Sing, Sing Together
(Folk Song)
Sing sing together, merrily merrily sing
Sing sing together, merrily merrily sing
Sing, Sing, Sing, Sing.
King of the road
By Roger Miller
Trailers for sale or rent.
Rooms to let, 50-cents.
No phone, no pool, no pets.
I ain’t got no cigarettes
Two hours of pushin’ broom.
Buys an eight by twelve four-bit room
I’m a man of means by no means.
King of the road.
Third boxcar, midnight train.
Destination Bangor, Maine
Old, worn out suit and shoes.
I don’t pay no union dues
I smoke old stogies I have found.
Short, but not too big around
I’m a man of means by no means.
King of the road
I know every engineer on every train
All of their children, and all of their names.
And every handout in every town.
Every lock that ain’t locked, when no one’s around.
Trailers for sale or rent.
Rooms to let, 50 cents
No phone, no pool, no pets.
I ain’t got no cigarettes
Two hours of pushin’ broom.
Buys an eight by twelve four-bit room
I’m a man of means by no means.
King of the road. King of the road.
Mamma Mia
By Benny Andersson and Björn Ulvaeus (ABBA)
I’ve been cheated by you, since I don’t know when
So I made up my mind, it must come to an end
Look at me now, will I ever learn?
I don’t know how, but I suddenly lose control
There’s a fire within my soul
Just one look and I can hear a bell ring
One more look and I forget everything,
Whoa – Oh – Oh
(Chorus)
Mamma mia, here I go again
My my, how can I resist you?
Mamma mia, does it show again?
My my, just how much I’ve missed you
Yes, I’ve been brokenhearted
Blue since the day we parted
Why, why did I ever let you go?
Mamma mia, now I really know,
My my, I could never let you go.
I’ve been angry and sad about the things that you do
I can’t count all the times that I’ve told you we’re through
And when you go, when you slam the door
I think you know, that you won’t be away too long
You know that I’m not that strong.
Just one look and I can hear a bell ring
One more look and I forget everything,
Whoa – Oh – Oh
Mamma mia, here I go again
My my, how can I resist you?
Mamma mia, does it show again?
My my, just how much I’ve missed you
Yes, I’ve been brokenhearted
Blue since the day we parted
Why, why did I ever let you go?
Mamma Mia, even if I say
Bye bye, leave me now or never
Mamma Mia, it’s a game we play
Bye bye doesn’t mean forever
Mamma mia, here I go again
My my, how can I resist you?
Mamma mia, does it show again?
My my, just how much I’ve missed you
Mamma Mia
Stand By Me
By Ben E. King, Jerry Leiber, and Mike Stoller.
When the night has come, And the land is dark
And the moon is the only light we’ll see I won’t be afraid,
Oh, I won’t be afraid. No, I won’t be afraid.
Just as long as you stand, stand by me.
So darling, darling Stand by me,
Oh, stand by me Oh stand,
Stand by me, stand by me.
If the sky that we look upon. Should tumble and fall
Or the mountains should crumble to the sea.
I won’t cry, I won’t cry. No, I won’t shed a tear.
Just as long as you stand, stand by me.
So darling, darling Stand by me,
Oh, stand by me Oh stand,
Stand by me, stand by me.
When the night has come, And the land is dark
And the moon is the only light we’ll see I won’t be afraid,
Oh, I won’t be afraid. No, I won’t be afraid.
Just as long as you stand, stand by me.
Take Me Home Country Roads
By Bill Danoff, Taffy Nivert, John Denver
Almost Heaven, West Virginia
Blue Ridge Mountains, Shenandoah River.
Life is old there, older than the trees.
Younger than the mountains, growin’ like a breeze.
Country roads, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain mama
Take me home, country roads.
All my memories gather ’round her
Miner’s lady, stranger to blue water
Dark and dusty, painted on the sky
Misty taste of moonshine, teardrop in my eye.
Country roads, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain mama
Take me home, country roads
I hear her voice in the mornin’ hour, she calls me.
The radio reminds me of my home far away.
Drivin’ down the road, I get a feelin’.
That I should’ve been home yesterday, yesterday.
Country roads, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain mama
Take me home, country roads.
(Repeat chorus)
Everybody Wants To Love
By Ingrid Michaelson
We have fallen down again tonight.
In this world it’s hard to get it right.
Trying to make your heart fit like a glove.
What it needs is love, love, love.
(Chorus)
Everybody, everybody wants to love
Everybody, everybody wants to be loved
Oh oh oh, Oh oh oh
(repeat)
Happy is the heart that still feels pain.
Darkness drains and light will come again.
Swing open up your chest and let it in.
Just let the love, love, love begin
(Chorus)
Everybody, everybody wants to love
Everybody, everybody wants to be loved
Oh oh oh, Oh oh oh
(repeat)
Oh, everybody knows the love
Everybody holds the love
Everybody folds for love
Everybody feels the love
Everybody steals the love
Everybody heals with love
Everybody, everybody wants to love
Everybody, everybody wants to be loved
Oh oh oh, Oh oh oh
Everybody, everybody wants to love
Everybody, everybody wants to be loved
Oh oh oh, Just let the Love Love Love, begin.
Blowin’ in the Wind
By Bob Dylan
How many roads must a man walk down
Before you call him a man?
Yes, and how many seas must a white dove sail,
before she sleeps in the sand?
Yes, and how many times must the cannonballs fly,
Before they’re forever banned?
The answer, my friend, is blowin’ in the wind.
The answer is blowin’ in the wind.
How many years can a mountain exist
Before it’s washed to the sea?
Yes, and how many years can some people exist,
Before they’re allowed to be free?
Yes, and how many times can a man turn his head,
pretending he just doesn’t see?
The answer, my friend, is blowin’ in the wind.
The answer is blowin’ in the wind.
How many times must a man look up
Before he can see the sky?
Yes, and how many ears must one man have
Before he can hear people cry?
Yes, and how many deaths will it take
Till he knows that too many people have died?
The answer, my friend, is blowin’ in the wind.
The answer is blowin’ in the wind.

Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da
By Lennon–McCartney (The Beatles)
Desmond has a barrow in the marketplace.
Molly is the singer in a band.
Desmond says to Molly, girl I like your face.
And Molly says this as she takes him by the hand
Ob-la-di, ob-la-da, Life goes on, bra,
La la how the life goes on.
Ob-la-di, ob-la-da, Life goes on, bra,
La la how the life goes on.
Desmond take a trolley to the jewelry store.
Buys a twenty carat golden ring.
Takes it back to Molly waiting at the door
And as he gives it to her she begins to sing.
Ob-la-di, ob-la-da Life goes on, bra
La la how the life goes on
Ob-la-di, ob-la-da Life goes on, bra
La la how the life goes on
In a couple of years they have built a home sweet home.
With a couple of kids running in the yard
of Desmond and Molly Jones.
Happy ever after in the market place.
Desmond lets the children lend a hand.
Molly stays at home and does her pretty face
And in the evening she’s still sings it with the band.
In a couple of years they have built a home sweet home.
With a couple of kids running in the yard
of Desmond and Molly Jones.
Happy ever after in the market place.
Molly lets the children lend a hand.
Desmond stays at home and does his pretty face.
And in the evening she’s a singer with the band.
Ob-la-di, ob-la-da Life goes on, bra
La la how the life goes on
Ob-la-di, ob-la-da Life goes on, bra
La la how the life goes on
And if you want some fun
Sing Ob-la-di, bla-da
Let It Be
By Paul McCartney (The Beatles)
When I find myself in times of trouble
Mother Mary comes to me
Speaking words of wisdom Let it be
And in my hour of darkness
She is standing right in front of me
Speaking words of wisdom Let it be
Let it be, let it be, Let it be, let it be,
Whisper words of wisdom, Let it be.
And when the broken hearted people
Living in the world agree,
There will be an answer Let it be.
For though they may be parted
There is Still a chance that they will see.
There will be an answer Let it be.
Let it be, let it be Let it be, let it be,
There will be an answer, Let it be.
Let it be, let it be, Let it be, let it be
Whisper words of wisdom Let it be.
And when the night is cloudy,
There is still a light that shines on me
Shine until tomorrow, Let it be.
I wake up to the sound of music,
Mother Mary comes to me.
Speaking words of wisdom, Let it be.
Let it be, let it be, Let it be, let it be,
There will be an answer, Let it be.
Let it be, let it be, Let it be, let it be,
Whisper words of wisdom Let it be.
One Voice
By Ruth Moody (Wailin’ Jennys)
This is the sound of all of us,
Singing with love and the will to trust.
Leave the rest behind, it will turn to dust.
This is the sound of all of us.
This is the sound of all of us.
This is the sound of one voice,
One people, one voice.
A song for every one of us.
This is the sound of one voice.
This is the sound of one voice.
This is the sound of one voice.
Sweet Caroline
By Neil Diamond
Where it began, I can’t begin to know when,
but then I know it’s growin’ strong
Was in the spring, and spring became the summer,
who’d have believed you’d come along?
Hands, touchin’ hands, Reachin’ out,
Touching me, touchin’ you.
Sweet Caroline, good times never seemed so good.
I’ve been inclined, to believe they never would, but now I’m…
Look at the night, and it don’t seem so lonely.
We fill it up with only two.
And when I hurt, hurtin’ runs off my shoulders.
How can I hurt when holdin’ you?
Warm, touchin’ warm
Reachin’ out, touchin’ me, touchin’ you
Sweet Caroline, good times never seemed so good.
I’ve been inclined, to believe they never would, oh, no, no
INSTRUMENTAL BREAK
Sweet Caroline, good times never seemed so good.
Sweet Caroline, I believe they never could
(Repeat)
