Lyrics:
Eighteen yellow roses came today
Eighteen yellow roses in a pretty bouquet
When the boy came to the door
I didn't know what to say
But, eighteen yellow roses came today.
I opened up the card to see what it said
I couldn't believe my eyes
When I had read
Though you belong to another I love you anyway
Yes, eighteen yellow roses came today.
I never doubted your love for a minute
I always thought that you would be true
But now this box and the flowers in it
I guess there's nothin' left for me to do.
But ask to meet the boy that's done this thing
And find out if he's got plans to buy you a ring
'cause eighteen yellow roses
Will wilt and die one day
But... a father's love will never fade away
Will never fade away

Lyrics:
Well, I've got two lovers and I ain't ashamed
Two lovers and I love them both the same
Let me tell you 'bout my first lover
He's sweet and kind and he's mine all mine
He treats me good like a lover should
And makes me love him
I really, really love him, oh I love him so
And I'll do everything I can to let him know
But I've got two lovers and I ain't ashamed
Two lovers and I love them both the same
Let me tell you 'bout my other lover
Well, you know, he treats me bad, makes me sad
Makes me cry but still I can't deny
That I love him, I really, really love him, oh I love him so
And I'll do everything I can to let him know
Darlin', well, don't you know I can tell
Whenever I look at you that you think that I'm untrue?
'Cause I say that I love two but I really, really do
'Cause you're a split personality
And in reality, both of them are you, baby
Well, I've got two lovers and I ain't ashamed
Two lovers and I love them both the same
Two lovers and I ain't ashamed

On Broadway Written by: Barry Mann, Cynthia Weil, Jerry Leiber, Mike Stoller Originally written by: Barry Mann, Cynthia Weil Adapted from: On Broadway written by Barry Mann, Cynthia Weil Comments:
Barry Mann and Cynthia Weil participated in the adaptation of their
original work with Leiber and Stoller. Mann and Weil had pitched it to
Leiber and Stoller for performance by The Drifters. The more experienced
songwriting pair were interested in the song if certain changes were
made and told Mann and Weil they could all rewrite it together or Mann
and Weil could leave, rework it and bring it back. Mann and Weil were
thrilled to work with Leiber and Stoller and opted to rewrite it with
them.
Lyrics:
I hear the neon lights are bright
on Broadway
I hear that dreams come true there everyday
I hear there life don't get you down
The way it get you in this small town
Sware I'm gonna get me there someway
See the girls are just real fine
on broadway
They say they're make of things you can't buy
They say that you can be someone
And It don't matter where you come from
Sware I gotta get there or I'll die
Sware I gotta get there or I'll die

Lyrics:
They say the neon lights are bright on Broadway
(On Broadway)
They say there's always magic in the air
(On Broadway)
But when you're walking down the street
And you ain't had enough to eat
The glitter rubs right off, and you're nowhere
(On Broadway)
They say the girls are something else, on Broadway
(On Broadway)
But looking at them just gives me the blues
(On Broadway)
But how're ya gonna make some time
When all you got is one thin dime?
And one thin dime won't even shine your shoes
(On Broadway)
They say that I won't last too long on Broadway
(On Broadway)
I'll catch a greyhound bus for home, they all say
(On Broadway)
But oh, yeah they're wrong, I know they are
'Cause I can play this here guitar
And I won't quit till I'm a star on Broadway
(On Broadway)
But oh, yeah they're wrong, I know they are
'Cause I can play this here guitar
And I won't quit till I'm a star on Broadway
(On Broadway)
On Broadway
(On Broadway)
I'm gonna make it, yeah
(On Broadway)
I'll be a big, big, big man
(On Broadway)
I'll have my name in lights
(On Broadway)
Everybody, everybody's gonna know me, yeah
(On Broadway)
Ohh, up and down Broadway
(On Broadway)
Ohh

Lyrics:
We pledged our love to each other
We know that our love will last
Paula, I give you my heart
Yours in return's all I ask
We've waited so long for this moment
Tomorrow is our special day
I'll take you, Paul, & you only
Here in my heart you will stay
So good luck to Paul & Paula
Good luck, young lovers everywhere
If your love is strong, then you can't go wrong
True love will find a way
Paula, I give you my heart
Paul, I've been waiting for you
Good luck to Paul & Paula
Good luck, young lovers everywhere
If your love is strong, then you can't go wrong
Good luck, young lovers, tonight
Good luck, young lovers everywhere
Lyrics:
I don't like you
But I love you
See that I'm always
Thinking of you
Oh, oh, oh,
You treat me badly
I love you madly
You've really got a hold on me
You've really got a hold on me, baby
I don't want you,
But I need you
Don't want to kiss you
But I need you
Oh, oh, oh
You do me wrong now
My love is strong now
You've really got a hold on me
You've really got a hold on me, baby
I love you and all I want you to do
Is just hold me, hold me, hold me, hold me
I want to leave you
Don't want to stay here
Don't want to spend
Another day here
Oh, oh, oh, I want to split now
I just can quit now
You've really got a hold on me
You've really got a hold on me, baby
I love you and all I want you to do
Is just hold me, hold me, hold me, hold me
You've really got a hold on me
You've really got a hold on me

Lyrics: You look like an angel Walk like an angel Talk like an angel But I got wise You're the devil in disguise Oh yes you are The devil in disguise
You fooled me with your kisses
You cheated and you schemed
Heaven knows how you lied to me
You're not the way you seemed
I thought that I was in heaven
But I was sure surprised
Heaven help me, I didn't see
The devil in your eyes

Lyrics:
You're the reason I'm livin'
You're the breath that I take
You're the stars in my heaven
You're the sun when I wake
You're the reason I'm livin'
You carry me through
All the life's little burdens
I'd be lost without you
A long, long time ago
When I was down
Oh, You picked me up
And showed me
True love still could be found
You're the reason I do things
You're the things that I do
You're the reason I'm livin'
I'd be lost without you
Come on and tell me again
You're the reason I'm livin'
Whoa, will you carry me through?
All of life's little burdens
I'd be lost without you
(You're the reason I'm livin')
Lyrics:
You don't have to be a baby to cry
All you need is for love to go wrong
You don't have to be a baby to cry
Or to lie awake the whole night long
When you leave me my golden rainbow disappears And you leave me a broken heart that's full of tears
These ain't raindrops in my eyes, why should I lie You don't have to be a baby to cry

Lyrics:
Hey pretty baby! (you can't sit down)
A don't you hear the drummer thumpin' (you can't sit down)
You gotta shake it like a crazy (you can't sit down)
Because the band is sayin' something (you can't sit down)
And everybody is a jumpin'(you can't sit down)
You gotta slop, bop, flip flop, hip hop
Never stop
(You can't sit down, you can't sit down)
You gotta move, move, move, a round and round (You can't sit down, you can't sit down) You gotta fly, fly, fly, way off the ground You're puttin down, a crazy, shout No, no, you can't sit down, no, no, you can't sit down
When you're on South Street (you can't sit down)
And the band is really bootin' (you can't sit down)
You hear the hip beat with the back beat (you can't sit down)
And you see the gang a groovin' (you can't sit down)
You gotta get your bottom movin' (you can't sit down)
You gotta make it, break it, shake it all around
(You can't sit down, you can't sit down)
A, yea, yea, yea, hey pretty baby
You know you really dance so fine now
You're really shakin' like a crazy
A don't you down lead the line now
We're gonna do it one more time now
You gotta slop, bop, flip flop, hip hop
Never stop
(You can't sit down, you can't sit down)
You gotta move, move, move, a round and round
(You can't sit down, you can't sit down)
You gotta fly, fly, fly, way off the ground
You're puttin down, a crazy, shout
(You can't sit down, you can't sit down)

Lyrics:
Sometimes we walk hand in hand by the sea
And we breathe in the cool salty air
You turn to me with a kiss in your eyes
And my heart feels a thrill beyond compare
Then your lips cling to mine
It's wonderful, wonderful
Oh, so wonderful, my love
Sometimes we stand on the top of a hill
And we gaze at the earth and the sky
I turn to you and you melt in my arms
There we are, darling, only you and I
What a moment to share
It's wonderful, wonderful
Oh, so wonderful, my love
This world is full of wondrous things it's true
But they wouldn't have much meaning without you
Some quiet evening I sit by your side
And were lost in a world of our own
I feel the glow of your unspoken love
I'm aware of the treasure that I own
And I say to myself
It's wonderful, wonderful
Oh, so wonderful, my love
And I say to myself
It's wonderful, wonderful
Oh, so wonderful, my love

Lyrics:
Mary Mack dressed in black
Silver buttons all down her back
Hello tipsy toes
She broke the needle and she can't sew
Walking the dog Just a walking the dog If you don't know how to do it I'll show you how to walk the dog Come on now, come on, come on
I asked her mother for fifteen cents
To see the elephant jump over the fence
He jumped so high, he touched the sky
Never got back till the fourth of July
Mary, Mary, quite contrary
Tell me, how does your garden grow?
You got silver bells and you got cockleshells
Pretty maids all in a row
Walking the dog
Just a walking the dog
If you don't know how to do it
Show you how to walk the dog
Come on now, come on, come on
Oh oh, just a, just a, just a walking
Just a, just a, just a walking
Just a, just a, just a walking
Oh yeah, if you don't know how to do it
I'll show you how to walk the dog, oh
Just a, just a, just a, just a, just a, just a walking
Just a, just a, just a, just a, just a, just a walking, oh
