SPINNING WHEEL 

What goes up must come down
spinning wheel got to go round
Talking about your troubles it's a crying sin
Ride a painted pony
Let the spinning wheel spin

You got no money, and you, you got no home
Spinning wheel all alone
Talking about your troubles and you, you never learn
Ride a painted pony
let the spinning wheel turn

Did you find a directing sign
on the straight and narrow highway?
Would you mind a reflecting sign
Just let it shine within your mind
And show you the colours that are real

Someone is waiting just for you
spinning wheel is spinning true
Drop all your troubles, by the river side
Catch a painted pony
On the spinning wheel ride

Someone is waiting just for you
spinning wheel is spinning true
Drop all your troubles, by the river side
Ride a painted pony
Let the spinning wheel fly

STORMY WEATHER 

Don't know why
There's no sun up in the sky
Stormy weather
Since my man and I ain't together
Keeps raining all the time
Life is bare
Gloom and misery everywhere
Stormy weather
Just can't get my poor self together
I'm weary all the time
The time
So weary all the time
Since he went away
The blues walked in and met me
If he stays away
Old rocking chair' will get me
All I do is pray
That the lord above will let me
Walk in the sun once more
Can't go on
Everything I had is gone
Stormy Weather
Since my man and I ain't together
Keeps raining all the time
Keeps raining all the time

I can't go on
Everything I had is gone
Stormy Weather
Since my man and I ain't together
Keeps raining all the time
Keeps raining all the time
Since my man and I we ain't together
Keeps raining all the time

STRANGERS IN THE NIGHT 

Strangers in the night exchanging glances
Wondring in the night
What were the chances wed be sharing love
Before the night was through.

Something in your eyes was so inviting,
Something in you smile was so exciting,
Something in my heart,
Told me I must have you.

Strangers in the night, two lonely people
We were strangers in the night
Up to the moment
When we said our first hello.
Little did we know
Love was just a glance away,
A warm embracing dance away and -

Ever since that night weve been together.
Lovers at first sight, in love forever.
It turned out so right,
For strangers in the night.

STREET OF DREAMS 

Midnight, you heavy laden, it's midnight
Come on and trade in your old dreams for new
Your new dreams for old
I know where they're bought
I know where they're sold
Midnight, you've got to get there at midnight
And you'll be met there by others like you
Brothers as blue
Smiling on the street of dreams
Love laughs at a king
Kings don't mean a thing
On the street of dreams
Dreams broken in two can be made like new
On the street of dreams
Gold, sliver and gold
All you can hold is in the moonbeams
Poor, no one is poor
Long as love is sure
On the street of dreams
Midnight, look at the steeple, it's midnight
Unhappy people, it's ringing with joy
It's ringing with cheer
'Cause yesterday's gone
Tomorrow is near
Midnight, the heart is lighter at midnight
Things will be brighter the moment you find
More of your kind
Love laughs at a king
Kings don't mean a thing
On the street of dreams
Dreams broken in two can be made like new
On the street of dreams
Gold, sliver and gold
All you can hold is in the moonbeams
Poor, no one is poor
Long as love is sure
On the street of dreams

SUMMERTIME 

Summertime and the living is easy
Fish are jumping and the cotton is high
Your dad is rich and your mom's good looking
So hush little baby baby don't you cry

One of these mornings you're gonna rise up singing
Then you'll spread your wings
And you'll take to the sky
But till that morning
There ain't nothing can harm you
With daddy and mommy mommy standing by

One of these mornings you're gonna rise up singing
Then you'll spread your wings
And you'll take to the sky
But till that morning
There ain't nothing can harm you
With daddy and mommy mommy standing by
So hush little baby baby don't you cry

SUPERSTAR 

Long ago and so far away
I fell in love with you before the second show
And your guitar just sounds so sweet and clear
But you're not really here, it's just the radio

Don't you remember you told me you loved me, baby?
Said you'd be comin' back this way again, baby
Baby, baby, baby, baby, oh, baby, I love you

Loneliness is such a sad affair
And I can hardly wait, oh, just to sleep with you again
What can I say to have you come again?
Come back and play, yeah, you could play
You could play, play that sad guitar

Don't you remember you told me you loved me, baby?
Yes, you said you'd be comin' back this way again, baby
You called me baby, baby, baby, oh, baby, I love you

You know, loneliness is such a sad affair
And I, I can hardly wait, just to sleep with him again
What can I say to have him come back again?
He could come back and he could play, play his sad guitar

Don't you remember you told me you loved me?
Said you'd be coming back again, baby
He called me baby, baby, baby, baby, oh, baby
I love you, I really do

SWEET HAPPY LIFE 

My wish for you, sweet happy life
May all the days of the year that you live be laughing days
With all my heart, sweet happy life
And may the night times that follow the days be dancing nights

Stars for your smile
Moons for your hair
And someone?s wonderful love
For your loving heart to share

My wish for you, sweet happy life
May all your sorrows be gone and your heart begin to sing
And if a wish can make it be
I wish you spend everyday of your happy life with me

Stars for your smile
Moons for your hair
And someone?s wonderful love
For your loving heart to share

My wish for you, sweet happy life
May all your sorrows be gone and your heart begin to sing
And if a wish can make it be
I wish you spend everyday of your happy life with me

SWING LOW SWEET CHARIOT 

Swing low, sweet chariot
Coming for to carry me home
Swing low, sweet chariot
Coming for to carry me home

I looked over Jordan and what did I see
Coming for to carry me home
A band of angels coming after me
Coming for to carry me home

(chorus)

Sometimes I'm up and sometimes I'm down
Coming for to carry me home
But still my soul feels heavenly bound
Coming for to carry me home

(chorus)

The brightest day that I can say
Coming for to carry me home
When Jesus washed my sins away,
Coming for to carry me home.

(chorus)

If I get there before you do
Coming for to carry me home
I'll cut a hole and pull you through
Coming for to carry me home

(chorus)

If you get there before I do
Coming for to carry me home
Tell all my friends I'm coming too
Coming for to carry me home

(chorus)

TAKING A CHANCE ON LOVE 

Here I go again
I hear those trumpets blow again
All aglow again
Taking a chance on love

Here I slide again
About to take that ride again
Starry eyed again
Taking a chance on love

I thought that cards were a frame-up
I never would try
Now I'm taking that game up
And the ace of hearts is high

Things are mending now
I see a rainbow blending now
We'll have a happy ending now
Taking a chance on love

Here I slip again
About to take that trip again
I got that grip again
Taking a chance on love

Now I prove again
That I can make life move again
I'm in a groove again
Taking a chance on love

I walk around with a horseshoe
In clover I lie
And brother rabbit of course you
Better kiss your foot good-bye

On that ball again
I'm riding for a fall again
I'm gonna give my all again
Taking a chance on love

TALK TO ME BABY 

Talk to me baby tell me lies
Tell me lies as sweet as apple pies
And if your lips have never told a fib
You might adlib with your eyes

Ooh, tell me I'm marvelous, exaggerate
Prevaricate if you must just

Talk to me baby soft and low
And then if you decide it's really so
Swear you'll be mine forever otherwise
Just talk to me and tell me lies

Say that we're helpless in the hands of fate
Prevaricate if you must just

Talk to me baby soft and low
And then if you decide it's really so
Then swear you'll be mine forever otherwise
Ah, just talk to me and tell me lies, lies, lies, lies

A great big beautiful wonderful
Beautiful lies, lies, lies, lies
Great big, great big beautiful lies
