  Don’t Worry Be Happy

  Bobby McFerrin

  Here’s a little song I wrote
  You might want to sing it note for note
  Don’t worry, be happy
  In every life we have some trouble
  But when you worry you make it double
  Don’t worry, be happy
  Don’t worry, be happy now

  don’t worry
  (Ooh, ooh ooh ooh oo-ooh ooh oo-ooh) be happy
  (Ooh, ooh ooh ooh oo-ooh ooh oo-ooh) don’t worry, be happy
  (Ooh, ooh ooh ooh oo-ooh ooh oo-ooh) don’t worry
  (Ooh, ooh ooh ooh oo-ooh ooh oo-ooh) be happy
  (Ooh, ooh ooh ooh oo-ooh ooh oo-ooh) don’t worry, be happy

  Ain’t got no place to lay your head
  Somebody came and took your bed
  Don’t worry, be happy
  The landlord say your rent is late
  He may have to litigate
  Don’t worry, be happy

  Oh, ooh ooh ooh oo-ooh ooh oo-ooh don’t worry, be happy
  Here I give you my phone number, when you worry, call me, I make you happy, don’t worry, be happy)
  Don’t worry, be happy
  Ain’t got no cash, ain’t got no style
  Ain’t got no gal to make you smile
  Don’t worry, be happy
  ‘Cause when you worry your face will frown
  And that will bring everybody down
  So don’t worry, be happy

  Don’t worry, be happy now
  (Ooh, ooh ooh ooh oo-ooh ooh oo-ooh) don’t worry
  (Ooh, ooh ooh ooh oo-ooh ooh oo-ooh) be happy
  (Ooh, ooh ooh ooh oo-ooh ooh oo-ooh) don’t worry, be happy
  (Ooh, ooh ooh ooh oo-ooh ooh oo-ooh) don’t worry
  (Ooh, ooh ooh ooh oo-ooh ooh oo-ooh) be happy
  (Ooh, ooh ooh ooh oo-ooh ooh oo-ooh) don’t worry, be happy

  Now there, is this song I wrote
  I hope you learned note for note
  Like good little children, don’t worry, be happy
  Now listen to what I said, in your life expect some trouble
  When you worry you make it double
  But don’t worry, be happy, be happy now

  don’t worry
  (Ooh, ooh ooh ooh oo-ooh ooh oo-ooh) be happy
  (Ooh, ooh ooh ooh oo-ooh ooh oo-ooh) don’t worry, be happy

  don’t worry
  (Ooh, ooh ooh ooh oo-ooh ooh oo-ooh) be happy
  (Ooh, ooh ooh ooh oo-ooh ooh oo-ooh) don’t worry, be happy

  don’t worry, don’t worry
  (Ooh, ooh ooh ooh oo-ooh ooh oo-ooh) don’t worry, don’t do it, be happy
  (Ooh, ooh ooh ooh oo-ooh ooh oo-ooh) put a smile in your face
  (Ooh, ooh ooh ooh oo-ooh ooh oo-ooh) don’t bring everybody down like this

  don’t worry
  (Ooh, ooh ooh ooh oo-ooh ooh oo-ooh) it will soon pass, whatever it is
  (Ooh, ooh ooh ooh oo-ooh ooh oo-ooh) don’t worry, be happy
  (Ooh, ooh ooh ooh oo-ooh ooh oo-ooh) I’m not worried, I’m happy

  Ooh-ooh-ooh

  Somewhere over the rainbow
  Way up high
  And the dreams that you dream of
  Once in a lullaby, oh

  Somewhere over the rainbow
  Bluebirds fly
  And the dreams that you dream of
  Dreams really do come true-ooh-ooh
  Someday I’ll wish upon a star
  Wake up where the clouds are far behind me
  Where trouble melts like lemon drops
  High above the chimney tops that’s where
  You’ll find me, oh

  Somewhere over the rainbow
  Bluebirds fly
  And the dream that you dare to
  Oh why, oh why can’t I? I

  Someday I’ll wish upon a star
  Wake up where the clouds are far behind me
  Where trouble melts like lemon drops
  High above the chimney top that’s where you’ll find me
  Oh, somewhere over the rainbow way up high
  And the dream that you dare to
  Why, oh why can’t I? I

  You’ll Never Find Another Love Like Mine

  Lou Rawls

  You’ll never find, as long as you live
  Someone who loves you tender like I do
  You’ll never find, no matter where you search
  Someone who cares about you the way I do
  Whoa, I’m not braggin’ on myself, baby
  But I’m the one who loves you
  And there’s no one else, no-oh-oh one else

  Someone to understand you like I do
  You’ll never find the rhythm, the rhyme
  All the magic we shared, just us two
  Whoa, I’m not tryin’ to make you stay, baby
  But I know somehow, some day, some way

  You are (You’re gonna miss my lovin’)

  Whoa, oh, oh, oh, oh
  (You’re gonna miss my lovin’)
  Late in the midnight hour, baby
  (You’re gonna miss my lovin’)
  When it’s cold outside
  (You’re gonna miss my lovin’)
  You’re gonna miss, you’re gonna miss my love (Miss my love)

  You’ll never find another love like mine
  Someone who needs you like I do
  You’ll never see what you’ve found in me
  You’ll keep searching and searching your whole life through
  Whoa, I don’t wish you no bad luck, baby
  But there’s no ifs and buts or maybes

  You’re gonna miss my (You’re gonna miss my lovin’)
  You’re gonna miss my lovin’

  I know you’re gonna miss my lovin’
  (You’re gonna miss my lovin’)
  You’re gonna miss, you’re gonna miss my love (Miss my love)

  Whoa, oh, oh, oh, oh
  (You’re gonna miss my lovin’)
  Late in the midnight hour, baby
  (You’re gonna miss my lovin’)
  When it gets real cold outside
  (You’re gonna miss my lovin’)
  I know, I know that you are gonna miss my love (Miss my love)

  Let me tell you that you’re gonna miss my lovin’ (You’re gonna miss my lovin’)
  Yes you will, baby (You’re gonna miss my lovin’)
  When I’m long gone (You’re gonna miss my lovin’)
  I know, I know, I know that you are gonna miss my love (Miss my love)
  You’re gonna miss my lovin’

  One in a Million You

  Larry Graham

  Love had played its games on me so long
  I started to believe I’d never find anyone
  Doubt had tried to convince me to give in
  Said, “You can’t win”

  But one day the sun came a shinin’ through
  The rain had stopped and the skies were blue
  And oh, what a revelation to see
  Someone was saying “I love you” to me

  A one in a million
  Chance of a lifetime
  And life showed compassion
  And sent to me a stroke of love called “You”
  A one in a million you

  was a lonely man with empty arms to fill
  Then I found a piece of happiness to call my own
  And life is worth livin’ again
  For to love you, to me, is to live

  A one in a million
  Chance of a lifetime
  And life showed compassion
  And sent to me a stroke of love called “You”
  A one in a million you

  A one in a million
  Chance of a lifetime
  And life showed compassion
  And sent to me a stroke of love called “You”
  One in a million you

  A one in a million you

  Where Is the Love

  Donny Hathaway and Roberta Flack

  Where is the love? (Where is the love?)
  Where is the love? (Where is the love?)
  Where is the love? (Where is the love?)
  Where is the love?
  Where is the love?
  You said, you’d give to me
  As soon as you were free
  Will it ever be?
  Where is the love?
  You told me that you didn’t love him
  And you were gonna say, goodbye
  But if you really didn’t mean it
  Why did you have to lie?
  Where is the love?
  You said, was mine, all mine
  Till the end of time
  Was it just a lie?
  Where is the love?
  If you had, had a sudden change of heart
  I wish that you would tell me so
  Don’t leave me hangin’ on the promises
  You’ve got to let me know
  Oh, how I wish, I never met you
  I guess, it must have been my fate
  To fall in love with someone else’s love
  All I can do is wait
  That’s all I can do, yeah yeah
  Where is the love? (Where is the love?)
  Where is the love? (Where is the love?)
  Where is the love? (Where is the love?)
  Where is the love? (Where is the love?)
  Where is the love? (Where is the love?)
  Where is the love? (Where is the love?)
  Where is the love? (Where is the love?)
  Where is the love? (Where is the love?)

  Just My Imagination (Running Away with Me)

  The Temptations

  Ooh

  Each day through my window I watch her as she passes by
  I say to myself, “You’re such a lucky guy”
  To have a girl like her is truly a dream come true
  Out of all the fellows in the world, she belongs to me

  But it was just my imagination
  Runnin’ away with me
  It was just my imagination
  Runnin’ away with me

  Ooh (soon)
  Soon we’ll be married and raise a family (oh yeah)
  A cozy little home out in the country with two children, maybe three
  I tell you I can visualize it all
  This couldn’t be a dream, far too real it all seems

  But it was just my imagination, once again
  Runnin’ away with me
  Tell you, it was just my imagination
  Runnin’ away with me

  Every night on my knees I pray
  Dear Lord, hear my plea
  Don’t ever let another take her love from me
  Or I would surely die, hmm
  (Her love is) Heavenly, when her arms enfold me
  I hear a tender rhapsody
  But in reality, she doesn’t even know me

  Just my imagination…

  Once again
  Runnin’ away with me, oh
  Tell you it was just my imagination
  Runnin’ away with me

  I’ve never met her but I can’t forget her
  (Just my imagination) Ooh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
  Runnin’ away with me, ooh
  Just my imagination
  Runnin’ away with me

  The Closer I Get to You

  Roberta Flack

  The closer I get to you
  The more you make me see
  By giving me all you got
  Your love has captured me

  Over and over again
  I tried to tell myself that we
  Could never be more than friends
  And all the while inside I knew it was real
  The way you make me feel

  Lying here next to you
  Time just seems to fly
  Needing you more and more
  Lets give love a try (oh, oh, oh)

  Sweeter than sweeter love grows
  And heaven’s there for those
  Who fool the tricks of time
  With the hearts of love they find true love
  In a special way

  The closer I get to you
  The more you make me see
  By giving me all you got
  Your love has captured me

  Over and over again
  I try to tell myself that we
  Could never be more than friends
  And all the while inside I knew it was real
  The way you make me feel

  The closer I get to you
  The more you make me see
  By giving you all I got
  Your love has captured me

  The closer I get to you
  The feeling comes over me (me too)
  Pulling closer, sweet as the gravity

  to you

  Roberta Flack –The closer I get to you

  Regrets

  James Brown

  You know, when a person does another person wrong
  And there’s probably a lot of ways to say “I’m sorry”, but…
  And after that, hey, all you have to live with is your memories
  But don’t let it get you down, ’cause it happens to the best of us

  Oh, I wish that I could take back all the things I’ve done to hurt you
  I didn’t mean to be so cruel and yet, I know I’ve been selfish
  And at time, a jealous fool
  And every thoughtless thing that I’ve done keeps coming back to haunt me
  Because you took each one to your little somber heart
  And I realize, that it’s my fault but we’ve grown worlds apart

  Oh, I have regrets (I have regrets) regrets
  For my mistaken thinking only of myself
  Now that all I have left are these mean regrets
  (I have regrets) regrets
  For the things I did, somehow I just can’t forgive
  I guess I’ll always have to live with these mean regrets

  If I could right the wrong that I’ve done
  Maybe I could stop believing
  There’s so much I’m guilty of, oh yeah
  Yet it’s too late to say I’m sorry
  ‘Cause being sorry just ain’t enough
  ‘Cause with each angry word that I’ve said
  Your love for me was dying, and each word left a lasting scar
  And now I feel so helpless, wishing I could change the way things are

  I have regrets (I have regrets)
  I have regrets for my mistaken thinking only of myself
  And now that all I have left are these mean regrets (I have regrets) regrets
  For the things I did, somehow you just can’t forgive
  And I guess I’ll always have to live with these regrets

  Oh baby, oh baby
  My, my, my, my, my, thee
  Oh Lord, oh Lord
  Help me please

  If I could right the wrong that I’ve done
  Maybe I could stop believing
  There’s so much I’m guilty of, help me
  Yet it’s too late to say I’m sorry
  ‘Cause being sorry just ain’t enough

  I have regrets (I have regrets)
  Oh, regrets for my mistaken thinking only, so selfish, of myself
  And now that all I have left are these regrets
  (I have regrets) ahh, yeah baby
  I guess I just can’t forgive
  And I’ll always have to live with these mean regrets (I have regrets) yea-ah, ahh

  Oh baby, don’t let me to suffer so long
  Come on over to my place (I have regrets)
  Come on over to my place
  Or let me know where you are
  I can please, if I can get your phone number
  And when I call…
  Then when she comes on, and says (I have regrets)
  “You’re having a message, you’re leaving with me”
  But I know they don’t understand, you and I
  And oh, I don’t want the world to know about my regrets (I have regrets)
  Ah, no no, no no, no
  Oh, can I, can I walk home?
  Can I walk home, can I walk on home? (I have regrets)
  Ahh, no, now now now

  I’m a thousand miles away, and all I need is your tender voice to lead me on
  ‘Cause I lost someone, yeah (I have regrets)
  Yeah yeah, I lost someone, yeah
  I lost someone
  I don’t want no stranger to come in my home, and enjoy (I have regrets)
  Enjoy what we’ve built, baby
  Aw! Aw!

  James Brown –Regrets
