Once you said you loved me Placed no one above me Prayed for me to make that vow What dumb thing did I say So busy being blasé How I wish you'd ask me now...

Blues have overtaken me, I'm so weary, days are full of gloom, Homesickness has got me down in mind. Way down in old Arkansas, In old Dixie, my log cabin home...

Life is not a highway strewn with flowers Still it holds a goodly share of bliss When the sun gives way to April showers Here is the point you should never miss...

I never knew the charm of spring Never met it face to face I never new my heart could sing Never missed a warm embrace...

Times have changed And we've often rewound the clock Since the Puritans got a shock When they landed on Plymouth Rock If today...

Maxwellton braes are bonnie Where early fa's the dew And 'twas there that Annie Laurie Gave me her promise true Gave me her promise true Which ne'er forgot will be And for bonnie Annie Laurie...

Mandolins, violins, Hear the darkies tunin' up, the fun begins, Come this way, don't delay, Better hurry, honey dear, or you'll be missin' Music sweet, rag-time treat...

Try to think that love's not around But it's uncomfortably near My old heart ain't gaining no ground Because my angel eyes ain't here...

True love never does run smooth At least that's what I'm told If that is true then our love Surely must be good as gold How we battle ev'ry day And when I want a kiss I have to start explaining...

We meet and the angels sing The angels sing the sweetest song I ever heard We speak and the angels sing Or am I reading music into every word...

Stand Navy down the field, sails set to the sky. We'll never change our course, so Army you steer shy-y-y-y. Roll up the score, Navy, Anchors Aweigh. Sail Navy down the field and sink the Army, sink the Army Grey...

There's nothing left for me of days that used to be There's just a memory among my souvenirs Some letters tied in blue, a photograph or two I see a rose from you among my souvenirs...

I'm just a woman, a lonely woman Waitin' on a weary shore I'm just a woman that's only human One you should be sorry for...

Amapola My pretty little poppy You're like that lovely flower, so sweet and heavenly Since I found you My heart is wrapped around you...

Everything went wrong, And the whole day long I'd feel so blue. For the longest while I'd forget to smile, Then I met you...

Well alright, okay, you win. I'm in love with you. Well alright, okay, you win. Baby, what can I do? I'll do anything you say. It's just got to be that way...

Alone together, beyond the crowd Above the world, we're not too proud To cling together, we're strong As long as we're together...

Alone, alone with a sky of romance above Alone, alone on a night that was meant for love There must be someone waiting Who feels the way I do...

What a day this has been What a rare mood I'm in Why it's almost like being in love There's a smile on my face For the whole human race Why it's almost like being in love...

The day is my enemy, the night my friend, For I'm always so alone Till the day draws to an end. But when the sun goes down And the moon comes through, To the monotone of the evening's drone...

Again, this couldn't happen again This is that once in a lifetime This is the thrill divine What's more, this never happened before Though I have prayed for a lifetime That such as you would suddenly be mine...

Ain't cha glad we were made for each other ain't cha glad that we waited for each other we agree constantly life is just a sympathy in perfect harmony...

There she is! There she is! There's what keeps me up at night Oh, gee whiz! Oh, gee whiz! There's why I can't eat a bite Those flaming eyes! That flaming youth! Oh, mister oh, sister, tell me the truth...
