letra de Move It
Fifty-five Ford died right on the road
Drove for the curb, raised up the hood
Couldn't see nothing wrong, line o' cars long
Traffic bogged down, tryin' to drive around
Officer Lamar, walkin' toward the car:
"Move it!", "Come along move it",
"You cannot stop it here, now move it", "Move it"
"Get out of there, move it"
Three and two the count, bases loaded down
Slugger at the plate, known to hit 'em straight
Tension from the fans, shoutin' in the stands
Signal from the catch, pitcher's in the stretch
Bat 'n' ball crack, pitcher's backin' back:
"Move it!", "Move it!", "Get along, move it!"
"The ball is droppin' past, now" "Move it!"
"Let the ball, now, let's go home, now, move it!"
She drives a Mustang, she lets her hair hang
She dresses like a fish, makes you look and wish
Puts you in a trance, body built to dance
Disco queen, twistin' in between
Play a super song, watch her get it on
Pretty, wow!
"Get hip, move it!" "Move it"

letra de Oh What a Thrill
Oh, well, well, well, you've blown my clouds away
My rains have gone and my sunshine's here to stay
And I feel so good I could really get down today
Hollerin' yes, yes! Oh, what a thrill
Hollerin' yes, yes! Oh, what a thrill
If you say I can stay, baby, you know I will
I could stay here all evenin' listenin' to the music you play
Those same sweet songs of a golden yesterday
Squeezin' and teasin' and pleasin' the evenin' away
Hollerin' yes, yes! Oh, what a thrill
Hollerin' yes, yes! Oh, what a thrill
If you say I can stay, baby, you know I will
I will wake up in the morning and do the same sweet things
Rockin' with the record that the same sweet people sing
All the clouds from the west go east, you confess it is spring
Hollerin' yes, yes! Oh, what a thrill
Hollerin' yes, yes! Oh, what a thrill
I want you to want you to love you of your own free will
Baby, you're so beautiful to want me here to stay
I would be here forever but I gotta die someday
But I will be lovin' you, baby, when I pass away
Hollerin' yes, yes! Oh, what a thrill
Hollerin' yes, yes! Oh, what a thrill
I will love you like a lover loves a lover always

letra de I Need You Baby
Please, listen, baby, try and understand
As sure as a woman needs a man
I need you baby, I just wanted you then
But I'm in love with you now
I walk the floor sprinkled with tears since you've been gone
Oh, it'd seem like a thousand years
I need you baby, I just wanted you then
But I'm in love with you now
True love like yours is so hard to find
If you don't come back baby, Lord knows I'll lose my mind
I need you baby, I just wanted you then
But I'm in love with you now
He loved other women and I love only you
But you fall on him, Lord, like the morning dew
I need you baby, I just wanted you then
But I'm in love with you now
Do you care for me less than you did before ?
Or don't you love me at all anymore ?
I need you baby, I just wanted you then
But I do love you now
If I WereVer letra 3:05

letra de If I Were
If I were a pendulum swing and you were the bird in the cuckoo clock
Ev'ry time you cucko-cooed I would double tick another tick tock
I'd double my swing ev'ry time you'd sing we'd make good time with each other
Oh, but that would be just so much fun cooin' and swingin' together
If I were a little bitty boy and I had just a little bit o' credit
I would make a loan for an ice cream cone and I'd go right away and get it
You would lick a little and I would lick a little, we surely could lick with each other
Oh, but that would be just so much fun, eating it all together
And if I were a little honey bee and you were a little butterfly
I would be waiting at the garden gate until you came fluttering by
Maybe you'd stop on a red rose top and then we could talk to each other
Oh, but we cou'd flutter up so much fun being in the garden together
But I'm just an ordinary guy and I love all the things you do
You seem such a talented, beautiful girl and I'm afraid to even talk to you
If I were as bold like some guys, hearin' them talk to each other
I'd come over and ask you if we could go out together
But if you were a Mercedes-Benz, I'd have to be a Fleetwood Brougham
And ev'ry time I saw you rollin' on the freeway I think I'd have to follow you home
You could let me lodge in your double garage, bumper to bumper out of the weather
Nobody home but the Benz and the Brougham, really rarin' to roll off together

letra de House Lights
Hey! Ev'rybody, let's get it on
You got one more chance 'fore the lights come on
Don't let nobody turn you 'round. go 'head on
Do your thing, come on, get down!
I want to know, can you hear me ? Does it sound alright ?
Am I comin' through clearly, gettin' down tonight ?
Well, go on, do your thing, till I call for the lights
Well, is ev'rybody happy ?
I wanna hear you say "Yes"
I wanna know, are you happy ?
I wanna hear you confess
Come on, are you happy ?
Let me hear you say "Yes"
Turn the house lights on
Let the clock tick on
Turn the house lights on
While I'm playing my song
Let the night roll on
Ev'rybody, rock on!
Do you want us to stop ?
Do you want us to play ?
Do you want us to go ?
Do you want us to stay ?
Just diggin' this boogie
All night and all day
Well, hold your hand up higher
So the drummer won't tire
Hold it up a little higher
Set the building on fire
My throat is gettin' drier
So you gotta get higher
(Get on down there now and get it!)
We gotta go now
Yeah, we gotta split
Gotta go get a little bit
No, no, no, no, we gotta quit
I'll go sit by my old git in the pit
Bye, bye, bye, this is it
Now you know we gotta go now
Got to leave the show now
The police at the door now
Gotta close this show now
We really gon' go now
Raise your hand once more now
Get that hand up higher
Well, a little bit higher
I got to see your hand
Yeah, a little bit higher
Well, a little bit higher
Higher, higher
(Get it up there now, get it up there)
Higher, higher, higher, higher, higher
Higher, higher, higher, higher, higher
Higher, bye, bye

letra de I Never Thought
You know I never really thought some things would ever really come to be
'Cause I don't bother nobody and don't nobody bother me
I went down in Mississippi, I asked Mister Charlie about my roots
He said, "Turn around, bend over, boy, they're right here in my boots"
You know I never thought a thing like that would ever really come to be
'Cause I don't bother nobody and don't nobody bother me
I asked a policeman the time, he swung and crowned me with his stock
I managed to walk away so glad it weren't twelve o'clock
You know I never thought a thing like that would ever really come to be
'Cause I don't bother nobody and don't nobody bother me
My girl friend's datin' this here guy who's goin' out with some man's wife
I lost my girl, the wife her husband, the guy he lost his life
You know I never thought a thing like that would ever really come to be
'Cause I don't bother nobody and don't nobody bother me
I used to have a Ford Torino and at that time I had a chick
She used to get her kicks just askin' me to flick my Bic
You know I never thought a thing like that would ever really come to be
'Cause I don't bother nobody and don't nobody bother me
My grandpa drove a horse and buggy but my father used the train
I worked and bought a Cadillac but my son, he drives a plane
You know I never thought a thing like that would ever really come to be
'Cause I don't bother nobody and don't nobody bother me

letra de Havana Moon
Havana moon, Havana moon
Me all alone with jug of rum
Me stand and wait for boat to come
It's long the night, it's quiet the dock
The boat she late since 12 o'clock
Me watch the tide easin' in
Is low the moon, but high the wind
Havana moon, Havana moon
Me all alone, me open the rum
It's long the wait for boat to come
American girl come back to me
We'll sail away across the sea
We'll dock in New York, the buildings high
We'll find a home up in the sky
Havana moon, Havana moon
Me still alone, me sip on the rum
Me wonder where the boat she come
To bring me love, ow! Sweet little thing
She rock and roll, she dance and sing
She hold me tight, she touch me lips
Me eyes they close, me heart she flip
Havana moon, Havana moon
But still alone, me drinkin' the rum
Begin to think the boat no come
American girl, she tell a lie
She say till then, she mean goodbye
Havana moon, Havana moon
Me lay down alone, was good the rum
Me fall asleep, the boat she come
The girl she look till come the dawn
She weep and cry, "Return for home"
The whistle blow, me open me eyes
Was bright the sun, was blue the sky
Me grab me shoes, me jump and run
Me see the boat head for horizon
Havana moon, is gone the rum
The boat she sail, me love she gone
Havana moon, Havana moon

letra de California
California, California
Much has been told me about your beautiful sunshine
Mountains and snow tops, valleys and rich crops
California, home so far from mine
San Francisco, Sacramento
Will I ever go to Los Angeles or San Diego ?
To Reading or Fresno
Needles or Borstow, California I have so far to go
Someday I will be in California
And go to places movie stars have been
Hollywood and trolley cars and oranges
And see the palm trees bending in the wind
California, California
Soon I'll be with you watching your sunset in the evening
Movies and show plays, beaches and free ways
California, from my home I'll be leaving
California, California
Soon I'll be with you watching your sunset in the evening
Movies and show plays, beaches and free ways
California, for my home I'm leaving

letra de Pass Away
(Recitation)
Once in Persia reigned a king who upon his royal ring carved these words so true and wise
Which when held before his eyes gave him counsel at a glance of his life of changing chance
Solemn words and these are they: "Even this shall pass away"
Trains of camels through the sand brought him gems from Samarkand
Fleets of galleys through the sea brought him pearls to match with thee
But he counted not his gain nor his treasure, mine or main
"What is wealth ?", the king would say, "Even this shall pass away"
In the revel of his court, at the zenith of his sport
When the palms of all his guests burned with clapping at his zest
He among his figs and wine would cry, "Oh, loving friends of mine
Pleasures may come, but they cannot stay, like even this shall pass away ?"
The most beautiful woman ever seen was the bride he chose his queen
Pillowed on their royal bed, whispering to her soul he said:
"Though a bridegroom never pressed dearer bosom to his chest
But mortal flesh must come to clay and even these shall pass away"
Towering over the village square, thirty meters in the air
Rose his statue, carved in stone, as the king stood there alone
Gazing at his sculptured name, said to himself, "So what is fame ?
Fame, it's but slow decay, even this shall pass away"
Fighting furiously on a battlefield, once a javelin pierced his shield
Soldiers with a loud lament bore him bleeding to his tent
Groaning from his tortured side, "Pain is hard to bear", he cried
"Oh, but with patience day by day, even this shall pass away"
Sick and sore with cancer; weak and tired and old, just minutes yet to go to pass the gates o' gold
Spake he with his dying breath, "Life is done, so what is death ?"
Then in answer to the king fell a sunbeam on his ring
Reflecting words he failed to say: "Even this shall pass away"
