Speedy Gonzales
It was a moonlit night in old Mexico. I walked alone between
some old
adobe haciendas. Suddenly, I heard the plaintive cry of a young
Mexican girl.
You better come home, Speedy Gonzales
Away from tannery
row
Stop alla your a-drinkin'
With that floozie named Flo
Come on
home to your adobe
And slap some mud on the wall
The roof is leakin'
like a strainer
There's loadsa roaches in the hall
Speedy Gonzales, why don'tcha come home?
Speedy Gonzales,
how come ya leave me all alone?
"Hey, Rosita-I hafta go shopping downtown
for my
mudder-she needs some tortillas and chili peppers."
Your doggy's gonna have a puppy
And we're runnin' outta
coke
No enchiladas in the icebox
And the television's broke
I saw
some lipstick on your sweatshirt
I smelled some perfume in your ear
Well
if you're gonna keep on messin'
Don't bring your business back a-here
Mmm, Speedy Gonzales, why don'tcha come home?
Speedy
Gonzales, how come ya leave me all alone?
"Hey, Rosita-come queek-down at the cantina
they giving
green stamps with tequila!!"
Moody River
Moody river more deadly
Than the vainest knife
Moody
river your muddy water
Took my baby's life
Last saturday evening
I came
to the old oak tree
It stands beside the river
Where you were to meet me
On the ground your glove I found
With a note addressed to me
It read dear
love I've done you wrong
Now I must set you free
No longer can I live
With this hurt and this sin
I just couldn't tell you
That guy was just a
friend
Moody river more deadly
Than the vainest knife
Moody river your
muddy water
Took my baby's life
I looked into the muddy water
And what
could I see
I saw alonely lonely face just
Lookin' back at me
Tears in
his eyes
And a prayer on his lips
And the glove of his lost love
At his
finger tips
Moody river more deadly
Than the vainest knife
Moody river
your muddy water
Took my baby's life
I'll See You In My Dreams
Ill se you in my dreams
And I'll hold you in my dreams
Someone took you right out of my arms
Still I feel the thrill of your charms
Lips that once were mine
Tender eyes that shine
They will light my way
tonight
Ill se you in my dreams.
Oh, someone took you right out of my arms
Still I feel the thrill of your charms
Lips that once were mine
Tender
eyes that shine
They will light my way tonight
Ill se you in my dreams.
April Love
April love is for the very young
Every star's a wishing
star that shines for you
April love is all the seven wonders
One little
kiss can tell you this is true
Sometimes an April day will suddenly bring showers
Rain to
grow the flowers for her first bouquet
But April love can slip right through
your fingers
So if she's the one don't let her run away
Sometimes an April day will suddenly bring showers
Rain to
grow the flowers for her first bouquet
But April love can slip right through
your fingers
So if she's the one don't let her run away
Love Letters In The Sand
On a day like today
We passed the time away
Writing
love letters in the sand
How you laughed when I cried
Each time I saw the tide
Take our love letters from the sand
You made a vow that you would ever be
true
But somehow that vow meant nothing to you
Now my broken heart aches
With every wave that breaks
Over love letters in the sand
Now my broken heart aches
With every wave that breaks
Over love letters in the sand
Anastasia
Anastasia
Tell me who you are
Are you someone
From
another star
Anastasia
Are you what you seem
Do your sad eyes
Remember a dream
Why do you tremble
And why do you sigh
Could you be
lonely
As lonely as I
Will you remember
When summer has flown
Another world, a
world
That is yours alone
Anastasia
Smile away the past
Anastasia
Spring is
here at last
Beautiful stranger
Step down from your star
I only know
I love you so
Whoever you are
Anastasia, Anastasia
Beautiful stranger
Step down from your star
I only know
I love you so
Whoever you are
Enter Sandman
Say your prayers little one
Don't forget my son to include
everyone
I tuck you in, warm within, keep you free from sin
Till the
sandman he comes
Sleep with one eye open
Gripping your pillow tight
Exit light
Enter night
Take my hand
We're off to
never, never land
Something's wrong, shut the light
Heavy thoughts tonight
and they aren't of snow white
Dreams of war, dreams of liars, dreams of
dragon's fire
And the things that will bite
Sleep with one eye open
Gripping your pillow tight
Exit light
Enter night
Grain of sand
We're off to
never, never land
Now I lay me down to sleep
I pray the Lord my soul to keep
Guard me Angels through the night
Wake me in the morning light
Hush little baby, don't say a word
And never mind that
noise you heard
It's just the beasts under your bed
In your closet, in
your head
Exit light
Enter night
Take my hand
We're off to
never, never land
Exit light
Enter night
Grain of sand
We're off to
never never land, let's go
Bernardine
Oh, Bernardine (sigh)
Oh, oh, oh, Bernadine
I can tell
by the dimple on your chin
You're in beautiful shape for the shape you're in
An' I'm in shape for Bernardine
Oh, Bernardine
Oh, oh, oh, Bernardine
When you wander
inta my dreams at night
Your remarkable form is a pure delight
I go, go,
go for Bernardine
Bernardine, Bernardine
You're a little bit like ev'ry girl
I've ever seen
Oh, your separate parts are not unknown
But the way you
assemble them's all your own
All yours and mine, dear Bernardine (yours and
mine, dear Bernadine)
Oh, Bernardine
Oh, oh, oh, Bernardine
Say you'll wait
for me out by the rocket base
And we'll both blast off into outer space
At oh, oh, oh-oh, Bernardine
Bernardine, Bernardine
Come away with me now in the
rocket-propelled machine
We'll come home by the way of a drive-in spa
Just a little this side of Shangri-La
And there I'll stay with Bernardine
(there I'll stay with Bernardine)
There I'll stay with Bernardine
