"I Heard It Through The Grapevine"

 

I bet you're wondering how I knew
'Bout your plan to make me blue
With some other guy you knew before
Between the two of us guys..
You know I love you more
You took me by surprise..I must say
When I found out yesterday
Don't you know..
I heard it through the grapevine
Not much longer would you be mine
Ohhhhh..I heard it through the grapevine
And I'm just about to lose my mind..
Honey honey..yeah
I know a man ain't supposed to cry
But these tears I can't hold inside
Losing you would end my life you see
'Cause you mean that much to me
You could have told me yourself
That you loved somebody else
Instead..I heard it through the grapevine
Not much longer would you be mine
People say believe half of what you see
Son, and none of what you hear
But I can't hide being confused
If it's true..please tell me dear
Do you plan to let me go
For the other guy that you loved before
Don't you know I heard it through the grapevine
Not much longer would you be mine
Ohhh..I heard it through the grapevine
And I'm just about to lose my mind
Yeah I heard it through the grapevine
Not much longer would you be mine
Ohhh..I heard it through the grapevine
And I'm just about to lose my mind...
honey, honey yeah
Honey, I know..you're gonna let me go

"Don't Take It Tonight"

 

There's no easy way to ask you
To make believe everything's alright
Ohhh, my heart cries out in desperation...no no
If you're taking your love away..
Don't take it tonight..
Give me some time to talk to my mind
Try to convince myself
It's gonna be hard for me to hold on
While you're holding somebody else
Let me have from now til morning
One last time to hold you tight
Maybe we can love it over..all over
But if you're taking your love away..
Don't take it tonight
Ohh..give me some time to talk to my mind
Try to convince myself
It's gonna be hard for me to hold on..
While you're holding somebody else
I can feel the end is beginning
Fell you slipping out of my life
You don't know how my heart is breaking..
Girl you don't know
If you're taking your love away 
Don't take it tonight
Ohhh..if you're taking your love away..

Don't take it tonight
Don't take your love tonight..don't take it
Don't take your love tonight..
Don't take your love away..wait til tomorrow
Baby please..no no
I'm on my knees

"How Do I Turn You On"

Mike Reid/Robert Byrne

I'd like to be a fly on your wall
When you think you're all alone
Learn your secrets once and for all
Ne..ever tell no one
I can't read your mind
It's secret telling time
Tell me, how do I turn you on
Tell me, how do I turn you on
Baby there's a game we could play
Is there something that you want
But you're too shy to say
How do I turn you on
Turn you on to me
Oh, I could take you away a million miles from here
When I'm getting close baby say
With a whisper in my ear
How to make you mine
It's secret telling time
Tell me how do I turn you on..
Baby please..I just wanna know
Tell me how do I turn you on
There's nothing I wouldn't do
Ooooh maybe there's a game we could play
is there something you want
But you're too shy to say
How do I turn you on
Turn you on to me
Just between you and me
I'm a little nervous too
Just beyond our wildest dreams
It's waiting for me
And it's waiting for you
Hmmm, maybe there's a game we could play
Is there some thing that you want
But you're to shy to say
How do I turn you on
Just wanna know..oh, tell me
How do I turn you on
Turn you on to me

"Happy, Happy Birthday Baby"

Margo Sylvia/Gil Lopez

Happy, happy birthday baby
Although you're with somebody new
Thought I'd drop a line to say
That I wish this happy day
Would find me beside you
Happy, happy birthday baby
No I can't call you my baby
Seems like years ago we met
On a day I can't forget
Cause that's when we fell in love
Do you remember the names we had for each other
You were my pretty, I was your baby
How could we say goodbye
Hope I didn't spoil your birthday
I know I'm acting kinda crazy
So I'll close this note to you
With good luck and wishes too
Happy, happy birthday baby
Do you remember the names we had for each other
You were my pretty..I was your baby
How could we say goodbye
Hope I didn't spoil your birthday
I know I'm acting kinda crazy
So, I'll close this note to you

With  good luck and wishes too
Happy, happy birthda...ay baby

"I Only Remember The Good Times"



There must have been a whole lot of days we didn't talk at all
Many nights one of us slept with our face turned to the wall
It would be easier for me..now that I'm all alone
If I could remember one single reason why you're gone
So tell me..why do I only remember the good times
Why do I only remember your smile
If I faced the truth like I'm trying to do
It wasn't all roses and wine
So  why do I only remember the good times
There have been days I didn't think of anything but you
And I've wished I could hate you for all of the hurting you've put me through
But these painful mem'ries all get pushed aside
And I remember the laughter
Even though I know I must have cried
So tell me. why do I only remember the good times
Oh, why do I only remember your smile
If I faced the truth like I'm trying to do
It wasn't all roses and wine

So why do I only remember the good times
Oooh, why do I only remember the good times

"Money (That's What I Want)"

 

The best thing's in life are free
But you can give it to the birds and bees
I need money, that's what I want
That's what I wa..annt..that's what I want
Money don't get everything it's true
But what it don't get I can't use
I need money..that's what I want
That's what I wa...annnt..that's what I want
Your love give me such a thrill
But your lovin' don't pay the bills
I need money, that's what I want
That's what I wa....annt..that's what I want
Your love gives me such a thrill
But, baby..it don't pay my bills
I need money..that's what I want
That's what I wa...annt, that's what I want
Give me money..I like money
A whole lotta..lotta money
Give me money..give me money
Money, that's what I want
