Blue Monday
Blue Monday how I hate blue Monday!
Gotta work like a
slave all day.
Here comes Tuesday
oh Tuesday
I'm so tired I'm tryin'
to play.
Here comes Wendesday
I'll be to myself
my world's poor by
the time that I'm up.
But then it's a hard workin' day
but I gotta get
my pay.
Saturday morning
oh Saturday morning
all my time has kept
going away.
I got my money and my honey
and I'm gonna stay to play.
Sunday morning my head is bad.
Was it worth it for the time that I had?
But I got to get my rest
because Monday is a mess.
Saturday morning...
Blueberry Hill
I found my thrill on blueberry hill
On blueberry hill when
I found you
The moon stood still on blueberry hill
And lingered until my
dreams came true
The wind in the willow played
Love's sweet melody
But
all of those vows we made
Were never to be
Tho' we're apart, you're part of me still
For you were my
thrill on blueberry hill
Be My Guest
Come on baby an be my guest
and join the party and meet the
rest
Everything is gonna be allright
to be my guest tonight
We're gonna dance in a Rock and Roll
we're gonna even – do
the stroll
We're gonna lend you half a Suse cuet – a special party just for
you
My – my oh my
she – is so fine
no – let me down
I'm
the king but you can wear my crown
I'm gonna sing a bagl of play
I'm gonna make you queen of
my day
everything is gonna be allright
to be my guest tonight
My Girl Josephine
Hello, Josephine
how do you do ?
Do you remember me,
baby,
like I remember you?
You used to laugh at me,
and how you pu
pu pu.
I used to walk you home,
I used to hold your hand,
you
used to use my umbrella
every time in rain.
You used to cry so much,
it was a cry in shame.
You used to live over Jando
by the railroad track,
when it rained you couldn't walk,
I used to tow you on my back.
Now you
try to make a leave,
it was, you did like that.
Hello Josephine.........
All By Myself
Little girl don't you understand
I wanna be your lovin' man
All by myself, all by myself
I don't need no-one to love you
Gonna love
you all by myself
Well meet me in a hurry behind the barn
Don't be afraid
I'll do you no harm
All by myself, all by myself
I don't need no-one to
love you
Gonna love you all by myself
Well I got a girl who's six feet tall
Sleeps in the kitchen
with her feet in the hall
All by myself, all by myself
I don't need no-one
to love her
Gonna love her all by myself
Well I got a girl who lives on the hill
She won't love you
but her sister will
All by herself, all by herself
I don't need no-one to
love you
Gonna love you all by herself
It Keeps Rainin

Tears from my eyes

All I do is cry
Won't somebody help me?
Somebody help me

That my baby done left me
She left me reelin' and rockin'
Walkin' the floor

She won't be back no more
It keep rainin' an rainin'
Tears from my eyes
Since you

All I do is cry
Won't somebody help me

What A Price
Oh what a price
I had to pay
For lovin you, youuuuuu
I bought her home
A diamond ring
I had to give up
everything
Oh what a price
I had to pay
For lovin you, youuuuuu
I try so hard
To do whats right
But you only wrecked my
life
Oh what a price
I had to pay
For lovin you, youuuuu
I stopped my ramblin
I even stopped gamblin
I even
stopped staying out all night
Oh what a price
I had to pay
For lovin
you, youuuuuu
You heard my story
I sang my song
So goodbye, baby I'm
gone
Oh what a price
I had to pay
For lovin you, youuuuuu
Who Cares
I walked down
This ol' lonely street
No one seems to
want to speak
Ohhhhh who cares
Yes, who cares for me
Al' the weather feel cold
Everything is green
Nothin
seemed the same since
You went away
Ohhhhh who cares
Yes, who cares for
me
She leaves happiness and be found
Sure there is someone,
for me
Unless I go through life
with this hopeless love,
Oh why can't I
be set free
All I want is you
All I know is you
But somehow our love
Just can't be
Ohhhhh who cares
Yes, who cares for me
She leaves happiness, and be found
Sure there is someone,
for me
Unless I go through life
with this hopeless love,
Oh why can't I
be set free
All I want is you
All I know is you
But somehow our love
Just can't be
Ohhhhh who cares
Yes, who cares for me
I'm gonna leave
I'm leave this town
I'm goin to the
river
You're gonna go and drownd.
Stagger Lee
The night was clear and the moon was yellow
And the leaves
came tumbling down
I was standing on the corner when I heard my bulldog bark
He was barkin' at the two men who were gamblin' in the dark
It was Stagger
Lee and Billy, two men who gambled late
Stagger Lee threw seven, Billy swore
that he threw eight
Stagger Lee told Billy, "I can't let you go with that"
"You
have won all my money and my brand new stetson hat"
Stagger Lee started off
goin' down that railroad track
He said "I can't get you Billy but don't be
here when I come back"
Stagger Lee went home and he got his forty-four
Said "I'm
goin' to the barroom just to pay that debt I owe"
Stagger Lee went to the
barroom and he stood across the barroom door
He said "Nobody move" and he
pulled his forty-four
Stagger Lee shot Billy, oh he shot that poor boy so bad
Till the bullet came through Billy and it broke the bartender's glass
South Of The Border
South of the border, down Mexico way.
That's where I fell
in love when stars above, came out to play.
And now as I wonder, my thoughts
ever stray.
South of the border, down Mexico way.
She was a picture, in old spanish lace.
Just for a little
while I kissed the smile, upon her face.
For it was fiesta, and we were so
gay
South of the border, down Mexico way.
Then she sighed as she whispered manyana, never dreaming that
we were parting.
And I lied as I whispered manyana, for our tomorrow never
came.
South of the border, I rode back one day.
There in a veil
of white by candlelight, she kneelt to pray.
The mission bells told me, that
I mushn'tt stay.
South of the border, down Mexico way.
