"Blue Moon"

"Blue Moon"

Once upon a time, before I took up smiling , I hated the moonlight.
Shadows of the night like the poorest find beguiling
Seems flat as the moonlight.
With no one to stay up for, I went to sleep at ten.
And life was a bitter cup for the saddest of all men.

Blue moon
You saw me standing alone
Without a dream in my heart
Without a love of my own.

Blue moon
You knew just what I was there for
You heard me saying a prayer for
Someone I really could care for.

And then there suddenly appeared before me
The only one my arms will ever hold
I heard somebody whisper please adore me
And when I looked the Moon had turned to gold.

Blue moon
Now I'm no longer alone
Without a dream in my heart
Without a love of my own...

"Blue Suede Shoes"

"Blue Suede Shoes"

Well, it's one for the money,
Two for the show,
Three to get ready,
Now go, cat, go.

But don't you, step on my blue suede shoes.
Well, You can do anything
But get off of my blue suede shoes.

Well, you can knock me down,
Step in my face,
Slander my name
All over the place.

Do anything that you want to do, but uh,
Baby, get off of my shoes
Don't you step on my Blue suede shoes.
You can do anything
But lay off of my blue suede shoes.

Well, you can burn my house,
Steal my car,
Drink my liquor
From an old fruitjar.

Do anything you want to do, but uh,
Baby, lay off of my shoes
Don't you step on my blue suede shoes.
You can do anything
But lay off of my blue suede shoes.

Well, it's one for the money,
Two for the show,
Three to get ready,
Now go, cat, go.

Well, Blue, blue, blue suede shoes. baby
Blue, blue, blue suede shoes. yea
Blue, blue, blue suede shoes, yea
Blue, blue, blue suede shoes
You can do anything
But lay off of my blue suede shoes...

"Blueberry Hill"

"Blueberry Hill"

I found my thrill
Yes, On Blueberry hill
On Blueberry hill
Woo, When I found you.

My heart stood still
Right there on Blueberry hill
You know it ain't good until
All my dreams came true.

The wind in the willow played
Love's sweet melody
And all of those vows we made
Are never to be.

Though we're apart
You know I dream of you still
'Cause you were my thrill
On Blueberry hill.

The wind in the willow played
Love's sweet melody
And all of those vows we made
Are never to be.

Though we're apart
You know I dream of you still
'Cause you were my thrill
Down on Blueberry hill...

"Boogie Grass Band"

"Boogie Grass Band"

There's a new kind of music going 'round
It's known as the Boogey Grass sound
So grab your partner and swing her around
And dance to the Boogey Grass sound.

I love to hear Bill sing about Kentucky
And the Almond brothers' "Ramblin' Man"
We put the music all together
So dance to the Boogey Grass Band.

Well, my daddy plays the banjo and saws a fiddle too
He taught me how to sing and play for you
I've got Blue Grass in my soul and rhythm in my feet
So dance to the Boogey Grass beat.

I love to hear Bill sing about Kentucky
And the Almond brothers' "Ramblin' Man"
We put the music all together
So dance to the Boogey Grass Band.

I love to hear Bill sing about Kentucky
And the Almond brothers' "Ramblin' Man"
We put the music all together
So dance to the Boogey Grass Band.

Yo tay eo lay eee...

"Borderline"

"Borderline"

A man can only last so long.
Before temptation gets too strong.
But I'm doin' all I know to do.
To try and stay away from you.
But I'm right on the Borderline.

You know I got a woman at home.
That I sure hate to leave alone.
But still you just keep comin' on
Like I'm not made of flesh and bone.
You got me right on the Borderline.

Borderline. Don't let me cross over.
She's right behind me in the moonlight.
Lord knows, I've tried to think of my lover.
Borderline. Don't let me cross her tonight.

Promises are easy made.
In the heat of passion, light of day.
But let that daylight start to fade
And your best laid plans might get mis-layed.
When you're right on the Borderline.

Borderline. Don't let me cross over.
She's right behind me in the moonlight.
Lord knows, I've tried to think of my lover.
Borderline. Don't let me cross her tonight.

Borderline. Don't let me cross her tonight.

Borderline. Don't let me cross her tonight...

"Born To Lose"

"Born To Lose"

Born to lose
I've lived my life in vain
Every dream
Has only brought me pain.

All my life
I've always been so blue
Born to lose
And now I'm losin' you.

Born to lose
It's been so hard to bear
And when I've waited
And I found that you're not there.

You've grown tired
And now you say we're through
Born to lose
And now I'm losin' you.

--- Instrumental ---

Mhm All my life
I've always been so blue
Born to lose
And now I'm, I'm losin' you...

"Born To Sing The Blues"

"Born To Sing The Blues"

Born to sing the blues
So tired an' worn, just singin' the blues
Alone right from the start,
I walked alone with blues in my heart.

True love, (true love) I've never known (I've never known.)
Everything (everything) I do is wrong. (all wrong.)
But wrong, I've always been
It's hard to go on when I never win.

My life, (my life) my destiny, (my destiny.)
Is loneliness (lonliness) and misery. (misery.)
My life, I didn't choose.
I guess, I was born to sing the blues.

The lonesome blues,
The weary blues...

"Bottle In The Hand"

"Bottle In The Hand"

Will I ask my old buddy to call her on the phone
He'll say I'm working late again, once more she'll be alone.
But I'll sit here in this barroom, just as long as I can
'Cause the bottle in the hand is much stronger than the man.

After all I've said and done she should leave me on the run
'Cause I've hurt her just as much as I can.
But I'll keep up my sinful living and she'll go on forgiving
She knows the bottle in the hand
Is much stronger than the man.

I'd go home if I was able cause that night life's gettin' old
Like the food on my table our love is growing cold.
But she goes to bed each evening without her loving man
Because the bottle in the hand is much stronger than the man.

After all I've said and done she should leave me on the run
'Cause I've hurt her just as much as I can.
But I'll keep up my sinful living and she'll go on forgiving
She knows the bottle in the hand
Is much stronger than the man...

"Boy Next Door"

"Boy Next Door"

I've known you since you were a schoolgirl
Saw the smoke turn to fire in your eyes
From the window of my room
I watched a young girl bloom
Saw the woman in you come alive

Watched you fall in love a time or two
I saw you get hurt once or twice
And you'd come running over, cry on my shoulder
Sometimes I'd get to hold you all night

There in my arms you'd lay soft and warm
You never felt the writing on the wall
You never knew how I wanted you
I was the boy next door, that's all
Just the boy next door, that's all

I watched you drift away out of my reach
I never got to hold you again
And here in my heart is the saddest part
We'll never know how it might have been

There in my arms you'd lay soft and warm
I sure love to catch you when you fall
But you never knew how I wanted you
I was the boy next door, that's all
Just the boy next door, that's all

Do you ever think about me, honey?
The boy next door, that's all
