I don't have a lot, but with me that's fine
Whatever I got, well, I know it's mine
I don't go around with the local crowd
I don't dig what's in so I guess I'm out
I'm saying these things
So you know me, baby
So, you understand what I'm all about

The boat that I row won't cross no ocean
The boat that I row won't get me there soon
But I got the love and if you got the notion
The boat that I row's big enough for two
Just me and you

Michael row the boat ashore, hallelujah
Michael row the boat ashore, hallelujah
Michael row the boat ashore, hallelujah
Michael row the boat ashore, hallelujah
This old world's a mighty big place, hallelujah
It's got satan all over its face, hallelujah
Jordan's river is chilly and cold, hallelujah
But it warms the human soul, hallelujah
So, Michael row the boat ashore, hallelujah
Michael row the boat ashore, hallelujah
Michael row the boat ashore, hallelujah
Michael row that boat ashore, hallelujah

You and me together make a dream team
You should rock my jersey, number 23
You make me feel on top of the world, like I'm balling
I love you like a fresh pair of Jordans
And all them other girls, they don't really know me
I be on my M.J., winning like I'm Kobe
Top of the world, like I'm balling
I love you like a fresh pair of Jordans

These bitches want Nikes
They looking for a check
Tell 'em it ain’t likely
Said she need a ring like Carmelo
It must be on that white like Othello
All you want is Nikes
But the real ones
Just like you
Just like me

On the day that you were born the angels got together.
 And decided to create a dream come true.
 So, they sprinkled moon dust in your hair of gold
 And star-light in your eyes of blue.
 That is why all the girls in town follow you all around.
 Just like me, they long to be close to you

I've waited hours for this
I've made myself so sick
I wish I'd stayed asleep today
I never thought this day would end
I never thought tonight could ever be
This close to me

When day is done
And shadows fall
I dream of you!
When day is done
I think of all
The joys we knew!
That yearning, returning,
To hold you in my arms,
Won't go love, I know love,
Without you, night has lost it's charms!

When the night has come
And the land is dark
And the moon is the only light we'll see
No I won't be afraid
Oh, I won't be afraid
Just as long as you stand, stand by me

We were sailing along on Moonlight Bay
We could hear the voices ringing
They seemed to say
"You have stolen her heart"
"Now don't go 'way"
As we sang love's old sweet song on Moonlight Bay.

And Gillian'll meet me like a brother would
I think I remember but it's twice as good
Like how cool the rum is from his silver tray
I thirst to be thirsty in Montego Bay

The road is long
 With many a winding turn
 That leads us to who knows where
 Who knows when
 But I'm strong
 Strong enough to carry him
 He ain't heavy, he's my brother

Dear, love is a burning fire
Stay, 'cause then the flames grow higher
Babe, don't let him steal your heart
It's easy, easy
Girl, this game can't last forever
Why we cannot live together
Try, don't let him take your love from me

You're no good, can't you see Brother Louie, Louie, Louie
I'm in love, set her free
Oh, she's only looking to me
Only love breaks her heart Brother Louie, Louie, Louie
Only love's paradise
Oh, she's only looking to me

She was black as the night
Louie was whiter than white
Danger, danger when you taste brown sugar
Louie fell in love over night
Hey man, what's wrong with that?

Nothing bad, it was good
Louie had the best girl he could
When she took him home to meet her mama and papa
Louie knew just where he stood

Louie, Louie, Louie
Louie, Louie, Louie
Louie, Louie, Louie
Louie, you're gonna cry

Meet me in St. Louis, Louis
Meet me at the fair
Don't tell me the lights are shining
Any place but there

We will dance the Hoochee Koochee
I will be your tootsie wootsie
If you will meet in St. Louis, Louis
Meet me at the fair

Driving down an endless road
Takin' friends or moving alone
Pleasure at the fairground on the way

It's always friends that feel so good
Let's make amends like all good men should
Pleasure at the fairground on the way

Walk around, be free and roam
There's always someone leaving alone
Pleasure at the fairground on the way

When I get to the bottom
I go back to the top of the slide
An' I stop, an' I turn, an' I go for a ride
Til I get to the bottom
An' I see you again
Yeh
Do you, don't you, want me to love you?
I'm comin' down fast, but I'm miles above you
Tell me, tell me, tell me
Come on, tell me the answer
Well, you may be a lover but you ain't no dancer
Lookout

Helter Skelter

Red lobby, blue lobby, red lobby, blue lobby
Swings to the left, swings to the right
Till there's a balance, a balance of might, 'cos it
It filters down from the top to the bottom
You mightn't like it but you can't seem to stop 'em
It filters down from the top to the bottom
You mightn't like it but you can't seem to stop 'em

red and yellow and pink and green
orange and purple and blue
I can sing a rainbow
sing a rainbow
sing a rainbow too

listen with your eyes
listen with your eyes
and sing everything you see
you can sing a rainbow
sing a rainbow
sing along with me

You with the sad eyes
don't be discouraged, though I realize it's hard to
take courage in a world, full of people
you can lose sight of it
And the darkness inside you
will make you feel so small
But I see your true colors, shining through
I see your true colors, and that's why I love you

Try to remember the magic that we shared
In time your broken heart will mend
I never used you, you knew I really cared
I hate to sit and defend, but it's over

Sad eyes, turn the other way
I don't want to see you cry
Sad eyes, you knew there'd come a day
When we would have to say goodbye

My eyes adored you
Though I never laid a hand on you
My eyes adored you
Like a million miles away
From me you couldn't see
How I adored you
So close, so close
And yet so far away

Oh Robbie, Frankie Valli - this is one of those songs that takes me back to a very identifiable point and place in time. In this instance a school called Morley Place in Conisborough, South Yorkshire - sitting on a bus just outside the school in 1975.

Oh ok - another one with a specific memory:

So far away
Doesn't anybody stay in one place any more?
It would be so fine to see your face at my door
It doesn't help to know you're just time away
Long ago I reached for you and there you stood
Holding you again could only do me good
Oh how I wish I could but you're so far away

One more song about moving along the highway
Can't say much of anything that's new
If I could only work this life out my way
I'd rather spend it being close to you

Life is a highway
I want to ride it all night long
If you are going my way
I want to drive it all night long


Through all these cities and all these towns
It is in my blood and it is all around
I love you now like I loved you then
This is the road and these are the hands
From Mozambique to those Memphis nights
The Khyber Pass to Vancouver's lights
