2.Skinny Minnie

My skinny Minnie is a crazy chick,
Six foot high and one foot thick
Do I love her
Does a boy love pie
She is the apple of my eye,
Skinny Minnie
She ain't skinny, she's tall, that's all

Tho' her shadow doesn't take much ground
What there is sure gets around
What there ain't that's what she be
'N' even that's too much for me
Skinny Minnie
She ain't skinny, she's tall, that's all

Slightly slimmer than a fishing pole
One half rock and one half roll
Dig that chick from either side
Man, you'll yell 'Where did she hide'
Skinny Minnie
She ain't skinny, she's tall, that's all

Ain't she sweet?
See her walking down that street.
Yes I ask you very confidentially,
Ain't she sweet?

Ain't she nice?
Look her over once or twice.
Yes I ask you very confidentially,
Ain't she nice?

Just cast an eye in her direction.
Oh me oh my, ain't that perfection?

Oh I repeat,
Well, don't you think that's kinda neat?
Yes I ask you very confidentially,
Ain't she sweet?

Are headed for the gym to the sock hop ball
The joint is really jumping
The cats are going wild
The music really sends me
I dig that crazy style 'cause

Gonna kick off my shoes
Roll up my faded jeans
Grab my rock'n'roll baby
Pour on the steam

I'm gonna rock'n'roll
Till the early early night 'cause

19.If You Love Me Baby(Take Out Some Insurance On Me/Baby)


20.You Are My Sunshine

Written:Jimmy Davis/Charles Mitchell

The other night dear, as I lay sleeping
I dreamed I held you in my arms
When I awoke, dear, I was mistaken
So I hung my head and I cried.

You are my sunshine, my only sunshine
You make me happy when skies are gray
You'll never know dear, how much I miss you
Please don't take my sunshine away

I'll always love you and make you happy,
If you will only say the same.
But if you leave me to love another,
You'll regret it all some day:

CHORUS
You told me once, dear, you really loved me
And no one else could come between.
But not you've left me and love another;
You have shattered all my dreams:

CHORUS

But it's alright honey, uh huh

Hey baby worry, don't make worry, uh huh
Hey baby hurry, don't make worry, uh huh

23.Hallelujah, I Love Her So

Lyrics:Ray Charles
Music:Ray Charles

Let me tell 'bout a gal I know,
She's my baby and she lives next door.
Every morning 'fore the sun comes up,
She brings my coffee in my favorite cup.
That's why I know, yes, I know,
Hallelujah, I just love her so.

When I'm in trouble and I got no friend,
I know she'll go with me down to the end.
Everybody asks me how do I know,
I smile a damn and say she told me so.
That why I know, yes I know,
Hallelujah, I just love her so.

Now if I call her on the telephone,
Tell her that I'm all alone,
By the time I count from one to four,
I hear her on my door.
In the evening when the sun goes down,
When there ain't nobody hanging 'round,
She just kisses me, and then holds me tight.
And tells me, baby, everything's gonna be alright.
That's why I know, yes I know,
Hallelujah, I just love her so.
That's why I know, yes I know,
Hallelujah, I just, I love her so.
That's why I know, yes I know,
Hallelujah, I just love her so.
