What A Dream

Chuck Willis

© Berkshire Music, BMI

(Dream dream dream dream dream)

Woke up this mornin' and I looked around
So disappointed I laid back down
Oh what a dream oh what a dream I had last night

Dreamed that I held you in my arms
But I'm doing for that day to come
Oh what a dream oh what a dream I had last night

Dreamed we were walking down the aisle
The organ was playing Here Comes the Bride
You looked up at me you began to smile
When I looked around everybody began to cry

I opened my eyes and you weren't there
All of my happiness just disappeared
Oh what a dream oh what a dream I had last night

Oh what a dream oh what a dream I had last night
Oh what a dream oh what a dream

Fever

John Davenport - Eddie Cooley

© Jay And Cee Music, BMI

Mhm never know how much I love you
Never know how much I care yeah
When you put your arms around me
I get a fever that's so hard to bear

You give me fever when you kiss me
Fever when you hold me tight
Fever in the morning
And fever all through the night

Sun lights up the daytime
Moon lights up the night
I light up when you call my name
Cause I know you're gonna treat me right

You give me fever when you kiss me...

Now listen to me baby
And hear every word I say
No one can love you like I do
Cause they don't know how to love you my way

You give me fever yeah when you kiss me...

Well now you've heard my story
Here's the point that I have made
Chicks were born to give you fever
Bring it Fahrenheit or centigrade

They give you fever yeah when you kiss 'em
Fever when you live and learn
Fever oh till you sizzle
What a lovely way to burn

What a lovely way to burn
Fever gonna make you burn

It's Too Late

Chuck Willis

© Unichappell Music, BMI

It's too late she's gone
It's too late my baby's gone
Wish I had told her she was my only one
Lord it's too late she's gone

It's a weak man who cries
So I guess I better dry my eyes
Guess I will miss her more than anyone
But it's too late she's gone

She's gone oh my baby's gone
She's gone my baby's gone
She's gone yes she's gone
Oh where where can my baby be

I wonder wonder does she know
When she loved me oh it hurt me so
I need your loving please don't make me wait
And tell me it's not too late
[ strings ]
I need your loving please don't make me wait
And tell me it's not too late

Looking Back

Clyde Otis - Brook Benton - Belford Hendricks

© Eden Music, BMI

Looking back over my life
I can see where where I caused you strife
But I know oh yes I know
I'd never make that same mistake again

Looking back over my deeds
I can see signs that a wise man heeds
Oh if I had just one more chance
I know I'd never make that same mistake again

Once my cup was overflowing
But I I gave nothing in return
But I can I can begin to tell you
What a lesson what a lesson I've learned

Looking back over the slate
I can see love as it turn to hate
But I know oh yes I know
I know I'd never I'd never make that same mistake again

I Almost Lost My Mind

Ivory Joe Hunter

© Hill And Range Songs, BMI

When I lost my baby I almost lost my mind
When I lost my baby I almost lost my mind
My head's been in a spin since she left me behind

I went to see the gypsy to have my fortune read
I went to see the gypsy to have my fortune read
I hung my head in sorrow when she said what she said

Well I can tell you people the news was not so good
I can you people the news was not so good
This time your baby's left you and this time she's gone for good

She said this time your baby's left you
And buddy this time she's gone for good
