"Please Don't Drive Me Away"

"Please Don't Drive Me Away"




Baby, please
Don't you drive me away
Baby, please
Don't you drive me away

Now, you know I want you, need you by my side
My love for you I'll never hide
Now, if you love me you will hear my plea
Put me out and that's the end of me
Baby, please
Don't you drive me away

One more thing, honey
You know I want you, I love you so
I'll never, never, never, never, never let you go

Baby, please
Don't you drive me away

Oh, yeah
Oh, please
Please don't you drive me away
Don't you hear me telling you
Oh, don't you drive me away

Let me tell you
You know I need you, want you by my side
My love for you I'll never hide
If you love me, won't you hear my plea
Put me out and that's the end of me

Baby, please
Don't you drive me away

"Pray"

"Pray"



O pray when you're feeling low
when the ill wind blows
don't forget to pray

pray when you go to bed
for your daily bread
don't forget to pray

you can awake to beautiful morning
when you got troubles remember this warning
and pray until judgement day
God the devil to pay
if you never pray

pray, lalalalala
pray, lalalalala

you can awake to beautiful morning
when you got troubles remember this warning
and pray until judgement day
God the devil to pay
if you never pray

if you'd only pray

"Rome (Wasn't Built In A Day)"

"Rome (Wasn't Built In A Day)"



Don't, honey don't, go away, no no
Don't you hear, don't you hear,
What I say, what I say
Give me time, give me time
I'm gonna make your love as strong as mine
But I know Rome wasn't built in a day

Now, you know that I love you dear with all my heart
I know that you didn't love me from the start
But I planted a lil' seed in your heart I know
And it just needs time to grow, baby

Don't, honey don't, go away, no no
Don't you hear, don't you hear,
What I say, what I say
Give me time, give me time
I'm gonna make your love as strong as mine
But I know Rome wasn't built in a day
Listen to me honey now

How would Romeo feel if his Juliet
Had turned down his advances and played hard to get
He wouldn't have let this bother him, this I know
Because where there's light there's hope
Oh!

Baby, don't go away, no no
Don't you hear now, don't you hear now,
What I say, what I say
Give me time, give me time
I'm gonna make your love as strong as mine
But I know Rome wasn't built in a day

Don't you hear me telling you that
Rome wasn't built in a day
Don't you realize that
Rome wasn't built in a day

"Running Wild"

"Running Wild"


No girl will ever make a fool of me
No girl, I mean just what I say
I'm not the simpleton I used to be
Wonder how I got that way

I'm running wild, I've lost control
Running wild, mighty bold
Feeling gay, reckless too
Every mile all the time, never blue
Always going don't go there
Always showing I don't care
Don't love nobody, it's not worthwhile
I'm all alone, running wild
[repeat verse]

"Sad Mood"

"Sad Mood"



I'm in a sad mood tonight
Oh I'm in a sad mood
I'm in a sad mood tonight
Oh my baby done gone away and left me
My baby done gone yeah
My baby done gone away and left me
My baby done gone

I don't know why she left me
I don't know where shes gone
All I know is that I'll never be happy
Until my baby comes back home yeah

I'm in a sad mood tonight
Oh I'm in a sad mood
I'm in a sad mood tonight
Oh my baby done gone away and left me
My baby done gone yeah
My baby done gone away and left me
My baby done gone

I don't know why she left me
But this one thing I know
That if my baby tells me that she'll come back home
I'll never, ever do it no more yeah

I'm in a sad mood tonight
Oh I'm in a sad mood
I'm in a sad mood tonight
Oh my baby done gone away and left me
My baby done gone yeah
My baby done gone away and left me
My baby done gone...

"Secret Love"

"Secret Love"



Once I had a secret love
that lived within the heart of me
All too soon my secret love
became impatient to be free
So I told a friendly star
the way that dreamers often do
Just how wonderful you are
and why I'm so in love with you
Now I shouted from the highest hill
Even told the golden daffodils
At last my heart's an open door
And my secret love's no secret any more
At last my heart's an open door
And my secret love's no secret any more

"Send Me Some Lovin'"

"Send Me Some Lovin'"



Send me some lovin'
Oh send it I pray
How can I love you
When you're far away?

Send me your picture
Send it my dear
So I can hold it
Pretend you are here

Can you send me your kisses?
I still feel their touch
I need you so badly
I miss you so much

My days are so lonely
My nights are so blue
I'm here and I'm lonely
I'm waitin' for you

"Shake"

"Shake"



Shake!

Listen while I talk to you

There's a new thing that's going around
And I'll tell you what they're puttin' down

Just move your body all around
And just shake
Oh, mamma
Shake
Thats the way to do it
Shake
Oh, you're looking good now

"Shake Rattle And Roll"

"Shake Rattle And Roll"



Get out of that bed, go wash your face and hands
Get out of that bed, go wash your face and hands
Get into that kitchen make some noise with the pots and pans
And all you're wearing them dresses the sun come shining through

"She's Funny That Way"

"She's Funny That Way"



Not much to look at, nothing to see
I'm glad I'm living, and I'm lucky to be
But I got a woman crazy 'bout me
She's funny that way

ain't got a dollar, can't save a cent
She never holler, she'd live in a tent
I've got that woman mad about me
She's funny that way

Though she loves to work and slave for me every day
She'd be so much better off if I went away

But why should I leave her?, Why should I go?
She'd be unhappy without me I know
I've got that woman crazy 'bout me
She's funny that way

I've got that woman mad about me

she's funny that way
