What Goes Up, Must Come Down
Verse 1
Though you seem oh so hypnotized,
by her face and her beautiful eyes
And the feelings you have are strong,
she seems so perfect, what could go wrong
Pre-Chorus 1
There seems no end to this beautiful high
But all of her charms may pass you by
Chorus 1
What goes up, must come down, and everything between
Goes round and round (repeat)
Verse 2
The cards been dealt, oh you have the hand
That makes you the one that will be in command
A winning streak, oh that depends,
when your luck’s running low and it has to end
Pre-Chorus 2
There seems no end to this beautiful high
But all of your luck may pass you by
Chorus 2
What goes up, must come down, and everything between
Goes round and round (repeat)
Verse 3
Your luck’s been bad, always been around
Good luck’s on it’s way, comin’ back into town
(You) feel good luck cannot be found
It’s just bad luck, turned upside down
Pre-Chorus 3
There seems no end to this heartbreaking sigh
But all of this pain may pass you by
Chorus 3
What goes up, must come down, and everything between
Goes round and round (repeat 4x)( round and round 3 x)

Baby Blue
Verse 1
As I was walking down the street one day,
there you stood, so far away,
All dressed in blue, lookin' so fine,
I was wondering, when you'd be mine
Pre-chorus 1
A little courage, with a bit of haste,
I had to meet her, with no time to waste
but then she turned, and walked away,
the only thing that I could say, was
Chorus 1
You, Baby Blue, where are you going, where are you going
You, Baby Blue, where are you going, where are you going to
Verse 2
Now it was time to catch up to her,
where she went, I wasn't sure
All dressed in blue, lookin' so fine,
I was wondering, when you'd be mine
Pre-chorus 2
A little courage, with a bit of haste,
I had to meet her, with no time to waste
but then she turned, and walked away,
the only thing that I could say, was
Chorus 2
You, Baby Blue, where are you going, where are you going
You, Baby Blue, where are you going, where are you going to
Verse 3
So finally, I caught up with her,
as she spoke, " Can I help you sir? "
I just told her that she caught my eye,
I'd say hello, and give it a try
Pre-chorus 3
A little courage, with a bit of haste,
I had to meet you, with no time to waste
and as she smiled, and said ok,
the only thing that I could say, was
Chorus 3
You, Baby Blue, where are you going, where are you going
You, Baby Blue, where are you going, where are you going to

Summer Dreams
Verse 1
The sun shines down on me,
throughout the afternoon
My thoughts have wandered far away
My hands dig through the sand,
Feels good to have no plans
It feels so nice, I want to stay
Pre-chorus
Though the sun feels warm,
I feel cold inside, without you by my side
But soon my thoughts will drift back to you,
with the changing of the tide
Chorus 1
As the summer drifts on by…………………… drifts on by……………...... (drifts on by – 2 x )
Verse 2
The breeze felt upon my face,
it cools my heated skin,
I close my eyes without delay
Castles are made of sand,
by the young who understands
What it means to be happy throughout the day
Pre-chorus
Though the sun feels warm,
I feel cold inside, without you by my side
But soon my thoughts will drift back to you,
with the changing of the tide
Chorus 2
As the summer drifts on by…………………… drifts on by……………......(drifts on by – 2 x )
Pre-chorus
Though the sun feels warm,
I feel cold inside, without you by my side
But soon my thoughts will drift back to you,
with the changing of the tide

As the summer drifts on by…………………… drifts on by………… (drifts on by – 2 x )…......

One and Only
Intro Chorus
I will be here for you my one and only
And I promise to never let you slip away (repeat)
Verse 1
You’ve been the one all along my lady
And I’ve kept your love tucked deep down inside
But thru the years, my love has grown for you
Now this love, I can no longer hide
Chorus 1
I will be here for you my one and only
And I promise to never let you slip away (repeat)
Verse 2
Out on the field, where these guns have killed many
And all the men, that we knew, none survived
Here holding you, my hands stained and bloody
Brother I’m here, to keep you alive
Chorus 2
I will be here for you my one and only
And I promise to never let you slip away (repeat)
Bridge
The secret to life lies within man’s relations
To all the people he’s known all his life
Though he forgets, there is one who remembers
To guide him thru all the strife
Verse 3
Now as I gaze, into eyes that are my own
He is my son, born in harsher times
He clings to those seeking out thrills and danger
Now I must teach him the ways of the wise
Chorus 3
I will be here for you my one and only
And I promise to never let you slip away (repeat)

Four in the Morning
Verse 1
It’s four in the morning,
and no I do not know where he has gone
We waited all night, then decided,
that his time had come to move along
Pre-Chorus 1
He could be headin’ down South,
like he told me he’d always dreamed of
To settle down somewhere with some sweet Southern Belle
You know you never can be sure of a man who dreams up
so much
Chorus 1
And I’ll never tell
Verse 2
He’s more than my best friend,
Cuz, he’s the only friend I’ve ever known
He told me he knew, away that we could break away,
From this awful place, and start all over again
Pre-Chorus 2
So if you tell me, just confess,
or you’ll throw away the keys
I will tell you over and over again
you know you might as well just know
right from the get go
Chorus 2
And I’ll never tell
Bridge
I know he'll always be living free
So will that small part of him in me
Though we may share the same sun’s rays
I sit in my hole and count the days
Verse 3
This story’s been told, one too many times
I’ll put the past behind, and I will walk the line
Then when they say, I can walk away
I will seize the day, and try to make things right
Pre-Chorus 3
So if half the things he told me, turn out true
I figure I will see him sometime, maybe soon
When I see him,
he can tell me
in the light of the moon
Chorus 3
And I’ll never tell
