"Fancy Passes"

"Fancy Passes"


Money isn't everything
As anyone who's rich
It can buy pain and misery
Or grief

Though money isn't everything
I have a pauper's itch
So though I crave a brave
Yes
I'll take the chief!

He bought me a cat
Siamese, imagine that
He keeps making
Fancy passes at me
All those fine and fancy passes

Oh joy, now I've got
Sixty feet of brand new yacht
He keeps making
Fancy passes at me
All those fine and fancy passes

He owns New York or Spain
But I don't know which
He got fat in Uptown Manhattan
Poor Cinderella's got her a fella who's rich
Every penny, he's worth a plenty

He owns United Airlines
That as well?
He owns receding hairlines
Oh, well!
He's not so hip
Or smart as a whip
But healthy, wise and wealthy

He bought me a summer place
Somewhere out in outer space
He keeps making
Fancy passes at me

What a man you've got, Diane
Did he buy you a mink?
Mmmm..Passion pink
And a Cadi too?
Mmmm, Baby blue
You're speaking of?
My baby love!
Your Romeo?
My Daddy Dough!
I love him a lot
How much has he got?

He's got a plot of ground
He found over oil
Oh, my how chic we are
He bought New Jersey
So he could call me his girl
Oh, man, a feat we are!

Chocolate excites my tummy
Ooh
He bought me a firm called Yummy
So
He's one of those gents
With good bizness cents
And quarters, half's and dollars

Ding, dong, ain't it swell
They just delivered the liberty bell
How sad all those Philadelphians will be

I'll get half of what he owns
To keep up with Mrs. L. B. Jones
And if he keeps making fancy passes
I'll start holding evening classes

I'll give him sugar and molasses
And the life, I live
I'll live luxuriously
From those late and evening classes
That sugar and molasses
Those fine and fancy passes at me
Oooweee
My honey
Yeah!

Say it again.

Say it again.

"Funny How Time Slips Away"
(originally by Willie Nelson)



Well, hello there
My, it's been a long, long time
How am I doing ?
Oh, I guess that I'm doing fine
It's been so long now
But it seems like only yesterday

Gee, ain't it funny
How time slips away

How's your new love ?
I hope that she's doing fine
I heard you told her
That you'd love her 'till the end of time
Now that's the same thing
You told me
Seems like the other day

Gee, ain't it funny
How time slips away

Well it's been nice seeing you
Gotta go now
Guess I'll see you around
Don't know when tho'
Never know when I'll be back in town
But remember
What I tell you
In time you're gonna pay

Gee, ain't it funny
How time slips away

"Going Down For The Third Time"

"Going Down For The Third Time"


Save me! Save me, save me!
Save me! Save me, save me!

I'm going down, down for the third time
I'm going down, down for the third time
Drowning in tears from my heart that's hurting
Drowning in tears from a love that's uncertain.

I'm lost in a world without love, a sea of emptiness
The love we knew is being washed away
Don't think I can last, my heart is sinking fast.

I'm going down, down for the third time
Trying to hold on to a love that's mine
Drowning in the love that keeps me grieving
Drowning in the fear that my arms you're leaving.

Bring back that love we knew
Darling let me live again
A little tenderness to me start showing
Fill my heart with love till it's overflowing.

I'm going down, down for the third time
Trying to hold on to a love that's gone
I'm going down, down for the third time
So won't you save this heart of mine?

Going down, down for the third time
Going down, down for the third time
I'm like a ship all alone on a raging sea
You got me tossing and a-turning
And I can't get free.

Reach out your hand for me
Darling, save what's left of our love
I'll forgive your lies and alibi's
If you'll wipe my crying eyes.

I'm going down, down for the third time
So won't you save this heart of mine?
I've loved too long, I love too strong
Now little boy you know you're doing me wrong
Come on and save me
Come on and save me
Come on and save me
I'm going down, down for the third time.

"Havin' A Party"
(originally by Sam Cooke)

"Havin' A Party"
(originally by Sam Cooke)



We are having a party
Dancing to the music
Played by the D.J.
On the radio

The cokes are in the ice box
Popcorn's on the table
Me and my baby
We're out here on the floor

So mister, mister D.J.
Keep those records playing
'Cause we're having such a good time
Dancing with my baby

Havin' a party
Everybody's swinging, dancing to the music
On the radio

We are havin' a party
Everybody's swinging, dancing to the music
On the radio

So mister, mister D.J.
Keep those records playing
'Cause we're having such a good time
Dancing with my baby

Sally's doing that twist
If you take requests
I've got a few for you
Play that song called "Shot gun"
Play that one called "My girl"
Don't forget them
No other song will do

"He Holds His Own"

"He Holds His Own"


Say what you will about him
You'll never make me doubt him
He means the world to me
His love is all I need
Wealth he doesn't have
But he holds his own

Say what you will about him
But I can't live without him
It makes my life worthwhile
Watching his tender smile

Handsome he may not be
But he holds his own
He holds his own

Say what you will about him
You'll never make me doubt him
Though he's a soft spoken guy
A little quiet, a little shy
He has qualities
'Cause he holds his own
He holds his own
He holds his own

Say what you will about him
He holds his own
You'll never make me doubt him
He holds his own

 

[fox69]

"He Means The World To Me"

"He Means The World To Me"


If he'd just take one look at me
Or maybe touch my hand
I'd bow down and tell him
His every wish is my command

My nights are so lonely
I'm thinking of him only
Oh how can I make him see
He means the world to me

My friends all tell me that I'm silly
That my love for him he'll never see
But I, I can't help it
He means the world to me

He means the world to me
World to me
My friends say I'm silly, silly, silly
But I really care
I'm here to tell you
That he means the world
I really care

"He's All I Got"

"He's All I Got"


You're a girl that hates to see others happy
Unless you're happy too
So you've told the boy I love
A lot of things that ain't true

And its' wringing my heart
Cos it's making us drift apart
So humbly I ask of you
To undo the wrong that you've done

Please go to him, tell him
Before he finds someone new
Cos if I ever lose him
I don't know what I'll do

Cos he's all I got
Built my world around him
Since the day I found him

Girl your selfishness causes unhappiness
But why make it hard for me?
Since you been unhappy in love
I guess misery loves company

For once in your life
Consider another's feelings
Confess the truth
That you've been concealing

Please go to him, tell him
Before he finds someone new
Cos if I ever lose him
I don't know what I'll do

Cos he's all I got
Built my world around him
Since the day found him

I would gladly go to him
Instead of asking you
But there might be a shadow of a doubt
Your gossip might have been true

So tearfully I ask of you
Please undo the wrong that you've done
Cos without his love
I know, I know I can't go on

Please go to him, tell him
Before he finds someone new
Cos if I ever lose him
I don't know what I'll do

Cos he's all I got
Built my world around him
Since the day found him
Can't bear to lose him
