The Flying Postmen With Letters From Hamburg And Lyrics
1.Sweet Little Sixteen

(chuck berry)

They're really rockin' in boston in pittsburgh, p. a.
Deep in the heart of texas and 'round the frisco bay
All over st. louis way down in new orleans
All the cats wanna dance with sweet little sixteen

Sweet little sixteen she's just got to have
About half a million framed autographs
Her wallet's filled with pictures she gets 'em one by one
She gets so excited watch her look at her run

Oh mommy mommy
Please may i go
It's such a sight to see
Somebody steal the show
Oh daddy daddy
I beg of you
Whisper to mommy
It's all right with you

Cause they'll be rockin' on bandstand
In philadelphia p.a.
Deep in the heart of texas
And 'round the frisco bay
All over st. louis
Way down in new orleans
All the cats wanna dance with
Sweet little sixteen

Sweet little sixteen
She's got the grown up blues
Tight dress and lipstick
She's sportin' high heal shoes
Oh, but tomorrow morning
She'll have to change her trend
And be sweet sixteen
And back in class again

Cause they'll be rockin' on bandstand
In philadelphia p.a.
Deep in the heart of texas and 'round the frisco bay
All over st. louis way down in new orleans
All the cats wanna dance with
Sweet little sixteen


2.Falling In Love Again

(lerner/hollander)

Falling in love again
Never wanted to
What am i to do?
Can't help it

Love's always been my game
Play it how i may
I was made that way
Can't help it

Girls cluster to me like moths around a flame
And if their wings burn, i know i'm not to blame

Falling in love again
Never wanted to
What am i to do?
Can't help it

Falling in love again
Never wanted to
What am i to do?
Can't help it

Love's always been my game
Play it how i may
I was made that way
Can't help it

Girls cluster to me like moths around a flame
And if their wings burn, i know i'm not to blame

Falling in love again
Never wanted to
What am i to do?
Can't help it


3.What'd I Say?

(ray charles)

Well, mama, don't you see me wrong
Come and love your daddy all night long
All right, hey hey, hey hey

See the gal with the diamond ring?
She knows how to shake that thing
All right, hey hey, hey hey

See the gal with the red dress on?
She knows how to do it all night long
All right, hey hey, hey hey

Tell your mama, tell your pa
Gonna send you back to arkansas
All right, hey hey, you got me right now

When you see me in misery
Move over, baby, set me free
All right, hey hey, hey hey

Tell me, what'd i say?
Tell me, what'd i say?


4.Hallelujah I Love Her So

(ray charles)

Let me tell you 'bout a girl i know.
She's my baby and i love her so.

Ev'ry morning 'fore the sun comes up,
She brings my coffee in my fav'rite cup.
That's why i know, yes, i know,
Hallelujah, i will love her so.

Now if i call her on the telephone,
And say babe, i'm all alone§,
By the time i count from one to four,
I hear my baby on my door.

In the evening when the sun goes down,
When there is nobody else around,
She kisses me and she holds me tight.
And says 'baby, ev'rything's all right.'

That's why i know, yes, i know,
Hallelujah, i just love her so.
Hallelujah, i just love her so.
Hallelujah, i just love her so.
Hallelujah, i just love her so...


5.Red Sails In The Sunset

(kennedy/williams)

Red sails in the sunset, way out on the sea
Oh, carry my loved one home safely to me
She sailed at the dawning, all day i've been blue
Red sails in the sunset, i'm trusting in you

Swift wings you must borrow
Make straight for the shore
We will marry tomorrow
And she goes sailing no more

Red sails in the sunset, way out on the sea
Oh, carry my loved one home safely to me

Swift wings you must borrow
Make straight for the shore
We will marry tomorrow
And she goes sailing no more

Red sails in the sunset, way out on the sea
Oh, carry my loved one home safely to me
Oh, carry my loved one home safely to me


6.Little Queenie

(chuck berry)

(good evening sir, how are you?..§)

I got lumps in my throat
When i saw her comin' down the aisle
I got the wiggles in my knees
When she looked at me and sweetly smiled
Well there she is again
Standin' over by the record machine
Well she looks like a model
On the cover of a magazine
But she's too cute
To be a minute over seventeen

Meanwhile i was thinkin'

Well if she's in the mood
No need to break it
I got the chance and i oughta take it
If she can dance we can make it
C'mon queenie let's shake it

I said go, go, go, little queenie
I said go, go, go, little queenie
I said go, go, go, little queenie

Won't someone tell me
Who's the queen standin' over by the record machine
Well she looks like a model
On the cover of a magazine
But she's too cute
To be a minute over seventeen

I said go, go, go, little queenie
I said go, go, go, little queenie
I said go, go, go, little queenie

Meanwhile, i was still thinkin', hmmmm,
Well if it's a slow one
We'll omit it
If it's a rocker, then we'll get it
If it's a good one, she'll admit it
C'mon queenie, let's get with it

I said go, go, go, little queenie
I said go, go, go, little queenie
I said go, go, go, little queenie

I said go, go, go, little queenie
I said go, go, go, little queenie
I said go, go, go, little queenie...


7.Nothing Shakin'

(fontaine/calacrai/lampert/gluck)

I tried to find out what love is all about
And every day it sure lets out
I see my baby i get weak in my knees
There's nothing shaking but the leaves on the trees
My pappie told me there'd be times like these
There's nothing shaking but the leaves on the trees

We meet the gang and go to rocking joes
The cats are something on their heels and toes
I grab my baby tried to give her a squeeze
There's nothing shaking but the leaves on the trees
Well why must she be such a dog-gone tease?
There's nothing shaking but the leaves on the trees

She's got a way that makes me act like a fool
Spend my money then she plays me cool
I'm beggin' her for kisses on my bended knees
Oh won't you give me some loving, baby
Please, please, please

Though i keep trying hard to make her mine
One day the wind will blow the sun will shine
Till that time she puts my heart at ease
There's nothing shaking but the leaves on the trees
She locked my heart and threw away the keys
There's nothing shaking but the leaves on the trees, yeah

She's got a way that makes me act like a fool
Spend my money then she plays me cool
I'm beggin' her for kisses on my bended knees
Oh won't you give me some loving, baby
Please, please, please

Though i keep trying hard to make her mine
One day the wind will blow the sun will shine
Till that time she puts my heart at ease
There's nothing shaking but the leaves on the trees
She locked my heart and threw away the keys
There's nothing shaking but the leaves on the trees,

There's nothing shaking but the leaves on the trees,
There's nothing shaking but the leaves on the trees,
There's nothing shaking but the leaves on the trees.


8.Ya Ya

(lee dorsey)

Sittin' in my la la, waitin' for my ya ya, uh huh, uh huh
Sittin' in my la la, waitin' for my ya ya, uh huh, uh huh
Oh, i really love you, yes i really love you, uh huh, uh huh

Hey baby hurry, don't make me worry, uh huh, uh huh
Hey baby hurry, don't make me worry, uh huh, uh huh
Oh, you know i love you, yes i really love you, uh huh, uh huh


9.Ev'rybody's Tryin' To Be My Baby

(carl perkins)

Well they took some honey
From a tree
Dressed it up and they called it me

Everybody's trying to be my baby
Everybody's trying to be my baby
Everybody's trying to be my baby
Everybody's trying to be my baby, now

Woke up last night
Half past four
Fifty women knocking on my door

Everybody's trying to be my baby
Everybody's trying to be my baby
Everybody's trying to be my baby
Everybody's trying to be my baby, now

Went out last night
I didn't stay late
Before i'm home i had nineteen dates

Everybody's trying to be my baby
Everybody's trying to be my baby
Everybody's trying to be my baby
Everybody's trying to be my baby, now

Went out last night
I didn't stay late
Before i'm home i had nineteen dates

Everybody's trying to be my baby
Everybody's trying to be my baby
Everybody's trying to be my baby
Everybody's trying to be my baby, now

Well they took some honey
From a tree
Dressed it up and they called it me

Everybody's trying to be my baby
Everybody's trying to be my baby
Everybody's trying to be my baby
Everybody's trying to be my baby, now
