https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A84NCahLksQ
We were sailing along on Moonlight Bay
We could hear the voices ringing
They seemed to say
"You have stolen her heart"
"Now don't go 'way"
As we sang love's old sweet song on Moonlight Bay.
3) Sidewalks of NY
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jEpvOHntSus
East side, West side
All around the town
The tots sang 'Ring-a-Rosie
London Bridge is falling down!'
Boys and girls together
Me and Mamie O'Rourke
Tripped the light fantastic
On the sidewalks of New York
4) In The Good Old Summertime
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JWSiMhEkFVk
In the good old summertime, in the good old summertime;
Strolling through the shady lane with your baby mine.
You hold her hand and she holds yours and that's a very good sign;
That she's your tootsie wootsie in the good old summertime.
5) On A Bicycle Built For Two
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2eTOqfXy5UI
Daisy, Daisy
Give me your answer do!
I'm half crazy

I can't afford a carriage.
But you'll look sweet
Upon the seat
Of a bicycle built for two.
6) By The Light Of The Silvery Moon
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=td7lCCO9aaQ

Your silvery beams will bring love's dreams
We'll be cuddlin' soon
By the silvery moon.
7) Mary’s A Grand Old Name
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hKEePX3EblI
For it is Mary, Mary
Plain as any name can be.
But with propriety, society will say Marie.
But it was Mary, Mary
Long before the fashions came
And there is something there that sounds so square
It's a grand old name!
8) If You Knew Susie (Like I Know Susie)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mMVv_oawqCM
If You Knew Susie, like I know Susie
Oh! Oh! Oh! What a girl!
There's none so classy as this fair lassie
Oh! Oh! Oh, my goodness, what a chassis!
I had a moustache as cute as a pup.
Susie kissed me and she burned the darn thing up.
If You Knew Susie, like I know Susie
Oh! Oh! Oh! What a girl!
9) Down By The Old Mill Stream
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_e7jnBEvEkc
Down by the Old Mill Stream,

With your eyes of blue,
Dressed in gingham too,
It was there I knew,
That you loved me true.
You were sixteen, my village queen,
Down by the old mill stream!
10) Heart of My Heart
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=emxPY02CGFs
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.
11) Shine On Harvest Moon
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ANVupiq2v0Q

Snowtime ain't no time to stay outdoors and spoon
So shine on, shine on harvest moon - for me and my gal!
12) For Me And My Gal
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QjttR-mlT8s

Bye, bye, blackbird.
Where somebody waits for me,
Sugar’s weet, so is she,
Bye, bye, blackbird.
No one here can love and understand me,
Oh, what hard luck stories they all hand me.
Make my bed and light the light,
I'll arrive late tonight,
Blackbird, bye, bye.
14) Five Foot Two, Eyes Of Blue
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5UWOiDJNAuA
Five foot two, eyes of blue
But oh what those five foot could do
Has anybody seen my gal?
Turned up nose and turned down hose
Never had another beau
Has anybody seen my gal?
Now if you run into five foot two covered with fur
Diamond rings and all those things
Bet your life it isn't her.
Could she love and could she woo
Could she could she could she coo
Has anybody seen my gal?
15) And the Band Played On
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XloBEmWuukM
Casey would waltz with a strawberry blonde,
And the band played on.
He'd glide cross the floor with the girl he adored,
And the band played on.
But his brain was so loaded it nearly exploded,
The poor girl would shake with alarm.
He'd ne'er leave the girl with the strawberry curls,
And the band played on.
16) My Wild Irish Rose
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QpU_X6VKqvA
My wild Irish Rose,
The sweetest flow'r that grows,
You may search ev'rywhere,
But none can compare
With my wild Irish Rose.
My wild Irish Rose,
The dearest flow'r that grows,
And some day for my sake,
She may let me take
The bloom from my wild Irish Rose.
17) Yes Sir, That’s My Baby
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HrsLTmFG0EU
Yes sir, that’s my baby, No sir, I don't mean maybe
Yes sir, that's my baby now.
Yes, ma'm, we've decided,
No ma'm, we ain't gonna hide it
Yes, ma'm, you're invited now
By the way, by the way
When we walk up to the preacher I'll say,
“Yes sir, that's my baby, No sir, I don't mean maybe
Yes sir, that's my baby now.”
18) Chatanooga Choo Choo
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CPp0XtjkWw8
Pardon me boy, is that the Chattanooga Choo Choo?
Track 29! Boy you can give me a shine.
Can you afford, to board,the Chattanooga Choo Choo?
I've got my fare, And just a trifle to spare.
You leave the Pennsylvania station 'bout a quarter to 4
Read a magazine and then you're in Baltimore
Dinner in the diner, nothing could be finer
Than to have your ham and eggs in Carolina!
When you hear the whistle blowing eight to the bar
Then you know that Tennessee is not very far
Shovel all the coal in, Gotta keep it rollin'
Choo Choo Chatanooga, there you are!
There's gonna be a certain party at the station
Satin and Lace I used to call funny face
She's gonna cry Until I tell her that I'll never roam
(So Chattanooga Choo Choo)
Won't you choo choo me home?
19) Put Your Arms Around Me
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o_CoQVf6VYA
Put your arms around me, Honey, hold me tight
Huddle up and cuddle up with all your might
Oh! Oh! Won't you roll those eyes?
Eyes that I just idolize
When they look at me, my heart begins to float
Then it starts a rockin' like a motor boat
Oh! Oh! I never knew any girl like you.
20) Won’t You Come Home, Bill Bailey?

She moans the whole day long.
I'll do the cookin', darling
I'll pay the rent,
I know I've done you wrong;
'member that rainy evening
I threw you out,
With nothing but a fine-tooth comb?
I know I'm to blame,
Well, ain't that a shame
Bill Bailey won't you please come home.
21) You Are My Sunshine
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=At4Kccy9Zog
You are my sunshine, My only sunshine
You make me happy when skies are gray
You'll never know, dear, how much I love you
Please don't take My sunshine away.
The other night, dear, As I lay sleeping
I dreamed I held you in my arms
When I awoke, dear, I was mistaken
So I hung my head and I cried.
22) Meet Me In St. Louis

If you will meet in St. Louis, Louis,
Meet me at the fair.

Then you'll be left alone, oh baby
Telephone, and tell me, tell me
Tell me I'm your very own!
24 ) School Days
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wJb2oEdBQaE
School days, school days, dear old golden rule days,
Readin' and 'ritin' and 'rithmetic,
Taught to the tune of a hick'ry stick,
You were my queen in calico,
I was your bashful barefoot beau,
And you wrote on my slate, I love you so,
When we were a couple of kids.
25 ) Alexander’s Ragtime Band
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wEOMK-P3hMI
Oh my honey, oh my honey

Ain't you goin', ain't you goin'
To the leader man
The ragged meter man
Oh my honey, oh my honey
Let me take you to Alexander's grandstand, brass band
Ain't you comin' along?
Come on and hear, come on and hear
Alexander's ragtime band
Come on and hear, come on and hear

They can play a bugle call like you never heard before
So natural that you want to go to war
That's just the bestest band what am, honey lamb!
Come on along, come on along
Let me take you by the hand
Up to the man, up to the man
Who's the leader of the band
And if you want to hear the Swanee River played in ragtime
Come on and hear, come on and hear
Alexander's ragtime band!
26 ) Over There
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=921z4LAHvak
Over there, over there
Send the word, send the word over there.
That the Yanks are coming
The Yanks are coming
The drums rum tumming everywhere
So prepare, say a prayer
Send the word, send the word to beware
We'll be over, we're coming over
And we won't come back till it's over, over there.
27 ) I’m Looking Over A Four Leaf Clover
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w1n5tShQpGM
I'm Looking Over a Four Leaf Clover

That I over looked before.
28) Show Me The Way To Go Home
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=btMclrrDaFg
Show me the way to go home
I'm tired and I want to go to bed
I had a little drink about an hour ago
And it's gone right to my head
Everywhere I roam
Over land or sea or foam
You can always hear me singing this song
Said show me the way to go home.

Good night, sweet lake,
Tomorrow is another day
Good night, sweet lake, goodnight.
31) When Irish Eyes Are Smiling
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V74E31Tb2Oo
There's a tear in your eye
And I'm wondering why
For it never should be there at all
With such pow'r in your smile
Sure a stone you'd beguile
So there's never a teardrop should fall.
When Irish eyes are smiling
Sure, 'tis like the morn in Spring
In the lilt of Irish laughter
You can hear the angels sing
When Irish hearts are happy
All the world seems bright and gay
And when Irish eyes are smiling
Sure, they steal your heart away
32) Galway Bay
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q_-y8Bpy3KE
If you ever go across the sea to Ireland
Then maybe at the closing of your day
You will sit and watch the moonrise over Claddagh
And watch the barefoot gossoons at their play
Just to hear again the ripple of the trout stream
The women in the meadows making hay
And to sit beside a turf fire in the cabin
And see the sun go down on Galway Bay.
For the breezes blowing o'er the seas from Ireland
Are perfumed by the heather as they blow
And the women in the uplands diggin' praties
Speak a language that the strangers do not know
For the strangers came and tried to teach us their way
They scorned us just for being what we are
But they might as well go chasing after moonbeams
Or light a penny candle from a star
And if there is going to be a life hereafter
And somehow I am sure there's going to be
I will ask my God to let me make my heaven
In that dear land across the Irish sea.
33) Harrigan
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XpQt4VlqOus
H - A - double are - I - G - A - N spells Harrigan
Proud of all the Irish blood that's in me;
Divil a man can say a word agin me.
H - A - double are - I - G - A - N, you see,
Is a name that a shame never has been connected with, Harrigan, That's me!
34) Goodnight, Irene
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xn50JSI0W-E
Irene goodnight, Irene goodnight
Goodnight Irene, Goodnight Irene
I'll see you in my dreams.
35) K-K-K-Katy
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4EMhfPAUcBc
K-K-K-Katy, beautiful Katy,
You're the only g-g-g-girl that I adore;
When the m-m-m-moon shines,
Over the cow shed,
I'll be waiting at the k-k-k-kitchen door.
36) In Heaven There Is No Beer
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BEY0R5jQv8M
In Heaven there is no beer,
That’s why we drink it here.
And when we’re gone from here,
Our friends will be drinking all the beer.
37) MacNamara’s Band
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q-REbjN8P38
Oh, me name is MacNamara, I'm the leader of the band
Although we're few in numbers, we're the finest in the land!
We play at wakes and weddings and at every fancy ball
And when we play the funerals, we play the best of all.
Oh, the drums go bang and the cymbals clang and the horns they blaze away;
McCarthy pumps the old bassoon while I the pipes do play
And Henessee Tennessee tootles the flute and the music is something grand
A credit to old Ireland is MacNamara's band.
38) Molly Malone
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ruNdU6bGE5E
In Dublin's fair city, Where the girls are so pretty
I first set my eyes on sweet Molly Malone
As she wheeled her wheelbarrow
Through streets broad and narrow
Crying, "Cockles and mussels, alive, alive, oh!"
Alive, alive, oh
Alive, alive, oh
Crying, Cockles and mussels, alive, alive, oh.
She was a fishmonger, And sure 'twas no wonder
For so were her father and mother before
And they both wheeled their barrows
Through streets broad and narrow
Crying, Cockles and mussels, alive, alive, oh.
Alive, alive, oh
Alive, alive, oh
Crying, Cockles and mussels, alive, alive, oh
She died of a fever, and no one could save her
And that was the end of sweet Molly Malone.
Now her ghost wheels the wheelbarrow
Through streets broad and narrow
Crying, Cockles and mussels, alive, alive, oh.
Alive, alive, oh
Alive, alive, oh
Crying, Cockles and mussels, alive, alive, oh
39) It’s a long way to Tipperary
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MUgMKi5x06c
It's a long way to Tipperary
It's a long way to go.
It's a long way to Tipperary
To the sweetest girl I know!
Goodbye, Piccadilly
Farewell, Leicester Square!
It's a long, long way to Tipperary
But my heart's right there.
40) The Wearin’ of the Green
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i8n8JWAezaM
Oh, Paddy dear and did you hear the news that's goin' round?
The shamrock is by law forbid to grow on Irish ground
Saint Patrick's Day no more we'll keep his colours can't be seen
For they're hangin' men and women for the wearin' of the green
I met with Napper Tandy and he took me by the hand
He said: "How's dear old Ireland and how does she stand?
She's the most distressful country that you have ever seen
For they're hangin' men and women for the wearin' of the green"
For the wearin' of the green
For the wearin' of the green
They're hangin' men and women
For the wearin' of the green
41) The Rising of the Moon
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NhFtxGpvn-E
"O come tell me Sean O'Farrell,
tell me why you hurry so?"
"Hush ma bouchal, hush and listen"
And his cheeks were all aglow
"I bear orders from the Capt'n
Get you ready quick and soon
For the pikes must be together
By the rising of the moon"
"O come tell me Sean O'Farrell
Where the gath'rin is to be?
At the old spot by the river,
Well known to you and me.
One more word for signal token,
Whistle up the marchin' tune,
With your pike upon your shoulder,
By the rising of the moon.
By the rising of the moon,
By the rising of the moon
With your pike upon your shoulder,
By the rising of the moon.
Out from many a mud wall cabin
Eyes were watching through the night,
Many a manly heart was beating,
For the blessed morning light.
Murmurs rang along the valleys,
To the banshee's lonely croon
And a thousand pikes were flashing,
By the rising of the moon.
By the rising of the moon,
By the rising of the moon
And a thousand pikes were flashing,
By the rising of the moon.
All along that singing river
That black mass of men were seen,
High above their shining weapons,
flew their own beloved green.
"Death to every foe and traitor!
Whistle out the marching tune.
And hurrah my boy for freedom;
At the rising of the moon".
42) Pack Up Your Troubles In Your Old Kit Bag
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=em93SdPMc70
Pack up your troubles in your old kit bag,
And smile, smile, smile!
While you've a Lucifer to light your fag,
Smile, Boys, that’s the style.
What's the use of worrying?
It never was worth while.
So, pack up your troubles in your old kit bag,
And smile, smile, smile!
43) Danny Boy
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SfGTq71VXfo
O Danny boy, the pipes, the pipes are calling
From glen to glen and down the mountainside
The summer's gone and all the roses falling
'Tis you, 'tis you must go and I must bide.
But come ye back when summer's in the meadow
Or all the valley's hushed and white with snow
'Tis I'll be here in sunshine or in shadow
O Danny boy, O Danny boy, I love you so.
But when you come and all the flowers are dying
If I am dead, as dead I well may be
You'll come and find the place where I am lying
And kneel and say an "Ave" there for me.
But I shall hear though soft you tread above me
And all my grave shall warmer, sweeter be
And you will bend and tell me that you love me
And I shall sleep in peace until you come to me.
44) America The Beautiful
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MY3AH14R3mw
O beautiful for spacious skies,
For amber waves of grain,
For purple mountain majesties
Above the fruited plain!
America! America! God shed His grace on thee
And crown thy good with brotherhood
From sea to shining sea!
O beautiful for pilgrim feet,
Whose stern, impassioned stress
A thoroughfare for freedom beat,
Across the wilderness!
America! America! God mend thine every flaw,
Confirm thy soul in self-control, Thy liberty in law!
O beautiful for heroes proved
In liberating strife,
Who more than self their country loved
And mercy more than life!
America! America!
May God thy gold refine,
Till all success be nobleness,
And every gain divine!
O beautiful for patriot dream
That sees beyond the years
Thine alabaster cities gleam
Undimmed by human tears!
America! America!
God shed His grace on thee
And crown thy good with brotherhood
From sea to shining sea!
45) Battle Hymn of the Republic
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0VQDjB3_AsY
Mine eyes have seen the glory
Of the coming of the Lord;
He is trampling out the vintage
Where the grapes of wrath are stored;
He hath loosed the fateful lightning
Of His terrible swift sword;
His truth is marching on.
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah! Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah! His truth is marching on.
I have seen Him in the watchfires
Of a hundred circling camps
They have builded Him an altar
In the evening dews and damps;
I can read His righteous sentence
By the dim and flaring lamps;
His day is marching on.
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah! Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah! His truth is marching on.
In the beauty of the lilies
Christ was born across the sea,
With a glory in His bosom
That transfigures you and me;
As He died to make men holy,
Let us die to make men free;
While God is marching on.
He has sounded forth the trumpet
That shall never call retreat;
He is sifting out the hearts of men
Before His judgement seat;
Oh, be swift, my soul, to answer Him;
Be jubilant, my feet;
Our God is marching on.
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah! Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah! His truth is marching on.
46) America
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x68qktoGDgI
My country, 'tis of Thee, Sweet Land of Liberty
Of thee I sing;
Land where my fathers died, Land of the pilgrims' pride,
From every mountain side Let Freedom ring.
My native country, thee, Land of the noble free,
Thy name I love; I love thy rocks and rills,
Thy woods and templed hills,
My heart with rapture thrills
Like that above.
Let music swell the breeze, And ring from all the trees
Sweet Freedom's song;
Let mortal tongues awake;
Let all that breathe partake;
Let rocks their silence break,
The sound prolong.
47) This Land Is Your Land
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wxiMrvDbq3s
This land is your land, this land is my land
From California, to the New York Island
From the redwood forest, to the gulf stream waters
This land was made for you and me.
As I was walking a ribbon of highway
I saw above me an endless skyway
I saw below me a golden valley
This land was made for you and me.
I've roamed and rambled and I've followed my footsteps
To the sparkling sands of her diamond deserts
And all around me a voice was sounding
This land was made for you and me.

Goin’ to put on my long white robe,
Down by the riverside,
Down by the riverside,
Goin’ to put on my long white robe,

You're a grand old flag,

I've been working on the railroad,
All the live long day.
I've been working on the railroad,
Just to pass the time away.
Can't you hear the whistle blowing?
Rise up early in the morn.
Can't you hear the captain shouting?
"Dinah, blow your horn!"
Dinah, won't you blow, Dinah, won't you blow,
Dinah, won't you blow your horn? (x2)
Someone’s in the kitchen with Dinah, Oh, when the saints (when the saints)
Go marching in (marching in)
Now, when the saints go marching in (marching in)
Yes, I want to be in that number
When the saints go marching in
Someone’s in the kitchen, I know
Someone’s in the kitchen with Dinah,
Strummin’ on the old banjo.
Singing...fee, fie, fiddle-e-i-o,
Fee, fie, fiddle-e-i-o-o-o-o,
Fee, fie, fiddle-e-i-o,
Strumming on the old banjo!
Fee, fie, fiddle-e-i-o, Fee, fie, fiddle-e-i-o-o-o-o,
Fee, fie, fiddle-e-i-o. Strumming on the old banjo!

I’ve got an old mule and her name is Sal, Fifteen years on the Erie Canal.
She’s a good old worker and a good old pal, Fifteen years on the Erie Canal.
We’ve hauled some barges in our day, Filled with lumber, coal and hay,
And ev’ry inch of the way I know, From Albany to Buffalo.
Low bridge, ev’rybody down, Low bridge, We must be getting near a town.
You can always tell your neighbor, You can always tell your pal,
If he’s ever navigated on the Erie Canal.
55) Home on the Range
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wJJGikSD9ho
Oh, give me a home, where the buffalo roam
Where the dear and the antelope play
Where seldom is heard, a discouragin' word
And the skies are not cloudy all day
Home, home on the range
Where the dear and the antelope play
Where seldom is heard, a discouragin' word
And the skies are not cloudy all day.

Michael row the boat ashore, hallelujah

The river is deep and the river is wide, hallelujah
Milk and Honey on the other side, hallelujah
Michael row the boat ashore, hallelujah
Michael row the boat ashore, hallelujah
The Jordan river is chilly and cold, hallelujah
Chills the body but not the soul, hallelujah

Oh, when the saints (oh when the saints)
Go marching in (go marching in)
Now, when the saints go marching in
Lord, I want to be in that number
When the saints go marching in.
And when the sun begins to shine,
And when the sun begins to shine,
I want to be in that number,
When the Saints go marching in.

Oh we’ll kill the old red rooster when she comes...
And we’ll all have chicken & dumplings when she comes
She will get to sleep with Grandma when she comes…
60) Puff the Magic Dragon
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y7lmAc3LKWM
Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea
And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called Honah Lee.
Little Jackie Paper loved that rascal Puff
And brought him strings, and sealing wax, and other fancy stuff. …
Oh, Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea, And frolicked in the autumn mist, in a land called Honah Lee … Puff, the magic dragon, lived by the sea
And frolicked in the autumn mist, in a land called Honah Lee.
Together they would travel on a boat with billowed sail
Jackie kept a lookout perched on Puff's gigantic tail
Noble kings and princes would bow whenever they came; Pirate ships would lower their flags when Puff roared out his name.
Oh, Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea
And frolicked in the autumn mist, in a land called Honah Lee…Puff, the magic dragon, lived by the sea
And frolicked in the autumn mist, in a land called Honah Lee.
A dragon lives forever, but not so little boys
Painted wings and giant's rings make way for other toys
One gray night it happened, Jackie Paper came no more
And Puff, that mighty dragon, he ceased his fearless roar;
His head was bent in sorrow, green scales fell like rain, Puff no longer went to play along the cherry lane
Without his lifelong friend, Puff could not be brave
So Puff, that mighty dragon, sadly slipped into his cave
Oh, Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea
And frolicked in the autumn mist, in a land called Honah Lee; Puff, the magic dragon, lived by the sea
And frolicked in the autumn mist, in a land called Honah Lee.
61) Teach Your Children Well
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQOaUnSmJr8
… You, who are on the road
Must have a code that you can live by
And so, become yourself
Because the past is just a goodbye
… Teach your children well
Their father's hell did slowly go by
And feed them on your dreams
The one they pick's the one you'll know by
… Don't you ever ask them, "Why?"
If they told you, you would cry
So just look at them and sigh
And know they love you
… And you (of tender years
Can't know the fears
That your elders grew by
And so, please help
Them with your youth
They seek the truth
Before they can die
… And teach your parents well
Their children's hell will slowly go by
And feed them on your dreams
The one they pick's the one you'll know by
… Don't you ever ask them, "Why?
If they told you, you will cry
So just look at them and sigh
And know they love you.

64) Charlie on the MTA
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xsqBtZNBL60
Well, let me tell you of the story of a man named Charlie On a tragic and fateful day
He put ten cents in his pocket, kissed his wife and family
Went to ride on the MTA.
REFRAIN:
Well, did he ever return?
No he never returned and his fate is still unlearned
He may ride forever 'neath the streets of Boston
He's the man who never returned
Charlie handed in his dime at the Kendall Square station
And he changed for Jamaica Plain
When he got there the conductor told him, "one more nickel" Charlie couldn't get off of that train!
(REFRAIN)
Now, all night long Charlie rides through the station
Crying, "what will become of me?
How can I afford to see my sister in Chelsea
Or my cousin in Roxbury?"
(REFRAIN)
Charlie's wife goes down to the Scollay Square station
Every day at quarter past two
And through the open window she hands Charlie a sandwich
As the train comes rumbling through!
(REFRAIN)
Now, you citizens of Boston, don't you think it's a scandal How the people have to pay and pay?
Fight the fare increase, vote for George O'Brian
Get poor Charlie off the MTA!
(REFRAIN)
65) Aquarius/Let the Sun Shine
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=06X5HYynP5E
When the moon is in the Seventh House
And Jupiter aligns with Mars, Then peace will guide the planets, And love will steer the stars
This is the dawning of the age of Aquarius
Age of Aquarius, Aquarius, Aquarius
Harmony and understanding
Sympathy and trust abounding
No more falsehoods or derisions
Golden living dreams of visions
Mystic crystal revelation
And the mind's true liberation
Aquarius, Aquarius
Let the sunshine, Let the sunshine in, The sunshine in
Let the sunshine, Let the sunshine in, The sunshine in.
66) Country Roads
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EqcMbkFR6jk
Almost heaven, West Virginia
Blue ridge mountains, Shenandoah river
Life is old there, older than the trees
Younger than the mountains, growin' like a breeze
REFRAIN: Country roads, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain momma
Take me home, country roads.
All my memories, gather 'round her
Miner's lady, stranger to blue water
Dark and dusty, painted on the sky
Misty taste of moonshine, teardrop in my eye
(REFRAIN)
I hear her voice, in the mornin' hour she calls me
The radio reminds me of my home far away
Drivin' down the road I get a feelin'
That I should have been home yesterday, yesterday
(REFRAIN)
67) 59th Street Bridge Song (Feelin’ Groovy)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-xhJcQEfD5s
Slow down, you move too fast https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v0fy1HeJv80
You got to make the morning last
Just kicking down the cobblestones
Looking for fun and feeling groovy.
Ba da-da da-da da-da, feeling groovy.
Hello lamppost, what'cha knowing
I've come to watch your flowers growin'
Ain't you got no rhymes for me?
Doo-ait-n-doo-doo, feeling groovy.
Ba da-da da-da da-da, feeling groovy
I got no deeds to do, no promises to keep
I'm dappled and drowsy and ready to sleep
Let the morningtime drop all its petals on me.
Life, I love you, all is groovy.
68) I’m A Believer
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TiQUnxNEDqk
I thought love was only true in fairy tales
Meant for someone else but not for me
Love was out to get me, That's the way it seemed.
Disappointment haunted all of my dreams.
Then I saw her face, now I'm a believer
Not a trace of doubt in my mind
I'm in love; I'm a believer, I couldn't leave her if I tried.
I thought love was more or less a giving thing
Seems the more I gave the less I got
What's the use in tryin' All you get is pain?
When I needed sunshine, I got rain
Then I saw her face, now I'm a believer
Not a trace of doubt in my mind
I'm in love; I'm a believer, I couldn't leave her if I tried
Oh, Oh, love was out to get me
Now, that's the way it seemed
Disappointment haunted all of my dreams
Then I saw her face, now I'm a believer
Not a trace of doubt in my mind, I'm in love
I'm a believer, I couldn't leave her if I tried.
69) Yellow Submarine
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m2uTFF_3MaA
In the town where I was born
Lived a man who sailed to sea
And he told us of his life
In the land of submarines.
So we sailed on to the sun
'Til we found a sea of green
And we lived beneath the waves
In our yellow submarine
We all live in a yellow submarine
Yellow submarine, yellow submarine
We all live in a yellow submarine
Yellow submarine, yellow submarine
And our friends are all aboard
Many more of them live next door
And the band begins to play
We all live in a yellow submarine
Yellow submarine, yellow submarine
We all live in a yellow submarine
Yellow submarine, yellow submarine
As we live a life of ease (a life of ease)
Every one of us (every one of us)
Has all we need (has all we need)
Sky of blue (sky of blue)
And sea of green (sea of green)
In our yellow (in our yellow)
Submarine (submarine, aha)
We all live in a yellow submarine
A yellow submarine, yellow submarine
We all live in a yellow submarine
A yellow submarine, yellow submarine
We all live in a yellow submarine
A yellow submarine, yellow submarine
We all live in a yellow submarine
A yellow submarine, yellow submarine
70) American Pie
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PRpiBpDy7MQ
Long long time ago, I can still remember
How that music used to make me smile
And I knew if I had my chance
That I could make those people dance
And maybe they'd be happy for a while
But February made me shiver
With every paper I'd deliver
Bad news on the doorstep
I couldn't take one more step
I can't remember if I cried
When I read about his widowed bride
But something touched me deep inside
The day the music died.
REFRAIN: So bye-bye, Miss American Pie
Drove my Chevy to the levee
But the levee was dry
Them good old boys were drinking whiskey and rye
Singing, "This'll be the day that I die"
This will be the day that I die
Did you write the Book of Love?
And do you have faith in God above?
If the Bible tells you so
Do you believe in rock 'n' roll?
Can music save your mortal soul?
And can you teach me how to dance real slow?
Well I know that you're in love with him
'Cause I saw you dancing in the gym
You both kicked off your shoes
Then I dig those rhythm and blues
I was a lonely teenage broncin' buck
With a pink carnation and a pickup truck
But I knew I was out of luck
The day the music died
(REFRAIN)
Now for ten years we've been on our own
And moss grows fat on a rolling stone
But that's not how it used to be
When the jester sang for the King and Queen
In a coat he borrowed from James Dean
And a voice that came from you and me
Oh and while the King was looking down
The jester stole his thorny crown
The courtroom was adjourned
No verdict was returned
And while Lenin read a book of Marx
The Quartet practiced in the park
And we sang dirges in the dark
The day the music died
(REFRAIN)
Helter skelter in the summer swelter
The birds flew off with a fallout shelter
Eight miles high and falling fast
It landed foul on the grass, the players tried for a forward pass
With the jester on the sidelines in a cast
Now the halftime air was sweet perfume
While the sergeants played a marching tune
We all got up to dance
Oh, but we never got the chance
'Cause the players tried to take the field
The marching band refused to yield
Do you recall what was revealed
The day the music died?
(REFRAIN)
Oh, and there we were all in one place
A generation lost in space
With no time left to start again
So come on, Jack be nimble, Jack be quick
Jack Flash sat on a candlestick
'Cause fire is the devil's only friend
Oh, and as I watched him on the stage
My hands were clenched in fists of rage
No angel born in Hell
Could break that Satan's spell
And as the flames climbed high into the night
To light the sacrificial rite
I saw Satan laughing with delight
The day the music died.
(REFRAIN)
I met a girl who sang the blues
And I asked her for some happy news
But she just smiled and turned away
I went down to the sacred store
Where I'd heard the music years before
But the man there said the music wouldn't play
And in the streets, the children screamed
The lovers cried and the poets dreamed
But not a word was spoken
The church bells all were broken
And the three men I admire most
The Father, Son, and the Holy Ghost
They caught the last train for the coast
The day the music died.
(REFRAIN)
(REFRAIN)
71) Sweet Caroline
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UtBPGFYJeyU
Where it began, I can't begin to knowing
But then I know it's growing strong
Was in the spring
And spring became the summer
Who'd have believed you'd come along
Hands, touching hands
Reaching out, touching me, touching you.
Sweet Caroline (Wah Wah Wah)
Good times never seemed so good (so good, so good, so good!)
I've been inclined
To believe they never would
But now I
Look at the night and it don't seem so lonely
We filled it up with only two
And when I hurt
Hurting runs off my shoulders
How can I hurt when holding you
One, touching one
Reaching out, touching me, touching you
Sweet Caroline (Wah Wah Wah)
Good times never seemed so good (so good, so good, so good!)
I've been inclined
To believe they never would
Oh No No…
72) Times, They Are A-Changin’
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JxvVk-r9ut8
Come gather 'round people
Wherever you roam
And admit that the waters
Around you have grown
And accept it that soon
You'll be drenched to the bone
If your time to you is worth savin'
And you better start swimmin'
Or you'll sink like a stone
For the times they are a-changin'.
Come writers and critics
Who prophesize with your pen
And keep your eyes wide
The chance won't come again
And don't speak too soon
For the wheel's still in spin
And there's no tellin' who
That it's namin' For the loser now
Will be later to win, For the times they are a-changin'.
Come senators, congressmen
Please heed the call
Don't stand in the doorway
Don't block up the hall
For he that gets hurt
Will be he who has stalled
The battle outside ragin'
Will soon shake your windows
And rattle your walls
For the times they are a-changin'.
Come mothers and fathers
Throughout the land
And don't criticize
What you can't understand
Your sons and your daughters
Are beyond your command
Your old road is rapidly agin'
Please get out of the new one
If you can't lend your hand
For the times they are a-changin'.
The line it is drawn, The curse it is cast
The slow one now Will later be fast
As the present now Will later be past
The order is rapidly fadin' And the first one now
Will later be last
For the times they are a-changin'.
73) Raindrops Keep Falling On My Head
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_VyA2f6hGW4
Raindrops are falling on my head
And just like the guy whose feet are too big for his bed
Nothing seems to fit
Those raindrops are falling on my head, they keep falling
So I just did me some talking to the sun
And I said I didn't like the way he got things done
Sleeping on the job
Those raindrops are falling on my head, they keep falling
But there's one thing I know
The blues they send to meet me
Won't defeat me, it won't be long
Till happiness steps up to greet me
Raindrops keep falling on my head
But that doesn't mean my eyes will soon be turning red
Crying's not for me
'Cause I'm never gonna stop the rain by complaining
Because I'm free, Nothing's worrying me.
74) What A Wonderful World
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p-T6aaRV9HY
I see trees of green, Red roses too
I see them bloom For me and you
And I think to myself, What a wonderful world.
I see skies of blue, And clouds of white
The bright blessed day, The dark sacred night
And I think to myself, What a wonderful world.
The colors of the rainbow, So pretty in the sky
Are also on the faces, Of people going by
I see friends shaking hands Saying how do you do
They're really saying, I love youd!
I hear babies cry, I watch them grow
They'll learn much more, Than I'll ever know
And I think to myself What a wonderful world
Yes, I think to myself, What a wonderful world
Ooh, yeah.

That you bought today

… Come to me now, And rest your head for just five minutes
Everything is done. Such a cozy 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

Winter, spring, summer or fall All you have to do is call
