ELVIS PRESLEY SONG LYRICS
* A Big Hunk O'love
(Schroeder - Wyche)
Hey baby I ain't asking much of you
No, no, no, no, no, no baby
I ain't asking much of you
Just a big-a, big-a, big-a
Hunk o'love a-will do
Don't be a stingy little momma
You tried to starve me half to death
Now you could spare a kiss or two
And still have many left
No, no, no baby I ain't asking much of you
Just a big-a, big-a, big-a
Hunk o'love a-will do, (a-will do), a-will do, that's right
You're just a natural born beehive
Filled with honey to the top
But I ain't greedy baby
All I want is all you've got
No, no, no baby I ain't asking much of you
Just a big-a, big-a, big-a
Hunk o'love a-will do
I got a wish-bone in my pocket
I got a rabbit's foot around my wrist
Another half of the thing
My lucky charm could bring
If you give me just one sweet kiss
No, no, no baby I ain't asking much of you
Just a big-a, big-a, big-a hunk o'love a-will do, that's nice
Just a big-a, big-a, big-a hunk o'love a-will do, that's nice
Just a big-a, big-a, big-a hunk o'love a-will do, that's nice
* A Boy Like Me A Girl Like You
(Tepper / Bennett)
(Recorded for the film "Girls! Girls! Girls!)
When a boy like me meets a girl like you
Then I must believe wishes come true
I just look at you and I touch your hand
And this ordinary world becomes a wonderland
* There are many girls I have met before
But I pass them by because I knew
There would be this magic moment,
One to last a lifetime through
When a boy like me meets a girl like you
* Repeat
When a boy like me meets a girl like you
* A Cane And A High Starched Collar
(Tepper / Bennett)
Cowboy, cowboy marry me
I'll bake you a cherry pie
Well thank you very kindly mam
But I'm too young to die
* Hi-lo-do-si-dosy-do
Stay single and save a dollar
Come Saturday night I'll court a pretty girl
With a cane and a high starched collar
Cowboy if you'll marry me
I'll be your darling Jenny
Now why should I drink from just one well
When I can drink from twen'y
* Repeat
Cowboy, cowboy name the day
July 'd be nice I reckon
Gladly meet you at the church
July the 32nd
* Repeat
You sleep all day and spoon all night
And eat your favourite chow
Then why should I get married mam
That's what I'm doing now
* Repeat
* A Dog's Life
(Sid Wayne / Ben Weisman)
(Lyrics contributed by Rien Van Houten)
If I had my life to live over
I know just what I'd like to be
A hybrid pet of a rich brunette
Sitting on my mama's knee
Someone to love me
Someone to care
Rubberduck dubble little fingers through my hair
I need a dog's life
What a life, that's good enough for me
That's good enough for me
If I had a bone to be picking
A picking chicken or a steak
Curled up there in an easy chair
Man, that won't be hard to take
I'll always be faithful
That's what I'd be
Never bite a hand that feeds me, no siree
Just lead a dog's life
What a life
That's good enough for me
That's good enough for me
I'd find me a Fifi la poodle
And lose my noodle over her
I chase around all over town
Just to ruffle up her fur
Nuzzle her muzzle
A hole in her paw
Greatest case of puppy lovin' you ever saw
It's called a dog's life
What a life
That's good enough for me
You heard me say it now
That's good enough for me
That's good enough for me
* (Now And Then There's) A Fool Such As I
(Trader)
(Now and then there's a fool such as I)
Pardon me, if I'm sentimental
When we say goodbye
Don't be angry with me should I cry
When you're gone, yet I'll dream
A little dream as years go by
Now and then there's a fool such as I (fool such as I)
* Now and then there's a fool such as I am over you
You taught me how to love
And now you say that we are through
I'm a fool, but I'll love you dear
Until the day I die
Now and then there's a fool such as I (fool such as I)
(Now and then there's a fool such as I)
* Repeat
Now and then there's a fool such as I
Now and then there's a fool such as I
* A House That Has Everything
(Tepper / Bennett)
(Recorded for the film "Clambake")
I can see you now living like a queen
In a house that has everything, everything but love
Crystal chandeliers, chauffeured limousines
Yes you'll really have everything, everything but love
* I see diamonds, sables, sapphires and pearls
And as the picture clears
Poor little rich girl sitting all alone
Counting her treasures in tears
Better just a shack where two people care
Than a house that has everything, everything but love
* Repeat
Than a house that has everything, everything but love
* A Hundred Years From Now
(Flatt / Scruggs)
* Well a hundred years from now I won't be crying
A hundred years from now I won't be blue
My heart will have to forget that we ever met
But I won't care a hundred years from now
I'll never forget sweetheart the night you told me
That you could Live without my love somehow
That's all in the past I knew it wouldn't last
But I won't care a hundred years from now
* Repeat
* Repeat
* Repeat
* A Little Bit Of Green
(Arnold / Morrow / Martin)
Now that the truth is hard to face
I can't forget you once were mine
Someone else is in my place
Whenever we meet my heart beats out of time
Just a little bit of green
Clouds my eyes to what I've seen
Just a little bit of green
When I see you with someone new
And knowing that there's nothing I can do
Please don't try to tie me down
Those are the words you often say
I can't help seeing you around
You smile with surprise, I turn my eyes away
* Just a little bit of green
Wow-oh-ho, clouds my eyes to what I've seen
Just a little bit of green
When I see you with someone new
And knowing that there's nothing I can do
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
* Repeat
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Just a little bit of green
* A Little Less Conversation
(Strange / Davis)
(Recorded for the film "Live A Little, Love A Little")
* A little less conversation, a little more action please
All this aggravation ain't satisfactioning me
A little more bite and a little less bark
A little less fight and a little more spark
Close your mouth and open up your heart and baby satisfy me
(Satisfy me) Satisfy me baby (Satisfy me)
Baby close your eyes and listen to the music
Drifting (?) through summer breeze
It's a groovy night and I can show you how to use it
Come along with me and put your mind at ease
* Repeat
Come on baby I'm tired of talking ..........
Grab your coat and let's start walking ........
Come on, come on (come on, come on)
Come on, come on (come on, come on)
Come on, come on (come on, come on)
Don't procastinate, don't articulate
Girl it's getting late, gettin' upset waitin' around
* Repeat
Satisfy me baby ...Satisfy me baby ... Satisy me baby
Satisfy me baby ...Satisfy me ... Satisy me baby
Satisfy me ... Satisy me baby
Satisfy me ... Satisy me baby
Satisfy me ... Satisy me baby
Satisfy me ... Satisy me baby
* A Mess Of Blues
(Pomus - Shuman)
I just got your letter baby
Too bad you can't come home
I swear I'm goin' crazy
Sittin' here all alone
Since your gone
I got a mess of the blues
I ain't slept a week since Sunday
I can't eat a thing all day
Every day is just blue Monday
Since you've been away
Since your gone
I got a mess of the blues
* Whoops there goes a teardrop
Rollin' down my face
If you cry when you're in love
It sure ain't no disgrace
I gotta get myself together
Before I lose my mind
I'm gonna catch the next train goin'
And leave my blues behind
Since your gone
I got a mess of the blues
* Repeat
Since your gone, I got a mess of the blues
Since your gone, I got a mess of the blues
* A Thing Called Love
(Jerry Hubbard)
Six foot six he stood on the ground
Weighed two hundred and thirty-five pounds
But I saw that giant of a man brought
Down to his knees by love
He was the kind of man who'd gamble on love
Look you in the eye and never back up
But I saw him crying like a little whipped pup
Because of love
* Can't see it with your eyes, hold it in your hand
But like the wind it covers our land
Strong enough to rule the heart of any man
This thing called love
It can lift you up, it can put you down
Take your world and turn it all around
Ever since time there's nothing ever been found
Stronger than love
It's men like me, they worry and doubt
They trouble their minds day in and day out
Too busy with living to worry about
A thing called love
But when I see a mother's tenderness
As she holds her young close to her breast
Then I thank my God this world's been blessed
With a thing called love
* Repeat
* A Whistling Tune
(Edwards / David)
Did you ever notice when the sun goes down
Out of nowhere comes a strange and pretty sound
It's a whistling tune for walking in the night
If you listen you can hear it in the breeze
Specially when the breeze is drifting through the trees
It's a whistling tune for walking in the night
And the murmuring waters sing the song
The echoing mountains hum alomg
The whispering valleys fill the air
With a whistling tune our hearts can share
It's so wonderful to walk beneath the moon
Listening to old mother nature's favourite tune
It's a whistling tune for walking in the night
* A WORLD OF OUR OWN
( Giant, Baum, Kaye )
(As sung by Elvis in the 1963 movie "It Happened At The World's Fair")
You kiss me darling, a miracle starts
A magic feeling, comes into our hearts
The spell of love begins, when we're alone
And we're in, a world of our own
You say you want me, and music I hear
Touch me my darling, and clouds disappear
The sky is bright above, and cares have flown
And we're in, a world of our own
Holding you close, is heaven
Only I know, what it's worth
Knowing you're mine, forever
Is the greatest wonder on earth
Nothing can change it, the magic's begun
When we're together, our hearts become one
I find a happiness, I've never known
When we're in, a world of our own
When we're in...a world of our own...
* Adam And Evil
(Wise / Starr)
(Recorded for the film "Spinout")
Now Adam and Evil, they go hand in hand
Eve taught him sin, that's the way it all began
But every time you kiss me, my heart pounds like a drum
So trouble is a woman, trouble ... here I come
I'm lonely like Adam, you're evil like Eve
I shouldn't take forbidden fruit 'cos I believe
I'll be heading straight for heartache
I should cut loose and run
But if loving you means heartache
Heartache, here I come
* You're not the angel that I dreamed about
But you're the devil I don't want to live without
A woman's a woman, a man is a man
I can't be free I'm just putty in your hands
Who cares about tomorrow, I need your love tonight
And even if you're evil, baby .... hold me tight
* Repeat
And baby if you're evil, baby .... hold me tight
Hold me tight
Hold me tight
Hold me tight
* After Loving You
(E. Miller / J. Lantz)
But now after loving you, what else is there to do
For honey, all the rest is just gonna have to be second best
I know I'll go through life comparing her to you
That's 'cos I'm no good, I'm no good to anyone after loving you
* Your precious love cannot be erased by just another woman with a pretty face
And your memory, you know it will remain for it cannot be erased
Other loves may come along, they can't live up to you
That's 'cos I'm no good, I'm no good to anyone after loving you
* Repeat
I said I'm no good, I'm no good to anyone after loving you
I said I'm no good, I'm no good, I'm no good to anyone
To anyone, to anyone, to anyone after loving you
That's 'cos I'm no good, I'm no good to anyone after loving you
* Ain't That Loving You Baby
(Otis - Hunter)
I could ride around the world in an old oxcart
And never let another girl thrill my heart
* Ain't that loving you baby?
Ain't that loving you baby?
Ain't that loving you baby?
Ain't that loving you so?
I could meet a hundred girls and have loads of fun
My huggin' and my kissin' belong to just one
* Repeat
If you gave me nine lives like an alley cat
I'd give 'em all to you and never take one back
* Repeat
I'm putting on my Sunday suit and I'm goin' downtown
But I'll be kissin' your lips before the sun goes down
* Repeat
Ain't that loving you baby?
Ain't that loving you so?
* ALL I NEEDED WAS THE RAIN
( Ben Weisman / Sid Wayne )
(As sung by Elvis in the 1968 movie "Stay Away,Joe")
Hello misfortune, how's my old friend "Mr. Misery"?
I've been away so long I bet you thought you seen the last of me
Got no bed, to rest my head
No doors or walls or window pane
Now all I needed was the rain
rain, rain, rain, rain
Met a little honey at the "Buzzin' Bumble Bee Cafe"
Yes I did
One drink and all my money and that honey bee had flown away
I'm 'bout as low, as I can go
I don't really mean to complain
Now all I needed was the rain
rain, rain...rain..rain
(spoken)
All I needed was this rain...
All I needed was the rain...um..um.....
* All Shook Up
(Blackwell - Presley)
A-well-a bless my soul
What's wrong with me
I'm itching like a man on a fuzzy tree
My friends say I'm acting wild as a bug
I'm in love! I'm all shook up!
Mm-mm-mm mm-mm! Yeah-yeah!!
My hands are shaky and my knees are weak
I can't seem to stand on my own two feet
Who do you thank when you have such luck
I'm in love! I'm all shook up!
Mm-mm-mm mm-mm! Yeah-yeah!!
Please don't ask me what's on my mind
I'm a little mixed up but I'm feeling fine
When I'm near that girl that i love best
My heart beats so it scares me to death
* She touched my hand what a chill I got
Her lips are like a volcano that's hot
I'm proud to say she's my buttercup
I'm in love! I'm all shook up!
Mm-mm-mm mm-mm! Yeah-yeah!!
My tongue gets tied when I try to speak
My insides shake like a leaf on a tree
There's only one cure for this body of mine
That's to have the gal that I love so fine!
* Repeat
Mm-mm-mm mm-mm! Yeah-yeah!!
I'm all shook up!
* All That I Am
(Tepper / Bennett)
(Recorded for the film "Spinout")
All that I am or ever hope to be
Lies in your hands
You are my destiny
When you are in my arms, I rule the world
And when we're far apart, how cruel the world
* All that I want (All that I want) is to be near to you
To spend my life (To spend my life) making it clear to you
You are my heart, my soul, my dream come true
All that I am, I am because of you
* Repeat
Because of you
Because of you
* Allá En El "Rancho Grande"
(Ramos / Urange / Del Moral)
Allá en el rancho grande
Allá donde vívía
Hablá una rancherita
Que alegre me decía
Que alegre me decía:
"Te voy hacer unas calzones
comos los que esa el ranchero
Los comenzo de lana
y los acabo de hierro."
There in the great ranch
There where she used to live
There used to be a cowgirl
Who joyfully used to tell me
Who joyfully used to tell me
"I'm going to make some trousers
like those which the cowboy wears
I'm starting them with wool
and I'm finishing them with iron."
* Almost
(Kaye / Weisman)
(Recorded for the film "The Trouble With Girls" but not used)
We almost shared a dream
We almost made it as a team
How nice it would have been.
We almost touched the stars
And there stood heaven, almost ours
We were just outsiders looking in.
We had the chance to fall
But fate stepped in to end it all
Before it could begin.
And if it's true, you're really going
There's nothing but goodbye to say
The saddest part of all is knowing
We almost went all the way
* ALMOST ALWAYS TRUE
(Fred Wise / Ben Weisman)
(Lyrics contributed by Rien Van Houten)
I was always
Baby I was always
Well almost always true to you
Met a pretty mademoiselle
Her papa owned a small hotel
Oh, I was almost always true to you
I resisted though my arm was twisted
I was almost always true to you
I stayed away from drink and wine
Thought about you all the time
Oh, I was almost always true to you
Kept refusing
Don't jump to conclusions
I was almost always true to you
I would never grab like this
I would never steal a kiss
Oh, I was almost always true to you
I was almost always true to you
* Almost In Love
(L. Bonfa - R. Starr)
Your lips were made for kisses so tender
I'm almost in love tonight
When we are close, my heart says surrender
I'm almost in love tonight
And here under the spell of evening
I long to hold you tight
Heaven is near, why think of tomorrow
I'm almost in love tonight
It may be just the spell of evening
I long to hold you tight
Heaven is near, why think of tomorrow
I'm almost in love tonight
(Love Tonight)
Almost in love
* ALOHA `OE
(Queen Liliuokalani, Arr.by Elvis)
(As sung by Elvis in the 1961 movie "Blue Hawaii")
ALOHA `OE
Written by Queen Liliuokalani, I quote the following from the book "Na Mele
O Hawaii `I Nei - 101 Hawaiian songs" by Elbert and Mahoe:
"This most famous of all Hawaiian songs was for decades sung for every
departing and arriving steamer. A rather ambiguous statement in "Hawaii's Story
By Hawaii's Queen".. suggests that the song was composed while the Queen
(Liliuokalani) was imprisoned in `Iolani Palace, but on a copy of the song
in her own handwriting in the State Archives, are the place and date:
Maunawili, 1877..."
ALOHA `OE
Ha `aheo `e ka ua i na pali
Ke nihi a `ela i ka nahele
E uhai ana paha i ka liko
Pua `ahiahi lehua o uka
(Proudly the rain on the cliffs
Creeps into the forest
Seeking the buds
And miniature lehua flowers of the uplands)
Hui:
Aloha `oe, aloha `oe
E ke onaona noho i ka lipo
One fond embrace, a ho `i a `e au
A hui hou aku
Chorus:
(Farewell to you, farewell to you
O fragrance in the blue depths
One fond embrace and I leave
To meet again)
`O ka hali `a aloha ka i hiki mai
Ke hone a `e nei i ku `u manawa
`O `oe no ka `u ipo aloha
A loko e hana nei
(Sweet memories come
Sound softly in my heart
You are my beloved sweetheart
Felt within)
Maopopo ku `u `ike i ka nani
Na pua rose o Mauna-wili
I laila ho `ohie na manu
Miki `ala i ka mani o ia pua
(I understand the beauty
Of rose blossoms at Mauna-wili
There the birds delight
Alert the beauty of this flower
* Always On My Mind
Maybe I didn't love you
Quite as often as I could have
And maybe I didn't treat you
Quite as good as I should have
If I made you feel second best
Girl I'm sorry I was blind
You were always on my mind
You were always on my mind
And maybe I didn't hold you
All those lonely, lonely times
And I guess I never told you
I'm so happy that you're mine
Little things I should have said and done
I just never took the time
You were always on my mind
You were always on my mind
Tell me,
Tell me that your sweet love hasn't died
Give me,
Give me one more chance to keep you satisfied
I'll keep you satisfied
* AM I READY
(Tepper,Bennett)
(As sung by Elvis in the 1966 movie "Spinout")
Am I ready, can my heart be true?
Am I ready, to fall in love with you
One love, one girl,one dream shared by two
Am I ready, to fall in love with you
I have touched your lips,and now I know
I would be a fool, to let you go
Should I, could I, how I wish I knew
Am I ready, to fall in love with you
Should I, could I, how I wish I knew
Am I ready, to fall in love with you
Fall in love...with..you...
* Amazing Grace
(Arranged by Elvis Presley)
Amazing Grace, well how sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me
I once was lost, but now am found
Was blind, but now I see
When we've been there ten thousand years
Bright shining as the sun
We've no less days to sing God's praise
Than when, when we'd first begun
Through many dangers, toils and snares
I have already come
'Tis Grace that brought me safe thus far
And Grace will lead me home
Amazing Grace, well how sweet the sound
To saved a wretch like me
I once was lost, but now am found
Was blind, but now I see
Was blind, but now I see
* AMEN
(Trad.Arr.by Elvis)
(As sung by Elvis in concert 1976-77)
Amen...Amen...A-men, A-men A-men
Amen..........
Elvis used this traditional spiritual in his live concerts, usually with "I
Got A Woman". The song can be sung over and over repeatedly in improvisation.
* AMERICA THE BEAUTIFUL
(Trad. Arr. by Elvis Presley)
(As sung by Elvis in concert in 1976 to commemorate the U.S. Bi-Centennial.)
O beautiful for spacious skies
For amber waves of grain
For purple mountain majesties
Above thy fruited plain
America, America
God shed His grace on thee
And crown thy good with brotherhood
>From sea to shining sea
spoken
For beautiful..for spacious skies

* An American Trilogy
Oh I wish I was in the land of cotton
Old things they are not forgotten
Look away, look away, look away Dixieland
Oh I wish I was in Dixie, away, away
In Dixieland I take my stand
To live and die in Dixie
Cause Dixieland, that's where I was born
Early Lord one frosty morning
Look away, look away, look away Dixieland
Glory, glory hallelujah
Glory, glory hallelujah
Glory, glory hallelujah
His truth is marching on
So hush little baby, don't you cry
You know your daddy's bound to die
But all my trials, Lord
Will soon be over
Glory, glory hallelujah
His truth is marching on
His truth is marching on
* An Evening Prayer
(Battersby / Gabriel)
If I have wounded any soul today
If I have caused one's foot to go astray
If I have walked in my own willful way
Dear Lord, forgive
Forgive the sins I have confessed to thee
Forgive my secret sins I do not see
Oh guide, watch over and my keeper be
Dear Lord, Amen
* And I Love You So
(Don Mclean)
And I love you so
The people ask me how
How I've lived till now
I tell them I don't know
I guess they understand
How lonely life has been
But life began again
The day you took my hand
* And yes I know how lonely life can be
Shadows follow me
And the night won't set me free
But I don't let the evening get me down
Now that you're around me
And you love me too
Your thoughts are just for me
You set my spirits free
I'm happy that you do
The book of life is brief
Once the page is read
All but love is dead
This is my belief
* Repeat
* And The Grass Won't Pay No Mind
(Neil Diamond)
Listen easy, you can hear God calling
Walking barefoot by the stream
Come unto me, your hair's softly falling
On my face as in a dream
And the time will be our time
And the grass won't pay no mind
Saying nothing, lying where the sun is
Baking down upon our sides
My lips touch you, with their soft wet kisses
Your hands gentle in reply
And the time will be our time
And the grass won't pay no mind
Child, touch my soul with your cries
And the music will know what we've found
I hear a hundred goodbyes
But today I hear only one sound
The moment we're living is now
Now now now now now now now
Young birds flying, and a soft wind blowing
Cools the sweat inside my palms
Close my eyes, hear the flowers growing
As you lay sleeping in my arms
And the time will be our time
And the grass won't pay no mind
No the grass won't pay no mind
* ANGEL
(Sid Tepper and Roy C. Bennett)
As sung by Elvis in the 1962 movie "FOLLOW THAT DREAM"
Angel, with those angel eyes
Come and take this earth boy
Up to paradise
Angel, may I hold you tight?
Never kissed an angel
Let me kiss one tonight
If I said "I love you"
Would I be speaking out of turn?
I'm only human, but I'm willing to learn
Angel, make my wish come true
Let me be in heaven here on earth with you
Angel.......never kissed an angel
Let me kiss one tonight
If I said "I love you"
Would I be speaking out of turn?
I'm only human, but I'm willing to learn
Angel, make my wish come true
Let me be in heaven here on earth with you
Angel, Angel...
* ANIMAL INSTINCT
(Giant, Baum, Kaye)
(As recorded for the 1965 movie "Harum Scarum" but was cut from the final
release)
Don't ever take your eyes off me
Not even for a minute
'cause like a panther I might pounce
And there'd be danger in it
I can be sneaky, fast as a snake
I strike like a cobra, make no mistake
And baby you'll be trapped, quick as a wink
It's animal instinct
Don't think that I won't pin you down
No matter how you plead it
I'm like a lion who's been caged
And you've the meat I'm needin'
Watch out I'll warn ya', sharp as a hawk
I'm wild as a tiger, I prowl and I stalk
'cause when a man feels thirst, he takes a drink
It's animal instinct
You better not be caught off guard
This wolf is on the search now
A leopard just can't change it's spots
And I'm about to lurch now
Loves like a jungle, I'll fight tooth and nail
I've just gotta get you, you'll fall without fail
I'm ready for the kill, I'm right on the brink
It's animal instinct...
It's animal instinct.....animal instinct...
* Any Day Now
(B. Bacharach / B. Hilliard)
Any day now I will hear you say
Goodbye my love
You'll be on your way
Then my wild beautiful bird
You will have flown
Any day now I'll be all alone
Whoa, whoa whoa
Any day now, when your restless eyes
Meet someone new
To my sad surprise
Then the blue shadow will fall all over town
Any day now
Love will let me down
Whoa whoa whoa
I know I shouldn't want to keep you
If you don't want to stay, yeh
Until you've gone forever
I'll be holding on for dear life
Holding you this way
Begging you to stay
Any day now
When the clock strikes go
You'll call it off
Then my tears will flow
Then the blue shadow will fall all over town
Any day now
Love will let me down
Whoa whoa whoa
Whoa any day now
Whoa whoa whoa
Whoa any day now
Don't fly away my beautiful bird
Don't fly away my beautiful bird
* Anyone (Could Fall In Love With You)
(Benjamin / Marcus DeJesus)
(Recorded for the film "Kissing Cousins")
Anyone could fall in love with you
Anyone who knows you as I do
Anyone could fall in love with you
And I love you my darling
Anyone could lose his heart like me
Anyone who has eyes that can see
Anyone could fall in love like me
And I love you my darling
You're the star I reached for
You're a dream so rare
You're my greatest treasure
Nothing can compare
Anyone could want you for his own
Anyone not only mine alone
Anyone could fall in love with you
And I love you my darling
Anyone could fall in love with you
And I love you my darling
* Anyplace Is Paradise
(Thomas)
Whether you're riding down a highway
Or walkin' down a street
It makes no difference baby
I'm gonna love you just as mean
'Cause holdin' your little hand
Makes me feel so very nice
Anyplace is paradise
When I'm with you
Whether we're standin' on a doorstep
Or sittin' in a park
Or strollin' down a shady lane
Or dancin' in the dark
Well I can take you in my arms
And look into your pretty eyes
Anyplace is paradise
When I'm with you
Give me a cave up in the mountain
Or a shack down by the sea
And I will be in heaven honey
If you are there with me
Well kiss your pretty lips
See the love-light in your eyes
Anyplace is paradise
When I'm with you
Baby I'd live deep in the jungle
And sleep up in a tree
And let the rest of the world go by
If you were there with me
Well I could love you all the time
Baby, a jungle would be fine
Anyplace is paradise
When I'm with you
* Anything That's Part Of You
(Don Robertson)
I memorize the note you sent
Go all the places that we went
I seem to search the whole day through
For anything that's part of you
I kept a ribbon from your hair
A breath of perfume lingers there
It helps to cheer me when I'm blue
Anything that's part of you
Oh, how it hurts to miss you so
When I know you don't love me anymore
To go on needing you
Knowing you don't need me
No reason left for me to live
What can I take, what can I give
When I'd give all of someone new
For anything that's part of you
* Anyway You Want Me (That's How I Will Be)
(Aron Schroeder / Cliff Owens)
I'll be as strong as a mountain
Or weak as a willow tree
Anyway you want me
Well, that's how I will be
I'll be as tame as a baby
Or wild as the raging sea
Anyway you want me
Well, that's how I will be
In your hands my heart is clay
To take and hold as you may
I'm what you make me
You've only to take me
And in your arms I will stay-ay-ay
I'll be a fool or a wise man
My darling you hold the key
Yes, anyway you want me
Well, that's how I will be
I will be.
* Are You Lonesome Tonight
(Roy Turk / Lou Handman)
Are you lonesome tonight
Do you miss me tonight
Are you sorry we drifted apart
Does your memory stray to a bright summer day
When I kissed you and called you sweetheart
Do the chairs in your parlour seem empty and bare
Do you gaze at your doorstep and picture me there
Is your heart filled with pain
Shall I come back again
Tell me dear, are you lonesome tonight
(Spoken)
I wonder if you're lonesome tonight
You know someome said that the worlds a stage
And each must play a part
Fate had me playing in love with you as my sweetheart
Act one was when we met
I loved you at first glance
You read your lines so cleverly and never missed a cue
Then came act two
You seemed to change - you acted strange
And why, I'll never know
Honey you lied when you said you loved me
And I had no cause to doubt you
But I'd rather go on hearing your lies
Than to go on living without you
Now the stage is bare and I'm standing there
With emptiness all around
And if you won't come back to me
Then they can bring the curtain down
Is your heart filled with pain
Shall I come back again
Tell me, dear, are you lonesome tonight
* Are You Sincere
(Wayne Walker)
Are you sincere when you say I love you
Are you sincere when you say you love me too
Oh and are you really mine every day, all the time
I've gotta know which way to go
Will our love grow, are you sincere
Mmmmm
(Spoken)
Are you sincere when you say I love you
Honey, are you sincere when you say you love me too
And are you really mine every day, all the time
I've gotta know which way to go
Will our love grow, are you sincere
(Are you sincere)
* As Long As I Have You
(Wise / Weisman)
Let the stars fade and fall
And I won't care at all
As long as I have you
Every kiss brings a thrill
And I know that it will
As long as I have you
* Let's think of the future
Forget the past
You're not my first love
But you're my last
Take the love that I bring
Then I'll have everything
As long as I have you

As long, as long as I have you
(As long as I have you)

Ask me if I wanted to caress you
And I'll confess
Ask me if I'm longing to possess you
I'll answer yes

And I swear that I would never let you go
There's no question that I care more than you know
Love me darling, just be mine completely
And there's nothing I won't do if you
Just ask me
* Repeat
Just ask me
* You're So Square (Baby I Don't Care)
(Leiber / Stoller)
You don't like crazy music
You don't like rockin' bands
You just want to go to a movie show
And sit there holding hands
You're so square
Baby I don't care
You don't like hot rod racing
Or driving late at night
You just want to park where it's nice and dark
You just want to hold me tight
You're so square
Baby I don't care
You don't know any dance steps that are new
No one else can love me like you do, do, do, do

I only know it does
I wonder why I love you babe
I guess it's just because
You're so square
Baby I don't care

(Joy Byers)
(Recorded for the film "Double Trouble")
I'll send you red roses by the dozen
I'll call you sweet little things like turtle dove
I'll whisper pretty things in your ear
The kinda things a girl likes to hear
Baby, if you'll give me all of your love
I'll bring you pounds and pounds of chocolate candy
To prove it's you that I've been thinking of
Tear up all the pictures I own of every pretty girl I've ever known
Baby, if you'll give me all of your love
* I'll take you dancin' every night until you're ready to drop
I'll kiss your sweet red cherry lips until you holler stop
Every night I'll serenade you 'neath your window

I'll hug you squeeze you tight as I can
It ain't gonna be no one-night stand
Baby, if you'll give me all of your love
· Repeat
Baby, if you'll give me all of your love
If you will give me, if you will give me all your love

* BEACH BOY BLUES
(Tepper, Bennett)
(As sung by Elvis in the 1961 movie "Blue Hawaii")
I'm a poor Hawaiian beach boy
A long way, from the beach
Cause' someone shoved his face against my hand
Now I'm a kissin' cousin, to a ripe pineapple
I'm in the can
I was mindin' my own business
Drinkin' Daddy's juice
I swear I'll never touch that stuff again
Just like the pig before he gave his...
All at the luau
I'm...in the pen
Got those beach boy blues
Don't the time go slow?
Lonely beach boy blues
Only thirty days and ninety years to go
I wanna taste the honey
From my wahini's lips
I wanna be her ever-lovin' man
But I'm a kissin' cousin, to a ripe pineapple
I'm in the can
But I'm a kissin' cousin to a ripe pineapple
I'm in the can...

* Because Of Love
(Batchelor / Roberts)
Because of love, I'm a hundred feet tall
I can bounce this world like a little old ball
The heaven and earth are now all mine
I've jumped to the moon from cloud number nine
Because, because, because, because of love
Because of love, I'm a mighty big man
I hold the sun in the palm of my hand
Just one leap I can cross the seas
Jump over mountains and fly over trees
Because, because, because, because of love
Well I found love, I found love
That's all that I can say
Oh I'll never, never, I'll never, never
Never let it get away
Because of love, I'm the happiest guy
And life is sweet as cherry cream pie
Well heaven and earth are now all mine
I've jumped to the moon from cloud number nine
Because, because, because, because of love
Because, because, because, because of love

(Tepper / Bennett)
(Recorded for the film "Frankie And Johnny")
First time I fell in love
I fell in love with you
First time I dared to dream
My only dream came true
Must be beginner's luck
To wish upon a star
That opened up my eyes
And there you are

I own no lucky charms
How then can I explain
An angel in my arms
Must be beginner's luck
What else can it be
When someone wonderful as you
Loves me

* BEYOND THE BEND
(Weisman / Wise / Fuller)
(Lyrics contributed by Rien Van Houten)
Breeze sing a happy song
This heart of mine is singing right along
Don't know where I'm going
Don't know where it ends
Till the grass is greener, beyond the bend
I haven't got a care
I'm just on my way to anywhere
Pocketful of nothing, nothing I can spend
Hope the grass is greener, beyond the bend
* Beyond the bend,
Perhaps there'll be somebody waiting who's right for me
So I got to move around
And I know I've got to cover ground
Oh the trip is shorter when you got a friend
Gotta find that rainbow beyond the bend
* Repeat
Beyond the bend, beyond the bend
* Beyond The Reef
(Jack Pitman)
Beyond the reef where the sea is dark and cold
My love has gone from me and my dreams grow cold
There'll be no tears, there'll be no regretting
Will she remember me, will she forget?
* I'll send a thousand flowers
Where the trade winds blow
I'll send my lonely heart for I love her so
Some day I know, she'll come back again to me
Till then my heart will be beyond the reef
* Repeat
Till then my heart will be beyond the reef
* Big Boots
(Wayne - Edwards)
They call your daddy "Big Boots"

Your love yes your big love
Will be here to stay
* Bitter They Are, Harder They Fall
(Larry Gatlin)
I told her to leave me alone
That's what she's done, just what she's done
And a house built for two, ain't a home
When it's lived in by one, one lonely one
And I can no longer hear footsteps, come right down the hall
Here come the teardrops, bitter they are, harder they fall
She caught me lying ........ then she caught a train
And I caught a fever walking home in the rain
Oh yeh!
But it's over and I'm done
She left me once and for all (once and for all)
Here come the teardrops, bitter they are, harder they fall
Here come the teardrops, bitter they are, harder they fall
Oo-oo-oo-oo
* Black Star
(Wayne / Edwards)
Every man has a black star
A black star over his shoulder
And when a man sees his black star
He knows his time, his time has come
* Black star don't shine on me, black star
Black star keep behind me, black star
There's a lot of livin' I gotta do
Give me time to make a few dreams come true
Black star
When I ride I feel that black star
That black star over my shoulder
So I ride in front of that black star
Never lookin' around, never lookin' around
* Repeat
One fine day I'll see that black star
That black star over my shoulder
And when I see that old black star
I'll know my time, my time has come
* Repeat
* BLUE CHRISTMAS
(Hayes / Johnson)
(Lyrics contributed by Rien Van Houten)
I'll have a blue Christmas without you
I'll be so blue just thinking about you
Decorations of red on a green Christmas tree
Won't be the same dear if you're not here with me
And when those blue snowflakes start fallin'
That's when those blue memories start callin'
You'll be doin' all right with your Christmas of white
But I'll have a blue, blue, blue, blue Christmas
You'll be doin' all right with your Christmas of white
But I'll have a blue, blue, blue, blue Christmas
(Ommited verse ?)
I'll have a blue Christmas, that's certain
And when that blue hearache starts hurtin'
You'll be doin' all right
With your Christmas of white
But I'll have a blue, blue Christmas
* Blue Eyes Crying In The Rain
(Fred Rose)
In the twilight glow I see her
Blue eyes crying in the rain
When we kissed goodbye and parted
I knew we'd never meet again
Love is like a dying ember
Only memories remain
Through the ages I remember
Blue eyes crying in the rain
Someday when we meet up yonder
We'll stroll hand in hand again
In a land that knows no parting
Blue eyes crying in the rain
Blue eyes crying in the rain
(Blue eyes crying in the rain)
(Blue eyes crying in the rain)
Blue eyes crying in the rain
Blue eyes crying in the rain
* BLUE HAWAII
(Robin / Rainger)
(Lyrics contributed by Rien Van Houten)
Night and you and blue Hawaii
The night is heavenly
And you are heaven to me
Lovely you and blue Hawaii
With all this loveliness
There should be love
Come with me while the moon is on the sea
The night is young and so are we
So are we
Dreams come true in blue Hawaii
And mine could all come true
This magic night of nights with you
Come with me while the moon is on the sea (the moon is on the sea)
The night is young and so are we
So are we
Dreams come true in blue Hawaii
And mine could all come true
This magic night of nights with you
* Blue Moon
(Lorenz Hart / Richard Rogers)
Blue moon, you saw me standing alone
Without a dream in my heart, without a love of my own.
Blue moon, you knew just what I was there for
You heard me saying a prayer for
Someone I really could care for.
Blue, Blue, without a love of my own.
Blue moon, you saw me standing alone
Without a dream in my heart, without a love of my own.
Blue, Whaaaaa, without a love of my own.
Blue moon, Blue, Whaa Whaa Whaa Whaa Whaa without a love of my own.
Omitted
(And then there suddenly appeared before me
the only one my arms will ever hold. I heard somebody whisper,
'Please adore me' and when I looked, the moon had turned to gold.)
Blue moon, now I'm no longer alone, without a dream in my heart,
without a love of my own.
* Blue Moon of Kentucky
(Bill Monroe)
Blue moon, blue moon, blue moon, keep on shining bright

Blue moon, keep shining bright
I said blue moon of Kentucky, keep on shining
Shine on the one that's gone and left me blue
I said blue moon of Kentucky keep on shining
Shine on the one that's gone and left me blue
Well, it was on one moonlight night
Stars shining bright
Wish blown high, love said good-bye.
Blue moon of Kentucky keep on shining
Shine on the one that's gone and left me blue
Well, I said blue moon of Kentucky
Just keep on shining
Shine on the one that's gone and left me blue
I said blue moon of Kentucky keep on shining
Shine on the one that's gone and left me blue
Well, it was on one moonlight night
Stars shining bright
Wish blown high, love said good-bye.
Blue moon of Kentucky keep on shining
Shine on the one that's gone and left me blue.
* Blue River
(Evans / Tobias)
Blue river, it can't be found on any map that I know
But it's the place where lonely lovers all go
To cry their tears, blue river
It winds along a path of heartache and pain
Of broken dreams from lovin' someone in vain
Like I loved you, and baby I still do
* I held you so tight
You were out of my sight
I'm feelin' so low
But I gotta go
Blue river because you never really cared about me
From now on baby that's where I'm gonna be
Cryin' over you, by the river of blue
* Repeat

I said take it easy baby I work all day
And my feet feel just like lead
You got my shirt tail flying all over the place
And the sweat poppin' out of my head
She said hey bossa nova baby keep on workin'
For this ain't no time to quit
She said go bossa nova baby keep on dancin'

She said go bossa nova baby keep on dancin'
Or I'll find myself another cat
Bossa nova, Bossa nova

* Bridge Over Troubled Water
(Paul Simon)
When you're weary, feeling small
When tears are in your eyes, I will dry them all
I'm on your side. Oh, when times get rough
And friends just can't be found
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
Oh,like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
When you're down and out
When you're on the street
When evening falls so hard
I will comfort you
I'll take your part
Oh, when darkness falls
And pain is all around
Yes, like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
Oh, like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
Sail on silvergirl
Sail on by
Your time has come to shine
All your dreams are on their way
See how they shine
Oh, if you need a friend
I'm sailing right behind
Yes, like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind
* Bringin' It Back
(Greg Gordon)
If I can never see you, if I can never hold you
If I can never touch your face or feel your warm embrace
I still remember talkin', I still remember laughin'
I still remember lovin' a lot just touchin' you
Babe I've not forgot
Only bringin' it back, only just bringin' it back
A familiar place or a familiar face just brings it all back
Everything's bringin' it back, good songs bringin' it back
Even after so much time you know everything's bringin' it back
Thinkin' in my solitude, wonderin' 'bout your attitude
Thinkin' maybe that your love has died
There it is, I can see it in your eyes
That look of sweet surrender, a touch of too much sadness
'Cause I've hurt you so, you know your sorrow shows.
And you just can't stay, but you can't let go
Everything's bringin' it back, you know it's just bringin' it back
A familiar place or a familiar face just brings it all back
* Everything's bringin' it back, good songs bringin' it back
And even after so much time you know everything's bringin' it back
* Repeat
Bringin' it back, bringin' it back
* Britches
(Wayne / Edwards)
(Recorded for the film "Flaming Star" but not used in the film)
Beware of a gal in britches
Yo-di-o-di-o
Never trust no gal in britches
No-di-o-di-o
If you had a sense of this here horse
You would have knowed by now of course
Who wears the britches is the boss
That's a gal, that's a gal in britches
Don't mess with a gal in britches
Yo-di-o-di-o
No feminine gal wears britches
No-di-o-di-o
She'll beg you to come to the country dance
You ride twenty miles for the big romance
She shows up in her brother's pants
What'd you expect from a girl in britches
Yo-di-o-di-o-i-ay, It's none of my misfortune
Yo-di-o-di-o-di-ay, Just thought you'd like to know
Don't marry no gal in britches
Yo-di-o-di-o
You'll never know which is which's
No-di-o-di-o
She'll put a halter through your nose
Have you cooking and washing clothes
While she goes chasing them buffaloes
Bet your boots, that's a gal in britches.
* Brown-Eyed Handsome Man
(Lyrics by Chuck Berry)
(Contributed by Greg Webb - Thanks Greg!)
Arrested on charges of unemployment, he was sittin' in the witness stand
The judges' wife called up the district attorney, she said free that
Brown-Eyed Man
If you want your job, you better free that Brown-Eyed Man
Flyin' across the desert in a TWA, I saw a woman walkin' across the sand
She'd been walkin' 30 miles en route to Bombay to meet a Brown-Eyed
Handsome Man
Her destination was a Brown-Eyed Handsome Man
Way back in history 3,000 years, in fact ever since the world began
There's been a whole lotta good women sheddin' tears for a Brown-Eyed
Handsome Man
That's a lotta trouble for a Brown-Eyed Handsome Man
Beautiful daughter couldn't make up her mind between a doctor and a
lawyer man
Her mother told her, darlin', go out and find yourself a Brown-Eyed
Handsome Man
Just like your daddy, he's a Brown-Eyed Handsome Man
Marlo Venus was a beautiful lass, she had the world in the palm of her
hand
She lost both her arms in a wrestling match to meet a Brown-Eyed
Handsome Man
She fought and won herself a Brown-Eyed Handsome Man
2-3 the count with nobody on, he hit a high fly into the stands
Rounded third, he was headed for home, it was a Brown-Eyed Handsome Man
That won the game, it was a Brown-Eyed Handsome Man
* Burning Love
(Dennis Linde)
Lord Almighty I feel my temperature risin'
Higher and higher it's burning through to my soul
Girl, girl, girl, you're gonna set me on fire
Mmm, my brain is flamin' I don't know which way to go
Your kisses lift me higher like the sweet song of a choir
You light my morning sky with burning love, Mmm
Ooh-hoo-hoo, I feel my temperature risin'
Help me I'm flamin', It must be a hundred and nine
Burnin', burnin', burnin' and nothing can cool me, Yeh
I just might turn to smoke but I feel fine
'Cos your kisses lift me higher like the sweet song of a choir
And you light my morning sky with burning love
It's comin' closer, the flames are now lickin' my body
Won't you help me I feel like I'm slippin' away
It's hard to breathe, my chest is a heavin'
Lord have mercy I'm burnin' the whole world away
Your kisses lift me higher like the sweet song of a choir
You light my morning sky with burning love
I'm just a hunk of burning love
Just a hunk, a hunk of burnin' love
Just a hunk, a hunk of burnin' love
A hunk, a hunk of burnin' love
A hunk, a hunk of burnin' love
Just a hunk, a hunk of burnin' love
A hunk, a hunk of burnin' love
A hunk, a hunk of burnin' love
* By And By
(Traditional - arranged by Elvis Presley)
* Well children by and by when the morning comes
All the saints of God together in home
We will tell the story how the Lord will come
And we'll understand him better by and by
Trials dark on every hand and we cannot understand
All the ways God will lead us
To the blessed promised land
He will guide us with his eye
And we'll follow till we die
And we'll understand him better by and by
* Repeat
Temptation's hidden snares often take the sun away
And our hearts are made to bleed
For some thoughtless word or deed
And we wonder why the test when we try to do our best
But we'll understand it better by and by
* Repeat
And we'll understand him better by and by

Take my hand, take my whole life, too
For I can't help falling in love with you

(Wise / Starr)
(Recorded for the film "Roustabout")
Aha-ha hurry, hurry step this way
Aha-ha hurry, hurry step this way
Now the show you're going to see is strictly high class
There'll be ten hoola dancers shaking their grass
So step right up and put your money down
This way ...... to Carny Town
We got a man so skinny you can see his bones
We play on his ribs like a xylophone
With a pair of spoons we get a rockin' song
You'll hear it all, in Carny Town
Hurry, hurry, hurry, the house is almost full
We got a two headed cow and that's no bull
There's a man who swallows swords and he never gets hurt
He eats razor blades for dessert
He's just about the sharpest guy around
You'll see him here, in Carny Town
Aha-ha hurry, hurry step this way
Aha-ha hurry, hurry step this way
Aha-ha hurry, hurry step this way
Aha-ha hurry, hurry step this way
Aha-ha .... I say we're gonna win
I said hurry up
* Catchin' On Fast
(Giant / Baum / Kaye)
(Recorded for the film "Kissing Cousins")
Won't you show me how to kiss
Put your lips on mine
Do you do it just like this
Tell me I'm doing fine
We got a good thing going now take your time
Come on and make it last.
Love may be new to you but Oooh, I'm catchin' on fast
Give, give, gimme all you've got to give
Love, love, love every moment you live
Now you've taught me all you know
Have I passed the test
Show me all you've got to show
Baby you're the best
But tell me I've learned quickly and I know each trick
I'm sure love's gonna last
Love maybe new to you but Oooh I'm catchin' on fast
* Change Of Habit
(B. Kaye / B. Weisman)
(Recorded for the film "Change Of Habit")
If you're in old habits
Set in your old ways
Changes are a-comin'
For these are changing days
And if your head is in the sand
While things are goin' on
What you need, what you need,
What you need is a change of habit
Now if you're in the habit
To let your temper fly
When you talk with people
Who don't see eye to eye
And if you don't believe it
There's a newer world ahead
What you need, what you need,
What you need is a change of habit
* A change of habit, a change of outlook
A change of heart, you'll be alright
The halls of darkness
Have doors that open
It's never too late
To see the light
** So if you're in the habit
Of putting people down
Just because they're different
From the wrong side of town
Well, don't count on any medals son
They're pinning none on you
What you need, what you need,
What you need is a change of habit
* Repeat
** Repeat
Change of habit
Change of habit
* CHARRO
(Strange,Davis)
(As sung by Elvis in the 1969 movie "Charro")
With eyes that hide the man within
You see behind the eyes of other men
You've lived and died and come to life again
And now you're standing alone at the crossroads of your mind
You've left your yesterdays behind..
But which road leads you to tomorrow?
Charro...
You've turned your back on yesterday
Betrayed a man who swore he'd make you pay
For when you left you took his bride away
You know he'll never let you break away so easily
You'll have to fight, before you're free
But how much more time can you borrow?
Charro...
Now in a single moment your past grows dim
One thought goes racing across your mind
You ride to meet the woman you stole from him
Oh no!...Charro don't go!...
Charro don't go!!...
There's something hanging in the wind
Your past is catching up and closing in
You've been halfway to hell and back again
And now you laugh in the devil's face with your last breath...
You'll run a race with life and death...
But will you live to see tomorrow?
Charro...
* Chesay
(Karger / Weisman / Wayne)
(Recorded for the film "Frankie And Johnny")
* What's in the drink, chase the devil away
Magic I think so I just say Chesay
Chesay, Chesay bring you good luck night and day
Chesay, Chesay that's the gypsy way
Trouble is my middle name, though it's such a crying shame
Try and try there's nothing I can do
But I'm feeling kinda strange, feel like things are going to change
Time my lucky star was shining through
Chesay, Chesay bring you good luck night and day
Chesay, Chesay that's the gypsy way
Drink a cup of gypsy love just tip it up and then you just say Chesay
Swallow once then swallow twice, goes down so nice just say Chesay. Hey!

Chesay, Chesay brings you good luck night and day
Chesay, Chesay that's the gypsy way
Chesay, Chesay brings you good luck night and day

* Cindy, Cindy
(Kaye / Weisman / Fuller)
Wish I was an apple dangling from a tree
Every time you'd pass me by you'd take a bite of me
I wish I was a bluebird I'd never fly away
I'd sit up on your shoulder baby and sing to you all day
* Come on home Cindy Cindy, Come on home Cindy Cindy
Come on home Cindy Cindy, Come on home to me
I wrote it in a letter, carved it on a tree
Told it to a honeycomb, told it to a bee
Told them that I love you, they all know its true
Say it till the cows come home until it gets to you
* Repeat
Need you in the morning to start the coffee pot
Need you in the afternoon to fan me when I'm hot
Need you in the evening when supper time is through
What I'm really tryin' to say is I can't get enough of you
* Repeat
If I were a musician I'd harp on just one thing
You should never play my harp the way you pluck a string
If only you would love me say it and tell me so
I need two charms about me baby to have the whole world know
* Repeat

* City By Night
(Giant / Baum / Kaye)
(Recorded for the film "Double Trouble")
When shadows beckon on dim-lit avenues
Night people hear the call
From hidden alleys, secret rendezvous
They come out one and all
* The city by night I'm wide awake
It never sleeps make no mistake
Whatever sets off the spark
A magic glow lights the dark
Then I'm intrigued by the sight
Of the city by night
Those crowded nightclubs
Those picturesque cafes
Are scenes no-one forgets
And I'm enchanted, music softly plays
By dancing silhouettes
* Repeat
The evening's full of surprise
It's magic opens my eyes
And I'm intrigued by the sight
Of the city by night
Yeh!

Clambake, gonna have a clambake
Clambake, gonna have a clambake
** Look for the brightest lights in town (clambake)
That's where you'll find me hanging round (clambake)
I've got this feeling to be free

* Clean Up Your Own Backyard
(B. Strange - S. Davis)
Back porch preacher preaching at me
Acting like he wrote the golden rules
Shaking his fist and screeching at me
Shouting from his soap box like a fool
Come Sunday morning he's lying in bed
His eyes all red from the wine he's had
Wishing he was dead when he oughta be
Heading for Sunday school
* Clean up your own backyard
Oh don't you hand me none of your lines
Clean up your own backyard
You tend to your business, I'll tend to mine
Drugstore cowboy criticising
Acting like he's better than you and me
Standing on the sidewalk supervising
Telling everybody how they ought to be
Come closing time 'most every night
He locks up tight and out go the lights
And he ducks out of sight and he cheats on his wife
With his employee
* Repeat
Armchair quarterback's always moanin'
Second guessing people all day long
Pushing, fooling and hanging on in
Always messing where they don't belong
When you get right down to the nitty-gritty
Isn't it a pity that in this big city
Not a one a'little bitty man'll admit
He could have been a little bit wrong
Clean up your own backyard
Oh don't you hand me, don't you hand me none of your lines
Clean up your own backyard
You tend to your business, I'll tend to mine
Clean up your own backyard
You tend to your business, I'll tend to mine
* Come Along
(Hess)
(Recorded for the film "Frankie And Johnny")
Come along, come along, there's a full moon shining bright
Come along, come along, we're gonna hit St. Louis tonight
Spend your money looking at the chorus line
Spend your money, win it on the number 9
Take your sweetheart even though she's never been
If she's worried tell her that you always win
Come along, come along, there's a full moon shining bright
Come along, come along, you're gonna win a fortune tonight
Hear the whistle, lady luck's about to go
Is she smiling, maybe yes or maybe no
Now's the time when nights are filled with sweet romance
Don't be bashful step on up and take a chance
Come along, come along, there's a full moon shining bright
Come along, come along, we're gonna hit St. Louis tonight
Come along, come along, we're gonna win a fortune tonight
* Come What May (You Are Mine)
(Franklyn Tableporter)
I am yours and you are mine, come what may
Love like ours remains divine, come what may
Even though we're miles apart
You're living in my lonely heart
At night the teardrops start and pour the long long day
* I keep your picture near me since you went away
I plant a kiss upon your lips each night and day
Bear in mind and you will find a heart that is true
And I'll be here with you come what may
All right!
* Repeat
And I'll be here with you come what may
And I'll be here with you come what may
Ah um bop a bop a um bop a bop a come what may

A little thing called confidence
There's no job too immense when you've got
Confidence

The speedy hare wound up nowhere
And slow poke took first place

* COTTON CANDY LAND
(Ruth Batchelor, Bob Roberts)
(As sung by Elvis in the 1963 movie "It Happened At The World's Fair")
Sandman's comin', yes he's comin'
To sprinkle you with sand
He'll say "one, two, three"
And you'll be, In cotton candy land
Sandman's comin', yes he's comin'
He'll take you, by the hand
And you'll ride upon, a big white swan
In cotton candy land
You and the swan will float upon
A cloud of pink ice cream
Where every star is a candy bar
And the moon is a marshmallow dream
Sandman's comin', yes he's comin'
Take his magic hand
Now goodnight...now sleep tight
In cotton candy land
In cotton candy land...
* Could I Fall In Love

(Recorded for the film "Double Trouble")
Could I fall in love for the very first time
That's what I ask myself when you're lips touch mine
Could I fall in love on a night like tonight
That's what I'd like to know when I hold you tight
Now that we're alone (Now that we're alone)
Just a kiss apart (Just a kiss apart)
I have the answer from the feeling in my heart
Could I fall in love and forever be true
My heart tells me I could if I fell for you
* Crawfish
(Weis / Weisman)
Crawfish (Crawfish)
Well I went to the bayou just last night
There was no moon but the stars were bright
Put a big long hook on a big long pole
And I pulled Mr Crawfish out of his hole
Crawfish (Crawfish)
* See I got him, see the size
Stripped and cleaned before your eyes
Sweet meat look, fresh and ready to cook
Crawfish (Crawfish)
Now take Mr Crawfish in your hand
He's gonna look good in your frying pan
If you fry him crisp or you boil him right
He'll be sweeter than sugar when you take a bite
Crawfish (Crawfish)

* Cross My Heart And Hope To Die
(Wayne / Weisman)
(Recorded for the film "Girl Happy")
I can explain about last night
Though things didn't look just right
Please believe me there was nothing wrong
I thought about you baby all night long
Cross my heart, I hope to die
Well I wouldn't tell you no lie, mmm
Talk about a piece of rotten luck
You do a friend a favour and you wind up stuck
She couldn't hold a candle to you, no siree
Very hard to handle like a Model T
Cross my heart, I hope to die
Well I wouldn't tell you no lie
Please believe me when I say
Wild horses couldn't drag me away
From you 'cos I don't have to look too hard
To see what I've got in my own back yard
So please forgive me and forget
Don't say my eye will lies alright ???????
I miss those kisses from your honeycomb
This humble bumble bee just wants to fly back home
Cross my heart, I hope to die
Well I wouldn't tell you no lie
I wouldn't tell you no lie
No no no no no no
I wouldn't tell you no lie
* Crying In The Chapel
(Artie Glenn)
You saw me crying in the chapel
The tears I shed were tears of joy
I know the meaning of contentment
Now I'm happy with the Lord
Just a plain and simple chapel
Where humble people go to pray
I pray the Lord that I'll grow stronger
As I live from day to day
I searched and I searched
But I couldn't find
No way on earth to gain peace of mind
Now I'm happy in the chapel
Where people are of one accord
Yes we gather in the chapel
Just to sing and praise the Lord
You'll search and you'll search
But you'll never find
No way on earth to gain peace of mind
Take your troubles to the chapel
Get down on your knees and pray
Then your burdens will be lighter
And you'll surely find the way
(And you'll surely find the way)

Girls in kimonos, shy little flowers
Smiling from beneath their parasols
Dainty little moonbeams, delicate as china
Gentle little oriental dolls
* Danny
(Wise / Weisman)
(Danny is my name, oh yes)
My name should be trouble
My name should be woe
For trouble and heartache is all that I know
But Danny, yes Danny is my name (Oh yes, oh yes)
My life has been empty
My heart has been torn
It must have been raining the night I was born
Oh Danny, oh Danny is my name. (Danny is my name oh yes)
I'm so afraid of tomorrow
So tired of today
They say that love is the answer
But love never came my way
Writing a letter to someone unknown
So if you should find it and if you're alone
Oh Danny, yes Danny, is my name (Oh yes)
Oh Danny, yes Danny, is my name
Ohohoho
* Danny Boy
(Frederic E. Weatherly)
Oh Danny boy, the pipes, the pipes are calling
From glen to glen and down the mountain side
The summer's gone and all the roses dying
'Tis you, 'tis you must go and I must bye
But come ye back when summer's in the meadow
Or when the valley's hushed and white with snow
And I'll be here in sunshine or in shadow
Oh Danny boy, oh Danny boy I love you so
But if he come and all the roses dying
And I am dead, as dead I well may be
He'll come here and find the place where I am lying
And kneel and say an ava there for me
And I shall feel, oh soft you tread above me
And then my grave will richer, sweeter be
For you will bend and tell me that you love me
And I shall rest in peace until you come to me
(Oh Danny boy I love you so)
* Dark Moon
(Ned Miller)
* Dark moon, way up high up in the sky
Oh, tell me why, oh tell me why
You've lost your splendour
Dark moon, what is the cause your life withdraws
Is it because, is it because I've lost my love

* Datin'
(Wise / Starr)
(Recorded for the film "Paradise, Hawaiian Style")
Datin' is a game that grown-ups play
Datin' means acting in a silly way
Datin' makes girls start wiggle walking
Datin' makes a guy start baby talking
Dizzy like children on a merry-go-round
Grown-ups are the biggest kids I've found
You'd think they belong in a baby carriage
They're doing things that lead to marriage
But don't you laugh at what thay do, oh no
'Cos some day you'll be datin' too
Datin' makes a guy comb his hair just right
His girl can mess it up when they kiss good-night
Datin' makes you quarrel and say you'll break up
And just because it's so much fun to make up
Children can't wait to grow up but then
They're datin and they're acting like kids again
You'd think they belong in a baby carriage
They're doing things that lead to marriage
But don't you laugh at what thay do, oh no
Some day you'll be datin' too

Talk like an angel, but I got wise

You fooled me with your kisses
You cheated and you schemed
Heaven knows how you lied to me
You're not the way you seemed

I thought that I was in heaven
But I was sure surprised
Heaven help me I didn't see
The devil in your eyes

The tromboner hit him while the poor cat sat

May believe Oh I see
Does he know who I am
And what once was between you and me
Do you know how I tried
Have you any idea how I tried
Not to keep you in sight
Do you know darling how much I cried
I remember you said
That you had to forget about me, and be free
Do you know who I am or have you forgot about me
Do you think there's a chance
You and I could start over again
Is there a prayer you still pray
Or has it just been too long and we're through
Well, what about you and him
Oh he's only a friend
Well I see there's still a chance for me
Well maybe some other time, in some other place
With our love in your heart and a smile on your face

Better start pickin' some woo
Moo, moo, move your little foot do!

* Don't Cry Daddy
(Davis)
Today I stumbled from my bed
With thunder crashing in my head
My pillow still wet from last night's tears
And as I think of giving up
A voice inside my coffeee cup
Kept crying out, ringing in my ears
* Don't cry daddy, daddy please don't cry
Daddy you still got me and little Tommy
Together we'll find a brand new mommy
Daddy, daddy please laugh again
Daddy ride us on your back again
Oh daddy please don't cry
Why are children always first
To feel the pain and hurt the worst
It's cruel, somehow it just don't seem right
'Cos every time I cry I know
It hurts my little children so
I wonder, will it be the same tonight
* Repeat
Oh daddy, please don't cry.
* Don't Forbid Me

Don't forbid me to hold you tight
Darling don't forbid me to hold you tight

Don't forbid me to talk sweet talk
Take me in your arms baby please
'cos it's cold, it's cold and your lips might freeze
* Don't Leave Me Now
(Aaron Schroeder - Ben Weisman)
Don't leave me now
Now that I need you
How blue and lonely I'd be
If you should say we're through
Don't break my heart
This heart that loves you
They'll just be nothing for me
If you should leave me now
What good is dreamin'
If I must dream all alone by myself
Without you darling
My arms would gather dust
Come to these arms
These arms that need you
Don't close your eyes to my plea
Don't leave me now

Some guys fall in love with one girl, I gotta fall for two

Doggin' me around, I'm the sorriest sight in town
* I got double trouble, I got double trouble
I got double trouble twice as much as anybody else oh yeh!

* Drums of the islands you're beating in my heart
You're with me no matter where I roam
If ever I wander if ever we're apart
I know that you will lead me home
If I should journey across the deep blue sea
I'll never forget these coral shores

And I'll return forever yours
I love each valley each grain of sand each hill
The flowers the music of the isles
These are the things I love and always will
Though I may roam ten thousand miles

* Early Mornin' Rain
(G. Lightfoot)
In the early mornin' rain
With a dollar in my hand
And an aching in my heart
And my -pockets full of sand
I'm a long ways from home
And I missed my loved one so
In the early mornin' rain
With no place to go
Out on runway number nine
Big 707 set to go
Well I'm out here on the grass
Where the pavement never grows
Where the liquor tasted good
And the women all were fast
There she goes my friend
She's rolling out at last
Hear the mighty engines roar (Hear the mighty engines roar)
See the silver wing on high (See the silver wing on high)
She's away and westward bound
For above the clouds she flies
Where the mornin' rain don't fall
And the sun always shines
She'll be flying over my home
In about three hours time
This ol' airport's got me down
It's no earthly good to me
'Cause I'm stuck here on the ground
Cold and drunk as I might be
Can't jump a jet plane (Can't jump a plane)
Like you can a freight train (Like a freight train)
So I best be on my way
In the early mornin' rain
So I best be on my way
In the early mornin' rain
So I best be on my way
In the early mornin' rain

Are coming to me out of the past
The letters you wrote I treasure them so
And I hear your voice wherever I go
Echoes of love, echoes of love
Are coming to me out of the past
In the rustle of a breeze; in the patter of the rain
In the rushing of the seas, all I hear is your name
Come back my love and once you are near

Echoes of love, echoes of love

Laughing with mockery (mockery)
The border line of doom I'm facing (I'm facing)
The edge of reality
* On the edge of reality she sits there tormenting me
The girl with the nameless face
On the edge of reality where she overpowers me

If she's not real then I'm condemned to (condemned to)

* EL TORO
(Giant,Baum,Kaye)
(As sung by Elvis in the 1963 movie "Fun In Acapulco")
There's a legend of a famous matador
Who went to meet El Toro
Though he fought as he had never done before
He could not beat, El Toro
*chorus
The bull El Toro, brought him defeat and pain
And to his sorrow, the matador knew shame
They said time would never heal the many scars
Brought by the great, El Toro
And the bitterness that burned deep in his heart
Caused him to hate, El Toro
repeat*
So one night, when no-one was in sight
The matador, went to settle the score
In the lonely fields, beneath the pale moonlight
He sought the bull...and they fought once more
When they found the matador and saw him dying
He'd never see tomorrow
Now they say that on the spot where he was lying
Still walks the proud El Toro
The bull El Toro, brought him defeat and pain
And to his sorrow, the matador knew shame....

* Faded Love
(Bob Willis - John Willis)
As I read the letters, oh that you wrote to me
Well it's you, it's you I'm thinking of
As I read the lines that to me were so sweet
I remember our faded love
* I miss you darlin' more and more every day
As heaven would miss the stars above
With every heartbeat, I still think of you
And remember our faded love
As I think of the past, all the pleasures that we had
As I watch the mating of the doves
It was in the springtime that you said goodbye
I remember our faded love
And I miss you darlin' more and more every day
As heaven would miss the stars above
With every heartbeat, I still think, think of you
And remember our faded love
I remember our faded love
I remember our faded love
* Fairytale
(Anita And Bonnie Pointer)
I'll pack up all my things and walk away
I don't want to hear another word you have to say
I've been waitin' for so long (so long)
I just found out there's something wrong (something is wrong)
And there's nothin' will get better if I stay
* There's no need to explain anymore
I tried my best to love you, now I'm walkin' out the door (out the door)
You used me, you deceived me
And you never seemed to need me
But I'll bet you won't forget me when I go (Oh no no no)
Seems I've been lost in a dream
Pretending that you care
(But now I've opened up my eyes)
And found it's all been just a great big fairytale
I've been lovin' you so long (I've loved so long)
Don't think I'd even know how to forget you
Yeh! the way that things have been
I think I'm better off alone
Than to be with you
(You don't love me it's plain to see)
* Repeat
(Seems like I've been lost in a dream)
Yeh! Pretending that you care
(Someday you'll open up your eyes)
And realize a good man is hard to find
* Fame And Fortune
(Fred Wise - Ben Weisman)
Fame and fortune how empty they can be
But when I hold you in my arms
That's heaven to me
Who cares for fame and fortune
They're only passing things
But the touch of your lips on mine
Makes me feel like a king
Your kind of love is a treasure I hold
It's so much greater than silver or gold
I know that I have nothing
If you should go away
But to know that you love me
Brings fame and fortune my way
But to know that you love me
Brings fame and fortune my way
* Farther Along
(Traditional - arranged by Elvis Presley)
(We'll understand it all by and by)
Tempted and tried will oft' me to wonder
Why it should be thus all the day long
While there are others living about us
Never more missed it, going alone
* Farther along we'll know more about it
Farther along we'll understand why
Cheer up my brother live in the sunshine
We'll understand it all by and by
When death has come and taken our loved ones
Leaving our homes so lonely and drear
Then do we wonder how others prosper
Living so wicked year after year
* Repeat
* Fever
(John Davenport - Sam Bobrick)
Never know how much I love you
Never know how much I care
When you put your arms around me
I get a fever that's so hard to bear
You give me fever ... when you kiss me
Fever when you hold me tight
Fever ... in the morning
Fever all through the night
Sun lights up the day time
Moon lights up the night
I light up when you call my name
And then you know I'm gonna treat you right
You give me fever when you kiss me
Fever when you hold me tight
Fever ... in the morning
Fever all through the night
Everybody's got the fever
That is something you well know
Fever isn't such a new thing
Fever started long ago
Romeo loved Juliet
Juliet she felt the same
When he put his arms around her
He said, Julie baby you're my flame
Thou giveth fever when we kisses
Fever with thy flaming youth
Fever I'm on fire
Fever you have burnt forsoothe
Captain Smith and Pocahontas
Had a very mad affair
When her daddy tried to kill him
She said daddy oh don't you dare
He gives me fever with his kisses
Fever when he holds me tight
Fever I'm his Mrs.
Daddy won't you treat him right
Now you listened to my story
Here's the point that I have made
Cats were born to give chicks fever
Be it Fahrenheit or centigrade
We give you fever when we kiss you
Fever if you live and learn
Fever till you sizzle
But what a lovely way to burn
Oh what a lovely way to burn
What a lovely way to burn
What a lovely way to burn
* Find Out What's Happening
(J. Crutchfield)
Baby you know me well
You know I mean what I say
Before I say farewell
I'll give you just another day
* You'd better find out what's happening
Find out what's happening before long, Oh yeh
If you don't find out what's happening
You're gonna find out that I've gone now, Oh yeh
Tell me what you're gonna do
You'd better make up your mind
It all depends on you
I'm leaving you behind
* Repeat
Baby you know it's true
We've been through thick and thin
But if you don't come through
You won't ever see me again
* Repeat
You'd better find, find, better find out
Better find out
Better find, better find out
Better find, better find out
If you don't find, you're gonna find out that I'm gone
* Finders Keepers, Losers Weepers
(D. Jones / O. Jones)
Finders, keepers, losers, weepers
I won't weep and I won't moan
'Cos I found you and your love so true
And I'm keeping you for my own
Heads I win or tails I lose
I bet my heart to win your love
The day you kissed me, good luck was with me
And I thank my lucky stars above
* I'm not the kind to play for fun
I only play for keeps and I'm keeping all the love I won
Finders, keepers, losers, weepers
The loser has to pay the score
He lost you and I found you
And I'm keeping you for ever more
* Repeat
He lost you and I found you
And I'm keeping you for ever more
Yeh he lost you and I found you
And I'm keeping you for ever more
He lost you and I found you
And I'm keeping you for ever more
* First In Line
(Schroeder - Weisman)
When they gave out eyes like diamonds
That would shame the stars that shine
My darlin' my darlin'
You were the first in line
When they gave out lips like honey
That hold a new thrill every time
My darlin' my darlin'
You were the first in line
* There may be others that know you longer
Who pledge their hearts to you
But there's no other could love you stronger
Any stronger than I do
Don't refuse me, say you'll choose me
I'm yours, oh please be mine
My darlin' say I'm your darlin'
The first, and the last in line
* Repeat
* FIVE SLEEPYHEADS
(Sid Tepper,Roy C. Bennett)
(As sung by Elvis for the 1968 movie "Speedway", but was cut from final
release.)
There were five sleepyheads
All tucked into their beds
While I sang a lullaby
One got dream dust in her eye
There were four sleepyheads
Playing possum with me
Mr. Sandman came by
And then there were three
Moonbeams play peek-a-boo
Three awake became two
And my song was almost done
When the land of Nod took one
Kissed the last one goodnight
Then I heard not a peep
There were five sleepyheads
Now they're all fast asleep
* Flaming Star
(Wayne / Edwards)
Every man has a flaming star
A flaming star over his shoulder
And when a man sees his flaming star
He knows his time, his time has come
* Flaming star don't shine on me, flaming star
Flaming star keep behind me, flaming star
There's a lot of livin' I gotta do
Give me time to make a few dreams come true
Flaming star (Flaming star)
When I ride I feel that flaming star
That flaming star over my shoulder
And so I ride in front of that flaming star
Never lookin' around, never lookin' around
* Repeat
One fine day I'll see that flaming star
That flaming star over my shoulder
And when I see that old flaming star
I'll know my time, my time has come
Flaming star don't shine on me, flaming star
Flaming star keep behind me, flaming star
There's a lot of livin' I gotta do
Give me time to make a few dreams come true
(Flaming star)
* Follow That Dream
(Fred Wise / Ben Weisman)
Follow that dream, I gotta follow that dream
Keep a-movin, move along, keep a moving
* I've got to follow that dream wherever that dream may lead
I've got to follow that dream to find the love I need
When your heart gets restless, time to move along
When your heart gets weary, time to sing a song
But when a dream is calling you,
There's just one thing that you can do
Well, you gotta follow that dream wherever that dream may lead
You gotta follow that dream to find the love you need
Keep a-movin, move along, keep a moving
Got to find me someone whose heart is free
Someone to look for my dream with me
And when I find her I may find out
Just what my dreams are all about
* Repeat
* Repeat
Keep a-movin, move along
Keep a-movin, move along
Keep a-movin, move along
* Fool
(Carl Sigman / James Last)
Fool, you didn't have to hurt her
Fool, you didn't have to lose her
Fool, you only had to love her
But now her love is gone
* Fool, you could have made her want you
Fool, you could have made her love you
Fool, you only had to love her
But now her love is gone
Gone now, the love and laughter
See yourself the morning after
Can't you see her eyes are misty
As she said good-bye (Good-bye)
Fool, you didn't have to hurt her
Fool, you didn't have to lose her
Fool, you only had to love her
But now your love is gone
Oh ...............
Oh ...............
Fool, you only had to love her
But now her love is gone
* Repeat
Fool, you didn't have to hurt her
Fool, you didn't have to lose her
Fool, you only had to love her
* FOOL, FOOL, FOOL
(Nugetre)
(Lyrics contributed by Rien Van Houten)
Fool, fool, fool
That I was to fall for you.
Well, fool, fool, fool
That I was to fall for you.
Well, I know what a fool I was
To think that you could love me, too.
Well, well, when I first met you, baby,
Well, I knew I couldn't win,
But I just kept right on trying,
'Cause trying is no sin.
What a fool, fool, fool,
That I was to fall for you.
Well, I know what a fool I was
To think that you could love me, too.
Well, when I first met you, baby,
Well, I knew I couldn't win,
But I just kept right on trying,
'Cause trying is no sin.
What a fool that I was to fall for you.
Well, I know what a fool I was
To think that you could love me too.
* Fools Fall In Love
(Leiber / Stoller)
Fools fall in love in a hurry
Fools give their hearts much too soon
Just put in two bars of stardust
Just hang out one silly moon
Oh! They've got their love torches burning
When they should be playing it cool
I used to laugh but now I'm the same
Take a look at a brand new fool
Fools fall in love just like schoolgirls
Blinded by rose coloured dreams
They build their castles on wishes
With only rainbows for beams
Oh! They're making plans for the future
When they should be right back in school
I used to laugh but now I'm the same
Take a look at a brand new fool
Alright!
They've got their love torches burning
When they should be playing it cool
I used to laugh but now I'm the same
Take a look at a brand new fool
Take a look at a brand new fool
* Fools Rush In
(J. Mercer - R. Bloom)
Fools rush in, where angels fear to tread
And so I come to you my love
My heart above my head
Though I see the danger there
If there's a chance for me
Then I don't care, oh-oh-oh-oh
* Fools rush in, where wise men never go
But wise men never fall in love
So how are they to know
When we met, I felt my life begin
So open up your heart and let
This fool rush in
(after solo instrumental)
And I don't care, oh-oh-oh-oh
* Repeat
** So open up your heart and let
This fool rush in
** Repeat
** Repeat
* (That's What You Get) For Lovin' Me
(Gordon Lightfoot)
* That's what you get for loving me
That's what you get for loving me
Everything we had is gone, you can see
That's what you get for loving me
Now don't you shed a tear for me
I ain't the love you thought I'd be
I've had a hundred just like you
But don't be blue I'll have a thousand before I'm through
* Repeat
Now there you go, you're cryin' again
You should have known how things would end
But then some day when your poor heart is on the mend
I just might pass this way again
* Repeat
* Repeat
* For Ol' Times Sake
(Tony Joe White)
Before you go walk out on me
Take a look around tell me what you see
Here I stand like an open book
Is there something here you might have overlooked
'Cos it would be a shame if you should leave
And find that freedom ain't what you thought it would be
The years we had were not all bad
In fact I know the good outweighed the bad
Now you say that you've grown tired
You want to be by yourself a while
It would be a shame if you should go
And find that freedom was a long time ago
I know that you can't stand the chains that bind you
They just keep on drivin' us apart
You could go where I could never find you
But could you go far enough to get away from your heart
So one more time, for ol' times sake
Come and lay your head upon my chest
Please don't throw this moment away
We can forget the bad and take the best
If you don't have nothing left to say
Let me hold you one more time for ol' times sake
If you don't have nothing left to say
Let me hold you one more time for ol' times sake
* For The Good Times
(Kris Kristofferson)
Don't look so sad, I know it's over
But life goes on and this old world will keep on turning
Let's just be glad we had some time to spend together
There's no need to watch the bridges that we're burning
* Lay your head upon my pillow
Hold you warm and tender body close to mine
Hear the whisper of the raindrops
Blowing soft against the window
Make believe you love me one more time
For the good times
I'll get along, you'll find another
And I'll be here if you should find you ever need me
Don't say a word about tomorrow or for ever
There'll be time enough for sadness when you leave me
* Repeat
For the good times
* For The Heart
(Dennis Linde)
* Had a dream about you baby, had a dream about me and you
Had a dream and woke up crying
Well I can roll but I just can't rock
And the time's going by, tick-tock
For the heart, I just can't love no-one but you
Well I'm high and dry and lonely, I'm as lonely as can be
And I stare out of my window
Well I can play but I just can't win
And the weather's looking dim
For the heart I just can't love no-one but you
** For the heart (I can't love no-one but you)
For the heart (I can't love no-one but you)
For the heart I just can't love no-one but you
** Repeat
* Repeat
** Repeat
** Repeat
Well
** Repeat
Yes,
** Repeat
* For The Millionth And The Last Time
(Bennett / Tepper)
For the millionth and the last time
Darling let me hold you tight
One more kiss and then I promise
I will say my last goodnight
Though your lips are so inviting
And I know I'll wanna stay
Give me one more kiss to dream on
And I'll be on my way
* It seems a million or so kisses ago
We said goodnight at your door
I didn't get far 'cos here we are
And I'm still begging for more
** Whilst the millionth and the last time
Slowly disappears from sight
For the millionth and the last time
Let me kiss you good-night
* Repeat
** Repeat
Let me kiss you good-night
Let me kiss you good-night
* Forget Me Never
(Wise / Weisman)
(Recorded for the film "Wild In The Country")
If I should go, forget me never
Please say that you'll remember me
I pray the dreams we share together
Will shine on in your memory
Each time a star falls out of heaven
It leaves the sky a deeper blue
So if we part, forget me never
And don't forget my love for you
And don't forget my love for you

Girls on the beaches commit a sin
They don't show yards and yards of skin
Preceding message to you has been
Through the courtesy of the Fort Lauderdale Chamber Of Commerce
Maybe your yen is for tennis courts
Maybe romancing is in your thoughts
Enjoy all outdoor and indoor sports

Any male in Fort Lauderdale who is not pursuing a cute female
Will automatically land in jail
That's the law in Fort Lauderdale
Pretty girls eighteen to twenty-three
If their technique ain't what it should be

* FOUNTAIN OF LOVE
(Bill Grant / Jeff Lewis)
(Lyrics contributed by Rien Van Houten)
* One thought of you, my heart begins churning
I feel it turn to a fountain of love
My lips and eyes, they ache to be near you
To hold you here in my fountain of love
Never be blue should your world start sinking
Just come and drink from my fountain of love
We'll build a new world off on a high mountain
We'll live on our fountain of love
* Repeat
We'll live on our fountain of love
We'll live on our fountain of love

* Frankie and Johnny
(Gottlieb / Karger / Weisman)
(Recorded for the film "Frankie And Johnny")
Frankie and me we were lovers
Oh Lordy how we could love
Swore we'd be true to each other
Just as true as stars above
I was her man, she caught me doing her wrong.
My luck in poker was fading
When a new gal caught my eye
I gambled, I tried to change my luck
With a chick named Nellie Bly
I was Frankie's man but I was doing her wrong.
Yeh! Frankie came looking to find me
Yes, she wasn't looking for fun
For in her sweet loving hand
She was totin' a 44 gun
To shoot her man if he was doin' her wrong
Well Frankie walked into the bar room
And right there in front of her eyes
There was her loving Johnny
Making love to that Nellie Bly
I was her man, she caught me doing her wrong.
Frankie, I beg, Please don't shoot me
Well they'll put you away in a cell
You know they'll put your where the cold wind blows
From the hottest corner in hell
I'm your man, I know I done you wrong.
Easy on the roll, real easy
Easy on the roll, real slow
Roll me over real gently
'Cause my wound hurts me so
Well I was her man
Well I done her wrong
Well Frankie told Johnny
Well this is the end of my song
I was her man, well I done her wrong
Well , hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
Done her wrong

(Miller)
From a jack to a king of lonliness to a wedding ring
I've played a ace and I won the queen
I walked away with your heart
From a jack to a king
With no regrets I stacked, I stacked the cards, I stacked the cards last night
And lady luck played her hand just right
You made me king of your heart
Oh for just a little while I thought that I might lose the game
Oh but just in time I saw that twinkle in your eyes
From a jack to a king of lonliness to a wedding, wedding, wedding ring
I played an ace and I won the queen
You made me king of your heart
La la la la etc.
For just a little while I thought that I might lose the game

(As sung by Elvis in the 1963 movie "Fun In Acapulco")
Acapulco, sleeping in the bay
Acapulco, wake up and greet the day
Time to tell the guitars and sleepy-eyed stars
To be on their way
It's such a beautiful morning, for a holiday
Hey now come on, you old sleepy head
See the sky turning red, and you're still in bed
It's fun in Acapulco
Acapulco, look here comes the sun
Acapulco, it's a day for fun
I can't wait till I meet your sweet senoritas
Kiss everyone
This is no time for siesta, this is time for fun
I can't wait till I meet your sweet senoritas
Kiss everyone
This is no time for siesta, this is time for fun
This is no time for siesta, this is time for fun

Well hello there, my it's been a long long time
How am I doin', oh well I guess I'm doin' fine
It's been so long now and it seems that
It was only yesterday
Mmm, ain't it funny how time slips away
How's your new love, I hope that he's doin' fine
Heard you told him, yes baby
That you'd love him till the end of time
Why you know that's the same thing that you told me
Well it seems like just the other day
Mmm, ain't it funny how time slips away
Gotta go now, guess I'll see you hanging round
Don't know when though, oh
Never know when I'll be back in town
But I remember what I told you
That in time your gonna pay
Well ain't it surprisin' how time slips away
Yeah, ain't it surprisin' how time slips away

* Gentle On My Mind
(J. Hartford)
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 (gentle on my mind)
It's not clinging to the rocks and ivy
Planted on their columns mellowed ?????
Or something that somebody said
Because they thought we'd fit together walking (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 closed lands
And the junk yards and the highways come between us (between us)
And some other woman's cryin' to her mother
'Cos she turned and I was gone
I still might run in silence
Til' the ???? might stain my face
And the summer sun might burn me 'till I'm crying ????????????
But not to where I cannot see you
Walking in the back roads
By the rivers flowing gently on my mind
I get my cup of soup back from a grip in a truck
And called into some train yard
I'm barely runnin' cold ????
And 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
* Gently
(Wizell - Lisbona)
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
* Repeat
Gently the hour is near
When true loves have to part
Gently we'll meet again
One more kiss, sweetheart
* Repeat
Our true love was born
* Girls! Girls! Girls!

* Girl Of Mine
(L. Reed / B. Mason)
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
* Repeat
* Give Me The Right
(Wise - Blagman)
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
* Repeat
* GO EAST, YOUNG MAN
(Giant,Baum,Kaye)
(As sung by Elvis in the 1965 movie "Harum Scarum"
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
*chorus
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
repeat *
Go eat and drink and feast, go east young man
* Goin' Home
(Byers)
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 cayotes 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
* GOLDEN COINS
(Giant,Baum,Kaye)
(As sung by Elvis in the 1965 movie "Harum Scarum")
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 pleasures 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..
* Gonna Get Back Home Somehow
(Pomus - Shuman)
Hear that old train whistle howling in the night
If that flyer's southbound
Things will be alright
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, but 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
* Repeat
* Good Luck Charm
(Aaron Schroeder - Wally Gold)
Uh-huh huh, Uh-huh huh, Uh-huh huh, Oh yeh!
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
* Repeat
Uh-huh huh, Uh-huh huh, Uh-huh huh, Oh yeh!
Uh-huh huh, Uh-huh huh, 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
* Repeat
Uh-huh huh, Uh-huh huh, Uh-huh huh, Oh yeh!
Uh-huh huh, Uh-huh huh, Tonight!
* Good Rockin' Tonight
(Roy Brown)
Well, I heard the news there's good rockin' tonight
Well, I heard the news
There's good rockin' tonight
I'm gonna hold my baby as tight as I can
Tonight she'll know I'm a mighty, mighty man
I heard the news, there's good rockin' tonight
I say, well, meet me in a hurry behind the barn
Don't you be afraid, darling, I'll do you no harm
I want you to bring along my rockin' shoes
'Cause tonight I'm going to rock away all my blues
I heard the news, there's good rockin' tonight
Well, we're gonna rock

* Good Time Charlie's Got The Blues
(Danny O'Keefe)
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
* Repeat
Good time Charlie's got the blues
* Repeat
Good time Charlie's got the blues
Da da da da etc.
* Got A Lot Of Livin' To Do
(Aaron Schroeder - Ben Weisman)
*Oh yes I've got a lot of loving to do
A whole lot of loving to do
Come on baby, to make your point takes two
Oh yes I've got a lot of loving to do
A whole lot of loving to do
And I don't want to have to do it without you
The moon is big and bright in the milky way tonight
But the way you act you would never 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
*repeat
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 know what you've been missing
Cuddle up a little closer and be my little honey bee
*repeat
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
*repeat

* Green, Green Grass Of Home
(Claude Puttman Jnr)
The old home town looks the same, as I step down from the train
And there to meet me is my mama and my 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 come to meet me, arms reachin' smiling sweetly
Oh 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 that old oak tree that I used to play on
Yeh! 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
* Repeat
(Spoken)
Then I awake and look around me. Four grey walls surround me.
And I realize 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 come to see me
In the shade of an old oak tree
As they lay me 'neath the green, green grass of home
* GUADALAJARA
(Spanish words and lyrics by Pepe Guizar)
(As sung by Elvis in the 1963 movie "Fun In Acapulco")
Guadalajara, Guadalajara...
Guadalajara, Guadalajara
Tienes el alma de provinciana
Hueles a limpio a rosa temprana
Aver de jara fresca del rio
Son mil palomos to case rio
Guadalajara, Guadalajara
Sabes a pura tierra mojada
(Ay!! ja ja, ay, ja ja,aj! ja, ja..Ay!! ja ja)
Aj!!! colomitos lejanos....aj!!!..ojitos de agua hermanos
*chorus
Ay colomitos i nol vidables, i nol vidables como las tardes
En que la lluvia, des de la loma, ir nos hacia, hasta Zapopam
AY!! misermano..Ay-ja-ja...Mexicano...
repeat*
Guadalajara, Guadalajara...Guadalajara..Guadalajara
Guadalajara....GUADALAJARA!!!!...
* Guitar Man
(Hubbard)
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.
* HAPPY ENDING
(Ben Weisman,Sid Wayne)
(As sung by Elvis in the 1963 movie "It Happened At The World's Fair")
*chorus
Happy ending, happy ending
Give me a story with a, happy ending
When boy meets girl and then
They never part again
But live forever happily, like you and me
Hard luck stories gets me so upset
Like Romeo, and Juliet
I'm not smart enough to figure why
Some folks enjoy, a real good cryyyyy...
repeat*
Never thought that I would stand a chance
That you'd give me, a second glance
Only thing I think I can play a part
And give a guy, a happy heart
repeat*
When boy meets girl and then, they never part again
but live forever happily, like you and me
Like you and me, like you and me
....like you and me...
* Harbor Lights
(Jimmy Kennedy / Hugh Williams)
I saw the harbor lights
They only told me we were parting
Those same old harbor lights
That once brought you to me
I watched the harbor lights
How could I help it
Tears were starting
Good-bye to golden nights
Beside the silvery seas
I long to hold you dear
And kiss you just once more
But you were on the ship
And I was on the shore
Now I know lonely nights
For all the while my heart keeps praying
That someday harbor lights
Will bring you back to me
* Hard Headed Woman
(Claude Demetrius)
Well a hard headed woman, a soft hearted man
Been the cause of trouble ever since the world began
Oh yeah, ever since the world began
A hard headed woman been a thorn in the side of man
Now Adam told to Eve
Listen here to me
Don't you let me catch you messin' round that apple tree
Oh yeah, ever since the world began
A hard headed woman been a thorn in the side of man
Oh yeah, ever since the world began
A hard headed woman been a thorn in the side of man
Now Samson told Delilah loud and clear
Keep your cotton pickin' fingers out my curly hair
Oh yeah, ever since the world began
A hard headed woman been a thorn in the side of man
I heard about a king who was doin' swell
'Till he started playing with that evil Jezebel
Oh yeah, ever since the world began
A hard headed woman been a thorn in the side of man
I got a woman, a head like a rock
If she ever went away I'd cry around the clock
Oh yeah, ever since the world began
A hard headed woman been a thorn in the side of man
A hard headed woman been a thorn in the side of man
* Hard Knocks
(J. Byers)
(Recorded for the film "Roustabout")
Some kids born with a silver spoon
I guess that I was born a little too soon
* Hard knocks, all I ever knew was hard knocks
And I'm telling you, I said you'd better beware
'Cos I've had my share (hard knocks)
Some kids born as rich as a king
But I was born without a doggone thing
* Repeat
** I walked a million miles I bet
Tired and hungry and cold and wet
I've heard that lonesome whistle blow
From New York City down to Mexico
Some kids born fancy free
Nobody never gave nothing to me but
* Repeat
** Repeat
* Repeat
I said you'd better beware
'Cos I've had my share (hard knocks)
I said you'd better beware
'Cos I've had my share of hard knocks
* Hard Luck
(Weisman / Wayne)
(Recorded for the film "Frankie And Johnny")
Oh I'm really feeling mighty low
No, no, no, I got no place that I can go
So I've got some blues to sing
And oh, so much remembering, woe......
Black cats, keep away from me
Take my advice, go shinning up a tree
I got hard luck, the hardest kind a luck you'll find
I ain't lyin', I've got the bluest kinda blues
Drivin' me right outa my mind
She's gone, said toodle-loo
Kissed her good-bye and my-my, my money too
I've got hard luck, the hardest kinda luck you've seen
I mean, the way I'm runnin' lately
My lucky number is thirteen
Where do I belong, everything I do is wrong, all wrong
Wrong as can be
Who's stacking all the decks, lady luck has got the hex on me
I'm on her knee da-da-da-da
Shove off, oh I'm warning you
This thing I caught, you know could be catchin' too
I've got hard luck, the hardest kinda luck there can be
Yes sirree, I guess hard luck always chooses
Natural born losers like me
Oh ahhh!
* HAREM HOLIDAY
(Peter Andreoli,Vince Poncia Jr.)
(As sung by Elvis in the 1965 movie "Harum Scarum")
Gonna travel, gonna travel wild and free
I'm gonna pack my bags because this great big world is calling me
Every pretty girl's gonna know I'm around
They're gonna know I'm in town on a harem holiday
Twenty women, twenty women by my side
I'm gonna kiss them all, because I've gotta keep 'em satisfied
Gonna have the best time money can buy
I'm gonna be flying high on a harem holiday
* chorus
If Romeo had a harem holiday
You can bet that Juliet would have never been his girl forever
Gonna go back, gonna catch that midnight plane
Twenty dancing girls are waiting just to call my name
Gonna have a ball, I ain't gonna waste no time
I'm gonna make 'em all mine on a harem holiday
repeat *
Gonna travel, gonna travel wild and free
I'm gonna pack my bags because this great big world is calling me
Every pretty girl's gonna know I'm around
They're gonna know I'm in town on a harem holiday
* HAVE A HAPPY
(Weisman,Kaye,Fuller)
(As sung by Elvis in the 1970 movie "Change Of Habit".)
Now once it was told to me
We're born with a magic key
It opens the door to miracles of Spring
It takes you to wishing wells
To ice cream and carousels
And yet this magic key won't unlock a thing
chorus*
Unless you have a happy, ya have a happy
Mm, have a happy, warm smiling face
I start believin', in believin'
Let your address, be Sunshine Place
There's love and there's joy I'm told
Much more than your heart can hold
It's there like the ring you would grab
On a merry-go-round
The world isn't half as grey
With friends on a rainy day
But people keep away, when you wear a frown
You've got to have a happy, ya have a happy
Have a happy, warm smiling face
Mmm start believin', in believin'
Let your address, be Sunshine Place
Let your address, be Sunshine Place
Let your address, be Sunshine Place
* Have I Told You Lately That I Love You?
(Scott Wiseman)
Have I told you lately that I love you?
Could I tell you once again somehow?
Have I told with all my heart and soul how I adore you?
Well darling I'm telling you now
Have I told you lately when I'm sleeping
Every dream I dream is you somehow?
Have I told you why the nights are long
When you're not with me?
Well darling I'm telling you now
My heart would break in two if I should lose you
I'm no good without you anyhow
And have I told you lately that I love you
Well darling I'm telling you now
My heart would break in two if I should lose you
I'm no good without you anyhow
And have I told you lately that I love you
Well darling I'm telling you now
* Hawaiian Sunset
(Tepper / Bennett)
Hawaiian sunset, peeping from the sea
Smiles and says Aloha to his sweetheart Hawaii
The drowsy islands, slumber one by one
Close their sleepy eyes say goodnight to the sun
* Then Hawaii like millions of times before
Blossoms in her lovers arms once more
To soon the sunrise will wake her from her sleep
So until tomorrow, sleep Hawaii sleep
* Repeat
So until tomorrow, sleep Hawaii sleep
* HAWAIIAN WEDDING SONG
(King / Hoffman / Manning)
(Lyrics contributed by Rien Van Houten)
This is the moment I've waited for
I can hear my heart singing
Soon bells will be ringing
This is the moment
Of sweet aloha
I will love you longer than forever
Promise me that you will leave me never
Here and now dear
All my love I vow dear
Promise me that you will leave me never
I will love you longer than forever
Now that we are one
Clouds won't hide the sun
Blue skies of Hawaii smile on this our wedding day
I do
Love you
With all my heart
* Heart Of Rome
(Stephens / Blaikley / Howard)
In a little while you're leavin'
Starting on the journey home
Soon I'll be alone, the one who loves you
La la la la la, somewhere in the heart of Rome
* I'll make a wish in every fountain
Say a prayer that you'll return
Minutes I'll be counting
May the fire of love still burn
I'll keep your picture by my pillow
And pretend I'm not alone
Make believe that you are with me
La la la la la, in the heart of Rome
Suddenly the tears are falling
As we hear the whistle blow
Hold me very close before you leave me
La la la la la, somewhere in the heart of Rome
* Repeat

* Heartbreak Hotel
(Axton / Durden/ Presley)
Well since my baby left me
Well I found a new place to dwell
Well it's down at the end of lonely street
At Heartbreak Hotel well I'll be
I'll be just so lonely baby,
Well I'll be so lonely,
I'll be so lonely I could die.
* And although it's always crowded,
You still can find some room.
For broken hearted lovers
To cry there in the gloom.
** They'll be just so lonely baby,
They'll be just so lonely,
They'll be so lonely they could die.
Now, the Bell hop's tears keep flowin',
And the desk clerk's dressed in black.
Well they been so long on lonely street
They'll never, they'll never look back.
** Repeat
Well now, if your baby leaves you,
And you got a tale to tell.
Just take a walk down lonely street
To Heartbreak Hotel.
Where you'll be just so lonely baby,
Where you will be lonely,
You'll be so lonely you could die.
* Repeat
** Repeat
* He Is My Everything
(Dallas Frazier)
I long to be His possession
Oh, He is my everything
I remember my days of darkness
Without sunshine or sight to lead the way
Then a whisper of His voice softly called me
To the arms of my Maker to stay
* He is my reason for living
Oh He is the King of all kings
I long to be His possession
Oh, He is my everything
After the lightning and thunder
After the last bell has rung
I want to bow down before Him
And hear Him say: Well done
* Repeat
I long to be His possession
Oh, He is my everything
* He Knows Just What I Need (Alt. Jesus Knows What I Need)
(Mosie Lister)
My Jesus knows when I am Lonely
He knows each pain, He sees each care
He understands each lonely heartache
He understands because He cares
* My Jesus knows just what I need
Oh yes! He knows just what I need
He satisfies and every need supplies
Yes, He knows just what I need
* Repeat
* He Touched Me
(William J. Gaither)
Shackled by a heavy burden
'Neath a load of guilt and shame
Then the hand of Jesus touched me
And now I am no longer the same
* For He touched me, oh, he touched me
And oh the joy that floods my soul
Something happened and now I know
He touched me and made me whole
Oh since I met this blessed Saviour
Since He cleansed and made me whole
Oh I will never cease, never cease to praise him
I'll shout it while eternity rolls
* Repeat
* He'll Have To Go
(J. Allison / A. Allison)
Put your sweet lips a little closer to the phone
Just pretend that we're together all alone
Tell the man to turn the juke box way down low
You can tell your friend there with you, he'll have to go
You can't say the words I want to hear
When your with another man
If you love me, answer yes or no
Darling I will understand
Put your sweet lips a little closer to the phone
Just pretend that we're together all alone
Tell the man to turn the juke box way down low
You can tell your friend there with you, he'll have to go
{Whisper to me, tell me do you love me true
Ommited {Or is he holding you the way I do
verse {Tho' love is blind, make up your mind I've got to know
{Should I hang up or will you tell him, he'll have to go
You can't say the words I want to hear
When your with another man
If you love me, answer yes or no
Darling I will understand
Just put your sweet lips a little closer to the phone
Just pretend that we're together all alone
Tell the man to turn the juke box way down low
And you can tell your friend there with you, he'll have to go
Yes you can tell your friend there with you, he'll have to go
* He's Only A Prayer Away (I Asked The Lord)
(Lange / Duncan)
I thank the Lord for everything
When things are going my way
He said to me I will comfort thee
And drive your cares away
He promised me I will walk thee
And drive your cares away
I did not ask for riches
He gave me wealth untold
The moon, the stars, the sun the sky
(Are there for you) to behold
I thank the lord for everything
And I count my blessings each day
He came to me when I needed Him
I only have to pray
And He'll come to you if you ask Him to
He's only a prayer away
* HELP ME
(by LARRY GATUN)
(Lyrics contributed by Gerhard Brauner)
Lord, Help me walk
another mile, just one more mile;
I'm tired of walkin' all alone.
Lord, Help me smile
another smile, just one more smile;
I know I just can't make it on my own.
I never thought I needed help before;
I thought that I could do things by myself.
Now I know I just can't take it any more.
