Weep they will, will the lads down the street
When they find that you’re promised to me.
Weep they will, as their heart’s lose a beat
At the thought you’ll no longer be free.
Oh, smug, am I; warm and snug am I,
When you’re [...]

Ya see a pair of laughing eyes,
And suddenly you’re sighing sighs.
You’re thinkin’ nothin’s wrong,
You string along, boy, then SNAP!
Those eyes, those sighs -
They’re part of the tender trap.
You’re hand in hand beneath the trees,
And soon there’s music in the breeze.
You’re [...]

You will like the folks you meet in our town,
The folks you’ll meet on any street in our town.
Pick out any cottage, white or brown.
They’re all so appealing, with that “lived-in” feelin’.
You will like the shady lanes in our town.
The [...]

There’s a somebody I’m longing to see.
I hope that she turns out to be
Someone who’ll watch over me.
I’m a little lamb who’s lost in the wood.
I know I could, could always be good
To one who’ll watch over me.
Although I may [...]

Love and marriage, love and marriage,
Go together like a horse and carriage.
This I tell ya, brother, you can’t have one without the other.
Love and marriage, love and marriage,
It’s an institute you can’t disparage.
Ask the local gentry and they will say [...]

Waking skies at sunrise, every sunset, too,
Seems to be bringing me memories of you.
Here and there, everywhere – scenes that we once knew,
And they all just recall memories of you.
How I wish I could forget those happy yesteryears
That have left [...]

I love you. I love you.
Is all that I can say.
I love you. I love you.
The same old worlds I’m saying in the same old way.
I love you. I love you.
Three words that are divine.
And now, my dear, I’m waitin’ [...]

My lean baby, tall and thin,
5 feet 7 of bones and skin
But when she tells me, baby, she loves me
I feel as mellow as a fellow can be.
She’s so skinny, she’s so drawn,
When she stands sideways you’d think she’s gone
But [...]

The tables are empty, the dance floor’s deserted.
You play the same love song – it’s the 10th time you’ve heard it.
That’s the beginning, just one of the clues.
You’ve had your first lesson in learnin’ the blues.
The cigarettes you light, one [...]
