"Leave My Woman Alone"
(originally by Ray Charles)



Well
Now, if you don't want, you don't have to get in trouble
If you don't want, you don't have to get in trouble
If you don't want, you don't have to (get in trouble)
Say, you better leave my woman alone

Well, I know you are a playboy
And you've got your women all over town
But listen, buddy, if you ever sweet-talk my little girl
I'm gonna lay your body down

Say, if you don't want, you don't have to (get in trouble)
Now, if you don't want, no you (get in trouble)
No, you don't want, you don't have to get in trouble
Say, you better leave my woman alone

Well I know you got all kinds of money
And a brand new sixty-two
But if I ever see my little girl in your sports car
I'm gonna do some work on you

Say, if you don't want, you don't have to (get in trouble)
No, if you don't want, you don't have to (get in trouble)
If you ever don't want, you don't have to (get in trouble)
Oh, you better leave my woman alone

I don't believe in starting trouble
And I don't want to pick me a fight
But if you take heed and stay away from my little girl
Everything will be alright

If you don't want to (get in trouble)
No, you don't, if you don't want {get in trouble)
I mean to tell you, if you don't want, you don't have to (get in trouble)
Oh, you better leave my woman alone

My woman alone
My (woman alone)
You better leave (woman alone)
You better leave (woman alone)
You better leave (woman alone)
You better leave (woman alone)
You better leave (woman alone)
You better leave (woman alone)
You better leave (woman alone)
You better leave (woman alone)
You better leave (woman alone)
You better leave (woman alone)
You better leave (woman alone)
You better leave (woman alone)
You better leave (woman alone)
You better leave (woman alone)
You better leave (woman alone)
You better leave (woman alone)
You better leave (woman alone)
You better leave (woman alone)
You better leave (woman alone)
You better leave (woman alone)
You better leave (woman alone)
You better leave (woman alone)
You better leave (woman alone)
Why don't you leave (woman alone)
You better leave (woman alone)
You better leave (woman alone)
You better leave (woman alone)
You better leave (woman alone)
You better leave (woman alone)
Now, you better leave (woman alone)
You better leave (woman alone)

Now if you don't want, you don't have to (get in trouble)
Well if you don't want, you don't have to (get in trouble)
If you don't want, you don't have to (get in trouble)
Say, you better leave my woman alone
My woman alone
My (woman alone)

"Lonesome Polecat"
(with Johnny Mercer)

"Lonesome Polecat"
(with Johnny Mercer)



[Bobby:]
I'm a lonesome polecat
Lonesome, sad and blue
'cause I ain't got no
Feminine polecat
Vowin' to be true
Can't make no vow
To a heard of cows

[Johnny:]
I'm a mean old hound dog
Bayin' at the moon
'cause I ain't got no
Lady friend hound dog
Here to hear my tune
A man can't sleep
When he sleeps with sheep

[Both:]
I'm a little old hoot owl
Hootin' in the trees
'cause I ain't got no
Little gal owl fowl
Here to shoot the breeze
Can't shoot no breeze
With a bunch of trees
Why can't I lose
These lonesome polecat blues?

"Long Ago And Far Away"

"Long Ago And Far Away"


Long ago and far away
I dreamed a dream one day
And now that dream is here beside me.

Long the skies were overcast
But now the clouds have passed
You're here at last!

Chills run up and down my spine
Aladdin's lamp is mine
The dream I dreamed was not denied me.

Just one look and then I knew
That all I longed for long ago was you.

Chills run up and down my spine
Aladdin's lamp is mine
The dream I dreamed was never denied me.

One look and then I knew
That all I longed for long ago was you.

That all I longed for long ago...

Aaahhh... just one look and then I knew
That all I longed for long ago was you.

"Long Line Rider"

"Long Line Rider"


Wettin' it down, boss
Wet it down
Wipin' it off, boss
Wipe it off
Doin' ten to twenty hard
Swingin' twelve pounds in the yard
Every day
Every day
I came in with a group of twenty
There ain't left but half as many
In the clay
In the clay
Long line rider, turn away

There's a farm in Arkansas
Got some secrets in its floor
In decay
In decay
You can tell where they're at
Nothin' grows, the ground is flat
Where they lay
Where they lay
Long line rider, turn away

All the records show so clear
Not a single man was here
Anyway
Anyway
That's the tale the warden tells
As he counts his empty shells
By the day
By the day
Hey, long line rider, turn away

Someone screams investigate
Excuse me, sir, it's a little late
Let us pray
Let us pray
This kinda thing can't happen here
'specially not in an election year
Outta my way
Outta my way
Hey, long line rider, turn away

There's a funny taste in the air
Big bulldozers everywhere
Diggin' clay
Turnin' clay
And the ground coughs up some roots
Wearin' denim shirts and boots
Haul 'em away
Haul 'em away
Hey, long line rider, turn away

Well I heard a brother moan
Why they plowin' up my home
In this way
In this way
I said, buddy, shake your gloom
They're just here to make more room
In the clay
U.S.A

"Look At Me"

"Look At Me"


Look at me
This at least you owe me
Just a glance to show me
That you really care

Look at me
Pride is taken from me
And tears just don't become me
But they're always there

Just one look
One look will do
That's all it took
To make me fall in love with you

Please turn around
I'll be looking for you
Waiting to adore you
Baby, look at me

Just one look
One look will do
That's all it took
To make me fall in love with you

So turn around
I'll be looking for you
Waiting to adore you
Baby, look at me

"Look For My True Love"

"Look For My True Love"


Ah, hey there rolling river
On your way to sea
Won't you look for my true love
And send her on home to me?

Whistlin' winds, well, I beg of you
With all of the things that you see
Won't you look for my true love
And send her on home to me?

I've been trying for a long, long time
To find the one I adore
Mr. Wind keep looking over this land
Mr. River search every shore until you find her

Mr. Moon if you're listening
Won't you answer my plea?
Won't you look for my true love
And send her on home to me?

I've been trying for a long, long time
To find the one I adore
Mr. Wind keep looking over this land
Mr. River search every shore until you find her

Mr. Moon if you're listening
Won't you answer my plea?
Won't you look for my true love
And send her on home to me?

I wanna know, won't you look for my true love
And send her on home to me?
Please, tell me that you gonna look for my true love
And send her on home to me

I wanna hear you tell me
That you gonna look for my true, true love
And send her on home to me
One more now, won't you look for my true love
And send her on home to me?

"Lost Love"

"Lost Love"


I lost the love I needed
The love to make me strong

I left the love I needed
How could I be so wrong?

If I were only granted
The right to start anew
My love would be lost to you

Lost love behind me
True love won't find me
Because I'm so lost

For all the years I wasted
And all mistakes I made
For all the loves I tasted
How dearly I have paid

If I could be forgiven
For all the pain I caused?

Too late
My fate is lost

Lost love behind me
True love won't find me
Because I'm so lost

"Mack The Knife"

"Mack The Knife"


Oh, the shark, babe, has such teeth, dear
And he shows them pearly white
Just a jackknife has old Macheath, babe
And he keeps it out of sight

You know when that shark bites with his teeth, babe
Scarlet billows start to spread
Fancy gloves, though, wears old Macheath, babe
So there's never, never a trace of red

Now on the sidewalk, ooh, sunny morning, uh-huh
Lies a body just oozin' life
Eek, and someone's sneakin' 'round the corner
Could that someone be Mack the Knife?

There's a tugboat down by the river, don't ya know
Where a cement bag's just a-droopin' on down
Oh, that cement is just, it's there for the weight, dear
Five'll get ya ten, old Macky's back in town

Now d'ya hear about Louie Miller? He disappeared, babe
After drawin' out all his hard-earned cash
And now Macheath spends just like a sailor
Could it be our boy's done something rash?

Now Jenny Diver, ho, ho, yeah, Sukey Tawdry
Ooh, Miss Lotte Lenya and old Lucy Brown
Oh, the line forms on the right, babe
Now that Macky's back in town

I said Jenny Diver, whoa, Sukey Tawdry
Look out to Miss Lotte Lenya and old Lucy Brown
Yes, that line forms on the right, babe
Now that Macky's back in town

Look out ol' Macky's back

"Make Someone Happy"

"Make Someone Happy"


Make someone happy,
Make just one someone happy.
Make just one heart the heart you sing to.
One smile that cheers you,
One face that lights when it nears you.
One gal you're everything to.

Fame, if you win it,
Comes and goes in a minute.
Where's the real stuff in life to cling to?
Love is the answer,
Someone to love is the answer.
Once you've found her,
Build your world around her.
Make someone happy.
Make just one someone happy
And you will be happy too.
