Material Girl

Written by Peter Brown and Robert Rans
Performed by Madonna

Some boys kiss me
Some boys hug me
I think they're ok
If they don't give me proper credit
I just walk away

They can beg and they can plead
But they can't see the light (that's right)
'Cause the boy with the cold hard cash
Is always Mister Right

'Cause we are living in a material world
And I am a material girl
You know that we are living in a material world
And I am a material girl

Some boys romance
Some boys slow dance
That's all right with me
If they can't raise my interest then I
Have to let them be

Some boys try and some boys lie but
I don't let them play (no way)
Only boys who save their pennies
Make my rainy day

'Cause we're living in a material world
And I am a material girl
You know that we are living in a material world
And I am a material girl
Living in a material world
And I am a material girl
You know that we are living in a material world
And I am a material girl

Living in a material world (material)
Living in a material world
Living in a material world (material)
Living in a material world

Boys may come and boys may go
And that's all right you see
Experience has made me rich
And now they're after me

'Cause everybody's living in a material world
And I am a material girl
You know that we are living in a material world
And I am a material girl
Living in a material world
And I am a material girl
You know that we are living in a material world
And I am a material girl

A material, a material, a material, a material world

Living in a material world (material)
Living in a material world
Living in a material world (material)
Living in a material world

Living in a material world (material)
Living in a material world
Living in a material world (material)
Living in a material

I Surrender All

Text by J.W. Van Deventer, Music by W.S. Weeden

All to Jesus I surrender;
all to him I freely give;
I will ever love and trust him,
in his presence daily live.

Refrain:
I surrender all, I surrender all,
all to thee, my blessed Savior,
I surrender all.

All to Jesus I surrender;
humbly at his feet I bow,
worldly pleasures all forsaken;
take me, Jesus, take me now.
(Refrain)

All to Jesus I surrender;
make me, Savior, wholly thine;
fill me with thy love and power;
truly know that thou art mine.
(Refrain)

All to Jesus I surrender;
Lord, I give myself to thee;
fill me with thy love and power;
let thy blessing fall on me.
(Refrain)

All to Jesus I surrender;
now I feel the sacred flame.
O the joy of full salvation!
Glory, glory, to his name!
(Refrain)

Breakfast in America

Written by Richard Davies, Charles Hodgson and Roger Pomfret
Performed by Supertramp

Take a look at my girlfriend
She's the only one I got
Not much of a girlfriend
I've never seem to get a lot

Take a jumbo across the water
Like to see America
See the girls in California
I'm hopin', it's going to come true
But there's not a lot, I can do

Could we have kippers for breakfast
Mummy dear, Mummy dear
They got to have 'em in Texas
'Cos everyone's a millionaire

I'm a winner, I'm a sinner
Do you want my autograph
I'm a loser, what a joker
I'm playing my jokes upon you
While there's nothin' better to do
Hey

Papararam pano daram no no no
Papararam pano daram no no no
Na na na nana na na na

Don't you look at my girlfriend
(Girlfriend)
She's the only one I got
Not much of a girlfriend
(Girlfriend)
I've never seem to get a lot
(What she got in another land)

Take a jumbo cross the water
Like to see America
See the girls in California
I'm hoping it's going to come true
But there's not a lot I can do

Hey
Papararam pano daram no no no
Papararam pano daram no no no
Hey aham
Hey aham
Hey aham
Hey aham
Hey aham
Hey aham
Hey aham
Hey aham
Na na na nana na na na

He Don't Know

Written by Don Covay, Jon Tiven and Sally Tiven
Performed by Huey Lewis and the News


He took your love
but it's still mine
He took all the things that I loved best
but you still ain't got happiness

Gave you everything girl money can buy
He's a real big spender and a generous guy
You gave up on me, can't understand
Deep down inside girl, I'm still the man

[Chorus]
(He don't know what to do for you) He don't know
(He don't know what to do for you) He don't know
(He don't know what to do for you) But I do
you know I do....yeah

I passed your house today
I took it real hard
There was a brand new Mercedes
Parked right in front of your yard
He buys you things from A to Z
but no one, no one can satisfy you like me

(He don't know what to do for you) He don't know
(He don't know what to do for you) He don't know like I know
(He don't know what to do for you) But I do
you know I do

You had the world
but you wanted more
but nothin' can be better than what you had before
But you still got a chance to let him go

Gave you all of the best love
one man can give (check it out)
Girl, you're gonna feel it
just as long as I live
Gave you all the love he could
but don't you know that
I spoiled you too good

(He don't know what to do for you) He don't know
(He don't know what to do for you) He will never know
(He don't know what to do for you) and I do
you know I do
(He don't know what to do for you) He don't know what to do
(He don't know what to do for you) for a girl like you
(He don't know what to do for you) he will never know
never never know like I know..

Goodbye Earl

Written by Dennis Linde
Performed by The Chicks


Mary-Ann and Wanda were the best of friends
All through their high school days
Both members of the 4H Club
Both active in the F.F.A.

After graduation Mary-Ann went out
Lookin' for a brand new world
Wanda looked all around this town
And all she found was Earl

Well, it wasn't two weeks after she got married
That Wanda started getting’ abused
She put on dark glasses, long sleeve blouses
And make-up to cover a bruise

Well, she finally got the nerve to file for divorce
She let the law take it from there
But Earl walked right through that restraining order
And put her in intensive care

Right away Mary-Ann flew in from Atlanta
On a red eye midnight flight
She held Wanda?s hand as they worked out a plan
And it didn't take ?em long to decide

That Earl had to die
Goodbye, Earl, those black eyed peas
They tasted alright to me Earl, you’re feelin’ weak
Why don’t you lay down and sleep, Earl
Ain’t it dark, wrapped up in that tarp, Earl

The cops came by to bring Earl in
They searched the house high and low
Then they tipped their hats and said, "Thank you, ladies
If you hear from him let us know?

Well, the weeks went by and
Spring turned to summer and summer faded into fall
And it turns out he was a missing person
Who nobody missed at all

So the girls bought some land and a roadside stand
Out on Highway 109
They sell Tennessee ham and strawberry jam
And they don't lose any sleep at night

Cause Earl had to die
Goodbye, Earl, we need a break
Lets go out to the lake, Earl, we’ll pack a lunch
And stuff you in the trunk Earl, well, is that alright?
Good, let’s go for a ride, Earl, hey

Well, hey, hey, hey
Oh, hey, hey, hey
Well, hey, hey, hey

Save Me

Written by Brian May
Performed by Queen

It started off so well
They said we made a perfect pair
I clothed myself in your glory and your love
How I loved you
How I cried
The years of care and loyalty
Were nothing but a sham it seems
The years belie we lived a lie
I love you till I die
Save me save me save me
I can't face this life alone
Save me save me save me
I'm naked and I'm far from home

The slate will soon be clean
I'll erase the memories
To start again with somebody new
Was it all wasted
All that love?
I hang my head and I advertise
A soul for sale or rent
I have no heart I'm cold inside
I have no real intent
Save me save me save me
I can't face this life alone
Save me save me save me
Oh I'm naked and I'm far from home

Each night I cry I still believe the lie
I love you 'till I die
Save me save me save me
Save me save me oh save me
Don't let me face my life alone
Save me save me oh
I'm naked and I'm far from home

Witchcraft

Written by Pearl King and Dave Bartholomew
Performed by Frank Sinatra

Those fingers in my hair
That sly come hither stare
That strips my conscience bare
It's Witchcraft

And I've got no defense for it
The heat is too intense for it
What good would common sense for it do?

'Cause it's Witchcraft
Wicked Witchcraft
And although I know it's strictly taboo
When you arouse the need in me
My heart says yes indeed in me
Proceed with what you're leading me to

It's such an ancient pitch
But one I wouldn't switch
'Cause there's no nicer witch than you

'Cause it's Witchcraft
That crazy Witchcraft
And although I know it's strictly taboo
When you arouse the need in me
My heart says yes indeed in me
Proceed with what your leading me to

It's such an ancient pitch
But one that I would never switch
'Cause there's no nicer witch than you

Does He Love You

Written by Sandra Knox and William Streich
Performed by Reba McEntire

I've known about you for a while now
When he leaves me, he wears a smile now
As soon as he's away from me
In your arms is where he wants to be

But you're the one he rushes home to
You're the one he gave his name to
I never see his face in the early morning light
You have his mornings, his daytime
And sometimes, I have his nights

But does he love you (Does he love you)
Like he loves me? (Like he loves me?)
Does he think of you (Does he think of you)
When he's holding me?
And does he whisper (Does he whisper)
All his fantasies?
Does he love you (Does he love you)
Like he's been lovin' me?

But when he's with me
He says he needs me
And that he wants me
That he believes in me

And when I'm in his arms
Oh, he swears there's no one else
Is he deceiving me
Or am I deceiving myself? (Deceiving myself)

But does he love you (Does he love you)
Like he loves me? (Like he loves me?)
Does he think of you (Does he think of you)
When he's holding me?
And does he whisper (Does he whisper)
All his fantasies?
Does he love you (Does he love you)
Like he's been lovin' me?

I should not lose my temper
(I should not be ashamed)
'Cause I have everything to lose
(And I, I have nothing to gain)

But does he love you (Does he love you)
Like he loves me? (Like he loves me?)
Does he think of you (Does he think of you)
When he's holding me?
And does he whisper (Does he whisper)
All his fantasies
Does he love you (Does he love you)
Like he's been lovin' me?
Oh, does he love you?

Total Eclipse of the Heart

Written by James Richard Steinman
Performed by Bonnie Tyler

Every now and then I get a little bit lonely
And you're never coming 'round
(Turn around) every now and then I get a little bit tired
Of listening to the sound of my tears
(Turn around) every now and then I get a little bit nervous
That the best of all the years have gone by
(Turn around) every now and then I get a little bit terrified
And then I see the look in your eyes
(Turn around, bright eyes) every now and then I fall apart
(Turn around, bright eyes) every now and then I fall apart

And I need you now tonight
And I need you more than ever
And if you only hold me tight
We'll be holding on forever
And we'll only be making it right
'Cause we'll never be wrong
Together we can take it to the end of the line
Your love is like a shadow on me all of the time (all of the time)
I don't know what to do and I'm always in the dark
We're living in a powder keg and giving off sparks
I really need you tonight
Forever's gonna start tonight
Forever's gonna start tonight

Once upon a time I was falling in love
But now I'm only falling apart
There's nothing I can do
A total eclipse of the heart
Once upon a time there was light in my life
But now there's only love in the dark
Nothing I can say
A total eclipse of the heart

every now and then I fall apart
(Turn around, bright eyes) every now and then I fall apart

And I need you now tonight (and I need you now)
And I need you more than ever
And if you only hold me tight (if you only)
We'll be holding on forever
And we'll only be making it right (and we'll never)
'Cause we'll never be wrong
Together we can take it to the end of the line
Your love is like a shadow on me all of the time (all of the time)
I don't know what to do, I'm always in the dark
We're living in a powder keg and giving off sparks
I really need you tonight
Forever's gonna start tonight
Forever's gonna start tonight

Once upon a time I was falling in love
But now I'm only falling apart
Nothing I can say
A total eclipse of the heart
A total eclipse of the heart
A total eclipse of the heart
Turn around, bright eyes

You're No Good

Written by Clint Ballard
Performed by Linda Ronstadt

Feelin' better now that we're through
Feelin' better, 'cause I'm over you
I learned my lesson, it left a scar
Now I see how you really are

You're no good
You're no good
You're no good
Baby, you're no good
I'm gonna say it again
You're no good
You're no good
You're no good
Baby, you're no good

I broke a heart that's gentle and true
Well, I broke a heart over someone like you
I'll beg his forgiveness on bended knee
I wouldn't blame him if he said to me

You're no good
You're no good
You're no good
Baby, you're no good
I'm gonna say it again
You're no good
You're no good
You're no good
Baby, you're no good

I'm tellin' you now, baby
And I'm going my way
Forget about you, baby
'Cause I'm leavin' to stay

You're no good
You're no good
You're no good
Baby, you're no good
I'm gonna say it again
You're no good
You're no good
You're no good
Baby, you're no good

Oh, oh, no
You're no good
You're no good
You're no good
Baby, you're no good

You're no good
You're no good
You're no good
You're no good
You're no good
You're no good, oh

You're no good
You're no good
You're no good
You're no good
You're no good, oh

You're no good
You're no good
You're no good
You're no good
You're no good
You're no good, whoa

You're no good
You're no good
Maybe you're good
