I said you, you’re always gonna hurt me,
I said you’re always gonna let me down,
I said everywhere, every day, every day
And every way, every way.
Ah honey won’t you hold on to what’s gonna move.
I said it’s gonna disappear when you turn your back.
I said you know it ain’t gonna be there
When you wanna reach out and grab on.

Now if you feel that you can't go on (can't go on)
Because all of your hope is gone (all your hope is gone)
And your life is filled with much confusion (much confusion)
Until happiness is just an illusion (happiness is just an illusion)
And your world around is crumbling down, darlin
reach out come on girl reach on out for me
reach out reach out for me
I'll be there with a love that will shelter you
I'll be there with a love that will see you through
"Reach Out, I'll Be There"

whatta song!

I gave my love a cherry that had no stone;
I gave my love a chicken that had no bone;
I gave my love a ring that had no end;
I gave my love a baby with no cryin'.
Folk song from Kentucky
There are other versions of this folk song. One has the third line: "I gave my love a story that had no end."

Hush, little baby, don't say a word,
Mama's going to buy you a mockingbird.
And if that mockingbird don't sing,
Mama's going to buy you a diamond ring.
And if that diamond ring turns brass,
Mama's going to buy you a looking glass.
"Hush Little Baby"
~~Traditional Lullaby

This Diamond Ring
Who wants to bu-u-uy this diamond ri-i-i-ing?
She took it off her finger, now it doesn't mean a thi-i-i-ng
This diamond ring doesn't shine for me anymore
And this diamond ring doesn't mean what it meant before
So if you've got someone whose love is tru-u-ue
Let it shine for yo-ou-ou
This stone is genuine like love should be-e-e-e
And if your baby's truer than my baby was to me-e-e-e
This diamond ring can mean something beautiful
And this diamond ring can mean dreams that are coming true
And then your heart won't have to break like mine did
If there's love behind it

I found my girl
I'll tell the world
That heaven is missing an angel
My dreams came true (came true, came true)
When I found you
Yes heaven (heaven) is missing (missing) an angel (angel)
Not a day goes by
That I don't thank God for you
He blessed me with my angel
Though I don't deserve you
Before I met you girl
Lonely was my best friend
Now that you are in my life
I am stronger within

Oooo you make me live
Whatever this world can’t give to me
You, you’re all I see
Oooo you make me live now honey
Aww, you’re the best friend
That I’ve ever had
I’ve been with you such a long time
You’re my sunshine
And I want you to know that my feelings are true
I really love you.
You're my best friend

In the rain, the pavement shines like silver
All the lights are misty in the river
In the darkness, the trees are full of starlight
And all I see is him and me forever and forever

I run for the bus dear
While riding I think of us dear
I say a little prayer for you
At work I just take time
And all through my break
I say a little prayer for you
Forever and ever you’ll stay in my heart
And I will love you
Forever and ever we never will part
Oh how I love you
Together Forever
That’s how it must be
To live without you
Would only be heartbreak for me
I say a little prayer for you
- Dionne Warwick -

While I'm far away from you my baby
I know it's hard for you my baby
Because it's hard for me my baby
And the darkest hour is just before dawn
Each night before you go to bed my baby
Whisper a little prayer for me my baby
And tell all the stars above
This is dedicated to the one I love

It's been a hard day's night,
And I've been workin' like a dog,
It's been a hard day's night,
I should be sleeping' like a log.

Angel:
Here's another version of this lullaby:
Hush, little baby, don't say a word,
Mama goin' to buy you a mockin' bird.
If that mockin' bird don't sing,
Mama goin' to buy you a diamond ring.
If that diamond ring get broke,
Mama goin' to buy you a billy goat.
If that billy goat fall down,
Mama's li'l baby's the sweetest in town.

Thanks Paulb, never did I think I could work in my favorite goat song. This is the only song that Sonny Boy Williamson ever wrote about the Civil Right's movement.
THE GOAT >Sonny Boy<
There was an animal, they called the goat
He butted his way, onto the Supreme Court
So let him go, please, please, let him go
'cause he's worked so hard,
we can't use him in our Court no mo'
The medicine doctor bought the billy goat
Had a big stage show
the billy goat got mad and knocked him down,
and on some flo'
'bout that time the High Sheriff
happened to be caming along,
and caught the billy goat eating up, the ole farmers corn
The High Sheriff carried the billy goatto the county jail,
but the Desk Sargent said "I'll go his bail!"
So let him go. Please please, let him go
'cause he worked so hard we can't use him in our court no mo'

Stagger Lee met Billy and they got down to gamblin'
Stagger Lee throwed seven, and Billy said that he throwed eight
Then Billy said "Hey Stagger, I'm gonna make my big attack
I'm gonna have to leave my knife in your back"

Oh, the shark has pretty teeth, dear
And he shows them, pearly white
Just a jack knife has Macheath, dear
And he keeps it out of sight
When the shark bites with his teeth, dear
Scarlet billows start to spread
Fancy gloves though wears Macheath, dear
So there not a trace of red

Born a natural loser -- can't recall just where
Raised on brew and poker and a dollar here and there
Blackjack hand, dealer man, you better pay off that last bet
Two-bit hand, a 21 is all I ever get
Go down gamblin', say it when you're runnin' low
Go down gamblin' -- you may never have to go
Down in a crap game, I've been losin' at roulette
Cards are bound to break me, but I ain't busted yet
'Cause I've been called a natural lover by that lady over there
Honey, I'm just a natural gambler but I try to do my share
Go Down Gamblin', Blood, Sweat & Tears
Your Happy Epeolatrist!

I would never be able to forgive myself if I didn't cross thread this one!  Lookin out on the morning rain (Ah-ooo) I used to feel so uninspired (Ah-ooo) And when I knew I had to face another day (Ah-ooo) Lord it made me feel so tired Before the day I met you Life was so unkind But your love the key to my piece of mind Cause you make me feel You make me feel You make me feel Like a natural woman (woman) " A Natural Woman" ~~the queen of soul........Aretha Franklin
