Jack Edwards - "Death Defying"



https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Ufxs0NoVN8

Bring your fire,
Bring your rage.
Let your desert landscape,
See my rain.
Bring all your demons,
Out today,
And we’ll burn the embers,
Of old romance.
Old romance is dead.
We fight for what is left

You thought I was mean,
Didn’t you darling?
You thought I was mean,
Didn’t you darling?
But I’m death defying
Death defying
Death defying now

Bring your anger,
Bring your pain.
You shall have,
Your time again.
Spend your life in my ear.
Show me something,
Left to fear.
This old romance,
Is dead.
We fight for what is left

You thought I was mean,
Didn’t you darling?
You thought I was mean,
Didn’t you darling?
But I’m death defying
Death defying
Death defying now

You thought I was mean,
Didn’t you darling?
You thought I was mean,
Didn’t you darling?

You thought I was mean,
Didn’t you darling?
You thought I was mean,
Didn’t you darling?
But I’m death defying
Death defying
Death defying now

Porcelain Raft - "Drifting In And Out"


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5QuTPiaSjAs

Take me away, directionless
It doesn’t have to make any sense
Use what you have, i’ll follow you
Use what you have, don’t you worry now

Drifting in and out…

Choose what to be, take a side
What if i don’t want to step out in the light
Give it to others, just let it go now
Give it to others don’t you worry now

Drifting in and out…

The Velvelettes - "Needle In A Haystack"


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zhVXsBn1pOw

Well well, I once believed all fellas were nice
But girls, listen to me, take my advice
Girls, you'd better get yourselves onto my track
'Cause findin' a good man, girls, is like findin' a

(Needle in a haystack)
What did I say, girls?
(Needle in a haystack)
(She-doop, she-doop, la la, he-doop, she-doop, la la)

Girls, those fellas are sly, slick and shy
So don't you ever let 'em get you starry-eyed
Well, you may think their love is true
But they'll walk right over you

Now girls, you should know these things right off the back
'Cause findin' a good man, girls, is like findin' a

(Needle in a haystack)
What did I say, girls?
(Needle in a haystack)
(She-doop, she-doop, la la, he-doop, she-doop, la la)

Now girls, I say I'm tellin' you the natural facts
'Cause findin' a good man, girls, is like findin' a

(Needle in a haystack)
What did I say, girls?
(Needle in a haystack)

I'm tellin' you, girls, you'd better look before you leap
Still water sometimes runs very deep
You'll be sorry when you just jump
And do justice passed by love

Girls, you should know these things right off the back
'Cause findin' a good man, girls, is like findin' a

(Needle in a haystack)
What did I say, girls?
(Needle in a haystack)

I say you'd better take heed
(Needle in a haystack)
Listen to me
(Needle in a haystack)
(She-doop)

You'd better play hard to get
Or you're gonna regret
The day you were born, girl
When he leaves you alone, girl

Good guys are like findin' a
(Needle in a haystack)
Girls, they're like findin' a
(Needle in a haystack)

The Supremes - "Where Did Our Love Go?"


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=izzKUoxL11E&list=PLHPQHv36OgdauXIMhG_tXEhP6jXDoaSJG

Baby, baby
Baby don't leave me
Ooh, please don't leave me
All by myself

I've got this burning, burning
Yearning feelin' inside me
Ooh, deep inside me
And it hurts so bad

You came into my heart
So tenderly
With a burning love
That stings like a bee

Now that I surrender
So helplessly
You now wanna leave
Ooh, you wanna leave me

Ooh, baby, baby
Where did our love go?
Ooh, don't you want me
Don't you want me no more
Ooh, baby

Baby, baby
Where did our love go
And all your promisses
Of a love forever more

I've got this burning, burning
Yearning feelin' inside me
Ooh, deep inside me
And it hurts so bad

Before you won my heart
You were a perfect guy
But now that you got me
You wanna leave me behind
(Baby, baby) ooh baby

Baby, baby don't leave me
Ooh, please don't leave me
All by myself

Ooh, baby, baby
Where did our love go?

Gary Puckett And The Union Gap - "Young Girl"


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hn0ZJHVH17I

Young girl, get out of my mind
My love for you is way out of line
Better run, girl
You're much too young, girl

With all the charms of a woman
You've kept the secret of your youth
You led me to believe
You're old enough to give me Love
And now it hurts to know the truth, oh

Young girl, get out of my mind
My love for you is way out of line
Better run, girl
You're much too young, girl

Beneath your perfume and make-up
You're just a baby in disguise
And though you know
That it is wrong to be alone with me
That come on look is in your eyes, oh

Young girl, get out of my mind
My love for you is way out of line
Better run, girl
You're much too young, girl

So hurry home to your mama
I'm sure she wonders where you are
Get out of here before I have the time
To change my mind
'Cause I'm afraid we'll go too far, oh

Young girl, get out of my mind
My love for you is way out of line
Better run, girl
You're much too young, girl

Young girl, get out of my mind
My love for you is way out of line
Better run, girl
You're much too young, girl

Young girl, get out of my mind

The Tymes - "Ms. Grace"


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZEwfN7YNFr8

Ooh ooh ooh Miss Grace
Satin and perfume and lace
The minute I saw your face
I knew that I loved you

Hey you, listen to me
I got a lot of truth I want to tell you
I just met a woman who turned me upside down
The rivers turn in their beds
Flowers bloom where she treads
She turns an awful lot of heads
When she comes to town

Miss Grace when you walk by
You're the twinkle in my eye
There's no need to wonder why
I've fallen for you

Ooh ooh ooh Miss Grace
Satin and perfume and lace
The minute I saw your face
I knew that I loved you

Strangest thing of all you see
Is that this could happen to me
Lady Grace she said she'll be so fine
Someday I'll make her mine all mine

Ooh ooh ooh Miss Grace
Satin and perfume and lace
The minute I saw your face
I knew that I loved you

Ooh ooh ooh Miss Grace
Satin and perfume and lace
The minute I saw your face
I knew that I loved you

Otis Redding - "Sitting On The Dock Of The Bay|


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UCmUhYSr-e4

Sittin' in the mornin' sun
I'll be sittin' when the evenin' come
Watching the ships roll in
And then I watch 'em roll away again, yeah

I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay
Watching the tide roll away
Ooo, I'm just sittin' on the dock of the bay
Wastin' time

I left my home in Georgia
Headed for the 'Frisco bay
'Cause I've had nothing to live for
And look like nothin's gonna come my way

So I'm just gonna sit on the dock of the bay
Watching the tide roll away
Ooo, I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay
Wastin' time

Look like nothing's gonna change
Everything still remains the same
I can't do what ten people tell me to do
So I guess I'll remain the same, yes

Sittin' here resting my bones
And this loneliness won't leave me alone
It's two thousand miles I roamed
Just to make this dock my home

Now, I'm just gonna sit at the dock of the bay
Watching the tide roll away
Oooo-wee, sittin' on the dock of the bay
Wastin' time

(whistle)

(SITTIN' ON) THE DOCK OF THE BAY
- written by Otis Redding and Steve Cropper
- lyrics as recorded by Otis Redding December 7, 1967, just three
days before his death in a plane crash outside Madison, Wisconsin
- #1 for 4 weeks in 1968

Stevie Wonder - "I Just Called To Say I Love You"


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QwOU3bnuU0k

No New Year's Day to celebrate
No chocolate covered candy hearts to give away
No first of spring
No song to sing
In fact here's just another ordinary day

No April rain
No flowers bloom
No wedding Saturday within the month of June
But what it is, is something true
Made up of these three words that I must say to you

I just called to say I love you
I just called to say how much I care
I just called to say I love you
And I mean it from the bottom of my heart

No summer's high
No warm July
No harvest moon to light one tender August night
No autumn breeze
No falling leaves
Not even time for birds to fly to southern skies

No Libra sun
No Halloween
No giving thanks to all the Christmas joy you bring
But what it is, though old so new
To fill your heart like no three words could ever do

I just called to say I love you
I just called to say how much I care, I do
I just called to say I love you
And I mean it from the bottom of my heart

I just called to say I love you
I just called to say how much I care, I do
I just called to say I love you
And I mean it from the bottom of my heart, of my heart,
of my heart

I just called to say I love you
I just called to say how much I care, I do
I just called to say I love you
And I mean it from the bottom of my heart, of my heart,
baby of my heart

The Doors - "Riders On the Storm"


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DED812HKWyM

Riders on the storm
Riders on the storm
Into this house we're born
Into this world we're thrown
Like a dog without a bone
An actor out on loan
Riders on the storm

There's a killer on the road
His brain is squirmin' like a toad
Take a long holiday
Let your children play
If ya give this man a ride
Sweet family will die
Killer on the road, yeah

Girl ya gotta love your man
Girl ya gotta love your man
Take him by the hand
Make him understand
The world on you depends
Our life will never end
Gotta love your man, yeah

Riders on the storm
Riders on the storm
Into this house we're born
Into this world we're thrown
Like a dog without a bone
An actor out on loan

Riders on the storm
Riders on the storm
Riders on the storm
Riders on the storm

Riders on the storm
Riders on the storm

Barclay James Harvest - "Mocking Bird"



http://youtu.be/3frTqo_XZg4

Rain, sea, surf, sand, clouds and sky
Hush, now baby don't you cry

There's a mocking bird
Singing songs in the trees
There's a mocking bird
Singing songs just for you and me

Rain, sea, surf, sand clouds and sky
Time will see your tears run dry

There's a mocking bird
Singing songs in the trees
There's a mocking bird
Singing songs just for you and me

There's a mocking bird
Singing songs in the trees
There's a mocking bird
Singing songs just for you and me

Rain, sea, surf, sand, clouds and sun
Bless the tears of love, now gone

There's a mocking bird
Singing songs in the trees
There's a mocking bird singing songs
Singing just for you and me
