#39 Fire (Arthur Brown) 👍🏼

Lyrics:
Firebreathing through your unseigable fortress. I’m the devil and Michael De
Ruyter’s my name. I ride on the waves, right through your chains. You are my
Prey and you’ll never forget my name. A firebreath, a crimson sky, in a lake
Of fire you will die. The English pride, consumed by flames, you’ll never
Forget my name.🪄
Firebreath, spritting forks of fire. Firebreath, attacking a crumbling empire.
Firebreath, the Dutchman’s anger. Firebreath, a fire’s breath. The voyage to
Chatham. in 1667. The three day wat, never equalled again. Capture the Royal
Charles, the English flagship.🪄
The river Thames, the bleeding English heart. A firebreath, a crimson sky, in
A lake of fire you will die. The English pride, consumed by flames, you’ll
Never forget my name. A thousand cannonballs, rain down on my deck. Of the
Seven Provincies, the republic’s battleship number one. But they do no harm,
Cause Satan’s wings protect. His servant’s life, from the English last
Convulsion.🪄
A firebreath, a crimson sky, in a lake of fire you will die. The English
Pride, consumed by flames, you’ll never forget my name. Firebreath, spritting
Forks of fire. Firebreath, attacking a crumbling empire. Firebreath, the
Dutchman’s anger. Firebreath, a fire’s breath

#37 Hold Me Tight (Johnny Nash) 👍🏼

Lyrics:
I don’t want to hear it,
No more fussin’ and fightin’ baby,
Hold me tight.
Let’s let bygones be bygones,
Let’s think about tomorrow girl,
Our future’s bright.
Well, I know I was wrong,
But, I was just a fool,
Too blind to see
You were the only girl for me.
Ah but now I see the light,
And everything’s gonna be all right,
Baby, hold me tight.
Well, I know I was wrong,
But, I was just a fool,
Too blind to see
You were the only girl for me.
Ah but now I see the light,
And everything’s gonna be all right,
Baby, hold me tight.

#36 The Look of Love (Sergio Mendes & Brasil ’66) 👍🏼

Lyrics:
The look of love is in your eyes
A look the time can’t disguise
The look of lo… ve is saying so much more
Than just words could ever say🪄
And what my heart has heard
Well, it takes my breath away🪄
I can hardly wait to hold you
Feel my arms around you
How long I have waited
Waited just to love you
Now that I have found you
You’ve got the look of love
It’s on your face
A look the time can’t erase
Be mine tonight
Let this be just the start
Of so many nights like this
Let’s take a lover’s vow
And then seal it with a kiss🪄
I can hardly wait to hold you
Feel my arms around you
How long I have waited
Waited just to love you
Now that I have found you🪄
Don’t ever go
(Don’t ever go)
Don’t ever go
(Don’t ever go)
Don’t ever go
(Don’t ever go)
Don’t ever go
(Don’t ever go)
Don’t ever go
(Don’t ever go)
Don’t ever go

#35 A Beautiful Morning (The Rascals) 👍🏼

Lyrics:
It’s a beautiful morning, ah
I think I’ll go outside for a while and just smile
Just take in some clean fresh air, boy
(Ain’t) no sense in staying inside
If the weather’s fine and you got the time
It’s your chance to wake up and plan another brand-new day🪄
it’s a beautiful morning, ah
Each bird keeps singing his own song, so long
I’ve got to be on my way now
(Ain’t) no fun just hanging around
I got to cover ground, you couldn’t keep me down
It just ain’t no good if the sun shines
When you’re still inside (shouldn’t hide)
Still inside (shouldn’t hide)
Still inside (shouldn’t hide)
Still in-, oh, oh, oh-oh-oh🪄
Oo-ooh-ah-ah
Oo-ooh-ah-ah🪄
There will be children with robins and flowers
Sunshine caresses each new waking hour🪄
Seems to me that people keep seeing more and more each day
(Gotta say) lead the way
(It’s okay) brand-new day
(Gotta say) it’s okay
Wednesday, Thursday, it’s okay🪄
Oh, oh, oh-oh
Oo-ooh-ah-ah
Oh, oh, oh-oh
Oo-ooh-ah-ah
Whoa, oh, oh, oh-oh
Oo-ooh-ah-ah
Oh (ooh-ah-ah)
Oh, oh, oh-oh
Oo-ooh-ah-ah

Lyrics:
Lady Willpower, it’s now or never
Give your love to me and I’ll shower
Your heart with tenderness endlessly🪄
I know you want to see me but you’re afraid
Of what I might have on my mind
One thing you can be sure of
I’ll take good care of your love
If you will let me give you mine🪄
Lady Willpower, it’s now or never
Give your love to me and I’ll shower
Your heart with tenderness endlessly🪄
Did no one ever tell you the facts of life
Well there’s so much you have to learn
And I would gladly teach you
If I could only reach you
And get your lovin’ in return🪄

Give your love to me and I’ll shower
Your heart with tenderness endlessly

#32 Cowboys To Girls (The Intruders) 👍🏼

Lyrics:
Cowboys to girls
I remember when I used to play shoot ’em up
(Shoot ’em up, bang, bang baby)
I remember when I chased the girls and beat ’em up
But I was young and didn’t understand
But now I’m a grown up man
I know girls are made for kissing
Never knew what I was missing
Now my life is not the same
My whole world has been rearranged
I went from (cowboy to girls)
Oh yes I did
(Cowboys to girls)🪄
I remember when I used to see you jumping rope
(Jumping rope up and down baby)
And I remember when you got your first baby coach
But you were young and didn’t understand
Now you’re a woman and I’m a man
And it’s me that you’re kissing
Ain’t it fun reminiscing
Now our lives are not the same
Our whole world has been rearranged🪄
You went from (pretty dolls to boys)
Oh yes you did
And I went from (cowboys to girls)
Oh yes I did
And it’s me that you’re kissing
Ain’t it fun reminiscing
And my life life is not the same
This whole world has been rearranged
I went from (cowboys to girls)
Oh yes I did
You went from (pretty dolls to boys)
Oh yes I did
I went from (cowboys to girls)

Lyrics:
Get your motor runnin’
Head out on the highway
Lookin’ for adventure
And whatever comes our way🪄
Yeah, darlin’, go make it happen
Take the world in a love embrace
Fire all of your guns at once and
Explode into space🪄
I like smoke and lightnin’

And the feelin’ that I’m under🪄
Yeah, darlin’, go make it happen
Take the world in a love embrace

Explode into space🪄
Like a true nature’s child
We were born, born to be wild

I never wanna die🪄

Get your motor runnin’
Head out on the highway

And whatever comes our way🪄

#30 Those Were The Days (Mary Hopkin) 👍🏼

Lyrics:
Once upon a time there was a tavern
Where we used to raise a glass or two
Remember how we laughed away the hours
Think of all the great things we would do?🪄
Those were the days, my friend
We thought they’d never end
We’d sing and dance forever and a day
We’d live the life we choose
We’d fight and never lose
For we were young and sure to have our way
La-la-la-da-da-da
La-la-la-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da, la-da-da-da-da🪄
Then the busy years went rushing by us
We lost our starry notions on the way
If by chance I’d see you in the tavern
We’d smile at one another and we’d say🪄
Those were the days, my friend
We thought they’d never end
We’d sing and dance forever and a day
We’d live the life we choose
We’d fight and never lose
Those were the days, oh yes, those were the days
La-la-la-da-da-da
La-la-la-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da-da🪄
Just tonight I stood before the tavern
Nothing seemed the way it used to be
In the glass I saw a strange reflection
Was that lonely woman really me?🪄
Those were the days, my friend
We thought they’d never end
We’d sing and dance forever and a day
We’d live the life we choose
We’d fight and never lose
Those were the days, oh yes, those were the days
La-la-la-da-da-da
La-la-la-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da-da
La-la-la-da-da-da
La-la-la-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da-da🪄
Through the door, there came familiar laughter
I saw your face and heard you call my name
Oh, my friend, we’re older but no wiser
For in our hearts, the dreams are still the same🪄
Those were the days, my friend
We thought they’d never end
We’d sing and dance forever and a day
We’d live the life we choose
We’d fight and never lose
Those were the days, oh yes, those were the days
La-la-la-da-da-da
La-la-la-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da-da
La-la-la-da-da-da
La-la-la-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da-da🪄
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la

#29 The Ballad of Bonnie and Clyde (Georgie Fame) 👍🏼

Lyrics:
Bonnie and Clyde were pretty lookin’ people
But I can tell you people, they were the devil’s children
Bonnie and Clyde began their evil doin’
One lazy afternoon down Savannah way
They went and robbed a store, and high-tailed outa that town
Got clean away in a stolen car
And waited till the heat died down🪄
Bonnie and Clyde advanced their reputation
And made the graduation into the banking business
“Reach for the sky”, talking Clyde would holler
As Bonnie loaded dollars in the dewlap bag
Now one brave man-he tried to take ’em alone
They left him lying in a pool of blood
And laughed about it all the way home🪄
Bonnie and Clyde got to be public enemy number one
Running and hiding from every American lawman’s gun
They used to laugh about dying
But deep inside ’em they knew
That pretty soon they’d be lying
Beneath the ground together
Pushing up daisies to welcome the sun and the morning dew🪄
Acting upon reliable information
A federal deputation laid a deadly ambush
When Bonnie and Clyde came walking in the sunshine
A half a dozen carbines opened up on them🪄
Bonnie and Clyde, they lived a lot together
And finally together they died
