LUCKY MAN
He had white horses and ladies by the score

All dressed in satin and waiting by the door

Ooh what a lucky man he was

Ooh what a lucky man he was

White lace and feathers they made up his bed

A rose covered mattress on which he was led

Ooh what a lucky man he was

Ooh what a lucky man he was

He went to fight wars for his country and his king

Of his honour and his glory the people still sing

Ooh what a lucky man he was

Ooh what a lucky man he was

A bullet it found him his blood ran as he cried

Nobody could save him so he lay down and he died

Ooh what a lucky man he was

Ooh what a lucky man he was

He had white horses and ladies by the score

All dressed in satin and waiting by the door

Ooh what a lucky man he was

Ooh what a lucky man he was

LYING EYES
City girls just seem to find out early

How to open doors with just a smile

A rich old man and she won't have to worry

She'll dress up all in lace and go in style

Late at night a big old house gets lonely

I guess every form of refuge has it's price

And it breaks her heart to think her love is only

Given to a man with hands as cold as ice

So she tells him she must go out for the evening

To comfort an old friend who's feeling down

But he knows where she's going as she's leaving

She's heading for the cheating side of town

You can't hide your lying eyes

And your smile is a thin disguise

I thought by now you'd realise

Ain't no way to hide your lying eyes

On the other side of town a boy is waiting

With firey eyes and dreams no one can see

She drives on through the night anticipating

'Cause he makes her feel the way she used to feel

She rushes to his arms they fall together

She whispers that it's only for a while

She swears that soon she'll be coming back for ever

She pulls away and leaves him with a smile

You can't hide your lying eyes

And your smile is a thin disguise

I thought by now you'd realise

Ain't no way to hide your lying eyes

She gets up and pours herself a strong one

And stares out at the stars up in the sky

Another night it's going to be a long one

She draws the shades and hangs her head to cry

She wonders how it ever got this crazy

She thinks about a boy she knew in school

Did she get tired or did she just get lazy

She's so far gone she feels just like a fool

My oh my you sure know how to arrange things

You set it up so well so carefully

Ain't it funny how your new life didn't change things

You're still the same old girl you used to be

You can't hide your lying eyes

And your smile is a thin disguise

I thought by now you'd realise

Ain't no way to hide your lying eyes

Aint no way to hide your lying eyes

Honey you can't hide your lying eyes

MADNESS
Madness madness they call it madness

Madness madness they call it madness

It's plain to see that is what they mean to me

Madness madness they call it gladness

Madness madness they call it madness

Madness madness they call it madness

I'm about to explain I've had someone including their brain

Madness madness they call it gladness

Propaganda ministers propaganda ministers

I've a got a heavy due I'm gonna walk all over you

Madness madness they call it madness

Well if this is madness then I know I'm filled with gladness

It's gonna be rougher it's gonna be tougher banana banana

And I won't be the one who's gonna suffer oh no

I won't be the one who's gonna suffer

You know I won't be the one You

MAGGIE
I wandered today to the hills Maggie

To watch the scene being old

The creek and the creaking old mill Maggie

As we used to long long ago

The green grove is gone from the hills Maggie

Where first the daisies brown

The creaking old mill is still Maggie

Since you and I were young

Oh they say that I’m feeble with age Maggie

My steps are much slower than then

My face is a well written page Maggie

And time all alone was the pen

They say we have outlived our time Maggie

As dated as songs that we’ve sung

But to me you’re as fair as you were Maggie

When you and I were young

They say we have outlived our time Maggie

As dated as songs that we’ve sung

But to me you’re as fair as you were Maggie

When you and I were young

When you and I were young
MAGGIE MAY
Wake up Maggie I think I've got something to say to you

It's late September and I really should be back at school

I know I keep you amused but I feel I'm being used

Oh Maggie I couldn't have tried anymore

You led me away from home just to save you from being alone

You stole my heart and that's what really hurts

The morning sun when it's in your face really shows your age

But that don't worry me none, in my eyes you're everything

I laughed at all your jokes, my love you didn't need to coax

Oh Maggie I couldn't have tried anymore

You led me away from home just to save you from being alone

You stole my soul and that's a pain I can do without

All I needed was a friend to lend a guiding hand

But you turned into a lover and mother what a lover you wore me out

All you did was wreck my bed and in the morning kick me in the head

Oh Maggie I couldn't have tried anymore

You led me away from home 'cause you didn't want to be alone

You stole my heart, I couldn't leave you anyway

I suppose I could collect my books and go on back to school

Or steal my daddy's cue and make a living out of playing pool

Or find myself a rock and roll band that needs a helping hand

Oh Maggie I wish I'd never seen your face

You made a first class fool out of me but I'm as blind as a fool can be

You stole my heart but I love you anyway

Maggie I wish I'd never seen your face

I'll get on back home one of these days

MAGINOT WALTZ
All off to Brighton in a charabanc

Albert played his banjo and how we sang

The beer was expensive but the laughter was free

How we all love to be beside the sea

Albert had a cousin called Marjorie

And I’d begun to notice she’d begun to notice me

I quickly decided if she didn’t mind it

I would spend the day in her glad company

We shared a plate of whelks walking side by side

I said she weren’t to old to take a donkey ride

But I didn’t mind when she laughed and said no

So we paused for a while and listened to a minstrel show

There was a notice on the Palace pier

It said there was to be a dance that night and it wasn’t dear

I explained of course that I could only waltz

And so we waltzed to every tune and air

Nine o’clock came round we had to take the charabanc

Albert was too drunk to play but still we sang

All except Marjorie I could tell at a glance

Because me and Albert were leaving for France

I said we’d both be home in a week or two

Me and Albert and Lord Kitchener were gonna teach the Hun a thing or two

I’m bound to return so for me do not yearn

And we will waltz together all our lives through

MAN OF THE WORLD
Shall I tell you about my life

They say I’m a man of the world

I’ve flown across every time

And I’ve seen lots of pretty girls

I guess I’ve got everything I need

I wouldn’t ask for more

And there’s no one I’d rather be

But I just wish I had never been born

And I need a good woman

To make me feel like a good man should

I don’t say I’m a good man

Or that I would be if I could

I could tell you about my life

And keep you amused I’m sure

About all the times I’ve cried

And how I don’t want to be sad any more

And how I wish I was in love
MARMOR, STEIN UND EISEN BRICHT
Weine nicht wenn der Regen fällt,

Damm-damm, damm-damm

Es gibt einen, der zu Dir hält

Damm-damm, damm-damm

Marmor, Stein und Eisen bricht

Aber unsere Liebe nicht

Alles, alles geht vorbei

Doch wir sind uns treu

Kann ich einmal nicht bei Dir sein

Damm-damm, damm-damm

Denk' daran, Du bist nicht allein

Damm-damm, damm-damm

Marmor, Stein und Eisen bricht

Aber unsere Liebe nicht

Alles, alles geht vorbei

Doch wir sind uns treu

Marmor, Stein und Eisen bricht

Aber unsere Liebe nicht

Alles, alles geht vorbei

Doch wir sind uns treu

Nimm den goldenen Ring von mir

Damm-damm, damm-damm

Bist Du traurig dann sagt er Dir

Damm-damm, damm-damm

Marmor, Stein und Eisen bricht

Aber unsere Liebe nicht

Alles, alles geht vorbei

Doch wir sind uns treu

Marmor, Stein und Eisen bricht

Aber unsere Liebe nicht

Alles, alles geht vorbei

Doch wir sind uns treu

Marmor, Stein und Eisen bricht

Ins Gras müß' 'mer beißen, ob's uns schmeckt oder nicht

Alles, alles, alles geht vorbei

MATTIE’S RAG
Oh Matti open up the door

That's right I'm home again

You've got a big surprise in store

Turn round and count to ten

Wait till you see what I've got you well

You'll say it's a magic thing

(Wait till you see it in motion)

Wind them up and you start to sing

I've been away for quite a while

And I wanna hear all your news

Speak to me let me see you smile

'Cause I've got those homesick blues

When I go down to the city

I just don't know wrong from right

When I come back to you Matti

You make me see the light

Love is a singular thing

It can take you up or bring you down

Yes love is a song that I sing

So come on now Matti listen to this sound

When you grow up we'll sit and talk

Of how things used to be

I'll be your (friend no matter what)

With all these memories

MATTY GROVES
A holiday a holiday and the first one of the year

Lord Donald’s wife went into the church the gospel for to hear

And when the meeting it was done she cast her eyes about

And there she saw little Matty Groves a walking in the crowd

Come home with me little Matty Groves come home with me tonight

Come home with me little Matty Groves and sleep with me ‘till light

Oh I can’t come home and I won’t come home and sleep with you tonight

By the rings on your finger I can see you are Lord Donald’s wife

Oh what if I am Lord Donald’s wife Lord Donald’s not at home

He is out in the far corn fields bringing the yearlings home

A servant who was standing by on hearing what was said

He swore Lord Donald he would know before the sun was set

And in his hurry to carry the news he bent his breast and he ran

And when he came to the broad mill stream he took off his shoes and swam

If this be false Lord Donald cried then hanged you shall be

But if this be true then half my lands I’ll freely give to thee

Little Matty Groves he lay down and took a little sleep

When he arose Lord Donald was standing at his feet

Saying how d’you like my feather bed and how d’you like my sheets

And how d’you like my lady fair that lies in your arms asleep

Oh ‘tis well I like your feather bed and well I like your sheets

But it’s better I like your lady who lies in my arms asleep

Well get up get up Lord Donald cried get up as quick as you can

It’ll never be said in all the land that I slew a naked man

Oh I can’t get up and I won’t get up and I can’t get up for my life

For you have two long beaten swords and I but a pocket knife

It’s true I’ve two long beaten swords and they cost me deep in the purse

But you shall have the better of them and I shall have the worst

And you shall strike the very first blow and strike it like a man

And I shall strike the very next blow and I’ll kill you if I can

So Matty struck the very first blow and it hurt Lord Donald sore

Lord Donald struck the very next blow and Matty struck no more

So then Lord Donald took his wife and he sat her on his knee

Saying who d’you like the best of us Matty Groves or me

And then up spoke his only wife never heard to speak so free

I’d rather a kiss from dead Matty’s lips than you and your finery

And then Lord Donald he got up and loudly he did bawl

He struck his wife through the heart and pinned her against the wall

A grave a grave Lord Donald cried to put these lovers in

But bury my lady on the top for she was of noble kin

MAXWELL'S SILVER HAMMER
Joan was quizzical, studied paraphysical

Science in the home.

Late night, all alone with the test-tube, oh, ohoh, oh.

Maxwell Edison, majoring in medicine,

Calls her on the phone.

Can I take you out to the pictures, Joan

But as she's getting ready to go,

A knock comes from the door.

Bang, bang, Maxwell's silver hammer came down on her head.

Clang, clang, Maxwell's silver hammer made sure that she was dead.

Back in school again, Maxwell plays the fool again.

Teacher gets annoyed,

Wishing to avoid an unpleasant scene.

She tells Max to stay, when the class has gone away,

So he waits behind.

Writing fifty times, I must not be so.

But when she turns her back to the boy,

He creeps up from behind.

Bang, bang, Maxwell's silver hammer came down on her head.

Clang, clang, Maxwell's silver hammer made sure that she was dead.

P.C. Thirty-one said: "We've caught a dirty one."

Maxwell stands alone.

Painting testimonial pictures, oh, ohoh, oh.

Rose and Valerie, screaming from the gallery,

Say he must go free.

The judge does not agree, and he tells them so.

But as the words are leaving his lips,

A noise comes from behind.

Bang, bang, Maxwell's silver hammer came down on her head.

Clang, clang, Maxwell's silver hammer made sure that she was dead.

MAYBELLINE
Oh Maybelline why can't you be true oh Maybelline why can't you be true

You've started back doing the things you used to do

As I was motoring over the hill

I saw Maybelline in a cool Hillile

Cadillac rolling on an open road

Nothing ought to run my vehicle

Cadillac doing about ninety five

A pumping up we're side by side

Oh Maybelline why can't you be true oh Maybelline why can't you be true

You've started back doing the things you used to do

Peeked in the mirror at the top of the hill

Just like swallowing a medicine pill

First thing I saw was that Cadillac grille

Doing one hundred and ten dropping over the that hill

A hock wheel curve a down hill stretch

Me and that cadillac neck and neck

Oh Maybelline why can't you be true oh Maybelline why can't you be true

You've started back doing the things you used to do

Oh Maybelline why can't you be true oh Maybelline why can't you be true

You've started back doing the things you used to do

Cadillac pulled up to one hundred and four

The Falcon got hot and wouldn't do no more

Jumpin’ Jack Flowery started to rain

Tooted my horn but I passed the name

Rain water blowing under my hood

But I knew that was doing my motor good

Oh Maybelline why can't you be true oh Maybelline why can't you be true

You've started back doing the things you used to do

The motor cooled down the heat went down

That's when I heard that highway sound

Cadillac sitting like a ton of lead

A hundred and ten a half a mile ahead

Cadillac looked like a steady steal

And I caught Maybelline at the top of the hill

Oh Maybelline why can't you be true oh Maybelline why can't you be true

You've started back doing the things you used to do

MEET ME ON THE CORNER
Hey Mr. dream seller where have you been

Tell me have you dreams I can see

I came along just to bring you this song

Can you spare one dream for me

You won’t have met me and you’ll soon forget

So don’t mind me tugging at your sleeve

I’m asking you if I can fix a rendezvous

For your dreams are all I believe

Meet me on the corner when the lights are coming on

And I’ll be there I promise I’ll be there

Tell me empty streets will disappear until the dawn

If you have dreams enough to share

Lay down your bundles of rags and reminders

And spread your wares on the ground

Well I’ve got time if you’re dealing round

I’m just hanging around

Meet me on the corner when the lights are coming on

And I’ll be there I promise I’ll be there

Tell me empty streets will disappear until the dawn

If you have dreams enough to share

Hey Mr. dream seller where have you been

Tell me have you dreams I can see

I came along just to bring you this song

Can you spare one dream for me

MEMPHIS TENNESSEE
Long distance information

Give me Memphis Tennessee

Help me find the party

Trying to get in touch with me

She would not leave her number

But I know whose place to call

My uncle took the message

And he wrote it on the wall

Last time I saw Marie

She was kissing me goodbye

With hurry home drops on her cheek

That trickled from her eye

We were torn apart because

Her mum did not agree

And broke apart our happy home

In Memphis Tennessee

Long distance information

More than that I cannot add

Only that I miss her

And all the fun we had

Help me find the number

Information please

She's the only one who'd call me here

From Memphis Tennessee

MIDNIGHT SPECIAL
Wake up early in the morning you hear the church bell ring

You go in a marching to the table you see the same old thing

Knife and fork upon the table nothing in the pan

But you’d better not complain boy

You’ll get trouble with the man
Let the midnight special shine a light on me

And let the midnight special shine a light on me

Let the midnight special shine a light on me

And let midnight special shine your ever loving light on me

If you ever go to Houston well you’d better walk right

And you’d better not stagger and you’d better not fight

‘Cause the sheriff will arrest you and his boys’ll pull you down

And they’re sure to find you guilty, you know you’re prison bound

Let the midnight special shine a light on me

And let the midnight special shine a light on me

Let the midnight special shine a light on me

And let the midnight special shine your ever loving light on me

Umbrella on her shoulder, piece of paper in her hand

Let the midnight special shine a light on me

And let the midnight special shine a light on me

Let the midnight special shine a light on me

And let the midnight special shine your ever loving light on me
