"Down On The Farm"

"Down On The Farm"



You might think, I'm a crazy fool
But I saw a horse doin' the bop with a mule
Down on the farm, down on the farm
Down on the farm, rock 'n' roll is takin' over my barn

The rooster won't crow, chicken won't cluck
Running 'round the barnyard, doin' the hucklebuck
Down on the farm, down on the farm
Down on the farm, rock 'n' roll is takin' over my barn

Lazy dog, crazy pig
All they wanna do is a rock 'n' roll dig
Down on the farm, down on the farm
Down on the farm, rock 'n' roll is takin' over my barn

The rooster won't crow, chicken won't cluck
Running 'round the barnyard, doin' the hucklebuck
Down on the farm, down on the farm
Down on the farm, rock 'n' roll is takin' over my barn

"Drinking Wine Spo-Dee-O-Dee"

"Drinking Wine Spo-Dee-O-Dee"



Well down in New Orleans where everything's fine
All them cats is drinkin' that wine
Drinkin' that mess with delight
An' when they get drunk they fight all night

Drinkin' wine spo-dee-o-dee, wine bop-bop
Wine spo-dee-o-dee, drinkin' wine
Drinkin' wine spo-dee-o-dee, pass that bottle to me

Well I got a nickel, have you got a dime
Let's get together and buy a little wine
Some by the fifth, some by the quart
When you buy sherry, you're doin' things smart

Drinkin' wine spo-dee-o-dee, wine bop-bop
Wine spo-dee-o-dee, drinkin' wine
Drinkin' wine spo-dee-o-dee, pass that bottle to me

Well, wine-wine-wine, ooh, wine-wine-wine
Yeah, wine-wine-wine, ooh, wine-wine-wine
Ooh down in New Orleans, pass that bottle to me
Drinkin' that mess with delight
An' when they get drunk they fight all night
Knockin' down windows, bang down doors
Drinkin' half a gallon an' then holler for more

"Endless Sleep"

"Endless Sleep"



The night was black, rain falling down
Looked for my baby, she's nowhere around
Traced her footsteps down to the shore
Afraid she's gone forever more
I looked at the sea and it seemed to say
I took your baby from you away
I heard her voice crying in the deep
Come join me baby in my endless sleep

Why did we quarrel, why did we fight
Why did I leave her alone tonight
That's why her footsteps ran into the sea
That's why my baby has gone from me
I looked at the sea and it seemed to say
I took your baby from you away
I heard her voice crying in the deep
Come join me baby in my endless sleep

Ran in the water, heart full of fear
There in the breaker I saw her near
Reached for my darling, held her to me
Stole her away from the angry sea
I looked at the sea and it seemed to say
You took your baby from you away
My heart cried out, she's mine to keep
I saved my baby from an endless sleep
Endless sleep
Endless sleep
Endless sleep

"Evil Hearted Ada"

"Evil Hearted Ada"



She's my lover
You know, she's my friend
Well she's my baby, she's a hen
But she's sassy, and she's sly
I love evil hearted Ada
I love evil hearted Ada
I love evil hearted Ada
Till I die
She's a ruby, she's a plumb
She's an emerald, she's a girl
She always gives me money to spend
I love evil hearted Ada
I love evil hearted Ada
I love evil hearted Ada
Till The End

She can open up your eyes
She can open up a door
Don't let her take you by surprise
She can pull away the floor

Don't need money, unh-uh
You know I don't need fame
For I'm a rich man, that's right
Just the same
Got me a big piece..of the sky
I love evil hearted Ada
I love evil hearted Ada
Evil hearted Ada till I die

"Fire"

"Fire"



I'm drivin' in my car, you turn on the radio
I'm pullin' you close, but you just say no
You say you don't like it, but girl I know you're a liar
'Cause when we kiss, ooh, fire

Well, late at night, I chase you home
I say I wanna stay, you say you wanna be alone
You say you don't need me, but you can't hide your desire
'Cause when we kiss, ooh, fire

You've had a hold on me right from the start
It felt so good, I couldn't tear it apart
Got my nerves all jumpin', actin' like a fool
'Cause your kisses they burn, but your heart stays cool

Romeo and Juliet, Samson and Delilah
Baby, you can bet the love they couldn't deny
Well, now your words say split, but your words they lie
'Cause when we kiss, ooh, fire

Oh-oh, fire
Mm-mm, fire
Oh-oh, fire
Oh-oh, fire

"Flying Saucers"

"Flying Saucers"



Well, the news of the saucer been a-flyin' around
I'm the only one that seen it on the ground
First thing I seen when I saw it land
Cats jumped out and they formed a band

Flyin' saucer rock and roll, flyin' saucer rock and roll
I couldn't understand the things they said
But that crazy beat just a stopped me dead

Well the little green men, they were real hep-cats
Rockin' and rollin' doin' their crazy flats
They brought out a sax and they started to blow
They brought out the drums and they started to roll

Flyin' saucer rock and roll, flyin' saucer rock and roll
I couldn't understand the things they said
But that crazy beat just a stopped me dead

Well, I come out a-hidin' and I started to rock
Little green men tought me how to do the bop
They were three foot high, hit a few bars
Started rock and roll al the way from mars

Flyin' saucer rock and roll, flyin' saucer rock and roll
I couldn't understand the things they said
But that crazy beat just a stopped me dead

"Forever You"

"Forever You"



If I could make a wish come true
You'de always love me the way you do
You'de never leave me, and when my life is though
There'd be nothing I'de miss
Cause heaven must be like this
Forever you

Safe in my arms
You'de always be
Not just a lifetime, but eternally
If we had true love, there's nothing we can do
I don't need to wish twice
There's only one paradise
Forever you

Why should I wish for the stars
The stars are in you eyes oh blue
My wish will be forever you

So whatever happens for this I'm sure
We'll be together for ever more
That's what I'm wishing, and if my dreams come true
There'll be forever me, and my forever will be
Forever you

Why should I wish for the stars
The stars are in you eyes oh blue
My wish will be forever you

So whatever happens for this I'm sure
We'll be together for ever more
That's what I'm wishing, and if my dreams come true
There'll be forever me, and my forever will be
Forever you
Forever you
Forever you
Forever you
