Heart Of My Heart", I love that melody
"Heart Of My Heart" brings back a memory
When we were kids on the corner of the street
We were rough 'n ready guys
But oh, how we could harmonize
"Heart Of My Heart" meant friends were dearer then
Too bad we had to part
I know a tear would glisten
If once more I could listen
To that gang that sang "Heart Of My Heart"
C'mon now, all you Awaders and every other kind of waders out there,
everybody sing! a-one a-two a-three...
"Heart Of My Heart", I love that melody...
I can't hear you: "HEART OF MY HEART BRING BACK A MEMORY...
Now that's much, much, better: WHEN WE WERE KIDS...
````````````````````````````````````````

My theme song  : A PIRATE LOOKS AT FORTY by Jimmy Buffet Mother, mother ocean, I have heard you call I've wanted to sail upon your waters since I was three feet tall You've seen it all, you've seen it all Watched the men who rode you switch from sails to steam And in your belly you hold the treasures few have ever seen Most of 'em dreams, most of 'em dreams Yes I am a pirate, two hundred years too late If the cannons don't thunder, there's nothin' to plunder I'm an over-forty victim of fate Arriving too late, arriving too late I've done a bit of smugglin', I've run my share of grass You see, I made enough money to buy Miami, but I pissed it away so fast Never meant to last, never meant to last Oh I have been drunk now for over two weeks I passed out and I rallied and I sprung a few leaks But I got to stop wishin', got to go fishin' Down to rock bottom again Just a few friends, just a few friends (instrumental) I go for younger women, lived with several awhile Though I ran 'em away, they'd come back one day Still could manage to smile Just takes a while, just takes a while Mother, mother ocean, after all the years I've found My occupational hazard being my occupation's just not around Feels like I've drowned, but I won't wear a frown Coda: Feels like I've drowned, gonna head uptown © 1972 by Jimmy Buffet

here's another pirate song:
At age 19 I was kidnapped by Turkish pirates - Mediterranean thugs
After some torture they considered me their mascot - a Cypriotic good luck
I had the taste of death and many other things
I had to pay the piper with my wedding ring
I would never see my family again.
By 25 I was respected as an equal - my art was a knife
On countless raids I was the first one up the lanyard
Yeah, I was seeking a fight
There is no time to pray, there's no time to beg
And then it's off with an arm or it's off with a leg
And if I spare your life, it's because the tide is leavin'.
By 31 I was the captain of a galleon - I was Poseidon's new son
The coast of ??? was my favourite target - Ah, it was ever such fun
We had no wooden legs or steel hooks
We had no black eyepatches or a starving cook
We were just killers with the cold eyes of a sailor.
"The Hook", by Stephen Malkmus

Performed by: Pinocchio (Dickie Jones)
Music: Leigh Harline
Lyrics: Ned Washington
[Pinocchio:]
I've got no strings
To hold me down
To make me fret, or make me frown
I had strings
But now I'm free
There are no strings on me
Hi-ho the me-ri-o
That's the only way to go
I want the world to know
Nothing ever worries me
* One sheet music version prints the bridge as this stanza:*
Hi-ho the me-ri-o
I'm as happy as can be
I want the world to know
Nothing ever worries me
I've got no strings
So I have fun
I'm not tied up to anyone
They've got strings
But you can see
There are no strings on me
[Dutch puppet:]
You have no strings
Your arms is free
To love me by the Zuider Zee
Ya, ya, ya
If you would woo
I'd bust my strings for you
[French puppet:]
You've got no strings
Comme ci comme ca
Your savoire-faire is ooh la la!
I've got strings
But entre nous
I'd cut my strings for you!
[Russian puppet:]
Down where the Volga flows
There's a Russian rendezvous
Where me and Ivan go
But I'd rather go with you, hey!

Blue jean baby, L.A. lady, seamstress for the band
Pretty eyed, pirate smile, you'll marry a music man
Ballerina, you must have seen her dancing in the sand
And now she's in me, always with me, tiny dancer in my hand

A small Jean Genie snuck off to the city
Strung out on lasers and slash back blazers
Ate all your razors while pulling the waiters
Talking bout Monroe and walking on Snow White
New York's a go-go and everything tastes right
Poor little Greenie
CHORUS
The Jean Genie lives on his back
The Jean Genie loves chimney stacks
He's outrageous, he screams and he bawls
Jean Genie let yourself go!

Wake up you sleepy head
Put on some clothes, shake up your bed
Put another log on the fire for me
I've made some breakfast and coffee
Look out my window and what do I see
A crack in the sky and a hand reaching down to me
All the nightmares came today
And it looks as though they're here to stay
What are we coming to
No room for me, no fun for you
I think about a world to come
Where the books were found by the Golden ones
Written in pain, written in awe
By a puzzled man who questioned
What we were here for
All the strangers came today
And it looks as though they're here to stay
Oh You Pretty Things
Don't you know you're driving your
Mamas and Papas insane
Oh You Pretty Things
Don't you know you're driving your
Mamas and Papas insane
Let me make it plain
You gotta make way for the Homo Superior
Look at your children
See their faces in golden rays
Don't kid yourself they belong to you
They're the start of a coming race
The earth is a bitch
We've finished our news
Homo Sapiens have outgrown their use
All the strangers came today
And it looks as though they're here to stay
Oh You Pretty Things
Don't you know you're driving your
Mamas and Papas insane
Oh You Pretty Things
Don't you know you're driving your
Mamas and Papas insane
Let me make it plain
You gotta make way for the Homo Superior
David Bowie

Wake up , Little Suzie, wake up;
wake up, little Suzie, wake up;
We've both been sound asleep -
Wake up little Suzie and weep -
the movie's over, it's four o'clock,
and we're in trouble deep --
Wake up Little Suzie;
We gotta go home.

SATURDAY NIGHT AT THE MOVIES
The Drifters
(writers Mann, Weil; 1964)
Well Saturday night at 8 o'clock
I know where I'm gonna go
I'm gonna pick my baby up
And take her to the picture show
Everybody in the neighbourhood
Is dressing up to be there too
And we're gonna have a ball
Just like we always do
Chorus:
Saturday night at the movies
Who cares what picture you see
When you're hugging with your baby in last row in the balcony
Well there's technicolor and cinemascope
A cast out of Hollywood
And the popcorn from the candy stand
Makes it all seem twice as good
There's always lots of pretty girls
With figures they don't try to hide
But they never can compare
To the girl sittin' by my side

Saturday Night (Is the Loneliest Night of the Week)
Saturday night is the loneliest night in the week
'Cause that's the night that my sweetie and I
Used to dance cheek to cheek
I don't mind Sunday night at all
'Cause that's the night friends come to call
And Monday to Friday go fast
And another week is past
But Saturday night is the loneliest night in the week
I sing the song that I sang for the memories I usually seek
Until I hear you at the door
Until you're in my arms once more
Saturday night is the loneliest night in the week
mmmm... Saturday night is the loneliest night in the week
I sing the song that I sang for the memories I usually seek
Until I hear you at the door
Until you're in my arms once more
Saturday night is the loneliest night in the week
Until I hear you at the door
Until you're in my arms once more
Saturday night is the loneliest night in the week

Saturday Night's Alright (For Fighting)
Music by Elton John
Lyrics by Bernie Taupin
Available on the album Goodbye Yellow Brick Road
It's getting late have you seen my mates
Ma tell me when the boys get here
It's seven o'clock and I want to rock
Want to get a belly full of beer
My old man's drunker than a barrel full of monkeys
And my old lady she don't care
My sister looks cute in her braces and boots
A handful of grease in her hair
Don't give us none of your aggravation
We had it with your discipline
Saturday night's alright for fighting
Get a little action in
Get about as oiled as a diesel train
Gonna set this dance alight
`Cause Saturday night's the night I like
Saturday night's alright alright alright
Well they're packed pretty tight in here tonight
I'm looking for a dolly who'll see me right
I may use a little muscle to get what I need
I may sink a little drink and shout out "She's with me!"
A couple of the sound that I really like
Are the sounds of a switchblade and a motorbike
I'm a juvenile product of the working class
Whose best friend floats in the bottom of a glass

It's Saturday night, all the kids are going down
Put on your bright suit, Billy, head for the right side of town
It's only eight o'clock but you're already bored
You don't know what it is, but there's gotta be more
You better find a way out
Hey! kick down the door
It's a rat-trap, and you've been caught!

There are three new movies op'ning tonight,
A baseball game, a championship fight,
A big band concert under the stars,
And a rodeo, Midget racing cars,
For some gals and gents the above events
hold their own vicarious charms,
But I'd rather go to a place I know,
Where I can hold you in my arms!
Chorus:
Hey there cutes, put on your dancin' boots and come dance with me,
Come dance with me, what an evening for some terpsichore.
Pretty face, I know a swingin' place, so come dance with me,
Romance with me on a crowded floor.
And while the rhythm swings, what lovely things I'll be sayin',
For what is dancing but making love set to music, playin'.
When the band begin to leave the stand and folks start to roam,
As we wing home, cheek to cheek we'll be,
Come on, come on, come on, come on and dance with me
[Repeat, but instead substitute the following words line 1:
dancin/Basie, line 5: lovely/cuckoo, line 8: wing/waltz and the first
3 "come on"'s in the last line are repeated.]
Sinatra: Come Dance with Me

Shall We Dance?
Lyrics: Ira Gershwin Music: George Gershwin
Drop that long face
Come on have your fling
Why keep nursing the blues?
If you want this old world on a string
Put on your dancing shoes
Stop wasting time
Put on your dancing shoes
Watch your spirits climb
Shall we dance
Or keep on mopin'?
Shall we dance
And walk on air?
Shall we give in to despair?
Or shall we dance with never a care?
Life is short
We're growing older
Don't you be an also-ran
You'd better dance, little lady
Dance, little man
Dance whenever you can.

This is nice, isn't it? I mean - the music.
This is nice, isn't it? I mean - the band.
Don't you think we make natural partners?
I mean, like food and drink, or supply and demand.
We're so right, aren't we? I mean - for dancing.
Hold me tight, cling to me! I mean - my hand.
I feel fine, I'm aglow with the Sunday shine
Could I be falling in - I mean to say, well anyway...
Isn't it grand?
Isn't It? - Stephen Sondheim

Drink to me only with thine eyes
And I will pledge with mine.
Or leave a kiss within the cup
And I'll not ask for wine.
The thirst that from the soul doth rise
Doth ask a drink divine;
But might I of Jove's nectar sip,
I would not change for thine.
I sent thee late a rosy wreath,
Not so much hon'ring thee
As giving it a hope that there
It could not withered be;
But thou thereon did'st only breathe,
And sent'st it back to me,
Since when it grows and smells, I swear
Not of itself, but thee.
Ben Johnson's poem "To Cecilia" set to music by ? disputed, interesting provenance.

well, if it old songs..
Believe me if all those
Endearing young charms
Which I gaze on so fondly today
Were to change by tomorrow
And fleet in my arms,
Like fairy gifts fading away
Though would'st still be adored
As this moment thou art
Let thy loveliness fade as it will
And around the dear ruin
Each wish of my heart
Would entwine itself
Verdantly still.
It is not while beauty
And youth are thine own
And thy cheeks
Unprofaned by a tear
That the ferver and faith
Of a soul can be known
To which time will but
Make thee more dear
No the heart that has truly loved
Never forgets
But as truly loves
On to the close
As the sunflower turns
On her god when he sets
The same look which
She'd turned when he rose.

Never knew I could feel like this
Like I've never seen the sky before
I want to vanish inside your kiss
Every day I love more and more
Listen to my heart, can you hear it sing
Telling me to give you everything
Seasons may change, winter to spring
But I love you until the end of time
Come what may
Come what may
I will love you
Until my dying day
Suddenly the world seems such a perfect place
Suddenly it moves with such a perfect grace
Suddenly my life doesn't seem such a waste
It all revolves around you
And there's no mountain too high
No river too wide
Sing out this song I'll be there by your side
Storm clouds may gather
And stars may collide
But I love you until the end of time
Oh, come what may, come what may
I will love you, I will love you
Suddenly the world seems such a perfect place

What do you get when you fall in love ?
You only get a lot of pain and sorrow;
And so - at least until tomorrow - I'll
Never fall in love again.

Don't interrupt the sorrow
Darn right
He says "We walked on the moon
You be polite."
Don't let up the sorrow
Death and birth and death and birth
He says "Bring that bottle kindly
And I'll pad your purse-
I've got a head full of quandary
And a mighty, mighty, thirst."
Don't Interrupt the Sorrow - Joni Mitchell

GIVE ME THAT WINE by Jon Hendricks
Well my wife got tired of me running around
So she tried to keep me at home
You know she bust my nose and hid my clothes
But I continued to roam
Until she finally hit my weakspot, threatened to throw my bottle out
From the basement to the rooftop everybody could hear me shout
Gimme that wine
Gimme that wine
Gimme that wine
You know I can't cut lose without my juice
Well one day when I was walking home to bed
A bandit jumped from the shadows, put a blackjack aside my head
That cat took my watch, my ring, my money and I did'nt make a sound
But when he reached in for my bottle Jim you could hear for blocks around
Gimme that wine
Gimme that wine
Gimme that wine
Beat my head out of shape but leave my grape
Well one day when I was laying down awful napping
When I woke up everything was burning
With a snap, and a crackle and a pop
You know the fireman chopped up my TV set and tore my apartment apart
But when he raised his axe on my bottle Jim I screamed with all my heart
Gimme that wine
Gimme that wine
Gimme that wine
Let me take one toast before I roast
Well one day when I was crossing the avenue
A big car knocked me down
When I was laying out down in the traffic
The crowd came from blocks around
You know the policeman were searchin' my pockets
Before they took me to the funeral parlour
When he reached in for my bottle Jim
I jumped straight up and commenced to holler
Gimme that wine
Gimme that wine
Gimme that wine
You know I can't get well without Muscatell
You know you can take all them Hollywood glamour girls
Rita Haywood, Bridgette Bardot, Lana Turner
Put them on a wall, put a gigantic book beside them
And tell me to take my choice
Well there be no doubt about the one I chose the minute I raise my voice
Gimme that wine
Gimme that wine
Gimme that wine
Well them chicks look fine but I love my wine
Now some folks like money, some like to dance and dine
But I be happy if you give me that wine
Can I have that bottle baby
Muscatell or half and half

We're a couple of swells
We stop at the best hotels
But we prefer the country far away from the city smells
We're a couple of sports
The pride of the tennis courts
In June, July and August we look cute when we're dressed in shorts
The Vanderbilts have asked us up for tea
We don't know how to get there, no sirree
No sirree...
We would ride up the avenue
but we haven't got the price
We would skate up the avenue
but there isn't any ice
We would ride on a bicycle
but we haven't got a bike
So we'll walk up the avenue
Yes we'll walk up the avenue
and to walk up the avenue's what we like
Wall Street bankers are we
With plenty of currency
We'd open up the safe but we forgot where we put the key
We're the favourite lads
Of girls in the picture ads
We'd like to tell who we kissed last night but we can't be cads
The Vanderbilts are waiting at the club
But how are we to get there, that's the rub
That's the rub...
We would sail up the avenue
but we haven't got a yacht
We would ride up the avenue
but the horse we had was shot
We would go on a trolleycar
but we haven't got the fare
So we'll walk up the avenue
Yes we'll walk up the avenue
And we'll walk up the avenue till we're there
[bridge]
We would swim up the avenue
but we haven't any lake
So we'll walk up the avenue
Yes we'll walk up the avenue
Yes a walk up the avenue's what we'll take!
Irving Berlin

SPECIAL: TODAY ONLY
TWO LIGHTNIN' RUBS FOR THE PRICE OF ONE
I met a pretty girl she was standing by a tub
Man she pulled me down in it and she begin to rub
It's mighty crazy, you know it's crazy
Just to keep on rubbing at that same ole thing.
I met a pretty girl all sharped out in blue
She saw me rubbin' so she started rubbin' too
It's mighty crazy, It's mighty crazy
Just to keep on rubbin' at that same ole thing.
Mama got the rub board, sister got the tub
They're going round doing the rub-de-rub
It's mighty crazy, it's Mighty crazy
Just to keep on rubbin' at that same ole thing
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Two old maids, they was layin' in a bed
One turned over and this is what she said
Ain't it crazy, ain't it crazy
Ain't it crazy one day, to keep on rubbin' that thing
Yeah mama killed a chicken, thought it was a duck
Put him on the table with his feet turned up
Ain't it crazy, ain't it crazy
Ain't it crazy one day, to keep on rubbin' that thing
There was two old maids, layin' in the sand
Each one wonderin' if the other was a man
Ain't it crazy, ain't it crazy
Ain't it crazy one day, to keep on rubbin' at that thing
IT"S MIGHTY CRAZY - LIGHTNIN' SLIM
AIN"T IT CRAZY - LIGHTIN' HOPKINS **

Crazy ... I'm crazy for feelin' so lonely
I'm crazy ... crazy for feelin' so blue
I knew you'd love me as long as you wanted,
And then someday, you'd leave me for somebody new
Worry ... why do I let myself worry?
Wonderin' ... what in the world did I do?
Oh, crazy ... for thinkin' that my love could hold you
I'm crazy for tryin', and crazy for cryin'
And I'm crazy for lovin' you
Crazy ... for thinkin' that my love could hold you
I'm crazy for tryin', and crazy for cryin'
And I'm crazy for lovin' you
"Crazy"
written by Willie Nelson
as sung by the inimitable Patsy Cline

Any w'on would have to be CRazY to follow the inimitable Patsy Cline, but I will...
I got a little girl she's my - Crazy Baby
The cutest in the world, she's my - Crazy Baby
I asked her for a date, she said, Crazy Baby
I said let's go make romance, ain't it - Crazy Baby
Everything is crazy when I'm with my Baby
Yes she's all I need
When I'm with my Baby everything is crazy
Yes indeed she's just my speed
I said how you like my car, she said Crazy Baby
Shining like a star ain't it Crazy Baby
I said Let's go to a dance, she said Crazy Baby
She put me in a trance she's my Crazy Baby
CRAZY BABY

The one time I saw my daddy dance
Watched him moving like a man in a trance
He brought it back from the war in France
Down on Copperline
Copperhead, Copper Beach,
Copper kettles sitting side by each
Copper core of a Georgia peach,
Down on Copperline

Well my name's John Lee Pettimore
Same as my daddy and his daddy before
You hardly ever saw Grandaddy down here
He only came to town about twice a year
He'd buy a hundred pounds of yeast and some copper line
Everybody knew that he made moonshine
Now the revenue man wanted Grandaddy bad
He headed up the holler with everything he had
It's before my time but I've been told
He never came back from Copperhead Road
Steve Earle, Copperhead Road

In this world, if you read the papers, Lord,
You know everybody’s fighting on with each other.
You got no one you can count on, baby,
Not even your own brother.
So if someone comes along,
He’s gonna give you some love and affection
I’d say get it while you can, yeah!
Honey, get it while you can,
Hey, hey, get it while you can,
Don’t you turn your back on love, no, no!
Don’t you know when you’re loving anybody, baby,
You’re taking a gamble on a little sorrow,
But then who cares, baby,
‘Cause we may not be here tomorrow, no.
And if anybody should come along,
He gonna give you any love and affection,
I’d say get it while you can, yeah!
Hey, hey, get it while you can,
Hey, hey, get it while you can.
Don’t you turn your back on love,
No no no, no no no no no.
Oh, get it while you can,
Honey get it when you’re gonna wanna need it dear, yeah yeah,
Hey hey, get it while you can,
Don’t you turn your back on love,
No no no, no no no no, get it while you can,
I said hold on to somebody when you get a little lonely, dear,
Hey hey, hold on to that man’s heart,
Yeah, get it, want it, hold it, need it,
Get it, want it, need it, hold it,
Get it while you can, yeah,
Honey get it while you can, baby, yeah,
Get it While You Can - Janis Joplin

I didn't mean to take you up all your sweet time
I'll give it right back to you one of these days
I said, I didn't mean to take you up all your sweet time
I'll give it right back to you one of these days
And if I don't meet you no more in this world
Then I'll, I'll meet you in the next one
And don't be late, don't be late
'Cause I'm a voodoo child
Lord knows I'm a voodoo child
I'm a voodoo child

Do, do, do
What you've done, done, done
Before, Baby.
Do, do, do
What I do, do, do
Adore, Baby.
Let's try again,
Sigh again,
Fly again to heaven.
Baby, see
It's A B C-
I love you and you love me.
I know, know, know
What a beau, beau, beau
Should do, Baby;
So, don't, don't, don't
Say it won't, won't, won't
Come true, Baby.
My heart begins to hum-
Dum de dum de dum-dum-dum,
So do, do, do
What you've done, done, done
Before.
Do, Do, Do~~from Oh, Kay, by George and Ira Gershwin
