#75 I Just Can’t Help Believing (B.J. Thomas) 👍🏼

Lyrics:
… I just can’t help believing
When she smiles up soft and gentle
With a trace of a misty morning
And a promise of tomorrow in her eyes🪄
… And I just can’t help believing
When she’s lying close beside me
And my heart beats with the rhythm of her sigh🪄
… This time the girl is gonna stay
This time the girl is gonna stay
For more than just a day🪄
… And I just can’t help believing
When she slips her hand in my hand
And it feels so small and helpless
That my fingers fold around it like a glove🪄
… And I just can’t help believing
When she’s whispering her magic
And her tears are shining honey sweet with love🪄
… This time the girl is gonna stay
(This time the girl is gonna stay)
This time the girl is gonna stay
For more than just a day
… For more than just a day🪄
I just can’t help believing
I just can’t help believing
I just can’t help believing

#73 Up Around The Bend (Creedence Clearwater Revival) 👍🏼

Lyrics:
There’s a place up ahead and I’m going
Just as fast as my feet can fly
Come away, come away, if you’re going
Leave the sinking ship behind🪄
Come on the rising wind
We’re going up around the bend
Ooh🪄
Bring a song and a smile for the banjo
Better get while the getting’s good
Hitch a ride to the end of the highway
Where the neons turn to wood🪄
Come on the rising wind
We’re going up around the bend
Ooh🪄
You can ponder perpetual motion
Fix your mind on a crystal day
Always time for a good conversation
There’s an ear for what you say🪄
Come on the rising wind
We’re going up around the bend
Yeah🪄
Ooh🪄
Catch a ride to the end of the highway
And we’ll meet by the big red tree
There’s a place up ahead and I’m going
Come along, come along with me🪄
Come on the rising wind
We’re going up around the bend
Yeah🪄
Do-do-doo-do
Do-do-doo-do
Do-doo-do
Do-do-doo-do
Yeah
Do-do-doo-do
Do-do-doo-do

#71 Didn’t I (Blow Your Mind This Time) (The Delfonics) 👍🏼

Lyrics:
I gave my heart and soul to you, girl
Didn’t I do it baby, didn’t I do it baby?🪄
Gave you the love you never knew, girl
Didn’t I do it baby, didn’t I do it baby?🪄
I’ve tried so many times and that’s no lie
It seems to make you laugh each time I cry🪄
Didn’t I blow your mind this time, didn’t I?
Didn’t I blow your mind this time, didn’t I?
Listen🪄
I thought that heart of yours was true, girl
Now didn’t I think it baby, didn’t I think it baby?🪄
But this time I’m really leavin’ you, girl
Hope you know it baby, hope you know it baby🪄
Ten times or more, yes, I’ve walked out that door
Get this into your head, there’ll be no more🪄
Didn’t I blow your mind this time, didn’t I?
Didn’t I blow your mind this time, didn’t I?🪄
Didn’t I do it baby, didn’t I do it baby?
Didn’t I do it baby, didn’t I do it baby?🪄
Ten times or more, yes, I’ve walked out that door
Get this into your head, there’ll be no more🪄
Didn’t I blow your mind this time, didn’t I?
Didn’t I blow your mind this time, didn’t I?
I got to live you, baby🪄
Didn’t I blow your mind this time, didn’t I?
Didn’t I blow your mind this time, didn’t I?

#70 No Time (The Guess Who) 👍🏼

Lyrics:
(No time left for you) On my way to better things
(No time left for you) I found myself some wings
(No time left for you) Distant roads are callin’ me
(No time left for you)🪄
Time, time, time, time, time🪄
No time for a gentle rain
No time for my watch and chain
No time for revolving doors
No time for the killin’ floor
No time for the killin’ floor
There’s no time left for you
No time left for you🪄
(No time left for you) On my way to better things
(No time left for you) I found myself some wings
(No time left for you) Distant roads are callin’ me
(No time left for you)🪄
No time for a summer friend
No time for the love you send
Seasons change and so did I
You need not wonder why
You need not wonder why
There’s no time left for you
No time left for you🪄
(No time left for you) On my way to better things
(No time left for you) I found myself some wings
(No time left for you) Distant roads are callin’ me
(No time left for you)🪄
No time for a summer friend
No time for the love you send
Seasons change and so did I
You need not wonder why
You need not wonder why
There’s no time left for you
No time left for you🪄
(No time) No time, no time, no time, no time
No no no time, no no time, no time, no time
I got, got, got, got no time
I got, got, got, got no time for you, woman
I got no time for you, woman
I got no time for your stupid games anymore
No, no
I got no time for you, woman, no
I got no time for hangin’ around
For gettin’ stepped on
For gettin’ pushed around, woman
I got no time for hangin’ around them kind of things

#69 Evil Ways (Santana) 👍🏼

Lyrics:
You’ve got to change your evil ways, baby
Before I stop lovin’ you
You’ve got to change, baby
And every word that I say is true🪄
You’ve got me runnin’ and hidin’ all over town
You’ve got me sneakin’ and a peepin’ and runnin’ you down
This can’t go on
Lord knows, you’ve got to change, baby🪄
Baby, when I come home, baby
My house is dark, and my thoughts are cold
You hang around, baby
With Jean and Joan and a who knows who🪄
I’m gettin’ tired of waiting and fooling around
I’ll find somebody that won’t make me feel like a clown
This can’t go on
Lord knows, you’ve got to change🪄
When I come home, baby
My house is dark, and my thoughts are cold
You hang around baby
With Jean and Joan and a who knows who?🪄
I’m gettin’ tired of waiting and fooling around
I’ll find somebody that won’t me feel like a clown
This can’t go on
Yeah, yeah, yeah🪄
Thank you very much
