A Good Time
A Good Time
Composer(s): John Prine
Performer(s): John Prine
Time was once just a clock to me
And life was just a book a biography
Success was something you just had to be
And I would spend myself unknowingly
And you know that I could have me a million more friends
And all I’d have to lose is my point of view
But I had no idea what a good time would cost
Till last night when I sat and talked with you
An apple will spoil if it’s been abused
A candle disappears when it’s been used
A rainbow may follow up a hurricane
And I can’t leave forever on a train
And you know that I’d survive if I never spoke again
And all I’d have to lose is my vanity
But I had no idea what a good time would cost
Till last night when you sat and talked with me
You can smile for the lack of something else to do
And no one will laugh and point a finger at you
If your tears didn’t always make me feel so bad
Would you still cry every time that you felt sad?
I thought I’d heard and seen enough to get along
Till you said something neither of us knew
And I had no idea what a good time would cost
Till last night when I sat and talked with you

You're My Home
You're My Home
Composer(s): Billy Joel
Performer(s): Billy Joel
and various other artists
When you look into my eyes
And you see the crazy gypsy in my soul
It always comes as a surprise
When I feel my withered roots begin to grow
Well I never had a place that I could call my very own
But that's all right, my love, 'cause you're my home
When you touch my weary head
And you tell me everything will be all right
You say, "Use my body for your bed
And my love will keep you warm throughout the night"
Well I'll never be a stranger and I'll never be alone
Wherever we're together, that's my home
Home can be the Pennsylvania Turnpike
Indiana's early mornin' dew
High up in the hills of California
Home is just another word for you
Well, I never had a place that I could call my very own
But that's all right, my love, 'cause you're my home
If I travel all my life
And I never get to stop and settle down
Long as I have you by my side
There's a roof above and good walls all around
You're my castle, you're my cabin and my instant pleasure dome
I need you in my house, 'cause you're my home
You're my home
You're my home ...

Aquellos Ojos Verdes
Aquellos Ojos Verdes
((English Version: Green Eyes (by Jane Froman))
Composer(s): Nilo Menéndez - Adolfo Utrera
Performer(s): Gloria Jean
and multiple other artists
Fueron tus ojos los que me dieron
el tema dulce de mi canción
Tus ojos verdes, claros, serenos
ojos que han sido mi ispiración
Aquellos ojos verdes de mirada serena
dejaron en mi alma eterna sed de amar
Anhelos y caricias de besos y ternuras
de todas las dulzuras que sabían brindar
Aquellos ojos verdes, serenos como un lago
en cuyas quietas aguas un día me miré
No saben la tristezas que en mi alma han dejado
Aquellos ojos verdes que ya nunca olvidaré

You're My Girl
You're My Girl
Composer(s): Sammy Cahn; Jule Styne
Performer(s): Jack Jones;
and various other artists
You're my girl, the boys all know
You're my girl, I've told them so
You should have seen how their faces fell
When they were wishing me well
They called me a lucky guy
And I couldn't hide a feeling of pride
You're my girl, I've chosen you
To be mine my whole life through
And if this heart of mine had a voice
You'd hear it second my choice
You're what I've waited for
And you're my girl.
(Musical Break)
And if this heart of mine had a voice
You'd hear it second my choice
You're what I've waited for
And you're my girl

A Good Man Is Hard To Find
A Good Man Is Hard To Find
Composer(s): Eddie Green
Performer(s): Eddie Green
and multiple other artists
My heart is sad and I'm all alone
my man's treating me mean
I regret the day that I was born
And the man I ever seen
My happiness is less today
My heart is broke, that's why I say
Lord, a good man is hard to find
You always get another kind
Just when you think that he's your pal
You look and find him foolin' 'round some old gal
Then you rave, you all crave
You want to see him in his grave
So if your man is nice, take my advice;
Hug him in the morning, kiss him at night
Give him plenty lovin'; treat your good man right
Oh, a good man is so hard to find
We always get that roughed old kind
Just when you think that he's your pal
You like and find him hangin' 'round some old gal
Then you rave, how you crave
You wanna see him dead layin' in his grave
So if your man is nice, take my advice
Hug him in the morning, kiss him at night
Give him plenty love madam, treat your man right
'Cause a good man nowadays sure is hard to find

You're My Everything (The Temptations)
You're My Everything
Composer(s): Cornelius Grant;
Roger Penzabene; Norman Whitfield
Performer(s): The Temptations
You surely must know magic, girl
Because you changed my life
It was dull and ordinary
You made it sunny and bright
I was blessed the day I found you
I'm gonna build my whole world around you
You're everything good, girl
And you're all that matters to me
When my way was dark
And trouble was near
Your love provided the light
So I could see, girl
Just knowing your love was near
When times were bad
Kept the world from closing in on me
I was blessed the day I found you
I'm gonna build my whole world around you
You're everything good, girl
And you're all that matters to me
Baby, you're part of every thought I think each day
Your name's in every phrase my lips say
Every dream I dream is about you
Baby I couldn't live without you
Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
You're my everything
You're my everything
You're the girl I sing about
In every love song I sing
You're my winter, baby
My summer, my fall and spring
I was blessed the day I found you
I'm gonna build my whole world around you
You're everything good, girl
And you're all that matters to me
You're my everything
You're my everything (fade out)

A Good Heart
A Good Heart
Composer(s): Maria McKee
First release by: Feargal Sharkey - 1985
I hear a lot of stories, I suppose they could be true
All about love and what it can do for you
High is the risk of striking out, the risk of getting hurt
And still I have so much to learn
Well I know 'cause I think about it all the time
I know that real love is hard to find
And a good heart these days is hard to find
True love, the lasting kind
A good heart these days is hard to find
So please be gentle with this heart of mine
My expectations may be high, I blame it on my youth
Soon enough I'll learn the painful truth
I'll face it like a fighter then boast how I've grown
Anything is better than being alone
Well I know 'cause I learn a little every day
I know 'cause I listen when the experts say that...
A good heart these days is hard to find
True love, the lasting kind
A good heart these days is hard to find
So please be gentle with this heart of mine
As I reflect on all my childhood dreams
My ideas od love weren't as foolish as they seemed
If I don't start looking now I'll be left behind
And a good heart these days, it's hard to find
Well I know, it's a dream I'm willing to defend
I know it will be worth it in the end
A good heart these days is hard to find
True love, the lasting kind
A good heart these days is hard to find
So please be gentle with this heart of mine

and various other artists
You're my everything underneath the sun
You're my everything rolled up into one
You're my only dream, my only real reality
You're my idea of a perfect personality
You're my everything, everything I need
You're the song I sing and the book I read
You're a way beyond belief and just to make it brief
You're my winter, summer, spring, my everything
You're my everything (everything I need)
You're the song I sing and the book I read
You're a way beyond belief and just to make it brief
You're my winter, summer, spring, my everything

You're My Best Poker Hand
You're My Best Poker Hand
Composer(s): Junior Burghardt
Performer(s): T-Bone Walker; Deluxe Blues Band
I've got a five card hand and I don't know how to play
I've got a five card hand and I don't know how to play
I need a queen like you to make my hand OK
The kid drew three aces and stacked them back to back
The kid drew three aces and stacked them back to back
I looked at my hand and not a smile did I crack
When the deal goes down I've only drawed one card
When the deal goes down I've only drawed one card
And if you play poker, you know that sure is hard
The kid spread his hand and began to blush
The kid spread his hand and then began to blush
But his face turned pale when he saw my queen high flush

A Golden Handshake For Every Daughter
A Golden Handshake For Every Daughter
Composer(s): Gary Daly - Eddie Lundon
Performer(s): China Crisis
We sat by the river
Talking for hours
I cried myself to sleep
Push me gently
Ever so gently
The water's far too deep
Some say, some say tomorrow
Hide behind, hide behind your sorrow
A golden handshake for every daughter
And a piece of the wedding cake
Run from your houses
And your summer lovers
Love is all you can take

You're More Than Fair
You're More Than Fair
Composer(s): Ian Dury; Russell Hardy
Performer(s): Ian Dury;
Kilburn & The High Roads
You're more than fair, you've got a gorgeous bum
Why don't you come to my house and meet my mum
I like your titties, they're nice and small
Let me have a squeeze in my front hall
Satin drawers I want to run a hand in
I want to snap them off you as we reach the landing
A tender moment, don't let nothing spoil it
I shall caress your clitoris as we reach the toilet
You're more than fair, you're warm and soft
Remove the trousers as we reach the loft
To taste the pudding, you've got to try the proof
You can try the pudding on the roof
The roof's the only place I know

You're More Than A Number In My Little Red Book
Composer(s): Roger Greenaway; Tony Macaulay
Performer(s): The Drifters;
The Embers; Fantastic Shakers
oooooooooo yeah yeah
You're more than a number in my little red book
you're more than a one night date
All it had to take me was just one look
My heart began a thumpin'
Babe you had it jumpin'
'Cause you're more than a number in my little red book
You're more than a one night stand
In case you get to thinkin' that you'd been took
You're more than a number
Written in my little red book
Oh baby give us a chance
Don't let the small town rumours
end our first real romance
Now I admit I've loved a few
But there was never one like you
So Darlin, dont believe the things that they say
Chorus
You're more than a number in my little red book
You're more than a one night date
All it had to take me was just one look
My heart began a thumpin'
Babe you had it jumpin
'Cause you're more than a number in my little red book
You're more than a one night stand
In case you get to thinkin' that you'd been took
You're more than a number
Written in my little red book
Oh baby
You gave me a sign
I threw away the numbers
of those old flames of mine
And now they're tryin' to put you whilst
Knock me down in my girls eyes
Oh Darlin, Dont believe the words that they say
Chorus
You're more than a number in my little red book
You're more than a one night date
All it had to take me was just one look
My heart began a thumpin'
Babe you had it jumpin
'Cause you're more than a number in my little red book
You're more than a one night stand
In case you get to thinkin' that you'd been took
You're more than a number
Written in my little red book
Chorus to fade
Whoooo ooooo
You're more than a number in my little red book
You're more than a one night date
All it had to take me was just one look
My heart began a thumpin'
Babe you had it jumpin
'Cause you're more than a number in my little red book
You're more than a one night stand
In case you get to thinkin' that you'd been took
You're more than a number
Written in my little red book

A Girlie Was Just Made To Love
A Girlie Was Just Made To Love
Composer(s): Joe Goodwin - George W. Meyer
There's reason for all this worlds goodness
There's reason for everything bad
There's reason for us to know gladness
And reason sometime to feel sad
The love that we bear has a meaning
That loved ones can understand best
Evry thing in this life, ervy care, every strife
Was meant to be put to the test
To every heart bowed down with sadness
To every heart pining each day
Some times there will come bits of gladness
To drive thoughts of sorrow away
The sweetness that comes unexpected
Tastes sweeter than ever before
And the troubles we bear, fade away into air
And make life worth living the more
A child was just made to grow older
Troubles were made to be missed
Arms were just made for caressing
And lips were just made to be kissed
A heart was just made to grow tender
A rain drop to fall from above
A boy was just made for a girlie
And a girlie was just made to love
