Here There And Everywhere
Here There And Everywhere
To lead a better life I need my love to be here…
Here, making each day of the year
Changing my life with a wave of her hand
Nobody can deny that there’s something thereThere, running my hands through her hair
Both of us thinking how good it can be
Someone is speaking but she doesn’t know he’s thereI want her everywhere and if she’s beside me
I know I need never care
But to love her is to need her everywhere
Knowing that love is to shareEach one believing that love never dies
Watching her eyes and hoping I’m always thereI want her everywhere and if she’s beside me
I know I need never care
But to love her is to need her everywhere
Knowing that love is to shareEach one believing that love never dies
Watching her eyes and hoping I’m always thereTo be there and everywhere
Here, there and everywhere(written by Lennon & McCartney)

Ann
Ann
I know I’ll never find another hunk of woman like my Ann
She makes me feel like a great big man
I’m gonna go tell her momma what I think about her, say thank you ma’am
For giving me your daughter AnnShe sure is stacked from her toes to the pretty little nape
Of her neck she’s packed like a seed in a grape
She’s smooth as marble skin
When I see her I believe I’m a real young guy
And when I go to work I think I might die
If I can’t hurry home again
If the good Lord works a hundred years at makin’ me a female plan
I’d say, no, thanks, Lord, I’ll just keep AnnHow could I ever look at any other woman when I’ve got Ann
I feel so good when she takes my hand
I’m gonna go tell her daddy what I think about her, say thank you, man
For giving me your daughter AnnWhen I come home and feel like I’ve been run over
By a ten ton truck she can rub my shoulder
And ease my aches and pains
When I lose my job and I’m down to a silver dollar
And I feel like a dried up gourd in a holler
She soothes my brow like summer rain
If the good Lord works all night at makin’ me a female plan
I’d say, no, thanks, Lord, I’ll just keep Ann
One more time!I know I’ll never find another hunk of woman like my Ann
She makes me feel like a great big man
If the good Lord worked a hundred years at makin’ me a female plan
I’d say, no thanks, Lord, I’ll just keep Ann
I’d say, no thanks, Lord, I’ll just keep Ann
Yeah!(written by Billy Edd Wheeler)

Babe I Hate To Go
Babe I Hate To Go
All my bags are packed, I’m ready to go, I’m standing here outside your door,
I hate to wake you up to say good-bye.
But the dawn is breaking, it’s early morn, the taxi’s waiting He’s blowing his horn.
Already I’m so lonesome I could die.So kiss me and smile for me, tell me that you’ll wait for me, hold me like you’ll never let me go.
‘Cause I’m leaving on a jet plane, don’t know when I’ll be back again. Oh, babe, I hate to go.There’s so many times I’ve let you down, so many times I’ve played around,
I tell you now they don’t mean a thing.Every place I go I’ll think of you, every song I sing I’ll sing for you,
when I come back, I’ll bring your wedding ring.So kiss me and smile for me, tell me that you’ll wait for me, hold me like you’ll never let me go.
‘Cause I’m leaving on a jet plane, don’t know when I’ll be back again. Oh, babe, I hate to go.Now the time has come to leave you, one more time let me kiss you,
then close your eyes, I’ll be on my way.Dream about the days to come when I won’t have to leave alone,
about the times I won’t have to say:kiss me and smile for me, tell me that you’ll wait for me, hold me like you’ll never let me go.
‘Cause I’m leaving on a jet plane, don’t know when I’ll be back again. Oh, babe, I hate to go.
I’m leaving on a jet plane, don’t know when I’ll be back again. Oh, babe, I hate to go.(written by John Denver)

Yesterday
Yesterday
Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away
Now it looks as though they’re here to stay
Oh, I believe in yesterday.Suddenly, I’m not half to man I used to be,
There’s a shadow hanging over me.
Oh, yesterday came suddenly.Why she had to go I don’t know she wouldn’t say.
I said something wrong, now I long for yesterday.Yesterday, love was such an easy game to play.
Now I need a place to hide away.
Oh, I believe in yesterday.(written by Lennon and McCartney)

Blues there are all very meanest kind
Blues my naughty sweetie gives to me
Oh, yeahOh, they’re blues you get from women when you see ’em goin’ swimmin’ and you haven’t got a bathin’ suit yourself
There are blues that start to flicker when you had a lot of liquor and someone goes and takes it off the shelf

Blues you keep a gettin’ in a taxicab a pettin’ every time you hear the meter jump the clockAnd there are blues you get from cryin’ when your uncle Will is dyin’ and he afterwards forgets you in his will
There are blues you get from kisses when you are walkin’ with the missus and another baby shouts, “Hey, Bill!”
Blues that kinda make you hop and really shake and shiver, kinda make you want to end it all in the river
Blues my naughty sweetie gives to me
Oh, play that thing!Now there are blues you get from women when you see ’em goin’ swimmin’ and you haven’t got a bathin’ suit your own self

What’s That I Hear Now?
What’s that I hear now ringing in my ear
I’ve heard that sound before
What’s that I hear now ringing in my ear
I hear it more and more
It’s the sound of freedom calling
Ringing up to the sky
It’s the sound of the old ways falling
You can hear it if you try
You can hear it if you tryWhat’s that I see now shining in my eyes
I’ve seen that light before
What’s that I see now shining in my eyes
I see it more and more
It’s the light of freedom shining
Shining up to the sky
It’s the light of the old ways a dying
You can see it if you tryWhat’s that I feel now beating in my heart

Darcy Farrow
Darcy Farrow
Where the walker runs down to the Carson Valley Plain
There lived a maiden, Darcy Farrow was her name
The daughter of old Dundee and a fair one was she
The sweetest flower that bloomed oer the rangeHer voice was as sweet as the sugar candy
Her touch was as soft as a bed of goose down
Her eyes shone bright like the pretty lights
That shone in the night out of Yerrington townShe was courted by Young Vandamere
A fine lad was he as I am to hear
He gave her silver rings and lacy things
And she promised to wed before the snows came that yearBut her pony did stumble and she did fall
Her dyin touched the hearts of us one and all
Young Vandy in his pain put a bullet through his brain
And we buried them together as the snows began to fallThey sing of Darcy Farrow where the Truckee runs through
They sing of her beauty in Virginia City too
At dusky sundown to her name they drink a round
And to young Vandy whose love was true(written by Steve Gillette)

In My Life
In My Life
There are places I remember
All my life, though some have changed
Some forever not for better
Some have gone and some remain
All these places have their moments
With lovers and friends I still can recall
Some are dead and some are living
In my life I’ve loved them allBut of all these friends and lovers
There is no one compares with you
And these memories lose their meaning
When I think of love as something new
Though I know I’ll never lose affection
For people and things that went before
I know I’ll often stop and think about them
In my life I love you moreThough I know I’ll never lose affection
For people and things that went before
I know I’ll often stop and think about them
In my life I love you more
In my life I love you more(written by Lennon and McCartney)

Farewell Party
Farewell Party
Don’t want no tears shed for me when I’m gone
Don’t want nobody to sing no melancholy song
Don’t want your partin’ words to become my eulogy
Just have a ragtime band to play when you say goodbye to meKeep that whiskey flowin’, boys, and raise your glasses high
I’m pleased to see you’re here to say “Farewell” and not “Goodbye”
Keep that whiskey flowin’, boys and raise your glasses high
And damn the man that dares to let my farewell party dieDon’t want no organ music bringin’ people down
Don’t want no long-faced mourners always hangin’ ’round
Don’t want no candles, ah, but let the flowers stay
Girls can wear them in their hair when they see me on my wayKeep that whiskey flowin’, boys, and raise your glasses high
I’m pleased to see you’re here to say “Farewell” and not “Goodbye”
Keep that whiskey flowin’, boys and raise your glasses high
And damn the man that dares to let my farewell party dieRoll the carpet back, my boys, and let the dancin’ start
Sing all the good old songs and don’t forget my part
Invite all the girls I’ve known and make sure they have fun
Hug and kiss ’em all for me like you know I would have doneKeep that whiskey flowin’, boys, and raise your glasses high
I’m pleased to see you’re here to say “Farewell” and not “Goodbye”
Keep that whiskey flowin’, boys and raise your glasses high
And damn the man that dares to let my farewell party dieKeep that whiskey flowin’, boys, and raise your glasses high
I’m pleased to see you’re here to say “Farewell” and not “Goodbye”
Keep that whiskey flowin’, boys and raise your glasses high

And damn the man that dares to let my farewell party dieRoll the carpet back, my boys, and let the dancin’ start
Sing all the good old songs and don’t forget my part
Invite all the girls I’ve known and make sure they have fun
Hug and kiss ’em all for me like you know I would have doneKeep that whiskey flowin’, boys, and raise your glasses high
I’m pleased to see you’re here to say “Farewell” and not “Goodbye”
Keep that whiskey flowin’, boys and raise your glasses high
And damn the man that dares to let my farewell party dieKeep that whiskey flowin’, boys, and raise your glasses high
I’m pleased to see you’re here to say “Farewell” and not “Goodbye”
Keep that whiskey flowin’, boys and raise your glasses high
And damn the man that dares to let my farewell party die(written by Bob Gibson and Bob Connelley)
