"I Only Have Eyes For You"

"I Only Have Eyes For You"



Are the stars out tonight?
I don't know if it's cloudy or bright
'cause I only have eyes for you, dear
The moon may be high
But I can't see a thing in the sky
'cause I only have eyes for you.

I don't know if we're in a garden
Or on a crowded avenue
You are here, so am I
Maybe millions of people go by
But they all disappear from view
Cause I only have eyes for you

I don't know if we're in a garden
Or on a crowded avenue
You are here, so am I
Maybe millions of people go by
But they all disappear from view
Cause I only have eyes for you

"I Pray On Christmas"

"I Pray On Christmas"



I pray on Christmas
That the Lord will see me through
I pray on Christmas
He'll show me what to do

I pray on Christmas
He'll help me understand
And I pray on Christmas
He'll take me by the hand

I pray on Christmas
That the sick will soon be strong
I pray on Christmas
The Lord will hear my song

I pray on Christmas
That God will lead the way
And I pray on Christmas
He'll get me through another day

I pray on Christmas
I pray on Christmas
I pray on Christmas
He'll get me through another day

I pray on Christmas
All our problems gonna be worked out
I pray on Christmas
God'll show us what love's about

I pray on Christmas
To do your will each day
And I pray on Christmas
That I'll be with you in heaven some day

I pray on Christmas
Oh, the sick will soon be strong
I pray on Christmas
The Lord will hear my song

I pray on Christmas
That God will lead the way
And I pray I really pray on Christmas
He'll get me through another day
He'll get me through another day...

"I Wonder As I Wander"

"I Wonder As I Wander"



I wonder as I wander, out under the sky
How Jesus the savior, did come to die
To save lowly people like you and like I
I wonder as I wander, out under the sky

Sweet Mary laid Jesus, within a cow's stall
Came wise men and farmers and shepherds and all
The blessings of Christmas heaven did fall
And God's promise of ages, to them did recall

If Jesus had wanted for any small thing
A cloud in the sky or a bird on the wing
Or all of God's angels in heaven to sing
He surely could have had it, because
He was the King
Because He was King!

"I'll Be Home For Christmas"

"I'll Be Home For Christmas"



I'll be home for Christmas
You can plan on me
Please have snow and mistletoe
And presents on the tree

Christmas eve will find me
Where the love-light gleams
I'll be home for Christmas If only in my dreams

"I'll Dream Of You Again"

"I'll Dream Of You Again"



I spent last night dreaming of your eyes
But your hair kept getting in the way
Your lips dropped in to tell me how you'd been
But when I tried to kiss them
My pillow told me I missed them

Your voice dropped by and sang a lullaby
And it was then I knew just what to do
I'd fall asleep and then
I'd dream of you again

"I'll Only Miss Her (When I Think Of Her)"

"I'll Only Miss Her (When I Think Of Her)"



I'll only miss her when I think of her
And I'll think of her all the time
Likely I'll spend my days hearing her turn of a phrase
Things I found hard to praise, right now, would seem sublime

And the truth is
I'll only miss her when some stranger laughs
'Cause it's still her laugh my heart hears
Maybe in time, I guess, the longing will grow the slightest bit less
And there will be moments, yes, when it disappears
I'll bet I forget her completely
In about a hundred years

The truth is
I'll only miss her when some stranger laughs
'Cause it's still her laugh my heart hears
Maybe in time, I guess, the longing will grow the slightest bit less
And there will be moments, yes, when it disappears
I'll bet I forget her completely
In about a hundred years.

"I'm An Old Cowhand (From The Rio Grande)"

"I'm An Old Cowhand (From The Rio Grande)"



Oh, step aside, y'all ornery tenderfeet
Cause I'm about to sing my song
I'm an old cowhand from the Rio Grande
But my legs ain't bowed, and my cheeks ain't tan
Well I'm a cowboy who never saw a cow
Never roped a steer 'cause I don't know how
And I sure ain't fixin' to startin now
Oh, yippee-i-o-ki-ay, yippee-i-o-ki-ay

I'm an old cowhand from the Rio Grande
And I learned to ride before I learned to stand
Well I'm a ridin fool who is up to date
I know every trail in the Lone Star State
'Cause I ride the range in a Ford V-8
Oh, yippee-i-o-ki-ay, yippee-i-o-ki-ay

Look out, I'm gonna show y'all how to ride now
Here we go

I'm an old cowhand from the Rio Grande
And I come to town just to hear the band
I know all the songs that the cowboys know
'Bout the big corral where the dogies go
'Cause I learned them all on the radio
Oh, yippee-i-o-ki-ay, yippee-i-o-ki-ay

Now my story's almost done, so listen up!
You ain't got much longer now

I'm an old cowhand from the Rio Grande
Where the west is wild round the borderland
Where the buffalo roam around the zoo
And the indian make you a rug or two
And the old Bar-X is the Bar-be-cue
Oh, yippee-i-o-ki-ay, yippee-i-o-ki-ay

I'm just an old cowhand...

"I'm Gonna Be The First One"

"I'm Gonna Be The First One"



I don't much care
If I am the last in line to see
Whatever that it is
That they're lining up to see
You see, it doesn't concern me

I don't much care
If I am the very last to know
Whatever that it is
That they know about, oh, no
Oh, no I really don't care to know

'Cause when it comes to Santa Claus
And presents 'round the tree
No one I know could ever get jump on me

I'm gonna be the first one
Up on Christmas morning
I'm gonna be the first one
Up on Christmas day

I've always heard that the
Early birdie catches all the worms
But worms ain't for me, no
They're not my cup of tea
And I am certainly not a birdie
Me, I'd rather sleep 'til three

'Cause when it comes to Santa Claus
And presents 'round the tree
No one I know could ever get jump on me

I'm gonna be the first one
Up on Christmas morning
I'm gonna be the first one
Up on Christmas day

"I'm Walkin'"

"I'm Walkin'"



I'm walkin', yes indeed and I'm talkin'
About you and me, I'm hopin'
That you'll come back to me,
I'm lonely as I can be, I'm waitin'
For your company, I'm hopin'
That you'll come back to me

What you gonna do when the well runs dry?
You gonna run away and hide
I'm gonna run right by your side
For you pretty baby I'll even die
I'm walkin', yes indeed and I'm talkin'
About you and me, I'm hopin'
That you'll come back to me

Well, what you gonna do when the well runs dry?
You're gonna sit right down and cry
What you gonna do when I say goodbye
All you gonna do is dry your eye
I'm walkin', yes indeed and I'm talkin'
About you and me, I'm hopin'
That you'll come back to me

"I've Got A Great Idea"

"I've Got A Great Idea"



I've got a great idea
And wouldn't you like to know
You probably can't bear it
So I guess I'll have to share it
I thought of it a moment ago

It starts with your hand in mine
And next comes a little stroll
You probably won't buy it
But I'm trying to keep it quiet
So please don't tell a soul

'Cause if you do
The world and you
Will think I'm crazy and give me medicine
They'll drag me away
And as I go you'll hear me say
I could have been a decent match for Edison

Ideas are few and far between
And good ideas are rarer still
So listen and be wise
Just forget the other guys
'Cause my idea's no good for three
My idea is you and me
