Gentle On My Mind

It's knowin' that your door is always open

And you path is free to walk

That makes me tend to keep my sleeping bag rolled up

And stashed behind your couch



It's knowin' I'm not shackled

By forgotten words and bonds

And the heat stains that have dried up on some lovin'

That keeps you in the back roads

By the rivers of my memory

It keeps you ever gentle on my mind 



It's not clinging to the rocks and ivy

Planted on their columns mellowed by me

Or something that somebody said

Because they thought we'd fit together walking 

It's just knowing that the world will not be cursin'

Or forgiving when I walk along some railroad track and find

That you're moving on the back roads 

By the rivers of my memory and for hours

You're just gentle on my mind



Though the wheat fields and the clothes lines

And the junk yards and the highways come between us 

And some other woman's cryin' to her mother

'Cause she turned and I was gone

I still might run in silence

Till' the join might stain my face

And the summer sun might burn me 'till I'm blind 

But not to where I cannot see you

Walking in the back roads

By the rivers flowing gently on my mind



I dip my cup of soup from a gurgling,

cracking cauldron in some train yard

I'm barely runnin' cold how

Have a dirty hat pulled low across my face

Who cupped hands around the tin cans

I pretend to hold you to my breast and find

That you're wavin' from the back roads

By the rivers of my memory

Ever smiling never changes on my mind



Written by James Hartford









Gently

Gently your eyes met mine

Tender, trusting, true

Gently your hand took mine

Thrilled me through and through



Gently, oh so gently

Gentle as the dawn

Gently, oh so gently

Our true love was born



Gently your lips kissed mine

As we strolled along

Gently your heart touched mine

Young and warm and strong



Gently the hour is near

When true loves have to part

Gently we'll meet again

One more kiss, sweetheart



Written by Wizell and Lisbona



G.I. Blues

They give us a room 

with a view of the beautiful Rhine

They give us a room 

with a view of the beautiful Rhine

Gimme a muddy old creek 

in Texas any old time



I've got those hup, two, three, four 

occupation G.I. Blues

From my G.I. hair to the heels of my G.I. shoes

And if I don't go stateside soon

I'm gonna blow my fuse



We get hasenpfeffer 

and black pumpernickel for chow

We get hasenpfeffer 

and black pumpernickel for chow

I'd blow my next month's pay 

for a slice of Texas cow



We'd like to be heroes, 

but all we do here is march

We'd like to be heroes, 

but all we do here is march

And they don't give the Purple Heart 

for a fallen arch



I've got those hup, two, three, four 

occupation G.I. Blues

From my G.I. hair to the heels of my G.I. shoes

And if I don't go stateside soon

I'm gonna blow my fuse



The frauleins are pretty as flowers

But we can't make a pass

The frauleins are pretty as flowers

But we can't make a pass

Cause they're all wearin' signs saying:

"Keepen sie off the grass"



I've got those hup, two, three, four 

occupation G.I. Blues

From my G.I. hair to the heels of my G.I. shoes

And if I don't go stateside soon

I'm gonna blow my fuse



Written by Tepper and Bennett



Girl Happy

Girl happy, yes I'm girl happy,

Girl happy, can't you see



Every girl I see looks good to me

What crazy way I were to be 

I love a life of nothing but beautiful women

Well I'm Girl happy, yes I'm girl happy,

Girl happy, can't you see



Every time I see a pretty face

My heart just heads for outer space

I need a girl to make my life worth of living

Yes, I'm Girl happy, yes I'm girl happy,

Girl happy, can't you see



I've been like this since I was just a baby boy

First nurse that rocked my cradle made me jump to joy

Mama keep your daughter out of sight

I'm in a lovin' mood tonight

I love a life of nothing but beautiful women

Well I'm Girl happy, yes I'm girl happy,

Girl happy, can't you see



I've been like this since I was just a baby boy

First nurse that rocked my cradle made me jump to joy

Girl happy, well I'm girl happy,

Yes I'm girl happy, can't you see

Girl happy, said I'm girl happy,

Yes I'm girl happy, can't you see



Written by Pomus and Meade



Girl Next Door Went A'walking

The girl next door went a'walking

She found the boy she likes

She wanted to get married

Settle down for life



The girl next door went a'walking

She knew it wasn't right

She came home at half past ten

Late every night



The girl next door went a'walking

She found the boy she likes

She wanted to get married

Settle down for life



She didn't know love was so grand

She never took love second hand

But to my surprise

She thought that love was paradise



The girl next door went a'walking

She found the boy she likes

She wanted to get married

Settle down for life



The girl next door went a'walking

She knew it wasn't right

She came home at half past ten

Late every night



The girl next door went a'walking

She found the boy she likes

She wanted to get married

Settle down for life



She didn't know love was so grand

She never took love second hand

But to my surprise

She thought that love was paradise



The girl next door went a'walking

She found the boy she likes

She wanted to get married

Settle down for life



Now the two are married

Settled down for life

She walks by hand in hand

Late every night



The girl next door went a'walking

She found the boy she likes

She wanted to get married

Settle down for life

Settle down for life

Settle down for life

Settle down for life



Written by Thomas Wayne



Girl Of Mine

When your asleep beside me, I watch you lying there

Your hand upon the pillow and moonlight in your hair

I get the warmest feeling, so good I almost cry

I kiss your sleeping lips and say I'll love you 'till I die



Oh girl of mine you make my day

One sunny smile and all the clouds just roll away

Eyes deep as the sea seem to say to me

Our love will always be

So girl of mine turn out the light

And in my arms together we'll make sweet love tonight

Down life's golden road and you'll always know

I love you ... girl of mine



Sometimes I know I hurt you when things ain't goin' right

I walk away and leave you to face the lonely night

I wouldn't blame you darlin' if you walked out on me

But I return to find you there still waiting patiently



Oh girl of mine you make my day

One sunny smile and all the clouds just roll away

Eyes deep as the sea seem to say to me

Our love will always be

So girl of mine turn out the light

And in my arms together we'll make sweet love tonight

Down life's golden road and you'll always know

I love you ... girl of mine



Written by Reed and Mason



Girls! Girls! Girls!

Girls, goin' swimming,

Girl, in bikinis,

A walkin' and wigglin' by, yay, yay, yay

Girls, on the beaches,

Girls, oh, what a peaches,

So pretty, Lord I could cry

I'm just a red blooded boy

And I can't stop thinkin' about



Girls, sailin' sailboats,

Girls, water skiin',

They'll drive me out of my mind, yay, yay, yay

Girls, big and brassy,

Girls, small and sassy,

Just give me one of each kind



I'm just a red blooded boy

And I can't stop thinkin' about

Girls! Girls! Girls! Girls!



And when I pick up a sandwich too much

A crunchy crunchety

A crunchety crunch

I never ever get to finish my lunch

Because there's always bound to be a bunch of 



Girls, in tight sweaters,

Girls, in short dresses,

A walkin' and wigglin' by, yay, yay, yay

Girls, out boatin'

Girls, just a floatin'

So pretty, Lord I could cry.



I'm just a red blooded boy

And I can't stop thinkin' about

Girls! Girls! Girls! Girls! Girls! Girls!



Written by Leiber and Stoller



Give Me The Right

Give me the right

To hold you tonight

The tears that I’ve cried over you

Give me the right



You can't say no

When I need you so

I want you back in my arms

Give me the right



If you looked deep in your heart

Like I looked into mine

You'll find that nothing has changed

Our love was there all the time



Why make me plead

For something you need

I want to bring back the thrill

Give me the right

Give me the right



Written by Blagman and Wise



Go East, Young Man

I'm gonna go where the desert sun is

Go where I know the fun is

Go where the harem girls dance

Go where there's love and romance



Out on the burning sands, in some caravan

I'll find adventure, while I can

To say the least, go on, go east young man



Go east young man, go east young man

You'll feel like a sheik, so rich and grand

With dancing girls at your command

Go eat and drink and feast, go east young man



I'm gonna go where the night's enchanted

Go where those dreams are granted

When paradise starts calling, into some tent I'm crawling



I hear those desert drums, and when nighttime comes

Then I'll make love the way I planned

To say the least, go on, go east young man



Go east young man, go east young man

You'll feel like a sheik, so rich and grand

With dancing girls at your command

Go eat and drink and feast, go east young man



Go eat and drink and feast, go east young man



Written by Giant, Baume and Kaye



Goin' Home

This proud wild land where the wind blows free

Has always been a part of me

It's in my blood, I just can't get it out

For a hundred miles a man can see

And be about as wild as he wants to be

If he feels like shouting all he's gotta do is shout



Where the purple mountains reach up high

And look like they're gonna touch the sky

Where the canyon walls have stood for a million years

Where the days are hot, the nights are cold

The desert sand looks just like gold

These trails were carved in sweat and blood and tears



Where the painted desert as you pass by

Looks like a rainbow in the sky

The cactus blooms in the early morning sun

Where the nightwings sing and eagles fly

The clouds paint pictures in the sky

The coyotes howl tells you when the day is done



I'm coming home, this time I'm gonna stay

I'm coming home and I ain't never goin' away

My feet are itching to get back home

I've had the desert fever since I've been gone

I need some loving so bad that I can't see

When a woman looks a man in the eye

You know it takes a man to satisfy

Thinking about them girls is killing me



I'm going home, going home

Going home, I'm going home

Going home, going home

Going home



Written by Joe Byers



Golden Coins

Say you're mine, then ask me what you will

All your dreams, my darling I'll fulfill



Golden coins, I will bring to you

Silver trinkets and rubies too

In return dear I'm begging you

For the pleasures of love



I'll bring gifts, like you never saw

Priceless garments that you'll adore

Persian rugs to enhance your floor

For the pleasures of love



Darling, choose anything you please

Rich brocade, or woven tapestries

In exchange, I plead on my knees

For the pleasure of love



Golden coins, I'll place at your feet

Precious jewels to make life complete

All my treasures are yours my sweet



For the pleasures of love



Written by Kaye, Baum and Giant



Gonna Get Back Home Somehow

Hear that old train whistle

howling in the night

If that flyer's southbound

Everything will be all right



I'm leaving now, leaving now, leaving now,

I'm gonna get back home somehow



Don't nobody tell me

baby's been untrue

If she's been unfaithful

I don't know what I'll do



I'm leaving now, leaving now, leaving now

I'm gonna get back home somehow



Never thought that I could miss her so

I never thought I could , now I know



The sound of the old train whistle

Makes me want to cry

Reminds me of that lonely feeling

When I said goodbye



I'm leaving now, leaving now, leaving now

I'm gonna get back home somehow



Written by Shuman and Pumas



Good Luck Charm

Don't want a four leaf clover

Don't want an old horse shoe

Want your kiss 'cause I just can't miss

With a good luck charm like you



Come on and be my little good luck charm

Uh-huh huh, you sweet delight

I want a good luck charm 

a-hanging on my arm

To have, to have, to hold, to hold tonight



Don't want a silver dollar

Rabbit's foot on a string

The happiness in your warm caress

No rabbit's foot can bring



Come on and be my little good luck charm

Uh-huh huh, you sweet delight

I want a good luck charm 

a-hanging on my arm

To have, to have, to hold, to hold tonight



If I found a lucky penny

I'd toss it across the bay

Your love is worth all the gold on earth

No wonder that I say



Come on and be my little good luck charm

Uh-huh huh, you sweet delight

I want a good luck charm 

a-hanging on my arm

To have, to have, to hold, to hold tonight



Written by Gold and Schroeder

I say, well, meet me in a hurry 

behind the barn,

Don't you be afraid, darling,

'Cause tonight I'm gonna rock away

all my blues.

Come on and rock, rock, rock,

Well, rock, rock, rock, rock,

Let's rock, rock, rock, rock,

We're gonna rock all our blues away.



Written by Roy Brown



Good Time Charlie's Got The Blues

Everybody's gone away

Said they're movin to L.A.

There's not a soul I know around

Everybody's leavin' town



Some caught a freight, some caught a plane

Found the sunshine in the rain

They said this town's will waste their time

I guess they're right, it's wasting mine



Some gotta win, some gotta lose

Good time Charlie's got the blues

Good time Charlie's got the blues



You know my heart keeps tellin' me

You're not a kid at thirty-three

Play around you'll lose your wife

You play it too long you'll lose your life



Some gotta win, some gotta lose

Good time Charlie's got the blues

Good time Charlie's got the blues

Good time Charlie's got the blues



Some gotta win, some gotta lose

Good time Charlie's got the blues

Good time Charlie's got the blues

Good time Charlie's got the blues

Got A Lot O' Livin To Do

Oh yes I’ve got a lot o' living to do

A whole lot o' loving to do

Come on baby, to make a party takes two

Oh yes I’ve got a lot o' living to do

A whole lot o' loving to do

And there's no one who I'd rather do it with-a than you



There's a moon that's big and bright in the milky way tonight

But the way you act you never would know it's there

So baby, time's a wasting

A lot of kisses I ain't been tasting

I don't know about you but I’m gonna get my share



Oh got a lot o' living to do

A whole lot o' loving to do

Come on baby, to make a party takes two

Oh yes I’ve got a lot o' living to do

A whole lot o' loving to do

And there's no one who I'd rather do it with-a than you



There's a balmy little breeze

That's whistling through the trees

And it's telling you to pitch a little woo with me

Why don't you take a listen

You'll never know what you've been missing

Cuddle up a little closer and be my little honey bee



Oh got a lot o' living to do

A whole lot o' loving to do

Come on baby, to make a party takes two

Oh yes I’ve got a lot o' living to do

A whole lot o' loving to do

And there's no one who I'd rather do it with-a than you



You're the prettiest thing I’ve seen

But you treat me so doggone mean

Ain't you got no heart, I’m dying to hold you near

Why do you keep me waiting

Why don't you start co-operating

And the things I say are things you want to hear



Oh got a lot o' living to do

A whole lot o' loving to do

Come on baby, to make a party takes two

Oh yes I’ve got a lot o' living to do

A whole lot o' loving to do

And there's no one who I'd rather do it with-a than you

Green, Green Grass Of Home

The old home town looks the same,

As I step down from the train,

And there to meet me is my mama and papa

Down the road I look and there runs Mary

Hair of gold and lips like cherries

It's good to touch the green, green grass of home



Yes, they'll all be there to meet me, 

All creatures smiling sweetly

It's good to touch the green, green grass of home



The old house is still standing, 

Though the paint is cracked and dry

And there's an old oak tree that I used to play on

Down the lane I'll walk with my sweet Mary

Hair of gold and lips like cherries

It's good to touch the green, green grass of home



Then I awake and look around me

Cold gray walls surround me

And I realize that I was only dreamin'

There's a guard and there's a sad old padre

Arm and arm we'll walk at daybreak

Again I'll touch the green, green grass of home



Yes, they'll all be there to meet me

In the shadow of that old oak tree

As they lay me beneath the green, green grass of home



Written by Claude Putman

Guitar Man

Well, I quit my job down at the car wash,

Left my mama a goodbye note,

By sundown I'd left Kingston,

With my guitar under my coat,

I hitchhiked all the way down to Memphis,

Got a room at the YMCA,

For the next three weeks I went huntin' them nights,

Just lookin' for a place to play,

Well, I thought my pickin' would set 'em on fire,

But nobody wanted to hire a guitar man.



Well, I nearly 'bout starved to death down in Memphis,

I run outta money and luck,

So I bought me a ride down to Macon, Georgia,

On a overloaded poultry truck,

I thumbed on down to Panama City,

Started pickin' out some o' them all night bars,

Hopin' I could make myself a dollar,

Makin' music on my guitar,

I got the same old story at them all night piers,

There ain't no room around here for a guitar man

We don't need a guitar man, son



So I slept in the hobo jungles,

Roamed a thousand miles of track,

Till I found myself in Mobile Alabama,

At a club they call Big Jack's,

A little four-piece band was jammin',

So I took my guitar and I sat in,

I showed 'em what a band would sound like,

With a swingin' little guitar man.

Show 'em, son



If you ever take a trip down to the ocean,

Find yourself down around Mobile,

Make it on out to a club called Jack's,

If you got a little time to kill,

Just follow that crowd of people,

You'll wind up out on his dance floor,

Diggin' the finest little five-piece group,

Up and down the Gulf of Mexico,

Guess who's leadin' that five-piece band,

Well, wouldn't ya know, it's that swingin' little guitar man.

Written by Hubbard
