1. _ Makin' Whoopee
Writer(s): w. donaldson/g. kahn
Another bride, another june
Another sunny honeymoon
Another season, another reason
For makin' whoopee
A lot of shoes, a lot of rice
The groom is nervous, he answers twice
Its really killin' that he's so willin' to make whoopee
Picture a little love nest
Down where the roses cling
Picture the same sweet love nest
And think what a year can bring
He's washin dishes and baby clothes
He's so ambitious he even sews
But don't forget folks,
Thats what you get folks, for makin' whoopee

2. _ It Was A Very Good Year
When i was seventeen
It was a very good year
It was a very good year for small town girls
And soft summer nights
We'd hide from the lights
On the village green
When i was seventeen
When i was twenty-one
It was a very good year
It was a very good year for city girls
Who lived up the stair
With all that perfumed hair
And it came undone
When i was twenty-one
When i was thirty-five
It was a very good year
It was a very good year for blue-blooded girls
Of independent means
We'd ride in limousines
Their chauffeurs would drive
When i was thirty-five
But now the days grow short
I'm in the autumn of the year
And now i think of my life as vintage wine
>from fine old kegs
>from the brim to the dregs
And it poured sweet and clear
It was a very good year
It was a mess of good years

3. _ My Kind Of Town
now this could only happen to a guy like me
And only happen in a town like this
So may i say to each of you most gratefully
As i throw each one of you a kiss
This is my kind of town, chicago is
My kind of town, chicago is
My kind of people too
People who smile at you
And each time i roam, chicago is
Calling me home, chicago is
Why i just brim like a cload
It's my kind of town
My kind of town, chicago is
My kind of town, chicago is
My kind of razzmatazz
And it has, all that jazz
And each time i leave, chicago is
Tuggin my sleeve, chicago is
The wrigley building, chicago is
The union stockyard, chicago is
One town that won't let you down
It's my kind of town

4. _ Get Me To The Church On Time
I'm gettin' married in the morning
Ding-dong the bells are gonna chime
We'll have a whopper, pull out the stopper
Get me to the church on time
I've got to get there in the morning
Spruced up and lookin' in my prime
Pull out your compass, kick up a rompass
Get me to the church on time
If i am dancing roll up the floor
If i am whistling, out the door
I'm gettin'' married in the morning
Ding-ding-dong they're gonna chime
Girls come and kiss me, say that you'll miss me
Get me to the church on time

5. _ Come Fly With Me
Writer(s): cahn/van heusen
Come fly with me, let's fly let's fly away
If you can use, some exotic booze
There's a bar in far bombay
Come fly with me, we'll fly we'll fly away
Come fly with me, let's float down to peru
In lama land, there's a one man band
And he'll toot his flute for you
Come fly with me, we'll float down in the blue
Once i get you up there, where the air is rarefied
We'll just glide, starry eyed
Once i get you up there, i'll be holding you so near
You may here, angels cheer - because were together
Weather wise it's such a lovely day
You just say the words, and we'll beat the birds
Down to acapulco bay
It's perfect, for a flying honeymoon - they say
Come fly with me, we'll fly we'll fly away

All of me - why not take (come on get) all of me
Can't you see - i'm no good (just a mess) without you

7. _ Angel Eyes
Writer(s): dennis/brent
Hey drink up all you people
Order anything you see
And have fun you happy people
The laugh and the drinks on me
Try to think that love's not around
Still it's uncomfortably near
My poor old heart ain't gaining any ground
Because my angel eyes ain't here
Angel eyes, that old devil sent
They glow unbearably bright
Need i say that my love's mispent
Mispent with angel eyes tonight
So drink up all of you people
Order anything you see
And have fun you happy people
The drink and the laughs on me
Pardon me but i got to run
The fact's uncommonly clear
I got to find who's now the number one
And why my angel eyes ain't here
Excuse me while i disappear

8. _ I've Got A Crush On You
How glad the many millions of annabelles and lillians
Would be to capture me
But you had such persistence, you wore down my resistance
I fell and it was swell
I'm your big and brave and handsome romeo
How i won you i shall never never know
It's not that you're attractive
But, oh, my heart grew active
When you came into view
I've got a crush on you, sweetie pie
All the day and night-time give me sigh
I never had the least notion that
I could fall with so much emotion
Could you coo, could you care
For a cunning cottage we could share
The world will pardon my mush
'cause i have got a crush on you
Could you coo, could you care
For a cunning cottage
That we could share
The world will pardon my mush
'cause i have got a crush, my baby, on you

9. _ Street Of Dreams
Writer(s): young
Love laughs at a king
Kings don't mean a thing
On the street of dreams
Dreams broken in two
Can be made like new
On the street of dreams
Gold, silver and gold
All you can hold
Is up there on a moonbeam
Poor, there ain't nobody poor
As long as love is sure
On the street of dreams

Fly me to the moon
Let me sing among those stars
Let me see what spring is like
On jupiter and mars
In other words, hold my hand
In other words, baby kiss me
Fill my heart with song
Let me sing for ever more
You are all i long for
All i worship and adore
In other words, please be true
In other words, i love you

11. _ One For My Baby
one for my baby (from "duets")
Writer(s): johnny mercer/harold arlen
It's quarter to three,
There's no one in the place 'cept you and me
So set 'em' up joe
I got a little story i think you oughtta know
We're drinking my friend
To the end of a brief episode
So make it one for my baby
And one more for the road
I know the routine
Put another nickel in that there machine
I'm feeling so bad
Won't you make the music easy and sad
I could tell you a lot
But you gotta to be true to your code
So make it one for my baby
And one more for the road
You'd never know it
But buddy i'm a kind of poet
And i've got a lot of things i wanna say
And if i'm gloomy, please listen to me
Till it's all, all talked away
Well, that's how it goes
And joe i know you're gettin' anxious to close
So thanks for the cheer
I hope you didn't mind
My bending your ear
But this torch that i found
It's gotta be drowned
Or it soon might explode
So make it one for my baby
And one more for the road

12. _ Shadow Of Your Smile
The shadow of your smile when you are gone
Will color all my dreams and light the dawn
Look into my eyes my love and see
All the lovely things you are to me
Our wistful little star was far too high
A tear drop kissed your lips and so did I
Now when I remember spring
All the joy that love can bring
I will be remembering

13. _ Where Or When
When you're awake, the things you think
Come from the dream you dream
Thought has wings, and lots of things
Are seldom what they seem
Sometimes you think you've lived before
All that you live to day
Things you do come back to you
As though they knew the way
Oh the tricks your mind can play
It seems we stood and talked like this, before
We looked at each other in the same way then
But i can't remember where or when
The clothes you're wearing are the close, you wore
The smile you are smiling you were smiling then
But i can't remember where or when
Some things that happened for the first time
Seem to be happening again
And so it seems that we have met before
And that we laughed before, also loved before
But who knows where or when

14. _ Luck Be A Lady
Writer(s): loesser
They call you lady luck
But there is room for doubt
At times you have a very un-lady-like way
Of running out
Your on this date with me
The pickin's have been lush
And yet before the evening is over
You might give me the brush
You might forget your manners
You might refuse to stay
And so the best that i can do is pray
Luck be a lady tonight
Luck be a lady tonight
Luck if you've been a lady to begin with
Luck be a lady tonight
Luck let a gentleman see
Just how nice a dame you can be
I know the way you've treated other guys you've been with
Luck be a lady with me
A lady never leaves her escort
It isn't fair, it isn't nice
A lady doesn't wander all over the room
And blow on some other guys dice
Lets keep this party polite
Never get out of my sight
Stick with me baby, i'm the guy that you came in with
Luck be a lady tonight
A lady never flirts with strangers
She'd have a heart, she'd be nice
A lady doesn't wander all over the room
And blow on some other guys dice
Lets keep this party polite
Never get out of my sight
Stick with me baby, i'm the guy that you came in with
Luck be a lady tonight

15. _ You Make Me Feel So Young
Writer(s): myrow/gordon
You make me feel so young
You make me feel like spring has sprung
Every time i see you grin
I'm such a happy individual
The moment that you speak
I want to go and play hide-and-seek
I want to go and bounce the moon
Just like a toy balloon
You and i, are just like a couple of tots
Running across the meadow
Picking up lots of forget-me-nots
You make me feel so young
You make me feel there are songs to be sung
Bells to be rung, and a wonderful fling to be flung
And even when i'm old and gray
I'm gonna feel the way i do today
'cause you make me feel so young

16. _ Don't Worry 'bout Me
Don't worry 'bout me
I'll get along
Just you forget about me
Be happy my love
Just say that our little show is over
And so the story ends
Why not call it a day, the sensible way
And we'll remain friends
Look out for yourself
Should be the rule
Just give your heart and your love, to whom ever you love
Don't you be a fool
Baby why stop and cling, to some fading thing
That used to be
So if you can't forget
Don't you worry 'bout me

17. _ September Of My Years
Writer(s): cahn/van heusen
One day you turn around, and it's summer
Next day you turn around, and it's fall
And all the winters and the springs of a lifetime
Whatever happened to them all
As a man, who as always had the wandering ways
I keep looking back to yesterdays
'til a long forgotten love appears
And i find, i'm sighing softly as i near
September, the warm september of my years
As i man, who has never pauses at wishing wells
Now i'm watching children's carousels
And their laughter's music to my ears
And i find, that i'm smiling gently as i near
September, the warm september of my years
- the golden warm september of my years

18. _ I've Got You Under My Skin
i've got you under my skin
I've got you deep in the heart of me
So deep in my heart, that you're really a part of me
I've got you under my skin
I've tried so not to give in
I've said to myself this affair never will go so well
But why should i try to resist, when baby will i know than well
That i've got you under my skin
I'd sacrifice anything come what might
For the sake of having you near
In spite of a warning voice that comes in the night
And repeats, repeats in my ear
Don't you know you fool, you never can win
Use your mentality, wake up to reality
But each time i do, just the thought of you
Makes me stop before i begin
'cause i've got you under my skin
