Richard Supa

I see you every day walking down the avenue
I'd like to get to know you but all I do is smile at you
Oh baby when it comes to talking my tongue get so tight
This sidewalk love affair has got me high as a kite
Yeah yeah there's something 'bout you baby I like

Well I'm a slow walker but girl I'd race a mile for you
Just to get back in time for my peek a boo rendezvous
Well baby maybe it's the way you wear you're blue jeans so tight
I can't put my finger on what you're doing right

Yeah yeah there's something bout you baby I like
Yeah yeah there's something bout you baby I like

Well I'm standing on a corner smiling by a telephone
I'd like to check you over get to know you with a fine tooth comb
Oh baby when I get home I turn out the light
And then you come a strolling through
My dreams every night

Yeah yeah there's something bout you baby I like
Yeah yeah there's something bout you baby I like

Till I Get It Right

Red Lane - Larry Henley

© Tree Pub, BMI

I'll just keep on falling in love till I get it right
Right now I'm like a wounded bird hungry for the sky
But if I try my wings and try long enough I'm bound to learn to fly
So I'll just keep on falling in love till I get it right

My door to love has opened out more times than in
I'm either fool or wise enough to open it again
For I'll never know what's beyond that mountain till I reach the other side
So I'll just keep on falling in love till I get it right

If practice makes perfect
Then I'm near bout as perfect as I'll ever be in my life
So I'll just keep on falling in love till I get it right

Jerry West - James Moore

© Excellorec Music, BMI

Rainin' in my heart since we've been apart
I know I was wrong darling please come on home

You got me cryin' about to lose my mind
Don't let me cry in vain try my love just once again
[ instrumental ]
Now honey I need your love and darling you know why
So if you just come on back home there'd be no need for me and cry

Rainin' in my heart since we've been apart
I know I was wrong darling please come on home
Rainin' in my heart

It Never Hurts To Be Nice To Somebody

Michael McGinnis

© Carlin Music, BMI

It never hurts to be nice to somebody oh no
It never hurts to be nice to someone
It never hurts to be nice to somebody oh no

And you know I love you love you love you baby
Baby please tell me when are you coming home
You know I love you love you love you baby
Baby please tell me when are you coming home

I sit alone along about midnight
And my lamp is burning low yes it is
Little darling you know I'm so uptight
I'm just wondering where did you go

My love is burning my heart is yearning for your returning
And you know I love you love you love you baby
Baby please tell me when are you coming home
Because I love you love you love you baby
Baby please tell me when are you coming home

Little darling you know that I've always tried yes I will
Just to keep you happy just to keep you satisfied woman

You ought to believe me you know that you grieve me baby
Why did you leave me
Oh yes I love you love you love you baby
Baby please tell me when are you coming home

It never hurts to be nice to somebody oh no

Oh you know I love you love you love you baby
Baby please tell me when are you coming home...

Make Believe World

Tony Macaulay

© Mustard Music, BMI

Maybe I should make it clear
The man you've seen left standing here
Has just changed a new kind of me
And I don't wait in case you call
No I don't seem to care it all
Now I can't forget about you at night

But sometimes I can't fight
when I must I can't help just

Reaching out to touch you as though you are near me
I need you now you're much too far out to hear me
I must let love die I must try but I can't help just
Calling out I miss you as though you still listen
And I pretend to kiss you with eyes that still glisten
You still hold me tight in a make believe world of the night

You think you couldn't matter less to see my mass of hopelessness
I played a part and each line is right

But sometimes I can't fight
when I must I can't help just

Reaching out to touch you as though you are near me
I need you now you're much too far out to hear me
I must let love die I must try but I can't help just
Calling out I miss you as though you still listen
And I pretend to kiss you with eyes that still glisten
You still hold me tight in a make believe world of the night

Reaching out to touch you as though you are near me
I need you now you're much too far out to hear me
I must let love die I must try but I can't help just
Calling out I miss you as though you still listen
And I pretend to kiss you with eyes that still glisten
You still hold me tight in a make believe world of the night

Sing For The Good Times

Ron Fraser

© ATV Songs, BMI

The time has come to wish you well
To say our last goodbye
With friends like you in my memories
I'll smile when I die

The time has passed so quickly now
That it seems like yesterday
So here's a song to remember me
And sing on your way

Sing for the good times cry for the sad
But just remember all the good times we've had

Sing for the good times and cry for the sad
But just remember all the good times we've had

But when my life starts to run me down
And my days are gettin' few
I'll turn back to my memories
And I'll think of only you

So take good care of the times we've had
And they'll be there till when
You bring back your memories
And I bring back a friend

Sing for the good times and cry for the sad
But just remember all the good times we've had

Sing for the good times
And cry for the sad
But just remember
I want you to remember
But just remember
All the good times we've had

Why don't you sing for the good times
And cry for the sad
But just remember
All the good times we've had

Right Place Wrong Time

Mac Rebennack

© WB Music, ASCAP

I been in the right place
But it must have been the wrong time
I'd of said the right thing
But I must have used the wrong line
I been in the right trip
But I must have used the wrong car
My head was in a bad place
And I'm wondering what it's good for

I been the right place
But it must have been the wrong time
My head was in a place
But I'm having such a good time
I been running trying to get hung up in my mind
Got to give myself a little talking to this time

Just need a little brain salad surgery
Got to cure this insecurity
I been in the wrong place
But it must have been the right time
I been in the right place
But it must have been the wrong song
I been in the right vein

But it seems like the wrong arm
I been in the right world
But it seems wrong wrong wrong wrong wrong

Slipping dodging sneaking
Creeping hiding out down the street
See me life shaking with every who I meet
Refried confusion is making itself clear
Wonder which way do I go to get on out of here

I been in the right place
But it must have been the wrong time
I'd have said the right thing
But I must have used the wrong line
I'd a took the right road
But I must have took a wrong turn
Would have made the right move
But I made it at the wrong time
I been on the right road
But I must have used the wrong car
My head was in a good place
And I wonder what it's bad for
