"My Love Went To London"

Thank the Lord I am here at last
Now I found London Town
Never thought I'd live to see
The city on the Thames

Where's that sky of grey
Where's that foggy day
The gust winds had their say
But now I'm here to tell you

My love went to London
And left me behind
I'm going to London
And I'll find her

Piccadilly Circus
Come meet her
Or I'll rush right up to her
And lovingly I'll greet her

My love went to London
I'm missing her so
I'm going to London
Where my love is

Tomorrow I'll roam around
Old fabulous London Town
I'll search every face I see around me
Until I hold London in my arms

Tomorrow I'll roam around
Old fabulous London Town
I'll search every face I see around me
Until I hold London in my arms

"My Mom"

I've got one real friend more than a friend I find
The way I feel friend, she's all of this heart of mine
I'm all for her I know she'll always be for me
I'm on my way friend, I'm going home to see

My mom, I love her
My mom, you'd love her
Who wouldn't love her, my mom
That sweet somebody, thinks I'm somebody
My pal, my buddy, my mom

Anything I do she's my only inspiration
Anytime I'm blue she's my only consolation

As years come on her
I gaze upon her
She's my Madonna
My mom
My pal, my buddy, my mom

Yes, anything I do she's my only inspiration
Anytime I'm blue she's my only consolation

As years come on her
I gaze upon her
She's my Madonna
My mom

"My Old Flame"

The music seemed to be so reminiscent
I knew I heard it somewhere before
I wracked my recollections as I listened
When suddenly I remembered once more

My old flame
I can't even think of her name
But it's funny now and then
How my thoughts go flashing back again
To my old flame
My old flame

My old flame
My new lovers all seem so tame
For I haven't met a gal
So magnificent, my only pal
As my old flame

I've met so many who
have fascinating ways
A fascinating gaze in their eyes
Some who took me up to the skies
But their attempts at love
Were only imitations of
My old flame
I can't even think of her name
But I’ll never be the same
Until I discover what became
Of my old flame

"My Romance"

My romance doesn't have to have a moon in the sky,
My romance doesn't need a blue lagoon standing by.
No month of May, no twinkling stars,
No hide away, no soft guitars.

My romance doesn't need a castle rising in Spain
Nor a dance to a constantly surprising refrain.
Wide awake I can make my most fantastic dreams come true,
My romance doesn't need a thing but you.

"Nancy (With The Laughing Face)"

If I don't see her each day, I miss her
Gee, what a thrill each time I kiss her
Believe me, I've got a case
On Nancy, with the laughin' face

She takes the winter and she makes it summer
And summer could take a few lessons from her
Picture a tomboy in lace
That's Nancy with the laughin' face

Did you ever hear mission bells ringing?
Well, she'll give you the very same glow
When she speaks you would think it was singing
Just hear her say "hello"

I swear to goodness, you can't resist her
Sorry for you, she has no sister
No angel could replace
Nancy, with the laughin' face

"Nature Boy"
(with Lady Gaga)
(originally by Nat King Cole)

There was a boy
A very strange enchanted boy
They say he wandered very far, very far

Over land and sea
A little shy and sad of eye
But very wise was he

And then one day
A magic day he passed my way
And while we spoke of many things
Fools and kings
This he said to me

The greatest thing you'll ever learn
Is just to love and be loved in return

And then one day
A magic day he passed my way
And while we spoke of many things
Fools and kings

The greatest thing you'll ever learn
Is just to love and be loved in return

"Never Too Late"

Its never too late
For rainbows to shine
For whispering violins
And bubbles in the wine

Its never too late
To ring like a bell
To steal away somewhere
And catch a carousel

The summer is green
The autumn is gold
So no matter when love comes
Its heavenly to hold

Let your heart stay young and strong
Just one note can start a song
So don’t worry ‘bout how long
You’ve had to wait

Its never too late
Its never too late

The summer is green
The autumn is gold
So no matter when love comes
Its heavenly to hold

Let your heart stay young and strong
Just one note can start a song
So don’t worry ‘bout how long
You’ve had to wait

Its never too late
Its never too late

"Nice Work If You Can Get It"

Holdin' hands at midnight
'neath a starry sky
Nice work if you can get it
And you can get it if you try

Strollin' with the one girl
Sighin' sigh after sigh
Nice work if you can get it
And you can get it if you try

Just imagine someone
Waiting at the cottage door
Where two hearts become one
Who could ask for anything more?

Loving one who loves you
And then takin' that vow
Nice work if you can get it
And if you get it won't you tell me how?

Holdin' hands at midnight
'neath a starry sky

And strollin' with the one girl
Sighing sigh after sigh

Just imagine someone
Waiting at the cottage door
Where two hearts become one
Who could ask for anything more?

Loving one who loves you
And then takin' that vow
Nice work if you can get it
And if you get it won't you tell me how?

"Night And Day"

Like the beat beat beat of the tom-tom
When the jungle shadows fall
Like the tick tick tock of the stately clock
As it stands against the wall
Like the drip drip drip of the raindrops
When the summer shower is through
So a voice within me keeps repeating you, you, you
Night and day, you are the one
Only you beneath the moon or under the sun
Whether near to me, or far
It's no matter darling where you are
I think of you
Day and night, night and day, why is it so
That this longing for you follows wherever I go
In the roaring traffic's boom
In the silence of my lonely room
I think of you
Day and night, night and day
Under the hide of me
There's an oh such a hungry yearning burning inside of me
And this torment won't be through
Until you let me spend my life making love to you
Day and night, night and day

"Nobody Else But Me"

I want to be no-one but me
I am in love with a lady who likes me the way I am
I have my faults, she likes my faults
I'm not very bright, she's not very bright

She thinks I'm grand, that's grand for me
She may be wrong, but if we get along
What do we care? say we

Walking on the shore, swimming in the sea
When I am with her, I'm glad the boy who's with her
Is nobody else but me

"Nobody's Heart"

Nobody's heart belongs to me
Hiegh Ho; Who cares?
Nobody writes his songs to me,
No one belongs to me.
That's the least of my cares.
I may be sad at times,
And disinclined to play,
But it's not bad at times,
To go your own sweet way.
Nobody's arms belong to me
No arms feel strong to me.
I admire the moon as a moon, just a moon.
Nobody's heart belongs to me....today.

"O Christmas Tree"

O Christmas Tree,
O Christmas Tree,
How steadfast are
Your branches!
Your boughs are green
In summer's clime
And through the snows
Of wintertime.
O Christmas Tree,
O Christmas Tree,
How steadfast are
Your branches!

O Christmas Tree,
O Christmas Tree,
What happiness befalls me
When oft at
Joyous Christmas-time
Your form inspires
My song and rhyme.
O Christmas Tree,
O Christmas Tree,
What happiness befalls me

O Christmas Tree,
O Christmas Tree,
Your boughs can
Teach a lesson
That constant faith
And hope sublime
Lend strength and
Comfort through all time.
O Christmas Tree,
O Christmas Tree,
Your boughs can
Teach a lesson

"Oh, You Crazy Moon"

When they met, the way they smiled
I saw that I was through
Oh, you crazy moon
What did you do

And when they kissed, they tried to say
That it was just in fun
Oh, you crazy moon
Look what you've done

Once you promised me, you know
That it would never end
You should be ashamed to show
Your funny face my friend

Well, there they are, they fell in love
I guess that you think that you're smart
Oh, you crazy moon
You broke my heart

"Ol' Man River"

Ol' Man River, that Ol' Man River
He must know somethin' but he don't say nothin'
He just keeps rollin', keeps on rollin' along.
He don't plant tatters, and he don't plant cotton
and them that plants'em, are soon forgotten.
But Ol' Man River, just keeps rollin' along.

You and me, we sweat and strain,
Bodies all achin' and racked with pain.
Tote that barge and lift that bail.
You get a little drunk and you lands in jail.
I gets weary and sick of trying
I'm tired of livin', feared of dyin'
And Ol' Man River, he just keeps rollin'
just keeps rollin'
just keeps rollin' along

"Old Devil Moon"

I look at you and suddenly,
Something in your eyes I see;
Soon begins bewitching me.
It's that old devil moon;
That you stole from the skies.
It's that old devil moon in your eyes.
You and you glance;
Make this romance;
Too hot to handle.
Stars in the night;
Blazing their light;
Can't hold a candle;
To your razzle-dazzle.
You've got me flyin' high and wide;
On a magic carpet ride;
Full of butterflies inside.
Wanna cry, wanna croon,
Wanna laugh like a loon.
It's that old devil moon in your eyes.
Just when I think, I'm;
Free as a dove.
Old devil moon,
Deep in your eyes,
Blinds me with love.

"On A Clear Day (You Can See Forever)"

On a clear day,
Rise and look around you,
And you'll see who you are.

On a clear day,
How it will astound you
That the glow of your being outshines every star.

You'll feel part of every mountain,
Sea and shore,
You can hear from far and near
A world you've never heard before.

And on a clear day,
On that clear day,
You can see forever,
And ever more.

"On Green Dolphin Street"

It seems like a dream
Yet I know it happened
A man, a maid, a kiss, and then goodbye
Romance was the theme
And we were the players
I never think of this without a sigh

Lover, one lovely day
Love came planning to stay
Green Dolphin Street supplied the setting
The setting for nights beyond forgetting

And through these moments apart
Memories live in my heart
When I recall the love I found on,
I could kiss the ground on,
Green Dolphin Street

"On The Other Side Of The Tracks"

But my heart says, “Reach for the stars”
And my heart I cannot deny
Though its my hard luck
That I’m stuck
On the farthest one in the sky

So my eyes are destined to wander
And my brain no more to relax
For there’s nothing farther out yonder
Than the other side of the tracks

On the other side of the tracks
It’s a long and difficult climb
But the air up there on the bill of faire
Is a choice of lemon and lime

And the muscles keeping your nose up
Are the only muscles you tax
Oh I envy someone who grows up
On the other side of the tracks

So I’m off and running
Over the rail
I’m going gunning
After the quail
Off and running
Send me the mail

To the great big world
On the other side
To the great big world
On the farther side
To the great big world
On the other side of the tracks

One more time!

To the great big world
On the other side
The great big world
On the farther side
The great big world
On the other side of the tracks

"On The Sunny Side Of The Street"
(feat. Willie Nelson)

Grab your coat and get your hat
Leave your worries on the doorstep
Life can be so sweet
On the sunny side of the street

Can't you hear the pit-a-pat?
And that happy tune is your step
Life can be complete
On the sunny side of the street

I used to walk in the shade
With those blues on parade
But I'm not afraid
Because this rover crossed over

And if I never had a cent
I'd be rich as Rockefeller
With gold dust at my feet
On the sunny side of the street

I used to walk in the shade
With those blues on parade
But I'm not afraid
Because this rover crossed over

And if I never had a cent
I'd be rich as Rockefeller
With gold dust at my feet
On the sunny side of the street
