Take the last train to Clarksville, And I'll meet you at the station. You can be be there by four thirty, 'Cause I made your reservation. Don't be slow, oh, no, no, no! Oh, no, no, no! 'Cause I'm leavin' in the morning And I must see you again We'll have one more night together 'Til the morning brings my train. And I must go, oh, no, no, no! Oh, no, no, no! And I don't know if I'm ever coming home. Take the last train to Clarksville. I'll be waiting at the station. We'll have time for coffee flavored kisses And a bit of conversation. Oh... Oh, no, no, no! Oh, no, no, no! Take the last train to Clarksville, Now I must hang up the phone. I can't hear you in this noisy Railroad station all alone. I'm feelin' low. Oh, no, no, no! Oh, no, no, no! And I don't know if I'm ever coming home. Take the last train to Clarksville, Take the last train to Clarksville, [repeat and fade] |

All men must have someone, have someone
Who would never take advantage Of a love bright as the sun. Someone to understand them, And you just may be the one. All men must have someone, have someone Who would never take for granted All the pleasures and the fun. Someone to stand beside them And you just may be the one. I saw when you walked by The love light in your eye And I knew I must try To win you more than just a friend, I'm starting near the end, And I go again. All men must have someone, have someone Who would never take advantage Of a love bright as the sun. Someone to stand beside them And you just may be the one. Someone to understand them, And you just may be the one. |

You tell me that you've never been this way before.
You tell me things I know that I've heard somewhere. You're standing in the places and you're staring down through faces, that bring to mind traces of a girl, a girl that I knew somewhere. I just can't put my finger on what it is that says to me "Watch out! Don't believe her." I can't give any reasons girl, my thoughts are bound down in a whirl. I just can't think who in the world was that girl; I know I met her somewhere. Someway, somehow this same thing was done. Someone, somewhere did me this same wrong. Well, goodbye dear, I just can't take this chance again. My fingers are still burning from the last time. And if your love was not a game, I only have myself to blame. That's as may be, I can't explain. Just ask the girl that I knew somewhere. ------------- Lyrics Powered by LyricFind Written By NESMITH, MICHAEL Lyrics © EMI Music Publishing |

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. |

She owns and operates
Her own sunshine factory Of painting smiles on dolls And then on me She's my sunny girlfriend And personality. Well, she's got a book That tells about everybody's past And she can make you slow While making your mind move fast She's my sunny girlfriend And she is never last. Oh, while I am sleeping Then she comes creeping Into my thoughts at night Gazing down through eyes As bright as wonder. She can send you on your way To everywhere She's only started After you think that she is there. Well, she's my sunny girlfriend, And she just doesn't care. Yes, she's my sunny girlfriend, She doesn't really care. |

She knows her mind all right, your Auntie Grizelda,
She says she knows my kind, she might, maybe so. Oh, yeah, she's raised you right, your Auntie Grizelda, You only know the things she wants you to know. I know she's having a fit, She doesn't like me a bit, No bird of grace ever lit on Auntie Grizelda. You can't begrudge her style, your Auntie Grizelda, She couldn't budge a smile and do it for free. So righteous making fudge, your Auntie Grizelda, So proper judging others over her tea. You look just like her you do, I know by looking at you, That you've been listening to your Auntie Grizelda. Oh, no, don't look at me like Auntie Grizelda It takes much more to be someone of your own. You've got to make it free from Auntie Grizelda Or just like her you'll have to make it alone. I know she's having a fit, She doesn't like me a bit, No bird of grace ever lit on Auntie Grizelda. Auntie Grizelda, Auntie Grizelda |

By Douglas Farthing Hatlelid
Forget that girl, She'll only make you sad someday. Forget that girl, She'll never make you happy. Stay away from her, my friend, Stay away from her. Forget that girl, She'll only bring you down again. Forget that girl, She'll only make you lonely. Stay away from her, my friend, Stay away from her. There was a time when she could really love you When she was thinking only of you But now she's thrown herself above you And there's nothing you can do. Forget that girl, Even tho you find it's hard. Forget that girl, Even though you love her. She's in love with him, my friend, She's in love with him. Oh yeah, she's in love with him....... |

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. |

Mary, mary, where you goin' to?
Mary, mary, can I go too. This one thing I will vow ya, I'd rather die than to live without ya. Mary, mary, where you goin' to? Mary, mary, tell me truly What did I do to make you leave me. Whatever it was I didn't mean to, You know I never would try and hurt ya. Mary, mary, where you goin' to? What more, mary, can I do To prove my love is truly yours? I've done more now than a clear-thinkin' man would do. Mary, mary, it's not over. Where you go, I will follow. 'til I win your love again And walk beside you, But until then. Mary, mary, where you goin' to? Mary, mary, where you goin' to? Mary, where you goin' to? Mary, mary, mary, mary, mary, where you goin' to? |

I thought love was only true in fairy tales
Meant for someone else but not for me. Love was out to get me That's the way it seemed. Disappointment haunted all my dreams. Then I saw her face, now I'm a believer Not a trace of doubt in my mind. I'm in love, I'm a believer! I couldn't leave her if I tried. I thought love was more or less a given thing, Seems the more I gave the less I got. What's the use in tryin'? All you get is pain. When I needed sunshine I got rain. Then I saw her face, now I'm a believer Not a trace of doubt in my mind. I'm in love, I'm a believer! I couldn't leave her if I tried. |

She's a wonderful lady and she's mine, all mine/ and there doesn't seem a way that she won't come and lose my mind./It's too easy hummin' songs to a girl in yellow dress/it's been a long time since the party and the room is in a mess/
The four kings of EMI are sitting stately on the floor/there are birds out on the sidewalk and a valet at the door/he reminds me of a penguin, with few and plastered hair/there's talcum powder on the letter, and the birthday boy is there/ Why don't you cut your hair?!/Why don't you live up there?!/Why don't you do what I do, see what I feel when I care?!/ Now they've darkened all the windows and the seats in naughahyde/I've been waiting for an hour, I can't find a place to hide/the being known as wonder girl is speaking I believe/it's not easy trying to tell her that I shortly have to leave/ Why don't you be like me?!/Why don't you stop and see?!/Why don't you hate who I hate, kill who I kill to be free?!/ Why don't you cut your hair?!/Why don't you live up there?!/Why don't you do what I do, see what I feel when I care?!/ Why don't you be like me?!/Why don't you stop and see?!/Why don't you hate who I hate, kill who I kill to be free?!/ Why don't you cut your hair?!/Why don't you live up there?!/Why don't you do what I do, see what I feel when I care?! |

I-I-I-I-I'm not your steppin' stone,
I-I-I-I-I'm not your steppin' stone. You're trying to make your mark in society, You're using all the tricks that you used on me, You're reading all them high-fashion magazines, The clothes you're wearing, girl, they're causing public scenes. I said, I-I-I-I-I'm not your steppin' stone, I-I-I-I-I'm not your steppin' stone. (No!) Not your steppin' stone, Not your steppin' stone, When I first met you, girl, you didn't have no shoes, But, now you're walking around like you're front page news, You've been awful careful 'bout the friends you choose, But, you won't find my name in your book of "Who's Who". I said, I-I-I-I-I'm not your steppin' stone, (No, girl, not me!) I-I-I-I-I'm not your steppin' stone. (No!) Not your steppin' stone, I'm not your steppin' stone, Not your steppin' stone, Not your steppin' stone, Not your steppin' stone, Not your steppin' stone, No, girl, I'm not your steppin' stone, Not your steppin' stone, Not your steppin' stone, Not your steppin' stone, |
