"Let's Go Steady Again"

"Let's Go Steady Again"



You left me for a new love
You found out it wasn't a true love
Now that he is gone
Lets go steady one more time

Please don't cry
You've got to be strong, dear
I know he was wrong, dear
But now that he's gone

I know he was wrong to come to the dance
With another girl, the way that he did
I knew he was wrong when he took your love from me
After all, he was once my best friend

Thats all in the past
Let's forget you
He'll never hurt you
I won't let him
Now that he's gone
Let's go steady one more time

Yes he was wrong to come to the dance
With another girl, the way that he did
I knew he was wrong when he took your love from me
After all, he was once my best friend

Thats all in the past
Let's forget him
He'll never hurt you
I won't let him
Now that he's gone
Let's go steady one more time

"Little Girl"

"Little Girl"



Little girl
You're the one girl for me
Little girl
You're as sweet as can be

Just a glance at you meant
Love from the start
And oh, what a thrill came
Into my heart

Little girl
With your cute little ways
I am yours
For the rest of my days

And this great big world
Will be divine
Little girl
When you are mine, oh mine, yeah

And this great big world
Will be divine
Little girl
When you're mine, oh mine

"Little Girl Blue"

"Little Girl Blue"



No use old girl
You might as well surrender
Your hope is getting slender
Why won't somebody send a tender blue boy
To cheer up little girl blue

Sit there and count your fingers
What can you do?
Old girl you're through
So sit there and count your little fingers
Unlucky little girl blue, whoa

Sit there and count the raindrops falling on you
It's time you knew
That all, all you count is the raindrops
That's falling on
Little blue girl

No use old girl
You might as well surrender
Your hope is getting slender
Why won't somebody send a tender blue boy
To cheer up little girl blue

"Little Red Rooster"

"Little Red Rooster"



I'm a little red rooster,
Too lazy to crow for day
I'm a little red rooster,
Too lazy to crow for day
Keep everything in the barnyard,
Upset in every way

Dogs begin to bark now,
And the hounds begin to howl
Dogs begin to bark now,
And the hounds begin to howl
Watch out stray cat,
The little red rooster's on the prowl

If you see the little red rooster
Won't you please drive him home
If you see the little red rooster
Won't you please drive him home
Been no peace in the barnyard
Since that little red rooster's been gone

I'm a little red rooster,
Too lazy to crow for day
I'm a little red rooster,
Too lazy to crow for day
Keep everything in the barnyard,
Upset in every way

"Little Things You Do"

"Little Things You Do"



Love without devotion
can never be true
You can show emotion
in the little things you do
Words when kindly spoken
can make dreams seem true
But more than words can say
are the little things you do
(the little things you do)

A tender touch can mean so much
A card, a letter when away
Each little smile is so worthwhile
to show affection each day
Love can be so tender and always be true
But love must have assurance
by those little things you do
(Love must have assurance and you can make it true)
By the little tings you do

"London By Night"

"London By Night"



London by night is a wonderful sight
there is magic a brawl in the air
I'm often told that the street turn to gold
when the moon shines on circus and square
deep in the dark that envelops the park
there's a man and his cigarette's low
down by the Thames, lights that sparkle like gems
seem to wink at each girl and her boy

up comes the moon when the city's asleep
he's not alone for it sings
somewhere up there stands an angel to keep her watch
while each Londener dreams

my love and I saw the sun leave the sky
then we kissed in the fast fading light
most people say they love London by day
but lovers love London by night

most people they love London by day
but lovers love London by night

"Lonely Island"

"Lonely Island"



I live on a lonely island in the heart of the city
I live on a lonely island there isn't any hope for me
I tell you my heart is broken, it's a shame have pity
I might as well be shipwrecked in the middle of the sea

Nobody will believe me
Nobody seems to care
How lonely, how lonely can you be
I walk around the city
My heart sends out a flare
Baby, baby, baby won't you rescue me

"Long, Long Ago"

"Long, Long Ago"


Tell me the tales that to me were so dear
and sing me the songs I delighted to hear

Now you are come all my grieve is removed
let me forget that so long you have roved
let me believe that you love as you loved

and now do you remember the path where we met
yeah you told me you never would forget

then to all others my smile you preferred
love when you spoke gave a charm to each word
still my heart treasures the praises I heard

though by your kindness my fond hopes were raised
I know you've by more eloquent lips have been praised
but by long absence your truth has been tried
still to your accents I listened with pride
blessed as I was when I set by your side
long, long ago
long ago

"Lost And Lookin'"

"Lost And Lookin'"



I'm lost and lookin' for my baby
Wonder why my baby can't be found
I'm lost and lookin' for my baby
Lord knows my baby ain't around

So I'm lost and lookin' for my baby
Wonder why my baby can't be found
Lost and searching for my baby
Lord knows my baby ain't around

Crying for my baby
Crying all alone
Calling for you
Come home, come home

I'm lost and a-calling for my baby
Baby, won't you please come home
I'm lost and a-calling for my baby
I need you 'cause I'm so alone
