He Aint Got Rhythm

Irving berlin
cause he aint got rhythm
Every night he sits in the house alone
He aint got rhythm
Every night he s@ts there are wears a frown
He attracted some attention
When he found the fourth dimension
But he aint got rhythm
So no ones with him
The loneliest man in town
Oh! lonely man is he
Bending over his books
His wife and family
Keep giving him dirty looks
cause he aint got rhythm
When they call him up
Its to call him down
With that daring aviator
He encircled the equator
But he aint got rhythm

Billies Blues

Billie holiday
Lord I love my man, tell the world I do
I love my man, tell the world I do
But when he mistreats me
Makes me feel so blue
My man wouldnt give me no breakfast
Wouldnt give me no dinner
Fought about my supper and put me outdoors
Had the dark clay make black spots on my clothes
I didnt have so many
But I had a long, long way to go
Some men like me talkin happy
Some calls it snappy
Some call me honey
Others think I got money
Some tell me baby youre built for speed
Now if you put that all together
Makes me everthing a good man needs

Darn That Dream

Jimmy van heusen / edgar de lange
Darn that dream
I dream each night
You say you love me and hold me tight
But when I awake and youre out of sight
Oh, darn that dream
Darn your lips and darn your eyes
They lift me high above the moonlit sky
Then I tumble out of paradise
Oh, darn that dream
Darn that one track mind of mine
It cant understand that you dont care
Just to change the mood Im in
Id welcome a nice old nightmare
Darn that dream
And bless it too
Without that dream I never have you
But it haunts me and it wont come true
Oh, darn that dream

Billie Holiday
Lord I love my man, tell the world I do
I love my man, tell the world I do
But when he mistreats me
Makes me feel so blue
My man wouldn't give me no breakfast
Wouldn't give me no dinner
Fought about my supper and put me outdoors
Had the dark clay make black spots on my clothes
I didn't have so many
But I had a long, long way to go
Some men like me talkin' happy
Some calls it snappy
Some call me honey
Others think I got money
Some tell me baby you're built for speed
Now if you put that all together

Lady Sings The Blues

Billie holiday / herbie nichols
Lady sings the blues
Shes got them bad
She feels so sad
Wants the world to know
Just what the blues is all about
Lady sings the blues
She tells her side
Nothing to hide
Now the world will now
Just what the blues is all about
The blues aint nothing but a pain in your heart
When you get a bad start
When you and your man have to part
I aint gonna just sit around and cry
And now I wont die
Because I love him
Lady sings the blues
Shes got em bad
She feels so sad

Day In, Day Out

Johnny mercer / rube bloom
Day in - day out
That same old voodoo follows me about
That same old pounding in my heart, whenever I think of you
And baby I think of you
Day in and day out
Day out - day in
I neednt tell you how my days begin
When I awake I get up with a tingle
One possibility in view
That possibility of maybe seeing you
Come rain - come shine
I meet you and to me the day is fine
Then I kiss your lips, and the pounding becomes
An oceans roar, a thousand drums
Cant you see its love, can there be any doubt
When there it is, day in - day out

Lets Call A Heart A Heart

Arthur johnston / sonny burke
When were in a friendly situation
My conversation may not be smart
But if were to have a perfect understanding
Lets call a heart a heart
There are words that should be whispered gent@y
Thats evidently the way to start
If I tell you what my dreams have been demanding
Lets call a heart a heart
Can I prove how I yearn
Just by the turn of a phrase
Can I keep my control
When all my soul is aflame
Maybe wed call a true confession
And in discretion on someones part
But if Im to say how madly I adore you
Lets call a heart a heart

These n That n Those

Milton pascal / edgar fairchild
These are nights below
And thats the moon above
And those are eyes that say youre mine
Why cant we combine thesen thatn those
These are moments rare
And thats the comfy chair
And those are lips that should be kissed
How can we resist thesen thatn those
Holding conversation is no recreation
And we have so much more to do
Id be disrespectful
If I were neglectful
Of all that nature gave to you
These two hearts are bold
And thats a hand to hold
And those two arms have room to spare
Where we both can share thesen thatn those

Crazy He Calls Me

Carl sigman / bob russell
I say Ill move the mountains
And Ill move the mountains
If he wants them out of the way
Crazy he calls me
Sure, Im crazy
Crazy in love, I say
I say Ill go through fire
And Ill go through fire
As he wants it, so it will be
Crazy he calls me
Sure, Im crazy
Crazy in love, you see
Like the wind that shakes the bough
He moves me with a smile
The difficult Ill do right now
The impossible will take a little while
I say Ill care forever
And I mean forever
If I have to hold up the sky

Stormy Weather

Ted koehler / harold arlen
Dont know why theres no sun up in the sky
Stormy weather
Since my man and I aint together,
Keeps rainin all the time
Life is bare, gloom and misry everywhere
Stormy weather
Just cant get my poorself together,
Im weary all the time
So weary all the time
When he went away the blues walked in and met me.
If he stays away old rockin chair will get me.
All I do is pray the lord above will let me walk in the sun once more.
Cant go on, evry thing I had is gone
Stormy weather
Since my man and I aint together,
Keeps rainin all the time
