#6 Indian Reservation (The Lament of the Cherokee Reservation Indian) (Paul Revere & The Raiders) 👍🏼

Lyrics:
They took the whole Cherokee nation
Put us on this reservation
Took away our ways of life
The tomahawk and the bow and knife
Took away our native tongue
And taught their English to our young
And all the beads we made by hand
Are nowadays made in Japan🪄
Cherokee people
Cherokee tribe
So proud to live
So proud to die🪄
They took the whole Indian nation
Locked us on this reservation
Though I wear a shirt and tie
I’m still part redman deep inside🪄
Cherokee people
Cherokee tribe
So proud to live
So proud to die🪄
But maybe someday when they learn
Cherokee nation will return, will return
Will return, will return, will return

Lyrics:
Celia, you’re breaking my heart
You’re shaking my confidence daily
Oh Cecilia, I’m down on my knees
I’m begging you please to come home🪄
Celia, you’re breaking my heart
You’re shaking my confidence daily
Oh Cecilia, I’m down on my knees
I’m begging you please to come home🪄
Come on home
Making love in the afternoon with Cecilia
Up in my bedroom (making love)
I got up to wash my face
When I come back to bed
Someone’s taken my place🪄
Celia, you’re breaking my heart
You’re shaking my confidence daily
Oh Cecilia, I’m down on my knees
I’m begging you please to come home🪄
Jubilation
She loves me again
I fall on the floor and I’m laughing🪄
Jubilation
She loves me again
I fall on the floor and I’m laughing

#5 How Can You Mend A Broken Heart (Bee Gees) 👍🏼

Lyrics:
I can think of younger days when living for my life
Was everything a man could want to do
I could never see tomorrow
But I was never told about the sorrows🪄
And, how can you mend a broken heart?
How can you stop the rain from falling down?
How can you stop the sun from shining?
What makes the world go round?
How can you mend this broken man?
How can a loser ever win?
Please help me mend my broken heart and let me live again🪄
I can still feel the breeze that rustles through the trees
And misty memories of days gone by
We could never see tomorrow
No one said a word about the sorrow🪄
And how can you mend a broken heart?
How can you stop the rain from falling down?
How can you stop the sun from shining?
What makes the world go round?
And how can you mend this broken man?
How can a loser ever win?
Please help me mend my broken heart and let me live again🪄
La la la la la la, la la la la
La la la la la la, la la la la🪄
Please help me mend my broken heart and let me live again
Da da da da
Da da da da, da da da da da, da

#4 One Bad Apple (The Osmonds) 👍🏼

Lyrics:
Yeah, yeah🪄
I can tell you’ve been hurt
By that look on your face, girl
Some guy brought sad
Into your happy world🪄
You need love, but you’re
Afraid that if you give in
Someone else will come along
And sock it to you again🪄
One bad apple don’t
Spoil the whole bunch, girl
Oh, give it one more try
Before you give up on love🪄
One bad apple don’t
Spoil the whole bunch, girl
Oh, I don’t care what they say
I don’t care what you heard🪄
I could make you happy, baby
Satisfy you too (satisfy you now)
But how can I if you
Won’t give me a chance
To prove my love to you🪄
Won’t you just give me one
Little chance (one little chance now)
I’ll give you love’s guarantee
That you won’t be hurt again🪄
One bad apple don’t
Spoil the whole bunch, girl
Oh, give it one more try
Before you give up on love🪄
One bad apple don’t
Spoil the whole bunch, girl
Oh, I don’t care what they say
I don’t care what you heard now🪄
I’ve been noticing you, baby
For a long, long time
(Long, long time now)
I’m not ashamed to tell the world
That you really messed up my mind🪄
Girl, to me you’re like a
Dream come true
(Dream come true now)
I’d rather hurt myself
Than to ever hurt you🪄
One bad apple don’t
Spoil the whole bunch, girl
Oh, give it one more try
Before you give up on love🪄
One bad apple don’t
Spoil the whole bunch, girl
Oh, I don’t care what they say
I don’t care what you heard now🪄
One bad apple don’t
Spoil the whole bunch, girl
Oh, give it one more try
Before you give up on love🪄
One bad apple don’t
Spoil the whole bunch, girl
Oh, now, I don’t care what they say
I don’t care what you heard now

#3 I Feel the Earth Move (Carole King) 👍🏼

Lyrics:
I feel the Earth move under my feet
I feel the sky tumbling down
I feel my heart start to trembling
Whenever you’re around🪄
Ooh, baby, when I see your face
Mellow as the month of May
Oh, darling, I can’t stand it
When you look at me that way🪄
Hey, I feel the Earth move under my feet
I feel the sky tumbling down
I feel my heart start to trembling
Whenever you’re around🪄
Ooh, darling, when you’re near me
And you tenderly call my name
I know that my emotions are something I just can’t tame
I just got to have you, baby
Uh, uh, uh
Uh, uh, uh, yeah🪄
I feel the Earth move under my feet
I feel the sky tumbling down, a-tumbling down
I feel the Earth move under my feet
I feel the sky tumbling down, a-tumbling down
I just a-lose control
Down to my very soul
I get-a hot and cold
All over, all over, all over, all over🪄
I feel the Earth move under my feet
I feel the sky tumbling down, a-tumbling down
I feel the Earth move under my feet
I feel the sky tumbling down, a-tumbling down
A-tumbling down, a-tumbling down
A-tumbling down, tumbling down
