I wanna be free,
Like the bluebirds flying by me, Like the waves out on the blue sea, If your love has to tie me, Don't try me, say good-bye. I wanna be free, Don't say you love me, say you like me But when I need you beside me, Stay close enough to guide me, Confide in me, whoa-oh-oh. I wanna hold your hand, Walk along the sand, Laughing in the sun, Always having fun. Doing all those things Without any strings to tie me down. I wanna be free, Like the warm September wind, babe, Say you'll always be my friend, babe, We can make it to the end, babe, Again, babe, I've gotta say... I wanna be free, I wanna be free, I wanna be free. |

No heartaches, felt no longer lonely
Nights of waiting finally won me Happiness is all rolled up in you And now with you as inspiration I look toward a destination Sunny bright that once before was blue I have no more than I did before But now I've got all that I need For I love you and I know you love me So take my hand I'll start my journey Free from all the helpless worry That besets a man when he's alone For strength is mine when we're together And with you I know I'll never Have to pass the high road for the low I have no more than I did before But now I've got all that I need For I love you and I know you love me Play, magic fingers Eee haa Oh, pick up losers I have no more than I did before But now I've got all that I need For I love you and I know you love me Yes I love you and I know you love me |

Though you've played at love and lost
And sorrow's turned your heart to frost I will melt your heart again. Remember the feeling as a child When you woke up and morning smiled It's time you felt like you did then. There's just no percentage in remembering the past It's time you learned to live again at last. Come with me, leave yesterday behind And take a giant step outside your mind. You stare at me in disbelief You say for you there's no relieve But I swear I'll prove you wrong. Don't stay in your lonely room Just staring back in silent gloom. That's not where you belong Come with me I'll take you where the taste of life is green And everyday holds wonders to be seen. Come with me, leave yesterday behind And take a giant step outside your mind. |

I guess I should have stayed in bed,
My pillow wrapped 'round my head. Instead of waking up to find A nightmare of a different kind. She went away, This just doesn't seem to be my day. She didn't have to say a lot, Her pretty eyes revealed the plot. 'Twas someone else she want more, And so I walked her to the door. What can I say? This just doesn't seem to be my day. My, oh my, how sad am I. How I wish she would have stayed This just doesn't seem to be my day. My whole world is upside down, She turned my smile into a frown. It's such a pity the shape I'm in, I must get on my feet again. Can't stay this way This just doesn't seem to be my day. |

I'll be true to you, yes I will
I'll be true to you, yes I will I won't look twice when The other girls go by I'll be true to you, yes I will Somehow this time, it's all so clear to me The way to go is easy to see My heart is sure you're The girl I've waited for And I'll be true to you, yes I will Yes I will I used to be the kind Who said that every girl's the same And love was just a game for having fun But when I looked at you I knew that I was wrong And that I really could belong to only one I'll be true to you, yes I will Every dream that you have, I'll fulfill I never promised this to anyone before But I'll be true to you, yes I will I'll be true to you, yes I will Every dream that you have, I'll fulfill I never promised this to anyone before But I'll be true to you, yes I will Yes I will, yes I will |

Know that something very strange
Is happening to my brain. I'm either feeling very good Or else I am insane. The seeds of doubt you planted Have started to grow wild But feel that I must yield before The wisdom of a child And it's love you bring, No that I can't deny, With your wings, I can learn to fly, Sweet young thing. People try to talk to me Their words are ugly sounds But I resist all their attempts To try and bring me down Turned on to the sunset, Like I've never done before. And I listen for your footsteps And your know upon the door. And it's love you bring, With dreams of bluer skies All these things, When I seem them in your eyes Sweet young thing. |

By Tommy Boyce and Bobby Hart
You know my girl just called me up And she woke me from my sleep You should have heard the things she said You know she hurt my feelings deep. I'm gonna buy me a dog [A dog, a dog! Why?] 'Cause I need a friend now. [Say, you need all the friends you can get] I'm gonna buy me a dog, My girl, my girl, don't love me no how. She used to bring me my newspaper 'Cause she knew where it was at. She used to keep me so contented. But I can teach a dog to do that. I'm gonna buy me a dog, 'Cause I need a friend now I'm gonna buy me a dog, My girl, my girl, don't love me no how. |

If you think I want the life you choose to live
I don't think I want the love you've got to give If you think my goals could be so trivial and small Then, I don't think you know me at all Born between the covers of your fashion books You think you can make it, girl, on just your looks But you could never bring me up Between us stands a wall No, I don't think you know me at all Believing in the promise painted in your smile I've chased what I was running from, girl, all my life I've known you a hundred times in memories I recall, but I don't think you know me at all I don't think you know me at all. |
