1.My Love And Devotion
My love and devotion, will always be true
Now and forever, i live for you
My love and devotion, are yours, yours alone
Kiss me beloved, say you're my own!
I kiss your lips sweet an' tender, they open heaven's door
Won't you surrender, forever more？
My love will grow deeper, as time passes by
Deep as the ocean and as high as the sky
My love and devotion, are yours 'till i die!
＜ instrumental break ＞
Deep as the ocean and as high as the sky
My love and devotion, are yours 'till i die!
2.The Rose Tattoo
He wore the rose tattoo,
To prove his love was true . . .
But hearts can lie, so why deny,
That roses fade and love can die . . .
She'll wait her whole life through,
Like fools an' dreamer's do . . .
She'll go on caring for one who's wearing,
The rose . . . the rose tattoo . . .
＜ instrumental verse ＞
She'll wait her whole life through,
Like fools an' dreamer's do . . .
She'll go on caring for one who's wearing,
The rose . . . the rose tattoo . . .
3.Kewpie Doll
Well i took my baby to the carnival
An' i heard that barker yell ( hey! hey! )
'come on an' win yourself a purdy kewpie doll,
All you gotta do is ring the bell!'
Well i swung the hammer just as hard as i could,
An' you should have heard the wild applause . . . ( hooray! )
When 'bong' went the bell
And the man said,
'well, i guess the kewpie doll is yours!'( yeah yeah! )
I said, 'gimmie a doggie or a teddy bear
Or a high school banner for my wall,
'cause i got me a real live kewpie doll
An' she's the cutest one of them all!'
( kew kew kewpie doll! kew kew kewpie doll!
Kew kew kewpie doll! kew kew kewpie doll! )
Ah then, we walked down the midway
'till we saw a crowd an' the man said 'try your skill,
Five shots for a quarter, make a duck hit the water
An' give your little baby a thrill'
Well, my baby smiled an' she kissed me once
An' i felt i was nine feet tall
Oh! five shots crashed and the five ducks splashed
An' the man gave me a kewpie doll!
I said, 'gimmie a doggie or a teddy bear
Or a high school banner for my wall,
'cause i got me a real live kewpie doll
An' she's the cutest one of them all!'
( kew kew kewpie doll! kew kew kewpie doll!
Kew kew kewpie doll! kew kew kewpie doll! )
Ah then, my baby said, 'honey, let m try my luck
An' knock the milk bottles off the shelf!'
You should have seen this chick, she was a dead-eye dick
Hey! i couldn't do it better myself!
An' then my face got red and my chest swelled up
An' my eyes bugged outta my head
'cause when the prize turned out to be a kewpie doll
This is what my baby said, she said . . .
'gimmie a doggie or a teddy bear
Or a high school banner for my wall,
'cause i got me a real live kewpie doll
An' he's the cutest one of them all!'
I said, 'she's the cutest one of them all!'
An' she's the cutest one of them all! ( kew kew kewpie doll! )
An' she's the cutest one of them all! ( kew kew kewpie doll! )
An' she's the cutest one of them all!
4.The Things I Didn't Do
I never said i loved you as i should have done
I never told you darling you're the only one
Will i do on regretting now my whole life through
The things i didn't do？
I never held my arms around you long enough
I never dared to make my kisses strong enough
Will i do on regretting now my whole life through
The things i didn't do？
I was too much afraid, afraid to get burned
In a one way romance!
So now i'm alone, too late i have learned
I never gave love a chance!
But if there is an answer to my every prayer
If you can find within your heart that you still care
I'll gladly spend my life just makin' up to you
The things i didn't do!
＜ instrumental break ＞
I never gave love a chance!

5.Tumbling Tumbleweeds
See them tumbling down,
Pledging their love to the ground!
Lonely, but free, i'll be found,
Drifting along with the tumbling tumbleweeds . . .
Cares of the past are behind,
Nowhere to go, but i'll find,
Just where the trail will wind,
Drifting along with the tumblin' tumbleweeds . . .
I know when night is gone,
That a new world's born at dawn!
I'll keep rolling along,
Deep in my heart as a song,
Here on the range i belong,
Drifting along with the tumbling tumbleweeds . . .
( tumbleweeds, tumbleweeds!
See them tumbling down,
Pledging their love to the ground! )
Lonely, but free, i'll be found,
Drifting along with the tumblin' tumbleweeds . . .
I know ( i know! ) when night is gone ( hmmm . . . )
That a new world's born at dawn!
I'll keep rolling along,
Deep in my heart as a song,
Here on the range i belong,
( drifting along with the tumbling tumbleweeds . . . )
Drifting along with the tumblin' tumbleweeds . . .
( tumbleweeds, tumbleweeds . . . )
Tumble . . . weeds . . .
6.Just Born(To Be Your Baby)
( just born to be your baby . . .
Just born to be . . . )
Some people are born to be doctors,
Some are born to be lumber jacks
Some are born just to take life easy
Others are born to break their backs!
But i'm just born to be your baby
Just born to love you baby,
It's true . . .

Just born to love you baby,
It's true . . . ( it's true, it's true! )
Nobody else will do!
( just born to be your baby . . .

Some people will search for love a lifetime
Some never feel love in their hearts
But i was born with a silver spoon
I had your love'a right from the start!

7.Ivy Rose
Ivy rose, ivy rose, i'm in love with you
Cling to me, cling to me, like a vine!
I'll be yours when tonight is a memory
I'll be yours and you'll always be mine!
As the years disappear in the twilight of time
With a sigh we will fondly recall ( fondly recall! )
All the plans that we made, how we kissed unafraid
In the shade of the old ivy rose!
Ivy rose, ivy rose, i'm in love with you
Cling to me, cling to me, like a vine!
I'll be yours when tonight is a memory
I'll be yours and you'll always be mine!
Hand in hand as we stand 'neath the old campus moon
Make believe that tomorrow is here ( here my love! )
Picture me close to you, in a dream house for two
Where the ivy grows greener each year!
Ivy rose, ivy rose, i'm in love with you
Cling to me, cling to me, like a vine!
I'll be yours when tonight is a memory
I'll be yours and you'll always . . .
Be mine! ( you'll be mine! )
8.Watchin' The Trains Go By
Woo, he's watchin' the choo choo,
Woo, he watchin' the train!
Watchin' the trains go by, watchin' the trains go by
Wish i had the ticket that i can't afford
Hear that old conductor holler 'all aboard!'
Wonder how this world looks, outside of picture books
Rocky mountains, rollin' plains an' desert skies
Passin' before my eyes
When the whistle blows toot toot toot,
The engine goes chug chug
And i hear that bell go clang clang clang,
And my heart gives a tug tug tug
Watchin' the trains go by, i'm just a small town guy
Wishin' i could hurry up an' start to pack
Grab my gal and hop the train an' not come back
Instead of that i'm sitting by the railroad track,
Watchin' the trains go by, watchin' the trains go by!
There's a choo choo comin' down the track,
I can almost see it's smoky stack
But it ain't no use, alas i lack
Guess i'll always be here, watchin' the trains go by!
Oh! how i'd love to stop it! ( watchin' the trains go by! )
How i'd love to hop it!
Wish i had a ticket that i can't afford ( ho ho ho! )
Hear that old conductor holler 'yes, all aboard!'
( i often wonder how this world looks . . . ) like to see some
traffic!
( outside of picture books . . . ) outside the national
geographic!
Rocky mountains, rollin' plains an' desert skies ( ho ho ho! )
Passin' before my eyes
When the whistle blows toot toot toot,
The engine goes chug chug chug chug
And i hear that bell go clang clang clang,
And my heart gives a tug tug tug
I'm watchin' the trains go by, i'm just a small town guy
Wishin' i could hurry up an' start to pack
Grab my gal and hop the train an' not come back
Instead of that i'm sitting by the railroad track,
Watchin' the trains go by, watchin' the trains go by!
Woo, i'm watchin' the trains go by . . . watchin' the trains go
by . . .
Woo, i'm watchin' the trains go . . . watchin' the trains go by
. . .
9.Rollin' Stone
Come home rollin' stone,
Home where you belong ( belong, oh! come . . . )
Oh! come home rollin' stone,
You've been away too long!
I wandered into kansas a-singin' a song
Singin' doodle-doo-day, all day!
And then i got a feelin' that somethin' was wrong
When a voice in my heart seemed to say . . .
Come home rollin' stone,
Home where you belong, belong,
Oh! come home rollin' stone,
You've been away too long!
I left my love a-weepin' in old arkansas
Left her for the freight cars that passed
But last night in a tavern, i swear that i saw
Her face in a shimmering glass . . .
( come home rollin' stone,
Home where you belong, belong,
Oh! come home rollin' stone,
You've been away too long . . . )
Now, when i hear that lonesome old train comin' near
And the moon is over the track
Oh somewhere from the shadows i know that i'll hear
Her voice in the clickity clack!
Oh come home rollin' stone,
Home where you belong, belong,
Oh! come home rollin' stone,
You've been away too long . . . ( come home . . . )
