DAY DREAMIN'

(William A. Cantrell - Quinton Claunch - Bud Deckelman) « © '55 Philtac Music, BMI »
You're the sweetest daydream that I've ever known
I keep you on my mind the whole day thought
If I can't hold you in my arms I'll hold you in my heart
Until that lovely daydream can come true

Day dreamin' with you on my mind thinking bout you waitin' for the time
When my arms can hold you and I'll make you mine just day dreamin' all the time
[ guitar ] I gazed into my daydream a picture came to me
No scene with color splendor could compare
But I would nestle in your arms a baby on the floor
Sweet music from heaven fill the air

Day dreamin' with you on my mind...

I WANNA WALTZ

(Thelma Blackmon) « © '58 Acuff-Rose Music, BMI »
Well we used to waltz that go out dancin' now you look like a cat a prancin'
I just stand with you at the floor while you swing out I holler for more
I wanna waltz but I can't waltz without you I'd be so blue

Well you gotta bop and you ain't happy till they play you somethin' snappy
All you wanna do is go cat go all I wanna do is slow down slow
I wanna waltz but I can't waltz without you I'd be so blue
[ guitar ] I jig on the stand while the bop keeps a goin'
With the music stuff you're poppin' and a blowin'
Looks like somethin' spite in you but you cut loose and be bop a loo
I wanna waltz but I can't waltz without you I'd be so blue

Well you gotta bop and you ain't happy...

HEARTBREAK AHEAD

(Dorothy S. Brown) « © '58 Acuff-Rose Music, BMI »
A gypsy fortune teller in a gay market place
Saw in her crystal ball a young girl stricken face
Saw it was another woman and a man who were wed
She said turn back my childhood there's heartbreak ahead

Heartbreak ahead the roadway is dark
You're paying for what started out as a luck
You're young your dreams are broken your heart it's not glad
You can't run away from this heartbreak ahead

The girl cried oh kind gypsy you have opened my heart
I love him he loves me we can't bear to part
I tried to give him up when I found he was wed
There's nothing for me now but heartbreak ahead

The gypsy said my child you give up shame and disgrace
Give him up or the world will soon laugh in your face
You can't break up a home of a man who is wed
Without causing more sorrow and heartbreak ahead

Heartbreak ahead and you're both to blame
But it's not too late child to turn back from shame
But love without honor is love that it's dead
And time will soon heal your heartbreak ahead

MAKING BELIEVE

(Jimmy Work) « © '54 Acuff-Rose Music, BMI »
Making believe that you still love me it's leaving me alone and so blue
I'll always dream but I'll never own you making believe is all I can do

I can't hold you close darling when you're not with me
You're somebody's love you'll never be mine
Making believe I'll spend my lifetime loving you and making believe
[ guitar ] I can't hold you close...

HERE WE ARE AGAIN

(Don Everly) « © '58 Athens Music, BMI »
Just when I think I've forgotten you and our cheating love's at an end
I vowed to myself I'll see you no more but here we are again

That dimly cafe where I first met you
Slowly has turned into our secret randezvous
Our vows belong to others that makes our love unfair
But I just can't seem to find a way to end our love affair

Just when I think I've forgotten you...
[ guitar ] Just when I think I've forgotten you...

JUST CALL ME LONESOME

(Rex Griffin) « © '53 Anne Rachel Music, ASCAP »
Why must I love a heartless one who'll never know the harm he's done
Though love is blind I should have known just call me lonesome from now on

I climb the stairs up to my room but no one meets me in my gloom
The silence tells me he is gone just call me lonesome from now on
[ guitar ] I pray these memories at last will fade into the distant past
What good is life if you live alone just call me lonesome from now on

These walls will hide me when I cry and pray that heaven lets me die
If I must live and love alone just call me lonesome from now on

LET ME GO LOVER

(Jenny Lou Carson - Al Hill) « © '54 Unichappell Music, BMI / Pamasons Publishing, BMI »
Oh let me go let me go let me go lover
Let me be set me free from your spell
You made me weak cut me deep I can't sleep lover
I was cursed from the first day I fell

Oh you don't want me but you want me to go on wanting you
How I pray that you will say that we're through
Oh turn me loose what's the use let me go lover
Let me go let me go let me go
[ piano ] Oh you don't want me...

MONEY HONEY

(Jesse Stone) « © '56 Walden Music, ASCAP »
You know the landlord that rings my frontdoor bell
I let him ring for a long long spell
I went to the window I peeped through the blind
And asked him to tell me what was on his mind
He said money honey uh huh money honey
Money honey if you wanna stay here with me

I screamed and I hollered I was so hard pressed
I called the man that I love the best
I find he got my baby bout half past three
He said I'd like to know what you want with me
I said money honey oh oh money honey
Money honey if you wanna get along with me money honey
[ guitar ] I screamed and I hollered I was so hard pressed
I called the man that I love the best
I said tell me baby face to face
How could another woman take my place
I said money honey oh oh money honey
Money honey if you wanna get along with me

Now I've learned my lesson and now I know
The sun may shine and the winds may blow
The men may come the men may go
But before I'll say I love 'em so
I'm gonna say money honey uh huh money honey
Money honey if you wanna get along with me

I CAN'T MAKE MY DREAMS UNDERSTAND

(Buck Bryant - James West) « © '58 Cedarwood Publishing, BMI »
I kiss him goodnight and tell him I love him then I keep my rendezvous
Knowing that when I go to sleep I'm gonna dream about you

I can't make my dreams understand that it's wrong
To dream about you when with him I belong
I've made vows to God and I've made vows to man
But I just can't make my dreams understand
[ guitar ] My fingers are crossed when I say I'm happy but lying just don't make it right
And each night when I go to sleep I dream you are holding me tight

I can't make my dreams understand...

HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY BABY

(Gilbert Lopez - Margo Sylvia) « © '56 Arc Music, BMI »
Happy happy birthday baby although you're with somebody new
God I'd drop a line to say that I wish this happy day would find me beside you
Happy happy birthday baby no I can't call you my baby
Seems like years ago we met on a day I can't forget cause that's when we fell in love

Do you remember the names we had for each other
I was your pretty you were my baby how we could say goodbye
Hope I didn't spoil your birthday I'm not acting like a lady
So I'll close this note to you with good luck and wishes too
Happy happy birthday baby

Do you remember the names...

LET'S HAVE A PARTY

(Jessie Mae Robinson) « © '58 Unart Catalog, BMI »
Some people like to rock some people like to roll
But movin' and a groovin' gonna satisfy my soul
Let's have a party ooh let's have a party
Oh send it to the store let's buy some more let's have a party tonight

I never kissed a bear I never kissed a goon
But I can shake a chicken in the middle of the room
Let's have a party ooh let's have a party
Oh send it to the store let's buy some more let's have a party tonight
[ piano ] I never kissed a bear...

Honky Tonky Joe is knockin' at the door
Bring him in and fill him up and set him on the floor
Let's have a party ooh let's have a party
Oh send it to the store let's buy some more let's have a party tonight

I feel it in my leg I feel it in my shoe
Tell me purty baby if you think you feel it too
Let's have a party ooh let's have a party
Oh send it to the store let's buy some more let's have a party tonight
Let's have a party tonight let's have a party tonight
