1. _ Up On The Roof
When this old world starts getting me down
And people are just too much for me to take
I climb right up to the top of the stairs
And all my cares just drift right into space
On the roof's the only place i know
Where you just have to wish to make it so
Up on the roof
When i get home feeling tired and beat
I go up where the air is fresh and sweet
I get away from that hustling crowd
And all that ratrace noise down in the street
At night the stars put on a show for free
And darling you can share it all with me
I keep tellin' you that right smack dab in the middle of town
I found a paradise that's trouble-proof
And if this old world starts getting you down
There's room enough for two up on the roof
Up on the roof
Come on baby, come on baby, up on the roof
Come on baby, come on baby, up on the roof
Come on baby, come on baby, up on the roof
Come on baby, come on baby, up on the roof
Up on the roof

2. _ Silhouettes
Took a walk and passed your house late last night
All the shades were pulled and drawn way down tight
From within the dim light cast two silhouettes on the shade
Oh what a lovely couple they made
Put his arms around your waist, held you tight
Kisses i could almost taste in the night
I wondered why i'm not the guy whose silhouette's on the shade
I couldn't hide those tears in my eyes
Silhouettes, silhouettes, silhouettes, oh
Silhouettes, silhouettes, silhouettes, oh
Lost control and rang your bell, i was sore
Let me in or else i'll beat down your door
When two strangers who had been two silhouettes on the shade
Said to my shock 'you're on the wrong block'
Ran down to your house with wings on my feet
Loved you like i'd never loved you my sweet
Vowed that you and i would be two silhouettes on the shade
All of our days two silhouettes on the shade
Silhouettes, silhouettes, silhouettes, oh
Silhouettes, silhouettes, silhouettes, oh
Two silhouettes on the shade

3. _ Poison Ivy
She comes on like a rose
But everybody knows
She'll get you in dutch
You can look but you better not touch
Poison ivy
Poison ivy
Late at night while you're sleepin'
Poison ivy comes a creepin' around
She's round
She's pretty as a daisy
But look out man she's crazy
She'll really do you in
If you let her get under your skin
Chorus
Measles make you bumpy
And mumps'll make you lumpy
And chicken pox'll make youjump and twitch
A common cold'll fool ya
And whoopin' cough can cool ya
But poison ivy lord'll make you itch
You're gonna need an ocean
Of calamine lotion
You'll be scratchin' like a hound
The minute you start to mess around
Chorus

4. _ This Boy
That boy took my love away
But he'll regret it some day
This boy wants you back again
That boy isn't good for you
Though he may want you too
This boy wants you back again
And this boy would be happy just to love
But oh my, that boy won't be happy
'til he sees you cry
This boy wouldn't mind the pain
Would always feel the same
If this boy gets you back again

5. _ Chain Gang
Oh don't you know
That's the sound of the men
Workin' on the chain gang
Oh don't you know
That's the sound of the men
Workin' on the chain gang
All day long they work so hard
'til the sun's comin' down
Workin' on the highways and byways
And wearin' a frown
I hear them moanin' their lives away
Then you hear somebody say
(chorus)
Oh i work so..
I work so hard
To see my woman
Who i love so dear
But i, i've gotta work right here
(chorus)
My my my my my my my my my my
My work is so hard
Give me water
I'm thirsty
Oh i, oh my work is so hard
You hear them moanin' their lives away
Then you hear somebody say
(chorus)
I don't wanna work on that gang (repeat)

7. _ Drift Away
drift away
Day after day i'm more confused
But i look for the light thru the pourin' rain
You know that's a game that i hate to lose
I'm feelin' the strain
Ain't it a shame-oh
Give me the beat boys and free my soul
I want to get lost in the rock and roll
And drift away
Give me the beat boys and free my soul
I want to get lost in the rock and roll
And drift away
Beginnin' to think that i'm wasting time>br> and i don't understand the things
I do
The world outside looks so unkind
I'm counting on you
To carry me thru-oh
Chorus
When my mind is free
You know a melody can move me
And when i'm feelin' blue
The guitar's comin' thru to soothe me
Thanks for the joy that you've given me
I want you to know i believe in the song
And rhythm and rhyme and harmony
You helped me along
You're makin' me strong

8. _ Happy Together
Imagine me and you, i do
I think about you day and night, it's only right
To think about the girl you love and hold her tight
So happy together
If i should call you up, invest a dime
And you'd say you belong to me, i'd lose my mind
Imagine how the world could be so very fine
So happy together
Chorus:
I can't see me lovin' nobody but you
For all my life
When you're with me, baby the skies will be blue
For all my life
Me and you, and you and me
No matter how they toss the dice, it had to be
The only one for me is you, and you for me
So happy together
Chorus
Me and you, and you and me
No matter how they toss the dice, it had to be
The only one for me is you, and you for me
So happy together

You know i love you
I'll always love you
Even though the tears are fallin'
From my eyes
I still remember baby when
Our love was so strong
So go on
Go ahead and kiss him

Cause if he did he wouldn't go and break your heart
He's only flirtin' baby but my love is so strong
So go on, go ahead and kiss him
Go on and kiss him goodbye
Na na na na, hey hey hey, goodbye
Na na na na, na na na na, hey hey hey, goodbye
He's never near you to comfort and cheer you
Even though the tears are fallin', fallin' from your eyes
He might be thrillin' baby but my love is ready and willin'
So go on, go ahead and kiss him
Go ahead and kiss him, oo
Go ahead and kiss him, oo
Go on and kiss him goodbye
Goodbye, whoa goodbye
Bye bye bye, goodbye, whoa goodbye bye bye

10. _ Love Potion #9/spooky
love potion #9/spooky
I took my troubles down to madame ruth
You know that gypsy with the gold-capped tooth
She's got a shop down on 34th and vine
Sellin' little bottles of love potion #9
I took my troubles down to madame ruth
You know that gypsy with the gold-capped tooth
She's got a shop down on 34th and vine
Sellin' little bottles of love potion #9
I told her that i was a flop with chicks
I'd been this way since 1956
She stretched out her palm and she made a magic sign
She said 'what you need boy is love potion #9'
She bent down, she turned around she gave me a wink
She said 'i'm gonna mix it up right here in the sink'
It smelled like turpentine and looked like indian ink
I held my nose, i closed my eyes, i took a drink
I didn't know if it was day or night
I started kissin' everything in sight
But when i kissed a cop down on 34th and vine
He broke my little bottle of love potion #9
Love is kinda crazy with a spooky little girl like you
Love is kinda crazy with a spooky little girl like you
She bent down, she turned around, she gave me a wink
She said 'i'm gonna mix it up right here in the sink'
It smelled like turpentine and looked like india ink
I held my nose, i closed my eyes, i took a drink
I didn't know if it was day or night
I started kissin' everything in sight
But when i kissed a cop down on 34th and vine
He broke my little bottle of love potion #9
Love is kinda crazy with a spooky little girl like you

11. _ Remember (walking In The Sand)
It seems like the other day
That my baby went away
Went away 'cross the sea
Seems like a year ago
Since i watched my baby go
And then this letter came to me
It said that we were through
You found somebody new
Lemme think, lemme think, what can i do?
Oh no, oh no, oh no no no no no
Remember...
Walkin' in the sand
Walkin' hand in hand
The night was so exciting
Your smile was so inviting
Then you touched my cheek
With your fingertips
Softly, softly we meet with our lips
Whatever happened to
The love that we once knew
The love you swore would be true?
Whatever happened to
The life i gave to you?
What can i do with it now?
I can make it on my own
And if you phone, i won't be home
It's not so hard to live alone
Still my house is not a home
Oh no, oh no, oh no no no no no
Remember...

12. _ (all I Have To Do Is) Dream
When i want you in my arms
When i want you and your charms
Whenever i want you all i have to do is dream
Dream dream dream
When i feel blue in the night
And i need you to hold me tight
Whenever i want you all i have to do is dream
I can make you mine
Taste your lips of wine
Anytime night or day
Only trouble is gee whiz
I'm dreaming my life away
I need you so i could die
I love you so that is why
Whenever i want you all i have to do is dream
Dream dream dream

13. _ Oo Wee Oh Me Oh My
Oo wee, oh gee, oh well
To be in love is swell
Your love alone is worth the price
To make me feel like it's paradise
You make my life so tender and sweet now
I'm yours alone, like a slave at your feet
Oo wee, oh gee, oh my
I'll love you 'til the day i die
Your love and mine will show the whole world
Just how much one boy can love one girl
Oo wee, oh gee, oh well
To be in love is swell
Oo wee, oh gee, oh my
I'll love you 'til the day i die

Hush my darling don't fear my darling the lion sleeps tonight
