Jeepers creepers, where'd you get those peepers?
Jeepers creepers, where'd you get those eyes?
Gosh all git-up, how'd you get so lit up?
Gosh all git up, how'd it get that size?
Golly gee, when you turn those heaters on,
Woe is me, got to put my cheaters on.
Jeepers creepers, where'd you get those peepers?
Oh those weepers, how they hypnotize!
Where'd you get those eyes?

. . .


Here I go again, I hear those trumpets blow again.
All aglow again , takin' a chance on love.
Here I slide again, about to take that ride again.
Starry-eyed again, takin' a chance on love.

I thought that cards were a frame-up, I never would try.
Now I'm taking that game up and the ace of hearts is high.
Things are mending now, I see a rainbow blending now.
We'll have a happy ending now, takin' a chance on love.

Here I slip again, about to take that trip again.
I got that grip again, takin' a chance on love.
Now I prove again that I can make life move again.
Um - I'm in the groove again, takin' a chance on love.

I walk around with a horse shoe, in clover I lie.
And brother rabbit of course you better kiss your foot good-bye.
On that ball again I'm ridin' for a fall again.
I'm gonna give my all again takin' a chance on love.

When skies are cloudy and gray
They're only gray for a day
So wrap your troubles in dreams
And dream your troubles away
Until that sunshine peeps through
There's only one thing to do
Just wrap your troubles in dreams
And dream all your troubles away
Your castles may tumble thats fate after all
Life's really funny that way
No use to grumble, smile as they fall
Weren't you king for a day?
Just remember that sunshine always follows the rain
So wrap your troubles in dreams
And dream your troubles away
(instrumental)
Your castles may tumble thats fate after all
Life's really funny that way
But no need to grumble, smile as they fall
Weren't you king for a day
Just remember that sunshine always follows the rain
So wrap your troubles in dreams
And dream, dream your troubles away

My lean baby, tall and thin,
5 feet 7 of bones and skin
But when she tells me, baby, she loves me
I feel as mellow as a fellow can be.

She's so skinny, she's so drawn,
When she stands sideways you'd think she's gone
But when she calls me baby, I feel fine
To think she's frantically, romantically mine.

She's slender, but she's tender.
She makes my heart surrender.
And every night when I hold her tight,
The feelin' is nice - my arms can go around twice

My lean baby she's so slim
A broomstick's wider but not as trim
And when she starts to kiss me
Then I know I love her so, I'll never ever let her go.

No - my lean baby, strange to see
And all that nothin' it belongs to me.
And though she may be scrawny she's OK
Because I wouldn't want her any other way.

Man, she's so skinny, she's so drawn,
When she stands sideways you would think that she's gone
But when she calls me baby, I feel fine
To think she's frantically, romantically mine.

I chased her and I caught her.
Then a diamond ring I bought her.
Hey, the diamond shines, the ring is so fine,
but here is a twist - she wears it right on her wrist.

My lean baby she's so slim
A broomstick's wider but not as trim
And when she starts to kiss me
Then I know I love her so, I'll never ever let her go.

My lean baby, tall and thin

I love you. I love you.
Is all that I can say.
I love you. I love you.
The same old worlds I'm saying in the same old way.

I love you. I love you.
Three words that are divine.
And now, my dear, I'm waitin' to hear
The words that will make you mine.

Little girl, I love you.
Can't you see I love you.
I love you. Can't you see I love you.

I love you. I love you.
Three words that are divine.
And now, my dear, I'm waitin' to hear
The words that make you mine.

. . .


I'm gonna sit right down and write myself a letter
And make believe it came from you
I'm gonna write words, oh, so sweet
They're gonna knock me off my feet
A lotta kisses at the bottom
I'll be glad I got 'em

I'm gonna smile and say "I hope that you're much better"
And then I'll close the way I do
I'm gonna sit right down and write myself a letter
And make believe that it came from you

I'm gonna smile and say "I hope that you're much better"
The I'll close "with love" the way you do
I'm gonna sit right down and knock out a very large letter
And make believe it came
Although it's not the same
I'll make believe it came from you

. . .


Forget your troubles and just get happy, you better chase all your cares away.
Sing Hallelujah, come on get happy, get ready for the Judgment Day.
The sun is shining, come on get happy, the Lord is waiting to take your hand.
Shout Hallelujah, come on get happy, we're going to the promised land.
We're heading 'cross the river, wash your sins 'way in the tide.
It's so peaceful on the other side.

All of me
Why not take all of me
Can't you see
I'm no good without you
Take my lips
I wanna lose them
Take my arms
I'll never use them
Your goodbye left me with eyes that cry
How can I get on dear without you
You took the part that once was my heart
So why not take all of me

All of me
Why not take all of me
Can't you see
I'm just a mess without you
Take my lips
I wanna lose them
Why don't you take my arms
I'll never use them
Your goodbye left me with eyes that cry
How can I get along without you
You know that you took a part that used to be my heart
So why not take all of me

. . .


Baby you went and broke your faithful, promise
How could you do a thing like that, to me
Didn't I give you everything, I'd promised
How could you do a thing like that, to me
Never thought - you'd be untrue, when my back - (it) was turned on you
If someone gave me all the world (the whole wide world), to hurt you
I wouldn't do a thing like that, to you
(No ma'am - I wouldn't (couldn't) do a thing like that, to you)
(So how could you do a thing like that, to me)

. . .


I don’t why I should
Cry over you
Sigh…
Over you.
Even be blue

I should have known that you’d leave me alone
And break my heart in two
Although you have left me alone to pine
And all my love was a [big fat] waste of time
Someday your heart will be broken like mine
So why should I cry over you
(x2)

You broke my heart, you took it apart
So pack up your bags and beat it
Why should I cry over yooouuuuuu?


. . .


I'm blue every Monday
Thinkin' over Sunday
That one day when I'm with you
It seems that I sigh all day Tuesday
I cry all day Wednesday
Oh my, how I long for you

And then comes Thursday
Gee, it's long, it never gets by
And Friday makes me feel
Just like I'm gonna die

But after pay day, is my fun day
I shine all day Sunday
That one day when I'm with you

-Instrumental-

And then comes Thursday
Gee, it's long, it never goes by
And Friday makes me feel
Like I'm gonna die

But after pay day, is my fun day
I shine all day Sunday
That one day when I'm with you

That one day
It's a fun day
Sunday is my day with you

It was just one of those things
Just one of those crazy flings
One of those bells that now and then rings
It was one of those things

It was just one of those nights
Just one of those fabulous flights
A trip to the moon on gossamer wings
It was one of those things

If we'd thought a bit about the end of it
When we started jumpin' town
We'd have been aware that our love affair
Was too hot not to cool down

So good-bye, dear, good-bye and amen
Here's hopin' we'll meet now and then
It was great fun
But it was just one of those things

It was just, just, just, just
It turned out to be one of those grabbin' nights
Just one of those fabulous flights
A trip to the moon on gossamer wings

Yeah--ahh,
If we'd thought a bit 'bout the end of it
When we started to bust up the town
We'd have been aware that this love affair
Was too hot not to cool down

So good-bye, good-bye, good-bye, ta-ta, so long and you might even add "Amen"
Here's hopin' we'll do it again

It was great fun
But it was just one of those things
