Gucci Crew II - Sally (That Girl)

Gucci Crew II - Sally (That Girl)

1, 2, 3
And I woke up early this morning and I went to the 5 and dime
I saw this pretty young lady that was real, real fine
I tapped her on the shoulder and said, “Mmm, mmm, excuse me, ma’am”
She pulled down her pants and said, “Splack these hands”
Whoa…oh…oh…oh…
Sally, that girl
Whoa…oh…oh…oh…
Sally, whew, that girl
So we walked her to her house, as she opened up the door
It was heart-shaped bed in the middle of the floor
She pushed me on the bed and this you can bet
In between her legs was real, real wet
So I grabbed her by her thighs and I moved up truly
She jumped off the bed and said, “Don’t touch my booty
Don’t touch my booty ‘cause I won’t touch you
Don’t touch my booty ‘cause it’s not the thing to do”
Whoa…oh…oh…oh…
Sally, whew, that girl
Whoa…oh…oh…oh…
Sally, whew, that girl
So we bailed out her house just to get something to eat
We saw her friend named Patty walkin’ down the street
Patty turned around as we yelled out her name
She dropped to her knee and began to sing
Whoa…oh…oh…oh…
Sally, whew, that girl
Whoa…oh…oh…oh…
Sally, whew, that girl
Sally is a girl that likes to play
And if you want some lovin’ Sally is okay
She has a different fellow every day of the week
Two or maybe three just to make it sweet
Sally wants a man she can call her own
And sixty-seven hundred she can call on the phone
Sally’s never tired and she’s never alone
All Sally wants is a fellow with a room
Whoa…oh…oh…oh…
Sally, whew, that girl
Whoa…oh…oh…oh…
Sally, whew, that girl
That-that-that-that-that girl
That-that-that-that-that-that-that girl
That-that-that-that-that-that-that-that-that-that-that-that-that-that girl (Sally)
That-that-that-that-that-that-that girl
That-that-that-that-that-that girl
That-that-that-that-that-that-that-that-that-that-that-that girl-that-that girl (Sally)
That-that girl-that girl-that girl-that girl [Sally] (Sally)[Sally]
That-that-that-that-that-that girl
That-that-that-that-that-that girl
That-that-that-that-that girl (Sally)
That-that-that-that-that girl (Sally)
That-that-that-that-that girl
That-that-that-that-that girl
Wait a second, get the party started
Gucci’s here to put the love in your body
That-that-that-that-that girl
That-that-that-that-that girl
That-that-that-that girl (Sally)
That-that-that-that-that girl (Sally)
That-that-that-that-that girl
That-that-that-that girl
That-that girl, that-that girl
That girl (Sally, Sally) [Sally]

Blue Oyster Cult - Burnin' For You

Home in the valley
Home in the city
Home isn't pretty
Ain't no home for me

Home in the darkness
Home on the highway
Home isn't my way
Home will never be

Burn out the day
Burn out the night
I can't see no reason to put up a fight
I'm living for giving the devil his due

And I'm burning, I'm burning, I'm burning for you
I'm burning, I'm burning, I'm burning for you

Time is the essence
Time is the season
Time ain't no reason
Got no time to slow

Time everlasting
Time to play besides
Time ain't on my side
Time I'll never know

Burn out the day
Burn out the night
I'm not the one to tell you what's wrong or what's right
I've seen signs of what (freezing their eyes) went through

Well I'm burning, I'm burning, I'm burning for you
I'm burning, I'm burning, I'm burning for you

Burn out the day
Burn out the night
I can't see no reason to put up a fight
I'm living for giving the devil his due

And I'm burning, I'm burning, I'm burning for you
I'm burning, I'm burning, I'm burning for you

Peter and the Wolf - Safe Travels

Ahhh
My brother dreaming of a new land
Where the rivers wind through the villages
And the people breathe so easily
All the region trees go the same way
Don't have to go
I know you know you know
But if you gotta go
Whoa-oh
Safe travels

My brother wander in the tall grass
It's ok to run we expect you back
Know how to climb a tree
I assume you do
I admit it
Man i'm not as sharp as you
Oh but i know
It's still a war down there
And if ya gotta go
Whoa-oh
Safe travels

Oh oh safe travels
Oh oh safe travels
Oh oh safe travels
Oh oh safe travels

the db's - Black and White

the db's - Black and White

I, I never would hurt you
But even if I did you
You never would tell me
Oh, we are finished
As of a long time ago
As of a long time ago
I stop

I don't enjoy you anymore
Well I guess I just don't enjoy you anymore
Well I guess it's all laid out in black and white
You don't like it at all

Love
Love is the answer
To no question
But thanks for
Oh, the suggestion
I know I don't care at all
Yeah, I know I don't know anything at all
But I stop

I don't enjoy you anymore

Well, I guess I just don't enjoy you anymore
Well, I guess it's all laid out in black and white
You don't like it at all
You don't like it at all
You don't like it at all
(In black and white)

The Chi-Lites - Have You Seen Her

The Chi-Lites - Have You Seen Her

One month ago today
I was happy as a lark
But now I go for walks
To the movies - maybe to the park

And have a seat on the same old bench
To watch the children play (huh)
You know, tomorrow is their future
But to me, just another day

They all gather around me
They seem to know my name
We laugh, tell a few jokes
But it still doesn't ease my pain

I know I can't hide from a memory
'Though day after day I've tried
I keep sayin' she'll be back
But today again I lied

Oh, I see her face everywhere I go
On the street, and even at the picture show
Have you seen her?
Tell me, have you seen her?

Oh, I hear her voice as the cold winds blow
In the sweet music on my radio
Have you seen her?
Tell me, have you seen her?

Why, oh, why
Did she have to leave and go away (oh, yeah)

Oh-oh-oh, I've been used to havin' someone to lean on
And I'm lost
Baby, I'm lost (Oh)

Oh, she left her kiss upon my lips
But left that break within my heart
Have you seen her?
Tell me, have you seen her?

Oh, I see her hand reaching out to me
Only she can set me free
Have you seen her?
Tell me, have you seen her?

As another day comes to an end
I'm lookin' for a letter or somethin'
Anything that she would send
With all the people I know
I'm still a lonely man
You know, it's funny
I thought I had her in the palm of my hand

Have you seen her
Tell me, have you seen her (tell me, have you seen her?)

The Shirelles - Mama Said

The Shirelles - Mama Said

Mama said there'll be days like this,
There'll be days like this Mama said
(Mama said, mama said)
Mama said there'll be days like this,
There'll be days like this my Mama said
(Mama said, mama said)

I went walking the other day,
Everything was going fine,
I met a little boy named Billy Joe
And then I almost lost my mind

Mama said there'll be days like this,
There'll be days like this Mama said
(Mama said, mama said)
Mama said there'll be days like this,
There'll be days like this my Mama said

My eyes are wide open
But all that I can see is,
Chapel bells are callin for everyone but-a me
But I don't worry 'cause

Mama said there'll be days like this,
There'll be days like this Mama said
(Mama said, mama said)
Mama said there'll be days like this,
There'll be days like this my Mama said

And then she said someone will look at me
Like I'm looking at you one day,
Then I might find
I don't want it any old way,
So I don't worry 'cause

Mama said there'll be days like this,
There'll be days like this Mama said
(Mama said, mama said)
Mama said there'll be days like this,
There'll be days like this my Mama said
Mama said, mama said
Hey! Don't you worry,
Mama said mama said
Hey! Don't you worry now.
Mama said mama said,
Hey! Hey!
