Imagination is funny
It makes a cloudy day sunny It makes a bee think of honey Just like I think of you Imagination is crazy Your whole perspective gets hazy It starts you asking a daisy what to do What to do Have you ever felt a gentle touch And then a kiss, then and then You find it's only your imagination again Oh well Imagination is silly You go around willy-nilly For example I go around wanting you Yet I can't imagine that you want me too |

Do you know what it means to miss New Orleans
And miss her each night and day I know I'm not wrong because the feeling's Getting stronger the longer I stay away Miss the moss-covered vines, tall sugar pines Where mockingbirds used to sing I'd love to see that old lazy Mississippi Running in the spring Moonlight on the bayous Creole tunes fill the air I dream about magnolias in June And I'm wishin' I was there Do you know what it means to miss New Orleans When that's where you left your heart And there's one thing more, I miss the one I care for More than I miss New Orleans |

Basin Street is the street
Where all the white and the black folk meet Down in New Orleans, the land of dreams You never know how much it seems Not just how much it really means I'm glad to be, yes-sir-ree, in the land of reverie I can't lose my Basin Street Blues |

Oh please, don't talk about me when I'm gone
Although our friendship ceases from now on Hey Carmen, if you can't say anything real nice It's better not to talk at all, that's my advice We are parting You go your way I'll go mine It's best that we do Here's a little kiss I hope that this brings lots of love to you Makes no difference how I carry on 'Cause baby I know you'd better not talk about me when I'm gone |

Moonlight and magnolias, starlight in your hair All the world a dream come true Did it really happen, was I really there Was I really there with you We lived our little drama, we kissed in a field of white And stars fell on Alabama that night I can't forget the glamour, your eyes held a tender light And stars fell on Alabama last nightI never planned in my imagination, a situation so heavenly A fairy land that no one else could enter And in the center, just you and me, dear My heart beat like a hammer, my arms wound around you tight And stars fell on Alabama last night"Alright, let's take it on down from Muscle Shoals through Decatur" "Mmmm, Birmingham, ooh Montgomery" "Right up over Spanish Fort into Mobile, my hometown" "Mister T..."I never planned in my imagination, a situation so heavenly A fairy land that no one else could enter And in the center, just you and me, dear My heart beat like a hammer, my arms wound around you tight Ah, stars fell on Alabama last night"One more time boys..." Yes, we lived our little drama We kissed on the dunes so white And stars fell on Alabama Last night |

I could while away the hours
Conferrin with the flowers Consultin with the rain And my head I'd be scratchin While my thoughts were busy hatchin If I only had a brain I'd unravel any riddle For any individd-el In trouble or in pain With the thoughts I'd be thinkin I could be another Lincoln If I only had a brain Oh, I could tell you why The ocean's near the shore I could think of things I never thunk before And then I'd sit and think some more I would not be just a nothin My head all full of stuffin My heart all full of pain Perhaps I deserve you And be even worthy erve you If I only had If I only had a brain |

Do nothin' till you hear from me
Pay no attention to what's said Why one should tear the seam of anyone's dream It's over my head Do nothin' till you hear from me At least consider our romance If you should take the word of others you heard Baby, I haven't a chance True I've been seen With someone new That doesn't mean I've been untrue While we're apart The words in my heart Reveal how I feel about you Some kiss may cloud my memory And other arms may hold a thrill But please do nothin' till you hear it from me Baby, you never will |
