All I Want For Christmas

Written by Maria Carey and Walter Afanasieff
Performed by Maria Carey


I don't want a lot for Christmas
There's just one thing I need
I don't care about the presents
Underneath the Christmas tree
I just want you for my own
More than you could ever know
Make my wish come true...
All I want for Christmas
Is you...

I don't want a lot for Christmas
There is just one thing I need
I don't care about the presents
Underneath the Christmas tree
I don't need to hang my stockings
There upon the fireplace
Santa Clause won't make me happy
With a toy on Christmas day
I just want you for my own
More than you could ever know
Make my wish come true
All I want for Christmas is you...
You baby

I won't ask for much this Christmas
I won't even wish for snow
I'm just gonna keep on waiting
Underneath the mistletoe
I won't make a list and send it
To the north pole for Saint nick
I won't even stay awake to
Hear those magic reindeer click
'Cause I just want you here tonight
Holding on to me so tight
What more can I do
Baby all I want for Christmas is you
You...

All the lights are shining
So brightly everywhere
And the sound of children’s
Laughter fills the air
And everyone is singing
I hear those sleigh bells ringing
Santa won't you bring me the one I really need
Won't you please bring my baby to me...

Oh I don't want a lot for Christmas
This is all I'm asking for
I just want to see my baby
Standing right outside my door
Oh I just want you for my own
More than you could ever know
Make my wish come true
Baby all I want for Christmas is
You

Private Eyes

Written by Daryl Hall, Warren Pash, Sara Allen and Janna Allen
Performed by Hall and Oates


I see you, you see me
Watch you blowin the lines when you're making a scene
Oh girl, you’ve got to know
What my head overlooks
The senses will show to my heart
When it's watching for lies
You can't escape my
Private eyes
They're watching you
They see your every move
Private eyes
They're watching you
Private eyes
They're watching you watching you watching you watching you

You play with words you play with love
You can twist it around baby that aint enough
Cause girl I’m gonna know
If you're letting me in or letting me go
Don't lie when you're hurting inside
Cause you can't escape my
Private eyes
They're watching you
They see your every move
Private eyes
They're watching you
Private eyes
They're watching you watching you watching you watching you

Why you try to put up a front for me
I’m a spy but on your side you see
Slip on, into any disguise
I’ll still know you
Look into my private eyes

Pure Imagination

Written by Leslie Bricusse and Anthony Newley
Performed by Gene Wilder


{Hold your breath
Make a wish
Count to three}

Come with me and you'll be
In a world of pure imagination
Take a look and you'll see
Into your imagination

We'll begin with a spin
Traveling in the world
Of my creation
What we'll see
Will defy explanation

If you want to view paradise
Simply look around and view it
Anything you want to, do it
Wanna change the world?
There's nothing to it

There is no life I know
To compare with
Pure imagination
Living there, you'll be free
If you truly wish to be

If you want to view paradise
Simply look around and view it
Anything you want to, do it
Wanna change the world?
There's nothing to it

There is no life I know
To compare with
Pure imagination
Living there, you'll be free
If you truly wish to be

If Your Heart Aint Busy Tonight

Written by Christopher Dunn and Thomas Shapiro
Performed by Tanya Tucker


If your heart ain't busy tonight
Maybe it would like to get with mine
If your heart ain't busy tonight
Well I could keep it occupied for a long long time
If your lips ain't got something pressing to do
If your arms aren't held up, well their invited too
If your heart ain't busy tonight
Maybe it would like to get with mine
Anytime

Well it's kind of you to lend me an ear
Well that's a start but I believe
If I could only get the rest of you over here
Then all of you might fall in love with all of me
If your heart ain't busy tonight
Maybe it would like to get with mine
Anytime - Oh-yeah

If your feet are restless for somewhere to go
And your eyes want something more to see
Why don't you let them lead the rest of you to my door
So all of you can fall in love with all of me

If your heart ain't busy tonight
Well maybe it would like to get with mine
If your heart ain't busy tonight
Well I could keep it occupied for a long long time
Yes I could

If your lips ain't got something pressing to do
If your arms aren't held up, well they're invited too
If your heart ain't busy tonight
Maybe it would like to get with mine
If your heart ain't busy tonight
Maybe it would like to get with mine
Anytime Uh-Uh

Whenever I Call You Friend

Written by Kenny Loggins and Melissa Manchester
Performed by Kenny Loggins and Stevie Nicks


Whenever I call you "friend", I begin to think I understand
Anywhere we are, you and I have always been, ever and ever
I see myself within your eyes, and that's all I need to show me why
Everything I do always takes me home to you, ever and ever
'n now I know my life has given me more than memories, day by day, we can see
In every moment there's a reason to carry on 

Chorus:
Sweet love's showin' us a heavenly light, never seen such a beautiful sight
See love glowin' on us every night, I know forever we'll be doin' it right 

Whenever I call you "friend", I believe I've come to understand
Everywhere we are, you and I were meant to be, forever and ever
I think about the times to come, knowin' I will be the lucky one
And ever our love will last, I always want to call you "friend" 

Chorus
(instrumental break) 

An' now I know my life has given me more than memories, day by day
We can see, in every moment there's a reason to carry on 

Chorus repeats 2x –


doin' it, doin' it
Sweet love (repeats out)...
you're the glowin' light in my life, source of pride in my life
everything I do takes me back to you, whenever I call you friend...

I Never Promised You A Rose Garden

Written by Joe South
Performed by Lynn Anderson


I beg your pardon I never promised you a rose garden
Along with the sunshine there's gotta be a little rain sometime
When you take you gotta give so live and let live and let go oh oh oh oh
I beg your pardon I never promised you a rose garden

I could promise you things like big diamond rings
But you don't find roses growin' on stalks of clover
So you better think it over
Well, if sweet talking you could make it come true
I would give you the world right now on a silver platter
But what would it matter
So smile for a while and let's be jolly love shouldn't be so melancholy
Come along and share the good times while we can

I beg your pardon I never promised you a rose garden
Along with the sunshine there's gotta be a little rain sometime
I beg your pardon I never promised you a rose garden

I could sing you a tune and promise you the moon
But if that's what it takes to hold you I'd just as soon let you go
But there's one thing I want you to know
You'd better look before you leap still waters run deep
And there won't always be someone there to pull you out
And you know what I'm talking about
So smile for a while and let's be jolly love shouldn't be so melancholy
Come along and share the good times while we can

I beg your pardon I never promised you a rose garden
Along with the sunshine there's gotta be a little rain sometime

I beg your pardon I never promised you a rose garden
Along with the sunshine there's gotta be a little rain sometime

Paperback writer, paperback writer.
Dear Sir or Madam will you read my book,
It took me years to write will you take a look,
Based on a novel by a man named Lear,
And I need a job,
So I want to be a paperback writer,
Paperback writer.
It’s a dirty story of a dirty man,
And his clinging wife doesn’t understand.
His son is working for the Daily Mail,
It’s a steady job,
But he wants to be a paperback writer,
Paperback writer.
It’s a thousand pages give or take a few,
I’ll be writing more in a week or two,

I can change it round,
And I want to be a paperback writer,
Paperback writer.

It could make a million for you overnight,
If you must return it you can send it here,
But I need a break,
And I want to be a paperback writer,

(There's No Place Like) Home For The Holidays

Written by Robert Nevil and Matthew Gerrard
Performed by Perry Como


Oh, theres no place like home for the holidays
'Cause no matter how far away you roam
When you pine for the sunshine of a friendly gaze
For the holidays, you cant beat home, sweet home

I met a man who lives in Tennessee and he was headin for
Pennsylvania and some home made pumpkin pie
From Pennsylvania folks are travelin down to Dixie's sunny shore
From Atlantic to Pacific, gee, the traffic is terrific

Oh there's no place like home for the holidays
'Cause no matter how far away you roam
If you want to be happy in a million ways
For the holidays, you cant beat home, sweet home

From Pennsylvania folks are travelin down to Dixie's sunny shore
From Atlantic to Pacific, oh, The traffic is terrific

Oh there's no place like home for the holidays
'Cause no matter how far away you roam
If you want to be happy in a million ways
For the holidays, you cant beat home, sweet home

Home, sweet home, home, sweet home

Hey, mama make that pumpkin pie

There's somethin' in my eye
Mama please keep me dry
Oh.... (fade)

The Air That I Breathe

Written by Mike Hazlewood and Albert Hammond
Performed by kd lang


If I could make a wish, I think I'd pass
Can't think of anything I need
No cigarettes, no sleep, no light, no sound
Nothing to eat, no books to read

Making love with you has left me peaceful, warm and tired
What else could I ask, there's nothing to be desired

Peace came upon me and it leaves me weak
So sleep, silent angel, go to sleep

Sometimes

All I need is the air that I breathe and to love you
All I need is the air that I breathe and to love you
All I need is the air that I breathe ...

Making love with you has left me peaceful, warm and tired
What more could I ask, there's nothing to be desired

Sometimes
All I need is the air that I breathe and to love you
All I need is the air that I breathe and to love you
All I need is the air that I breathe ...

Peace came upon me and it leaves me weak
So sleep, silent angel, go to sleep

Sleep, silent angel, go to sleep ...

Heroes and Villians

Written by Brian Wilson and Van Dyke Parks
Performed by The Beach Boys


I’ve been in this town so long that back in the city
I’ve been taken for lost and gone
And unknown for a long long time

Fell in love years ago
With an innocent girl
From the Spanish and Indian home
Home of the heroes and villains

Once at night catillian squared the fight
And she was right in the rain of the bullets that eventually brought her down
But she's still dancing in the night
Unafraid of what a dude'll do in a town full of heroes and villains

Heroes and villains
Just see what you’ve done

Heroes and villains
Just see what you’ve done

Stand or fall I know there
Shall be peace in the valley
And it's all an affair
Of my life with the heroes and villains

My children were raised
You know they suddenly rise
They started slow long ago
Head to toe healthy wealthy and wise

I’ve been in this town so long
So long to the city
I’m fit with the stuff
To ride in the rough
And sunny down snuff I’m alright
By the heroes and

Heroes and villains
Just see what you’ve done

Heroes and villains
Just see what you’ve done

John Deere Green

Written by Dennis Linde
Performed by Joe Diffie


They were farm kids way down in Dixie
They met in high school in the sixties
Everyone knew it was love from the start
One July in the midnight hour
He climbed up on the water tower
Stood on the rail and painted a 10ft heart
In John Deere green

On a hot summer night
He wrote Billy Bob loves Charlene
In letters 3 foot high
And the whole town said that he should have used red
But it looked good to Charlene
In John Deere green

They settled down on 80 acres
Raising sweet corn, kids and tomatoes
They went together like a hand and a glove
On a clear day from their front yard
If you look and know what to look for
Off to the east you can still read his words of love
In John Deere green

On a hot summer night
He wrote Billy Bob loves Charlene
In letters 3 foot high
And the whole town said the boy should have used red
But it looked good to Charlene
In John Deere green

Now more than once the town has discovered
Painting over it ain't no use
There ain't no paint in the world that'll cover it
The heart keeps showing through
In John Deere green

On a hot summer night
He wrote Billy Bob loves Charlene
In letters 3 foot high
And the whole town said that the fool should have used red
But it looked good to Charlene
In John Deere green

Ahh, paint it green boy
In John Deere green

On a hot summer night
He wrote Billy Bob loves Charlene
In letters 3 foot high
And the whole town said the boy should have used red
But it looked good to Charlene
In John Deere green

John Deere green

He's So Shy

Written by Tom Snow and Cynthia Weil
Performed by The Pointer Sisters


When I first saw him standin' there
I longed to speak but did not care
Something inside whispered to me
You'd better move in carefully
And then he smiled and turned away
That told me all he could not say
That's when I knew
He wanted me too
But I'd have to do some breakin' through 
He's so shy, he's so shy
That sweet little boy who caught my eye
He's so shy, he's so shy
And he's much too good to let me get by
Oh, yes,he is 

Now holding him gently through the night
Nothin' has ever felt so right
And I'm so glad I took the time
That I had to take to make him mine
He can still do things to my heart
Just like he did right from the start
Each time I see That quality
That never stops attracting me
He's so shy, he's so good looking
He's so shy, yes he's really got me going
That sweet little boy who caught my eye
He's so shy, I'm so glad I got to know him
He's so shy, cause he's one in a million
And I love him till the day I die
Oh, yes, I will
He's so shy, That's why I love my baby
He's so shy, I know it's drivin' me crazy
That sweet little boy who caught my eye
He's so shy, it took a long time to know him
He's so shy, and I'm glad get to show him
That I'll love him 'till the day I die
He's so shy, He's so shy

Fernando

Written by Stig Anderson, Benny Anderson, Bjoern Ulvaeus, Buddy McCluskey, Mary McCluskey
Performed by ABBA


Can you hear the drums Fernando?
I remember long ago another starry night like this
In the firelight Fernando
You were humming to yourself and softly strumming your guitar
I could hear the distant drums
And sounds of bugle calls were coming from afar

They were closer now Fernando
Every hour every minute seemed to last eternity
I was so afraid Fernando
We were young and full of life and none of us prepared to die
And I'm not ashamed to say
The roar of guns and cannons almost made me cry

There was something in the air that night
The stars were bright, Fernando
They were shining there for you and me
For liberty, Fernando
Though I never thought that we could lose
There's no regret
If I had to do the same again
I would, my friend, Fernando

Now we're old and grey Fernando
And since many years I haven't seen a rifle in your hand
Can you hear the drums Fernando?
Do you still recall the frightful night we crossed the Rio Grande?
I can see it in your eyes
How proud you were to fight for freedom in this land

There was something in the air that night
The stars were bright, Fernando
They were shining there for you and me
For liberty, Fernando
Though I never thought that we could lose
There's no regret
If I had to do the same again
I would, my friend, Fernando

There was something in the air that night
The stars were bright, Fernando
They were shining there for you and me
For liberty, Fernando
Though I never thought that we could lose
There's no regret
If I had to do the same again
I would, my friend, Fernando
Yes, if I had to do the same again
I would, my friend, Fernando...

White Christmas

Written by Irving Berlin
Performed by The Drifters


I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
Just like the ones I used to know
Where the tree tops glisten
And children listen
To hear sleigh bells in the snow

I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
With every Christmas card I write
May your days be merry and bright
And may all
Your Christmases be white

I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
Just like the ones I used to know
Where the tree tops glisten
And children listen
To hear sleigh bells in the snow

I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
With every Christmas card I write
May your days be merry and bright
And may all your Christmases
May all your Christmases
May all your Christmases
May all your Christmases be white

Well I love her
But I love to fish
I spend all day out on this lake
And hell is all I catch
Today she met me at the door
Said I would have to choose
If I hit that fishin' hole today
She'd be packin' all her things
And she'd be gone by noon

Well I'm gonna miss her
When I get home
But right now I'm on this lakeshore
And I'm sittin' in the sun
I'm sure it'll hit me
When I walk through that door tonight
That I'm gonna miss her
Oh, lookie there, I've got a bite

Now there's a chance that if I hurry
I could beg her to stay
But that water's right
And the weather's perfect
No tellin' what I might catch today

Well I'm gonna miss her
When I get home
But right now I'm on this lakeshore
And I'm sittin' in the sun

I Love This Bar

Written by Toby Keith and Scott Emerick
Performed by Toby Keith


We got winners, we got losers
Chain smokers and boozers
And we got yuppies, we got bikers
We got thirsty hitchhikers
And the girls next door dress up like movie stars

Hmm, hmm, hmm I love this bar

We got cowboys, we got truckers
Broken-hearted fools and suckers
And we got hustlers, we got fighters
Early birds and all-nighters
And the veterans talk about their battle scars

Hmm, hmm, hmm I love this bar

[Chorus:]
I love this bar
It's my kind of place
Just walkin' through the front door
Puts a big smile on my face
It ain't too far, come as you are
Hmm, hmm, hmm I love this bar

I've seen short skirts, we got high-techs
Blue-collar boys and rednecks
And we got lovers, lots of lookers
And I've even seen dancing girls and hookers
And we like to drink our beer from a mason jar

Hmm, hmm, hmm I love this bar
Yes I do

I like my truck (I like my truck)
I like my girlfriend (I like my girlfriend)
I like to take her out to dinner
I like a movie now and then

But I love this bar
It's my kind of place
Just trollin' around the dance floor
Puts a big smile on my face
No cover charge, come as you are
Hmm, hmm, hmm I love this bar
Hmm, hmm, hmm I love this bar

We got divorcees and a big bouncer man
An old jukebox and a real bad band
We got waitresses and we got barflies
A dumb-ass and a wise-guy
If you get too drunk just sleep out in your car

Reason number 672 why

Hmm, hmm, hmm I love this bar
Play it on out boys
Beer-thirty's over
Got to take it on home

Hmm, hmm, hmm I love this bar
I just love it

Performed by The B-52s


Summer of love
Summer of love

I've been waiting for the man
Just buzzin' around downtown
Waiting for that very special
Comes in to see what I got
Orange Popsicles and lemonade

It's the summer of love, love, love
I'm in love with love, love, love
For everyone transcends here
I'm thinking of you, boy

Love energy is giving us a shove
Making this the summer of love
I said, "I see no clouds ahead"
Summer of love
Summer of love

I'm standing in the rain
Just feeling the nitty-gritty of the whole thing
Everything is very special
Look in and see what I got
Orange Popsicles and lemonade

It's the summer of love, love, love
I'm in love with love, love, love
For everyone transcends here
I'm thinking of you, boy
Love energy is giving us a shove
Making this the summer of love
Summer of love
Summer of love
Summer of love

It's the summer of love, love, love
I'm in love with love, love, love
(For everyone)

It's the summer of love, love, love
I'm in love with love, love, love
(For everyone)

It's the summer of love, love, love
I'm in love with love, love, love
(For everyone)

It's the summer of love, love, love
I'm in love with love, love, love
(For everyone)

It's the summer of love, love, love
I'm in love with love, love, love
(For everyone)


For everyone, for everyone, for everyone
For everyone, for everyone, for everyone
For everyone, for everyone
One, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one

Amazing Grace

Written by John Newton


Amazing grace! How sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me.
I once was lost, but now am found,
Was blind, but now I see.

'Twas grace that taught my heart to fear,
And grace my fears relieved.
How precious did that grace appear
The hour I first believed.

Through many dangers, toils and snares
I have already come;
'Tis grace has brought me safe thus far
And grace will lead me home.

The Lord has promised good to me
His word my hope secures;
He will my shield and portion be,
As long as life endures.

Yea, when this flesh and heart shall fail,
And mortal life shall cease,
I shall possess within the veil,
A life of joy and peace.

When we've been there ten thousand years
Bright shining as the sun,
We've no less days to sing God's praise
Than when we've first begun.

Modern Love

Written by David Bowie
Performed by David Bowie


I know when to go out
And when to stay in
Get things done [spoken]

I catch a paper boy
But things don't really change
I'm standing in the wind
But I never wave bye-bye

But I try
I try

There's no sign of life
It's just the power to charm
I'm lying in the rain
But I never wave bye-bye

But I try
I try

Never gonna fall for
Modern Love walks beside me
Modern Love walks on by
Modern Love gets me to the Church on Time
Church on Time terrifies me
Church on Time makes me party
Church on Time puts my trust in God and Man
God and Man no confessions
God and Man no religion
God and Man don't believe
In Modern Love

Eye Of The Tiger

Written by Frankie Sullivan and Jim Peterik
Performed by Survivor


Risin' up back on the street
Did my time, took my chances
Went the distance now I'm back on my feet
Just a man and his will to survive
So many times, it happens too fast
You trade your passion for glory
Don't lose your grip on the dreams of the past
You must fight just to keep them alive

(Chorus)
It's the Eye of the Tiger
It's the thrill of the fight
Rising up to the challenge of our rival
And the last known survivor
Stalks his prey in the night
And he's watching us all
With the Eye of the Tiger

Face to face, out in the heat
Hangin' tough, stayin' hungry
They stack the odds till' we take to the street
For we kill with the skill to survive

(Repeat Chorus)

Risin' up straight to the top
Had the guts, got the glory
Went the distance, now I'm not gonna stop
Just a man and his will to survive

It's the Eye of the Tiger
It's the thrill of the fight
Rising up to the challenge of our rival
And the last known survivor
Stalks his prey in the night
And he's watching us all
With the Eye of the Tiger.

The Eye of the Tiger
The Eye of the Tiger
The Eye of the Tiger
The Eye of the Tiger

Born At The Right Time

Written by Paul Simon
Performed by Paul Simon


Down among the reeds and rushes
A baby boy was found
His eyes as clear as centuries
His silky hair was brown

Never been lonely
Never been lied to
Never had to scuffle in fear
Nothing denied to
Born at the instant
The church bells chime
And the whole world whispering
Born at the right time

Me and my buddies we are travelling people
We like to go down to restaurant row
Spend those euro-dollars
All the way from washington to tokyo
I see them in the airport lounge
Upon their mother's breast
They follow me with open eyes
Their uninvited guest

Never been lonely
Never been lied to
Never had to scuffle in fear
Nothing denied to
Born at the instant
The church bells chime
And the whole world whispering
Born at the right time

Too many people on the bus from the airport
Too many holes in the crust of the earth
The planet groans
Every time it registers another birth

But among the reeds and rushes
A baby girl was found
Her eyes as clear as centuries
Her silky hair was brown

Never been lonely
Never been lied to
Never had to scuffle in fear
Nothing denied to
Born at the instant
The church bells chime
And the whole world whispering
Born at the right time

Little Miss Can't Be Wrong

Written by Christopher Gross, Eric Schenkman, Mark White and Aaron Comess
Performed by Spin Doctors


Been a whole lot easier since the bitch left town
Been a whole lot happier without her face around
Nobody upstairs gonna stomp and shout,
Nobody at the back door gonna throw my laundry out
She hold the shotgun while you do-si-do
She want one man made of Hercules and Cyrano
Been a whole lot easier since the bitch is gone
Little miss, little miss can't be wrong

Little miss, little miss, little miss can't be wrong
Ain't nobody gonna bow no more when you sound your gong.
Little miss, little miss, little miss can't be wrong
What'cha gonna do to get into another one of these rock 'n' roll
Songs?

Other peoples' thoughts they ain't your hand-me-downs
Would it be so bad to simply turn around
You cook so well, all nice and french
You do you brain surgery too, with a monkey wrench

Little miss, little miss, little miss can't be wrong...

I hope those cigarettes gonna make you cough
Hope you hear this song and it pissed you off
I take that back I hope your doing fine
And if I had a dollar I might give you ninety-nine

Little miss, little miss, little miss can't be wrong....

Our House

Written by Graham Nash
Performed by Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young

I'll light the fire
You place the flowers in the vase
That you bought today

Staring at the fire
For hours and hours
While I listen to you
Play your love songs
All night long for me
Only for me

Come to me now
And rest your head for just five minutes
Everything is done
Such a cosy room
The windows are illuminated
By the evening sunshine through them
Fiery gems for you
Only for you

Our house is a very, very, very fine house
With two cats in the yard
Life used to be so hard
Now everything is easy
'Cause of you
And our la,la,la, la,la, etc.

Our house is a very, very, very fine house
With two cats in the yard
Life used to be so hard
Now everything is easy
'Cause of you
And our

I'll light the fire
While you place the flowers in the vase
That you bought today
