Summertime Blues

I'm a gonna raise a fuss
I'm a-gonna raise a holler
About a-workin' all summer
just a-trying to earn a dollar
Every time I call my baby,
try to get a date
The boss says
"No dice son you gotta work a-late"

Sometimes I wonder what I'm a gonna do
But there ain't no cure for the Summertime Blues

Well my Mom and Pappa told me "Son you gotta earn some money
If you wanna use the car to go a riding next Sunday"

Well I didn't got to work told the boss I was sick
"Now you can't use the car cause you didn't work a lick"

Sometimes I wonder what I'm a gonna do
But there ain't no cure for the Summertime Blues

It's gonna take two weeks for to have my vacation,
I'm gonna take my problem to the United Nations.

Well I told my congress man and he said, quote:
"I'd like to help you son but you're too young to vote"

Sometimes I wonder what I'm a gonna do,
But there ain't no cure for the Summertime Blues.

Magic Carpet Ride

I like to dream,
Yes, yes right between the sound machine
On a cloud of sight I drift in the night
Any place it goes is right
Goes far, flies near, to the stars a-way from here

Well you don't know what we could find
Why don't you come with me little girl on a magic carpet ride
Well you don't know what we could see
Why don't you tell your dreams to me
Fantasy will set you free

Close your eyes girl
Look inside girl
Let the sound take you away

Last night I held Aladdin's lamp
So I wished that I could stay
Before the thing could answer me
Well someone took, took the lamp away
I looked around a lousy can was all I found

Sunshine Of Your Love

It's gettin' near dawn
When lights close their tired eyes
I'll soon be with you my love
To give you my dawn surprise
I'll be with you darling soon
I'll be with you when the stars start falling
I've been waiting so long
To be where I'm going
In the sunshine of your love
I'm with you my love
The light's shinin' through on you
Yes, I'm with you my love
It's the morning and just we two
I'll stay with you darling now
I'll stay with you till my seeds are all dried up
I've been waiting so long
To be where I'm going
In the sunshine of your love
I'm with you my love
The light's shinin' through on you
Yes, I'm with you my love
It's the morning and just we two
I'll stay with you darling now
I'll stay with you till my seeds are all dried up
I've been waiting so long
To be where I'm going

Piece Of My Heart
(Janis Joplin)

Oh, come on, come on, come on, come on

Didn't I make you feel, like you were the only one?
Yeah, and didn't I give you nearly everything
That this man possibly can?
Each time I tell my self

That I think I've had enough
Oh, but I'm gonna show you baby
That this man can be tough
Come on, come on, come on

And take it
Take another little piece of my heart, now baby
Take it
Take another little piece of my heart, now baby
Take it
Take another little piece of my heart, now baby
Well you know you got it, 'cause it makes you feel good
Your out on the streets lookin' good

And baby, deep down in your heart
You know that it ain't right
Hear me when I cry, Out at night
Baby I cry all the time
Each time I tell myself

That I can't stand the pain
You hold me in your arms
And I'm singin' once again
CHORUS

I Want You To Want Me
(R. Nielsen)

I want you to want me
I need you to need me
I'd love you to love me
I'm beggin' you to beg me

I want you to want me
I need you to need me
I'd love you to love me
I'll shine up the old brown shoes
Put on a brand-new shirt
I'll get home early from work
If you say that you love me

Didn't I, didn't I, didn't I see you cryin'?
Oh, didn't I, didn't I, didn't I see you cryin'?
Feelin' all alone without a friend
You know you feel like dyin'
Oh, didn't I, didn't I, didn't I see you cryin'?

CHORUS

Didn't I, didn't I, didn't I see you cryin'?
Oh, didn't I, didn't I, didn't I see you cryin'?
Feelin' all alone without a friend, you know you feel like dyin'
Oh, didn't I, didn't I, didn't I see you cryin'?
Feelin' all alone without a friend, you know you feel like dyin'
Oh, didn't I, didn't I, didn't I see you cryin'?

CHORUS

Cried

Oh, yeah
You promised not to say a word
You promised you would keep it quiet
But you and I both knew it
It was written all over your face

So I cried, oh yeah, the day you said goodbye, oh yeah
So I cried, the day that I'bout died, the day you said goodbye

We had a love I thought could last
I guess I was thinking four-leaf clovers
But you wish we were over
Now I've lost three and I've only got one

So I cried, oh yeah, the day you said goodbye, oh yeah
So I cried,you cried, I cried, the day you said goodbye

Let's not even bother with talkin' about it
It doesn't really matter to you
So get on home, baby
Get on home, baby

A secret something that you keep
And a heart is something to hold on to
But you play by your own rules
And one day it went up in your face

So you'll cry, oh yeah, the day he says goodbye, the day that your love dies
You'll cry, oh, the day he says goodbye, goodbye
So you'll cry the day that your love dies, the day he says goodbye
So you'll cry the day that your love dies, the day he says goodbye

Lonely Again
(I. Hanson/T. Hanson/Z. Hanson)

You're supposed to give more than you take,
You had my heart on your plate,
You stopped loving me so fast.
There are stories left untold,
But you act like they're all old,
But then you and I we belong together again and I said...

[Chorus]
Whoaooh sha nah nah,
Whoaooh sha nah nah,
Whoaooh,
I think I'm feeling lonely again.
Whoaooh sha nah nah,
Whoaooh sha nah nah,
Whoaooh,
I think I'm feeling lonely.

You're supposed to look into my eyes,
Forever and all time,
You stopped loving me that way.
And I never thought that I,
I would ever have to cry out,
That you and I, we belong, together again and I said...

[Chorus]

I feel you tossing and turning,
I know there are walls we have to climb.
I sit here waiting and yearning,
Cause I know we can get by...

You're supposed to look into my eyes,
Forever and all time,
You started loving me that way,
And now I know that I,
I will ever have to cry out,
That you and, I we belong, together again...

Whoaooh sha nah nah,
Whoaooh sha nah nah,
Whoaooh,
I think I'm feeling lonely again.

Whoaooh sha nah nah,
Whoaooh sha nah nah,
Whoaooh,
I think I'm feeling lonely.

Whoaooh sha nah nah,
Whoaooh sha nah nah,
Whoaooh,
I think I'm feeling lonely.

Whoaooh sha nah nah,
Whoaooh sha nah nah,
Whoaooh,
I think I'm feeling lonely...

Smile
(I. Hanson/T. Hanson/Z. Hanson)

Well this feeling that you're feeling,
Is something I know you've felt before
When I see you, I want to hold you
Till the end of time, and a little bit more, and I...
And I wont let go You've got to let your feelings show

[Chorus]
So smile, give me all your heart and we'll never be apart.
I'll never leave you lonely
If you'll just smile, tell me that you care
And I'll always be there.
I'll never leave you hurting if you just smile.

Well this feeling I've been feeling
Well I can feel it right now from my head to the floor
When I see you I want to love you
Till the end of time and a little bit more, and I...
And I'm not gonna let it go
You've got to let your feelings show

[Chorus]

I got my joy all broken into,
But if anyone can heal me baby it's you.
Won't you come and hold my hand,
This world has taken me as far as it can without your...
Smile, give me all your heart and we'll never be apart,
I'll never leave you lonely
If you'll just smile, tell me that you care,
And I'll always be there.
I'll never leave you hurting if you just smile,
If you'll just smile, if you'll just smile
[Chorus]

Bridges Of Stone
(I. Hanson/T. Hanson/Z. Hanson)

Whoa, whoa, ohhhhh, whoa, oh
You can only push someone so far
You can only break so many hearts
We used to be love one another
Now it's lust for your lover
Baby, I was trying to burn bridges of stone
Yeahhh

You can only wait
You can only wait so long
You can only wait
You can only wait so long
In this game we play, can't tell right from wrong
You can only wait so long

Here come the memories of yesterday
Here's the poetry, of all those things I couldn't even say
You can only wait so long
Before your flower petals are all gone
Baby, I was trying to burn bridges of stone
Ain't nobody crying for what used to be home
Yeahhh

You can only wait
You can only wait so long
You can only wait
You can only wait so long
In this game we play, can't tell right from wrong
You can only wait so long

Ohhh
Why couldn't you hold on to me?
I was right here, layin' in our bed
Said, ohh
Walked in on the pain I didn't see
All those things I never should of said

You can only push someone so far
You can only break so many hearts
You can only wait so long
Before your flower petals are all gone
Baby, I was trying to burn bridges of stone.
You can only wait
You can only wait so long
You can only wait
You can only wait so long
In this game we play, can't tell right from wrong
You can only wait so long

Whoa, Whoa
Why couldn't you call out for me?
It's not like I was ever far away
Said, ohhh
Tie me to the edge and start to leave
There's nothing left here
But a million words to say
We all have memories
And I have spent my time in vain
Here's to our enemies
And I will leave you with no pain
We will find a way somehow
In this running just to know goodbye
Baby, I was trying to burn bridges of stone
You won't find me crying for what used to be home
You can only wait
You can only wait so long
You can only wait
You can only wait so long
In this game we play, can't tell right from wrong
You can only wait so long

You can only wait
You can only wait so long
You can only wait
You can only wait so long
In this game we play, can't tell right from wrong
You can only wait so long

In this game we play
We can't tell right from wrong
Cause you can only wait so long
In this game we play
We can't tell right from wrong
Cause you can only wait so long

We All Know
(I. Hanson/T. Hanson/Z. Hanson)

You wanna hear about why you had to leave me now?
Don't tell me 'bout why you've been sleepin' 'round
Ohhhh
Don't tell me that now you feel bad
You got a heading from the news this morning

[Bridge]
And we all know, it ain't right
And we all think love is blind
And we all know that we won't be sleeping tonight
Now please don't ask me why, cause then I'll be forced to lie
And we all know that we won't be sleeping tonight
We won't be sleeping tonight yeah, yeah

[Chorus]
I can leave it, and I can give it
Well, I cannot go on, I don't know what to do
You can fake it, and try to make it
The more you justify, the more I see right through

Even better than a change in the weather now.
You'll find the law and find a way to weasel out
Ohhh
Just talked to you; you told me to turn on the news this morning

[Bridge]
And we all know, it ain't right
And we all think love is blind
And we all know that we won't be sleeping tonight
Now please don't ask me why, cause then I'll be forced to lie
And we all know that we won't be sleeping tonight
We won't be sleeping tonight yeah, yeah

[Chorus]
I can leave it, and I can give it
Well, I cannot go on, I don't know what to do
You can fake it, and try to make it
The more you justify, the more I see right through

Just talked to you, you told me to turn on the news this morning

[Bridge]
And we all know, it ain't right
And we all think love is blind
And we all know that we won't be sleeping tonight
Now please don't ask me why, cause then I'll be forced to lie
And we all know that we won't be sleeping tonight
We won't be sleeping tonight yeah, yeah

Yeah, and we all know it ain't right
But we all think love is blind
And we all know that we won't be sleeping tonight

Can you really look me in the eye with a love that's hope to die.
And we all know that we won't be sleeping tonight

And we all know it ain't right
But we all think love is blind
We all know that we won't be sleeping tonight
We won't be sleeping tonight, yeah

I Don't Know
(I. Hanson/T. Hanson/Z. Hanson)

Well, I can't take this any longer, no

I can't take this any more
Well, I'm not getting any stronger
I don't know how to feel this any more
You can tell me what you want

After all that you've done for me
We can make it all undone
But can't you see that
I don't know what to think

And you can't tell if I'm dreaming
I wish that I could just let this go
But I'm thinking
If I don't know what I'm feeling
We just need (???)
I wish that I could just let this go
What I'm thinking
And I don't know
I had to search a thousand times before

I'm up against a wall I can't ignore
I wish you didn't feel so good to hold
'Cause then it wouldn't be so hard to know
You can tell me what you want

After all that you've done for me
We can make it all undone
But can't you see that
CHORUS

I wish I could tell you
That everything is gonna be all right
I just want to love you
So maybe I can let this go

You can tell me what you want
After all that you mean to me
We can make it all undone
But can't you see that
CHORUS

I don't know...

Never Let Go
(I. Hanson/T. Hanson/Z. Hanson)

Just lay down
And let your worries sleep
Don't think now
The waters dark and deep

Cause you know
That I love you and never let go
And you know That I love you forever
I love you and never let go
Yes I love you and never let go

Just cry out
Yeah I've cried those tears before
I can feel it now
As your tear drops in the falls

Cause you know
That I love you and never let go
And you know
That I love you forever
I love you and never let go
Yes I love you and never let go

Woah...

You don�t have to ask me do i love you
As I hold you it shows
Just how much i do
I�m yours until forever is through
Every time I stand for you
I know I lay my life down for you
