There is a House in New Orieans
They call it rising sun And it's been the ruin of many poor girls And me, oh God, I'm one. If I had only listened of what my mama said I'd be at home today But bein' so young and foolish my Lord Let a gambler lead me astray Now my mother is a tailer She sews those new blue jeans And my sweetheart is a drunkard Lord Drinks down in New Orieans Now the only thing drunken man needs is a suitcase and a trunk And only time he's satisfied Lord is when he's on the drunk Somebody go get my baby sister Tell her to do never to do what I have done But shun that house in New Orieans They call it Rising Sun Well I'm goin' back to New Orieans My race is almost run Yes,I'm goin' back to spend my life Beneath, the rising sun. |

Baubles bangles hear how they ring ching-a-lingle Baubles bangles bright shiny heads sparkles spangles My heart will sing sing-a-linge Wearing baubles bangles and beads I glitter and gleam so make somebody dream So that some day he may buy me A ring a-ling a-ling a-ling a-ling A-ling a-ling a-ling a-lingle I've heard that's where it leads Wearing baubles bangles and beads |

(1941) Paul Francis Webster, Duke Ellington
My baby never treats me sweet and gentle the way he should; I got it bad and that ain't good! My poor heart is sentimental not made of wood I got it bad and that ain't good! But when the weekend's over and Monday rolls aroun' I end up like I start out just cryin' my heart out He don't love me like I love him nobody could I got it bad and that ain't good! Like a lonely weeping willow lost in the wood I got it bad and that ain't good! And the things I tell my pillow no woman should I got it bad and that ain't good! Tho folks with good intentions tell me to save my tears I'm glad I'm mad about him I can't live without him Lord above me make him love me the way he should I got it bad and that ain't good! Original lyric The poets say that all who love are blind But I'm in love and I know what time it is! The Good Book says "Go seek and ye shall find" Well, I have sought and my what a climb it is! My life is just like the weather It changes with the hours When he's near I'm fair and warmer When he's gone I'm cloudy with showers; in emotion, like the ocean it's either sink or swim When a woman loves a man like I love him. Never treats me sweet and gentle the way he should; I got it bad and that ain't good! My poor heart is sentimental not made of wood I got it bad and that ain't good! But when the weekend's over and Monday rolls aroun' I end up like I start out just cryin' my heart out He don't love me like I love him nobody could I got it bad and that ain't good! Like alonely weeping willow lost in the wood I got it bad and that ain't good! And the things I tell my pillow no woman should I got it bad and that ain't good! Tho folks with good intentions tell me to save my tears I'm glad I'm mad about him I can't live without him Lord above me make him love me the way he should I got it bad and that ain't good! |

Coots, Lewis
For all we know We may never meet again Before we go Make this moment live again We won't say goodbye Until the last minute I'll hold out my hand And my heart will be in it For all we know This might only be a dream We come and we go Like the ripples, like the ripples in the stream So baby, love me, love me tonight Tomorrow was made for some Oh, but tomorrow But tomorrow may never, never come For all we know Yes, tomorrow may never, never come For all we know |

Carl Nutter, Renee Borek, King Guion
Since you've gone I spend each lonely night, Dealing out the cards from left to right, And the King of Hearts is there to remind me That I'm all alone playing solitaire. Love was just another game for two, I see now that's all it meant to you, And my heart got lost somewhere in the shuffle, So I'm all alone playing solitaire In each romance there's an element of chance, A gamble to win or to lose, You play to win, then you find you're playing in a game with no rules, Just made for fools. Now, the Joker has a laugh on me, 'Cause I played my hand so carelessly, And until you wanna share that old feeling, I'll be dealing time away with solitaire. And until you want to share that old feeling, I'll be dealing time away, dealing time away with solitaire. |

Love me love me love me Say you do Let me fly away With you For my love is like The wind And wild is the wind Give me more Than one caress Satisfy this Hungriness Let the wind Blow through your heart For wild is the wind You... Touch me... I hear the sound Of mandolins You... Kiss me... With your kiss My life begins You혪re spring to me All things To me Don혪t you know you혪re Life itself Like a leaf clings To a tree Oh my darling, Cling to me For we혪re creatures Of the wind And wild is the wind So wild is the wind Wild is the wind Wild is the wind |

Willow weep for me, willow weep for me,
Bend your branches green along the stream that runs to sea, Listen to my plea, listen willow weep for me, Gone my lover's dream, lovely summer dream, Gone and left me here to weep my tears into the stream, Sad as I can be - Hear me willow and weep for me. Whisper to the wind to say that love has sinned To leave my heart aching and making this moan, Murmur to the night to hide her starry light, So none will find me sighing and crying all alone, Weeping willow tree, weep in sympathy, Bend your branches down along the ground and cover me, When the shadows fall, bend oh willow and weep for me. To leave my heart aching and making this moan, So none will find me sighing and crying all alone, Weeping willow tree, weep in sympathy, Bend your branches down along the ground and cover me, When the shadows fall, bend oh willow, Bend oh willow and weep for me. |
