Lyrics (from Musixmatch)

Ruby Tuesday

She would never say where she came from

Yesterday don’t matter if it’s gone

While the sun is bright
Or in the darkest night
No one knows
She comes and goes

Goodbye, Ruby Tuesday
Who could hang a name on you?
When you change with every new day
Still, I’m gonna miss you

Don’t question why she needs to be so free
She’ll tell you it’s the only way to be

She just can’t be chained
To a life where nothing’s gained
And nothing’s lost
At such a cost

Goodbye, Ruby Tuesday
Who could hang a name on you?
When you change with every new day
Still, I’m gonna miss you

There’s no time to lose, I heard her say

Catch your dreams before they slip away

Dying all the time
Lose your dreams
And you will lose your mind
Ain’t life unkind?

Goodbye, Ruby Tuesday
Who could hang a name on you?
When you change with every new day
Still, I’m gonna miss you

Goodbye, Ruby Tuesday
Who could hang a name on you?
When you change with every new day
Still, I’m gonna miss you

LYRICS

Leaning On a Lamp Post

George Formby

(Composed by George Gay)

I’m leaning on a lamp, maybe you think, I look a tramp,
Or you may think I’m hanging ’round to steal a motor-car.
But no I’m not a crook, And if you think, that’s what I look,
I’ll tell you why I’m here, And what my motives are.

(Tempo Change)

I’m leaning on a lamp-post at the corner of the street,
In case a certain little lady comes by.
Oh me, oh my, I hope the little lady comes by.
I don’t know if she’ll get away, She doesn’t always get away,
But anyhow I know that she’ll try.
Oh me, oh my, I hope the little lady comes by,
There’s no other girl I would wait for, But this one I’d break any date
For,
I won’t have to ask what she’s late for, She wouldn’t have to leave me
Flat,
She’s not a girl like that.
Oh, she’s absolutely wonderful, and marvellous and beautiful.
And anyone can understand why,
I’m leaning on a lamp-post at the corner of the street
In case a certain little lady passes by.

(Tempo change)

I’m leaning on a lamp-post at the corner of the street,
In case a certain little lady comes by.
Oh me, oh my, I hope the little lady goes do do do dah dah dee dee dee…
I don’t know if she’ll get away, She doesn’t always get away,
But anyhow I know that she’ll try.
Oh me, oh my, I hope the little lady comes by,
There’s no other girl I would wait for, But this one I’d break any date
For,
I won’t have to ask what she’s late for, She wouldn’t have to leave me
Flat,
She’s not a girl like that.
Oh, she’s absolutely wonderful, and marvellous and beautiful.
And anyone can understand why,
I’m leaning on a lamp-post at the corner of the street
In case a certain little lady passes by.

Words for today; Who cares what picture you see?

More to come; same blog time, same blog channel

Lyrics

Well, Saturday night at 8 o’clock
I know where I’m gonna go
I’m a-gonna pick my baby up
And take her to the picture show

Everybody in the neighborhood
Is dressin’ up to be there, too
And we’re gonna have a ball
Just like we always do

Saturday night at the movies
Who cares what picture you see
When you’re huggin’ with your baby
In the last row of the balcony?

Well, there’s Technicolor and Cinemascope
A cast out of Hollywood
And the popcorn from the candy stand
Makes it all seem twice as good

There’s alway lots of pretty girls
With figures they don’t try to hide
But they never can compare
To the girl sittin’ by my side

Saturday night at the movies
Who cares what picture you see
When you’re huggin’ with your baby
In the last row of the balcony?

Oh, Saturday night at the movies
Who cares what picture you see
When you’re huggin’ with your baby
In the last row of the balcony?

Whoa-oh, Saturday night at the movies
Who cares what picture you see
When you’re huggin’ with your baby
In the last row of the balcony?

Well, Saturday night at the movies
Who cares what picture you see
When you’re huggin’ with your baby…

You drive me crazy – Shakin’ Stevens 1981

The 80’s. Substitute the colour of the eyes when needed.🙃

Words for today; And when I’m looking in those big blue eyes

More to come; same blog time, same blog channel

You know, baby when you’re in my arms
I can feel your loving magic charms
You drive me crazy
You drive me crazy

And when I’m looking in those big blue eyes
I start a-floating ’round in paradise
You drive me crazy
You drive me crazy

Heaven must have sent you down
Down for you to give me a thrill
Every time you touch me
Every time you hold me
My heart starts speeding like a train on a track

I love you baby and it’s plain to see
I love you honey
It was meant to be
You drive me crazy
You drive me crazy, oh

Heaven must have sent you down
Down for you to give me a thrill
Every time you touch me
Every time you hold me
My heart starts speeding
Like a train on a track

I love you baby and it’s plain to see
I love you honey
It was meant to be
You drive me crazy
You drive me crazy

And when I’m looking in those big blue eyes
I start a-floating ’round in paradise
You drive me crazy
You drive me crazy
Oh, crazy
You drive me crazy

Oh, crazy
You drive me crazy
Woo, crazy
You drive me crazy
Oh, crazy
Hmm, crazy
