People are queer, they're always crowing, scrambling and rushing about
Why don't they stop someday, address themselves this way? Why are we here? Where are we going? It's time that we found out We're not here to stay; we're on a short holiday Life is just a bowl of cherries Don't take it serious; it's too mysterious You work, you save, you worry so But you can't take your dough when you go, go, go So keep repeating it's the berries The strongest oak must fall The sweet things in life, to you were just loaned So how can you lose what you've never owned? Life is just a bowl of cherries So live and laugh at it all Life is just a bowl of cherries Don't take it serious; it's too mysterious At eight each morning I have got a date To take my plunge 'round the Empire State You'll admit it's not the berries In a building that's so tall There's a guy in the show, the girls love to kiss Get thousands a week just for crooning like this Life is just a bowl of, aw, nuts! So live and laugh at it all! |

I often wonder why he came to me
Brought such a flame to me And let it die And if another love should find my heart It will remind my heart of your goodbye With every new love you Will come back to me In others eyes, its you I see If I love again Though its someone new If I love again It'll still be you In someone else's firm embrace I'll close my eyes but see your face If I love again I'll find other charms But I'll make believe, you are in my arms And though my lips whisper "I love you" My heart will not be true I'll be loving Every time I love again |

Never could carry a tune, never knew where to start
You came along when everything was wrong and put a song in my heart Dear when you smiled at me, I heard a melody It haunted me from the start Something inside of me started a symphony Zing! Went the strings of my heart 'Twas like a breath of spring, I heard a robin sing About a nest set apart All nature seemed to be in perfect harmony Zing! Went the strings of my heart [Chorus] Your eyes made skies seem blue again What else could I do again But keep repeating through and through "I love you, love you" I still recall the thrill, guess I always will I hope 'twill never depart Dear, with your lips to mine, a rhapsody divine Zing! Went the strings of my heart Dear when you smiled at me, I heard a melody It haunted me from the start Something inside of me started a symphony Zing! Went the strings of my heart 'Twas like a breath of spring, I heard a robin sing About a nest set apart All nature seemed to be in perfect harmony Zing! Went the strings of my heart [Chorus] I still recall the thrill, I guess I always will I hope 'twill never depart Dear, with your lips to mine, a rhapsody divine Zing! Oh, Oh, Oh went the strings of my heart |

You go to my head
And you linger like a haunting refrain And I find you spinning 'round in my brain Like the bubbles in a glass of champagne. You go to my head Like a sip of sparkling burgundy brew And I find the very mention of you Like the kicker in a julep or two. The thrill of the thought That you might give a thought to my plea Casts a spell over me Till I say to myself Get ahold of yourself! Can't you see that it never can be? You go to my head With a smile that makes my temperature rise Like a summer with a thousand Julys. You intoxicate my soul with your eyes. Though I'm certain that this heart of mine Hasn't a ghost of a chance In this crazy romance, You go to my head. |

> The night is bitter,
The stars have lost their glitter, The winds grow colder And suddenly you're older, And all because of the man that got away. No more his eager call, The writing's on the wall, The dreams you dreamed have all Gone astray. The man that won you Has gone off and undone you. That great beginning Has seen the final inning. Don't know what happened. It's all a crazy game! No more that all-time thrill, For you've been through the mill, And never a new love will Be the same. Good riddance, good-bye! Every trick of his you're on to. But, fools will be fools, And where's he gone to? The road gets rougher, It's lonelier and tougher. With hope you burn up, Tomorrow he may turn up. There's just no letup the live-long night and day! Ever since this world began There is nothing sadder than A one-man woman looking for The man that got away, The man that got away. |

I'm gonna love you like nobody's loved you,
Come rain or come shine. High as a mountain and deep as a river, Come rain or come shine. I guess when you met me It was just one of those things, But don't ever bet me, "Cause I'm gonna be true if you let me. You're gonna love me like nobody's loved me, Come rain or come shine. Happy together, unhappy together And won't it be fine. Days may be cloudy or sunny, We're in or we're out of the money, But I'm with you always, I'm with you rain or shine. |

Free and easy, that's my style
Howdy-do me, watch me smile Fare-thee-well me after a while 'Cause I gotta roam And any place I hang my hat is home Sweetenin' water, cherry wine Thank you kindly, suits me fine Kansas City, Caroline That's my honeycomb 'Cause any place I hang my hat is home Birds roostin' in a tree Pick up and go, and the goin' proves That's how it oughta be I pick up too when the spirit moves me (I go where it behoves me) Cross the river, 'round the bend "Hello stranger!", "So long friend!" There's a voice in the lonesome wind That keeps whisp'ring, "Roam!" I'm going where a welcome mat is No matter where that is 'Cause any place I hang my hat is home |

I've been searching through rains
And the wind that follows after For one certain face And an unforgotten laughter I've been following signs I've been searching through the lands For a certain pair of arms And a certain pair of hands Yes, I tried a kiss here And I tried a kiss there For when you're out in company The boys and girls will pair But it never was you It never was anywhere you An occasional sunset reminded me Or a flower hanging high on a julep tree Or one red star hung low in the west Or a heart-break call from a Meadow Lark's nest Made me think for a moment Maybe its true I found him in the star In the call In the blue But it never was you It never was anywhere you Anywhere, anywhere you |

I'm sitting on top of this great big wonderful world
'Cause this is my lucky day, lucky day Oh boy, I'm lucky I'll say I'm lucky This is my lucky day I'm all in clover I'm glad all over I want to shout "hooray" I find a horseshoe Couldn't go wrong And then of course You happened along Oh boy, I'm lucky I'll say I'm lucky This is my lucky day Oh boy, I'm lucky I'll say I'm lucky This is my lucky day |

It seems like happiness is just a thing called Joe
He's got a smile that makes the lilacs want to grow He's got a way that makes the angels heave a sigh When they know little Joe's, passing by Sometimes the cabin's gloomey and the table's bare But then he'll kiss me and it's Christmas everywhere Trouble's fly away and life is easy go Does he love me good, that's all I need to know Seems like happiness, is just a thing called Joe Sometimes the cabin's gloomey and the table's bare But then he'll kiss me and it's Christmas everywhere Trouble's fly away and life is easy go Does he love me good, that's all I need to know Little Joe, my little Joe, little Joe! |

Hear that bluebird, up in a tree
Hear him, what a song, Joy he's bringing, singing to me Singing, all day long Goodbye to skies of gray. For I'm back home today... All day long I jump and run about You can always hear me shoutin' out: "Hello bluebird!" Got no time for blues or anything I'm so happy, I just wanna sing: "Hello bluebird!" Blue skies, sun shine Friends that are real Old folks, sweetheart Oh, how I feel! I'll not go roaming like I did again I'll stay home and be a kid again "Hello bluebird, hello!" All day long, I keep singing "Hello, I'm glad I found you, bluebird." Make yourself at home... No more blues, Just because I'm happy When I'm around you, bluebird. No more need to roam Up above the sun is shining The World is ideal I just can't describe the marvellous way That I feel... With nothing but the bluest skies above What a rosie future lies ahead Thank you, bluebird! Happy, happy, bluebird! Mister Bluebird, hello! |

I'll go, I'll go, I'll go my way by myself
This is the end of romance I'll go my way by myself, love is only a dance I'll try to apply myself and teach my heart how to sing I'll go my way by myself like a bird on the wing I'll face the unknown, I'll build a world of my own No one knows better than I myself, I'm by myself alone I'm sure that love's an overrated past time It's the last time I'll ever be anything but fancy free For love is just a junior high version, one way excursion I'm sure that I am old enough to fly alone And I'll face the unknown, I'll build a world of my own No one knows better than I myself I'm by myself alone, I'll go, I'll go by myself alone |

When April showers may come your way
They bring the flowers that bloom in May So when it's raining have no regrets Because it isn't raining rain you know It's raining violets And when you see clouds up on a hill You know they'll bring crowds of daffodils So just keep looking for a bluebird And listening for his song Whenever April showers come along And when you see clouds up on the hill You know there'll be crowds of daffodils So just keep looking for a bluebird And listening for his song Whenever April showers come a-long... |

Somewhere over the rainbow, way up high
There's a land that I heard of once in a lullaby Somewhere over the rainbow, skies are blue And the dreams that you dare to dream really do come true Someday I'll wish upon a star And wake up where the clouds are far behind me Where troubles melt like lemon drops Away above the chimney tops That's where you'll find me Somewhere over the rainbow, bluebirds fly Birds fly over the rainbow Why then, oh why can't I? If happy little bluebirds fly beyond the rainbow Why, oh why can't I? |
