Monkees More Of The Monkees Lyrics
1.She

Words:Tommy boyce and bobby hart
Music:Tommy boyce and bobby hart

She, she told me that she loved me,
And like a fool i believed her from the start.
She, she said she'd never hurt me,
But then she turned around and broke my heart

Why am i standing here,
Missing her and wishing she were here.
She only did me wrong;
I'm better off alone.

She, she devoured all my sweet love,
Took all i had and then she fed me dirt.
She, she laughed while i was cryin'.
It was such a joke to see the way it hurt.

Why am i standing here,
Missing her and wishing she were here.
She only did me wrong;
I'm better off alone.

And now i know just why she
Keeps me hangin' 'round.
She needs someone to walk on,
So her feet don't touch the ground.
But i love her,
I need her,
I want her.
Yea! yea! yea! yea! yea! yea! she!


Why am i standing here,
Missing her and wishing she were here.
She only did me wrong now;
I'm better off alone.

Why am i missing her?
I should be kissing her.


2.When Love Comes Knockin' At Your Door

Words:neil sedaka and carole bayer
Music:neil sedaka and carole bayer

When love comes knockin' at your door
Just open up and let 'im in.
It's gonna be a magic carpet ride;
So little girl now don't you run and hide.

I know that you've been hurt before
But don't you be afraid no more.
Throw off the chains that bind
And leave the past behind;
When love comes knocking at your door.

When love comes knocking at your door
Just open up and let 'im in.
It's gonna be a magic carpet ride;
So little girl now don't you run and hide.
You'll see a rainbow ev'ry day,
The sun will shine in ev'ry way.
Throw off the chains that bind
And leave the past behind;
No need to worry anymore,
When love comes knocking at your door
At your door,
At your door,
At your door.
Ah.


3.Mary, Mary

Words:michael nesmith
Music:michael nesmith

Mary, mary, where you goin' to?
Mary, mary, can i go too.
This one thing i will vow ya,
I'd rather die than to live without ya.
Mary, mary, where you goin' to?

Mary, mary, tell me truly
What did i do to make you leave me.
Whatever it was i didn't mean to,
You know i never would try and hurt ya.
Mary, mary, where you goin' to?

What more, mary, can i do
To prove my love is truly yours?
I've done more now than a clear-thinkin' man would do.

Mary, mary, it's not over.
Where you go, i will follow.
'til i win your love again
And walk beside you,
But until then.
Mary, mary, where you goin' to?

Mary, mary, where you goin' to?
Mary, where you goin' to?
Mary, mary, mary, mary, mary, where you goin' to?


4.Hold On Girl

Words:Ben raleigh, billy carr, & jack keller
Music:Ben raleigh, billy carr, & jack keller

I know about the guy who treated you so bad,
He took your love and then just walked away.
I know that you have got a reason to be sad
But help is on its way.

Hold on girl be a little bit stronger,
Hold on girl wait a little bit longer,
Hold on girl, help is on its way.

I know you feel as though your world is at an end,
But you don't have to live with yesterday.
I promise you the sun is gonna shine again,
And help is on its way.

Hold on girl, now that we are together,
Hold on girl, things are gonna be better,
Hold on girl, help is on its way.


5.Your Auntie Grizelda

She knows her mind all right, your auntie grizelda,
She says she knows my kind, she might, maybe so.
Oh, yeah, she's raised you right, your auntie grizelda,
You only know the things she wants you to know.

I know she's having a fit,
She doesn't like me a bit,
No bird of grace ever lit on auntie grizelda.

You can't begrudge her style, your auntie grizelda,
She couldn't budge a smile and do it for free.
So righteous making fudge, your auntie grizelda,
So proper judging others over her tea.

You look just like her you do,
I know by looking at you,
That you've been listening to your auntie grizelda.


Oh, no, don't look at me like auntie grizelda
It takes much more to be someone of your own.
You've got to make it free from auntie grizelda
Or just like her you'll have to make it alone.

I know she's having a fit,
She doesn't like me a bit,
No bird of grace ever lit on auntie grizelda.

Auntie grizelda, auntie grizelda


6.I'm Not Your Steppin' Stone

(i'm not your) steppin' stone

I i i i i'm not your stepping stone
I i i i i'm not your stepping stone

You're trying to make your mark in society
Your using all the tricks that you used on me.
You're reading all them high fashion magazines
The clothes you're wearin' girl are causing public scenes.

I said
I i i i i'm not your stepping stone
I i i i i'm not your stepping stone
Not your stepping stone,
Not your stepping stone.

When i first met you girl you didn't have no shoes
Now you're walking 'round like you're front page news.
You've been awful careful 'bout the friends you choose
But you won't find my name in your book of who's who.

I said
I i i i i'm not your stepping stone
I i i i i'm not your stepping stone
Not your stepping stone,
Not your stepping stone.


7.Look Out Here Comes Tomorrow

Look out, here comes tomorrow,
That's when i'll have to choose.
How i wish i could borrow,
Someone else's shoes.

Mary, oh what a sweet girl,
Lips like strawberry pie.
Sandra, the long hair and pig tails,
Can't make up my mind.

I see all kinds of sorrow,
Wish i only loved one.
Look out, here comes tomorrow,
Oh how i wish tomorrow would never come

Told them both that i loved them,
Said it, and it was true.
But i can't have both of them
Don't know what to do.

I see all kinds of sorrow,
Wish i only loved one.
Look out, here comes tomorrow,
Oh how i wish tomorrow would never come


I see all kinds of sorrow,
Wish i only loved one.
Look out, here comes tomorrow,
Oh how i wish tomorrow would never come


8.The Kind Of Girl I Could Love

Words:roger atkins
Music:michael nesmith

Girl, you look mighty good to me
And i know that you've got to be
The kind of girl i could love.

You've got the sweetest pair of eyes
And your kiss would be paradise
You're the kind of girl i could love.

You do something to my soul
That no one's ever done.
If you're looking for true love
Then let me be the one.

Girl, deep in my soul i'm sure
And my heart has no doubt that you're
The kind of girl i could love.
The kind of girl i could love.


9.The Day We Fall In Love

Words:Sandy linzer and denny randell
Music:Sandy linzer and denny randell

There'll be birds singin' ev'rywhere,
And the wind will be blowin' thru your hair.
I'll look in your eyes
And wait for the prize;
Your lips kissing mine
With a love that is real.
And you'll look so young and fair

On the day we fall in love!
You and me
On the day we fall in love.
You'll see!

There'll be rainbows reachin' cross the sky
And we'll beoth be so happy we will cry.
We'll walk hand in hand
In snow or in sand
Whether roses are blooming
Or snowmen stand by.
Time will stop, for you and i

On the day we fall in love!
It will be on the day we fall in love.
You'll see!

And if the lines that i say fall apart,
It's because i won't know where to start.
But you'll undersand when i say them to you,
'cause they'll come straight from my heart.

On the day we fall in love,
You and me,
On the day we fall in love,
You'll see,
You'll see.


10.Sometime In The Morning

Words:Gerry goffin and carole king
Music:Gerry goffin and carole king

Sometime in the morning
A simple thought may occur to you,
And you hold her,
And tell her all the things you never told her.
Your love has shown me things
I never thought i could see;
I didn't know
It could be done so easily.
Now i know
You're where it is for me.

Sometime in the evening
You're sitting there by the fireside
And she'll touch you
And you'll realize how much you never knew before,
How much you couldn't see.
You didn't know
It could be done so easily
Now you know
She's all a girl could be.

Now in her childlike eyes
You see the beauty there
You know it was always there
And you need no longer wear a disguise.

Sometime in the morning
You'll just reach out and she will be there,
Close as the summer air.

Sometime in the morning she will be there.


11.Laugh

Words:Philip margo, mitchell margo, henry medress and jay siegel
music:Philip margo, mitchell margo, henry medress and jay siegel

Ev'ry face that i see is all wrapped up in frowns,
And unfortunately, it kind of gets me down.
Laugh,
'cause the music is funny
Yeah, the bass sounds off-beat.
Ain't that neat.
Laugh,
When you lose all your money,
Or you can't find your shoes
To cover your feet.

It's not so hard to see exactly what i'm after.
Sometimes a tear should fall, but i require giggles and chuckles
Laugh,
When you're keepin' a secret
And it seems to be known
By the rest of the world.
Laugh,
When you go to a party,
And you can't tell the boys
From the girls.

Every face that i see is all wrapped up in frowns
And unfortunately, it kind of gets me down.
Laugh,
At the things that are wrong.
If you thinks it's this song,
Then laugh.
Then laugh.
Then laugh.


12.I'm A Believer

I thought love was only true in fairy tales
Meant for someone else but not for me.
Love was out to get me
That's the way it seemed.
Disappointment haunted all my dreams.

Then i saw her face, now i'm a believer
Not a trace of doubt in my mind.
I'm in love, i'm a believer!
I couldn't leave her if i tried.

I thought love was more or less a given thing,
Seems the more i gave the less i got.
What's the use in tryin'?
All you get is pain.
When i needed sunshine i got rain.

Then i saw her face, now i'm a believer
Not a trace of doubt in my mind.
I'm in love, i'm a believer!
I couldn't leave her if i tried.
