Night and stars above that shine so bright
The myst'ry of their fading light That shines upon our caravanSleep upon my shoulder as we creep Across the sand so I may keep The mem'ry of our caravanThis is so exciting You are so inviting Resting in my arms As I thrill to the magic charmsOf you beside me here beneath the blue My dream of love is coming true Within our desert caravan! |

The way you wear your hat
The way you sip your tea The memory of all that No they can't take that away from me The way your smile just beams The way you sing off key The way you haunt my dreams No they can't take that away from me *We may never never meet again, on that bumpy road to love But I'll always, always keep the memory of The way you hold your knife The way we danced till three The way you changed my life No they can't take that away from me No they can't take that away from me *Repeat |

VERSE 1
Don't stamp your foot at me, It's impolite To stamp your foot at me Is not quite right. At man's ingratitude A woman winks, But such an attitude just stinks.REFRAIN 1 I have eyes for you to give you dirty looks. I have words that do not come from children's books there's a trick with a knife I'm learning to do And ev'rything I've got belongs to you. I've a powerful anesthesia in my fist, And the perfect wrist to give your neck atwist. There are hammerlock holds, I've mastered a few, And ev'rything I've got belongs to you. Share for share, share alike, You get struck each time I strike. You for me- me for me- I'll give you plenty of nothing. I'm not yours for better but for worse, And I've learned to give the well-known witches' curse. I've a terrible tongue, a temper for two, And ev'rything I've got belongs to you.VERSE 2 Don't raise your voice at me, That's very rude. To raise your voice at me Is rather crude. It's wrong essentially when woman yells, And confidentially, it smells.REFRAIN 2 I'll converse with you on politics at length, I'll protect you with my superhuman strength. If you're ever attacked I'll scream and say , "Boo!'' And ev'rything I've got belongs to you. I will never stray from home, I'll just stay put, 'Cause I've got a brand-new thing called athlete' s foot. I'm a victim of colds, anemia, too, And ev'rything I've got belongs to you. Off to bed we will creep, Then we'll sleep and sleep and sleep Till the birds start to peep. I'll give you plenty of nothing. I'll be |

In a mellow tone
Feeling fancy free And I'm not alone I've got company Everything's ok The live long day With this mellow song I can't go wrong In a mellow tone That's the way to live If you mope and groan Something's gotta give Just go your way And laugh and play There's joy unknown In a mellow tone (scat) In a mellow tone (bridge) In a mellow tone Feeling fancy free And I'm not alone I've got company Everything's ok The live long day With this mellow song I can't go wrong In a mellow tone That's the way to live If you mope and groan Something's gotta give Just go your way And laugh and play There's joy unknown In a mellow tone In a mellow tone In a mellow tone |

It's quarter to three, there's no one in the place
Except you and me So set 'em' up Joe, I got a little story I think you should know We're drinking my friend, to the end Of a brief episode Make it one for my baby And one more for the road I know the routine, put another nickel In the machine I feel kind of bad, can't you make the music Easy and sad I could tell you a lot, but it's not In a gentleman's code Make it one for my baby And one more for the road You'd never know it, but buddy I'm a kind of poet And I've got a lot of things I'd like to say And if I'm gloomy, please listen to me Till it's talked away Well that's how it goes, and Joe I know your gettin' Anxious to close Thanks for the cheer I hope you didn't mind My bending your ear But this torch that I found, It's gotta be drowned Or it's gonna explode Make it one for my baby And one more for the road |

Some folks were meant to live in clover,
But they are such a chosen few. And clover being green is something I've never seen 'Cause I was born to be blue. When there's a yellow moon above me, They say there's moonbeams I should view But moonbeams being gold are something I can't behold 'Cause I was born to be blue. When I met you the world was bright and sunny When you left the curtain fell I'd like to laugh but nothing strikes me funny Now my world's a faded pastel Well, I guess I'm luckier than some folks, I've known the thrill of loving you. And that alone is more than I was created for 'Cause I was born to be blue. |

I'm feeling mighty lonesome
Haven't slept a wink I walk the floor and watch the door And in between I drink Black Coffee Love's a hand me down brew I'll never know a Sunday In this weekday roomI'm talking to the shadows o'clock to 4 And Lord, how slow the moments go When all I do is pour Black Coffee Since the blues caught my eye I'm hanging out on Monday My Sunday dream's too dryNow a man is born to go a lovin' A woman's born to weep and fret To stay at home and tend her oven And drown her past regrets In coffee and cigarettesI'm moody all the morning Mourning all the night And in between it's nicotine And not much hard to fight Black Coffee Feelin' low as the ground It's driving me crazy just waiting for my baby To maybe come aroundMy nerves have gone to pieces My hair is turning gray All I do is drink black coffee Since my man's gone away |

I never feel a thing is real
When I'm away from you Out of your embrace The world's a temporary parking placeMmm, mm, mm, mm A bubble for a minute Mmm, mm, mm, mm You smile, the bubble has a rainbow in itSay, its only a paper moon Sailing over a cardboard sea But it wouldn't be make-believe If you believed in meYes, it's only a canvas sky Hanging over a muslin tree But it wouldn't be make-believe If you believed in meWithout your love It's a honky-tonk parade Without your love It's a melody played in a penny arcadeIt's a Barnum and Bailey world Just as phony as it can be But it wouldn't be make-believe If you believed in me |
