The summer wind, came blowin' in, from across the sea
It lingered there, to touch your hair, and walk with me All summer long, we sang a song, and then we strolled that golden sand Two sweethearts, and the summer wind Like painted kites, those days and nights, they went flyin' by The world was new, beneath a blue, umbrella sky Then softer than, a piper man, one day it called to you I lost you, I lost you to the summer wind The autumn wind, and the winter winds, they have come and gone And still the days, those lonely days, they go on and on And guess who sighs his lullabies, through nights that never end My fickle friend, the summer wind The summer wind warm summer wind Mmm the summer wind |

I'm gonna love you, like nobody's loved you
Come rain or come shine High as a mountain, deep as a river Come rain or come shine I guess when you met me It was just one of those things But don't you ever bet me 'Cause I'm gonna be true if you let me You're gonna love me, like nobody's loved me Come rain or come shine We'll be happy together, unhappy together Now won't that be just fine The days may be cloudy or sunny We're in or out of the money But I'm with you always I'm with you rain or shine |

You make me feel so young
You make me feel like spring has sprung Every time I see you grin I'm such a happy individual The moment that you speak I want to go and play hide-and-seek I want to go and bounce the moon Just like a toy balloon You and I, are just like a couple of tots Running across the meadow Picking up lots of forget-me-nots You make me feel so young You make me feel there are songs to be sung Bells to be rung, and a wonderful fling to be flung And even when I'm old and gray I'm gonna feel the way I do today 'Cause you make me feel so young |

The torch I carry is handsome
It's worth its heartache in ransom and when that twilight steals I know how the lady in the harbor feels When I want rain, I get sunny weather I'm just as blue as the sky Since love has gone... can't pull myself together Guess I'll hang my tears out to dry Friend ask me out... I tell them I'm busy I've must get a new alibi I stay around at home, and ask myself: who is he? Guess I'll hang my tears out to dry Dry little tear drops, my little tear drops hanging on a stream of dreams Fly little memories, my little memories Remind me of our crazy schemes Somebody says, just forget about her So I gave that treatment a try Strangely enough, I got along without her Then one day she passed me right by - oh well I guess I'll hang my tears out to dry |

I've got the world on a string
I'm sitting on a rainbow Got the string around my finger What a world, what a life - I'm in love I've got a song that I sing I can make the rain go Any time I move my finger Lucky me, can't you see - I'm in love Life's a beautiful thing As long as I hold the string I'd be a silly so-and-so If I should ever let her go |

Those fingers in my hair
That sly come hither stare That strips my conscience bare It's witchcraft. And I've got no defense for it, The heat is too intense for it. What good would common sense for it do? 'Cause it's witchcraft, Wicked witchcraft, And although I know it's strictly taboo When you arouse the need in me, My heart says yes indeed in me, Proceed with what your leading me to It's such an ancient pitch, But one I wouldn't switch, 'Cause there's no nicer witch than you **Instrumental break** 'Cause it's witchcraft, That crazy witchcraft, And although I know it's strictly taboo When you arouse the need in me, My heart says yes indeed in me, Proceed with what your leading me to... It's such an ancient pitch, But one that I would never switch, 'Cause there's no nicer witch than you |

I've got you under my skin
I've got you deep in the heart of me So deep in my heart so that you're really a part of me I've got you under my skin I tried so not to give in I said to myself this affair, it never will go so well But why should I try to resist when baby, I know so well That I've got you under my skin I'd sacrifice anything come what might For the sake of having you near, In spite of a warning voice that comes in the night It repeats, repeats in my ear Don't you know little fool, you never can win Use your mentality, wake up to reality But each time I do, just the thought of you Makes me stop before I begin, 'Cause I've got you under my skin I would sacrifice anything come what might For the sake of having you near, In spite of a warning voice that comes in the night It repeats, how it yells in my ear Don't you know little fool, you never can win Why not use your mentality, step up, wake up to reality But each time I do, just the thought of you Makes me stop just before I begin, 'Cause I've got you under my skin Yes, I've got you under my skin |

For once in my life I have someone who needs me
Someone I've needed so long For once, unafraid, I can go where life leads me And somehow I know I'll be strong For once I can touch what my heart used to dream of Long before I knew Someone warm like you Would make my dreams come true For once in my life I won't let sorrow hurt me Not like it hurt me before For once, I have something I know won't desert me I'm not alone anymore For once, I can say, this is mine, you can't take it As long as I know I have love, I can make it For once in my life, I have someone who needs me |

Out of the tree of life I just picked me a plum
You came along and everything's startin' to hum Still, it's a real good bet, the best is yet to come Best is yet to come and babe, won't that be fine? You think you've seen the sun, but you ain't seen it shine a-Wait till the warm-up's underway Wait till our lips have met And wait till you see that sunshine day You ain't seen nothin' yet The best is yet to come and babe, won't it be fine? Best is yet to come, come the day you're mine Come the day you're mine I'm gonna teach you to fly We've only tasted the wine We're gonna drain the cup dry Wait till your charms are right for these arms to surround You think you've flown before, but baby, you ain't left the ground a-Wait till you're locked in my embrace Wait till I draw you near a-Wait till you see that sunshine place Ain't nothin' like it here The best is yet to come and babe, won't it be fine? The best is yet to come, come the day you're mine Come the day you're mine And you're gonna be mine |

Pennies in a stream
Falling leaves a sycamore Moonlight in Vermont Gentle finger waves Ski trails down a mountain side Snowlight in Vermont Telegraph cables, how they sing down the highway As they travel each bend in the road And when people meet, in this romantic setting They're so hypnotized be the lovely... Evening summer breeze Sweet warblings of the meadowlark Moonlight in Vermont |

They call you lady luck
But there is room for doubt At times you have a very un-lady-like way Of running out Your on this date with me The pickin's have been lush And yet before the evening is over You might give me the brush You might forget your manners You might refuse to stay And so the best that I can do is pray Luck be a lady tonight Luck be a lady tonight Luck if you've been a lady to begin with Luck be a lady tonight Luck let a gentleman see Just how nice a dame you can be I know the way you've treated other guys you've been with Luck be a lady with me A lady never leaves her escort It isn't fair, it isn't nice A lady doesn't wander all over the room And blow on some other guys dice Lets keep this party polite Never get out of my sight Stick with me baby, I'm the guy that you came in with Luck be a lady tonight A lady never flirts with strangers She'd have a heart, she'd be nice A lady doesn't wander all over the room And blow on some other guys dice Lets keep this party polite Never get out of my sight Stick with me baby, I'm the guy that you came in with Luck be a lady tonight |

A foggy day,
in London town, it had me low, and it had me down I viewed the morning, with much alarm, the British Museum, had lost its charm How long I wondered, could this thing last, but the age of miracles, it hadn't past And suddenly, I saw you standing right there And in foggy London town, the sun was shining everywhere |

When you're awake, the things you think
Come from the dream you dream Thought has wings, and lots of things Are seldom what they seem Sometimes you think you've lived before All that you live to day Things you do come back to you As though they knew the way Oh the tricks your mind can play It seems we stood and talked like this, before We looked at each other in the same way then But I can't remember where or when The clothes you're wearing are the close, you wore The smile you are smiling you were smiling then But I can't remember where or when Some things that happened for the first time Seem to be happening again And so it seems that we have met before And that we laughed before, also loved before But who knows where or when |

Oh, the shark has pretty teeth dear
And he shows 'em, pearly white Just a jack knife has Macheath dear And he keeps it way out of sight When that shark bites with his teeth, dear Scarlet billows begin to spread Fancy gloves though has Macheath dear So there's never, never a trace of red On the sidewalk, one Sunday morning Lies a body, oozin' life Someone's sneaking 'round the corner Could that someone be Mack the Knife From a tugboat, on the river going slow A cement bag is dropping on down You know that cement is for the weight dear You can make a large bet Mackie's back in town My man Louis Miller, he split the scene babe After drawing out all the bread from his stash Now Macheath spends like a sailor Do you suppose our boy, he's done something rash Old Satchmo, Louis Armstrong, Bobby Darrin Did this song nice, Lady Ella too They all sang it, with so much feeling That Old Blue Eyes, he ain't gonna add nothing new But with this big band, jumping behind me Swinging hard, Jack, I now I can't lose When I tell you, all about Mack the Knife babe It's an offer, you can never refuse We got Patrick Williams, Bill Miller playing that piano And this great big band, bringing up the rear All the band cats, in this band now They make the greatest sounds, you're ever gonna hear Oh Sookie Taudry, Jenny Diver, Polly Peachum, Old Miss Lulu Brown Hey the line forms, on the right dear Now that Macheath's back in town You'd better lock your doors, and call the law Because Macheath's back in town |

What is America to me
A name, a map, or a flag I see A certain word, democracy What is America to me The house I live in A plot of earth, a street The grocer and the butcher Or the people that I meet The children in the playground The faces that I see All races and religions That's America to me The place I work in The worker by my side The little town the city Where my people lived and died The howdy and the handshake The air a feeling free And the right to speak your mind out That's America to me The things I see about me The big things and the small That little corner newsstand Or the house a mile tall The wedding and the churchyard The laughter and the tears And the dream that's been a growing For more than two hundred years The town I live in The street, the house, the room The pavement of the city Or the garden all in bloom The church the school the clubhouse The millions lights I see But especially the people - Yes especially the people That's America to me |

And now the end is near
And so I face the final curtain My friend, I'll say it clear I'll state my case of which I'm certain I've lived a life that's full I've travelled each and every highway and more, much more than this I did it my way Regrets I've had a few But then again too few to mention I did what I had to do And saw it through without exemption I planned each chartered course Each careful step along the by-way And more, much more than this I did it my way Yes, there were times I'm sure you knew When I bit off more than I could chew But through it all when there was doubt I ate it up and spit it out I faced it all And I stood tall And did it my way I've loved, I've laughed, and cried I've had my fill, my share of losing And now, as tears subside I find it all so amusing To think I did all that And may I say, not in a shy way "Oh, no, no not me I did it my way" For what is a man, what has he got If not himself, then he has naught To say the things he truly feels, and not the words of one who kneels The record shows, I took the blows and did it my way Yes, it was my way |
