Me, Myself & I
03:37
|

Me, myself and I
Are all in love with you
We all think you're wonderful
We do
Me, myself and I
Have just one point of view
We're convinced
There's no one else like you
It can't be denied dear
You brought the sun to us
We'd be satisfied dear
If you, you'd belong to one of us
So if you pass me by
Three hearts will break in two
'Cause me, myself and I
Are all in love with you

All that meat and no potatoes
Just ain't right, like green tomatoes.
Here I'm waiting, palpitatin',
For all that meat and no potatoes.
All that meat and no potatoes
All that food to the alligators, yes.
Hold me steady. I am ready
For all that meat and no potatoes.
I don't think that peas are bad.
With meat most anything goes.
I look into the pot. I'm fit to fight
'Cause, boy, you know that mess ain't right.
All that meat and no potatoes
Just ain't right, like green tomatoes.
Woman, I'm steamin'. I'm really screamin'
All that meat and no potatoes.

Mairzy Doats
02:48
|
|||
I know a ditty nutty as a fruitcake
Goofy as a goon and silly as a loon
Some call it pretty, others call it crazy
But they all sing this tune:
Mairzy doats and dozy doats and liddle lamzy divey
A kiddley divey too, wouldn't you?
Yes! Mairzy doats and dozy doats and liddle lamzy divey
A kiddley divey too, wouldn't you?
If the words sound queer and funny to your ear, a little bit jumbled and jivey
Sing "Mares eat oats and does eat oats and little lambs eat ivy"
Oh! Mairzy doats and dozy doats and liddle lamzy divey
A kiddley divey too, wouldn't you-oo?
A kiddley divey too, wouldn't you?

Loafin' Time
05:53
|
|||
Loafin' time, I can't do a thing
Summertime just brings me down
Diamonds on a lazy stream
All I want to do is dream
ILoafin' time, by a swimmin' hole
With my fishin' pole I found
All the world's a happy rhyme, yas
Happy 'cause it's loafin' time
I just love this lazy way of livin'
Don't you know that doin' nothin' ain't no sin
If it is, I hope that I'm forgiven
'Cause I got nothin' to do,
And I got all day to do it in.
So I'm takin' my time because it's
Loafin' time, I'm the happy one
I'm following the sun around around around around
I'm content as long as I'm,
Loafin' 'round at loafin' time

A buzzard took the monkey for a ride in the air
The monkey thought that ev'rything was on the square
The buzzard tried to throw the monkey off his back
But the monkey grabbed his neck and said, now, listen, Jack
Straighten up and fly right
Straighten up and fly right
Straighten up and fly right
Cool down papa, don't you blow your top
Ain't no use in divin', what's the use of jivin'
Straighten up and fly right
Cool down papa, don't you blow your top
The buzzard told the monkey, you're choking me
Release your hold and I'll set you free
The monkey looked the buzzard right dead in the eye and said
Your story's touching, but is sounds like a lie
Straighten up and fly right
Straighten up and stay right
Straighten up and fly right
Cool down papa, don't you blow your top
Straighten up and fly right
Straighten up and stay right
Straighten up and fly right
Cool down papa, don't you blow your top
Fly right

Stars Fell on Alabama
05:04
|
|||
We lived our little drama, we kissed in a field of white
And stars fell on Alabama last night
I can't forget the glamor, your eyes held a tender light
And stars fell on Alabama last night
I never planned in my imagination a situation so heavenly
A fairy land where no one else could enter
And in the center just you and me, dear
My heart beat like a hammer, my arms wound around you tight
And stars fell on Alabama last night

Spinach Song
03:07
|
|||
Spinach has vitamin A, B and D
But spinach never appealed to me
But one day while having dinner with a guy
I decided to give it a try
I didn't like it the first time
It was so new to me
I didn't like it the first time
I was so young, you see
I used to run away from the stuff
But now somehow I can't get enough
I didn't like it the first time
Oh, how it grew on me!
I didn't like it the first time
I had it on a date
Although the first was the worst time
Right now I think it's great
Somehow, it's always hittin' the spot
Especially when they bring it in hot
I didn't like it the first time
But oh, how it grew on me
I didn't like it the first time
I thought it was so strange
I wasn't getting much younger
So, I just made the change
No longer is the stuff on the shelf
'Cause now I make a bigger myself
I didn't like it the first time
But oh how it grew on me
I didn't like it the first time
When I was just sixteen
I didn't like it the first time
Guess I was mind and green
But I've stepped up
'Cause I've gotten wise
I've got enough for two dozen guys
I didn't like it the first time
But oh how it grew on me

Exactly Like You
02:53
|
|||
I know why I waited
Know why I've been blue
I've been waiting each day
For someone exactly like you
Why should I spend some money
On a show or two
When nobody sings these love songs
Exactly like you
You make me feel so grand
I wanna give this world to you
You make me understand
These foolish little dreams I'm dreaming
And schemes I'm scheming
Now I know why my mama
She taught me to be true
She knew just around the corner
Was somebody like you

Sunny Side of the Street
04:30
|
|||
Grab your coat and get your hat
Leave your worry on the doorstep
Just direct your feet
To the sunny side of the street
Can't you hear a pitter-pat?
And that happy tune is your step
Life can be so sweet
On the sunny side of the street
I used to walk in the shade
With those blues on parade
But I'm not afraid
This Rover crossed over
If I never have a cent
I'd be rich as Rockefeller
Gold dust at my feet
On the sunny side of the street
Grab your street
