#25 Get Back (The Beatles with Billy Preston) 👍🏼

Lyrics:
Jojo was a man who thought he was a loner
But he knew it couldn’t last
Jojo left his home in Tucson, Arizona
For some California grass🪄
Get back, get back
Get back to where you once belonged
Get back, get back
Get back to where you once belonged
Get back Jojo🪄
Go home🪄
Get back, get back
Back to where you once belonged
Get back, get back
Back to where you once belonged, yeah
Oh, get back, Jo🪄
Sweet Loretta Martin thought she was a woman
But she was another man
All the girls around her say she’s got it coming
But she gets it while she can🪄
Oh, get back, get back
Get back to where you once belonged
Get back, get back
Get back to where you once belonged
Get back Loretta, woo, woo🪄
Go home🪄
Oh, get back, yeah, get back
Get back to where you once belonged
Yeah, get back, get back
Get back to where you once belonged🪄
Ooh
Ooh, ooh
Get back, Loretta
Your mommy’s waitin’ for you
Wearin’ her high-heel shoes
And a low-neck sweater
Get back home, Loretta🪄
Get back, get back
Get back to where you once belonged
Oh, get back, get back
Get back, oh yeah

#24 Bad Moon Rising (Creedence Clearwater Revival) 👍🏼

Lyrics:
I see the bad moon a-risin’
I see trouble on the way
I see earthquakes and lightnin’
I see bad times today🪄
Don’t go around tonight
Well it’s bound to take your life
There’s a bad moon on the rise🪄
I hear hurricanes a-blowin’
I know the end is comin’ soon
I fear rivers over flowin’
I hear the voice of rage and ruin🪄
Don’t go around tonight
Well it’s bound to take your life
There’s a bad moon on the rise, alright🪄
Hope you got your things together
Hope you are quite prepared to die
Looks like we’re in for nasty weather
One eye is taken for an eye🪄
Well don’t go around tonight
Well it’s bound to take your life
There’s a bad moon on the rise🪄
Don’t come around tonight
Well it’s bound to take your life
There’s a bad moon on the rise

#22 Sweet Caroline (Neil Diamond) 👍🏼

Lyrics:
Where it began
I can’t begin to know when
But then I know it’s growin’ strong
Was in the spring
And spring became the summer
Who’d have believe you’d come along?🪄
Hands
Touchin’ hands
Reachin’ out
Touching me, touchin’ you🪄
Sweet Caroline
Good times never seemed so good
I’ve been inclined
To believe they never would🪄
But now I look at the night
And it don’t seem so lonely
We fill it up with only two
And when I hurt
Hurtin’ runs off my shoulders
How can I hurt when holdin’ you?🪄
Warm
Touchin’ warm
Reachin’ out
Touchin’ me, touchin’ you🪄
Sweet Caroline
Good times never seemed so good
I’ve been inclined
To believe they never would, oh, no, no🪄
Sweet Caroline
Good times never seemed so good
Sweet Caroline
I believe they never could
Sweet Caroline

#21 It’s Your Thing (The Isley Brothers) 👍🏼

Lyrics:
It’s your thing, do what you wanna do
I can’t tell you, who to sock it to
It’s your thing, do what you wanna do
I can’t tell you, who to sock it to🪄
If you want me to love you, maybe I will
Believe me woman, it ain’t no big deal
You need love now, just as bad as I do
Make’s me no difference now, who you give your thing to🪄
It’s your thing, do what you wanna do
I can’t tell you, who to sock it to
It’s your thing, do what you wanna do
I can’t tell you, who to sock it to🪄
It’s your thing, do what you wanna do
I can’t tell you, who to sock it to
It’s your thing, do what you wanna do
I can’t tell you, who to sock it to🪄
I’m not trying to run your life, I know you wanna do what’s right
Give your love now, to whoever you choose
How can you lose, with the stuff you use now🪄
It’s your thing, do what you wanna do
I can’t tell you, who to sock it to
It’s your thing, do what you wanna do
Don’t let me tell you, who to sock it to🪄
It’s your thing, I do what I wanna do
I can’t tell you, who to sock it to

Lyrics:
What does it take to win your love for me?
How can I make this dream come true for me?
Oh, I just got to know,
Oh, baby, ’cause I love you so,
Gonna blow for you🪄
I’ve tried, I’ve tried, I’ve tried,
I’ve tried in every way

#19 Proud Mary (Creedence Clearwater Revival) 👍🏼

Lyrics:
Left a good job in the city
Workin’ for the man ev’ry night and day
And I never lost one minute of sleepin’
Worryin’ ’bout the way things might have been🪄
Big wheel keep on turnin’
Proud Mary keep on burnin’
Rollin’, rollin’, rollin’ on the river🪄
Cleaned a lot of plates in Memphis
Pumped a lot of ‘pane down in New Orleans
But I never saw the good side of the city
‘Til I hitched a ride on a river boat queen🪄
Big wheel keep on turnin’
Proud Mary keep on burnin’
Rollin’, rollin’, rollin’ on the river🪄
Rollin’, rollin’, rollin’ on the river🪄
If you come down to the river
Bet you gonna find some people who live
You don’t have to worry ’cause you have no money
People on the river are happy to give🪄
Big wheel keep on turnin’
Proud Mary keep on burnin’
Rollin’, rollin’, rollin’ on the river🪄
Rollin’, rollin’, rollin’ on the river
Rollin’, rollin’, rollin’ on the river
Rollin’, rollin’, rollin’ on the river

#18 Suspicious Minds (Elvis Presley) 👍🏼

Lyrics:
We’re caught in a trap
I can’t walk out
Because I love you too much, baby🪄
Why can’t you see
What you’re doing to me
When you don’t believe a word I say?🪄
We can’t go on together
With suspicious minds (with suspicious minds)
And we can’t build our dreams
On suspicious minds🪄
So, if an old friend I know
Stops by to say hello
Would I still see suspicion in your eyes?🪄
Here we go again
Asking where I’ve been
You can’t see the tears are real, I’m crying
(Yes, I’m crying)🪄
We can’t go on together
With suspicious minds (suspicious minds)
And we can’t build our dreams
On suspicious minds🪄
Oh, let our love survive
I’ll dry the tears from your eyes
Let’s don’t let a good thing die
When, honey, you know I have never lied to you, mm
(Yeah, yeah)🪄
We’re caught in a trap
I can’t walk out
Because I love you too much, baby🪄
Why can’t you see
What you’re doing to me
When you don’t believe a word I say?🪄
Don’t you know I’m caught in a trap?
I can’t walk out
Because I love you too much, baby🪄
Well, don’t you know I’m caught in a trap?
I can’t walk out
Because I love you too much, baby

#17 Grazing In The Grass (The Friends Of Distinction) 👍🏼

Lyrics:
It sure is mellow grazin’ in the grass
(Grazin’ in the grass is a gas, baby, can you dig it)
What a trip just watchin’ as the world goes past
(Grazin’ in the grass is a gas, baby, can you dig it)🪄
There are so many good things to see
While grazin’ in the grass
(Grazin’ in the grass is a gas, baby, can you dig it)
Flowers with colours for takin’🪄
Everything outta sight in the grass
(Grazin’ in the grass is a gas, baby, can you dig it)
The sun beaming down between the leaves
(Grazin’ in the grass is a gas, baby, can you dig it)🪄
And the bir-ir-ir-irds dartin’ in and out of the trees
(Grazin’ in the grass is a gas, baby, can you dig it)
Everything here is so clear, you can see it
And everything here is so real, you can feel it🪄
And it’s real, so real, so real, so real, so real, so real
Can you dig it
Whooo-oooh
I can dig it, he can dig it🪄
She can dig it, we can dig it
They can dig it, you can dig it
Oh, let’s dig it
Can you dig it, baby🪄
I can dig it, he can dig it
She can dig it, we can dig it
They can dig it, you can dig it
Oh, let’s dig it🪄
Can you dig it, baby🪄
The sun beaming down between the leaves
(Grazin’ in the grass is a gas, baby, can you dig it)
And the bir-ir-ir-irds dartin’ in and out of the trees
(Grazin’ in the grass is a gas, baby, can you dig it)🪄
Everything here is so clear, you can see it
And everything here is so real, you can feel it
And it’s real, so real, so real, so real, so real, so real
Can you dig it🪄
Whooo-oooh, yeah
I can dig it, he can dig it
She can dig it, we can dig it
They can dig it, you can dig it🪄
Oh, let’s dig it
Can you dig it, baby
I can dig it, he can dig it
She can dig it, we can dig it🪄
They can dig it, you can dig it
Oh, let’s dig it
Can you dig it, baby🪄
I can dig it, he can dig it
She can dig it, we can dig it
They can dig it, you can dig it
Oh, let’s dig it🪄

#16 Get Together (The Youngbloods) 👍🏼

Lyrics:
Love is but a song we sing
Fear’s the way we die
You can make the mountains ring
Or make the angels cry
Though the bird is on the wing
And you may not know why🪄
Come on, people now
Smile on your brother
Everybody get together
Try to love one another right now🪄
Some may come and some may go
He will surely pass
When the one that left us here
Returns for us at last
We are but a moment’s sunlight
Fading in the grass🪄
Come on, people now
Smile on your brother
Everybody get together
Try to love one another right now🪄
Come on, people now
Smile on your brother
Everybody get together
Try to love one another right now🪄
Come on, people now
Smile on your brother
Everybody get together
Try to love one another right now🪄
If you hear the song I sing
You will understand, listen
You hold the key to love and fear
All in your trembling hand
Just one key unlocks them both
It’s there at your command🪄
Come on, people now
Smile on your brother
Everybody get together
Try to love one another right now🪄
Come on, people now
Smile on your brother
Everybody get together
Try to love one another right now🪄
I said come on, people now
Smile on your brother
Everybody get together
Try to love one another right now
Right now
Right now
