Cats Under The Stars
Cats Under The Stars
Composer(s): Jerry Garcia - Robert Hunter
Performer(s): Jerry Garcia Band; Pickin' On; Melvin Seals
Cats on the blacktop, birdie in the treetop
Someone plays guitar that sounds like cla-vi-nette
I ain't ready yet, to go to bed
Think I'll take a walk downtown instead
Cats on the bandstand
Give'em each a big hand
Anyone who sweats like that must be all right
No one wants to fight; no blackeye
Just another cat beneath the stars tonight
Cats in the limelight, feels like it's alright
Everybody wants something they might not get
I ain' ready yet, it ain't complete
That's why I am headin' down to Alleycat Street
Sa-tin blouse unbuttoning
Sa-tin blouse unbuttoning
Time is a stripper doin' it just for you
Time is a stripper doin' it just for you
Just for you
Just For You
Knock in the brass tacks, cover up your tracks Jack
You ain't nowhere till you can pay your own way back
What else do you lack to make it right
But cats down under the stars tonight

Fooled Around And Fell In Love
Fooled Around And Fell In Love
Composer(s): Elvin Bishop
Performer(s): Elvin Bishop;
and various other artists
I must have been through about a million girls
I'd love 'em then I'd leave 'em alone
I didn't care how much they cried, no sir
Their tears left me cold as a stone
But then I fooled around and fell in love
I fooled around and fell in love, yes I did
I fooled around and fell in love, I fooled around and fell in love
It used to be when I'd see a girl that I liked
I'd get out my book and write down her name
But when the grass got a little greener over on the other side
I'd just tear out that page
I fooled around and fell in love
I fooled around and fell in love, since I met you baby
I fooled around and fell in love, I fooled around and fell in love
Free, on my own is the way I used to be
Ah, but since I met you baby, love's got a hold on me
It's got a hold on me now, I can't let go of you baby
I fooled around and fell in love
I fooled around and fell in love, oh yes I did
I fooled around, fooled around, fooled around, fooled around,
fooled around, fooled around, fell in love
Fooled around, fooled around, fooled around, fooled around,
fooled around, fooled around, fell in love
I fooled around, fell in love
I fell in love, I fell in love, yes I did

The First Thing You Know
The First Thing You Know
Composer(s): Alan Jay Lerner - André Previn
Performer(s): Lee Marvin
God made the mountains
God made the sky
God made the people
God knows why
He fixed up the planet
As best as He could
Then in come the people
And gum it up good
The first thing you know
They civilized the foothills
And everywhere He put hills
The mountains and valley below
They come along and take 'em
And civilize and make 'em
A place where no civilized
Person would go
The first thing you know
The first thing you know
They civilize what's pretty
By puttin' up a city
Where nothin' that's
Pretty can grow
They muddy up the winter
And civilize it into
A place too uncivilized
Even for snow
The first thing you know
They civilize left
They civilize right
Till nothing is left
Till nothing is right
They civilize freedom
Till no one is free
No one except
By coincidence, me
The first thing you know
The boozer's in prison
And the criminally isn't
And only the rascals have dough
When I see a parson
I gotta put my arse in
A wagon that follows the tail of a crow
The first thing you know
I pick up a blow!
The first thing you know

Cat's In The Cradle
Cat's In The Cradle
Composer(s): Sandy Chapin - Harry Chapin
First release by: Harry Chapin - 1974
Covered by multiple other artists
My child arrived just the other day
He came to the world in the usual way
But there were planes to catch, and bills to pay
He learned to walk while I was away
And he was talking 'fore I knew it, and as he grew
He'd say, "I'm gonna be like you, dad
You know I'm gonna be like you"
And the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon
Little boy blue and the man in the moon
"When you coming home, dad?" "I don't know when
But we'll get together then
You know we'll have a good time then"
My son turned ten just the other day
He said, "Thanks for the ball, dad, come on let's play
Can you teach me to throw?" I said, "Not today
I got a lot to do"
He said, "That's ok"
And he walked away, but his smile never dimmmed
Said, "I'm gonna be like him, yeah
You know I'm gonna be like him"
And the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon
Little boy blue and the man in the moon
"When you coming home, dad?" "I don't know when
But we'll get together then
You know we'll have a good time then"
Well, he came from college just the other day
So much like a man I just had to say
"Son, I'm proud of you
Can you sit for a while?"
He shook his head, and he said with a smile
"What I'd really like, dad, is to borrow the car keys
See you later
Can I have them please?"
And the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon
Little boy blue and the man in the moon
"When you coming home, son?" "I don't know when
But we'll get together then, dad
You know we'll have a good time then"
I've long since retired and my son's moved away
I called him up just the other day
I said, "I'd like to see you if you don't mind"
He said, "I'd love to, dad, if I could find the time
You see, my new job's a hassle, and the kid's got the flu
But it's sure nice talking to you, dad
It's been sure nice talking to you"
And as I hung up the phone, it occurred to me
He'd grown up just like me
My boy was just like me
And the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon
Little boy blue and the man in the moon
"When you coming home, son?" "I don't know when
But we'll get together then, dad
You know we'll have a good time then"

Fool, Fool, Fool (The Clovers)
Fool, Fool, Fool
Composer(s): Ahmet Ertegun
Performer(s): The Clovers
and multiple other artists
Fool, fool, fool that I was to fall for you
Fool, fool, fool that I was to fall for you
Oh what a fool I was, to think you could love me too
Well, the first time that I saw you, you looked so doggone sweet
When you walked down the street, I said 'There goes my meat'
(Needless to say, Kay Starr's version didn't have this line)
Fool, fool, fool that I was to fall for you
Oh what a fool I was, to think you could love me too
I can't forget you darlin', though I'm left out in the cold
I guess I still love you, and will always feel the same
Fool, fool, fool that I was to fall for you
Oh what a fool I was, to think you could love me too

The First Hello, The Last Goodbye
The First Hello, The Last Goodbye
Composer(s): Cardew Robinson - Roger Whittaker
Performer(s): Roger Whittaker
They say when you gain a lover
You begin to lose a friend
That the end of the beginning’s
The beginning of the end
They say the moment that you’re born
Is when you start to die
And the first time that we said hello
Began our last goodbye
We know each summer’s coming
Means the winter’s waiting there
And gold would not be precious
If we all had gold to spare
You only know how low is low
The first time that you fly
And the first time that we said hello
Began our last goodbye
If I could live forever
It is certain I would never know
Another single second so sublime
At the moment of our meeting
When our hands first touched in greeting
How I wanted to hold back the hands of time
When they begin the overture
They start to end the show
When you think I’ll never need you
Then I knew that you would go
The sound of all our laughter
Is now echoed in a sigh
And the first time that we said hello
Began our last goodbye
If I could live forever
It’s certain I would never know
Another single second so sublime
At the moment of our meeting
When our hands first touched in greeting
How I wanted to hold back the hands of time, oh yes
When they begin the overture
They start to end the show
When you think I’ll never need you
Then I knew that you would go
The sound of all our laughter
Is now echoed in a sigh
And the first time that we said hello
Began our last goodbye
And the first time that we said hello
Began our last goodbye

Fool To Myself
Fool To Myself
Composer(s): Gerry Marsden
Performer(s): Gerry & The Pacemakers
I've been a fool, yes a fool to myself
To think that you were mine
I never thought you'd be so wild
You played around with everyone anytime at all
I thought you were bein' friendly when you took them home to tea
I've been a fool, yes a fool to myself
I've been a fool, yes a fool to myself
When I used to ring you & you said you were ill in bed
I should've realized, yes you were ill but in your head
There's only one thing left for me to say, it's this, my friend
I've been a fool, yes a fool to myself
I've been a fool, yes a fool to myself
Life, I know, is not a dream
A dream of your A T
But must you go & try to make some kind of monkey out of me?
If this life you're livin' suits your temperament & your face
I'm ever tryin' to change it, I will leave you in disgrace
There's only one thing left for me to say, it's this, my friend
I've been a fool, yes a fool to myself
I've been a fool, yes a fool to myself

I’ve made a date for the first day of summer
A date when the skies are blue

We will meet at the church of St. Mary
When the joy bells begin to chime
What a wonderful day for a wedding
The first day of summer time
What a wonderful day for a wedding
The first day of summer time

Don't want your love anymore
Don't want your kisses that's for sure
I die each time I hear this sound
Here he comes, that's Cathy's clown
I've gotta stand tall
You know a man can't crawl
For when he knows you're tellin' lies
And he lets them pass him by
He's not a man at all
Don't want your love anymore
Don't want your kisses that's for sure
I die each time I hear this sound
Here he comes, that's Cathy's clown
When you see me shed a tear
And you know that it's sincere
Don't you think it's kind of sad
That you're treating me so bad
Or don't you even care
Don't want your love anymore
Don't want your kisses that's for sure
I die each time I hear this sound
Here he comes, that's Cathy's clown
That's Cathy's clown.....

Cathy
Composer(s): Sammy Cahn - Jimmy Van Heusen
Performer(s): Vic Damone; Shelly Manne; Buddy Rich
If you never met an angel then you must meet Cathy
Cathy's everything you've dreamed an angel ought to be
There's music everytime she sighs
Her smile is every sweet surprise
You simply won't believe your eyes wait and see
Chapel windows when they catch the morning sun that's Cathy
How can merely touching someone's hand seem so divine
You might as well prepare to fall in love with Cathy
Or you'll lose your heart to Cathy just as I lost mine
You might as well prepare to fall in love with Cathy
Or you'll lose your heart to Cathy just as I lost mine
Yes you'll lose your heart to Cathy just as I lost mine

Fool that I am
For falling in love with you
And, fool that I am
For thinking you loved me, too
You took my heart
Then played the part of little coquette
And, my dreams just disappeared
Like the smoke from a cigarette
Fool that I am
For hoping you’d understand
And thinking you
Would listen, too
And, oh, the things I had planned
But we couldn’t see eye to eye
So, darling, darling, darling
This is goodbye
But I still care, but I still care
And oh, fool that I am
Oh, but I still care
Fool that I am

Well they call me the fireman, that's my name
Making my rounds all over town, putting out old flames

Cathouse Blues
Cathouse Blues
Performer(s): Stevie Nicks
Cathouse blues
I wear the high airs
The high heel shoes
Whoa ...
Darling, it's hard to be surrounded
Where the women are lazy
And the men are rude
I got the cat walk, don't talk blues
I creep on cat's feet
I don't speak loose
Your self in velvet
Forget we ever met
I got the clothes
And the cathouse blues
Blue-gray eyes that say
I guess you don't remember
I guess that I was younger
To say the cat sleeps alone
Sleeps only in the sun
But shield away the night
And she'll be gone
Singing the cathouse blues
I need some new red velvet shoes
I'm still a dreamer's fancy
They say I'm pretty classy
I'm just a feline-silky cat come true
I'm just a feline-silky cat come true
I'm just a feline-silky cat come true
Yeah ...

Fool Number One
Fool Number One
Composer(s): Kathryn R. Fulton
Performer(s): Brenda Lee
Am I fool number one or am I fool number two
How many other girls have been fooled by you
I suppose that the number is far from being small
And I'll bet that I'm the biggest fool of all
If I had the chance I guess I'd do it all again
I'd go down that same old road even knowing at the end
You'll leave me when your heart hears a new love call
So I'll guess that I'm the biggest fool of all
Am I fool number one or am I fool number two
How many other girls have been fooled by you
I suppose that the number is far from being small
And I'll guess that I'm the biggest fool of all

Covered by multiple other artists
Here comes old Rosie she's looking mighty fine
Here comes hot Nancy she's steppin' right on time
There go the street lights bringin on the night
Here come the men faces hidden from the light
All through the shadows they come and they go
With only one thing in common
They got the fire down below
Here comes the rich man in his big long limousine
Here comes the poor man all you got to have is green
Here comes the banker and the lawyer and the cop
One thing for certain it ain't never gonna stop
When it all gets too heavy
That's when they come and go
With only one thing in common
They got the fire down below
It happens out in Vegas happens in Moline
On the blue blood streets of Boston
Up in Berkeley and out in Queens
And it went on yesterday and it's going on tonight
Somewhere there's somebody ain't treatin' somebody right
And he's looking out for Rosie and she's looking mighty fine
And he's walking the streets for Nancy
And he'll find her everytime
When the street light flicker bringing ont he night
Well they'll be slipping into darkness slipping out of sight
All through the midnight
Watch 'em come and watch 'em go
With only one thing in common
They got the fire down below
