"Fly Me To The Moon"

"Fly Me To The Moon"

Fly me to the moon
Let me play among the stars
Let me see what spring is like
On Jupiter and Mars
In other words, hold my hand
In other words, darling, kiss me

Fill my life with song
And let me sing for ever more
You are all I long for
All I worship and adore
In other words, please be true
In other words, I love you

Fly me to the moon
Let me play among the stars
Let me see what spring is like
On Jupiter and Mars
In other words, hold my hand
In other words, darling, kiss me

Fill my life with song
Let me sing for ever more
You are all I long for
All I worship and adore
In other words, please be true
In other words, in other words
In other words, in other words
In other words
I love... you

"Follow Me Around"

"Follow Me Around"

She always follows me from town to town at least her mem'ries follow me around
Whenever I clear my mind so she can see I feel her love come rushing into me
I know that I will never be the law looks as though her memory's bound to haunt
And I know my love will always stay in bounds
With her memory always follow me around
Follow me around follow me around follow me around follow me around
And I know my love will always stay in bounds
With her memory always following me around

[guitar]

Follow me around follow me around...
With her memory always following me around

"Fool's Paradise"
(performed with Dr. John)

"Fool's Paradise"
(performed with Dr. John)

I often think off the live I live
And it's a wonder that I ain't dead
Drinking and gambling
And staying out all night
Livin' in a fool's paradise

My mother told me, my father told me too
Someday my child, fate will catch up with you
Drinking and gambling
And staying out all night
Livin' in a fool's paradise

I though I had learned my lesson
Like all fools I have met
But there are things I've learned in this world
I'll remember to my dyin' day

My father told me, my mother said it right
Said my child, you are ruining your life
Drinking and gambling
And staying out all night
Livin' in a fool's paradise

Well I though I had learned my lesson
Like all fools I have met
But there are things I've learned in this world
I'll remember to my dyin' day

My father told me, my mother said it right
Said my child, you are ruining your life
Drinking and gambling
And staying out all night
Livin' in a fool's paradise
Livin' in a fool's paradise

"For The Good Times"

"For The Good Times"

Don't look so sad I know it's over
But life goes on and this old world will keep on turning
Let's just be glad we had some time to spend together
There's no need to watch the bridges that were burning
Lay your head upon my pillow hold your warm and tender body close to mine
Hear the whisper of the raindrops blowing soft against the window
And make believe you love me one more time for the good times
[guitar]
I'll get along you'll find another
I'll be here if you should find you ever need me
Don't say a word about tomorrow or forever
There'll be time enough for sadness when you leave me
Lay your head upon my pillow...

"Forgiving You Was Easy"

"Forgiving You Was Easy"

Forgiving you was easy, forgetting seems to take the longest time.
I just keep thinking and your memory is forever on my mind.
You know I'll always love you and I can't forget the day when you were mine.

Forgiving you was easy but forgetting seems to take the longest time.

The bitter fruit of anger growing from the seeds of jealousy.
Oh what a heart ache but I forgive the things you said to me.
For I believe forgiving is the only way I'll find peace of mind.

Forgiving you was easy but forgetting seems to take the longest time.

The years have past so quickly,
As once again they've sealed a young man's dream of all the golden years
And growing old together you and me.

You ask me to forgive you.
You said there was another on your mind,
Forgiving you was easy but forgetting seems to take the longest time....

"Four Walls"

"Four Walls"

Out where the bright lights are glowing
You're drawn like a moth to a flame
You laugh while the wine's overflowing
While I sit and whisper your name
Four walls to hear me
Four walls to see
Four walls too near me
Closing in on me

Sometimes I ask why I'm waiting
But my walls have nothing to say
I'm made for love not for hating
So here where you left I stay
Four walls to hear me
Four walls to see
Four walls too near me
Closing in on me

[guitar]

One night with you is like heaven
And so while I'm walking the floor
I listen for steps in the hallway
And wait for your knock on my door
Four walls to hear me
Four walls to see
Four walls too near me
Closing in on me

"Fraulein"

"Fraulein"

Far across deep blue water lives an old German's daughter
By the banks of the old River Rhine
Where I loved her and left her now I can't forget her I miss my pretty Fraulein
Fraulein Fraulein walk down by the river pretend that your hand's holding mine
By the same stars above you I swear that I love you you are my pretty Fraulein
[steel - fiddle]
When my memories wander away over yonder to the sweetheart that I left behind
In a moment of glory a face comes before me the face of my pretty Fraulein
Fraulein Fraulein look up toward the heavens
Each night when the stars start to shine
By the same stars above you I swear that I love you you are my pretty Fraulein

"Freight Train Boogie"

"Freight Train Boogie"

Casey Jones he was a mighty man
But now he's resting in the promised land
The kind of music he could understand
Was an eight wheel driver under his command

[Refrain:]
He made the freight train boogie
All the time
He made the freight train boogie
As he rolled down the line

When the fireman started ringing the bell
Everybody hung around to tell
Casey Jones was a coming to town, on a six
Eight wheeler that was flat on the ground

[Refrain]

"From Here To The Moon And Back"
(with Dolly Parton)

"From Here To The Moon And Back"
(with Dolly Parton)

I could hold out my arms, say "I love you this much"
I could tell you how long I will long for your touch
How much and how far would I go to prove
The depth and the breadth of my love for you?

From here to the moon and back
Who else in this world will love you like that?
Love everlasting, I promise you that
From here to the moon and back
From here to the moon and back

I want you to know you can always depend
On promises made and love without end
No need to wonder how faithful I'll be
Now and on into eternity

From here to the moon and back
Who else in this world will love you like that?
Forever and always, I'll be where you're at
From here to the moon and back
From here to the moon and back

I would blow you a kiss from the star where I sat
I would call out your name to echo through the vast
Thank heaven for you and to God, tip my hat
From here to the moon and back
And I'll spend forever just proving that fact
From here to the moon and back

"Frosty The Snowman"

"Frosty The Snowman"

Frosty the snowman was a jolly happy soul,
With a corncob pipe and a button nose
And two eyes made out of coal.
Frosty the snowman is a fairy tale, they say,
He was made of snow but the children
Know how he came to life one day.
There must have been some magic in that
Old silk hat they found.
For when they placed it on his head
He began to dance around.
O, Frosty the snowman
Was alive as he could be,
And the children say he could laugh
And play just the same as you and me.
Thumpetty thump thump,
Thumpety thump thump,
Look at Frosty go.
Thumpetty thump thump,
Thumpety thump thump,
Over the hills of snow.

Frosty the snowman knew
The sun was hot that day,
So he said, "Let's run and
We'll have some fun
Now before I melt away."
Down to the village,
With a broomstick in his hand,
Running here and there all
Around the square saying,
Catch me if you can.
He led them down the streets of town
Right to the traffic cop.
And he only paused a moment when
He heard him holler "Stop!"
For Frosty the snow man
Had to hurry on his way,
But he waved goodbye saying,
"Don't you cry,
I'll be back again some day."
Thumpetty thump thump,
Thumpety thump thump,
Look at Frosty go.
Thumpetty thump thump,
Thumpety thump thump,
Over the hills of snow.
