#14 Too Busy Thinking About My Baby (Marvin Gaye) 👍🏼

Lyrics:
Listen to me people
I ain’t got time to think about Money
Or what it can buy
And I ain’t got time to sit down and wonder
What make the birdies fly🪄
And I don’t have time to think about
What makes the flowers grow
And I’ve never given it a second thought
To where the rivers flow🪄
And I ain’t got time for nothin’ else🪄
I ain’t got time to discuss the weather
And how long it’s going to last
And I ain’t got time to do no studying
Once I get out of class🪄
I’m telling you I’m just a fellow with a one track mind
And when it comes to thinkin’ about
Anything but my baby
I just don’t have the time🪄
Oh yeah
And I ain’t got time for nothin’ else
Don’t you know I, I’m thinking about my baby
I ain’t got time for nothin’ else🪄
Yeah the world could ever match her wealth
She’s some kinda wonderful
Got heaven right here on earth🪄
‘Cause I’m just a fellow with a one track mind
And when it comes to thinkin about
Anything but my baby
I just don’t have the time🪄
I’m too busy thinkin’ about my baby
Oh I ain’t got time for nothin’ else
Too busy thinkin’ about my baby
Ain’t got time for nothing else

#13 Hair (The Cowsills) 👍🏼

Lyrics:
She asked him why
Why I’m a hairy guy
I’m hairy noon and nighty-night night
My hair is a fright🪄
I’m hairy high and low
But don’t ask me why
‘Cause he don’t know
It’s not for lack of bread
Like the Grateful Dead, darlin’🪄
Gimme a head with hair
Long, beautiful hair
Shining, gleaming
Streaming, flaxen, waxen🪄
Give me down to there (hair)
Shoulder length or longer (hair)
Here, baby, there, mama
Everywhere, daddy, daddy🪄
Hair (hair, hair, hair, hair, hair)
Grow it, show it
Long as I can grow it
My hair🪄
I let it fly in the breeze
And get caught in the trees
Give a home for the fleas in my hair
A home for the fleas
A hive for the buzzin’ bees
A nest for birds
There ain’t no words for the beauty and the splendor
The wonder of my🪄
Hair (hair, hair, hair, hair, hair)
Grow it, show it
Long as I can grow it
My hair🪄
I want it long, straight, curly, fuzzy
Snaggy, shaggy, ratsy, matsy
Oily, greasy, fleecy
Shining, gleaming, streaming
Flaxen, waxen🪄
Knotted, polka-dotted
Twisted, beaded, braided
Powdered, flowered, and confettied
Bangled, tangled, spangled, and spaghettied🪄
Oh, say, can you see
My eyes if you can
Then my hair’s too short🪄
Down to here
Down to there
Down to there?
Down to where?
It stops by itself🪄
Don’t never have to cut it
‘Cause it stops by itself🪄
Oh, give me a head with hair
Long, beautiful hair
Shining, gleaming, streaming
Flaxen, waxen🪄
Now won’t you gimme it down to there? (hair)
Shoulder length or longer (hair)
Here, baby, there, mama
Everywhere, daddy, daddy🪄
Hair (hair, hair, hair, hair, hair)
Grow it, show it
Long as I can grow it
My hair (hair, hair, hair, hair, hair)
Grow it, show it
Long as I can grow it
My hair (hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair)
Hair

Look over yonder
What do you see?
The sun is a-rising
Most definitely🪄
A new day is coming (ooh, ooh)

#11 One (Three Dog Night) 👍🏼

Lyrics:
One is the loneliest number that you’ll ever do
Two can be as bad as one
It’s the loneliest number since the number one🪄
No is the saddest experience you’ll ever know
Yes, it’s the saddest experience you’ll ever know🪄
‘Cause one is the loneliest number that you’ll ever do
One is the loneliest number, whoa-oh, worse than two🪄
It’s just no good anymore since you went away
Now I spend my time just making rhymes of yesterday🪄
One is the loneliest number
One is the loneliest number
One is the loneliest number that you’ll ever do
One is the loneliest
One is the loneliest
One is the loneliest number that you’ll ever do🪄
It’s just no good anymore since you went away (number)
One is the loneliest (number)
One is the loneliest (number)
One is the loneliest number that you’ll ever do (number)
One is the loneliest (number)
One is the loneliest (number)
One is the loneliest number that you’ll ever do (number)
One (one is the loneliest number that you’ll ever do)(number)
One is the loneliest number that you’ll ever do (number)
One is the loneliest number that you’ll ever do

#9 Build Me Up Buttercup (The Foundations) 👍🏼

Lyrics:
Why do you build me up (build me up) Buttercup, baby
Just to let me down (let me down) and mess me around

When you say you will (say you will) but I love you still
I need you (I need you) more than anyone, darlin’

(Hey, hey, hey!) I’ll be home
I’ll be beside the phone waiting for you
Ooo-oo-ooo, ooo-oo-ooo🪄
Why do you build me up (build me up) Buttercup, baby
Just to let me down (let me down) and mess me around

So build me up (build me up) Buttercup, don’t break my heart🪄
To you I’m a toy, but I could be the boy you adore
If you’d just let me know (bah-dah-dah)
Although you’re untrue, I’m attracted to you all the more
Why do I need you so🪄
(Hey, hey, hey!) Baby, baby, try to find
(Hey, hey, hey!) A little time and I’ll make you happy
(Hey, hey, hey!) I’ll be home
I’ll be beside the phone waiting for you
Ooo-oo-ooo, ooo-oo-ooo🪄
Why do you build me up (build me up) Buttercup, baby

So build me up (build me up) Buttercup, don’t break my heart🪄
I-I-I need you-oo-oo more than anyone, baby
You know that I have from the start
So build me up (build me up) Buttercup, don’t break my heart

#8 I’ll Never Fall In Love Again (Tom Jones) 👍🏼

Lyrics:
I’ve been in love so many times
Thought I knew the score
But now you’ve treated me so wrong
I can’t take anymore
And it looks like
I’m never gonna fall in love again🪄
Fall in love,
I’m never gonna
fall in love
I mean it
Fall in love🪄
again🪄
All those things I heard about you
I thought they were only lies
But when I caught you in his arms
I just broke down and cried
And it looks like
I’m never gonna fall in love again🪄
Fall in love,
no, I’m never gonna
fall in love
I mean it, I mean it🪄
Fall in love🪄
again🪄
I gave my heart so easily
I cast aside my pride
But when you fell for someone else, baby
I broke up all inside
And it looks like <sob>🪄
I’m never gonna fall in love again🪄
That’s why I’m a-singin’ it🪄
Fall in love,
no, I’m never gonna
fall in love
Please don’t make me
Fall in love🪄
again………….

Lyrics:
End of the spring
And here she comes back
Hi, hi, hi, hi there
Them summer days
Those summer days🪄
That’s when I had
Most of my fun, back
Hi, hi, hi, hi there

And everything is true
Ooh, yeah, yeah🪄
Hot fun in the summertime

Hot fun in the summertime🪄
First of the fall
And then she goes back
Bye, bye, bye, bye there
Them summer days

When I want to
Out of school
County fair in the country sun
And everything is cool
Ooh, yeah, yeah🪄

#6 Dizzy (Tommy Roe) 👍🏼

Lyrics:
Dizzy
I’m so dizzy, my head is spinning
Like a whirlpool, it never ends
And it’s you, girl, making it spin
You’re making me dizzy🪄
First time that I saw you, girl, I knew that I just had to make you mine
But it’s so hard to talk to you with fellas hanging round you all the time
I want you for my sweet pet
But you keep playing hard to get
I’m going around in circles all the time🪄
Dizzy
I’m so dizzy, my head is spinning
Like a whirlpool, it never ends
And it’s you, girl, making it spin
You’re making me dizzy🪄
I finally got to talk to you and I told you just exactly how I felt
Then I held you close to me and kissed you and my heart began to melt
Girl, you’ve got control of me
‘Cause I’m so dizzy I can’t see
I need to call a doctor for some help🪄
Dizzy
I’m so dizzy, my head is spinning
Like a whirlpool, it never ends
And it’s you, girl, making it spin
You’re making me dizzy🪄
My head is spinning
Like a whirlpool, it never ends
And it’s you, girl, making it spin
You’re making me dizzy
You’re making me dizzy

#5 Everyday People (Sly & The Family Stone) 👍🏼

Lyrics:
Sometimes I’m right and I can be wrong
My own beliefs are in my song
The butcher, the banker, the drummer and then
Makes no difference what group I’m in🪄
I am everyday people, yeah, yeah🪄
There is a blue one who can’t accept
The green one for living with
A fat one tryin’ to be a skinny one
Different strokes for different folks
And so on and so on and scooby-dooby-dooby
We got to live together🪄
I am no better and neither are you
We’re all the same, whatever we do
You love me, you hate me
You know me and then
You can’t figure out the bag I’m in🪄
I am everyday people🪄
There is a long hair
That doesn’t like the short hair
For being such a rich one
That will not help the poor one
Different strokes for different folks
And so on and so on, scooby-dooby-dooby
We got to live together🪄
There is a yellow one that won’t
Accept the black one
That won’t accept the red one
That won’t accept the white one
Different strokes for different folks
And so on and so on and
Scooby-dooby-dooby🪄
I am everyday people
