Jim Croce - Bad Bad Leroy Brown
 Well the south side of chicagoIs the baddest part of town And if you go down there You better just beware Of a man named leroy brown Now leroy more than trouble You see he stand ’bout six foot four All the downtown ladies call him treetop lover All the mens just call him sir And it’s bad, bad leroy brown The baddest man in the whole damn town Badder than old king kong And meaner than a junkyard dog Now leroy he a gambler And he like his fancy clothes And he like to wave his diamond rings In front of everybody’s nose He got a custom continental He got an eldorado too He got a 32 gun in his pocket for fun He got a razor in his shoe And it’s bad, bad leroy brown The baddest man in the whole damn town Badder than old king kong And meaner than a junkyard dog Well friday bout a week ago Leroy shootin’ dice And at the edge of the bar Sat a girl named doris And ooh that girl looked nice Well he cast his eyes upon her And the trouble soon began And leroy brown learned a lesson ’bout messin’ with the wife of a jealous man And it’s bad, bad leroy brown The baddest man in the whole damned town Badder than old king kong And meaner than a junkyard dog, Well the two men took to fightin’ And when they pulled them from the floor Leroy looked like a jigsaw puzzle With a couple of pieces gone And it’s bad, bad leroy brown The baddest man in the whole damn town Badder than old king kong And meaner than a junkyard dog |

Frankie Valli - Can't Take My Eyes Off You
 You're just too good to be true.Can't take my eyes off you. You'd be like Heaven to touch. I wanna hold you so much. At long last love has arrived And I thank God I'm alive. You're just too good to be true. Can't take my eyes off you. Pardon the way that I stare. There's nothing else to compare. The sight of you leaves me weak. There are no words left to speak, But if you feel like I feel, Please let me know that it's real. You're just too good to be true. Can't take my eyes off you. I love you, baby, And if it's quite alright, I need you, baby, To warm a lonely night. I love you, baby. Trust in me when I say: Oh, pretty baby, Don't bring me down, I pray. Oh, pretty baby, now that I found you, stay And let me love you, baby. Let me love you. You're just too good to be true. Can't take my eyes off you. You'd be like Heaven to touch. I wanna hold you so much. At long last love has arrived And I thank God I'm alive. You're just too good to be true. Can't take my eyes off you. I love you, baby, And if it's quite alright, I need you, baby, To warm a lonely night. I love you, baby. Trust in me when I say: Oh, pretty baby, Don't bring me down, I pray.

 No, you're never gonna get it (Ow!)Never ever gonna get it (No, not this time) No, you're never gonna get it (My love) Never ever gonna get it No, you're never gonna get it (Ow!) Never ever gonna get it (No, not this time) No, you're never gonna get it (My love) Never ever gonna get it I remember how it used to be You never was this nice, you can't fool me Now you talkin' like you made a change The more you talk, the more things sound the same What makes you think you can just walk back into her life Without a good fight?

Ella Fitzgerald - Dream A Little Dream
 Stars shining bright above you. Night breezes seem to whisper, 'I love you,' Birds singing in the sycamore tree. Dream a little dream of me. Say nighty-night and kiss me. Just hold me tight and tell me you'll miss me. While I'm alone and blue as can be, Dream a little dream of me. Stars fading, but I linger on, dear, Still craving your kiss. I'm longing to linger 'till dawn, dear, Just saying this: Sweet dreams 'till sunbeams find you, Sweet dreams that leave all worries behind you. But in your dreams, whatever they be. Dream a little dream of me. |

Nat King Cole - Straighten Up And Fly Right
 The buzzard took the monkey for a ride in the airThe monkey thought that everything was on the square The buzzard tried to throw the monkey off his back The monkey grabbed his neck and said now listen, jack Straighten up and fly right Straighten up and fly right Straighten up and fly right Cool down, papa, don’t you blow your top. Ain’t no use in jivin’ What’s the use in dabbin’ Straighten up and fly right Cool down, papa, don’t you blow your top. The buzzard told the monkey you’re chokin’ me Release your hold and I’ll set you free The monkey looked the buzzard right dead in the eye and said Your story’s fetchin’ but it sounds like a lie Straighten up and fly right Straighten up and do right Straighten up and fly right Cool down, papa, don’t you blow your top. Straighten up and fly right Straighten up and do right Straighten up and fly right Cool down, papa, don’t you blow your top. |
