"Bye Bye Blues"

"Bye Bye Blues"


Bye bye blues.... bye bye blues
Bells ring.... birds sing
Sun is shin-in'.... no more pin-in'
Just we two...smil-in' through
Don't sigh....don't cry
Bye bye blues

Bye bye blues....I'm sayin' bye bye blues
Bells will ring and birds all sing
Stop your mope-in', keep on hope-in'
You and me....can't you see
Now don't you sigh.....and don't you cry
Bye bye blues

"Call Me"

"Call Me"


If you're feelin' sad and lonely
There's a service I can render
Tell the one who loves you only
I can be so warm and tender

Call me, don't be afraid, you can call me
Maybe it's late but just call me
Tell me and I'll be around

When it seems your friends desert you
There's somebody thinking of you
I'm the one who never hurt you
Maybe that's because I love you

Call me, don't be afraid, you can call me
Maybe it's late but just call me
Tell me and I'll be around

Now don't forget me 'cause if you let me
I will always stay with you
You've got to trust me, that's how it must be
There's so much that I can do

If you call I'll be right with you
You and I should be together
Take this love I long to give you
I'll be at your side forever

Call me, don't be afraid, you can call me
Maybe it's late but just call me
Tell me and I'll be around

When it seems your friends desert you
There's somebody thinking of you
I'm the one who never hurt you
Maybe that's because I love you

Call me, call me, call me
Call me, call me, call me, call me

"Can I Change My Mind?"

"Can I Change My Mind?"


Aww, she didn't bat an eye
As I packed my bags to leave
I thought she would start to cry
Or sit around my room and grieve

But y'all, the girl, she fooled me this time
She acted like I was the last thing on her mind
I would like to start all over again
Baby, can I change my mind

I just wanna change my mind
Baby, let me change my mind
As I took those steps
Toward that open door

Knowing all the time
Oh, Lord, I just didn't wanna go
But she didn't give me no sign
Nothing that would make me change my mind

I would like to start all over again
Baby, can I change my mind
Please, please, please, baby
I just wanna change my mind

Oh, I played my games
Many times before
But peoples, let me tell y'all
Oh, I never reached the door

But ooh, the winds howl tonight
I keep lookin' back but my baby's nowhere in sight
I would like to start all over again
Baby, can I change my mind

Please, please, please, baby
Baby, let me change my mind...

"Caramba! It's The Samba"

"Caramba! It's The Samba"


Tonight is my night out for dancing
There's a guy that I'm romancing
I hope he falls for me before the night is through
I can't wait till we start swaying
What the heck is that they're playing
Caramba! It's the samba, it's the one dance I can't do

You better play a rumba for me
'Cause I know he will adore me
When I begin to do a rumba shake or two
I am waiting on the floor now
Just another minute more now
Caramba! It's the samba, it's the one dance I can't do

When they play something dreamy
You will see me waltz away from everyone
And when I tango
All the gang go
Off the floor to watch the fun

Aye! There must be a million
Of the tunes that aren't Brazilian
So I can't understand why they don't play a few
Ah! The band's about to start now
There'll be music in my heart now
Caramba! It's the samba, it's the one dance I can't do

When they play something dreamy
You will see me waltz away from everyone
And when I tango
All the gang go
Off the floor to watch the fun

Aye! There must be a million
Of the tunes that aren't Brazilian
So I can't understand why they don't play a few
Ah! The band's about to start now
There'll be music in my heart now
Caramba! It's the samba, it's the one dance I can't do

Ho-ba! Ho-ba!

"Cheek To Cheek"

"Cheek To Cheek"


Heaven, I'm in heaven
And my heart beats so that I can hardly speak
And I seem to find the happiness I seek
When we're out together dancing cheek to cheek

Heaven, I'm in heaven
And the cares that hung around me through the week
Seem to vanish like a gambler's lucky streak
When we're out together dancing cheek to cheek

Oh I love to climb a mountain
And to reach the highest peak
But it doesn't thrill me half as much
As dancing cheek to cheek
Oh I love to go out fishing
In a river or a creek
But I don't enjoy it half as much
As dancing cheek to cheek

Dance with me, I want my arms about you
The charm about you
Will carry me through
To heaven, I'm in heaven
And my heart beats so that I can hardly speak
And I seem to find the happiness I seek
When we're out together dancing cheek to cheek

Oh I love to climb a mountain
And to reach the highest peak
But it doesn't thrill me half as much
As dancing cheek to cheek
Oh I love to go out fishing
In a river or a creek
But I don't enjoy it half as much
As dancing cheek to cheek

Dance with me, I want my arms about you
The charm about you
Will carry me through
To heaven, I'm in heaven
And my heart beats so that I can hardly speak
And I seem to find the happiness I seek
When we're out together dancing cheek to cheek

"Chi-Baba, Chi-Baba (My Bambino Go To Sleep)"

"Chi-Baba, Chi-Baba (My Bambino Go To Sleep)"


Many a year ago in old Sorrento
a certain ditty was quite the thing
Whenever a mother rocked her baby in Sorrento
this little ditty she used to sing:

Chi-baba, chi-baba, chi-wawa
An' chi-lawa kook-a la goombah
Chi-baba, chi-baba, chi-wawa
my bambino go to sleep!

Chi-baba, chi-baba, chi-wawa
An' chi-lawa kook-a la goombah
Chi-baba, chi-baba, chi-wawa
my bambino go to sleep!

All the stars are in the skies ready to say "goodnight"
can't you see your doll is sleepy too?
Close your drowsy little eyes, mama will hold you tight
while she sings a lullaby to you:

Oh, chi-baba, chi-baba, chi-wawa
An' chi-lawa kook-a la goombah
Chi-baba, chi-baba, chi-wawa
my bambino go to sleep!

All the stars are in the skies ready to say "goodnight"
can't you see your doll is sleepy too?
Close your drowsy little eyes, mama will hold you tight
while she sings a lullaby to you:

Oh, chi-baba, chi-baba, chi-wawa
An' chi-lawa kook-a la goombah
Chi-baba, chi-baba, chi-wawa
my bambino go to sleep!

"Christmas Carousel"

"Christmas Carousel"


Christmas is a carousel
And round and round we go
Busy doin', wrapping things
For ev'ryone we know
Trim the house and trim the tree
And let the spirit show
Sing some carols loud and clear
And set the lights aglow

Hang your stocking for Saint Nick
And he will fill it up
Don't forget to leave some cookies
And a Christmas cup
Leave some food for all his reindeer
And the Christmas mouse
Leave a little bit of cheese
Somewhere around the house

Now I think that we're all set
So let's all take a ride
Don't you feel the Christmas joy
That makes you glad inside
Hold your candycane way out
As round and round we go
And if you should catch the ring
It's made of mistletoe

"Close Your Eyes"

"Close Your Eyes"


Music play
Something dreamy for dancing
While we're here romancing
It's love's holiday
And Love will be our guide

Close your eyes
When you open them dear
I'll be right hear by your side
So...

Close your eyes
Rest your head on my shoulder and sleep
Close your eyes
And I will close mine

Close your eyes
Let's pretend that we're both counting sheep
Close your eyes
This is divine

Music play
Something dreamy for dancing
While were here romancing
It's love's holiday
And Love will be our guide

Close your eyes
When you open them dear
I'll be near by your side
So won't you close your eyes

"Come Back To Me"

"Come Back To Me"


Hear my voice, where you are
Take a train, steal a car
Hop a freight, grab a star
Come back to me

Catch a flame, catch a breeze
On your hands, on your knees
Swim or fly, only please
Come on back to me

On a mule, in a jet
Put yourself in a net
But come back to me, yet
I don't care, this is where you should be

From the hills, from the shore
Ride the wind to my door, turn the highway into dust
Break the law if you must, move the world only just
Come back to me

Blast your hide, hear me call
Must I fight city hall
Here and now, darn it all
Come on back to me

What on earth must I do
Scream and yell till I'm blue
Curse your soul when will you
Come on back to me

Have you gone to the moon
Or the corner saloon
And to crack and to croon
I don't care, this is where you should be

In a crate, in a trunk
On a horse, on a drunk
In a road or a van
Wrap yourself in saran
Anyway that you can
Came back to me

Come back to me
Come back to me

"Come Dance With Me"

"Come Dance With Me"


Hey there cutes, put on your dancin' boots
And come dance with me
Come dance with me, what an evenin' for some Terpsichore
Pretty face, I know a swingin' place
Come on, dance with me

Romance with me cross a crowded floor
And while the rhythm swings
What lovely things I'll be sayin'
Cause what is dancin' but makin' love
Set to music, playin'
When the band begins to leave the stand
Folks start to roam
As we waltz home, cheek to cheek we'll be
Come on, come on, come on
Come on and dance with me
