On every tree there sits a bird, singing a song of love
On every tree there sits a bird, and ev'ryone I ever heard Could break my heart without a word singing a song of love A song of love is a sad song, Hi-Lili, Hi-Lili, Hi-Lo A song of love is a song of woe, don't ask me how I know A song of love is a sad song, for I have loved and it's so I sit at the window and watch the rain, Hi-Lili, Hi-Lili, Hi-Lo Tomorrow I'll probably love again, Hi-Lili, Hi-Lili, Hi-Lo A tear for him, a tear for me, A tear for the love he swore A tear for him and one for me, and one for under the cedar tree And one for where ever my love my be, and then I shall weep no more A song of love is a sad song, Hi-Lili, Hi-Lili, Hi-Lo A song of love is a song of woe, don't ask me how I know A song of love is a sad song, for I have loved and it's so I sit at the window and watch the rain, Hi-Lili, Hi-Lili, Hi-Lo Tomorrow i'll probably love again, Hi-Lili, Hi-Lili, Hi-Lo |

Drivin' down the street just the other day I saw this real fine girl & stopped & said "You're goin' my way?" She said, "Thanks for the ride But before I get inside There's just one thing that I wanna say" (title twice) I drove to her house & dropped her by the gate I thought, I'm doin' all right, so I asked for a date She said "Meet me at 9 & you'd better be on time 'Cause I'll offer you to death if you show up late" (title twice) What in the world is wrong with this chick now? Somebody tell me, what makes her tick now? Some chicks do you wrong but this one wrongs you doubly I never saw a girl who was so hubbly bubbly! (title x4) |

"Oh no, not my baby; oh no, not my sweet baby Oh no, not my baby; oh no, not my sweet baby Not my girl" When my friends told me you had someone new I didn't believe a single word was true I told them all I had faith in you I just kept on sayin': "Oh no, not my baby; oh no, not my sweet baby She don't go with other guys & I don't think she would tell me lies" My mama told me when rumors spread There's truth somewhere & I should use my head But I didn't listen to a word she said I kept right on sayin': "Oh no, not my baby; oh no, not my sweet baby She's not like these other girls, you see & I believe she's in love with me Oh no no no no no, not my girl" Well, you might have had a last-minute fling But I am sure it didn't mean a thing 'Cause yesterday you accepted my ring & now I'm glad that I just kept on sayin': "Oh no, not my baby; oh no, not my sweet baby Oh no, not my baby; oh no, not my sweet baby Not my girl, not my girl |

On our block all of the guys call her flamingo
Cause her hair glows like the sun And her eyes can light the sky When she moves she walks so fine like a flamingo Crimson dress that clings so tight She's out of reach and out of sight When she walks by she brightens up the neighborhood Oh every guy would make her his if he just could If she just would Some sweet day I'll make her mine pretty flamingo Then every guy will envy me Cause paradise is where I'll be Pretty flamingo pretty flamingo When she walks by she brightens up the neighborhood Oh every guy would make her his if he just could If she just would (fade ing "sha la la la la la la la pretty flamingo" |

I just got out my little red book
The minute that you said good-bye. I thumbed right through my little red book I wasn't gonna sit and cry. And I went from A to Z; I took out every pretty girl in town. They danced with me, and while I held them, All I did was to talk about you. Hear your name and I'd start to cry There is just no getting over you. No girl who is in my little red book, Just ever could replace your love, And each girl in my little red book Knows you're the one I'm thinking of. Won't you please come back to me? Without your precious love I can't go on. Where can you be? I need you so much. All I do is talk about you, Hear your name and I start to cry There is just no getting over you. |

There's no living without your loving, baby
I love you too much If I can't love you till the day I die Then baby, oh baby, what good am I? If I can't reach out & know that you'll be there Then this ol' world ain't spinnin' anywhere There's no living without your loving Without the magic of your tender touch There's no living without your loving, baby I love you too much & I wouldn't want to live my life through Knowing in my heart I never will have you Oh, if I can't hold you & kiss you anymore Then what on earth am I living for? |
