1.I Love You, I Love You(I Will Never Let You Go)
Lyrics:Ray Charles
Music:Ray Charles
I live only for you my love
Just as sure as the stars above
I love you, I love you, I always will
I will not let you go
I dream only of you my love
You're the only girl that I ever think of
I love you, I love you, 'n I always will
I will not let you go
Sometimes when I am lonely
Have nothing to do or say
Thinking of you only
Helps to pass my lonely time away
I'd like to sit around and sing to you my love
Just moan like a mourning dove
You see, I love you, I love you, I always will
I will not let you . . .
{solos}
Sometimes when I am lonely
Have nothing to do or say
Thinking of you only
Helps to pass my lonely time away
I'd like to sing to you my love
Just hum like a mourning dove
Oh, I love you, I crave you, 'n I always will
I will not let you go, no, no!
I will not let you go

Lyrics:Herbert Leventhal

1) If I give you my love, what will you give in
return, if I give you my love
Will you cause my heart to yearn , and will it bring
me sadness, with so many tears
and will it bring me gladness , all through out the
years
2) if I give you my word , will you give me your word
too
if I vow to yours, promes me that you'll be true
am I playing with fire , tell me are you concerned ,
if I give you my love
what wil you give in return
( SOLO PIANO, GUITAR )
am I playing with fire, tell me are you concerned

10.How Long Blues
Lyrics:Leroy Carr
Music:Leroy Carr
How long, baby how long,
Has that evening train been gone?
How long, how how long, baby how long?
Went to the station, didn't see no train.
Down in my heart, I have an aching pain.
How long, how how long, baby how long?
I feel disgusted, I feel so bad
Thinking 'bout the good time that I once have had.
How long, how how long, baby how long?
I could see the green grass growing on the hill;
I ain't seen no greenback on a dollar bill.
How long, how how long, baby how long?
You're gonna be sorry, you'll feel so blue.
When you want me, baby, I declare I won't want you.
How long, how how long, baby how long?
Don't have no money for to ride the train.
I would ride the rods, baby, to be with you again.
How long, how how long, baby how long?
How long, baby how long
Must I keep my, my watch in pawn?
How long, how how long, baby how long?
11.Blues Before Sunrise
Lyrics:Leroy Carr
Music:Leroy Carr
I have the blues before sunrise, tears standing in my eyes.
I have the blues before sunrise, tears standing in my eyes.
It was a miserable feeling, now babe, a feeling I do despise.
I have to leave, leave you baby, because you know you done me
wrong.
I have to leave you baby, because you know you done me wrong.
I'm gonna pack up and leave you darling and break up my happy
home.
I have to leave, leave you baby, I'm gonna leave you all alone.
I'm gonna leave you baby, I'm gonna leave you all alone.
I'm gonna pack up and leave you darling because you know you
done me wrong.
Well now goodbye, goodbye baby, I'll see you on some rainy day.
Well now goodbye baby, I'll see you on some rainy day.
You can go ahead now little darling, 'cause I want you to have
your way.
12.A Sentimental Blues
Lyrics:Rod Andre
Music:Rod Andre
A sentimental blues
Will worry you
And make you do
Things that you
Wouldn't do
Only when you
Hear these blues
A sentimental blues
Will wet your eye
You wonder why
You heave a sigh
You start to cry
Each time that you
Hear these blues
Sigh, sigh, sigh
And drool
Cry, cry, cry
You fool
Yes, I know that it's cool
A sentimental blues
Deep down inside
Will make you hide
Your foolish pride
A sentimental blues
Will make you lose
Your mind
{solos}
Sigh, sigh, sigh
And drool
Cry, cry, cry
You fool
Yes, I know that it's cool
A sentimental blues
Deep down inside
Will make you hide
Your foolish pride
A sentimental blues
Will make you lose
Your mind

16.Sittin' On Top Of The World
Written:Bo Carter/Little Walter Jacobs
Worked all summer,
And all the fall
Had to take my Christmas
In overalls
Now she's gone,
And I don't worry
I'm sitting on top of the world
When I had you baby
You wouldn't treat me right
You stayed away
Both day and night
Now she's gone
And I don't worry
I'm sitting on top of the world
It's been days
when I didn't know your name
Why should I cry
Cry in vain
Now she's gone
And I don't worry
I'm sitting on top of the world

21.She's On The Ball
Lyrics:Ray Charles
Music:Ray Charles
If you beg a date
She says, 'You're too late'
Then later, she gives you a call
Don't hesitate, you're in for a break
'Cause Jack, she's on the ball
If she winks at you
Don't you miss that cue
For this is no time for a stall
Man, call a hack, and get to your shack
'Cause Jack, she's on the ball
No use in her denying
You don't have to do much trying
Just remember this, when she gives you her kiss
Her heart, and soul, are pining
So remember Gates
It's never too late
If ever she starts 'n to stall
Just bait your trap, she'll fall just like that
'Cause Jack, she's on the ball
{solos}
No use in her denying
You don't have to do much trying
'Cause remember this, if she gives you her kiss
Her heart, and soul, are pining
So remember-gate
It's never too late
Whenever she starts 'n to stall
Just bait your trap, she'll fall just like that
'Cause Jack, she's on the ball
Mm, Jack, she's on the ball
(I'm tellin' you buddy)
Jack, she's on the ball
(Of course, if she's fine it's understood that)
Jack, she's on the ball

25.I'll Do Anything But Work
Lyrics:Ray Charles
Music:Ray Charles
I'll take you strolling, 'round, lover's lane
I'll come to see you, even in the rain
I'll do any, thing for you, but work
Sing your praises, hold your hand
Tell the world that I think you're grand
I'll do any, thing for you, (he-he) but slave
I'll take you, to dine and dance
Fill your ears with sweet romance
See baby, I know I'm handsome but what the heck
I'm all yours if you pay the check
I'm yours to have, yours to hold
But that word 'work' just leaves me cold
I'll do any, thing for you, but work
{solos}
I'll take you, out to dine and dance
Fill your ears with sweet romance
Baby, I'm so good lookin' it's a shame
But I'm all yours if you pay the check
Yours to have, yours to hold
That word 'work' just leaves me cold
I'll do any, thing for you, but work
26.I Wonder Who's Kissing Her Now
Lyrics:Frank R.Adams/Will M.Hough
Music:Harold Orlob/Joe Howard
You have loved lots of girls in the sweet long-ago
And each has meant heaven to you
You have vowed your affection to each one in turn
And have sworn to them all you'd be true
You have kissed 'neath the moon while the world seemed in tune,
Then you've left her to hunt a new game.
Does it ever occur to you later my boy, that she's prob'ly doing
the same?
If you want to feel wretched and lonely and blue,
Just imagine the girl you love best
In the arms of some fellow who's stealing a kiss
From the lips that you once fondly pressed
But the world moves apace and the loves of today
Flit away with a smile and a tear,
So you can never tell who's kissing her now
Or just whom you'll be kissing next year.
I wonder who's kissing her now, I wonder who's teaching her how,
I wonder who's looking into her eyes, breathing sighs, telling
lies.
I wonder who's buying the wine for lips that I used to call
mine.
I wonder if she ever tells him of me, I wonder who's kissing her
now.

40.Guitar Blues
Each night the same songs
Each night the pain
As i look for your face
In the shadows of the front row
Life came between us
Life on the road
We'd kiss and fly on
Like birds in the winter time
Every day it's another lonely ride
Was a time when you'd be here by my side
Oh, but the rain came down
Washed it all away
Now i stand alone with my guitar and play
When will i see you
How will i know?
My voice echoes on
As i wait by the telephone
Maybe you'll be there
After the show
But hope slowly fades
Like the lights in a stage show
Every day it's another lonely ride
Was a time when you'd be here by my side
Oh, but the rain came down
Washed it all away
Now i stand alone with my guitar and play
