Wagon Wheel

Heading down south to the land of the pines

I'm thumbing my way into North Carolina

Staring up the road and pray to God I see headlights

I made it down the coast in seventeen hours

Picking me a bouquet of dogwood flowers

And I'm a-hopin' for Raleigh, I can see my baby tonight

 

So rock me momma like a wagon wheel

Rock me momma any way you feel

Hey momma rock me

Rock me momma like the wind and the rain

Rock me momma like a south bound train

Hey momma rock me

 

Running from the cold up in New England

I was born to be a fiddler in an old time string band

My baby plays a guitar, I pick a banjo now

Oh, north country winters keep a-getting me down

Lost my money playing poker so I had to leave town

But I ain't turning back to living that old life no more

 

So rock me momma like a wagon wheel

Rock me momma any way you feel

Hey momma rock me

Rock me momma like the wind and the rain

Rock me momma like a south bound train

Hey momma rock me

 

Walkin' to the south out of Roanoke

I caught a trucker out of Philly had a nice long toke

But he's a-heading west from the Cumberland gap

To Johnson City, Tennessee

I gotta get a move on before the sun

I hear my baby calling my name and I know that she's the only one

And if I die in Raleigh at least I will die free

 

So rock me momma like a wagon wheel

Rock me momma any way you feel

Hey momma rock me

Oh, rock me momma like the wind and the rain

Rock me momma like a south bound train

Hey, hey momma rock me

 

Oh, so rock me momma like a wagon wheel

Rock me momma any way you feel (I wanna feel)

Hey, hey momma rock me (momma rock me, momma rock me)

Rock me momma like the wind and the rain

Rock me momma like a south bound train

(I wanna rock like a south bound train)

Hey momma rock me rock me

While My Guitar Gently Weeps

 

I look at you all, see the love there that's sleeping

While my guitar gently weeps

I look at the floor and I see it needs sweeping

Still my guitar gently weeps

 

I don't know why nobody told you

How to unfold your love

I don't know how someone controlled you

They bought and sold you

 

I look at the world and I notice it's turning

While my guitar gently weeps

With every mistake we must surely be learning

Still my guitar gently weeps

 

Well...

 

I don't know how you were diverted

You were perverted too

I don't know how you were inverted

No one alerted you

 

I look at you all, see the love there that's sleeping

While my guitar gently weeps

Look at you all

Still my guitar gently weeps

Ghost Riders In The Sky

An old cowboy went ridin' out one dark and windy day

Upon a ridge he rested as he went along his way

When all at once a mighty herd of red-eyed cows he saw

Plowin' through the ragged skies, and up a cloudy draw

 

Their brands were still on fire and their hooves were made of steel

Their horns were black and shiny, and their hot breath he could feel

A bolt of fear went through him as they thundered through the sky

For he saw the riders coming hard, and he heard their mournful cry

 

Yippie-yi-oh, yippie-yi-aie!

Ghost riders in the sky

 

Their faces gaunt, their eyes were blurred, their shirts all soaked with sweat

He's ridin' hard to catch that herd, but he ain't caught 'em yet

'Cause they've got to ride forever on that range up in the sky

On horses snortin' fire, as they ride on, hear their cry

 

As the riders loped on by him, he heard one call his name

"If you wanna save your soul from Hell, a-ridin' on our range

Then cowboy, change your ways today, or with us you will ride

Tryin' to catch the Devil's herd, across these endless skies"

 

Yippie-yi-oh, yippie-yi-aie!

Ghost riders in the sky

Ghost riders in the sky

Ghost riders in the sky

You Belong To Me

 

I know you belong to somebody new

But tonight you belong to me

Although we're apart, you're part of my heart

And tonight you belong to me

 

Way down by the stream

How sweet it will seem

Once more just to dream

In the silvery moonlight

 

My honey, I know (I know), with the dawn
That you will be gone
But tonight, you belong to me

 

Way down, way down along the stream
How very, very sweet it will seem
Once more, just to dream, in the silvery moonlight

My honey, I know (I know), with the dawn
That you will be gone
But tonight you belong to me
Just to little old me

Home

 

Alabama, Arkansas

I do love my Ma and Pa

Not the way that I do love you

 

Well, holy molly me oh my

You're the apple of my eye

Girl, I never loved one like you

 

Man, oh, man, you're my best friend

I scream it to the nothingness

There ain't nothing that I need

 

Well, hot and heavy pumpkin pie

Chocolate candy, Jesus Christ

Ain't nothing please me more than you

 

Home, let me come home

Home is wherever I'm with you

Home, let me come home

Home is wherever I'm with you

 

La la la la

Take me home

Mama, I'm coming home

 

I'll follow you into the park

Through the jungle, through the dark

Girl, I never loved one like you

 

Moats and boats, and waterfalls

Alleyways, and pay phone calls

I've been everywhere with you (that's true)

 

Laugh until we think we'll die

Barefoot on a summer night

Never could be sweeter than with you

 

And in the streets you run a free

Like it's only you and me

Jeez, you're something to see

 

Oh, home, let me come home

Home is wherever I'm with you

Oh, home, let me come home

Home is wherever I'm with you

 

La la la la

Take me home

Daddy, I'm coming home

 

Oh, home, let me come home

Home is wherever I'm with you

Oh, home, let me come home

Home is where I'm alone with you

 

Home, let me come home

Home is wherever I'm with you

Our home, yes, I am home

Home is when I'm alone with you

 

Alabama, Arkansas

I do love my Ma and Pa

Moats and boats, and waterfalls

Alleyways, and payphone calls

 

(Oh home) Home

(Oh home) Home

Home is wherever I'm with you!

(Oh home) Home

(Oh home) Home

Home is wherever I'm with you!

Hallelujah

Well, I heard there was a secret chord

That David played and it pleased the Lord

But you don't really care for music, do you?

Well it goes like this:

The fourth, the fifth, the minor fall and the major lift

The baffled king composing Hallelujah

 

Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah...

 

Well your faith was strong but you needed proof

You saw her bathing on the roof

Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew ya

She tied you to her kitchen chair

She broke your throne and she cut your hair

And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah

 

Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah...

 

Well, baby, I've been here before

I've seen this room and I've walked this floor (you know)

I used to live alone before I knew ya

And I've seen your flag on the marble arch

And love is not a victory march

It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah

 

Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah...

 

Well, there was a time when you let me know

What's really going on below

But now you never show that to me, do ya?

But remember when I moved in you

And the holy dove was moving too

And every breath we drew was Hallelujah

 

Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah...

 

Maybe there's a God above

But all I've ever learned from love

Was how to shoot somebody who outdrew ya

And it's not a cry that you hear at night

It's not somebody who's seen the light

It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah

 

Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah...

Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah...

Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah

Hallelujah, hallelujah

What A Wonderful World

I see trees of green

Red roses too

I see them bloom

For me and you

And I think to myself

What a wonderful world

 

I see skies of blue

And clouds of white

The bright blessed day

The dark sacred night

And I think to myself

What a wonderful world

 

The colors of the rainbow

So pretty in the sky

Are also on the faces

Of people going by

I see friends shaking hands

Saying, "How do you do?"

They're really saying

"I love you"

 

I hear babies cry

I watch them grow

They'll learn much more

Than I'll never know

And I think to myself

What a wonderful world

 

The colors of the rainbow

So pretty in the sky

Are also on the faces

Of people going by

 

I see friends shaking hands

Saying, "How do you do?"

They're really saying

"I love you"

Yes, I think to myself

What a wonderful world

Yes, I think to myself

What a wonderful world

Cecilia

 

Celia, you're breaking my heart

You're shaking my confidence daily

Oh Cecilia, I'm down on my knees

I'm begging you please to come home

 

Celia, you're breaking my heart

You're shaking my confidence daily

Oh Cecilia, I'm down on my knees

I'm begging you please to come home

 

Come on home

Making love in the afternoon with Cecilia

Up in my bedroom (making love)

I got up to wash my face

When I come back to bed

Someone's taken my place

 

Celia, you're breaking my heart

You're shaking my confidence daily

Oh Cecilia, I'm down on my knees

I'm begging you please to come home

 

Jubilation

She loves me again

I fall on the floor and I'm laughing

 

Jubilation

She loves me again

I fall on the floor and I'm laughing

Believe

No matter how hard I try

You keep pushing me aside

And I can't break through

There's no talking to you

 

It's so sad that you're leaving

It takes time to believe it

But after all is said and done

You're gonna be the lonely one

Oh, oh

 

Do you believe in life after love?

I can feel something inside me say

"I really don't think you're strong enough. No."

Do you believe in life after love?

I can feel something inside me say

"I really don't think you're strong enough. No."

 

What am I supposed to do?

Sit around and wait for you?

Well, I can't do that

And there's no turning back

 

I need time to move on

I need love to feel strong

'Cause I've had time to think it through

And maybe I'm too good for you

Oh, oh

 

Do you believe in life after love?

I can feel something inside me say

"I really don't think you're strong enough. No."

Do you believe in life after love?

I can feel something inside me say

"I really don't think you're strong enough. No."

 

Well, I know that I'll get through this

'Cause I know that I am strong

And I don't need you anymore

Oh, I don't need you anymore

Oh, I don't need you anymore

No, I don't need you anymore

 

Do you believe in life after love?

I can feel something inside me say

"I really don't think you're strong enough. No."

Do you believe in life after love?

I can feel something inside me say

"I really don't think you're strong enough. No."

 

Do you believe in life after love?

I can feel something inside me say

"I really don't think you're strong enough. No."

Do you believe in life after love?

I can feel something inside me say

"I really don't think you're strong enough. No."

Every Little Thing She Does Is Magic

 

Though I've tried before to tell her

Of the feelings I have for her in my heart

Every time that I come near her

I just lose my nerve as I've done from the start

 

Every little thing she does is magic

Everything she do just turns me on

Even though my life before was tragic

Now I know my love for her goes on

 

Do I have to tell the story

Of a thousand rainy days since we first met

It's a big enough umbrella

But it's always me that ends up getting wet

 

Every little thing she does is magic

Everything she do just turns me on

Even though my life before was tragic

Now I know my love for her goes on

Every little thing she does is magic

Everything she do just turns me on

Even though my life before was tragic

Now I know my love for her goes on

 

I resolved to call her up

A thousand times a day

And ask her if she'll marry me

In some old fashioned way

But my silent fears have gripped me

Long before I reach the phone

Long before my tongue has tripped me

Must I always be alone?

 

Every little thing she does is magic

Everything she do just turns me on

Even though my life before was tragic

Now I know my love for her goes on

Every little thing she does is magic

Everything she do just turns me on

Even though my life before was tragic

Now I know my love for her goes on...

 

Every little thing...

Every little thing she does...

Every little thing she does is magic...

Mele Kalikimaka

 

Mele Kalikimaka is the thing to say

On a bright Hawaiian Christmas day

That's the island greeting that we send to you

From the land where palm trees sway

 

Here we know that Christmas will be green and bright

The sun to shine by day and all the stars at night

Mele Kalikimaka is Hawaii's way

To say Merry Christmas to you

Jingle Bell Rock

 

Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock 

Jingle bells swing and jingle bells ring 

Snowin’ and blowin’ up bushels of fun 

Now the jingle hop has begun 

 

Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock 

Jingle bells chime in jingle bell time 

Dancin’ and prancin’ in Jingle Bell Square 

In the frosty air 

 

What a bright time, it’s the right time 

To rock the night away 

Jingle bell time is a swell time 

To go glidin’ in a one-horse sleigh 

 

Giddy-up, jingle horse, pick up your feet 

Jingle around the clock 

Mix and mingle in a jinglin’ beat 

That’s the jingle bell rock!
