It Don’t Mean a Thing if it Ain’t Got that Swing (Duke Ellington Orchestra, Ella Fitzgerald)

Music by Duke Ellington, lyrics by Irving Mills © 1931

1. It don't mean a thing if it ain't got that swing (Doo-wah, doo-wah, doo-wah, doo-wah, Doo-wah, doo-wah, doo-wah, doo-wah)

It don't mean a thing, all you got to do is sing

(Doo-wah, doo-wah, doo-wah, doo-wah, Doo-wah, doo-wah, doo-wah, doo-wah)

It makes no diff'rence if it's sweet or it's hot Just give that rhythm ev'rything you got Oh, it don't mean a thing if it ain't got that swing

(Doo-wah, doo-wah, doo-wah, doo-wah, Doo-wah, doo-wah, doo-wah, doo-wah)

Sweet Georgia Brown (Bernie, Pinkard) Music by Ben Bernie and Maceo Pinkard,

lyrics by Kenneth Casey © 1925

1. No gal made has got a shade on Sweet Georgia Brown Two left feet, oh so neat, has Sweet Georgia Brown

They all sigh and want to die for Sweet Georgia Brown I'll tell you just why, you know I don't lie, not much

It's been said she knocks 'em dead when she lands in town Since she came why it's a shame how she cools them down

Fellas she can't get must be fellas she ain't met Georgia claimed her, Georgia named her Sweet Georgia Brown

2

2. No gal made has got a shade on Sweet Georgia Brown Two left feet, oh so neat, has Sweet Georgia Brown

They all sigh and want to die for Sweet Georgia Brown I'll tell you just why, you know I don't lie, not much

All those gifts, those courters give to Sweet Georgia Brown They buy clothes at fashion shows with one dollar down

Oh boy, tip your hat, oh joy, she's the cat Who's that, mister? It ain't her sister, Sweet Georgia Brown

Glow Little Glow Worm (Mills Brothers) By Paul Lincke's and Heinz Bolten-Backers © 1902 Additional lyrics by Johnny Mercer © 1952

Verse 1: Shine little glow-worm, glimmer, glimmer

Shine little glow-worm, glimmer, glimmer Lead us lest too far we wander

Love's sweet voice is callin' yonder Shine little glow-worm, glimmer, glimmer

Hey, there don't get dimmer, dimmer Light the path below, above

And lead us on to love 2. Glow little glow-worm, fly of fire

Glow like an incandescent wire Glow for the female of the species

Turn on the AC and the DC This night could use a little brightnin'

Light up you little ol' bug of lightnin' When you gotta glow, you gotta glow

Glow little glow-worm, glow

3

3. Glow little glow-worm, glow and glimmer Swim through the sea of night, little swimmer

Thou aeronautical boll weevil Illuminate yon woods primeval

See how the shadows deep and darken You and your chick should get to sparkin'

I got a gal that I love so Glow little glow-worm, glow

4. Glow little glow-worm, turn the key on

You are equipped with taillight neon You got a cute vest-pocket *Mazda*

Which you can make both slow and faster I don't know who you took the shine to

Or who you're out to make a sign to I got a gal that I love so

Glow little glow-worm, glow (repeat 3 times)

Blue Moon (Rodgers, Hart) By Richard Rodgers and Lorenz Hart © 1934

1. Blue Moon You saw me standing alone

Without a dream in my heart Without a love of my own

Blue Moon You know just what I was there for

You heard me saying a prayer for Someone I really could care for

And then there suddenly appeared before me The only one my arms will ever hold I heard somebody whisper please adore me And when I looked the Moon had turned to gold

4

2. Blue Moon Now I'm no longer alone

Without a dream in my heart Without a love of my own

And then there suddenly appeared before me The only one my arms will ever hold I heard somebody whisper please adore me And when I looked the Moon had turned to gold

Blue moon

Now I'm no longer alone Without a dream in my heart

Without a love of my own

California Dreamin’ (The Mamas & the Papas) By John Phillips and Michelle Phillips © 1965

1. All the leaves are brown and the sky is gray I've been for a walk on a winter's day

I'd be safe and warm if I was in L.A. California dreamin' on such a winter's day

2. Stopped in to a church I passed along the way

Well I got down on my knees and I pretend to pray You know the preacher liked the cold

He knows I'm gonna stay California dreamin' on such a winter's day 3. All the leaves are brown and the sky is gray

I've been for a walk on a winter's day If I didn't tell her I could leave today California dreamin' on such a winter's day (repeat 2 times)

Hot Fun in the Summertime (Sly & the Family Stone) By Sly Stewart © 1969

1. End of the spring and here she comes back Hi, hi, hi, hi, there

Them summer days, those summer days That's when I had most of my fun back

High, high, high, high there Them summer days, those summer days I cloud nine when I want to

Out of school, yeah County fair in the country sun

And everything, it's true, ooh, yeah Hot fun in the summertime (repeat 3 times) 2. First of the fall and then she goes back

Bye, bye, bye, bye there Them summer days, those summer days Boop, boop, ba, boop, boop when I want to

Out of school, yeah County fair in the country sun

And everything it's cool, ooh yeah Hot fun in the summertime (repeat 2 times)

White Rabbit (Jefferson Airplane) Grace Slick © 1966

1. One pill makes you larger And one pill makes you small

And the ones that mother gives you Don't do anything at all

Go ask Alice When she's ten feet tall 2. And if you go chasing rabbits

And you know you're going to fall Tell 'em a hookah-smoking caterpillar

Has given you the call Call Alice When she was just small 3. When the men on the chessboard

Get up and tell you where to go And you've just had some kind of mushroom

And your mind is moving low Go ask Alice I think she'll know 4. When logic and proportion

Have fallen sloppy dead And the White Knight is talking backwards

And the Red Queen's off with her head Remember what the dormouse said

Feed your head Feed your head

Age of Aquarius (The Fifth Dimension) Music by Galt MacDermot, lyrics by James Rado

& Gerome Ragni © 1967

1. When the moon is in the Seventh House And Jupiter aligns with Mars

Then peace will guide the planets And love will steer the stars

This is the dawning of the Age of Aquarius

Age of Aquarius Aquarius! Aquarius! Harmony and understanding

Sympathy and trust abounding No more falsehoods or derisions

Golden living dreams of visions Mystic crystal revelation

And the mind's true liberation Aquarius! Aquarius! 2. When the moon is in the Seventh House

And Jupiter aligns with Mars Then peace will guide the planets

And love will steer the stars This is the dawning of the Age of Aquarius Age of Aquarius Aquarius! Aquarius! Let the sun shine, Let the sun shine in The sun shine in (repeat these 2 lines 10 more times)

Yesterday (The Beatles) By Paul McCartney © 1965

1. Yesterday all my troubles seemed so far away. Now it looks as though they're here to stay. Oh, I believe in yesterday. 2. Suddenly, I'm not half the man I used to be. There's a shadow hanging over me. Oh, yesterday came suddenly.

Why she had to go? I don't know, she wouldn't say. I said something wrong. Now I long for yesterday.

3. Yesterday love was such an easy game to play. Now I need a place to hide away. Oh, I believe in yesterday.

Why she had to go? I don't know, she wouldn't say. I said something wrong. Now I long for yesterday.

4. Yesterday love was such an easy game to play. Now I need a place to hide away. Oh, I believe in yesterday. Mm mm mm mm mm mm mm.

Hey Jude (The Beatles) By Paul McCartney and John McCartney © 1968

1. Hey, Jude, don't make it bad Take a sad song and make it better

Remember to let her into your heart Then you can start to make it better

2. Hey, Jude, don't be afraid

You were made to go out and get her The minute you let her under your skin

You’ll Never Walk Alone (from the Movie, “Carousel”)

By Richard Rodgers and Oscar Hammerstein © 1945

When you walk through a storm Hold your head up high

And don't be afraid of the dark At the end of a storm

There's a golden sky And the sweet silver song of a lark Walk on through the wind

Walk on through the rain Though your dreams be tossed and blown Walk on, walk on

With hope in your heart And you'll never walk alone You'll never walk alone

20

Theme from the Movie: New York, New York (Liza Minnelli)

Music by John Kander, lyrics by Fred Ebb © 1977

1. Start spreading the news, I'm leaving today I want to be a part of it New York, New York These vagabond shoes Are longing to stray And step a round of heart of it New York, New York

I want to wake up in that city, that doesn't sleep To find I'm king of the hill, top of the heap

2. My little town blues, Are melting away I'll make a brand new start of it In old New York If I can make it there, I'll make it anywhere It's up to you, New York, New York

New York, New York I wanna wake up, in the city that doesn't sleep, To find I'm king of the hill, head of the list Cream of the crop at the top of the heap

My little town blues are melting away I'll make a brand new start of it, in old New York If I can make it there, I'd make it anywhere Come on, come through New York, New York

(repeat last 4 lines)

Take the “A” Train (Duke Ellington Orchestra) By Billy Strayhorn © 1939

You must take the "A" train To go to Sugar Hill way up in Harlem. If you miss the "A" train You'll find you’ve missed the quickest way to Harlem.

Hurry, get on, now it's coming. Listen to those rails a thrumming.

All board! Get on the "A" train. Soon you will be on Sugar Hill in Harlem.

Moonlight in Vermont (Ella Fitzgerald) Music by Karl Suessdorf, lyrics by John Blackburn © 1944

1. Pennies in a stream Falling leaves of a sycamore Moonlight in Vermont 2. Icey finger waves Ski trails on a mountain side Snowlight in Vermont

Telegraph cables, they sing down the highway And travel each bend in the road People who meet, in this romantic setting Are so hypnotized by the lovely...

3. Evening summer breeze Warbling of a meadowlark Moonlight in Vermont

22

(Instrumental)

Telegraph cables, they sing down the highway And travel each bend in the road People who meet, in this romantic setting Are so hypnotized by the lovely...

4. Evening summer breeze Warbling of a meadowlark Moonlight in Vermont You and I and moonlight in Vermont

La Vie en Rose (Edith Piaf) Music by Louiguy and Marguerite Monnotand, lyrics

by Édith Piaf © 1945

1. Quand il me prend dans ses bras Il me parle tout bas

Je vois la vie en rose. Il me dit des mots d'amour

Des mots de tous les jours Et ça me fait quelque chose.

Il est entré dans mon coeur Une part de bonheur Dont je connais la cause. C'est lui pour moi. Moi pour lui dans la vie Il me l'a dit, l'a juré pour la vie. Et dès que je l'aperçois Alors je sens en moi Mon coeur qui bat

23

English lyrics: Hold me close and hold me fast The magic spell you cast

This is La Vie en Rose When you kiss me heaven sighs And tho I close my eyes

I see La Vie en Rose When you press me to your heart I’m in a world apart

A world where roses bloom And when you speak

Angels sing from above Everyday words seem to

Turn into love songs Give your heart and soul to me And life will always be

La Vie en Rose

California Here I Come (Al Jolson) By Buddy DeSylva and Joseph Meyer © 1921

Verse: When the wintry winds starts blowing

And the snow is starting in a fall Then my eyes went westward knowing

That's the place that I love best of all California I've been blue

Since I've been away from you I can't wait till I get blowing

Even now I'm starting in a call Chorus: California, here I come Right back where I started from Where bowers of flowers

Bloom in the spring Each morning at dawning

Birdies sing at everything A sun kissed miss said, "Don't be late!"

That's why I can hardly wait Open up that golden gate

California, here I come

25

I Left My Heart In San Francisco (Tony Bennett) Music by George Cory, lyrics by Douglass Cross © 1953

Verse: The loveliness of Paris seems somehow sadly gray

The glory that was Rome is of another day I've been terribly alone and forgotten in Manhattan

I'm going home to my city by the Bay Chorus: 1. I left my heart in San Francisco

High on a hill, it calls to me To be where little cable cars climb halfway to the stars

The morning fog may chill the air, I don't care 2. My love waits there in San Francisco

Above the blue and windy sea When I come home to you, San Francisco

Your golden sun will shine for me

Lights (Journey) By Steve Perry and Neal Schon © 1978

Chorus: When the lights go down in the City

And the sun shines on the bay I want to be there in my City

Ooh, ooh So you think you're lonely

Well my friend I'm lonely too I want to get back to my City by the bay

Ooh, ooh

26

It's sad, oh there's been mornings out on the road without you, Without your charms, Ooh, my, my, my, ooh

Chorus: When the lights go down in the City

And the sun shines on the bay I want to be there in my City

Ooh, ooh

(Instrumental, then repeat Chorus)

27

Don’t Stop Believin’ (Journey) By Journey © 1981

1. Just a small town girl, livin' in a lonely world She took the midnight train goin' anywhere

Just a city boy, born and raised in south Detroit He took the midnight train goin' anywhere

2. A singer in a smokey room

A smell of wine and cheap perfume For a smile they can share the night

It goes on and on and on and on Chorus: Strangers waiting, up and down the boulevard

Their shadows searching in the night Streetlights people, living just to find emotion

Hiding, somewhere in the night. 3. Working hard to get my fill,

Everybody wants a thrill Payin' anything to roll the dice,

Just one more time 4. Some will win, some will lose

Some were born to sing the blues Oh, the movie never ends

It goes on and on and on and on Chorus: Strangers waiting, up and down the boulevard

Their shadows searching in the night Streetlights people, living just to find emotion

Hiding, somewhere in the night.

28

Ending: Don't stop believin' Hold on to the feelin' Streetlights people Don't stop believin' Hold on Streetlight people Don't stop believin' Hold on to the feelin' Streetlights people

29

The Answer is Blowin’ in the Wind (Bob Dylan) By Bob Dylan © 1962

1. How many roads must a man walk down Before you can call him a man?

How many seas must a white dove sail Before she sleeps in the sand?

Yes, how many times must the cannon balls fly Before they're forever banned?

The answer my friend is blowin' in the wind The answer is blowin' in the wind.

2. Yes, how many years can a mountain exist

Before it's washed to the sea? Yes, how many years can some people exist

Before they're allowed to be free? Yes, 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.

3. Yes, how many times must a man look up

Before he can really see the sky? Yes, how many ears must one man have

Before he can hear people cry? Yes, 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.

30

You’ve Got A Friend (James Taylor) By Carole King © 1971

1. When you're down and troubled And you need a helping hand

And nothing, whoa, nothing Is going right

Close your eyes and think of me and soon I will be there To brighten up even your darkest nights

You just call out my name, and you know wherever I am I'll come running, oh yeah baby, to see you again Winter, spring, summer, or fall All you got to do is call and I'll be there, yeah, yeah, yeah You've got a friend

2. If the sky above you should turn dark and full of clouds

And that old north wind should begin to blow Keep your head together and call my name out loud now

Soon I'll be knocking upon your door

You just call out my name, and you know wherever I am I'll come running, oh yes I will, see you again Winter, spring, summer, or fall, yeah All you got to do is call and I'll be there, yeah, yeah, yeah

Bridge: Hey, ain't it good to know that you've got a friend?

People can be so cold They'll hurt you and desert you

Well, they'll take your soul if you let them Oh yeah, but don't you let them

31

You just call out my name, and you know where ever I am I'll come running to see you again Oh baby, don't you know about Winter, spring, summer, or fall Hey now, all you have to do is call, Lord, I'll be there, yeah, yeah

Shower the People You Love with Love (James Taylor)

By James Taylor © 1976

1. You can play the game and you can act out the part, Though you know it wasn't written for you.

Tell me, how can you stand there with your broken heart Ashamed of playing the fool?

One thing can lead to another;

It doesn't take any sacrifice. Oh, father and mother, sister and brother,

If it feels nice, don't think twice, just Shower the people you love with love,

Show them the way that you feel. Things are gonna turn out fine if you only will do as I say, just Shower the people you love with love,

Show them the way that you feel. Things are gonna be much better if you only will. 2. You can run but you cannot hide,

This is widely known. Tell me, what you plan to do with your foolish pride

When you're all by yourself, alone. Once you tell somebody the way that you feel,

You can feel it beginning to ease. I think it's true what they say about the squeaky wheel

Always getting the grease.

33

Better to shower the people you love with love, Show them the way that you feel.

Things are gonna turn out right if you only will, If we only will. Shower the people you love with love,

Show them the way that you feel. Things are gonna be much better if you only will. (Instrumental) Shower the people you love with love,

show them the way that you feel. Shower the people you love with love,

show them the way that you feel. (Keep repeating …) Solo as chorus keeps going:

They say in every life, they say the rain must fall, just like pouring rain, make it rain. Make it rain, love, love, love is sunshine, oh yes, Make it rain, love, love, love is sunshine. Everybody, everybody.

Come here sister... Papa's in the swing He ain't too hip... about that new breed babe

He ain't no drag Papa's got a brand new bag

Come here mama... and dig this crazy scene

He's not too fancy... but his line is pretty clean He ain't no drag.

Papa's got a brand new bag He's doing the Jerk...

He's doing the Fly Don't play him cheap 'cause you know he ain't shy

He's doing the Monkey, the Mashed Potatoes, Jump back Jack, See you later

Alligator Come here sister

Papa's in the swing He ain't too hip now

But I can dig that new breed babe; He ain't no drag

He's got a brand new bag Oh papa! He's doing the Jerk

Papa... he's doing the Jerk He's doing the twist ... just like this,

He's doing the Fly ev'ry day and ev'ry night The thing's... like the Boomerang.
