BERRY RIDES AGAIN
Well thinking of my schooldays I remember Maybelline
I used to dance with her all night she was a little sweet sixteen
Her brother used to chase me he thought I did but I never could
I used to call him little queenie his name was Johnny B Goode
I used to hold her 'till I was older
Then I got bolder her brother used to scold her
I left her in the morning went back to Memphis Tennessee
You know her father never found me and that's all right with me
You know I went to New York city to find what could be found
Just for kicks style sixty six stomping outta town
Yes I went to California just to see what I could see
Well nobody knew just where I was and that's all right with me
You know I met a girl named Carol and her girlfriend sweet Nadine
Played rock and roll music used to kiss me in between
Roll over Beethoven that had to be my favourite song
But we never did much rolling I didn't stay there long
I used to hold her and try to mould her
Somebody told her Nadine and I were bolder
I left her in the morning went back to Memphis Tennessee
You know I never saw her face again and that's all right with me
I used to hold her and try to mould her
Somebody told her Nadine and I were bolder
I left her in the morning went back to Memphis Tennessee
You know I never saw her face again and that's all right with me
THE BEST OF MY LOVE
Every night I’m lying in bed
Holding you close in my dreams
Thinking about all the things that we said
And coming apart at the seams
We try to talk it over
But the words come out too rough
I know you were trying
To give me the best of your love
Beautiful faces and loud empty places
Look at the way that we live
Wasting our time on cheap talk and wine
Left us so little to give
The same old crowd was like a cold dark cloud
That we could never rise above
But here in my heart
I give you the best of my love
Oh, sweet darling you get the best of my love
Oh, sweet darling you get the best of my love
I’m going back in time and it’s a sweet dream
It was a quiet night and I would be all right
If I could go on sleeping
But every morning I wake up and worry
What’s gonna happen today
You see it your way, and I see it mine
But we both see it slipping away
You know we always had each other baby
I guess that wasn’t enough, oh
Oh, sweet darling you get the best of my love
Oh, sweet darling every night and day
You get the best of my love
BETTY BAPS THE BUXOM BARMAID
Now there’s a little ale house in the middle of our town
It’s sleazy and it’s grotty and they ought to pull it down
The food is always awful and the beer is always flat
But they’ve got one attraction that makes up for all that
The place is always crowded fellers come from near and far
By bus by train by bicycle by motorbike and car
To try and catch a glimpse of what is stood behind the bar
It’s Betty Baps the buxom barmaid
One day into our bar a Yankee film producer came
When he saw Betty’s bazookas he said crikey what a dame
You could be a megastar now what d’you think of that
And on the wide screen cinerama you could really knock them flat
Just sign this piece of paper and come across the sea
You’ll be bigger than Brigitte Bardot from the bits that I can see
Oh no said Betty, Brigitte’s only half as big as me
I’m Betty Baps the buxom barmaid
The navy came to see her once and said Betty dear we hope
You will launch our brand new warship with a bottle on a rope
We’ve a model of your bust in front, the enemy to scare
So we’re going to call it after you we think it’s only fair
But a splinter from the bottle caught the bodice of her gown
As she rapidly deflated, said the captain with a frown
All hands to the pumps my lads, me vessels going down
So’s Betty Baps the buxom barmaid
But a little boy scout standing by said “I have come prepared”
And with patches from his cycle bag her bosom he repaired
Then with his cycle pump her proportions he proceeded to restore
But when he had finished she was even larger than before
Now although we know that Betty isn’t everything she seems
We’re still by the bar indulging in our fantasies and dreams
Surrounded by the noise of Levi’s bursting at the seams
For Betty Baps the buxom barmaid
BIG BAD BILL IS SWEET WILLIAM NOW
In the town called Louisville
They got a man they call Big Bad Bill
I wanna tell you he sure was tough
And he certainly did strut his stuff
He had the folks all scared to death
When he walked by they all held their breath
He was the fightingest man sure enough
Then Bill took himself a wife
Now he leads a different life
‘Cause
Big Bad Bill is sweet William now
Married life has changed him somehow
He’s the man that they all used to fear
Now the people call him sweet papa Willy dear
Stronger than Samson I declare
‘Till a brown skinned woman went and bobbed his hair
Big Bad Bill don’t fight anymore
He washes dishes and he mops up that floor
Well he used to spend his evenings looking for a fight
But now he’s got to see his mamma every night
Big Bad Bill is sweet William now
Yes Big Bad Bill is sweet William now
Big Bad Bill is sweet William now
Married life has changed him somehow
He’s the man that they all used to fear
Now the people call him sweet papa Willy dear
Stronger than Samson I declare
‘Till a brown skinned woman went and bobbed his hair
Big Bad Bill don’t fight anymore
He washes dishes and he mops up that floor
Well he used to spend his evenings looking for a fight
But now he’s got to see his mamma every night
Big Bad Bill is sweet William now
Yes Big Bad Bill is sweet William now

Oh the clubs’ll make you wonder so don’t make that mistake

Spades are made for digging lads and hearts’ll only break
Looking for black diamonds a mile beneath the ground
And it’s way down black diamonds to be found

And it’s way down black diamonds to be found
Shining in the lamplight a mile beneath the ground

Looking for black diamonds a mile beneath the ground
And it’s way down black diamonds to be found
Down in the darkness that’s where we abound
And it’s way down black diamonds to be found

BLACK IS BLACK
Black is black I want my baby back
It’s grey it’s grey since she went away oh ho
What can I do ‘cause I__ I’m feeling blue
If I had my way she’d be back today
But she don’t intend to see me again
What can I do ‘cause I__ I’m feeling blue
I can’t choose it’s too much to lose
My love’s too strong
Maybe if she would come back to me
Then it can’t go wrong
Bad is bad that’s why I feel so sad
It’s time it’s time that I found peace of mind
What can I do ‘cause I__ I’m feeling blue
I can’t choose it’s too much to lose
My love’s too strong
Maybe if she would come back to me
Then it can’t go wrong
BLACK MAGIC WOMAN

BLACK VELVET BAND
As I went walking down Broadway not intending to stay very long
I met with a frolicsome damsel as she came tripping along
A watch she pulled out of her pocket and slipped it right into my hand
On the very first day that I met her bad luck to the black velvet band
And her eyes they shone like diamonds
I thought her the queen of the land
And her hair hung over her shoulders
Tied up with a black velvet band
‘Twas in the town of Tralee an apprentice to trade I was bound
With plenty of bright amusement to see the days go round
Till misfortune and trouble came over me which caused me to stray from my land
Far away from my friends and relations to follow the black velvet band
And her eyes they shone like diamonds
I thought her the queen of the land
And her hair hung over her shoulders
Tied up with a black velvet band
Before the judge and the jury the both of us had to appear
And the gentleman swore to the jewellery the case against us was clear
For seven years transportation right unto Van Diemens Land
Far away from my friends and relations to follow the black velvet band
And her eyes they shone like diamonds
I thought her the queen of the land
And her hair hung over her shoulders
Tied up with a black velvet band
Oh come all you brave young Irish lads a warning take by me
Beware of the pretty young damsels that are knocking around in Tralee
They’ll treat you to whiskey and porter until you’re unable to stand
And before you have time for to leave them you’re off unto Van Diemen’s Land
And her eyes they shone like diamonds
I thought her the queen of the land
And her hair hung over her shoulders
Tied up with a black velvet band
BLINDED BY THE LIGHT
Blinded by the light record like a deuce another runner in the night
Blinded by the light record like a deuce another runner in the night
Madman drummers bummers and Indians
In the summer with a teenage diplomat
In the dumps with the mumps
As the adolescent pumps his way into his hat
With a boulder on my shoulder feelin’ kinda older
I tripped the merry go round
With this very unpleasing sneezing and wheezing
This calliope crashed to the ground
Blinded by the light record like a deuce another runner in the night
Blinded by the light record like a deuce another runner in the night
Some silicone sister with her manager’s mister
Told me I got what it takes
She said I’ll turn you on sonny to something strong
If you play that song with the funky break
A go cart Mozart was checking out the weather chart
To see if it was safe to go outside
And little Early Pearly came by in her curly wurly
And asked me if I needed a ride
Blinded by the light record like a deuce another runner in the night
Blinded by the light record like a deuce another runner in the night
Blinded by the light record like a deuce another runner in the night
Blinded by the light record like a deuce another runner in the night
BLOODY WELL RIGHT
So you think your schooling's phoney
I guess it's hard not to agree
You say it all depends on money
And who is in your family tree

And in the meantime hush your face
Right right you're bloody well right
You've got a bloody right to say
Right you're bloody well right
You know you've got a right to say
Ha ha you're bloody well right
You know you've got a right to say

You've got a bloody right to say
You've got a bloody right to say
You've got a bloody right to say
You've got a bloody right to say
BLOWIN' IN THE WIND
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
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
How many years can a mountain exist
Before it's washed to the sea
How many years can some people exist
Before they're allowed to be free
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
How many ears must one man have
Before he can hear people cry
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
BLUE COAT MAN
Well the house was rocking
And we were having fun
The house was rocking
And we were having fun
Till that blue coat man
Walked in with that big gun
You know I got scared
And my baby she broke and run
I got scared
And my baby she broke and run
She knocked over that whisky jug
Don’t you know I didn’t get none
Well they’ve taken us to jail
But they let my baby go free
They’ve taken us to jail
But they let my baby go free
‘Cause I took the blame
And my gal paid the fine for me
Well they’ve taken us to jail
But they let my baby go free
They’ve taken us to jail
But they let my baby go free
‘Cause I took the blame
And my gal paid the fine for me
Now me and my baby
We’re gonna take a long long ride
Me and my baby
We’re gonna take a long long ride
She got me out of that jail
Don’t you know that I’m satisfied

BOAT ON THE RIVER
Take me back to my boat on the river
I need to go down, I need to come down
Take me back to my boat on the river
And I won't cry out anymore
Time stands still as I gaze in her water
She eases me down, touching me gently
With the waters that flow past my boat on the river
So I don't cry out anymore
Oh, the river is wide
The river it touches my life like the waves on the sand
And all roads lead to tranquillity base
Where the frown on my face disappears
Take me down to my boat on the river
And I won't cry out anymore
Oh, the river is deep
The river it touches my life like the waves on the sand
And all roads lead to tranquillity base
Where the frown on my face disappears
Take me down to my boat on the river
I need to go down, won't you let me go down
Take me back to my boat on the river
And I won't cry out anymore
And I won't cry out anymore
And I won't cry out anymore
BOHEMIAN RHAPSODY
Is this the real life, is this just fantasy ?
Caught in a landslide, no escape from reality.
Open your eyes, look up to the skies and see,
I’m just a poor boy, I need no sympathy,
Because I’m easy come, easy go, little high, little low,
Any way the wind blows doesn’t really matter to me, to me,
Mama, just killed a man,
Put a gun against his head,
Pulled my trigger now he’s dead.
Mama, life had just begun,
But now I’ve gone and thrown it all away.
Mama, ooh, didn’t mean to make you cry,
If I’m not back again this time tomorrow,
Carry on, carry on, as if nothing really matters.
Too late, my time has come,
Sends shivers down my spine,
Body’s aching all the time,
Goodbye everybody, I’ve got to go,
Gotta leave you all behind and face the truth.
Mama, ooh, I don’t want to die,
I sometimes wish I’d never been born at all.
I see a little silhouetto of a man,
Scaramouche, Scaramouche, will you do the Fandango,
Thunderbolt and lightning, very very frightening me,
Galileo, Galileo, Galileo, Galileo, Galileo, Figaro, magnifico.
I’m just a poor boy, nobody loves me,
He’s just a poor boy from a poor family,
Spare him his life from this monstrosity.
Easy come, easy go, will you let me go.
Bismillah, no, we will not let you go, let him go,
Bismillah, we will not let you go, let him go,
Bismillah, we will not let you go, let me go,
Will not let you go, let me go,
Will not let you go, let me go, ah, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,
Oh mama mia, mama mia, mama mia let me go,
Beelzebub has a devil put aside for me, for me, for me.
So you think you can stop me and spit in my eye,
So you think you can love me and leave me to die,
Oh, baby, can’t do this to me baby,
Just gotta get out, just gotta get right out of here.
Nothing really matters, anyone can see, nothing really mattered, nothing really matters, to me.
Any way the wind blows.
BONNY LIGHT HORSEMAN
Ye maidens and widows I pray give attention
Unto these few lines I’m going to mention
Here’s a maid in distraction she’s now going to wander
She relies on King George for the loss of hew lover
Broken hearted I’ll wander for the loss of my lover
He’s my bonny light horseman in the wars he was slain
Three long years and six months since he left England’s shore
My bonny light horseman I’ll see him no more
When he’s mounted on horseback so gallant and brave
And among all the soldiers respected he was
Broken hearted I’ll wander for the loss of my lover
He’s my bonny light horseman in the wars he was slain
See how she laments for the loss of her mate
Oh where shall I wander my true love she says
There’s no mortal breathing my favour shall gain
Since my bonny light horseman in the wars he was slain
Broken hearted I’ll wander for the loss of my lover
He’s my bonny light horseman in the wars he was slain
If I was an eagle in the air I would fly
Till I came to the field where my true love does lie
And with these fond wings I’d spread over his grave
And kiss the dead lips that lie cold in the clay
Broken hearted I’ll wander for the loss of my lover
He’s my bonny light horseman in the wars he was slain
When Boney commanded his troops for to stand
And bow to the banners so gay and so grand
He fixed up his cannons the victory to gain
And my bonny light horseman in the wars he was slain
Broken hearted I’ll wander for the loss of my lover
He’s my bonny light horseman in the wars he was slain
