LYRICS
My melancholy baby
Come to me my melancholy baby,
Cuddle up and don't be blue . . .
All your fears are foolish fancy, maybe
You know dear that I'm in love with you!
Every cloud must have a silver lining
Wait until the sun shines through
Smile my honey dear, while I kiss away each tear
Or else I shall be melancholy too!
Every cloud must have a silver lining
Wait until the sun shines through
Smile my honey dear, while I kiss away each tear
Or else I shall be melancholy too!
Runaway
As I walk along I wonder
what went wrong with our love, a love that was so strong
and as i still walk on I think of the things we've done
together while our hearts were young
I'm a' walkin' in the rain, tears are fallin' and I feel the pain
wishin' you were here by me to end this misery and I wonder
I wa-wa-wa-wa-wonder why
why-why-why-why-why she ran away and I wonder
where she will stay, my little runaway
run-run-run-run, runaway
I'm a' walkin' in the rain, tears are fallin' and I feel the pain
wishin' you were here by me to end this misery and I wonder
I wa-wa-wa-wa-wonder why
why-why-why-why-why she ran away and i wonder
where she will stay, my little runaway
run-run-run-run, runaway

Honey Don´t
Well how can you say you will when you won't,
Say you do, baby, when you don't?
Tell the truth now, is love real?
But oh well honey don't, well honey don't,
Honey don't, honey don't, honey don't
I say you will when you won't, oh honey, don't.
Well I love you, baby, and you ought to know
I like the way you wear your clothes,
Everything about you is so doggone sweet,
You got that sand all over your feet.
[Oh, rock on George, one time for me.]
[I feel fine.]
[I'm sad.]
Well sometimes I love you on a Saturday night,
Sunday morning you don't look right.
You've been out painting the town,
uh baby, been stepping around.
Heart And Soul
Heart and soul I fell in love with you
Heart and soul the way a fool would do
Madly because you held me tight
And stole a kiss in the night
Heart and soul I begged to be adored
Lost control and tumbled overboard
Madly that magic night we kissed
There in the moonlight
Oh but your lips were thrilling much too thrilling
Never before were mine so strangly willing
Now I see what one embrace can do
C´mon and look at me it's got me lovin' you
Madly that little kiss you stole held all my heart and soul
Oh but your lips were thrilling much too thrilling
Never before were mine so strangly willing
But now I see what one embrace can do
C´mon and look at me it's got me lovin' you
Madly that little kiss you stole
Held all my heart and soul
Lana
Oh, beautiful Lana I told it my mama
And my dad what I had
She was the sweetest and the neatest
Little girl in the world
Oh la-la-la-la Lana
Oh La-la-la-la Lana
Oh beautiful Lana Don't you know that I wanna
Hug and kiss you Let you know that I miss you
While we're apart Oh my heart
All it can say is stay
Lana
O- oh Lana
Don't make me blue
O- oh Lana
Don't you know Don't you know
I love you
Oh beautiful Lana Don't you know that I wanna
Hug and kiss you Let you know that I miss you
While we're apart Oh my heart
All it can say is stay
Lana
Little
girl of mine
Oh little girl of mine
Gee, but you sure look fine
Yes, you appeal to me
I'll never set you free
'Cause you're my loving baby
You belong to me
That's the way it was meant to be, oh!
Oh little girl stay cool
That's all I ask of you
Be mine and mine alone
Call me on the telephone
'Cause you're my loving baby
You belong to me
That's the way it was meant to be, oh!
Oh baby now I know
I love you so
I'll never, never let you go
I need your love oh so much
I thrill to your touch
Oh little girl stay cool
That's all I ask of you
Be mine and mine alone
Call me on the telephone
Be my lovin' baby till the end of time
I can't seem to get you off my mind
It hurts to
be in love (Howie Greenfield - Helen Miller)
It hurts to be in love
When the only one you love
Turns out to be someone who's
Not in love with you
It hurts to love her so
When deep down inside you know
She will never want you
No matter what you do
And so you cry a little bit
(It hurts to be in love)
Ah, I die a little bit
(It hurts to be in love)
Day and night, night and day
It hurts to be in love this way
How long can I exist
Wanting lips I've never kissed
She gives all her kisses
To somebody else
She thinks I'm just a friend
Though it hurts I must pretend
The only way to keep her
Is to keep it to myself
And so I cry a little bit
(It hurts to be in love)
Oh, I die a little bit
(It hurts to be in love)
Day and night, night and day
It hurts to be in love this way
And so I cry a little bit
(It hurts to be in love)
Oh, I die a little bit
(It hurts to be in love)
Day and night, night and day
It hurts to be in love this way
It hurts to be in love
Day and night, night and day
It hurts to be in love
Night and day, day and night
It hurts to be in love
Day and night, night and day
Crying in the
rain
I'll never let you see
The way my broken heart is hurting me
I've got my pride and I know how to hide
All my sorrow and pain
I'll do my crying in the rain
If I wait for cloudy skies
You won't know the rain from the tears in my eyes
You'll never know that I still love you so
Though the heartaches remain
I'll do my crying in the rain
Raindrops falling from heaven
Could never wash away my misery
But since we're not together
I'll wait for stormy weather
To hide these tears I hope you'll never see
Someday when my crying's done
I'm gonna wear a smile and walk in the sun
I may be a fool
But till then, darling, you'll never see me complain
I'll do my craing in the rain
I'll do my crying in the rain
I'll do my crying in the rain
I'll do my crying in the rain
Promised Land
I left my home in norfolk virginia,
California on my mind.
Straddled that greyhound, rode him past raleigh,
On across caroline.
Stopped in charlotte and bypassed rock hill,
And we never was a minute late.
We was ninety miles out of atlanta by sundown,
Rollin' 'cross the georgia state.
We had motor trouble it turned into a struggle,
Half way 'cross alabam,
And that 'hound broke down and left us all stranded
In downtown birmingham.
Straight off, I bought me a through train ticket,
Ridin' cross mississippi clean
And I was on that midnight flyer out of birmingham
Smoking into new orleans.
Somebody help me get out of louisiana
Just help me get to houston town.
There's people there who care a little 'bout me
And they won't let the poor boy down.
Sure as you're born, they bought me a silk suit,
Put luggage in my hands,
And I woke up high over albuquerque
On a jet to the promised land.
Workin' on a t-bone steak a la carte
Flying over to the golden state;
The pilot told me in thirteen minutes
We'd be headin' in the terminal gate.
Swing low sweet chariot, come down easy
Taxi to the terminal zone;
Cut your engines, cool your wings,
And let me make it to the telephone.
Los angeles give me norfolk virginia,
Tidewater four ten o nine
Tell the folks back home this is the promised land callin'
And the poor boy's on the line
