Blue Light Boogie

Originally performed by: Louis Jordan
Covered by various other artists



They did the Boogie real slow with the blue lights way down low
They did the Boogie real slow with the blue lights way down low

I went to a party, was nothin’ there but bobby socks
Went to a party, man you oughta seen ‘em to reel and rock
They did the Boogie real slow with the blue lights way down low
They did the Boogie real slow with the blue lights way down low

I started rockin’, man I threw my left foot out
I started swingin’, somebody begin to shout
You got to Boogie real slow with the blue lights way down low
You got to Boogie real slow with the blue lights way down low

The girls boys, they made so much noise
They even had a raid
But when the police got there all they could find
Was ice cream and lemonade

Oh what a party
I'm so glad I didn't stay at home
Oh what a party
They didn't treat me like I was a chaperone
They did the Boogie real slow with the blue lights way down low
They did the Boogie real slow with the blue lights way down low

I started rockin’, man I threw my left foot out
I started swingin’, somebody begin to shout
You got to Boogie real slow with the blue lights way down low
You got to Boogie real slow with the blue lights way down low

The Women had they're heads laid on their fellas' shoulders
Who were boogie-woogeyin’ and squeezin’ em up in the room
I couldn't see how they was dancin
Cuz their feet, they didn't move

Oh what a party
I'm so glad I didn't stay at home
Oh what a party
They didn't treat me like I was a chaperone
They did the Boogie real slow with the blue lights way down low
They did the Boogie real slow with the blue lights way down low

Blue Light
Composer(s): David Gilmour
Performer(s): David Gilmour



She's a blue light, yes it cannot be denied
She will give you back your pride
She squeezes, she freezes, she does what she pleases
But she says she thinks of others, all the time

You must rise to her defense when she's in danger
Turn around and you're looking at a stranger
She steals your savings from under your bed
And leads you into places even angels fear to tread
She's a blue light

She's not amused, when you're trying to upstage her
So you choose to do nothing to enrage her
'Cause under her mantle you feel safe from the cold
And you're safe from the danger of ever growing old
She's a blue light

Blue Kentucky Girl
Composer(s): Johnny Mullins
Originally performed by: Loretta Lynn
Covered by various other artists



You left me for the bright lights of the town 
A country boy set out to see the world
Remember when those city lights shine down
That big old moon shines on your Kentucky girl

I swear I love you by the moon above you 
How bright is it shinin' in your world
Some mornings when you wake up all alone
Just come on home to your blue Kentucky girl

Don't waste to bring great riches home to me 
I need no diamond rings or fancy pearls
Just bring yourself you're all I'll ever need
That's good enough for this blue Kentucky girl
I swear I love you by stars...

Looking good but you don't rip loud
Oh you move me and
Ooh I need your lovin'

You're my blue jean baby
You're my blue jean baby

Driving, driving, driving, me out of my tiny mind

Turn ups, high heel boots
Send the shivers down my spine
The things you say, it suits
Put this way you look fine

Ooh I need your lovin'
Ooh I need your loving babe

You're my blue jean baby
You're my blue jean baby
You're my blue jean baby
Driving, driving, driving, me out of my tiny mind

Blue Jean - I just met me a girl named blue Jean
Blue Jean - she got a camouflaged face and no money
Remember they always let you down when you need 'em
Oh, blue Jean-is heaven any sweeter than blue Jean
She got a police bike
She got a turned up nose

Sometimes I feel like
(oh, the whole human race)
Jazzin' for blue Jean
(oh, and when my blue Jean's blue)
Blue Jean can send me
(oh, somebody send me)
Somebody send me
(oh, somebody send me)

One day I'm gonna write a poem in a letter
One day I'm gonna get that faculty together
Remember like everybody has to wait in line
Blue Jean-look out world you know I've got mine
She got latin roots
She got everything

Sometimes I feel like
(oh, the whole human race)
Jazzin' for blue Jean
(oh, and when my blue Jean's blue)
Blue Jean can tempt me
(oh, somebody send me)
Somebody sent me

Performer(s): The Beatles
and various other artists



There's a fog upon L.A.
And my friends have lost their way
We'll be over soon they said
Now they've lost themselves instead
Please don't be long please don't you be very long
Please don't be long or I may be asleep
Well it only goes to show
And I told them where to go
Ask a policeman on the street
There's so many there to meet
Please don't be long please don't you be very long
Please don't be long or I may be asleep
Now it's past my bed I know
And I'd really like to go
Soon will be the break of day
Sitting here in Blue Jay Way
Please don't be long please don't you be very long
Please don't be long or I may be asleep
Please don't be long please don't you be very long
Please don't be long
Please don't be long please don't you be very long
Please don't be long
Please don't be long please don't you be very long
Please don't be long
Don't be long - don't be long - don't be long
Don't be long - don't be long - don't be long

There Is A Time
((French & Italian Versions: Le Temps (Charles Aznavour); Il Tempo (Charles Aznavour))
Composer(s): Charles Aznavour - Gene Lees - Jeff Davis
Performer(s): Liza Minnelli; Nana Mouskouri



Come to my arms and I will be so tender
Let me reveal all that living can be
Snug like a child in the shadow of my shoulder
Then as I hold you, you may start lovin' me

There is a time for spring and for sighing
A time for love
A time to for crying
A time for dreams and for sweet pretending
And then it seems that suddenly its ending

This time, this time, this time there's no time to waste
We know the time we have can not be replaced
This time, this time, this time let's not hesitate
We know our time is brief and it can not wait

There is a time for hope and beginning
A time to lose a time to for winning
A time to waste on lazy vacations
And a time for haste and beautiful temptations

This time, this time this time there's no time to waste
We know the time we have can not be replaced
This time this time this time let's not hesitate
We know our time is brief and it can not wait

There is a time for fame and for glory
A time for pride, a time to be sorry
A time to drift on wide summer riddles
A time for snow and icicles and shivers

This time, this time, this time there's no time to waste
We know the time we have can not be replaced
This time, this time, this time let's not hesitate
We know our time is brief and it can not wait

There is a time of Autumn and sadness
A time for youth and love's happy madness
A time for truth and being together
To go for walks in sunny, brittle weather

This time, this time, this time there's no time to waste
We fade away as fast as the morning breaks
This time, this time, this time let's not hesitate
So take my love, my life my eagerness this time

This time, this time this time there's no time to waste
We fade away as fast as the morning breaks
This time this time this time let's not hesitate
So take my love, my life my eager kiss 
For time flows on
And on, and on

It's been a blue holiday since you've been gone
Oh my darling, won't you hurry, hurry home
It's been a blue holiday I'm all alone

I cry when I hear the chapel bells ring
And sometimes I cry all through the night
Please oh please come, come back to me
And make my holiday bright
It's been a blue holiday my heart's in pain
My dear, I pray to have your love again

Blue blue blue blue blue holiday my heart's in pain
My dear, I pray to have your love again
I pray to have your love again
It's been a blue blue holiday

Night and you and Blue Hawaii 
The night is heavenly and you are heaven to me 
Lovely you and Blue Hawaii 
With all this loveliness there should be love

Dreams come true in Blue Hawaii 
And mine could all come true this magic night of nights with you 
Come with me while the moon is on the sea (the moon is on the sea) 
The night is young and so are we (so are we) 
Dreams come true in Blue Hawaii 
And mine could all come true this magic night of nights with you

Please tell her there’s somebody on the telephone
[Girl] Ah you the man who phoned before, she’s in the bath
I'll call her through the door,but she can’t come to the phone I’m sure
[Claude] Ask her to please me, tell her it’s quite important just go and see
[Girl] Say you want something from my mamma
Each time she hears you ring, she says "shhh tell him I'm not in"

[Claude] But tell me are you enjoying school?
Now I suppose you’re learning the golden rule
[Girl] Oh yes, schools a little way away
Because mummy works a neighbour takes me there each day
Cometimes a friends daddy calls for me
Cos I’m the one with no daddy you see
[Claude] Oh tell her it’s been long
Six years of loneliness that’s how old you are I guess
[Girl] Oh no, I’m five no more
But you must have known my mummy before
She never told me your name though, hold on don’t go

[Claude] Tears on the telephone, I cry pretending
Her voice is kissing mine as we make love along the line
Tears on the telephone, my dream is ending
Though not so long ago, she loved me so

[Claude] In summer you’ll go to St Tropez
The same old Grand Hotel there, do you swim each day?
[Girl] Oh yes, I’m a good swimmer, I love the sand as well
But tell me how do you know about the Grand Hotel?
When did you stay at St Tropez?
[Claude] Oh tell her I need you, I love the two of you, yes the two of you
[Girl] Love us two, I’ve never set eyes on you, is there something wrong?
You’re talking differently, oh don’t cry don’t cry

[Claude] Tears on the telephone, I cry pretending
Her voice is kissing mine as we make love along the line
Tears on the telephone, my dream is ending
Though not so long ago she loved me so, I didn’t mean to cry
Tears on the telephone but it’s goodbye now
For I’ll be on a flight leaving tonight

[Claude] Oh do try again now
[Girl] But she’s leaving
[Claude] Please try to stop her
[Girl] I can’t she’s gone
[Claude] Well if she’s gone then, I’ll say goodbye
[Girl] Goodbye mister
[Claude] Goodbye little one

Please hear the song
My blue guitar is playing
Why did you go away
The song is saying

Listen to my
Blue guitar call to you
While my heart is aching
And breaking in two

Every note repeats I want you
Night and day, my song will haunt you
Till things are like they were before
And you are in my arms once more

Play, play, my blue guitar
Tell her that I love her so
Play, play, my blue guitar
True love will find a way, I know

Play, play, my blue guitar
Tell her that I love her so
Play, play, my blue guitar
True love will find a way, I know

Every note repeats I want you
Night and day, my song will haunt you
Till things are like they were before
And you are in my arms once more

Blue Guitar
Composer(s): Justin Hayward
Performer(s): Justin Hayward



Blue guitar
Fortune of my ways
Making of my days
New chord
Counting up the ways
Happiness is lazy

If you don't know the song
If you can't put the words to the tune
Tell the rhyme from the reason
What should it matter
To the fool or the dreamer

New hope
Travellers in a storm
Finding love is warm
New day
The world has just begun
Our eyes have seen the sun

If you don't know the way
If you can't see the wood for the trees
Taste the wine from the water
Well what should it matter
To the fool or the dreamer

Blue Gardenia
Performer(s): Nat King Cole



Blue gardenia
Now I'm alone with you
And I am oh so blue
She has tossed us aside
And like you, gardenia
Once I was near her heart
After the teardrops start
Where are teardrops to hide
I lived for an hour
What more can I tell
Love bloomed like a flower
Then the petals fell
Blue gardenia
Thrown to a passing breeze
But rest in my book
Of memories
I lived for an hour
What more can I tell
Love bloomed like a flower
Then the petals fell
Blue gardenia
Thrown to a passing breeze
But rest in my book
Of memories

Blue For You
Composer(s): Alan Lancaster; Rob Young
Performer(s): Status Quo



When I get old and find the time
I’ll paint a picture about my life
I’ll paint it blue for you, I’ll paint it blue for you
You gave me love, a love so strong
I treated you so bad, I treated you wrong
Now I want to show, I feel so low, I’m blue for you

When I was younger I tried so hard
To find a good woman and give her my love
I found a woman sweet as can be, I found a woman for me
I didn’t know I had the world
I was still looking for ways to your love
Now that I know, I feel so low, I’m blue for you

Cheatin’ and lyin’, I played around
Livin’ and dyin’, you stood your ground
Cheatin’ and lyin’, you knew so well
There’s no good denying, you know me too well

When I’m alone I realise
Your eyes were smilin’ but deep inside
I saw the blue in you, everything blue for you
You gave me love, a love so strong
I treated you so bad, I treated you wrong
Now I want to show, I feel so low, I’m blue for you
Feel so low, I’m blue for you
I feel so low I’m blue for you

Blue Feeling 
Composer(s): Henshaw
Performer(s): The Animals



Sit here and wonder what am I so blue
Is it because I'm still in love with you?
Blue blue feeling got me down today
Blue blue feeling, my baby's gone away

Now that she's gone, I don't know what I'll do
I guess I'll have to find, find somebody new
Blue blue feeling got me down today
Blue blue feeling, my baby's gone away

Baby please don't leave me, oh don't leave me

Now that she's gone, I'm feeling kind of blue
I guess I'll have to find, find somebody new
Blue blue feeling got me down today
Blue blue feeling, my baby's gone away

Well baby please don't leave me
Baby please don't go
Awh!Honey child don't leave me now
Baby please, baby please

Funeral Tango
((Adapted from: Tango Funèbre (by Jacques Brel) - 1964))
((Finnish Version: Hautajaistango (by Markku Riikonen) - 1984))
Composer(s): Gérard Jouannest - Jacques Brel - Eric Blau - Mort Shuman
Performer(s): Mort Shuman - 1968



Oh I can see them now
Clutching a handkerchief
And blowing me a kiss
Discreetly asking how
How came he died so young
Or was he very old
Is the body still warm
Or is it already cold
All doors are open wide
They grope around inside
At my desk my drawers my trunk
There's nothing left to hide
Some love letters are there
And an old photograph
They've laid my poor soul bare
And now all they do is laugh

Oh I can see them all
So formal and so stiff
Like a seargant at arms
At a policeman's ball
And everybody's pushing
To be the first in line
Their hearts upon their sleeves
Like a ten cent valentine
The old women are there
Too old to give a damn
They've brought along the kids
Who don't know who I am
They're thinking about the price of my funeral bouquet
What they're thinking isn't nice
For now they'll have to pay

Oh I see all of you
All of my phoney friends
Who can't wait for it ends
Who can't wait till it's through
Oh I see all of you
You've been laughing all these years
Now all that you have left
Are a few crocodile tears
Ah you don't even know
That you're entering your hell
As you leave my cemetary
You think you're doing well
With that one who's at your side
You're as proud as you can be
Ah she's going to make you cry
But not the way you cried for me

Oh I can see me now
So cold and so alone
As the flowers slowly die
In my field of little bones
Oh I can see me now
I can see me at the end
Of this voyage that I/m on
Without a love without a friend
Now all this that I see
Is not what I deserve
They really have a nerve
To say these things to me
No girls just bread and water
And your money you must save
For there'll be nothing left for us
When you're dead and in your grave

Blue Eyes Crying In The Rain
Composer(s): Fred Rose
Performer(s): Willie Nelson
and various other artists



In the twilight glow I see her
Blue eyes crying in the rain
When we kissed goodbye and parted
I knew we'd never meet again

Love is like a dying ember
Only memories remain
Through the ages I remember
Blue eyes crying in the rain

Someday when we meet up yonder
We'll stroll hand in hand again
In a land that knows no parting
Blue eyes crying in the rain

Blue eyes crying in the rain
Blue eyes crying in the rain
Blue eyes crying in the rain

I thought that you'd be loving me
I thought you were the one who'd stay forever
But now forever's come and gone
And I'm still here alone

'cause you were only playing
You were only playing with my heart
I was never waiting
I was never waiting for the tears to start

It was you who put the clouds around me
It was you who made the tears fall down
It was you who broke my heart in pieces
It was you, it was you who made my blue eyes blue
Oh, I never should have trusted you

I thought that I'd be all you need
In your eyes I thought I saw my heaven
And now my heaven's gone away
And I'm out in the cold

'cause you had me believing
You had me believing in a lie
Guess I couldn't see it
I guess I couldn't see it till I saw goodbye

Chorus

'cause you were only playing
You were only playing with my heart
I was never waiting
I was never waiting for the tears to start

It was you who put the clouds around me
It was you

Chorus

Oh, I never should have trusted you
Oh, I never should have trusted you
Oh, I never should have trusted you
