fighting I never could get
But I learned to accept it, accept it with pride
For you don’t count the dead when God’s on your side
And then the second World War, it came to an end
We forgave the Germans and now we are friends
Though they murdered six million, in the ovens they fried
The Germans now, too, have God on their side
But now we have weapons of chemical dust
And if fire them we’re forced to, why then fire them we must
One push of the button and a shot the worldwide
And you never ask questions when God’s on your side
‘tho many a long hour I’ve thought on this
That Jesus Christ was betrayed by a kiss
But I can’t think for you, you will have to decide
Whether Judas Iscariot had God on his side
And now as I leave you, I’m weary as hell
The confusion I’m feelin’, there ain’t no tongue can tell
The words fill my head and drop to the floor
That if God’s on our side, he’ll stop the next war

Alone In Brewster Bay
Alone In Brewster Bay
Composer(s): Minnie Riperton - Richard Rudolph
Performer(s): Minnie Riperton
Watch the fire die
See the snowflakes fly
Hear the geese out honking' on the bay
Feel the fire's flame
Do they sigh your name
Think of you, my love, so far away
Once I never moved without you
I held on to you all the time
But now that I'm three days without you
I feel a lot like cryin'
I feel like cryin'
I feel like cryin
'I feel like cryin'
Then I close my eyes
And I search the skies
For a sign of you thinking of me
Then I feel you here
You are oh so near
In my mind I find you next to me
Cause once I never moved without you
I held on to you all the time
But now that I'm three days without you
I feel a lot like cryin'
I feel like cryin'
I feel like cryin
'I feel like cryin'
Watch the fire die
See the snowflakes fly
Hear the geese out honking' on the bay
Thinking of you, my love, alone in Brewster bay

With Each Beat Of My Heart
With Each Beat Of My Heart
Composer(s): Stevie Wonder
Performer(s): Stevie Wonder; Susie Hansen
Honey, sweet
I've got something to say to you in privacy
Something I'd like for you to hear
And only your ears alone
Secretly, I've been admiring you intensely
So much so I'd like to settle down with you
And make a home
You are my first breath
My first smile
And my morning cup of tea
Yours is the love
That I pray for
Before I go to sleep
From the time I saw your face
I knew no other could erase
My loving you with each beat of my heart
Until the day I heard you speak
I didn't know that sound was sweet
Me hearing you in each beat of my heart
There's a time when playing ends
And the serious begins
Like the love that I felt from the start
With each beat of my heart
Honey, sweet
I soared into a heaven's galaxy
So hypnotized was I
From seeing all the magic in your eyes
So I bring
To you what's been a lifetime fantasy
Of being with the only one who can
Create my paradise
You are my first breath
My first smile
And my morning cup of tea
Yours is the love
That I pray for
Before I go to sleep
From the time I saw your face
I knew no other could erase
My loving you with each beat of my heart
Until the day I heard you speak
I didn't know that sound was sweet
Me hearing you in each beat of my heart
There's a time when playing ends
And the serious begins
Like the love that I felt from the start
With each beat of my heart
There's a time when playing ends
And the serious begins
Like the love that I felt from the start
With each beat of my heart

Alone At Last (Neil Sedaka)
Alone At Last
Composer(s): Phil Cody - Neil Sedaka
Performer(s): Neil Sedaka
and multiple other artists
Alone at last in a hide away
Far away from all the worries in the world
We share each other while the sun's goin' down
Not another soul around
Alone at last you and I
Sunshine plenty of space and time
Heady wine for thirsty souls like yours and mine
We come together like the sea and the sand
In a very private wonderland
Alone at last you and I
Wave goodbye to the crowded nights
City lights we left behind
We love the dreams we shared
And dared to live the dream
The sea in her serenity
Silently cast a spell on you and me
We share each other while the sun's goin' down
Not another soul around
Alone at last
Alone at last you and I
We share each other while the sun's goin' down
Not another soul around
Alone at last
Alone at last you and I

Alone At A Table For Two
Alone At A Table For Two
Composer(s): Billy Hill - Ted Fiorito - Daniel Richman
Performer(s): Guy Lombardo & His Royal Canadians
Usual time, the usual place, the usual orchids and wine
Alone at a table for two
Alone in our own rendezvous
The music is playing
Your favourite request
But I hear a blue note
The band must have guessed
Why I'm alone at a table for two
Pretending I am waiting for you
And even the flowers at your place have withered
They know that we're through
I'm alone at a table for two

Composer(s): Richard Rogers; Lorenz Hart
Performer(s): Doris Day & Harry James;
and various other artists
With a song in my heart, I behold your adorable face
Just a song at the start but it soon is a hymn to your grace
When the music swells, I'm touching your hand
It tells me you're standing near, and
At the sound of your voice, heaven opens its portals to me
Can I help but rejoice that a song such as ours came to be
But I always knew I would live life through
With a song in my heart for you
But I always knew I would live life through
With a song in my heart for you

Alone Again Tonight
Alone Again Tonight
Performer(s): Saga
I've been waiting here so long
For someone I can talk to
Coz I know where we went wrong
But it's really not the time or place
To talk about the problems
Now I've got you face to face
I'll tell you what I'm thinking of
Imagine how my heart feels
Now I know I'm still in love
Oh please don't cry
But I need to tell you one more time
I didn't mean to hurt you
I never meant to complicate your life
If I can hold you
'Cause I don't wanna be alone again tonight
Please don't look away
I've tried to say I'm sorry
For the things I never said
We can talk about who's to blame
But it really doesn't matter
I'm so tired of playing games
Oh please don't cry
But I need to tell you one more time
I didn't mean to hurt you
I never meant to complicate your life
If I can hold you
'Cause I don't wanna be alone again tonight
Oh please don't cry
But I need to tell you one more time
I didn't mean to hurt you
I never meant to complicate your life
If I can hold you
'Cause I don't wanna be alone again tonight

Performer(s): Adriana Caselotti;
and various other artists
With a smile and a song
Life is just a bright sunny day
Your cares fade away
And your heart is young
With a smile and a song
All the world seems to waken anew
Rejoicing with you
As the song is sung
There's no use in grumbling
When the raindrops come tumbling
Remember, you're the one
Who can fill the world with sunshine
When you smile and you sing
Everything is in tune and it's spring
And life flows along
With a smile and a song

Alone
Composer(s): Nacio Herb Brown - Arthur Freed
Performer(s): Tommy Dorsey
Alone
Alone with a sky of romance above
Alone
Alone on a night that was meant for love
There must be someone waiting
Who feels the way I do
Whoever you are, are you, are you...
Alone
Alone on this night that we two could share
Alone
Alone with your kiss that could make me care
And when you come I'll promise to be your very own
Alone
Alone with a heart meant for you
Alone

Alone
Composer(s): Morty Craft - S. Craft
Performer(s): Frankie Valli & the Four Seasons
Alone, why must I be alone
I've spent so many hours with you
How can I be alone
Alone, why must I dream alone
Our dreams where made for us to share
How can I dream alone
There's such a thing as forgiving
So why can't you forgive
There's such a thing as forgetting
Can't you forgive and forget
Apart, why must we be apart
Let's put our hearts together
And never be alone
There's such a thing as forgiving
So why can't you forgive
There's such a thing as forgetting
Can't you forgive and forget
Apart, why must we be apart
Let's put our hearts together
And never be alone

Composer(s): John Lennon; Paul McCartney
Performer(s): The Beatles
What would you think if I sang out of tune
Would you stand up and walk out on me?
Lend me your ears and I'll sing you a song
And I'll try not to sing out of key
Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends
Mm, I get high with a little help from my friends
Mm, gonna try with a little help from my friends
What do I do when my love is away
(Does it worry you to be alone?)
How do I feel by the end of the day
(Are you sad because you're on your own?)
No, I get by with a little help from my friends
Mm, I get high with a little help from my friends
Mm, gonna try with a little help from my friends
Do you need anybody
I need somebody to love
Could it be anybody
I want somebody to love
Would you believe in a love at first sight
Yes I'm certain that it happens all the time
What do you see when you turn out the light
I can't tell you but I know it's mine
Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends
Mm, I get high with a little help from my friends
Mm, gonna try with a little help from my friends
Do you need anybody, I just need someone to love
Could it be anybody, I want somebody to love
Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends

Composer(s): Tom Kelly - Billy Steinberg
First release by: i-TEN - 1983
Covered by multiple other artists
I hear the ticking of the clock
I'm lying here the room's pitch dark
I wonder where you are tonight
No answer on the telephone
And the night goes by so very slow
Oh I hope that it won't end though
Alone
Till now I always got by on my own
I never really cared until I met you
And now it chills me to the bone
How do I get you alone
How do I get you alone
You don't know how long I have wanted to touch your lips and hold you tight, oh
You don't know how long I have waited and I was going to tell you tonight
But the secret is still my own and my love for you is still unknown
Alone
Till now I always got by on my own
I never really cared until I met you
And now it chills me to the bone
How do I get you alone
How do I get you alone
How do I get you alone
How do I get you alone
Alone, alone

With A Little Bit Of Luck
(Dutch Version: As 'T Efkes Kan, Ja Dan)
Composer(s): Alan Jay Lerner - Frederick Loewe
Performer(s): Stanley Holloway, Gordon Dilworth, Rod McLennan
and multiple other artists
The Lord above gave man an arm of iron
So he could do his job and never shirk
The Lord above gave man an arm of iron
But, with a little bit of luck, with a little bit of luck
Someone else will do the blinkin' work
(With a little bit, with a little bit)
(With a little bit of luck you'll never work)
The Lord above made liquor for temptation
To see if man could turn away from sin
The Lord above made liquor for temptation
But, with a little bit of luck, with a little bit of luck
When temptation comes you'll give right in
(With a little bit, with a little bit)
(With a little bit of luck you'll give right in)
Oh you can walk the straight and narrow
But with a little bit of luck you'll run amok
The gentle sex was made for man t'marry
To share his nest and see his food is cooked
The gentle sex was made for man t'marry
But, with a little bit of luck, with a little bit of luck
You can have it all and not get hooked
(With a little bit, with a little bit)
(With a little bit of luck you won't get hooked)
(With a little bit, with a little bit)
(With a little bit of bloomin' luck)
The Lord above made man to help his neighbor
No matter where on land or sea or foam
The Lord above made man to help his neighbor
But, with a little bit of luck, with a little bit of luck
When he comes around you won't be home!!
(With a little bit, with a little bit)
(With a little bit of luck you won't be home)
They're always throwing goodness at you
But, with a little bit of luck a man can duck
Oh it's a crime for man to go philanderin'
And fill his wife's poor heart with grief and doubt
Oh it's a crime for man to go philanderin'
But, with a little bit of luck, with a little bit of luck
You can see the bloodhound don't find out
(With a little bit, with a little bit)
(With a little bit of luck she won't find out)
(With a little bit, with a little bit)
(With a little bit of bloomin' luck)
A man was made to help support his children
Which is the right and proper thing to do
A man was made to help support his children
But, with a little bit of luck, with a little bit of luck
They'll go out and start supporting you
(With a little bit, with a little bit)
(With a little bit of luck they'll work for you)
(He doesn't have a tuppence in his pocket)
(The poorest bloke you'll ever hope to meet)
(He doesn't have a tuppence in his pocket)
(But, with a little bit of luck, with a little bit of luck)
(He'll be movin' up to Easy Street)
(With a little bit, with a little bit)
(With a little bit of luck I'm movin' up)
(With a little bit, with a little bit)
(With a little bit of bloomin' luck)
