"Gee Baby, Ain't I Good To You?"

"Gee Baby, Ain't I Good To You?"


Love makes me treat you the way that I do
Gee, baby ain't I good to you?
Nothing is too good for a girl as sweet as you
Gee, baby, now ain't I good to you?

Fur coat for Christmas, diamond ring
Big, fine, foxy Cadillac car and everything
Nothing is too good for a girl as sweet as you
Gee, baby ain't I good to you?

Love makes me treat you the way that I do
Gee, baby ain't I good to you?
Nothing is too good for a girl as sweet as you
Gee, baby ain't I good to you?

Fur coat for Christmas, diamond ring
Big, fine, foxy Cadillac car and everything
Nothing is too good for a girl as sweet as you
Gee, baby, gee, baby

Lord, lord, lord, lord
Gee, baby, ain't I good to you?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Gee, baby, ain't I good to you?

Fur coat for Christmas, diamond ring
Big, fine, foxy Cadillac car and everything
Nothing is too good for a girl as sweet as you
Gee, baby ain't I good to you?
Gee, baby ain't I good to you?

"Ghost Riders In The Sky (A Cowboy Legend)"

"Ghost Riders In The Sky (A Cowboy Legend)"


(Ghost Riders in the Sky)

An old cow polk went ridin’ out one dark and windy day
Upon a ranch he rested as he went along his way
When all at once a mighty herd of red eyed cows he saw
A plowin’ through the ragged sky and up the cloudy draw

(Yippee-I-Yay Yippee-I-Yay)
Ghost herd in the Sky

Their brands were still on fire and their hoofs were made of steel
Their horns were black and shiney and their hot breath he could feel
A bolt of fear went through him as they thundered through the sky
For he saw the riders coming hard and he heard their mournful cry

(Yippee-I-Yay Yippee-I-Yay)
Yippee-I-Yo, Yippee-I-Yay
Ghost Riders in the Sky

As the riders loped on by him, he heard one call his name
'If you want to save your soul from hell, you’re ridin’ on that range
then cowboy, change your ways today… or with us you’ll ride on
tryin’ to catch the devil’s herd across these endless sky'

(Yippee-I-Yay Yippee-I-Yay)
The ghost herd in the Sky
Ghost Riders in the Sky

"Goin' To Chicago Blues"

"Goin' To Chicago Blues"


Going to Chicago, sorry I can't take you
Going to Chicago, sorry I can't take you
There's nothing in Chicago that a man like you can do

When you see me coming, raise your window high
When you see me coming, raise your window high
When you see me going, baby, hang your head and cry

You're so mean and evil, you do things you shouldn't do
You're so mean and evil, you do things you shouldn't do
And you've got my brand of honey, guess I'll have to put up with you
I was going to Chicago but [?]

"Golden Earrings"

"Golden Earrings"


There's a story the gypsies know is true
That when your love wears golden earrings,
He belongs to you.

An old love story that's known to very few,
But if you wear those golden earrings,
Love will come to you.

By the burning fire, they will glow with ev'ry coal.
You will hear desire whisper low inside your soul.

So be my gypsy;
Make love your guiding light,
And let this pair of golden earrings
Cast their spell tonight.

"Good For Nothin' Joe"

"Good For Nothin' Joe"


It's gonna rain any minute
There's not a star in sight
Things are mighty slow
I guess, I'll close up shop
And go home to Joe

I know he won't be glad to see me
Without a penny to the good
But I'm not carin' much what happens
I did the best I could
He's just good-for-nothin' Joe

But, oh, I love him so
Guess, I'd die if good-for-nothin' Joe
Ever tried to leave me flat
Oh yes, I'm certain of that

Folks I know can't understand
Why I must have that man
Lord, he sends me like nobody can
Ain't a woman just like that?

I wouldn't mind doin' what I'm doin'
I'd beat these streets till my feet were sore
But when it's slow and I go home to him
Instead of sympathy, he's just as mean as can be

Still there's nothin' I can do
Because I love him so
I'd be good for nothin' too, I know
Without good-for-nothin' Joe

I'd be good for nothin' too, I know
Without good-for-nothin' Joe
I'm goin' home to Joe

"Gotta Travel On"

"Gotta Travel On"


I've laid around and played around this old town too long
Summer's almost gone, yes, winter's comin' on
I've laid around and played around this old town too long
And I feel like I gotta travel on

Poppa writes to Johnny, but Johnny can't come home
Johnny can't come home, no, Johnny can't come home
Poppa writes to Johnny, but Johnny can't come home
'Cause he's been on the chain gang too long.

I've laid around and played around this old town too long
Summer's almost gone, yes, winter's comin' on
I've laid around and played around this old town too long
And I feel like I gotta travel on

High sheriff and police riding after me,
Riding after me, yes, coming after me.
High sheriff and police coming after me,
And I fee like I gotta travel on

I've laid around and played around this old town too long
Summer's almost gone, yes, winter's comin' on
I've laid around and played around this old town too long
And I feel like I gotta travel on

Want to see my honey, want to see her bad.
Want to see her bad, oh, want to see her bad.
Want to see my honey, want to see her bad,
She's the best girl, this poor boy ever had.

I've laid around and played around this old town too long
Summer's almost gone, yes, winter's comin' on
I've laid around and played around this old town too long
And I feel like I gotta travel on

"Hallelujah, I Love Him So"

"Hallelujah, I Love Him So"


Let me tell you bout a boy I know
He is my baby and he loves me so
Every morning before the sun comes up
He brings my coffee in my favorite cup
That's why I know, yes I know
Hallelujah I just love him so

When I'm in trouble and I have no friends
I know he'll go with me until the end
Everybody asks me how I know
I smile and tell them he told me so
That's why I know, yes, I know
Hallelujah I just love him so

Now if I call him on the telephone
And tell him that I'm all alone
By the time I count from one to four
I hear him on my door

In the evening when the sun goes down
When there is nobody else around
He kisses me and than he holds me tight
He tells me "baby everything's all alright"

That's why I know, yes I know
Hallelujah I just love him so

O yes I know, yes I know
Hallelujah I just love him so

Now if I call him on the telephone
And tell him that I'm all alone
By the time I count from one to four
I hear him on my door

In the evening when the sun goes down
When there is nobody else around
He kisses me and than he holds me tight
He tells me "baby everything's all alright"

That's why I know, yes I know
Hallelujah I just love him so
Hallelujah I just love him so

"Happiness Is A Thing Called Joe"

"Happiness Is A Thing Called Joe"


It seem like happiness is just a thing called Joe
He's got a smile that makes the lilacs want to grow
He's got a way that makes the angels heave a sigh
When they see little Joe passin' by

Sometimes the cabin's gloomy and the cupboard's bare
But when he kisses me, it's Christmas everywhere
Troubles fly away and life is easy go
Does he love me good? That's all I need to know
Seems like happiness is just a thing called Joe

Does he love me good? That's all I need to know
Seems like happiness is just a thing called Joe

Little Joe, hmm hmm, little Joe, my Joe

"Happy Feet"

"Happy Feet"


Sound of rain on the window pane,
Pick some mighty sweet and soft refrain,
But I never heard a sound as sweet
As the tippity-tippity-tap of happy feet!

Mockin'bird never says a word,
But his pretty music must be heard!
Well, there is music with a beat
Of the tippity-tippity-tap of happy feet!

Honey, when we're dancin',
It's so divine!
Kinda we're much closer,
Closer than a quarter to nine!

Love that band on the Dixieland,
Gotta rhythm makes you clap your hands!
But there is a rhythm, I repeat,
Like the tippity-tippity-tap of happy feet!

Hey look at me ma, I'm dancin',
It's so divine!
Kinda we're much closer,
Closer than a quarter to nine!

Love that band on the Dixieland,
Gotta rhythm makes you clap your hands!
But there is a rhythm, I repeat,
Like the tippity-tippity-tap of happy feet!

Love that band on the Dixieland,
Gotta rhythm makes you clap your hands!
But there is a rhythm, I repeat,
Like the tippity-tippity-tap of happy feet!

Let go, watch those happy feet!
Crazy 'bout those tappy feet!
Come on, join us, listen to
The rhythm, it's the rhythm, I repeat
The rhythm of happy feet!
