PRETTY WOMAN

Hey pretty woman walkin' down the street
You're the prettiest thing that i ever hope to meet
Pretty woman, yeah pretty woman
There ain't nothing in the world
Like a pretty pretty girl, pretty woman

Hey pretty woman, are you headin' my way?
Please pretty woman, say yea-yea-yea
Pretty woman, yeah pretty woman
There ain't nothing in the world
Like a pretty pretty girl, pretty woman
Pretty woman

You're a pretty woman in every way
Lord, you're fine, well hey-hey-hey
You need a lot of lovin', that's plain to see
Hey pretty woman, how about me?

Come on baby, take me by the hand
I'm gonna love you like no one can
Pretty woman, you're something to see
Pretty woman, you're OK by me
Hey, pretty woman

Woman, pretty woman
Pretty woman, hey pretty woman
Hey pretty woman, you're something to see
Yeah pretty woman, you're OK by me...


BLUE BAYOU

I feel so bad I've got a worried mind
I'm so lonesome all the time
Since I left my baby behind on Blue Bayou

Saving nickels, saving dimes, working 'till the sun don't shine
Looking forward to happier times on Blue Bayou
I'm going back some day come what may to Blue Bayou
Where you sleep all day and the catfish play on Blue Bayou

All those fishing boats with their sales afloat If I could only see
That familiar sunrise through sleepy eyes, how happy I'd be

Go to see my baby again
And to be with some of my friends
Maybe I'd be happy then on Blue Bayou
Saving nickels, saving dimes working 'till the sun don't shine
Looking forward to happier times on Blue Bayou

I'm going back some day, gonna stay on Blue Bayou
Where the folks are fine and the world is mine on Blue Bayou
Oh, some sweet day gonna take away this hurtin' inside
I'll never be blue, my dreams come true on Blue Bayou


BLUES IN MY MIND

I ought to hate you for these blues in my mind
What makes me love you, am I losing my mind?
I wonder where I'm gonna wind up
I just can't make my crazy mind up

Too many kisses brought me too many tears
Tears that I'll carry with me all through the years
I'm just the broken hearted kind
Worrying blues in my mind

I'm going crazy with these blues in my mind
How can you just keep on confusing my mind?
You've got a jealous air about you
Maybe I'm better off without you

Still I can't make my heart believe that it's true
Trouble with me is having trouble with you
I'm just the broken hearted kind
Worrying blues in my mind
Worrying blues in my mind


DREAM BABY (HOW LONG MUST I DREAM)

Sweet dream baby
Sweet dream baby
Sweet dream baby
How long must I dream

Dream baby got me dreamin' sweet dreams the whole day through
Dream baby got me dreamin' sweet dreams night time too
I love you and I'm dreaming of you but that won't do
Dream baby make me stop my dreamin', you can make my dreams come true

Sweet (sha-da-da-da) dream (sha-da-da-da) baby (sha-da-da-da) (sha-da-da-da)
Sweet (sha-da-da-da) dream (sha-da-da-da) baby (sha-da-da-da) (sha-da-da-da)
Sweet (sha-da-da-da) dream (sha-da-da-da) baby (sha-da-da-da) (sha-da-da-da)
How (sha-da-da-da) long (sha-da-da-da) must I dream

Dream baby got me dreamin' sweet dreams the whole day through (dream baby)
Dream baby got me dreamin' sweet dreams night time too (dream baby)
I love you and I'm dreaming of you but that won't do (dream baby)
Dream baby make me stop my dreamin', you can make my dreams come true

Aww, sweet dream baby (dream baby ah-huh-huh)
Yea-eh-ah, sweet dream baby (dream baby ah-huh-huh)
Sweet dream baby (dream baby ah-huh-huh)
How long must I dream

Sweet dream baby (dream baby ah-huh-huh)
Sweet dream baby (dream baby ah-huh-huh)
Sweet dream baby


THE CROWD

I go out with the crowd, I play the game
Pretending out loud but it don’t seem the same
For the heart of the crowd is gone from sight
My part of the crowd is not with me tonight

I remember the prom, every dance with you
All the crazy things that we used to do
Sometimes we’d wait for a chance
And then we’d steal away
From the crowd and the dance to our hideaway

Aww, but you’re gone and it’s not the same old game
I fall apart each time I hear your name
Guess I’ll go along with the crowd, I’ll make believe
That you’ll come back to me, run back to me
Hurry back to the crow-ow-ow-owd a-and me-e-e-e-e.


DISTANT DRUMS

I hear the sound of distant drums
Far away, Far away
And if they call for me to come
Then I must go and you must stay

So Mary marry me, let's not wait
Let's share all the time we can
Before it's too late
And love me now
For now is all the time there may be
And if you love me Mary, Mary marry me

I hear the sound of bugles blow
Far away, far away
And if they call then I must go
Who knows where or who can say?

So Mary marry me, let's not wait
For those distant drums
Might change our wedding day
And love me now
For now is all the time there may be
And if you love me Mary, Mary marry me
Yes if you love me Mary, Mary marry me


MEAN WOMAN BLUES

Hmm, well I got a woman mean as she can be
Well I got a woman mean as she can be
Some-a-times I think she's almost mean as me

She gotta ruby lips, she got shapely hips, yeah
Boy she makes ole Roy-oy flip
I got a woman mean as she can be
Some-a-times I think she's almost mean as me

Well I ain't braggin', it's understood
Everything I do, well I sure do it good
Yeah I got a woman mean as she can be
Some-a-times I think she's almost mean as me
Well!

She gotta ruby lips, she got shapely hips, yeah
Boy she makes ole Roy-oy flip
I got a woman mean as she can be
Some-a-times I think she's almost mean as me, easy now

Ah-huh-huh-huh ....

Now let's go one time

Well I got a woman (sha la la la)
Yeah I got a woman (sha la la la)
Yeah I got a woman (sha la la la)
Well I got a woman (sha la la la)
Some-a-times I think she's almost mean as me


NO ONE WILL EVER KNOW

No one will ever know my heart is breaking
Although a million teardrops start to fall
I’ll try myself to sleep and wake up smiling
I miss you but no one will ever know

I’ll tell them we grew tired of each other
And realized our dreams could never be

I’ll even make believe I never loved you
Then no one will ever know the truth but me

I’ll tell them we grew tired of each other
And realized our dreams could never be

I’ll even make believe I never loved you
Then no one will ever know the truth but me


BLUE ANGEL

Oh, Blue Angel Don't you cry Just because he said goodbye
Oh, uh, uh aah No, don't cry
Oh Blue Angel Have no fear I'll brush away each lonely teardrop
Yeah, yeah, yeah Oh, oh, ooo, ooo, ooo, ooo, ooo, ooo

Well love's precious flame Just burned in vain
But you're not to blame He thought love was a game
Oh, such a shame But don't you cry Don't sigh
I'll tell you why I'll never say goodbye Blue Angel!

We'll have love so fine Magic moments divine
If you'll just say yoy're mine I'll love you 'tll the end of time
Don't you worry your pretty head I'll never let you down
I'll always be around Blue Angel! Blue Angel!


BYE BYE LOVE

Bye bye love Bye bye happiness
Hello loneliness I think I'm gonna cry
Bye bye my love goodbye
There goes my baby with someone new
She sure looks happy I sure am blue

She was my baby 'tlll he stepped in
Goodbye to romance that might have been
Bye bye love Bye bye sweet caress
Hello emptiness I feel like I could die
Bye bye my love goodbye

I'm free from romance I'm through with love
I'm through with counting the stars above
And here's the reason that I'm so free
My loving baby is through with me

Bye bye love Bye bye happiness
Hello loneliness I think I'm gonna cry
Bye bye my love goodbye
Bye bye my love goodbye


PRETTY PAPER

(The pretty paper, pretty ribbons of blue)

Pretty paper, pretty ribbons of blue
Wrap your presents to your darling from you
Pretty pencils to write I love you
Pretty paper, pretty ribbons of blue

Crowded street, busy feet, hustle by him
Downtown shoppers, Christmas is nigh
There he sits all alone on the sidewalk
Hoping that you won't pass him by

Should you stop? Better not, much too busy
You're in a hurry, my how time does fly
In the distance the ringing of laughter
And in the midst of the laughter he cries

Pretty paper, pretty ribbons of blue
Wrap your presents to your darling from you
Pretty pencils to write I love you
Pretty paper, pretty ribbons of blue


WINGS OF GLORY

I could ride on wings of glory
To a mountain in the sky
With fantasies and dreams of love
Too beautiful to die

And step into the door
That time will never close
With promises of all desire
And love no other knows
no other knows

When am I gonna stop reaching for a rainbow?
You know I always wanted to fly
Could I reach the top, even with the moonglow
Blinding both of my eyes?

Some resist the urge
While tempted all the more
All can feel their weakness
Should they walk in the door

As we ride on wings of glory
Together we sill fly
To live our dreams and fantasies
To music in the sky
in the sky

When am I gonna stop reaching for a rainbow?
You know I always wanted to fly
Could I reach the top, even with the moonglow
Blinding both of my eyes?


UPTOWN

Uptown, in penhouse number three
Uptown, there lives a doll just made for me
She's the finest thing that you've ever seen, oh ho ha

Uptown, I see her most every day
Uptown, but she never ever looks my way
I'm just a bellhop, you see I can't stop
And tell her what I wanna say

That one of these days, I'm gonna have money
She'll wanna be my ever-lovin' honey
It won't be long, just wait and see
I'll have a big car, fine clothes
And then I'll be
Uptown, in penthouse number three
Uptown, just my baby and me

Yeah, one of these days, I'm gonna have money
She'll wanna be my ever-lovin' honey
It won't be long, just wait and see
I'll have a big car, fine clothes
And then I'll be
Uptown, in penthouse number three
Uptown, just my baby and me


THE GREAT PRETENDER

Oh-oh, yes I'm the great pretender
Pretending that I'm doing well
My need is such I pretend too much
I'm lonely but no one can tell

Oh-oh, yes I'm the great pretender
Adrift in a world of my own
I've played the game but to my real shame
You've left me to grieve all alone

Too real is this feeling of make-believe
Too real when I feel what my heart can't conceal

Yes I'm the great pretender
Just laughin' and gay like a clown
I seem to be what I'm not, you see
I'm wearing my heart like a crown
Pretending that you're still around

Too real is this feeling of make-believe
Too real when I feel what my heart can't conceal

Yes I'm the great pretender
Just laughin' and gay like a clown
I seem to be what I'm not, you see
I'm wearing my heart like a crown
Pretending that you're still around
