The Hilltoppers Wonderful Lyrics
1.P.S. I Love You

Dear, I thought I'd drop a line
The weather's cool
The folks are fine
I'm in bed each night at nine
(P.S. I love you)

Yesterday we had some rain
But, all in all
I can't complain
Was it dusty on the train
(P.S. I love you)

Write to the Browns
Just as soon as you're able
They came around to call
I burned a hole
In the dining room table
And let me see
I guess that's all
Nothing else for me to say
And so I'll close
But by the way
Everybody's thinking of you
(P.S. I love you)

Write to the Browns
Just as soon as you're able
They came around to call
I burned a hole
In the dining room table
And let me see
I guess that's all
Nothing else for me to say
And so I'll close
But by the way
Everybody's thinking of you
(P.S. I love you)
(Love you, love you, love you)

4.Ka Ding Dong

Oh, well I met a little girl about a week ago
And I felt that I oughta let her know
Since then my heart has broke the string
It goes ding-dong, ding-dong, da-ding-dong, ding-dong-ding

My heart goes ding-dong-ding when I'm near you
It goes ding-dong-ding 'cause I want you
It goes ding-dong-ding 'cause I need you
It goes ding-dong ding-dong

Well, you know I love you, love you. little girl
And if you'll only kiss me it will give me the world
All around my heart where the feeling is
Because ding-dong, ding-dong, da-ding-dong, ding-dong-ding

My heart goes ding-dong-ding 'cause I want you
It goes ding-dong-ding 'cause I need you
It goes ding-dong-ding 'cause I want you

'cause I love you more than the whole wide world
You know I wouldn't harm a pretty, beautiful thing

My heart goes ding-dong-ding when I'm near you
It goes ding-dong-ding 'cause I want you
It goes ding-dong-ding 'cause I need you
It goes ding-dong (SPOKEN: 'Try it again') ding-dong

6.Marianne

Marianne, Oh, Marianne, Oh wont you marry me?
We can have a bamboo hut and brandy in the tea,
Leave your fat old Nanna home,
She never will say yes.
If mamma don't know now,
She can guess, my, my, yes.

CHORUS:
All night, all day, Marianne,
Down by the seaside sifting sand.
Even little children love Marianne,
Down by the seaside sifting sand.

When she walks along the shore,
People pause to greet,
While birds fly around her,
Little fish come to her feet.
In her heart is love, but I'm the only mortal man,
Whos allowed to kiss my Marianne,
Don't rush me.

When we marry, we will have
A time you never saw,
I will be so happy,
I will kiss my mother-in-law.
Children by the dozen, in and out the bamboo hut,
One for every palm tree, and cok-y-nut, Hurry up now.


7.From The Vine Came The Grape

From the vine came the grape
From the grape came the wine
From the wine came a dream to a lover
He was back with Marie on the Isle of Capri
With a million stars shining above her
Once again he romanced as they kissed and they danced
And even her wedding bells chimed
From the vine came the grape
From the grape came the wine
And for Tony, a wonderful time

With a song in his heart
He would sip another little glass of wine
With each sip he would cry
My bella Maria you're mine

From the vine came the grape
From the grape came the wine
From the wine came a dream to a lover
He was back with Marie on the Isle of Capri
With a million stars shining above her
Once again he romanced as they kissed and they danced
And even her wedding bells chimed
From the vine came the grape
From the grape came the wine
And for Tony a wonderful time
For Tony a wonderful time


8.Time Waits For No One

(doo-doo-doom) (doo-doo-doom) (doo-doo-doom)
(rep-reddah-rep)
(doo-doo-doom) (doo-doo-doom) (doo-doo-doom)
(rep-reddah-rep)


Till then, my darling, please wait for me
Till then, no matter when it may be
One day I know I'll be home again
Please wait (till) till then

Our dreams will live though we are apart
Our love will always stay in our hearts
Till then, when of the world will be free
Please wait for me

Although there are oceans we must cross and mountains that we
must climb
I know every gain must have a loss, so pray that our loss is
nothing but time

Till then, we'll dream of what there will be
Till then, we'll call on each memory
Till then, when I will hold you again
Please wait till then (ooh)


9.Trying

I'm tryin' to forget you
But try as I may
Your still my every thought, dear
Every day
No use tryin' to forget you
'Cause I realize
That I'm tryin' to forget you
With tears in my eyes
And those teardrops only remind me
That I love you more and more
So I'll put my foolish pride behind me
And go knockin', knockin' at your door
And I'll be tryin' to impress you
Hopin' to possess you
Now I know I haven't a chance, dear
There's no denyin'
But you can't blame a fellow for tryin'

And those teardrops only remind me
That I love you more and more
So I'll put my foolish pride behind me
And go knockin', knockin' at your door
And I'll be tryin' to impress you
Hopin' to possess you
Now I know I haven't a chance, dear
There's no denyin'
But you can't blame a fellow for tryin'


10.Fallen Star

A star fell from Heaven
Right into my arms
A brighter star I know I've never seen
Then I found out that it was
Only you with all your charms
Who came into my life to fill a dream

A fallen star, that's what you are
The twinkle in your eye came from the sky
You must have strayed from the Milky Way
A fallen star, that's what you are

A fallen star, that's what you are
The twinkle in your eye came from the sky
You must have strayed from the Milky Way
A fallen star, that's what you are


11.Do The Bop

Walking down the street about a-half past four
Saw a pretty baby standing in the door
She was a real hep kitten in her early teens
Dirty white boxers and old blue jeans
Oo-blee-ah-ah-ah, oo-blee-ah-oo-la-la

The music was a-playing with a heavy backbeat
The was full of rhythm from her head to her feet
She put a quarter in the jukebox and said let's go
All I wanna do is rock 'n' roll
Oo-blee-ah-ah-ah, oo-blee-ah-oo-la-la

Do the bop, do the bop
Do the bop, do the bop
Do the bop, do the bop
Do the bop, do the bop
Do the bop, do the bop
Do the bop, do the bop, bop!

Oh, every day I meet her at the same ol' place
Move it over buddy, there's plenty of space
When we get to boppin', we can't stop
Everybody's crazy when they do the bop
Oo-blee-ah-ah-ah, oo-blee-ah-oo-la-la

13.The Door Is Still Open


14.I'd Rather Die Young


15.The Joker

The joker is what they call me
My friends say Ive never seemed so gay
But if they only knew how much I cry for you
The laughter would surely fade away

The joker is always laughing
And so he's the gayest guy in town
He plays a winning part while memories crush his heart
Yet he goes on laughing like a clown

I tried so hard to pretend dear
That losing you meant nothing to me
But 'til you're mine once again dear
Make believe is all my life will be
Ha-ha, ha-ha, ha-ha

The joker, though he seems happy
Because you have found that someone new
But somewhere deep inside beneath his strange disguise
The joker is crying over you

Oh-oh-oh-oh - o - o - oho
That losing you meant something to me
Oh-oh-oh-oh - o - o - oho
Make believe is all my life will be
Ha-ha, ha-ha, ha-ha


16.Until The Real Thing Comes A Long


17.When Youre Alone


18.The Kentuckian Song

I see my darlin in each spray of summer sunlight.
I see my darlin in the leaves that fall.
I see her walkin in the rainy April sadness
And hear her name in every bluebird call.

I've told the possum in the gum tree,
The raccoon on the ground,
Told everyone but my darlin
Of the happiness I've found.
My heart would cry more than the weeping willow tree
If my darlin and her heart were not for me.

I've told the possum in the gum tree,
The raccoon on the ground,
Told everyone but my darlin
Of the happiness I've found.
My heart would cry more than the weeping willow tree
If my darlin and her heart were not for me.


19.If I Didnt Care

If I didn't care more than words can say
If I didn't care would I feel this way?
If this isn't love then why do I thrill?
And what makes my head go 'round and 'round
While my heart stands still?

If I didn't care would it be the same?
Would my ev'ry prayer begin and end with just your name?
And would I be sure that this is love beyond compare?
Would all this be true if I didn't care for you?

MONOLOGUE: If I didn't care honey child, mo' than words can say.
If I didn't
care baby, would I feel this way? Darlin' if this isn't love,
then why do I thrill so
much? What is it that makes my head go 'round and 'round while
my heart just stands
still so much ?

If I didn't care would it be the same?
Would my ev'ry prayer begin and end with just your name?
And would I be sure that this is love beyond compare?
Would all this be true if I didn't care for you?


20.Love Walked In

Love walked right in and drove the shadows away
Love walked right in and brought my sunniest day
One magic moment and my heart seemed to know that love said
hello
Though not a word was spoken

One look, and I forgot the gloom of the past
One look and I had found my future at last
One look and I had found a world completely new
When love walked in with you

One magic moment and my heart seemed to know that love said
hello
Though not a word was spoken

One look and I had found a world completely new
When love walked in with you


21.No Regrets


22.So Tired


23.My Treassure

All my life I had searched for a treasure of gold.
Wanted all of the money my pockets could hold.
I thought I could buy happiness. I was so blind.
For the things that I bought, they never brought peace of mind.


But I found my real treasure. I know I'm not wrong.
For I looked in my heart where it was all along.
It was then I discovered what I never could see,
That my greatest of treasures was your love for me.

That my greatest of treasures was your love for me.


24.Poor Butterfly

Poor Butterfly 'neath the blossoms waiting
Poor Butterfly, for she loved him so
The moments pass into hours
The hours pass into years
And as she smiles through her tears
She murmurs low
The moon and I
Know that he'll be faithful
I'm sure he'll come to me by and by
But if she won't come back
Then I'll never sigh or cry
I just must die
Poor Butterfly


25.Bettina


26.Teardrops In My Eyes


27.Must I Cry Again


28.The Last Word In Love


29.Only You

Only you can make this world seem right
Only you can make the darkness bright
Only you and you alone
Can thrill me like you do
And fill my heart with love for only you

Only you can make this change in me
For it's true, you are my destiny
When you hold my hand
I understand the magic that you do

You're my dream come to true
My one and only you

Only you can make this change in me
For it's true, you are my destiny
When you hold my hand
I understand the magic that you do

You're my dream come true
My one and only you
You're my dream come true
My one and only you
