"In Style And Rhythm"

"In Style And Rhythm"

I see the girls by the pool
and they are playing it cool
and they are playing it fine but,
I miss the rhythm divine

I miss their elegant touch
it's all a little too much
You gotta do it in style,
and rhythm...

I see the guys on the street
I see the people they meet and
they are playing it smart
but I'm not buying that part
They are playing it tough
That's strictly doubious stuff
You gotta do it in style,
and rhythm...

I see the people around
They're spending dollars and pounds
They think they are so debonair, but
I'm not buying that flair
They got all the right moves
but I'm missing the groove
You gotta do it in style,
and rhythm...

So when you check someone out
and the music is loud
Don't concentrate on the lips,
just keep your eyes on the hips
and if there's plenty of swing
Then sure enough there is zing.
You gotta do it in style,
and rhythm, and rhythm, and rhythm, and rhythm.

You gotta do it in style, and rhythm,
style and rhythm, do it in style,
do got to do it in rhythm, do it in rhythm,
style and rhythm, style and rhythm
Well, you know what I mean
Style, rhythm, oh whole lot of rhythm,
oh whole lot of rhythm, Oh yeah...

"It Must Be You"

"It Must Be You"

The sun is shining, it's everywhere
Don't have no worry, don't have no care
It must be true, this is the season
Baby it must be you
It was raining the other day
But that lonely feeling has gone away
It must be true, it's so pleasing
It must be you
That's what they say, in those old storybooks of old
You light my way and you satisfy my soul
It must be magic, it must be love
Oh what could I have been thinking of
It's the reason I'm feeling so blue
It must be you
Well that's what they say, in those old storybooks of old
You light my way and you satisfy my soul
It must be magic, it must be bliss
Oh it must be rain on a night like this
It must be true, that's the reason I think
It must be you
It must be you
Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
Baby, b-b-b-b-b-b-baby
It must be you
I really do believe, it must be you
Baby, baby, I really do believe, really do believe, really do believe

"It'll Be Me"

"It'll Be Me"

If you hear somebody knockin' on your door
If you see somebody crawlin' across the floor
Baby it'll be me, I'll be lookin' for you
And if you see somebody climbin' up a telegraph pole
If you find a new lump in your sugar bowl
Baby it'll be me, I'll be looking for you

I'm gonna look in the mountains
Down in the deep blue sea
I'm gonna look in the forest
And look and look in every tree

If you find a new bait on your fishin' hook
And if you find a funny face in your comic book
Baby it'll be me I'll be lookin' for you
[Spoken:] Well, keep on lookin'

[Instrumental Break]

I'm gonna look in the cities
Where the lights are blue
Gonna search the country side
And the haystacks too

Well if you see something shootin' out across the stars
If you see a rocket ship in it's way to Mars
Baby it'll be me
Yeah I'll be lookin' for you
I'll be lookin' for you
Well, I'll be lookin' for you

"It's A Man's Man's Man's World"

"It's A Man's Man's Man's World"

This is a man's world, this is a man's world
But it wouldn't be nothing, nothing without a woman or a girl

You see, man made the cars to take us over the road
Man made the trains to carry heavy loads
Man made electric light to take us out of the dark
Man made the boat for the water, like Noah made the ark

This is a man's, a man's, a man's world
But it wouldn't be nothing, nothing without a woman or a girl

Man thinks about a little baby girls and a baby boys
Man makes then happy 'cause man makes them toys
And after man has made everything, everything he can
You know that man makes money to buy from other man

This is a man's world
But it wouldn't be nothing, nothing without a woman or a girl

He's lost in the wilderness
He's lost in bitterness

"It's Been A Long, Long Time"

"It's Been A Long, Long Time"

Kiss me once, then kiss me twice
Then kiss me once again.
It's been a long, long time.
Haven't felt like this, my dear
Since I can't remember when.
It's been a long, long time

You'll never know how many dreams
I've dreamed about you.
Or just how empty they all seemed without you.
So kiss me once, then kiss me twice
Then kiss me once again.
It's been a long, long time.

Ah, kiss me once, then kiss me twice
Then kiss me once again.
It's been a long time.
Haven't felt like this my dear
Since I can't remember when
It's been a long, long time.

"It's Four In The Morning"

"It's Four In The Morning"

It's four in the morning and once more the dawning
Just woke up the wanting in me
Wishin' I'd never met her, knowing if I forget her
How much better off she would be

The longer I hold on, the longer this goes on
The harder that it's going to be
But it's four in the morning and once more the dawning
Just woke up the wanting in me

I'd never desert her, God knows when I hurt her
That's the last thing that I want to do
She tries, but she can't tell how she feels
But I know, too well, just what she's going through

If I love her so much, I don't know why I can't do
The right thing and just let her be
But it's four in the morning and once more the dawning
Just woke up the wanting in me

Last night I told her, "This time it's all over"
Making two times I've told her goodbye
Last night, we broke up, this morning I woke up
And for the fifth time, I'm changing my mind

I saw more love in her eyes when I left her
Than most foolish men will ever see
An' it's four in the morning and once more the dawning
Just woke up the wanting in me

It's four in the morning and once more the dawning
Just woke up the wanting in me
Wishin' I'd never met her

"It's Just A Matter Of Time"

"It's Just A Matter Of Time"

Someday, some way, you'll realize that you've been blind
Yes, darling, you're going to need me again
It's just a matter of time

Go on, go on, until you reach the end of the line
But I know you'll pass my way again
It's just a matter of time

After I gave you everything I had You laughed and called me a clown
Remember, in your search for fortune and fame
What goes up must come down

I know, I know that one day you'll wake up and find
That my love was a true love
It's just a matter of time

"It's Magic"

"It's Magic"

You sigh, the song begins, you speak and I hear violins
It's magic
The stars desert the skies and rush to nestle in your eyes
It's magic

Without a golden wand or mystic charms
Fantastic things begin when I am in your arms

When we walk hand-in-hand, the world becomes a wonderland
It's magic
How else can I explain those raindrops, when there is no rain?
It's magic

Why do I tell me myself these things that happen are all really true
When in my heart I know the magic is my love for you?

It's magic
It's magic

Why do I tell me myself these things that happen are all really true
When in my heart I know the magic is my love for you?

"Jezebel"

"Jezebel"

[Chorus]
Jezebel
She cast a spell
After the show
If you meet her at the backdoor
She likes the boys in the band
She was a one-night-stand
But you better watch your wallet
She clean out your pockets
Jezebel

Jezebel
She's fine as hell
I met her in a pub
That's when she cast her spell
I looked in her eyes
It was time to bail
We left the club sometime after twelve
Now she got me hypnotized to the bossa nova
Trapped in the twilight hoping this spell could be over

[Chorus]

Jezebel
She's a crook
Seduces men with her looks
She'll control your mind
And then she'll rob you blind
Jezebel
She looks alive from crime
Now she still got me hypnotized to the bossa nova
Trapped in the twilight hoping this spell could be over

[Chorus: x2]

Mama, lay me down to sleep
I pray the Lord my soul to keep
But if I die before I wake
I pray the Lord my soul to take

Now I learned from my mistakes
And when I woke from the nightmare dream
I realized it's not too late
If there's anybody out there that knows a Jezebel
Watch your back or she will send your soul to hell

[Chorus: x2]

Jezebel, Jezebel, Jezebel, Jezebel

"Just Dropped In"
(originally by Mickey Newbury)

"Just Dropped In"
(originally by Mickey Newbury)

I woke up this mornin' with the sundown shinin' in
I found my mind in a brown paper bag, but then...
I tripped on a cloud and fell eight miles high
I tore my mind on a jagged sky
I just dropped in to see what condition my condition was in

I pushed my soul in a deep dark hole and then I followed it in
I watched myself crawlin' out as I was a-crawlin' in
I got up so tight I couldn't unwind
I saw so much I broke my mind
I just dropped in to see what condition my condition was in

Someone painted "April Fool" in big black letters on a dead end sign
I had my foot on the gas as I left the road and blew out my mind
Eight miles outta Memphis and I got no spare
Eight miles straight up downtown somewhere
I just dropped in to see what condition my condition was in
I said I just dropped in to see what condition my condition was in
I said I just dropped in to see what condition my condition was in
