You don't know me - Elvis Presley (1967) (with lyrics)

From the movie "Clambake", 1967.



(Lyrics)

You give your hand to me and then you say hello
And I can hardly speak, my heart is beating so
And anyone could tell, you think you know me well
But you don't know me

No you don't know the one who dreams of you at night
And longs to kiss your lips and longs to hold you tight
To you, I'm just a friend, and that's all I've ever been
No, you don't know me

For I never knew the art of making love
Though my heart aches with love for you
Afraid and shy, I let my chance go by
The chance that you might love me too

You give your hand to me and then you say good-bye
I watch you walk away beside the lucky guy
To never, never know the one who loves you so
No, you don't know me

One night - Elvis Presley (1959) (with lyrics)



(Lyrics)

One night with you
Is what I'm now praying for
The things that we two could plan
Would make my dreams come true

Just call my name
And I'll be right by your side
I want your sweet helping hand
My loves too strong to hide

Always lived, very quiet life
I ain't never did no wrong
Now I know that life without you
Has been too lonely, too long

One night with you
Is what I'm now praying for
The things that we two could plan
Would make my dreams come true

Always lived, very quiet life
I ain't never did no wrong
Now I know that life without you
Has been too lonely, too long

One night with you
Is what I'm now praying for
The things that we two could plan
Would make my dreams come true

Party - Elvis Presley (1957) (with lyrics)



(Lyrics)

Some people like to rock
Some people like to roll
But movin' and a groovin'
Gonna satisfy my soul

Let's have a party (Let's have a party)
Oooh, let's have a party (Let's have a party)
Send 'im to the store
An' let's buy some more
An' let's have a party tonight

I've never kissed a bear
I've never kissed a goon
But I can shake a chicken
In the middle of the room

Let's have a party (Let's have a party)
Oooh, let's have a party (Let's have a party)
Send 'im to the store
An' let's buy some more
An' let's have a party tonight

Now Honky Tonky Joe
Is knockin' at the door
Bring him in and fill him up
And sit him on the floor

Let's have a party (Let's have a party)
Oooh, let's have a party (Let's have a party)
Send 'im to the store
An' let's buy some more
An' let's have a party tonight

The meat is on the stove
The bread is gettin' hot
Everybody come and taste
The possum Poppa shot

Let's have a party (Let's have a party)
Let's have a party (Let's have a party)
Send `im to the store
An' let's buy some more
An' let's have a party tonight

We're really gonna have a party tonight

All shook up - Elvis Presley (1957) (with lyrics)

Recorded on January 12, 1957, at Radio Recorders.





(Lyrics)

A-well I bless my soul
A-what's wrong with me?
I'm itching like a man on a fuzzy tree
My friends say I'm actin' wild as a bug
I'm in love
I'm all shook up
Mm mm, mm mm, yeah, yeah, yeah!

Well, my hands are shaky and my knees are weak
I can't seem to stand on my own two feet
Who do you thank when you have such luck?
I'm in love
I'm all shook up
Mm mm, mm mm, yeah, yeah, yeah!

Well, please, don't ask me what's on my mind
I'm a little mixed up, but I'm feelin' fine
When I'm near that girl that I love best
My heart beats so it scares me to death!

Well, she touched my hand what a chill I got
Her lips are like a vulcano that's hot
I'm proud to say that she's my buttercup
I'm in love
I'm all shook up
Mm mm, mm mm, yeah, yeah, yeah!

My tongue gets tied when I try to speak
My insides shake like a leaf on a tree
There's only one cure for this body of mine
That's to have that girl that I love so fine!


She touched my hand what a chill I got
Her lips are like a vulcano that's hot
I'm proud to say that she's my buttercup
I'm in love
I'm all shook up
Mm mm, mm mm, yeah, yeah, yeah!
Mm mm, mm mm, yeah, yeah!
I'm all shook up

Blue suede shoes- Elvis Presley (1956) (with lyrics)

Well, it's one for the money, two for the show
Three to get ready, now go, cat, go
But don't you step on my blue suede shoes
Well, you can do anything, but lay off
Of my blue suede shoes

But oh oh , honey, lay off of my shoes
And don't you step on my blue suede shoes?
Well you can do anything but lay off
Of my blue suede shoes

Well, you can burn my house, steal my car
Drink my liquor from an old fruit jar
Or do anything that you wanna  do,
But oh,oh, honey, lay off of my shoes

Well, you can do anything, but lay off
Of my blue suede shoes

Blue, blue, blue suede shoes, yeah

You ain't nothin' but a hound dog
To cry all the time
You ain't nothin' but a hound dog
To cry all the time
Well, you ain't never caught a rabbit

Crying all the time

Well, you ain't never caught a rabbit
And you ain't no friend of mine

You ain't no friend of mine

You ain't nothin' but a hound dog
Cryin' all the time
You ain't nothin' but a hound dog
Cryin' all the time

Well, you ain't never caught a rabbit
You ain't no friend of mine

Surrender - Elvis Presley (1961) (with lyrics)



(Lyrics)

When we kiss my heart's on fire
Burning with a strange desire
And I know, each time I kiss you
That your heart's on fire too

So, my darling, please surrender
All your love so warm and tender
Let me hold you in my arms, dear
While the moon shines bright above

All the stars will tell the story
Of our love and all its glory
Let us take this night of magic
And make it a night of love

Won't you please surrender to me
Your lips, your arms, your heart, dear
Be mine forever
Be mine tonight

That's all right - Elvis Presley (1954) (with lyrics)

That's all right for you
That's all right mama, just anyway you do
Well, that's all right, that's all right.
That's all right now mama, anyway you do

Mama she done told me,
Papa done told me too
'Son, that gal your foolin' with,
She ain't no good for you'
But, that's all right, that's all right.
That's all right now mama, anyway you do

(Instrumental)

I'm leaving town, baby

Well, then you won't be bothered with

Well, that's all right, that's all right.

I tell dee dee dee,
Dee, dee, dee
Dee, dee, dee
I need your lovin'
That's all right
That's all right now mama, anyway you do

Money honey - Elvis Presley (1956) (with lyrics)




(Lyrics)


You know the landlord rang my front door bell
I let it ring for a long, long spell
I went to the window
I peeped through the blind
And asked him to tell me what's on his mind
He said

Money, honey
Money, honey
Money, honey,
If you want to get along with me

Well, I screamed and I hollered
I was so hard-pressed
I called the woman that I loved the best
I finally got my baby about half past three
She said I'd like to know what you want with me
I said

Money, honey
Money, honey
Money, honey
If you want to get along with me

(Instrumental)

Well, I said tell me baby, what's wrong with you?
From this day on our romance is through
I said, tell me baby, face to face
How could another man take my place?
She said

Money, honey
Money, honey
Money, honey
If you want to get a long with me

Well, I've learned my lesson and now I know
The sun may shine and the winds may blow
The women may come and the women may go
But before I say I love you so
I want

Money, honey
Money, honey
Money, honey
If you want to get along with me

Wooden heart - Elvis Presley (1960) (with lyrics)

From the movie "G. I. Blues", 1960



(Lyrics)

Can't you see
I love you
Please don't break my heart in two
That's not hard to do
'Cause I don't have a wooden heart
And if you say goodbye
Then I know that I would cry
Maybe I would die
'Cause I don't have a wooden heart


There's no strings upon this love of mine
It was always you from the start
Treat me nice
Treat me good
Treat me like you really should
'Cause I'm not made of wood
And I don't have a wooden heart

Muss i denn, muss i denn
Zum Stadtele hinaus
Stadtele hinaus
Und du, mein Schatz, bleibst hier?

There's no strings upon this love of mine
It was always you from the start
Sei mir gut
Sei mir gut
Sei mir wie du wirklich sollst
Wie du wirklich sollst
'Cause I don't have a wooden heart

Got a lot o' livin' to do - Elvis Presley (1957) (with lyrics)



(Lyrics)

Oh, yes I've got a lot o' living to do
A whole lot o' loving to do
Come on baby, to make a party takes two
Oh, yes I've got a lot o' living to do
A whole lot o' loving to do
And there's no one who I'd rather do it with-a than you

There's a moon that's big and bright in the milky way tonight
But the way you act, you never would know it's there
So baby, time's a wasting
A lot of kisses I ain't been tasting
I don't know about you, but I'm gonna get my share

Uhnnn got a lot o' living to do
A whole lot o' loving to do
Come on baby, to make a party takes two
Oh, yes I've got a lot o' living to do
A whole lot o' loving to do
And there's no one who I'd rather do it with-a than you

There's a balmy little breeze
That's whistling through the trees
And it's telling you to pitch a little woo with me
Why don't you take a listen
You'll never know what you've been missing
Cuddle up a little closer and be my little honey bee

Uhnnnn, got a lot o' living to do
A whole lot o' loving to do
Come on baby, to make a party takes two
Oh, yes I've got a lot o' living to do
A whole lot o' loving to do
And there's no one who I'd rather do it with-a than you

You're the prettiest thing I've seen
But you treat me so doggone mean
Ain't you got no heart, I'm dying to hold you near
Why do you keep me waiting
Why don't you start co-operating
And the things I say are things you want to hear

Uhnnn, got a lot o' living to do
A whole lot o' loving to do
Come on baby, to make a party takes two
Oh, yes I've got a lot o' living to do
A whole lot o' loving to do
And there's no one who I'd rather do it with-a than you

And there's no one who I'd rather do it with-a than you 

Got a lot o' lovin' to do - Elvis Presley (1957) (with lyrics)

From the movie "Loving you", 1957

Oh yes I've got a lot o' living to do

A whole lot o' loving to do
And there's no one who I'd rather do it with-a than you


Oh yes I've got a lot o' living to do
A whole lot o' loving to do
Come on baby, to make a party takes two
Oh yes I've got a lot o' living to do
A whole lot o' loving to do
And there's no one who I'd rather do it with-a than you 

There's a moon that's big and bright in the milky way tonight

(Marie's the name) His latest flame - Elvis Presley (1961) (with lyrics)



(Lyrics)

A very old friend came by today
'Cause he was telling everyone in town
About the love that he just found
And Marie's the name of his latest flame

He talked and talked and I heard him say
That she had the longest blackest hair
The prettiest green eyes anywhere
And Marie's the name of his latest flame

Though I smiled the tears inside were a-burning
I wished him luck and then he said goodbye
He was gone but still his words kept returning
What else was there for me to do, but cry

Would you believe that yesterday
This girl was in my arms and swore to me
She'd be mine eternally
And Marie's the name of his latest flame

Though I smiled the tears inside were a-burning
I wished him luck and then he said goodbye
He was gone but still his words kept returning
What else was there for me to do, but cry

Would you believe that yesterday
This girl was in my arms and swore to me
She'd be mine eternally
And Marie's the name of his latest flame

And Marie's the name of his latest flame
And Marie's the name of his latest flame

Such a night - Elvis Presley (1960) (with lyrics)



(Lyrics)

It was a night oo-oo what a night
It was it really was such a night
The moon was bright oh how bright
It was it really was such a night
The night was alight with stars above
Oo-oo when she kissed me
I had to fall in love

Ohhh it was a kiss oo-oo what a kiss
It was it really was such a kiss
Oh, how she could kiss oh what a kiss
It was it really was such a kiss
Just the thought of her lips
Sets me a fire
I reminisce and I'm filled with desire

But I'd gave my heart to her in sweet surrender
How well I remember, I'll always remember

Oh, what a night oo-oo what a night
It was it really was such a night
Came the dawn and my heart and her love
And the night was gone
But I'll never forget the kiss
The kiss in the moonlight
Oo-oo such a kiss, such a night

It was a night oo-oo what a night
It was it really was such a night
Came the dawn and my heart and her love
And the night was gone
But I'll never forget the kiss
The kiss in the moonlight
How well I remember, I'll always remember

That night oo-oo what a night
It was it really was such a night
When we kissed I had to fall in love
But I'd gave my heart to her in sweet surrender
How well I remember, I'll always remember

Oh, that night oo-oo what a night
It was it really was such a night
When we kissed I had to fall in love
Well she's gone, gone, gone
Yes she's gone, gone, gone
Came the dawn, dawn, dawn
And my love was gone
But before that dawn
Yes before that dawn 

And before that dawn
Oo-oo, oo-oo, oo-oo,
Such a night

Don't - Elvis Presley (1957) (with lyrics)



(Lyrics)

Don't, don't, 

Don't, don't
That's what you say
Each time that I hold you this way,
When I feel like this 
And I want to kiss you,
Baby, don't say don't.

Don't, don't, 
Don't, don't 
Leave my embrace
For here in my arms is your place
When the night grows cold 
And I want to hold you,
Baby, don't say don't.

If you think that this is just a game
I'm playing
If you think that I don't mean
Ev'ry word I'm saying
Don't, don't, 
Don't, don't,
Don't feel that way
I'm your love and yours I will stay

This you can believe
I will never leave you
Heaven knows I won't
Baby, don't say don't

She's not you - Elvis Presley (1962) (with lyrics)



(Lyrics)

Her hair is soft and her eyes are oh, so blue
She's all the things a girl should be,
But she's not you.

She knows just how to make me laugh
When I feel blue
She's everything a man could want,
But she's not you.

And when we're dancing
It almost feels the same
I've got to stop myself from
Whisp'ring your name

She even kisses me like
You used to do.
And it's just breaking my heart
'Cause she's not you.
And it's just breaking my heart
'Cause she's not you.

And when we're dancing
It almost feels the same
I've got to stop myself from
Whisp'ring your name

She even kisses me like
You used to do.
And it's just breaking my heart
'Cause she's not you.
And it's just breaking my heart
'Cause she's not you.

It's now or never - Elvis Presley (1960) (with lyrics)






(Lyrics)

It's now or never,
Come hold me tight
Kiss me my darling,
Be mine tonight
Tomorrow will be too late,
It's now or never
My love won't wait.

When I first saw you
With your smile so tender
My heart was captured,
My soul surrendered
I'd spend a lifetime
Waiting for the right time
Now that your near
The time is here at last.

It's now or never,
Come hold me tight
Kiss me my darling,
Be mine tonight
Tomorrow will be too late,
It's now or never
My love won't wait.

Just like a willow,
We would cry an ocean
If we lost true love
And sweet devotion
Your lips excite me,
Let your arms invite me
For who knows when
We'll meet again this way

It's now or never,
Come hold me tight
Kiss me my darling,
Be mine tonight
Tomorrow will be too late,

It's now or never
My love won't wait.

It's now or never
My love won't wait.

Good luck charm - Elvis Presley (1961) (with lyrics)



(Lyrics)

Uh-huh huhUh-huh huh... 
Don't want a four leaf clover
Don't want an old horse shoe
Want your kiss 'cause I just can't miss
With a good luck charm like you

Come on and be my little good luck charm
Uh-huh huh, you sweet delight
I want a good luck charm
a-hanging on my arm
To have, to have, to hold, to hold tonight

Don't want a silver dollar
Rabbit's foot on a string
The happiness in your warm caress
No rabbit's foot can bring

Come on and be my little good luck charm
Uh-huh huh, you sweet delight
I want a good luck charm
a-hanging on my arm
To have, to have, to hold, to hold tonight

If I found a lucky penny
I'd toss it across the bay
Your love is worth all the gold on earth
No wonder that I say

Come on and be my little good luck charm
Uh-huh huh, you sweet delight
I want a good luck charm
a-hanging on my arm
To have, to have, to hold, to hold tonight

Uh-huh huh, Uh-huh huh...

Baby let me be,
Your lovin' Teddy Bear
Put a chain around my neck,
And lead me anywhere
Oh, let me be (oh, let him be)

I don't wanna be your tiger
Cause tigers play too rough
I don't wanna be your lion
'Cause lions ain't the kind
You love enough.
I Just wanna be, your Teddy Bear
Put a chain around my neck
And lead me anywhere
Oh, let me be, (oh, let him be)

Baby let me be, around you every night
Run your fingers through my hair,
And cuddle me real tight
Oh, let me be, (oh, let him be)
Your teddy bear.

I don't wanna be your tiger
Cause tigers play too rough
I don't wanna be your lion
'Cause lions ain't the kind
You love enough.

Put a chain around my neck
And lead me anywhere
Oh, let me be, (oh, let him be)
Your teddy bear.

Oh, let me be, (oh, let him be)
Your teddy bear.
I just wanna be your teddy bear.

From the movie "Tickle me", 1965



(Lyrics)

Slowly, but surely, I'm gonna wear you down
Slowly, but surely, I'm gonna bring you round
To my way of thinking, my way of kissing, my way of lovin'
Slowly, but surely, I'm gonna make you mine

I ain't gonna rush ya', I'll let you meditate
Though I wanna crush ya', my arms will have to wait
I'll just take it easy, so nice and easy, real cool really
Slowly, but surely, I'm gonna make you mine

Oh, yeah! Mm-mm, I've got a feelin', I'm not wasting my time
Oh, yeah! When you get the message, it's going to be fine

Slowly, but surely, the table's gonna turn
Slowly, but surely, your lips are gonna burn
For what you've been missin' is my kind of kissin', my kind of lovin'
Slowly, but surely, I'm gonna make you mine
I'm gonna make you mine

From the movie "Tickle me", 1965



(Lyrics)

I've got a dirty, dirty feelin'
Dirty feelin's goin' on
You know I almost hit the ceilin'
When I woke up and you were gone

I took you in when you were hungry
And now your cuttin' out on me
I'm gonna help you little darlin'
That ain't the way it's gonna be

I hear you're pretty good at runnin'
But pretty soon you'll slip and fall
That's when I'll drag you home with me girl
I'm gonna chain you to the wall

You know I'm lookin' for you baby
I ain't gonna take it layin' down
I heard that you were cookin' baby
Way on the other side of town

I've got a dirty, dirty feelin'
Dirty feelin's goin' on
You know I almost hit the ceilin'
When I woke up and you were gone

Dixieland rock - Elvis Presley (1958) (with lyrics)

From the movie "King Creole", 1958



(Lyrics)

Well down in New Orleans at the Golden Goose
I grabbed a green eyed dolly that was on the loose
Well I dig that music, well she said me too
I said pretty baby come on and let's do

The Dixieland Rock
Well the Dixieland Rock
Let your hair down sugar, shake it free
And do the Dixieland rock with me

With the blue light shining on her swinging hips
She got the drummer so nervous that he lost his sticks
The cornet player hit a note that's flat
The tromboner hit him while the poor cat sat

The Dixieland rock
Well the Dixieland rock
Let your hair down sugar, shake it free
And do the Dixieland rock with me

I was all pooped out and when the clock struck four
But she said no daddy can't leave the floor
She wore a clinging dress that fit so tight
She couldn't sit down so we danced all night

The Dixieland rock
Well the Dixieland rock
Let your hair down sugar, shake it free
And do the Dixieland rock with me
Let your hair dance sugar, shake it
And do the Dixieland rock with me

Crawfish - Elvis Presley (1958) (with lyrics)

From the movie "King Creole", 1958



(Lyrics)

Crawfish
Well I went to the bayou just last night
There was no moon but the stars were bright
Put a big long hook on a big long pole
And I pulled Mr. Crawfish out of his hole
Crawfish

See I got him, see the size
Stripped and cleaned before your eyes
Sweet meat look, fresh and ready to cook
Crawfish

Now take Mr. Crawfish in your hand
He's gonna look good in your frying pan
If you fry him crisp or you boil him right
He'll be sweeter than sugar when you take a bite
Crawfish

See I got him, see the size
Stripped and cleaned before your eyes
Sweet meat look, fresh and ready to cook
Crawfish

No more - Elvis Presley (1961) (with lyrics)



(Lyrics)

No more, do I see the starlight caress your hair

No more, feel the tender kisses we used to share
I close my eyes and clearly my heart remembers
A thousand good-byes could never put out the embers

Darling, I love you so and my heart forever
Will belong to the memory of the love that we knew before
Please, come back to my arms, we belong together
Come to me, let's be sweethearts again and then let us part no more.

No more, do I feel the touch of your hand on mine
No more, see the lovelight making your dark eyes shine
Oh, how I wish I never had caused you sorrow
But don't ever say for us there is no tomorrow

Darling, I love you so and my heart forever
Will belong to the memory of the love that we knew before
Please, come back to my arms, we belong together
Come to me, let's be sweethearts again and then let us part no more.

No more - Elvis Presley (1961) (with lyrics)

From the movie "Blue Hawaii", November 1961.



(Lyrics)

No more, do I see the starlight caress your hair
No more, feel the tender kisses we used to share
I close my eyes and clearly my heart remembers
A thousand good-byes could never put out the embers

Darling I love you so and my heart forever
Will belong to the memory of the love that we knew before
Please come back to my arms, we belong together
Come to me, let's be sweethearts again and then let us part no more.

Darling I love you so and my heart forever
Will belong to the memory of the love that we knew before
Please come back to my arms, we belong together
Come to me, let's be sweethearts again and then let us part no more.

Return to sender - Elvis Presley (1962) (subtitled)

From the movie "Girls, girls, girls", 1962



(Lyrics)

Return to sender
Return to sender

I gave a letter to the postman,
He put it in his sack.
Bright and early next morning,
He brought my letter back.

She wrote upon it:
Return to sender, address unknown.
No such number, no such zone.
We had a quarrel, a lover's spat
I write I'm sorry but my letter keeps coming back.

So then I dropped it in the mailbox
And sent it special D.
Bright and early next morning
It came right back to me.

She wrote upon it:
Return to sender, address unknown.
No such person, no such zone.

This time I'm gonna take it myself
And put it right in her hand.
And if it comes back the very next day
Then I'll understand

The writing on itReturn to sender, address unknown.

No such number, no such zone.

Return to sender.
Return to sender.
Return to sender.
Return to sender.

Jailhouse rock - Elvis Presley (1957) with lyrics

From the movie "Jailhouse rock", 1957.



(Lyrics)

The warden threw a party in the county jail
The prison band was there and they began to wail
The band was jumpin' and the joint began to swing
You should've heard those knocked out jailbirds sing

Let's rock, everybody, let's rock
Everybody in the whole cell block
Was dancin' to the Jailhouse Rock

Spider Murphy played the tenor saxophone
Little Joe was blowin' on the slide trombone
The drummer boy from Illinois went crash, boom, bang
The whole rhythm section was the Purple Gang

Let's rock, everybody, let's rock
Everybody in the whole cell block
Was dancin' to the Jailhouse Rock

Number forty-seven said to number three
You're the cutest jailbird I ever did see
I sure would be delighted with your company
Come on and do the Jailhouse Rock with me

Let's rock, everybody, let's rock
Everybody in the whole cell block
Was dancin' to the Jailhouse Rock

The sad sack was a sittin' on a block of stone
Way over in the corner weepin' all alone
The warden said, hey, buddy, don't you be no square
If you can't find a partner use a wooden chair

Let's rock, everybody, let's rock
Everybody in the whole cell block
Was dancin' to the Jailhouse Rock

Shifty Henry said to Bugsy, for Heaven's sake
No one's lookin', now's our chance to make a break
Bugsy turned to Shifty and he said, Nix, nix
I wanna stick around a while and get my kicks

Let's rock, everybody, let's rock
Everybody in the whole cell block
Was dancin' to the Jailhouse Rock

Dancin' to the Jailhouse Rock
Dancin' to the Jailhouse Rock
Dancin' to the Jailhouse Rock

Dancin' to the Jailhouse Rock 

Too much - Elvis Presley (1957 live) (with lyrics)



(Lyrics)

Well, honey, I love you
Too much
I need your loving
Too much

I want the thrill of
Your touch
Gee, I can't hold you
Too much

Now you've got me living
Don't you leave me broken hearted
'Cause I love you
Too much

Every time I kiss your
Sweet lips
I can feel my heart go a
Flip-flip

I'm such a fool for
Your charms
Take me back, baby
In your arms

Now you've got me started
Don't you leave me broken hearted
Beause I love you
Too much

I need your loving
All the time
Need your hugging
Meeting mine

Need you near me
Stay real close
Please, please hear me
You're the most

Like to hear you sighing
Even though I know you're lying
'Cause I love you
Too much

(Instrumental)

Every time I kiss your
Sweet lips
I can feel my heart go
Flip-flip

I'm such a fool for
Your charms
Take me back, baby
In your arms

Now you've got me started
You even know I know you're lying
'Cause I love you
Too much

I need your loving
All the time
I need your hugging
Meeting mine

Please, please hear me
Stay real close
You know that you are
You're the most

Now you've got me started
Don't you leave me broken hearted
Because I love you
Too much

Elvis sang these songs on his first appearance of three on the "Ed Sullivan Show on September 9, 1956. Sullivan could not host the show as he was recuperating in hospital from a recent car accident. Noted british actor Charles Laughton stood in for Ed.


Don't be cruel

You know I can be found
Sitting home all alone
If you can't come around
At least please telephone

Don't be cruel to a heart that's true

Baby, if I made you mad
For something I might have said
Please, let's forget the past
The future looks bright ahead

Don't be cruel to a heart that's true

I don't want no other love
Baby it's just you I'm thinking of

Don't stop thinking of me
Don't make me feel this way
Come on over here and love me
You know what I want you to say

Don't be cruel to a heart that's true

Why should we be apart?
I really love you baby, cross my heart

Let's walk up to the preacher
And let us say I do
Then you'll know you'll have me
And I'll know that I'll have you

Don't be cruel to a heart that's true

I don't want no other love
Baby it's just you I'm thinking of

Don't be cruel to a heart that's true
Don't be cruel to a heart that's true

I don't want no other love
Baby it's just you I'm thinking of

(Lyrics)

Well it's Saturday night and I just got paid
A fool about my money, don't try to save
My heart says go, go, have a time
'Cause it's Saturday night, babe, how I'm feelin' fine
I'm gonna rock it up
I'm gonna rip it up
I'm gonna shake it up
I'm gonna break it up
I'm gonna rock it up and ball tonight
Well I got me a date and I won't be late
I picked her up in my '88
Shag on down by the social hall
When the joint starts jumpin', I'll have a ball
I'm gonna rock it up
I'm gonna rip it up
I'm gonna shake it up
I'm gonna break it up
I'm gonna rock it up and ball tonight
Along about 10 I'll be flying high
I walk on out in the open sky
But I don't care if I spend much dough
'Cause tonight I'm gonna be one happy soul
I'm gonna rock it up
I'm gonna rip it up
I'm gonna shake it up
I'm gonna break it up
I'm gonna rock it up and ball tonight
Well it's Saturday night and I just got paid
A fool about my money, don't try to save
My heart says go, go, have a time
'Cause it's Saturday night, babe, how I'm feelin' fine
I'm gonna rock it up
I'm gonna rip it up
I'm gonna shake it up
I'm gonna break it up
I'm gonna rock it up and ball tonight
Along about 10 I'll be flying high
I walk on out in the open sky
But I don't care if I spend much dough
'Cause tonight I'm gonna be one happy soul
I'm gonna rock it up
I'm gonna rip it up
I'm gonna shake it up
I'm gonna break it up
I'm gonna rock it up and ball tonight

Baby can't you see (baby can't you see)

When you hear them holler
And you ain't nowhere
Honey, you just foller

Noir c'est noir - Johnny Hallyday (with lyrics)



(Lyrics)

Noir c'est noir
Il n'y a plus d'espoir
Oui gris c'est gris
Et c'est fini, oh, oh, oh, oh
Ça me rend fou j'ai cru à ton amour
Et je perds tout
Je suis dans le noir
J'ai du mal à y croire
Au gris de l'ennui
Et je te crie, oh, oh, oh, oh
Je ferai tout pour sauver notre amour
Tout jusqu'au bout
Si un mot peut tout changer je le trouverai
Il ne faut plus en douter, il faut essayer
Noir c'est noir
Il n'est jamais trop tard
Pour moi du gris
J'n'en veux plus dans ma vie, oh, oh
Ça me rend fou de perdre ton amour
Je te l'avoue
Maintenant pour le sauver à tout je suis prét
A l'instant de la vérité pourquoi en douter
Noir c'est noir
Il me reste l'espoir
Oui gris c'est gris je n'veux plus d'ennuis, oh, oh
Ça vaut le coup de sauver notre amour
Rien que pour nous
De sauver notre amour
Rien que pour nous.
Noir c'est noir
Il me reste l'espoir
Noir c'est noir
Il me reste l'espoir
Noir c'est noir
Il me reste l'espoir

Black is black - Los Bravos (1967) (with lyrics)



(Lyrics)

Black is black
I want my baby back
It's gray, it's gray
Since she went away, Ooh-Ooh
What can I do
'Cause I-I-I-I-I'm feelin' blue
If I had my way
She'd be back today
But she don't intend
To see me again, Ooh-Ooh
What can I do
'Cause I-I-I-I-I'm feelin' blue
I can't choose
It's too much to lose
My love's too strong
Wow! Maybe if she
would come back to me
Then it can't go wrong
Bad is bad
That I feel so sad
It's time, it's time
That I found peace of mind, Ooh-Ooh
What can I do
'Cause I-I-I-I-I'm feelin' blue
I can't choose
It's too much to lose
My love's too strong
Wow! Maybe if she
Would come back to me
Then I can't go wrong
Black is black
I want my baby back
It's gray, it's gray
Since she went away, Ooh-Ooh
What can I do
'Cause I-I-I-I-I'm feelin' blue
'Cause I-I-I-I-I'm feelin' blue
