- A Woman Likes To Be Told

Clings to every word you say
- Anything Goes

And we've often rewound the clock

Singing carols, stringing popcorn
Making footprints in the snow

Cookies baking in the kitchen
Cards and ribbons everywhere
Frosty Christmas mem'ries

I make a date for golf
And you can bet your life it rains
My flat warming got started
But the btch next door complained
It seems ill spend my whole life
Catching colds and missing trains
- Gee, I Wish I Was Back in the Army
When I was mustered out
I thought without a doubt
That I was through with all my care and strife
I thought that I was then
The happiest of men
But after months of tough civilian life
Gee, I wish I was back in the Army
- Give Myself A Party
I've got a lot of memories
To last me the rest of my life
So if you don't wanna love me
Baby, that'd be all right
I'm gonna take all the lovin'
That I have for you
I'm gonna take all the loneliness
Sit right down with the blues
- Half as Much
If you loved me half as much as I love you
You wouldn't worry me half as much as you do
You're nice to me when there's no one else around
You only build me up to let me down
If you missed me half as much as I miss you
You wouldn't stay away half as much as you do
I know that I would never be this blue
- Hey Mambo
A girl went back to Napoli
Because she missed the scenery
The native dances and the charming songs
But wait a minute, something's wrong
Hey, mambo! Mambo italiano!
Hey, mambo! Mambo italiano
Go, go, go you mixed up sicialiano
All you calabraise-a do the mambo like a crazy with a
- Hey There
Lately when I'm in my room all by myself
In the solitary gloom I call to myself
Hey there, you with the stars in your eyes
Love never made a fool of you
You used to be too wise
Hey there, you on that high-flyin' cloud
Though he won't throw a crumb to you
You think some day he'll come to you
- I Got Lost In His Arms
Don't ask me just how it happened,
I wish I knew.
I can't believe that it's happened,
and still it's true.
I got lost in his arms, and I had to stay.
It was dark in his arms, and I lost my way.
From the dark came a voice, and it seemed to say,
- In the Cool, Cool, Cool of the Evening
Sue wants a barbeque.
Sam wants to boil a ham.
Grace votes for builabaise stew.
Jake wants a weenie bake,
stake and a layer cake.
He'll get a tummy ache, too.
We'll rent a tent or teepee.
Let the town cryer cry.
- It Never Entered My Mind
Once I laughed when I heard you saying
That I'd be playing solitaire
Uneasy in my easy chair
It never entered my mind
And once you told me I was mistaken
That I'd awaken with the sun
And ordered orange juice for one
- Let It Snow
Oh, the weather outside is frightful,
But the fire is so delightful,
And since we've no place to go,
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow.
It doesn't show signs of stopping,
And I brought some corn for popping;
The lights are turned way down low,
- Let's Get Away from It All
Let's take a boat to Bermuda
Let's take a plane to Saint Paul.
Let's grab a kayak to Quincy or Nyack,
Let's get away from it all.
Let's take a trip in a trailer
No need to come back at all.
Let's take a powder to Boston for chowder,

- Love Is Here To Stay
It's very clear, our love is here to stay.
Not for a year but ever and a day
The radio and the telephone and the movies that we know
May just be passing fancies and in time may go.
But oh my dear our love is here to stay.
Together we're going a long long way.
- Mambo Italiano
A girl went back to Napoli
Because she missed the scenery
The native dances and the charming songs
But wait a minute, something's wrong

Go, go, go you mixed up sicialiano
- Mandy
I was strolling out one evening by the silv'ry moon
I could hear somebody singing a familiar tune
So I stopped a while to listen
Not a word I wanted to miss
It was just somebody serenading something like this
Mandy
There's a minister handy
- Manhattan
We'll have Manhattan
the Bronx and Staten Island too.
It's lovely going through the zoo!
It's very fancy on old Delancy street you know.
The subway charms us so when balmy breezes blow to and fro.
And tell me what street compares with Mott Street in July?
- Me and My Teddy Bear
In the house next door right next to mine
A little boy lives there
At Xmas time dear Santa Claus
Brought him a teddy bear
He loves his little teddy bear
He's with it all day long
And the sweetest thing I've ever heard
- Shot Gun Boogie
There it stands in the corner with the barrel so straight
I looked out the window and over the gate
The big, fat rabbits are a-jumpin' in the grass
Wait'll they hear my old shotgun blast
Shotgun Boogie, I done saw your tracks
Look out Mr. Rabbit when I cock my hammer back
Well, over on the ridge is a scaly bark
- Sister's with Betty Clooney
Sisters, sisters
There were never such devoted sisters
Never had to have a chaperon, no sir
I'm here to keep my eye on her
Caring, sharing
Every little thing that we are wearing
When a certain gentleman arrived from Rome
She wore the dress and I stayed home
- Snow
Snow
It won't be long before we'll all be there with snow
Snow
I want to wash my hands, my face and hair with snow
Snow
I long to clear a path and lift a spade of snow
Snow
- Suzy Snowflake
Here comes Suzy Snowflake
Dressed in a snow white gown
Tap, tap, tappin' at your windowpane
To tell you she's in town
Here comes Suzy Snowflake
Soon you will hear her say
Come out everyone and play with me
- Sway
When marimba rhythms start to play
Dance with me, make me sway
Like a lazy ocean hugs the shore
Hold me close, sway me more
Like a flower bending in the breeze
Bend with me, sway with ease
When we dance you have a way with me
- Sweet Betsy From Pike
Too-ra-li-oo-ra-li-oo-ra-li-ay.
Oh don't you remember Sweet Betsy from Pike,
Who crossed the big mountains with her lover Ike,
Two yoke of cattle, a large yeller dog,
A tall Shanghai rooster, and a one-spotted hog.
One evening quite early they camped on the Platte,
- Sweet Kentucky Ham
It's 6 P.M., supper time in South Bend, Indiana
And you figure what the hell you can eat in your motel
So you order up room service on the phone
And you watch the local news and eat alone
You've gotta take what little pleasures you can find
When you got sweet Kentucky ham on your mind, on your mind
Nothin' but sweet Kentucky ham on your mind
- The Unbirthday Song
Statistics prove, prove that you’ve one birthday
One birthday every year
But there are three hundred and sixty four unbirthdays
That is why we’re gathered here to cheer
A very merry unbirthday to you, to you
A very merry unbirthday to you, to you
It’s great to drink to someone
And I guess that you will do A very merry unbirthday to you
- They All Laughed
The odds were a hundred to one against me
The world thought the heights were too high to climb
But people from Missouri never incensed me
Oh, I wasn't a bit concerned
For from hist'ry I had learned
How many, many times the worm had turned
They all laughed at Christopher Columbus when he said the world was round
They all laughed when Edison recorded sound
- This Ole House
This ole house once knew his children
This ole house once knew his wife
This ole house was home and comfort
As they fought the storms of life
This old house once rang with laughter
This old house heard many shouts
Now he trembles in the darkness
When the lightnin' walks about
- You Love Me Just Enough To Hurt Me
Going through my closet the other day
Found an old yearbook, flipped right to the page
Of that senior trip down there on that Panama strip
We all started yelling when we smelled the beach
Couldn't wait to try our fake ids
We only had a few days, and a whole lot of memories to make
Oh man we were livin', didn't waste one minute
- You're In Kentucky
When you see a field where grass is blue
And everything looks good to you
You're in Kentucky, sure as you're born
When a million sunbeams, light your way
Says ''c'mon stranger won't you stay'
You're in Kentucky, sure as you're born
- Yours Sincerely
Yours sincerely
The one who loves you dearly
To think about it nearly takes my breath away
Very truly
My passion is unruly
A dream of you is newly born each night and day
