Blues Magoos

It's been a happy day
Try not to spoil it now
Please don't get hung up that way

Oh, he's not the boy for you
And I think you know it's true
Kiss him and don't start to cry

'Cause you're having a pipe dream, an ordinary pipe dream
Now you see him flashing right before your eyes
You're having a sweet dream, a lifelong sweet dream
I'm the one who loves you, can't you see it's me?

Pipe dream
Pipe dream
Come back to reality

Now, in your mind there's always me
That's the way it's gonna be
Kiss him and tell him goodbye

I say you won't have to dream tonight
Tomorrow you might be clear and bright
I think the pipe's going out

'Cause you're having a pipe dream, an ordinary pipe dream
Now you see him flashing right before your eyes
You're having a sweet dream, a lifelong sweet dream
I'm the one who loves you, can't you see it's me?

Pipe dream
Pipe dream
Come back to reality
Hey, coming back to reality

Gilbert-Thielheim

I see her face so young and fair
I hear her voice but she's not there
Memories like these still linger on
I can't believe that she's gone

Baby, I want you
Baby, I want you
Baby, I need you to love me
Baby, love me

I wonder where she is today
If we'd meet what would I say
I can't tell it's been so long
I still go on, yeah, singing my song

About how I want you
Baby, I want you
Baby, I need you to love me
Baby, love me

Esposito-Gilbert

The eyes of a man
That can see what you can
Are the eyes that can see
Far beyond you and me
So we'll wait and we'll wait
Until we are like he.

He sees the beauty in a flower
That you or I'd pass by
Tormented is his mind
But we've ignored the cries.

What is the world
To a man with no hands?
And what is the world
To a man with no ears?
And what is the world
To a man with no tongue?
To a man with all three
But who knows less than he.

He feels the world going round
Right beneath his feet
Sees the wealth of man
Struggling in his heat.

<instrumental>

The frost of Autumn kills the flower
Held in his hand
Pity to lose him now
Summer is the man.

Gilbert-Scala

At evening time when work is through
You change yourself to someone new
You try to run to get away
From the pressures of your day.

So you run
Fast as you can
Swear
You're a different man
Tell them
Albert Common is dead.

Your job is big, your pay is small
Your income tax takes it all
You'll get your watch in one more year
Will anyone remember you were ever here?

So you run
As fast as you can
Swear
That you're a different man
Tell them
Albert common is dead.

Morrison

Like to tell you 'bout my baby, you know she comes around
Just 'bout five feet four, a-from her head to the ground
You know she comes around here, just about midnight
She make me feel so good, Lord, she make me feel all right.

And her name is G-L-O-R-I
G-L-O-R-I-A (Gloria)
G-L-O-R-I-A (Gloria)
I'm gonna shout it all night (Gloria)
I'm gonna shout it every day (Gloria)
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah.

She comes around here, just about midnight
She make me feel so good, Lord, I wanna say she make me feel all right
Comes a-walkin' down my street, oh she comes up to my house
She knock upon my door and then she comes to my room
Yeah and she make me feel all right.

G-L-O-R-I-A (Gloria)
G-L-O-R-I-A (Gloria)
I'm gonna shout it all night (Gloria)
I'm gonna shout it every day (Gloria)
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Looks so good (Gloria)
All right, feel so good (Gloria)
All right, yeah now.

Merriweather

Oh Lord, Lordy Lord
It hurts me so bad for us to part
Someday baby, I ain't gonna worry my life no more.

You're on my mind every place I go
How much I love you, baby you'll never know
Someday babe, I ain't gonna worry my life no more.

So many mornings since you've been gone
I'm on my knees prayin' to you baby, please come back home
Someday baby, I ain't gonna worry my life no more, oh yeah.

I want you brown eyes, I want you till my days end
But I want you as a lover, you're no good to me as my friend
Someday baby, I won't worry my life no more, yeah yeah.

That's my story, this is all I got to say to you
Oh goodbye baby, I don't care what you do
Someday baby, I ain't gonna worry no, my life no more.

Did you ever see a girl grow up before your eyes
Her girlish smile has turned to woman's sighs
And denim has turned to chiffon and lace
To adorn the beauty of a woman's face

That time goes by so very fast
(Time goes by so very fast)
And you know your younger years won't last
(Younger years, they won't last)
So take these childhood dreams as they come
Oh, and learn to live each day one by one

Oh, she could have been like any girl who lived next door
Or the one you played with a thousand times before
Well, you'd see her growing up before your eyes
And as time goes past you'll soon realize

That time goes by so very fast
(Time goes by so very fast)
And you know your younger years won't last
(Younger years, they won't last)
So take these childhood dreams as they come
Oh, and learn to live each day one by one

Oh, and learn to live each day one by one

Sometimes I think about
old folks back home
That 12 mile road that I used to roam
Sometimes I think about
that girl named Willie Jean
Wondering if she made it down
to New Orleans

Whenever I think about
the folks back there
You know I wonder
if they still have that old county fair

Sometimes I think about
that girl named Willie Jean
Wondering if she made it down
to New Orleans

We used to watch river boats
From a grassy bank
Drinking hot water
from a railroad filling tank

Sometimes I think about
that girl named Willie Jean
Wondering if she made it down
to New Orleans

The folks back there say
Why you come to home
Now here I am
Sitting here on this county farm

Sometimes I think about
that girl named Willie Jean
Wondering if she made it down
to New Orleans

Oh, Willie Jean, Willie Jean
Would you come back to me
Here I'm sitting here on this county farm
Willie Jean, Willie Jean
Would you come back
Come on, help me now
