Everybody needs somebody
Everybody needs somebody to love (someone to love)
Sweetheart to miss (sweetheart to miss)
Sugar to kiss (sugar to kiss)
I need you you you
I need you you you
I need you you you In the morning
I need you you you When my soul’s on fireSometimes I feel
I feel a little sad inside
When my baby mistreats me
I never never never have a place to hide
I need you

Sometimes I feel
I feel a little sad inside
When my baby mistreats me
I never never never have a place to hide
I need you you you
I need you you you
I need you you you
I need you you you
I need you

You know people when you do find that somebody
Hold that woman, hold that man
Love him, please him, squeeze her, please her,
Hold, squeeze and please that person, give ’em all your love
Signify your feelings with every gentle caress
Because it’s so important to have that special somebody
to hold, kiss, miss, squeeze and please

Everybody needs somebody
Everybody needs somebody to love
Someone to love
Sweetheart to miss
Sugar to kiss
I need you you you
I need you you you
I need you you you…

In 1973, Tony Orlando got to No.1 with #TieAYellowRibbon round the ol’ oak tree  #Singing #Feelgood

Tie a Yellow Ribbon

17-4 Tie a Yellow Ribbon

I’m coming home I’ve done my time,
Now I’ve got to know what is and isn’t mine,
If you receive my letter tellin’ you I’d soon be free,
Then you’ll know just what to do, if you still want me, if you still want me.
Tie a yellow ribbon `round the ole oak tree,
It’s been three long years, do ya still want me?
If I don’t see a ribbon ,round the ole oak tree,
I’ll stay on the bus, forget about us, put the blame on me
If I don’t see a ribbon `round the ole oak tree.
Bus driver, please look for me `cause I couldn’t bear to see what I might see,
I’m really still in prison, and my love, she holds the key,
Simple yellow ribbon’s what I need to set me free.
I wrote and told her please tie a yellow ribbon `round the ole oak tree,
It’s been three long years, do ya still want me?
If I don’t see a ribbon `round the ole oak tree,
I’ll stay on the bus, forget about us, put the blame on me,
If I don’t see a ribbon `round the ole oak tree.
Now the whole damn bus is cheering and I can’t believe I see
A hundred yellow ribbons `round the ole oak tree.

Just Stop [stop], ’cause I really love You
Stop [stop], I’ll be thinking of you
Look in my heart and let love keep us togetherYou, You belong to me now
Ain’t gonna set you free now
When those girls start hanging around talking me down
Hear with your heart and you won’t hear a sound
Just Stop [stop], ’cause I really love you
Stop [stop], I’ll be thinking of you
Look in my heart and let love keep us together, what ever.Young and beautiful
Someday your looks will be gone
When the others turn you off
Who’ll be turning you on

I will, I will, I will, I will
Be there to share forever
Love will keep us together
Said it before and I’ll say it again while others pretend
I’ll need you now and I’ll need you then

Look in my heart and let love keep us together

On high, with nothing to do

Wake Up.  It’s a beautiful morning!

Summer’s gone, day’s spent with the grass and sun,
I dont mind, to pretend i do seems really dumb.
I rise as the morning comes, crawling through the blinds,
I shouldn’t be up at this time, but i cant sleep with you there by my side.Wake up its a beautiful morning,
Feel the sun shining for your eyes.
Wake up its so beautiful,
For what could be the very last time.

Twenty five, don’t recall a time i felt this alive,
So wake up boo, there’s so many thing’s for us to do.
Its early so take your time, don’t let me rush you please,
I know i was up all night,i can do anything, anything, anything.

Wake up its a beautiful morning,
Feel the sun shining for your eyes.
Wake up its so beautiful,
For what could be the very last time.

Wake up (x8)

But you can’t blame me now for the death of summer,
But you can’t blame me now for the death of summer.
But you’ve gonna say, what you wanna say,
You have to put the death in everything.

Wake up its a beautiful morning,
Feel the sun shining for your eyes.
Wake up its so beautiful,
For what could be the very last time.

Wake up its a beautiful morning,
Feel the sun shining for your eyes.
Wake up its so beautiful,
For what could be the very last time.

Ahhhh

In 1977, #DavidSoul was No.1 with Don’t give up on me baby.  Go #StarskyAndHutch #Singing #Feelgood

Don’t give up on us baby

16-4 Starsky & Hutch

Don’t give up on us, baby
Don’t make the wrong seem right
The future isn’t just one night
It’s written in the moonlight
And painted on the stars
We can’t change ours

Don’t give up on us, baby
We’re still worth one more try
I know we put our last one by
Just for a rainy evening
When maybe stars are few
Don’t give up on us, I know
We can still come through

I really lost my head last night
You’ve got a right to stop believin’
There’s still a little love left, even so

Don’t give up on us, baby
Lord knows we’ve come this far
Can’t we stay the way we are
The angel and the dreamer
Who sometimes plays a fool
Don’t give up on us, I know
We can still come through

It’s written in the moonlight
And painted on the stars
We can’t change ours

Don’t give up on us, baby
We’re still worth one more try
I know we put our last one by
Just for a rainy evening
When maybe stars are few
Don’t give up on us, I know
We can still come through

Don’t give up on us, baby
Don’t give up on us, baby

16-4 David Soul Dont give up on us baby

April 15th – Bottle Opener invented – “Beer Run”

In 1738, the #BottleOpener was invented.  Here is a song about #Beer  #Singing #Feelgood

Beer Run

15-4 Bottle Opener

Twenty-five minutes past quitting time
Seven of us crammed into that truck of mine
Paying no attention to them highway signs
Doing ninety miles an hour toward the county line
Quick sack, twelve pack, back again
It’s a B Double E Double R-U-N.My buddies and their babies letting down their hair
As long as we’re together it don’t matter where
Ain’t got a lot of money but we just don’t care
Knowing half the fun is in the getting there
Aztec, long necks, paychecks spent
Oh, it’s a B Double E Double R-U-N.
I can’t stop thinking
What the hell they were drinking
When they made this county dry
I got a week-long thirst
And to make it worse
Lord, it’s my turn to drive

Laughing and bragging and a’ carrying on
We loaded up the wagons and we headed home
I guess half a dozen cases doesn’t last that long
Come tomorrow morning it’ll be all gone
Then, it’s turn around, leave town, sounds again
Like a B Double E Double R-U-N.

15-4 Garth Brooks Beer Run

April 13th – Nancy and Frank Sinatra record – “Somethin’ Stupid”

In 1967, the #Sinatra s got to no.1.  The only father and daughter combo ever to do this  #Singing #Feelgood

Somethin’ Stupid

13-4 somethin stupid

I know I stand in line until you think you have the time
To spend an evening with me
And if we go someplace to dance, I know that there’s a chance
You won’t be leaving with me
And afterwards we drop into a quiet little place and have a drink or two
And then I go and spoil it all by saying something stupid like “I love you”I can see it in your eyes
That you despise the same old lies you heard the night before
And though it’s just a line to you, for me it’s true
And never seemed so right before

I practice every day to find some clever lines to say
To make the meaning come through
But then I think I’ll wait until the evening gets late and I’m alone with you
The time is right, your perfume fills my head, the stars get red and, oh, the night’s so blue
And then I go and spoil it all by saying something stupid like “I love you”

[instrumental]

The time is right, your perfume fills my head, the stars get red and, oh, the night’s so blue
And then I go and spoil it all by sayin’ something stupid like “I love you”

I love you
I love you
I love you

[Fade:]
I love you

13-4 Frank Sinatra Somethin Stupid
