Lyrics


1. Blue Moon of Kentucky
(Bill Monroe)

Blue moon, blue moon, blue moon, keep a-shinin' bright
Blue moon, keep a-shinin' bright
You're gonna bring me back my baby tonight
Blue moon, keep shinin' bright

I said blue moon of Kentucky, keep on shining
Shine on the one that's gone and left me blue
I said blue moon of Kentucky to keep on shining
Shine on the one that's gone and left me blue

Well, it was on one moonlight night
Stars shinin' bright
Whisper on high, love said good-bye.
Blue moon of Kentucky keep on shining
Shine on the one that's gone and left me blue

Well, I said blue moon of Kentucky
Just a-keep on shining
Shine on the one that's gone and left me blue
I said blue moon of Kentucky to keep on shining
Shine on the one that's gone and left me blue



2. Milkcow Blues Boogie
(Kokomo Arnold)

Oh well, I woke up this morning,
And I looked out the door.
I can tell that old milk cow
By the way she lowed.

Hold it fellows, that don't move me.
Let's get real, real gone for a change.

Well, I woke up this morning
And I looked out the door
I can tell that that old milk cow
I can tell the way she lowed.

Now, if you've seen my milk cow,
Please drive her on home.
I ain't had no milk or butter
Since that cow's been gone.

Well, I tried to treat you right,
Day by day.
Get out your little prayer book
Get down on your knees and pray.
For you're gonna need,
You're gonna need your loving daddy's help someday.
Well, then you're gonna be sorry
For treating me this way.

Oh let's milk it, Yeah!

Well, believe me, don't that sun look good going down?
Well, believe me, don't that sun look good going down?
Well, don't that old moon look lonesome
When your baby's not around.

Well, I tried everything to get along with you.
I'm gonna tell you what I'm gonna do.
I'm gonna quit my crying, I'm gonna leave you alone.
If you don't believe I'm leaving, you can count the days I'm gone.
I'm gonna leave.
You're gonna need your loving daddy's help someday.
Well then, you're gonna be sorry you treated me this way



3. Baby Let's Play House

Oh, baby, baby, baby, baby baby
Baby, baby baby, b-b-b-b-b-b baby baby, baby

4. I Don't Care if the Sun Don't Shine
(Mack David)

Well, I don't care if the sun don't shine
I get my lovin' in the evening time
When I'm with my baby.

Well, it ain't no fun with the sun around
I get goin' when the sun goes down tonight
And I'm with my baby.

Well, that's when we're gonna kiss
And kiss and kiss and kiss
And we're gonna kiss some more

Who cares how many times we kiss,
'Cause at a time like this, who keeps score

And it don't matter if it's sleet or snow
A drive-in's cozy when the lights are low
When I'm with my baby.
Makes no difference if the rain comes down
I don't notice when she's around.
Oh boy, what a baby.

Well, one kiss from my baby darling
Makes me holler More more more more.

9. Is it so strange
(Faron Young)

Oh, if you tell a lie
You know that I'll forgive you
Though you say our love is just a game
And when you hear my name
You'll say I'm from a strange world
But is it so strange to be in love with you?

Is it so strange
That I love you more than all the world?
Is it so strange
I have no eyes for another girl?

Oh won't you take me back
And say that you still love me?
To waste a love like ours would be a sin
Let us kiss again
Let me hold you near
And take me from this strange world
That I'm living in



10. We're Gonna Move
(Vera Motson / Elvis Presley)

Well there's a leak in this old building
Yes, there's a leak in this old building
Well there's a leak in this old building
We're gonna move to a better home

We got no pane in this old winda'
We got no pane in this old winda'
We got no pane in this old winda'
We're gonna move to a better home

Well there's a hole in the roof where the rain pours in
A hole in the floor where it runs right out again
Well there's a leak in this old building
Well there's a leak in this old building
Well there's a leak in this old building
We're gonna move to a better home


Well there's a crack across the ceiling
Yes there's a crack across the ceiling
Well there's a crack across the ceiling
We're gonna find us a better home

We've got a stove without a chimney
We've got a stove without a chimney
What good's a stove without a chimney?
We're gonna move to a better home

Pullin' down window shades is no use at all
The kids and the neighbours can peep right through the wall
Well there's a leak in this old building
Well there's a leak in this old building
Well there's a leak in this old building
We're gonna move to a better, move to a better
Move to a better ho-ho-ho-home



11. Blue Moon
(Lorenz Hart / Richard Rogers)

Blue moon, you saw me standing alone
Without a dream in my heart, without a love of my own.
Blue moon, you knew just what I was there for
You heard me saying a prayer for
Someone I really could care for.

Blue, Blue, without a love of my own.

Blue moon, you saw me standing alone
Without a dream in my heart, without a love of my own.

Blue, Whaaaaa, without a love of my own.

Blue moon, Blue, Whaa Whaa Whaa Whaa Whaa without a love of my own.

Omitted
(And then there suddenly appeared before me
the only one my arms will ever hold. I heard somebody whisper,
'Please adore me' and when I looked, the moon had turned to gold.)

Blue moon, now I'm no longer alone, without a dream in my heart,
without a love of my own.



12. Just Because
(Shelton / Shelton / Robin)

Well, well, well,
Just because you think you're so pretty,
And just because your momma thinks you're hot,
Well, just because you think you've got something
That nobody else has got,
You've caused me to spend all my money.
You laughed and called me old Santa Claus.
Well, I'm telling you,
Baby, I'm through with you.
Because, well, well, just because.

Well, well,
There'll come a time when you'll be lonesome
And there'll come a time when you'll be blue.
Well, there'll come a time when old Santa
He won't pay your bills for you.
You caused me to lose all my women
And now, now you say we are through.
Well, I'm telling you
Baby, I was through with you
A long, long, long time ago.

Well, just because you think you're so pretty
And just because your mama thinks you're the hottest thing in town
Well, just because you think you've got something
That nobody else has got,
You caused me to spend all my money.
Honey, you laughed and called me old Santa Claus.
Well, I'm telling you, baby I'm through with you
Because, well, well, just because.



13. One-Sided Love Affair
(Bill Campbell)

If you wanna to be loved,
Baby, you've gotta love me, too.
If you wanna be loved,
Baby, you've gotta love me, too.
Oh yeah, 'cause I ain't for no one-sided love affair.

If you wanna be kissed,
Well, you've gotta kiss me, too.
Oh yeah, if you wanna be kissed,
Well, you gotta kiss me, too, oh yeah
'Cause I ain't for no one-sided love affair.

* Well, in a fair exchange there's no robbery,
And the whole world will know that it's true.
Understanding solves my problem, baby,
That's why I'm tellin' you

** If you wanna be hugged,
Well, you gotta hug me, too.
Oh yeah, if you wanna be hugged,
Well, you've gotta hug me, too.
Oh yeah, 'cause I ain't for no one-sided love affair.

Well, If you know you can't take it,
Well, then baby, why try to give it?
If you know you can't take it,
Then baby, why try to give it?
'Cause I ain't for no one-sided love affair.

'Cause I ain't for no one-sided love affair.
'Cause I ain't for no one-sided love affair.



14. Let Me
(Vera Motson / Elvis Presley)

Whenever I dance with the girl I love
My head goes round and round
When she's close to me
I can't stay on the ground, uh huh, uh huh

Whenever I dance with the girl I love
I never have a care
All night I'm so light
I walk right on the air, the air, the air

Oh let me, a-honey let me
Let me do what you know I love to do
Please take another chance and let me
Let me have another dance with you

Whenever I feel those pretty arms
Reaching round about
That feeling goes to my toes
And all the lights go out, go out, go out

Whenever I see those eyes of blue
Smiling up so shy
I'm in such a spin I take right off and fly, I-yi, I-yi

So let me, a-honey let me
Let me do what you know I love to do
Please take another chance and let me
Let me have another dance with you

So let me dance in the arms I love
Thrill me through and through
I'm so drunk with love
And all I see is you, ooh, ooh

I never hear the music play
I never see the crowd
Only you and me
Dancin, on a cloud, a cloud, a cloud

Oh let me, oh honey let me
Let me do what you know I love to do
Please take another chance and let me
Let me have, another dance, with you
