Now & Then

Good-bye Joe, he gotta go, me oh my oh
He gotta go-pole the pirogue down the bayou
His Yvonne the sweetest one, me oh my oh
Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou

Thibodaux, Fontaineaux the place is buzzin'
A Kin-folk come to see Yvonne by the dozen
Dress in style the go hog wild, me oh my oh
Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou

(*) Jambalaya and a crawfish pie and fillet gumbo
Cause tonight, I'm gonna see my ma cher a mi-o
Pick guitar, fill fruit far and be gay-o
Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou

Settle down far from town get him a pirogue
And he'll catch all the fish in the bayou
Swap his mon to buy Yvonne what she need-o
Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou

Repeat (*)

Well, she got her daddy's car
And she cruised through the hamburger stand-now,
Seems she forgot all about the library
Like she told her ol' man-now,
And with the radio blastin' goes cruisin'
Just as fast as she can-now

And she'll have fun, fun, fun,
Till her daddy takes the T-bird away

Well you knew all along that your dad
Was gettin' wise to you-now
(Should'na lied now, should'na lied)
And since he took your set of keys you've been
Thinkin' that your fun is all through-now
(Should'na lied now, should'na lied)
But you can come along with me 'cause we
Gotta lotta things to do-now

And we'll have fun, fun, fun
Now that daddy took the T-bird away

Fun, fun, fun
Now that daddy took the T-bird away

Fun, fun, fun
Now that daddy took the T-bird away

Johnny Angel, Johnny Angel
Johnny Angel, Johnny Angel
You're an angel to me

Johnny Angel
How I love him
How I tingle
When he passes by
Everytime he says 'hello'
My heart begins to fly

Johnny Angel
How I want him
He's got something
That I can't resist
But he doesn't even know
That I exist

I'm in heaven
I get carried away
I dream of him and me
And how it's gonna be
Other fellows
Call me up for a date
But I just sit and wait
I'd rather concentrate

On Johnny Angel
'Cause I love him
And I pray
That someday he'll love me
And together we will see
How lovely Heaven will be

And together we will see
How lovely Heaven will be

When I was young
I'd listened to the radio
Waitin' for my favorite songs
Waiting they played I'd sing along
It made me smile

Those were such happy times
And not so long ago
How I wondered where they'd gone
But they're back again
Just like a long lost friend
All the songs I loved so well

(*) Every Sha-la-la-la
Every Wo-wo-wo
Still shines
Every shing-a-ling-a-ling
That they're starting to sing's
So fine

When they get to the part
Where he's breakin' her heart
It can really make me cry
Just like before
It's yesterday once more

Lookin' back on how it was
In years gone by
And the good times that I had
Makes today seem rather sad
So much has changed

It was songs of love that
I would sing to then
And I'd memorize each word
Those old melodies
Still sound so good to me
As they melt the years away

Repeat (*)

All my best memories
Come back clearly to me
Some can even make me cry
Just like before
It's yesterday once more

Repeat (*)

They say that you're a run around lover
Tho' you say it isn't so

But if you put me down for another
I'll know, believe me
I'll know

'Cause the night has a thousand eyes
And a thousand eyes can't help but see
If you aren't true to me

So remember when you tell those
Little white lies that the night
Has a thousand eyes

One of these days you're gonna be sorry
'Cause your game I'm gonna play
And you'll find out without really trying
Each time that my kisses stray

That the night has a thousand eyes
And a thousand eyes will see me through
And no matter what I do

I could never disguise
All those little white lies
'Cause the night has a thousand eyes

So remember when you tell those
Little white lies that the night
Has a thousand eyes

Are we really happy with
This lonely game we play
Looking for the right words to say
Searching but not finding
Understanding anyway
We're lost in this masquerade

Both afraid to say we're just too far away
From being close together from the start
We tried to talk it over
But the words got in the way
We're lost inside this lonely game we play

(*) Throughts of leaving disappear
Each time I see your eyes
And no matter how hard I try
To understand the reason
Why we carry on this way
And we're lost in this masquerade

We tried to talk it over
But the words got in the way
We're lost inside this lonely game we play

Repeat (*)

We're lost in a masquerade
