I know I stand in lying Until you think you have the time To spend an evening with me And if we go someplace to dance I know that there's a chance You won't be leaving with me Then afterwards we drop into a quiet little place And have a drink or two And then I go and spoil it all By saying something stupid Like I love you I can see it in your eyes You still despise the same old lines You heard the night before And though it's just a line to you For me it's true And never seemed so right before I practice every day to find some clever Lines to say To make the meaning come true But then I think I'll wait until the evening Gets late And I'm alone with you The time is right Your perfume fills my head The stars get red And oh the night's so blue And then I go and spoil it all By saying something stupid Like I love you The time is right Your perfume fills my head The stars get red And oh the night's so blue And then I go and spoil it all By saying something stupid Like I love you I love you

Do nothing till you hear from me
Pay no attention to what's said Why one should tear the seam of anyone's dream Is over my head Do nothing till you hear from me At least consider our romance If you should take the word of others you've heard I haven't a chance True, I've been seen with someone new But does that mean that I'm 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 nothing till you hear it from me And you never will! |

When I was seventeen, it was a very good year
It was a very good year for small town girls And soft summer nights We'd hide from the lights On the village green When I was seventeen When I was twenty-one, it was a very good year It was a very good year for city girls Who lived up the stairs With all that perfumed hair And it came undone When I was twenty-one When I was thirty-five, it was a very good year It was a very good year for blue-blooded girls Of independent means We'd ride in limousines Their chauffeurs would drive When I was thirty-five But now the days are short, I'm in the autumn of the years And I think of my life as vintage wine From fine old kegs From the brim to the dregs It poured sweet and clear It was a very good year |

A buzzard took a monkey for a ride in the air,
The monkey thought that everything was on the square. The buzzard tried to throw the monkey off his back, The monkey grabbed his neck and said, "Now listen, Jack..." Straighten up and fly right, Straighten up and stay right Straighten up and fly right Cool down, papa, don't you blow your top. Ain't no use in divin', What's the use in jivin'? Straighten up and fly right Cool down, papa, don't you blow your top. The buzzard told the monkey, You're chokin' me. Release your hold and I'll set you free. The monkey looked the buzzard right dead in the eye and said, Your story's so touching, but it sounds jes' like a lie. Straighten up and fly right Straighten up and stay right Straighten up and fly right Cool down, papa, don't you blow your top. Straighten up and fly right Straighten up and stay right Straighten up and fly right Cool down, papa, don't you blow your top. Ain't no use in divin' Ain't no good in jivin' Straighten up and fly right Cool down, papa, don't you blow - your - top. Fly right |

I knew a man
Bojangles And he'd dance for you In worn out shoes With silver hair a ragged shirt And baggy pants He would do the old soft shoe He would jump so high Jump so high Then he lightly touch down told me of the time he worked with Minstrel shows travelling Throughout the south He spoke with tears of fifteen years How his How his dog and he They would travel about But his dog up and died He up and died after twenty years he still grieved He said I dance now At every chance in the Honky Tonks For my drinks and tips But most the time I spend Behind these country bars You see on I drinks a bit Then he shook his head Oh lord when he shook his head I could swear I heard somebody say please please Mister Bojangles Call him Mister Bojangles Mister Bojangles come back dance and dance and dance please dance Mr Bojangles Mr Bojangles Mister Bojangles come back dance and dance and dance please dance Come back and dance again Mr Bojangles |

It's quarter to three, there's no one in the place
Except you and me So set 'em' up Joe, I got a little story I think you should know We're drinking my friend, to the end Of a brief episode Make it one for my baby And one more for the road I know the routine, put another nickel In the machine I feel kind of bad, can't you make the music Easy and sad I could tell you a lot, but it's not In a gentleman's code Make it one for my baby And one more for the road You'd never know it, but buddy I'm a kind of poet And I've got a lot of things I'd like to say And if I'm gloomy, please listen to me Till it's talked away Well that's how it goes, and Joe I know your gettin' Anxious to close Thanks for the cheer I hope you didn't mind My bending your ear But this torch that I found, It's gotta be drowned Or it's gonna explode Make it one for my baby And one more for the road |

How lucky can one guy be?
I kissed her and she kissed me Like the fella once said, "Ain't that a kick in the head?" The room was completely black, I hugged her and she hugged back Like the sailor said, quote, "Ain't that a hole in the boat?" My head keeps spinnin', I go to sleep and keep grinnin' If this is just the beginnin', my life is gonna be bee-yoo-tee-ful I've sunshine enough to spread, it's just like the fella said Tell me quick, ain't love a kick in the head? Like the fella once said, "Ain't that a kick in the head?" Like the sailor said, quote, "Ain't that a hole in the boat?" My head keeps spinnin', I go to sleep and keep grinnin' If this is just the beginnin', my life is gonna be bee-yoo-tee-ful She's tellin' me we'll be wed, she's picked out a king-size bed I couldn't feel any better or I'd be sick Tell me quick oh, ain't love a kick? Tell me quick ain't love a kick in the head? |

They can't take that away from me No! They can't take that away from me NOT WITHOUT A LAWYER, ANYWAY We may never, never meet again on this bumpy road to love Still I'll always, always keep The mem'ry of The way you hold your knife The way we dance till three The way you've changed my life Oh, no!

Someone said as we shook hands
She was just Miss Jones to me Then I said Miss Jones You're a girl who understands I'm a man who must be free. And all at once I lost my breath And all at once was scared to death And all at once I own the earth and sky Now I met Miss Jones And well keep on meeting till we die Miss Jones and I And all at once I lost my breath And all at once was scared to death And all at once I own the earth and sky Now I met Miss Jones And well keep on meeting till we die Miss Jones and I Miss Jones and I Miss Jones and I |

Johnny and Robbie
What you talking like that for you're from Stoke I dunno but I can't stop here pally Like the wallpaper sticks to the wall Like the seashore clings to the sea Like you'll never get rid of your shadow You'll never get rid of me Let all the others fight and fuss Whatever happens we've got us We're closer than pages that stick in a book We're closer than ripples that flow in a brook Wherever you find him you'll find me just look Closer than a miser or the bloodhounds to Liza Me We're closer than smog to all of L A We're closer than Ricky to confessing he's gay Not a soul can bust this team in two We stick together like glue And when it's sleeping time That's when we rise We start to swing Our clocks don't chime What a surprise They ring a ding ding Happy New Year And now to repeat what I said at the start They'll need a large crowbar to break us apart We're alone but far from blue Before we get finished we'll make the town roar We'll hit a few late spots and then a few more We'll start up at Stringy's and maybe show Life is gonna be we wow whee For my shadow and me Before we get finished we'll make the town roar We'll hit all the late spots and then a few more We'll start up at Stringy's and maybe show Life is gonna be we wow whee For my shadow and me |
