Cause you know my love is true

Darling please please love me too

I Believe

I believe for every drop of rain that falls

A flower grows

I believe that somewhere in the darkest night

A candle glows

I believe for everyone who goes astray, someone will come

To show the way

I believe, I believe



I believe above a storm the smallest prayer

Can still be heard

I believe that someone in the great somewhere

Hears every word



Everytime I hear a new born baby cry,

Or touch a leaf or see the sky

Then I know why, I believe



Everytime I hear a new born baby cry,

Or touch a leaf or see the sky

Then I know why, I believe



Written by Drake, Graham, Stillman and Shirl

I Believe In The Man In The Sky

The steps that lead to any church

Form a stairway to a star

They're part of God and should be trod

More often than they are



I believe in the man in the sky

I believe with his help I’ll get by

My footsteps may falter

My eyes may grow dim

But he's my Gibraltar

I'm trusting in him



Though a sparrow is all I may be

On me he will still keep an eye

Yes I’m singing his praise

Till the end of my days

I believe in the man in the sky



Sparrow, sparrow am I

Keep an eye

Yes I’m singing his praise

Till the end of my days

I believe in the man in the sky



Written by Richard Howard

I Can Help

If you've got a problem, I don't care what it is

If you need a hand, I can assure you this

I can help, I've got two strong arms, I can help

It would sure do me good to do you good,

Let me help



It's a fact that people get lonely, ain't nothing new

But a woman like you baby, should never have the blues

Let me help, I've got two for me, let me help

It would sure do me good to do you good

Let me help



When I go to sleep at night, you're always a part of my dream

Holding me tight and telling me everything I want to hear

Don't forget me baby, all you gotta do is call

You know how I feel about you, if I can do anything at all

Let me help



If your child needs a daddy, I can help

It would sure do me good to do you good,

Let me help



Written by Billy Swan

I Can't Help It

Today I passed you on the street

And my heart was at your feet

I can't help it if I'm still in love with you



Somebody else stood by your side

And he looked so satisfied

I can't help it if I'm still in love with you



A memory from the past came slowly stealing

As I braced your arm and walked so close to you (yeah)

Oh heaven only knows how much I miss you

I can't help it if I'm still in love with you

I can't help it if I'm still in love with you



Written by Hank Williams

I Can't Stop Loving You

I can't stop loving you

So I've made up my mind

To live in memory 

Of such an old lonesome time



I can't stop wanting you

It's useless to say

So I'll just live my life

In dreams of yesterday.



Those happy hours 

That we once knew

Though long ago, 

They still make me blue



They say that time 

Heals a broken heart

But time has stood still

Since we've been apart



Written by Don Gibson

I Don't Care If The Sun Don't Shine

Well, I don't care if the sun don't shine.

I get my lovin' in the evening time

When I'm with my baby.



Well, it ain't no fun with the sun around.

I get going when the sun goes down

And I'm with my baby.



Well, that's when we're gonna kiss and kiss and kiss and kiss,

And we're gonna kiss some more.

Who cares how many times we kiss,

'Cause at a time like this, who keeps score?



Well, I don't care if the sun don't shine

I get my loving in the evening time

When I meet my baby.



And it don't matter if it's sleet or snow,

The drive-in's cozy when the lights are low

And I'm with my baby.



Makes no difference if the rain comes down

I don't notice when she's around.

Oh boy, what a baby.



Well, that's when we're gonna kiss and kiss and kiss and kiss

and

We're gonna kiss some more.

Well, one kiss from my baby doll 

Makes me hot-

More more more more.



Well, I don't care if the sun don't shine

I get my loving in the evening time

When I'm with my baby.



Written by David

I Don't Wanna Be Tied

I want my share of love, it might as well be known

But I ain't thinking of one girl to love alone

That ain't the way it's gonna be, I'm on my own and I am free

And I've been satisfied, so I don't wanna be tied



Somebody's loving arms can sure be sweet I've found

But I want no-one's arms to ever hold me down

Once I get caught inside a net I'm gonna run I bet

I'm gonna run and hide, I don't wanna be tied



I've seen lovers who were matched, they thought that love could stay

Once they cared and got attached, it seems that love just slipped away

Don't want no claims on me, 

don't want no chains that bind 

As anyone could see 

I say what's on my mind

Well there ain't nothing I conceal, I'm gonna play the field

The field of love is wide , 



I don't wanna be tied 

The field of love is wide, 

I don't wanna be tied 

The field of love is wide,

I don't wanna be tied 

I said I don't, I don't wanna be, I don't wanna be tied



Written by Baum, Giant and Kaye

I Don't Want To

I don't want to, I don't want to

I don't want to let you know how much I want you

Don't come near me, I don't trust you

I don't trust the way you thrill me when I touch you



I was happy free and easy, I could go around 

And do the things that please me

I don't want to get tied down with a girl like you

I don't want to ... love you, but I do



I was happy free and easy, I could go around 

And do the things that please me

I don't want to get tied down with a girl like you

I don't want to ... love you, but I do

I don't want to love you, but I do

I Feel So Bad

Feel so bad

Like a ball game on a rainy day

Feel so bad

Like a ball game on a rainy day

Yes' I got my rain check

Shake my head and walk away



Oooo-people that's the way I feel

Oooo-people that's the way I feel

Sometimes I think I want

Then again I think I don't

Sometimes I want to stay here

Then again I want to leave here

Then again I want to stay

Yes, I got my train fare

Pack my grip and ride away



Oooo-people that's the way I feel

Oooo-people that's the way I feel

Sometimes I think I want

Then again I think I don't



I Feel So Bad

I Feel That I've Known You Forever

Your lips, your eyes, your soft sweet sights

I feel that I've known you forever

Your style, your touch, you're just too much

I feel that I've known you forever



I know that this never happened to me

Don't have to see anymore than I see

Your face so rare, beyond compare

I feel that I've known you forever

And ever and ever



Written by Pomus and Jeffrys

If Every Day Was Christmas

I hear the bells

Saying Christmas is near

They ring out to tell the world

That this is the season of cheer



I hear a choir

Singing sweetly somewhere

And a glow fills my heart

I'm at peace with the world

As the sound of their singing fills the air



Oh why can't every day be like Christmas

Why can't that feeling go on endlessly


For if everyday could be just like Christmas

What a wonderful world this would be



I hear a child

Telling Santa what to bring

And the smile upon his tiny face

Is worth more to me than anything



Written by Red West

If I Can Dream

There must be lights burning brighter somewhere

Got to be birds flying higher in a sky more blue

If I can dream of a better land

Where all my brothers walk hand in hand

Tell me why, oh why, oh why can't my dream come true



There must be peace and understanding sometime

Strong winds of promise that will blow away

All the doubt and fear

If I can dream of a warmer sun

Where hope keeps shining on everyone

Tell me why, oh why, oh why won't that sun appear



We're lost in a cloud

With too much rain

We're trapped in a world

That's troubled with pain

But as long as a man

Has the strength to dream

He can redeem his soul and fly



Deep in my heart there's a trembling question

Still I am sure that the answer gonna come somehow

Out there in the dark, there's a beckoning candle

And while I can think, while I can talk

While I can stand, while I can walk

While I can dream, please let my dream

Come true, right now

Let it come true right now

Oh yeah



Written by Brown

If I Get Home On Christmas Day

If I get home on Christmas day

I won't need soft words to say

I'll miss you and I can stay a while

You'll see it in my eyes and when I smile



If I get home before midnight

While you're still sleeping tight

I'll take you in my arms and there you'll stay

If I get home on Christmas day



Writing letters everyday

Never really seem to say

The way I feel deep in this heart of mine

Thought I'm half a world away

If we're patient and we pray

Know I'll get my chance with you this time



If I get home on Christmas day

I won't need soft words to say

I'll miss you and I can stay a while

You'll see it in my eyes and when I smile



If I get home before midnight

While you're still sleeping tight

I'll take you in my arms and there you'll stay

If I get home on Christmas day

I'll take you in my arms and there you'll stay

If I get home on Christmas day

If I Loved You

If I loved you

Words wouldn't come in an easy way

Round in circles I'd go

Only to tell you

But afraid and shy

I let my golden chances pass me by



Soon you'll leave me

Ought (?) you would go in a misty day

Never, never let you know

I love you eternally



Written by Rodgers and Hammerstein

If I'm A Fool

If I'm a fool for loving you then that's just what I want to be

They're saying I am just your clown and any fool could see

That you're just having fun and you're not in love with me

The things they're saying may be true, but there's something they can't see

If I'm a fool for loving you then that's just what I want to be



If I'm a dreamer, let me dream. If I'm your clown I'll steal the show

If things are not the way they seem, please don't ever let me know

If I am blind it's because I just don't want to see

If I'm a fool for loving you then that's just what I want to be



If I'm a dreamer, let me dream. If I'm your clown I'll steal the show

If things are not the way they seem, please don't ever let me know

If I am blind it's because I just don't want to see

If I'm a fool for loving you then that's just what I want to be

If I'm a fool for loving you then that's just what I want to be

If I Were You

The sandman comes to my house late each night

But it's way in the morning before he turns out my life

It's times like this my darling I can see

If I were you I'd know that I love me



The great snowman I've been called by all

But it looks like this time I'm gonna fall

It's times like this my darling I can see

Oooh If I were you I'd know that I love me



Wind and rain and storm closin' in on me

I've walked the streets alone with my self sympathy

Can you hear me saying hopefully

Oooh If I were you I'd know that I love me



Wind and rain and storm closin' in on me

I've walked the streets alone with my self sympathy

Can you hear me saying hopefully

If I were you I'd know that I love me

Oooh If I were you I'd know that I love me

If I were you I'd know that I love me

I Forgot To Remember To Forget

I forgot to remember to forget her,

I can't seem to get her off my mind.

I thought I'd never miss her,

But I found out somehow

I think about her almost all the time.

The day she went away

I made myself a promise

That I'd soon forget we ever met.

But something sure is wrong,

'Cause I'm so blue and lonely.

I forgot to remember to forget.

He left the splendor of heaven

Knowing His destiny

Was the lonely hill of Golgotha

There to lay down His life for me



And if that isn't love

Then the ocean is dry

There's no stars in the sky

And the little sparrows can't fly

Yeah if that isn't love

Then heaven's a myth

There's no feeling like this

If that isn't love



Even in death He remembered

The thief hanging by His side

Then he spoke of love and compassion

And He took him to paradise



And if that isn't love

Then the ocean is dry

There's no stars in the sky

And the little sparrows can't fly

Yeah if that isn't love

Then heaven's a myth

There's no feeling like this

If that isn't love It's got to be love

If The Lord Wasn't Walking By My Side

I don't know just what I’d do

If the Lord wasn't walking by my side

When I was drifting (when I was drifting on the sea of a despair)

and I was wandering (I was wandering if Jehovah's up there) 

When Jesus found me,(Jesus found me in my sinful life)

he heard me praying (he heard me praying on my knees at night)

Now I’m singing (Now I'm singing this happy song)

because I’m happy (because I'm happy as I go along)

And I don't know (I don't know) just what I’d do

If the Lord wasn't walking by my side

What would I do, (What would I do when a tear fills my eyes)

what would I do (What would I do when it's my time to die)

Well I’d be lonely, discouraged

Burdened on the way

If the Lord wasn't walking by my side every day



I’d be so friendless (I'd be friendless all alone and blue)

and I'd be helpless (I'd be helpless, wouldn't know what to do)

And I don't know (I don't know) just what I’d do

If the Lord wasn't walking by my side



(What would I do) What would I do when the tears fill my eyes

(What would I do) What would I do when it's my time to die

(I'd be lonely, discouraged, burdened on the way)

If the Lord wasn't walking by my side every day



I’d be so friendless, (I'd be friendless all alone and blue)

I'd be so helpless (I'd be helpless, wouldn't know what to do)

And I don't know (I don't know) just what I’d do

If the Lord wasn't walking by my side every day



If the Lord (wasn't walking) wasn't walking by my side

(wasn't walking by my side) 



Written by Henry Slaughter

If We Never Meet Again

Soon we'll come to the end of life's journey

And perhaps never meet anymore

Till we gather in heaven's bright city

Far away on that beautiful shore



If we never meet again this side of heaven

As we struggle through this world and its strife

There's another meeting place somewhere in heaven

By the side of the river of life



Where the charming roses bloom forever

And where separations come no more

If we never meet again this side of heaven

I will meet you on that beautiful shore

If You Don't Come Back

Well the car was gone and you were gone

And I almost lost my mind.

If you don't come back (If you don't come back)

Yeah! if you don't come back today (If you don't come back today)

You can call up the people at the crazy house

And take this crazy man away



(He threw himself off a gas stone wall) 

(He tore his clothes out the door) 

I ran out on the street in my stockinged feet

Tell the police I've been robbed

If you don't come back (If you don't come back)

Mmm if you don't come back today (If you don't come back today)

Well you can call up the people at the crazy house

And take this crazy man away



Mrs. Brown's been talking about me

To the people across the street

She said (said (I cooked that boy a pot full of stew,

But the poor thing just won't eat).) 



If you don't come back (If you don't come back)

Yeah! If you don't come back today (If you don't come back today)

If You Love Me

You came when I was happy in your sunshine

I grew to love you more each passing day

Before too long I’d filled my world around you

Yeah and I prayed you loved enough of me to stay



If you love me let me know

If you don't let me go

I can't take another minute of the day without you near

If you love me let it be

If you don't set me free

Take the chains away that keep me loving you



The arms that open wide to hold me closer

The hands that run their fingers through my hair

The smile that says hello it's good to see you

Any time I turn around and find you there



It's this and so much more that makes me love you

What else can I do to make you see 

You know you'll have whatever's mine to give you

Yeah but a love affair for one it can never be



If you love me let me know

If you don't let me go

I can't take another minute of the day without you near

If you love me let it be

If you don't set me free

Take the chains away that keep me loving you



Take the chains away that keep me loving you

If You Talk In Your Sleep

I know you're a lonely woman and I love you

But someone else is waiting and he owns you

If he should ever wake up, make sure that your story is straight love

If you talk in your sleep don't mention my name

And if you walk in your sleep forget where you came



Walking every night here in the shadows

So afraid that sometime he may follow

There's always the chance he'll find us

I don't need to remind you

If you talk in your sleep don't mention my name

If you walk in your sleep forget where you came



Love is so much sweeter when it's borrowed

I'll feel a little easier tomorrow

Don't give our secret away, be careful what you say

If you talk in your sleep don't mention my name

If you walk in your sleep forget where you came



Forget where you came, now

Forget where you came

Don't mention my name

Don't mention my name

Forget where you came

If You Think I Don't Need You

If you think I don't need you

Then take a look in my eyes

Maybe these ain't raindrops

Falling out of the sky

Since you been gone

I've been so alone

If you think I don't need you

Then baby you're wrong



If you think I don't love you

What could I do to prove to you baby

My love is true

I sing the same old song

Since you've been gone

If you think I don't love you

Then baby you're wrong



My life ain't been the same since you left me

I ain't had a wink of sleep in seven days

I don't know what to do I'm going crazy

I just walk the floor at night and call your name



If you think I don't do right

I'll change my ways

I'll do like you want me to, I'll be your slave

Since you been gone

I've been so alone

If you think I don't need you

Well baby you're wrong

I Got Lucky

Never found a four leaf clover to bring good luck to me

No rabbit's foot no lucky star no magic wishing tree

But I got lucky, yes I got lucky 

When I found you, oh yeah!



Got no rainbow around my shoulder, no horseshoe on my door

But I got you to hold me tight and who could ask for more

Oh I got lucky, yes I got lucky 

When I found you, 



I always walk around with all my fingers crossed

I'm afraid the love I found just might get lost

So won't you tell me that you love me, hurry up and name the day

And then I'll know that my good luck is really here to stay

Oh I got lucky, yes I got lucky 

When I found you



I always walk around with all my fingers crossed

I'm afraid the love I found just might get lost

So won't you tell me that you love me, hurry up and name the day

And I'm never gonna leave once I arrive

The clock is strikin' thirteen I think I lost my mind

You know it's gettin' aggravatin'

How long can I keep waitin'

Tell me if you love me yes or no,

I gotta know, gotta know, gotta know



Oh, how much I need you

Have pity on this heart of mine

Well, if you need and want me too,

I'll be your one and only till the end of time



Saw the fortune teller, had my fortune read

She sent me to the doctor, who sent me straight to bed

He said I'm lonesome and I'm lovesick

I've got my mind on lipstick

Will you kiss away my cares and woe?

I gotta know, gotta know, gotta know



Written by Williams and Evans

I, John

Oh well, I, John, he saw might numbers

A way up in the middle of the air

I, John he saw might numbers

Way in the middle of the air

Got to mighty move, John, you saw mighty numbers

Way up in the middle of the air



Well there were three gates in the east

And there were three gates in the west

Three gates in the north

Three gates in the south

And that makes twelve gates to the city all square wide



John, you saw might numbers way up in the middle of the air

Well John declared that he saw a man

He held twelve bright stars in his right hand

Well his eyes flashed fire like the burning sun

Old John got scared and he wanted to run

Well he wanted to run but his feet wouldn't go

Cause he felt the gospel cutting like a two-edged sword

And he heard a voice that said John, you take a look

And read what you see and then you write it in a book



And he saw twelve angels in the east

And there were twelve angels in the west

Twelve angels in the north,

Twelve angels in the south

That's a total of forty-eight angels to the city, four squared wide



Written by William Gaither

I Just Can't Help Believin'

I just can't help believin'

When she smiles up soft and gentle

With a trace of misty morning

And the promise of tomorrow in her eyes



I just can't help believin'

When she's lying close beside me

And my heart beats with the rhythm of her sighs

This time the girl is gonna stay

This time the girl is gonna stay

For more than just a day



Oh, I just can't help believin'

When she slips her hand in my hand

And it feels so small and helpless

As my fingers fold around it like a glove



I just can't help believin'

When she's whispering her magic

And her tears are shining honey sweet with love

This time the girl is gonna stay

This time the girl is gonna stay

For more than just a day

For more than just a day



Written by B.J. Thomas

I Just Can't Make It By Myself

I need Jesus to guide me every day

As I'm travellin' along this rough and narrow way

Though afflictions fill my soul

I'm determined to make the goal

I've gotta have Jesus 'cause I just can't make it by myself



Every day I pray (pray) pray (pray)

Pray (pray) pray (pray)

I pray (pray) pray (pray

Pray pray pray

Pray and ask the Lord Jesus

Don't leave me by myself



Every mornin' through the years I pray

You know I've got to have Jesus

I just can't it by myself

By myself

I'll Be Back

All right



Well I'll be back, Yeah! I'll be back

Like a homesick train on a one-way track

I got to travel and hit the gravel

But I'll be back, Yeah! I'll be back



Yeah! I'll return, I shall return

Don't cool those lips, we're gonna see 'em burn

'Cause I'll be missin' your kinda kissin'

But I'll be back, Yeah, I'll be back



Yeah! There ain't nobody tell me stay or go, oh no

And no-one tells the four winds where to blow-ow-ow

I'll be back, I'm comin' back

Don't throw away that welcome mat

The door I'm hopin' will still be open a teeny weenie crack

To your shack

So keep that love light burnin', I'll be back



Yeah! There ain't nobody tell me stay or go, oh no

And no-one tells the four winds where to blow-ow-ow

I'll Be Home For Christmas

I'll be home for Christmas,

You can plan on me.

Please have snow and mistletoe

And presents for the tree.



Christmas Eve will find me

Where the love light leads.

I'll be home for Christmas, oh yes

If only in my dreams.



Written by Kent and Gannon

I'll Be Home On Christmas Day

On the hills of Georgia

Across the plains of Tennessee

I've seen and I've done most everything

That a man can do or see

But if I could only borrow one dream from your sleep

I'd be on that train tomorrow

I'll be home on Christmas day



And so many times before

She left that candle burning

Oh, too many tears fell

My soul fills with yearning

If I had sense at all

I'd just be on my way

Be on that train tomorrow

Be home on Christmas day



Everytime I think about her

All the love I left behind

Memories still linger in my troubled mind

I could set aside my pride

And I'd be on my way

I'd catch that train tomorrow

And be home on Christmas day



If I had any sense at all

I'd just be on my way

I'd catch that train tomorrow

I'd be home on Christmas day

I said I'd catch that train tomorrow

I'd be home on Christmas day

To answer your unspoken prayer, oh....

When the little things you're doin', ooh, don't turn out right

There whenever you need to know that there is someone who cares, oh yeah!

So if your new love isn't your true love

There whenever you need to know that there is someone who cares, oh yeah!

Don't you worry darlin', I'll be there

I'll Never Fall In Love Again

I've been in love so many times

I thought I knew the score

Now you've treated me so wrong

I can't take any more



And it looks like I’m never gonna fall in love again

Fall in love, I’m never gonna fall in love

I mean it, I mean it, fall in love again



I gave my heart so easily, cast aside my pride


When I saw you in his arms baby

I broke up and cried



And it looks like I’m never gonna fall in love again

That's what I'm sayin' Fall in love, No, I’m never gonna fall in love

Please don't make me fall in love again



That's why I, no, I’m never gonna fall in love

Please don't make me, don't make me, fall in love again

I'll Never Know

How many stars are in the sky, I'll never know

What fire lights a firefly, I'll never know



What happens to this heart of mine each time you hold my hand

Sometimes the things we love the most

We never understand

I never thought these eyes would see an angel's glow

What miracle brought you to me, I'll never know



What happens to this heart of mine each time you hold my hand

I'll never let you go, little darlin'.

I'm so sorry 'cause I made you cry.

I'll never let you go, 'cause I love you.

So please don't ever say good-bye.



The stars would tumble down beside me,

The moon would hang its head and cry.

My arms would never hold another baby doll

If we should ever say good-bye.



Well, I'll never let you go, 

Because I love you, pretty baby.

I'm so sorry 'cause I made you cry.

I made you cry.

Yeah, I'll never let you go,

'Cause I love you, little baby.

So please don't ever say good-bye.

I'd never stand in your way

If you feel we must part, don't let pity rule your heart

But what is to be will be and I'll obey

I'll be blue when you go but I'll never let it show.

To your arms someday I'll return to stay

Till then I will remember too

Every bright start we made wishes upon

Love me always, promise always

Oooh, you'll remember too

Is all they ever want to hold

But there's a treasure, I think more of

Measure for measure .. I'll take love

Is all they need for happiness

But there's a pleasure, I think more of

Measure for measure .. I'll take love

Ounce for ounce love is all that really counts

So let them have their wealth and fame

Eat caviar and drink champagne

You're all the treasure I'm dreaming of

Measure for measure .. I'll take love

I'll Take You Home Again Kathleen

I'll take you home again Kathleen

Across the ocean wild and wide

To where your heart has ever been

Since first you were my bonny bride

The roses all have left your cheek

I watch them fade away and die

Your voice is soft when ere you speak

And tears bedim your lovely eyes

Oh, I will take you home Kathleen

To where your heart shall feel no pain

And when the fields are soft and green

I will take you to your home Kathleen

I Love Only One Girl

Oh, I love only one girl, the one I got my arms around

I love only one girl, one in every town



In Paris there is Mimi, and when the moon is bright

I love to take her walking, along the Seine each night

I kiss her on the left, then I kiss her on the right



Oh, I love only one girl, the one I got my arms around

I love only one girl, one in every town



I'm proud of my Brunhilda, in Frankfurt on the Rhine

Oh she's a lot of woman and all of her is mine

Oh she can lift a Steinway as easy as a stein



Oh, I love only one girl, the one I got my arms around

I love only one girl, one in every town



In Naples there's Maria how she can cook and flirt

You can't beat her lasagna, I eat until I hurt

And then she tops it off with "amore" for dessert



Oh, I love only one girl, the one I got my arms around

I love only one girl, one in every town

honey everytime, everytime I'm walking by your side

and I love you, yes I love you because the future is a little bit brighter

No matter what may be the style or season,

I know your heart will always be true.

I love you for a hundred thousand reasons,

But most of all I love you 'cause you're you

I'm Beginning To Forget You

I'm beginning to forget you

That old heartache is gone

I'm beginning to sleep at night

No more crying 'till dawn

I can hear your name mentioned

And it brings no misery

I'm beginnin to forget you

Like you forgot me



I'm beginning to smile again

After crying for so long

I can hear the tune we loved so well

And it's just another song

I'm so happy that it's over

I'm so thankful to be free

I'm beginnin to forget you

Like you forgot me

I'm Coming Home

Well it's so very hard to have

To leave the one you love

And you get more lonely

With each passing day

It's so lonely just sitting

And dreaming of

That girl thousand miles away



Yes, it's still lonely having

Just her picture here with me

And I know I just can't stand it anymore

I'm gonna leave right now 

and go back where I ought to be

Goin' home to the girl that I adore



Well it's so very hard to have

To leave the one you love

And you get more lonely

With each passing day

It's so lonely just sitting

And dreaming of

That girl thousand miles away



Well, every time I hear 

her sweet voice on the telephone

Then I know I just can't stand it another day

I'm gonna call right back

And tell her that I'm coming home and stay

Call her back and say I’m comin' home and stay

Call her back and say I’m comin' home and stay

All the words that I let her know

Still could not say

How much I need you so in every way

I hope you will guide me

As only you can do

Hold my hands down beside me

I'm counting on you

I'm counting on you dear

From the dawn of each day

To always come through dear

In your kind lovin' way

If you knew just how deeply

I feel things you do

Then you know how completely

I'm counting on you

I'm counting on you dear

Around the dawn of each day

To always come true, dear

In your kind lovin' way

If you knew just how deeply

I feel things you do

Then you know how completely

I'm counting on you

I Met Her Today

I told you that some day

If you kept on being untrue

Somebody else would come along

And release me from you



You'll be glad to know now

Your fickle world

Can have its own way

For it finally happened

I've met her today



I used to think I just couldn't live

A day without you

In spite of the thousand doubts and tears

That you put me through

All at once I don't care as much for you

I'm sorry to say

For now there's another

I met her today



How I treasured each smile, each kiss

You gave to me now and then

Well, you needn't be kind to me now

Oh no, not ever again



Just when the last bit of pride in me was gone

Someone heard me pray

And sent me my angel

I met her today

I met her today

I'm Falling In Love Tonight

I'm falling in love, tonight

Somehow, I know

The beautiful world tonight

Is sharing, it's glow



When love let me down before

I said I was through

But I'm falling in love tonight

With you



'till you walked by

I laughed and played the game

One last kiss, then goodbye

And out went the flame



But somehow, you've changed me dear

This time, it's true

I'm falling in love tonight

With you

I'm gonna love you more and more in every way

And if you say good-bye

If you ever even try

So they'll know exactly what I’m gonna do

And if you say good-bye

Say if you ever even try

The love we shared, the fun and the laughter

How I wish you could feel what my heart says tonight dear

Dreams that I had they lay broken in sorrow

The plans I made the hopes for tomorrow

If I could I would tell you I'm lonesome tonight dear

The way you looked the sound of your laughing

How I long for the touch of your hand holding mine dear

You'd have taken the time to show me

I wouldn't be lonely



Where will I go, who will I have to lie beside me

Is it something that's inside me

I'm so lonely



Tried so hard each time, each time I just can't make it

Feelin' fast vibrations and I just can't take it

Living from day to day, chasing the dream

Well, you're right, I'm left, she's gone.

You're right, and I'm left all alone.

Well, you tried to tell me so,

But how was I to know 

That she was not the one for me?



You told me all along,

You're right, our love was so wrong.

But now I changed my mind,

Because she broke the ties that bind, 

And I know that she never cared for me.



Well, I thought I knew just what she'd do,

I guess I'm not so smart.

Oh, you tried to tell me along she'd only break my heart.

I'm left, you're right, she's gone.

You're right, and I'm left all alone.



Well, she's gone I know not where,

But now I just don't care.

For now I'm falling for you.



If you'll forgive me now,

I'll make it up somehow.

So happy we will be,

In a home just for three,

And I'll soon forget her,

Now I know.



Well, I thought I knew just what she'd do,

I guess I'm not so smart.

You tried to tell me all along,

I'm Not The Marrying Kind

Show me a girl with a dimple on her cheek

Butter melts in her mouth

When she opens it to speak

Show me a girl who is acting so refined

And I'll show you a girl with one thing on her mind



So I say "You know what?" She says "What?"

I say "What? Oh I'm not the marrying kind

For you've got what it takes

And it takes what you've got

But I'm not the marrying kind

Don't kiss me, don't claw me

Don't pet me, don't paw me

And I won't leave my freedom behind"



So I say "You know what?" She says "What?"

I say "What? Oh I'm not the marrying kind.

You know what?" She says "What?"

Don't kiss me, don't claw me

Don't pet me, don't paw me

And I won't leave my freedom behind"

I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry

Hear that lonesome winter bird

He sounds too blue to fly

The midnight train is whining low

I'm so lonesome I could cry



Did you ever see a robin weep

When leaves began to die

That means he's lost the will to live

I'm so lonesome I could cry



The silence of a falling star

Lights up a purple sky

And as I wonder where you are

I'm so lonesome I could cry

I'm so lonesome I could cry

I'm With A Crowd But Oh So Alone

I'm with a crowd but oh so alone

I still have the picture you sent me

And you signed it with love you recall

And the one of me that you wanted

Is now hanging face to the wall

At night I'm never alone

I'm afraid that I'll weaken and phone

And I'm afraid that you will be gone

I'm with a crowd but oh so alone

My love I offer you now

My heart and all it can give

And as the years roll along

Your joy and tears I’ll gladly share

And when things go wrong dear

Just hold out your hand and I’ll be there

With every beat of my heart

With every breath that I take

Now and forever, sweetheart, I’m yours

The last time I saw you

And I smile and tell them

There's no way to explain it

The way that I miss you

Indescribably blue



I talk to your picture

My fav'rite one of you

I wish that you were here with me

Having no way to tell you

The pain that I’ve been through

Oh, my love, you have left me

Indescribably blue

I need somebody to lean on

I need somebody to tell my troubles to

No use denying, I'm close to cryin'

But what good, tell me what good would my crying do



I need somebody to help me

Help me forget all those worries on my mind

And when I'm lonely, if someone would only

Want to be sweet and kind



I need somebody, won't that somebody

Please, please listen to my plea

Need that somebody, won't that somebody

Come running to me



I need somebody to lean on

If she came I would hold her 'cause I need that shoulder

To lean on, yes I really do

I need somebody, and maybe that somebody is you

I try not to worry

Come back in a hurry

Inherit The Wind

Baby don't fall in love with me

I'll only bring you grief

Baby, don't set your heart on me

I'll only have to leave



'Cause the north wind flows through my veins

Like my dad there's a dream in my brain

In the morning I'll have to leave again

That's how it is when you inherit the wind

Inherit the wind



Daddy, he was a traveling man

I hardly knew his face

Momma, she cried for him at night

He never stayed in one place



'Cause the north wind flows through my veins

Like my dad there's a dream in my brain

In the morning I'll have to leave again

That's how it is when you inherit the wind

Inherit the wind



Oh I can't give you the love you need

I just won't be here that long

But if you still want me here tonight

I'll love you till the break of dawn



'Cause the north wind flows through my veins

Like my dad there's a dream in my brain

In the morning I'll have to leave again

That's how it is when you inherit the wind

Inherit the wind

Inherit the wind, inherit the wind



Written by Eddie Rabbitt

In My Father's House

In my father's house are many mansions

If it were not true he would have told me so

He has gone away to live in that bright city

He's preparing me a mansion there I know



Jesus died upon the cross to bear my sorrow

Freely died that souls like you might have new life

But I know that soon there'll come a bright tomorrow

When the world will all be free from sin and strife



(Do not shun the saviors love, from up in glory)

(Or you won't be there to sing the gospel story)

In my father's house are many mansions

If you're true then to this land you'll surely go



Arranged by Elvis Presley

In My Way

I may not be here tomorrow

But I'm close beside you today

So lie to me a little, say you love me a lot

And I'll be true to you in my way



Love never goes on forever

At least that's what wise men all say

So smile when you kiss me, tomorrow you may cry

But I'll be true to you in my way

Yes I'll be true to you in my way



Written by Weisman and Wise

In The Garden

I come to the garden alone

While the dew is still on the roses

And the voice I hear falling on my ear

The song of God discloses



And He walks with me

And He talks with me

And He tells me I am his own

And the joy we share as we tarry there

None other has ever known



He speaks and the sound of His voice

Is so sweet the birds hush their singing

And the melody that He gave to me

Within my heart is ringing



And He walks with me

And He talks with me

And He tells me I am his own

And the joy we share as we tarry there

None other has ever known



Written by Miles

In The Ghetto

As the snow flies

On a cold and gray Chicago mornin'

A poor little baby child is born

In the ghetto

And his mama cries

'cause if there's one thing that she don't need

it's another hungry mouth to feed

In the ghetto



People, don't you understand

the child needs a helping hand

or he'll grow to be an angry young man some day

Take a look at you and me,

are we too blind to see,

do we simply turn our heads

and look the other way



Well the world turns

and a hungry little boy with a runny nose

plays in the street as the cold wind blows

In the ghetto



And his hunger burns

so he starts to roam the streets at night

and he learns how to steal

and he learns how to fight

In the ghetto



Then one night in desperation

a young man breaks away

He buys a gun, steals a car,

tries to run, but he don't get far

And his mama cries



As a crowd gathers 'round an angry young man

face down on the street with a gun in his hand

In the ghetto



As her young man dies,

on a cold and gray Chicago mornin',

another little baby child is born

In the ghetto



Written by Scott Davis

In Your Arms

Oh, the way I feel tonight

You better wrap me up good and tight

In your arms

In your arms



Just like a bee in a honeycomb

I'm gonna make myself right at home

In your arms

In your arms



Well, it don't take much to keep me satisfied

Just a little bit of lovin' that's bonafide

In your arms keep me tangled up all the time

Like a kitten with a ball of twine



Yeah baby, that's where I want to stay

For the rest of my natural days

In your arms

In your arms



Written by Schroeder and Gold

I Really Don't Want To Know

Oh how many arms have held you

And hated to let you go

How many, oh how many, I wonder

But I really don't want, I don't wanna know



Oh how many lips have kissed you

And set, set your soul aglow, yes they did

How many, oh how many, I wonder, yes I do

But I really don't want to know



So always make, make me wonder

And always make, make me guess

And even, you know even if I ask you

Oh darling oh don't you, don't confess



Just let it, let it remain your secret

Oh for darling, darling I love you so

No wonder, yeah no wonder, I wonder

Mmm, 'cause I really don't want, I don't wanna know

I Shall Be Released

I see my light I see my light come shining

From the west down to the east

Any day now, any day now I shall be released

Any day now, any day now I shall be released



Written by Bob Dylan

I Shall Not Be Moved

Well Lord I shall not be, I shall not be moved

I shall not be, I shall not be moved

Just like a tree that's growin' in the meadow (down by the water)

I shall not be moved



I'm on my way to glory land and I shall not be moved

On my way to glory land I will not be moved

I'm like a tree that's planted by the water

I shall not be moved



I shall not be, I shall not be moved

I shall not be, I shall not be moved

Just like a tree that's planted by the water

I shall not be moved



I shall not be, I shall not be moved

I shall not be, I shall not be moved

Just like a tree that's planted by the water

I shall not be moved



Well I'm on my way to glory land and I shall not be moved

On my way to glory land I shall not be moved

I'm like a tree that's planted by the water

I shall not be moved



Oh well

I shall not be, I shall not be moved

I shall not be, I shall not be moved

Just like a tree that's planted by the water

I shall not be moved



Written by Homer Morris

Is It So Strange

Oh, if you tell a lie

You know that I'll forgive you

Though you say our love is just a game

And when you hear my name

You'll say I'm from a strange world

But is it so strange to be in love with you



Is it so strange

That I love you more than all the world

Is it so strange

I have no eyes for any other girl



Oh won't you take me back

And say that you still love me

To waste a love like ours would be a sin

Let us kiss again

Let me hold you near

And take me from this strange world

That I'm living in



Written by Faron Young

Island Of Love

Kauai, island of love

Lovely princess of the islands

Kauai, island of love

Listen, can't you hear her calling



Aloha welcome my love

Her palmtrees gently do the hula

While her slaves, the waves

Rush in to kiss her shores



Heaven is another name for

Kauai, island of love



Written by Tepper and Bennett

I Slipped, I Stumbled, I Fell

I look at you and wham, I'm head over heels

I guess that love is a banana peel

I feel so bad and yet I'm feeling so well

I slipped, I stumbled, I fell



One crazy kiss and bam, I head for the skies

I guess that love is like a cake of ice

You skate along but then you can never tell

I slipped, I stumbled, I fell



I never thought I'd get tricked 

By you sweet talking lies

You've got a bag of tricks

And when you get busy

I got dazzled and dizzy

I fell like a ton of bricks



My knees are weak, my head is spinning around

I guess that love has turned me upside down

Thought I'd get hurt, but gee, it's turning out well

I slipped, I stumbled, I fell



Written by Wise and Weisman

It Ain't No Big Thing, But It's Growing

Your losing interest in me and it's showin'

It ain't no big thing but it's growin'

The pain of heartbreak I've just started knowin'

Well, it ain't no big thing but it's growin'



Every day the hurt grows bigger than before

But I'll pretend I don't know this

But If I can hold you one day more

You've got the look of someone who's goin'

You're gonna leave me and it's showin'

A little tear I can feel start to flow

It ain't no big thing but it's growin'



Well every day the hurt grows bigger than before 

But I'll pretend I don't know this

Well, if I can hold you one day more

You've got the look of someone who's goin'

Well, you're gonna leave me and it's showin'

A little tear I can feel start to flow

Well it ain't no big thing but it's growing

No, it ain't no big thing but it's growing

It Feels So Right

Step in these arms, where you belong

It feels so right, so right

How can it be wrong?



There's something in the way you kiss

That makes me want to hold you tight

I know that nothing can't be wrong

that feels so right.



Each time we touch, you thrill me so

It means so much, so much

I can't let you go



This isn't only for tonight

We're gonna love our whole life long

'Cause baby, if it feels so right

How can it be wrong?



Written by Wise and Weisman

I Think I'm Gonna Like It Here

No-one's in a hurry

No-one seems to worry

Why they're all so happy is very clear

Every day siesta, every night fiesta

I think I'm gonna like it here



All this lovely scenery

There's more to it than greenery

I know a chance for romance is always near

Mission bells are ringing, everybody's singing

I think I'm gonna like it hear



The sound of laughter from every doorway

Sweet music floating across the square

It seems to say things are going better

Your troubles like bubbles will soon disappear in the air



Down to my last peso, but I'm not afraid to say so

I feel just like a brave, Spanish cavalier

I don't care where we go, so lead on" mi amigo"

I think I'm gonna like it here



Melodias.....lapieras



Your troubles like bubbles will soon disappear in the air



Down to my last peso, but I'm not afraid to say so

I feel just like a brave, Spanish cavalier

I don't care where we go, so lead on" mi amigo"

I think I'm gonna like it here



Written by Robertson and Blair

It Hurts me

It hurts me to see him treat you the way he does

It hurts me to see sit and cry

When I know I could be so true

If I had someone like you

It hurts me to see those tears in your eyes



The whole town is talking, they're callin' you a fool

For listening to his same old lies

And when I know I could be so true

If I had someone like you

It hurts me to see the way he makes you cry



You love him too much, you're too blind to see

He's only playing a game

But he's never loved you

He never will

And darling, don't you know he will never change



Oh, I know he never will set you free

Because he's just that kind of guy

But if you ever tell him you're through

I'll be waiting for you

Waiting to hold you so tight

Waiting to kiss you goodnight

Yes, darling, if I had someone like you



Written by Byers and Daniel

It Is No Secret

The chimes of time ring out the news,

Another day is through.

Someone slipped and fell.

Was that someone you?



You may have longed for added strength,

Your courage to renew.

Do not be disheartened,

For I have news for you.



It is no secret what God can do.

What He's done for others, He'll do for you.

With arms wide open, He'll pardon you.

It is no secret what God can do. 



There is no night for in His light

You never walk alone.

Always feel at home,

Wherever you may go.



There is no power can conquer you

While God is on your side.

Take Him at His promise,

Don't run away and hide.



It is no secret what God can do.

What He's done for others, He'll do for you.

With arms wide open, He'll pardon you.

It is no secret what God can do.



Written by Stuart Hamblin

It Keeps Right on A-Hurtin

I cry myself to sleep each night

Wishing I could hold you tight

Life seems so empty since you went away

And the pillow where you lay your head

Now holds my empty dreams instead

And it keeps right on a-hurtin'

Since you're gone



It keeps right on a'hurtin every minute of the day

Every hour you're away I feel so lonely


And I can't help it, I don't think I can go on

And it keeps right on a-hurtin' since you're gone



They say a man ain't supposed to cry

But when I see you passing by

My heart breaks down and cries a million tears

The pillow where you lay your head

Now holds my empty dreams instead

And it keeps right on a-hurtin' since you're gone



It keeps right on a'hurtin every minute of the day

Every hour you're away I feel so lonely

And I can't help it, I don't think I can go on

And it keeps right on a-hurtin' since you're gone

Yes, it keeps right on a-hurtin' since you're gone

It's A Matter Of Time

It's a matter of time before I go back there

A matter of time before I go home



I have been way from her now for a long time

And I've lived a life I thought that it should be

It's a long, long way from now to maybe sometime

And the waiting round is really killing me



It's a matter of time before I go back there

A matter of time oh Lord, before I go home

It's a long way I know and the goin' ain't easy

She'll see me again it's a matter of time



I think I'll take a train right early in the morning

Just to see how far I get along the way

But the trains don't run too often only sometimes

So I guess I'd better wait another day



It's a matter of time before I go back there

A matter of time before I go home

It's a long way I know and the goin' ain't easy

She'll see me again, it's just a matter of time

She'll see me I know it's a matter of time



Written by Clive Westlake

It's A Sin

It's a sin, my darling

How I love you

Because I know

Our love could never be



It's a sin

To keep this memory of you

When silence proves

That you've forgotten me



The dreams I built for us

Has tumbled

Each promise broken

Like my heart



It's a sin, my darling

How I love you

So much in love

And yet so far apart



I'm sure you're happy with another

Who shares the love I cannot win

Why pretend that I can live without you

When deep inside I know that it's a sin

It's Diff'rent Now

Look at you and tell myself

How wonderful you are

You're so different now

To me you're much more wonderful, more wonderful by far

Yes, you're different now

There's more to love than holding hands and stealing kisses

No-one else around

There's the good times and the bad

There's the ups and downs we've had

But it's different now I'm so glad I still have you



There's always something new to see

I look at you, you look at me

And we're so different now

Love gets better every day 'n in some peculiar way

It's always different now

If we ever say goodbye, you'd be lost

And so would I, what's the difference now between us

Love just for a day, and a love that's here to stay

That's the difference now, the difference now

It's Easy For You

You may not mind that it's over

But I've a different point of view

Even though I am shattered

It's easy for you



You don't have to face the music

You don't have to face the crowd

Just go back where you came from

You ain't even proud



I had a wife and I had children

I threw them all away

And now you tell me, you dare to tell me

I should go back to them

What do you think I should say



I found it hard to leave them

Saddest thing I ever had to do

My problems haven't started

And it's easy for you



I had a wife and I had children

I threw them all away

And now you tell me, you dare to tell me

I should go back to them

What do you think, what on earth do you think I should say



If you ever tire of the good life

Call me in a year or two

I've got no choice, I'll forgive you

'Cause it's easy for you



You only have to call me, it's easy for you

You only have to call me, it's easy for you



Written by Andrew Lloyd Webber and T. Wright

It's Impossible

It's impossible to tell the sun to leave the sky,

It's just impossible.

It's impossible to ask a baby not to cry,

It's just impossible.

Can I hold you closer to me

And not feel you going through me,

But the second that I never think of you?

Oh, how impossible.



Can the ocean keep from rushing to the shore?

It's just impossible.

If I had you could I ever ask for more?

It's just impossible.

And tomorrow, should you ask me for the world

Somehow I'd get it, I would sell my very soul

And not regret it for to live without your love

Is just impossible



Can the ocean keep from rushing to the shore?

It's just impossible.

If I had you could I ever ask for more?

It's just impossible.

And tomorrow, should you ask me for the world

Somehow I'd get it, I would sell my very soul

And not regret it for to live without your love

Is just impossible

Oh impossible,

Impossible.

It's Midnight

Maybe it's too late. Sometimes I even hate myself for loving you

Trying to be strong then nighttime comes along and I start loving you

Wanting you. Where is all my selfcontrol I'm burning way down in my soul

And needing you, and wishing I could be the man, I try to

Hating me for wanting you to be with you knowing you don't love me like you used to

But it's midnight, Ohh and I miss you



It's getting late and I know that's when I am weak

Funny how things have a way of looking so much brighter in the day light

I ought to go to bed to try and straighten out my head and just forget you

Oh but it's midnight yes and I miss you 



It's getting late and I know that's when I am weak

It's Now Or Never

It's now or never, 

come hold me tight

Kiss me my darling, 

be mine tonight

Tomorrow will be too late, 

it's now or never

My love won't wait.



When I first saw you 

with your smile so tender

My heart was captured, 

my soul surrendered

I'd spend a lifetime 

waiting for the right time

Now that your near 

the time is here at last.



It's now or never, 

come hold me tight

Kiss me my darling, 

be mine tonight

Tomorrow will be too late, 

it's now or never

My love won't wait.



Just like a willow, 

we would cry an ocean

If we lost true love 

and sweet devotion

Your lips excite me, 

let your arms invite me

For who knows when 

we'll meet again this way



It's now or never, 

come hold me tight

Kiss me my darling, 

be mine tonight

Tomorrow will be too late, 

it's now or never

My love won't wait.

It's Only Love

I see the the sunlight in her hair

I feel the warm smile that she wears

She has no recipe for love

But I just can't get enough



From the distance of my mind

Clock that's ringing says it's time

Wake up to my destiny

It's time to face reality 



It's only love that I feel inside

But I'll get by somehow

It's only love, there must be something else for me girl



I tell myself that it's not real

There's nothing left for me to feel

I'll just be going on my way

Tomorrow brings another day



Only love that I feel inside

But I've got to be strong

My mind's made up, it's only love



But I know I'll get by, take my heart and my pride 

And just throw it aside

It's only love



It's only love, it's only love, it's only love

It's only love

It's only love



Written by James and Tyrell

It's Over

If time were not a moving thing

And I could make it stay

This hour of love we share

Would always be

There'd be no coming day 

To shine a morning light

And make us realize our night is over



When you walk away from me

There is no place to put my hand

Except to shade my eyes against the sun

That rises over the land

I watch you walk away

Somehow I have to let you go

Cause it's over



If you knew just how I really feel

You might return and yet

There are so many times

That people have to love and then forget

Oh there might have been a way somehow

I have to force myself to say

It's over



So I turn my back,

Turn my collar to the wind

Move along in silence

Trying not to think at all

I set my feet before me

Walk the silent street before me

Now it's over



If time were not a moving thing

And I could make you stay

This hour of love we share

Would always be

There'd be no coming day 

To shine a morning light

And make us realize our night is over



It's over

It's Still Here

The day you said we'd never part

You turned around and broke my heart

You had the nerve to tell me I would soon forget

Now you've been gone away one year

And I have not forgotten dear

The love I had for you so long

Is still here 

Wow-oh



It's here, still here

Because my heart cannot believe

We're really through

And though you said we'd never part

You turned around and broke my heart

It's Your Baby, You Rock It

You offered me a penny for my thoughts

And I told you then that woman won't stay caught

But you turned and loved her anyway

She broke your heart and all I’ve got to say



It's your baby, you rock it

It's your heartache, you bought it

You made the bed your sleeping in

And I’m tired of hearing about it friend

It's your baby you, rock it



Well you cried upon my shoulder like a baby

I'm sorry 'bout your troubles and your lady

But she done you like she done me

And I’ve used up all my sympathy

It's your baby you, rock it



It's your baby, you rock it

It's your heartache, you bought it

You made the bed your sleeping in

And I’m tired of hearing about it friend

It's your baby you, rock it

It Won't Be Long

The shooting stars are coming out of your eyes

They point the way, the way to paradise

I got a funny feeling, I can't be wrong

It won't be long until the sparks will fly

It won't be long



I hear a buzz, buzz around in my brain

But what it does, is bound to drive me insane

At a time like this I must be strong

It won't be long till the sky falls down

It won't be long



Love has taught me plenty, I'm still learning more

Anything worth having is worth the waiting for

Here I go, I'm on a one way trip

Look out below because I'm about to flip

I tell you when these lips get to that kiss



It won't be long until we're out of this world

It won't be long



Love has taught me plenty, I'm still learning more

Anything worth having is worth the waiting for

Here I go, I'm on a one way trip

Look out below because I'm about to flip

It Won't Seem Like Christmas

Oh, it won't seem like Christmas, oh, without you

Far too many miles are between

But if I get the one thing I'm waiting for

Well then I'll se you tonight in my dreams



Seems a long time since we've been together

It was just about to this time of the year

Looks like it's gonna be snowy weather

How I wish that you could be here



But it won't seem like Christmas, oh, without you

Far too many miles are between

But if I get the one thing that I'm wishing for

Then I'll see you tonight in my dreams



In the distance I hear sleigh bells ringing

The holly is so pretty this year

And the carol that somebody's singing

Reminds me of our Christmas last year

I've Got A Thing About You Baby

I've got something to tell you

That I think you ought to know

That my eyes are on you baby 

Since a long time ago

And now I fin'ly got the nerve

And I'm gonna make my move

Now don't you try to turn me off

Cause it's gonna be hard to do



I've got a thing about you baby

Ain't nothing I can do

I've got a thing about you baby

A thing about lovin' you



Ain't it just like a woman

When she knows she's got a man

She'll wring you out and turn you 'bout

In the palm of her hand

And then she starts to thinkin'

Then maybe she's put you in a blind

She'll give you just a little lovin'

It'll drive you out of your mind

Ain't nothing you can do

I've got a thing about you baby

A thing about lovin' you

I've Got Confidence

When trouble is in my way

I can't tell the night from day

I toss from side to side

Like a ship on a raging tide

I don't worry and I don't fret

God has never failed me yet

Troubles comin' from time to time

But that's all right, 'cause I'm not the worrying kind



Because I, I've got confidence,

God is gonna see me through

No matter what the case may be

I know He's gonna fix it for me



Job was so sick so long

Till the flesh fell from his bones

His wife, cattle and children,

Everything that he had was gone

But Job he never dispaired

He knew that God still cared

Sleepless days and sleepless nights

Job said honey that's all right



'Cause I've got confidence

God is gonna see me through

No matter what the case may be

I know He's gonna fix it for me



Some folks wonder how I smile

Even though I'm going to trial

How can I have song

Everything is going wrong

I don't worry and I don't fret

God has never failed me yet



Trouble's coming from time to time

That's all right, I'm not the worrying kind

'Cause I've got confidence

I've Got To Find My Baby

I've got to find my baby

I wonder where can she be

Has anybody seen her

Send her back to me



She left me here all alone

And I ain't had no lovin' 

Since my baby's been gone

My baby's gone



I've gotta find my baby

I gotta hold her tight and tell her I love her

Tell her everything's all right

So I'll keep searching

All night long

'Cause I ain't had no lovin' 

Since my baby's been gone

My baby's gone 



I've gotta find my baby

I've gotta find my baby

Gotta find my baby



Written by Joe Byers

I've Lost You

Lying by your side I watch you sleeping

And in your face the sweetness of a child

Murmuring the dreams you won't recapture

Though it will haunt the corners of you mind



Who can tell when summer turns to autumn

And who can point the moment love grows cold

Softly happening the joy is over

Though why it's gone neither of us know



Oh, I've lost you yes, I've lost you

I can't reach you anymore 

We ought to talk it over now

But reason can't stand in for feeling



Six o'clock the baby will be crying

And you will stumble, sleepy, to the door

In the chill and sun gray of the morning

We play the parts that we have learned to well



Written by Howard and Blaikly

I Want To Be Free

There's no joy in my heart, 

only sorrow

And I'm sad 

as a man can be

I sit alone in the darkness 

of my lonely room

And this room 

is a prison to me



I look at window 

and what to I see

I see a bird 

way up in the tree

I want to be free free

Free - ee - ee - ee

I want to be free 

like the bird in the tree



What good are my eyes, 

they can't see you

And my arms, 

they can't hold so tight

I have two lips 

that are yearning, 

but they're no good to me

Cause I know I can't kiss you tonight



I look at window 

and what to I see

I see a bird 

way up in the tree

I want to be free free 

Free - ee - ee - ee

I want to be free 

like the bird in the tree

I want to be free 

like the bird in the tree

I Want You, I Need You, I Love You

Hold me close, hold me tight

Make me thrill with delight

Let me know where I stand from the start

I want you, I need you, I love you

With all my heart



Ev'ry time that you're near

All my cares disappear

Darling, you're all that I'm living for

I want you, I need you, I love you

More and more



I thought I could live without romance

Before you came to me

But now I know that

I will go on loving you eternally



Won't you please be my own?

Never leave me alone

'Cause I die ev'ry time we're apart

I want you, I need you, I love you

With all my heart



Written by Kosloff and Mysels

I Want You With Me

When I was little, my mama said to me

"One day you'll find a love to last eternally"

I want you with me everywhere I go

So please don't leave me baby, I love you so



I'll be the ruler of this whole wide world

If you will only say you'll be my girl

I want you with me in everything I do

You know I need you baby, I'm in love with you



There is no mountain that I can't climb

You find the mountain, child, and I'll find the time

I want you with me, with me night and day

Well, you can make me happy baby, don't you go away



I'll swim an ocean with a raging foam

If I know that you'll be there when I come back home

I want you with me, you know I love you so

Well, I want you with me baby, I'll never let you go

Well, I want you with me baby, I'll never let you go

I Was Born About Ten Thousand Years Ago

I saw old pharaoh’s daughter bring Moses from the water

I'll lick the guy that says it isn't so



I was born about ten thousand years ago

There ain't nothing in this world that I don't know

I saved king David’s life and he offered me a wife

I said now you're talking business have a chair



Yeah, I was born about ten thousand years ago

Ain't nothing in this world that I don't know

Saw Peter, Paul and Moses playing ring around the roses

I'll lick the guy that says it isn't so



I was born about ten thousand years ago

Ain't nothing in this world that I don't know

I saw old pharaoh's daughter bring Moses from the water

I'll lick the guy that says it isn't so



I was there when old Noah built the ark

And I crawled in the window after dark

I saw Jonah eat the whale and dance with the lion's tale

And I crossed over Canaan on a log



I was born about ten thousand years ago

Ain't nothing in this world that I don't know

I saw old pharaoh's daughter bring Moses from the water

I'll lick the guy that says it isn't so

I Washed My Hands In Muddy Water

I was born in Macon Georgia

They kept my daddy over in Macon jail

He told me if you keep your hands clean

You won't hear them bloodhounds on your trail



Well I fell in with bad companions

Robbed a man, oh up in Tennessee

They caught me way up in Nashville

They locked me up and threw away the key



I washed my hands in muddy water

Washed my hands, but they didn't come clean

Tried to do what my daddy told me

But I must have washed my hands in a muddy stream



Well I asked the judge now when's my time up

He said son, oh you know we won't forget

If you try just to keep your hands clean

We might just make a good man of you yet



Oh I couldn't wait to get my time up

I broke out, broke out of Nashville jail

I just crossed the state-line of Georgia

Well I can hear those bloodhounds on my trail



I washed my hands in muddy water

Washed my hands, but they didn't come clean

Tried to do what my daddy told me

But I must have washed my hands in a muddy stream

I Was The One

I was the one who taught her to kiss

The way that she kisses you now.

And you know the way she touches your cheek,

Well, I taught her how.



I was the one who taught her to cry

When she wants you under her spell.

The sight of her tears drives you out of your mind,

I taught her so well.



And then one day

I had my love as perfect as could be.

She lived, she loved, she laughed, she cried,

And it was all for me.



I'll never know who taught her to lie.

Now that it's over and done,

Who learned the lesson when she broke my heart?

I was the one.

I will be home again

Don't worry dear

I'll be home again

So won't you dry the tear

The promise in your eyes

Will see me through

There'll be brighter skies

When I come back to you



A-a-ah sweetheart

The love you're giving

Thrills my hungry heart

You make my life worth the living

Although we are apart

I will be home again

We'll start anew

Darling until then

Our dreams will have to do

I will be true

No matter what they may say

I will be true

Although you're far far away

Each night I pray

All day I'll say a silent prayer

That when I open my door

I'll find you there


Somehow I feel

That someday we'll meet again

Don't ask me how

It's something I can't explain

Until the day

I give up all hope of you

Assure yourself this I'll do

I will be true



That someday we'll meet again

It's something I can't explain

Assure yourself this I'll do

I will be true
