Who you know to get that pretty
Where you go to get that pretty
People fly to New York city
You can't try to look that pretty
Who can tell to get that fitted
The word you say to get that pretty
Southern gal you so pretty
Well oh well dang you pretty
Pretty baby if you're daddy's home
Ask him if he kindly maybe leave you alone
Pretty baby if you're mama's over
Ask the pretty lady if she brings you to town
Girl oh my, dang you pretty
Sweet like wine, dang you pretty
No desire, back on with it
On my mind, dang you pretty
Shake that ham dang you pretty

Made me say tonight this did it

Little mama if you walk with me
I can show you things that you be begging to see
Little mama I'm in love with you
And I think of things that you want me to
'Cause I know

I said it before, and I'll say it again
Dang you pretty if I do say so

Dang you pretty did you hear me when
I said it before, and I'll say it again
Dang you pretty if I do say so
Dang you pretty if you needed to know
Dang you pretty did you hear me when
I said it before, and I'll say it again
Angola (At The Farm) lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
At the farm Angola they got me on watch hall
Ain't got it on more you can cut along
Ain't got it off tractor you can call that tiller
But you can call that park up the view and the birds along
At the farm Angola they got on red hand
Then the boys got mad at 74
They told him that it might be good for Charlie Fraser
They cut the wings of the heels of the sand that their work was done
Angola at the farm
Angola at the farm
At the farm Angola you work on sunshine
At the farm Angola you work on frame
Perhaps and it got to be a fortune
And if you don't like it
You can take it up with Wally King
The farm Angola's on the Mississippi
The shortest journey the life would enjoy at the sun
We spend all day all night thinking of the city
But the chase is ready so man don't you try to run
Angola at the farm
Angola at the farm
Angola at the farm
Angola at the farm
Ain't got it on more you can cut along
Ain't got it off tractor you can call that tiller
But you can call that park up the view and the birds along
At the farm Angola they got on red hand
Then the boys got mad at 74
They told him that it might be good for Charlie Fraser
They cut the wings of the heels of the sand that their work was done
Angola at the farm
Angola at the farm
At the farm Angola you work on sunshine
At the farm Angola you work on frame
Perhaps and it got to be a fortune
And if you don't like it
You can take it up with Wally King
The farm Angola's on the Mississippi
The shortest journey the life would enjoy at the sun
We spend all day all night thinking of the city
But the chase is ready so man don't you try to run
Angola at the farm
Angola at the farm
Angola at the farm
Angola at the farm
Nola Girl lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
[Verse:]
Going towards the coz wave south of 59
Headed to the easy to see that girl of mine
She's a bit peculiar , sings a different tune
She took my soul and then she stole
The crescent from the moon
[Chorus:]
Nola girl what you do
Laying lies and then you turn them true
Nola girl how'd you know
Tried of leave I cannot go
[Verse:]
Make you play your cards right
Make you call a bluff
She won't let you see much
But you'll see enough
[Verse:]
Tell her maybe next time
Tell you maybe not
You don't dare forget to care
For the girl that care forgot
[Chorus:]
Nola girl what you do
Laying lies and then you turn them true
Nola girl how'd you know
Tried of leave I cannot go
[Bridge:]
It's like they crossed up Madonna
With the young Marie Laveau
She'll do anything you wanna
Beside of turning old
[Verse:]
Sometimes in the morning
Right before the sun
She had satisfied you
But she's far from done
[Verse:]
She put summer perfume
She'll dress and both your girl
Watch you go, you wouldn't know
She's someone else's girl
[Chorus:]
Nola girl what you do
Laying lies and then you turn them true
Nola girl how'd you know
Tried of leave I can never go
Going towards the coz wave south of 59
Headed to the easy to see that girl of mine
She's a bit peculiar , sings a different tune
She took my soul and then she stole
The crescent from the moon
[Chorus:]
Nola girl what you do
Laying lies and then you turn them true
Nola girl how'd you know
Tried of leave I cannot go
[Verse:]
Make you play your cards right
Make you call a bluff
She won't let you see much
But you'll see enough
[Verse:]
Tell her maybe next time
Tell you maybe not
You don't dare forget to care
For the girl that care forgot
[Chorus:]
Nola girl what you do
Laying lies and then you turn them true
Nola girl how'd you know
Tried of leave I cannot go
[Bridge:]
It's like they crossed up Madonna
With the young Marie Laveau
She'll do anything you wanna
Beside of turning old
[Verse:]
Sometimes in the morning
Right before the sun
She had satisfied you
But she's far from done
[Verse:]
She put summer perfume
She'll dress and both your girl
Watch you go, you wouldn't know
She's someone else's girl
[Chorus:]
Nola girl what you do
Laying lies and then you turn them true
Nola girl how'd you know
Tried of leave I can never go
Mind On The Matter lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Mama told me not to try to be nobody
I listened to her
Mama told me I'd grow up to be somebody
Looka here
Savin money's hard when you can't save your soul
I'll get through it
Tryin to dig myself out of this mighty hole
Listen to what I say
Got my mind on the matter
Sure as I tell ya
Now you know that's right
I look down at my hands and
I see labor burns
It's a part of livin
Keepin my feet on the ground while the world turns
It's all on me
Got my mind on the matter
Sure as I tell ya
Now you know that's right
I listened to her
Mama told me I'd grow up to be somebody
Looka here
Savin money's hard when you can't save your soul
I'll get through it
Tryin to dig myself out of this mighty hole
Listen to what I say
Got my mind on the matter
Sure as I tell ya
Now you know that's right
I look down at my hands and
I see labor burns
It's a part of livin
Keepin my feet on the ground while the world turns
It's all on me
Got my mind on the matter
Sure as I tell ya
Now you know that's right
City Beneath The Sea lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Take me... Take me
To the city beneath the sea
The river will wrap around me
And the music will let me be
You can find me on the neutral ground
On the corner of Fleur-de-lis
Please... somebody won't you take me
To the city beneath the sea
Take me... Take me
Where the night outshines the day
You can hear the tap of soda caps
And smell the ©toufe©
You can fais do do with Jacamo
Or fi na ne 'till three
Please... somebody won't you take me
To the city beneath the sea
How... How long
Can I stay away
How... How long
Can I stay away
Take me... Take me
To the Meters and the Mardi Gras
They betcha where you got your shoes
And they eat their oysters raw
Pork Chops dances all night long
But he won't dance for free
Please... somebody won't you take me
To the city beneath the sea
To the city beneath the sea
The river will wrap around me
And the music will let me be
You can find me on the neutral ground
On the corner of Fleur-de-lis
Please... somebody won't you take me
To the city beneath the sea
Take me... Take me
Where the night outshines the day
You can hear the tap of soda caps
And smell the ©toufe©
You can fais do do with Jacamo
Or fi na ne 'till three
Please... somebody won't you take me
To the city beneath the sea
How... How long
Can I stay away
How... How long
Can I stay away
Take me... Take me
To the Meters and the Mardi Gras
They betcha where you got your shoes
And they eat their oysters raw
Pork Chops dances all night long
But he won't dance for free
Please... somebody won't you take me
To the city beneath the sea
All The Way lyrics - Harry Connick Jr (feat. Branford Marsalis)
When somebody loves you
It's no good unless he loves you all the way
Happy to be near you
When you need someone to cheer you all the way
Taller than the tallest tree is
That's how it's got to feel
Deeper than the deep blue sea is
That's how deep it goes if it's real
When somebody needs you
It's no good unless he needs you all the way
Through the good or lean years
And for all the in between years come what may
Who knows where the road will lead us?
Only a fool would say
But if you'll let me love you
It's for sure I'm gonna love you all the way, all the way
When somebody needs you
It's no good unless he needs you all the way
Through the good or lean years
And for all the in between years come what may
Who knows where the road will lead us?
Only a fool would say
But if you'll let me love you
It's for sure I'm gonna love you all the way, all the way
It's no good unless he loves you all the way
Happy to be near you
When you need someone to cheer you all the way
Taller than the tallest tree is
That's how it's got to feel
Deeper than the deep blue sea is
That's how deep it goes if it's real
When somebody needs you
It's no good unless he needs you all the way
Through the good or lean years
And for all the in between years come what may
Who knows where the road will lead us?
Only a fool would say
But if you'll let me love you
It's for sure I'm gonna love you all the way, all the way
When somebody needs you
It's no good unless he needs you all the way
Through the good or lean years
And for all the in between years come what may
Who knows where the road will lead us?
Only a fool would say
But if you'll let me love you
It's for sure I'm gonna love you all the way, all the way
Just The Way You Are lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Don't go changing, to try and please me,
You never let me down before,
Don't imagine, you're too familiar,
And I don't see you anymore.
I would not leave you, in times of trouble,
We never could have come this far,
I took the good times, I'll take the bad times,
I'll take you just the way you are.
Don't go trying, some new fashion,
Don't change the color of your hair,
You always have my, unspoken passion,
Although I might not seem to care.
I don't want clever, conversation,
I never want to work that hard,
I just want someone, that I can talk to,
I want you just the way you are.
I need to know that you will always be
The same old someone that I knew,
What will it take till you believe in me,
The way that I believe in you?
I said I love you, and that's forever,
And this I promise from the heart,
I couldn't love you, any better,
I love you just the way you are.
You never let me down before,
Don't imagine, you're too familiar,
And I don't see you anymore.
I would not leave you, in times of trouble,
We never could have come this far,
I took the good times, I'll take the bad times,
I'll take you just the way you are.
Don't go trying, some new fashion,
Don't change the color of your hair,
You always have my, unspoken passion,
Although I might not seem to care.
I don't want clever, conversation,
I never want to work that hard,
I just want someone, that I can talk to,
I want you just the way you are.
I need to know that you will always be
The same old someone that I knew,
What will it take till you believe in me,
The way that I believe in you?
I said I love you, and that's forever,
And this I promise from the heart,
I couldn't love you, any better,
I love you just the way you are.
Can't Help Falling In Love With You lyrics - Harry Connick Jr (feat. Wynton Marsalis)
Wise men say only fools rush in
but I can't help falling in love with you
Shall I stay
would it be a sin
If I can't help falling in love with you
Like a river flows surely to the sea
Darling so it goes
some things are meant to be
take my hand, take my whole life too
for I can't help falling in love with you
Like a river flows surely to the sea
Darling so it goes
Some things are meant to be
Take my hand, take my whole life too
For I can't help falling in love with you
For I can't help falling in love with you
but I can't help falling in love with you
Shall I stay
would it be a sin
If I can't help falling in love with you
Like a river flows surely to the sea
Darling so it goes
some things are meant to be
take my hand, take my whole life too
for I can't help falling in love with you
Like a river flows surely to the sea
Darling so it goes
Some things are meant to be
Take my hand, take my whole life too
For I can't help falling in love with you
For I can't help falling in love with you
And I Love Her lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
I give her all my love
That's all I do
And if you saw my love
You'd love her too
I love her
She gives me everything
And tenderly
The kiss my lover brings
She brings to me
And I love her
A love like ours
Could never die
As long as I
Have you near me
Bright are the stars that shine
Dark is the sky
I know this love of mine
Will never die
And I love her
(They Long To Be) Close To You lyrics - Harry Connick Jr (feat. Leroy Jones)
Why do birds suddenly appear
Every time you are near?
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you.
Why do stars fall down from the sky
Every time you walk by?
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you.
On the day that you were born
The angels got together
And decided to create a dream come true
So they sprinkled moon dust in your hair of gold
And starlight in your eyes of blue.
That is why all the boys in town
Follow you all around.
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you.
Every time you are near?
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you.
Why do stars fall down from the sky
Every time you walk by?
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you.
On the day that you were born
The angels got together
And decided to create a dream come true
So they sprinkled moon dust in your hair of gold
And starlight in your eyes of blue.
That is why all the boys in town
Follow you all around.
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you.
Bésame Mucho lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Bésame, bésame mucho
Como si fuera esta noche
La última vez
Bésame, bésame mucho
Que tengo miedo a perderte
Perderte después
Bésame, bésame mucho
Como si fuera esta noche
La última vez
Bésame, bésame mucho
Que tengo miedo a perderte
Perderte después
Quiero tenerte muy cerca
Mirarme en tus ojos
Verte junto a mi
Piensa que tal ves mañana
Yo ya estaré lejos
Muy lejos de ti
Bésame, bésame mucho
Como si fuera esta noche
La última vez
Bésame, bésame mucho
Que tengo miedo a perderte
Perderte después
Besame besame mucho,
Each time I cling to your kiss
I hear music divine
Besame, besame mucho
Hold me my darling
Say that you'll always be mine
Oh this joy is something new
My arms enfolding you
I never knew this thrill before
Who ever thought I'd be
Holding you close to me
Whispering it's you I adore
So dearest one, if you should leave me
Then each little dream would take wing
And my life would be through.
Besame, besame mucho
Love me forever
Make all my dreams come true
Como si fuera esta noche
La última vez
Bésame, bésame mucho
Que tengo miedo a perderte
Perderte después
Bésame, bésame mucho
Como si fuera esta noche
La última vez
Bésame, bésame mucho
Que tengo miedo a perderte
Perderte después
Quiero tenerte muy cerca
Mirarme en tus ojos
Verte junto a mi
Piensa que tal ves mañana
Yo ya estaré lejos
Muy lejos de ti
Bésame, bésame mucho
Como si fuera esta noche
La última vez
Bésame, bésame mucho
Que tengo miedo a perderte
Perderte después
Besame besame mucho,
Each time I cling to your kiss
I hear music divine
Besame, besame mucho
Hold me my darling
Say that you'll always be mine
Oh this joy is something new
My arms enfolding you
I never knew this thrill before
Who ever thought I'd be
Holding you close to me
Whispering it's you I adore
So dearest one, if you should leave me
Then each little dream would take wing
And my life would be through.
Besame, besame mucho
Love me forever
Make all my dreams come true
The Way You Look Tonight lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Someday, when I'm awfully low
When the world is cold
I will feel a glow, just thinking of you
And the way you look tonight
Yes, you're lovely
With that smile so warm, and your cheeks so soft
There is nothing for me but to love you
And the way you look tonight
With each word, your tenderness grows
Tearing my fears apart
And that laugh that wrinkles your nose
Touches my foolish heart
(You're) lovely, never never change, keep that breathless charm
Won't you please arrange it?
Because I love you
And the way you look tonight
With each word you tenderness grows
Tearing my fears apart
And that laugh that wrinkles your nose
Touches my foolish heart
(You're) lovely, don't you ever change. Keep that breathless charm.
Won't you please arrange it?
Because I love you
Just the way you look tonight
Oh, oh, just the way you look tonight.
When the world is cold
I will feel a glow, just thinking of you
And the way you look tonight
Yes, you're lovely
With that smile so warm, and your cheeks so soft
There is nothing for me but to love you
And the way you look tonight
With each word, your tenderness grows
Tearing my fears apart
And that laugh that wrinkles your nose
Touches my foolish heart
(You're) lovely, never never change, keep that breathless charm
Won't you please arrange it?
Because I love you
And the way you look tonight
With each word you tenderness grows
Tearing my fears apart
And that laugh that wrinkles your nose
Touches my foolish heart
(You're) lovely, don't you ever change. Keep that breathless charm.
Won't you please arrange it?
Because I love you
Just the way you look tonight
Oh, oh, just the way you look tonight.
First Time Ever I Saw Your Face lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
The first time ever I saw your face
I thought the sun rose in your eyes
And the moon and stars were the gifts you gave
To the dark and the empty skies, my love,
The first time ever I kissed your mouth
I felt the earth move in my hand
Like the trembling heart of a captive bird
That was there at my command, my love
And the first time ever I lay with you
I felt your heart so close to mine
And I knew our joy would fill the earth
And last till the end of time my love
I thought the sun rose in your eyes
And the moon and stars were the gifts you gave
To the dark and the empty skies, my love,
The first time ever I kissed your mouth
I felt the earth move in my hand
Like the trembling heart of a captive bird
That was there at my command, my love
And the first time ever I lay with you
I felt your heart so close to mine
And I knew our joy would fill the earth
And last till the end of time my love
Your Song lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
It's a little bit funny this feeling inside
I'm not one of those who can easily hide
I don't have much money but boy if I did
I'd buy a big house where we both could live
If I was a sculptor, but then again, no
Or a man who makes potions in a travelling show
I know it's not much but it's the best I can do
My gift is my song and this one's for you
And you can tell everybody this is your song
It may be quite simple but now that it's done
I hope you don't mind
I hope you don't mind that I put down in words
How wonderful life is while you're in the world
I sat on the roof and kicked off the moss
Well a few of the verses well they've got me quite cross
But the sun's been quite kind while I wrote this song
It's for people like you that keep it turned on
So excuse me forgetting but these things I do
You see I've forgotten if they're green or they're blue
Anyway the thing is what I really mean
Yours are the sweetest eyes I've ever seen
And you can tell everybody this is your song
It may be quite simple but now that it's done
I hope you don't mind
I hope you don't mind that I put down in words
How wonderful life is while you're in the world
I hope you don't mind
I hope you don't mind that I put down in words
How wonderful life is while you're in the world
I'm not one of those who can easily hide
I don't have much money but boy if I did
I'd buy a big house where we both could live
If I was a sculptor, but then again, no
Or a man who makes potions in a travelling show
I know it's not much but it's the best I can do
My gift is my song and this one's for you
And you can tell everybody this is your song
It may be quite simple but now that it's done
I hope you don't mind
I hope you don't mind that I put down in words
How wonderful life is while you're in the world
I sat on the roof and kicked off the moss
Well a few of the verses well they've got me quite cross
But the sun's been quite kind while I wrote this song
It's for people like you that keep it turned on
So excuse me forgetting but these things I do
You see I've forgotten if they're green or they're blue
Anyway the thing is what I really mean
Yours are the sweetest eyes I've ever seen
And you can tell everybody this is your song
It may be quite simple but now that it's done
I hope you don't mind
I hope you don't mind that I put down in words
How wonderful life is while you're in the world
I hope you don't mind
I hope you don't mind that I put down in words
How wonderful life is while you're in the world
Some Enchanted Evening lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Some enchanted evening
You may see a stranger,
you may see a stranger
Across a crowded room
And somehow you know,
You know even then
That somewhere you'll see her
Again and again.
Some enchanted evening
Someone may be laughin',
You may hear her laughin'
Across a crowded room
And night after night,
As strange as it seems
The sound of her laughter
Will sing in your dreams.
Who can explain it?
Who can tell you why?
Fools give you reasons,
Wise men never try.
Some enchanted evening
When you find your true love,
When you feel her call you
Across a crowded room,
Then fly to her side,
And make her your own
Or all through your life you
May dream all alone.
Once you have found her,
Never let her go.
Once you have found her,
Never let her go!
You may see a stranger,
you may see a stranger
Across a crowded room
And somehow you know,
You know even then
That somewhere you'll see her
Again and again.
Some enchanted evening
Someone may be laughin',
You may hear her laughin'
Across a crowded room
And night after night,
As strange as it seems
The sound of her laughter
Will sing in your dreams.
Who can explain it?
Who can tell you why?
Fools give you reasons,
Wise men never try.
Some enchanted evening
When you find your true love,
When you feel her call you
Across a crowded room,
Then fly to her side,
And make her your own
Or all through your life you
May dream all alone.
Once you have found her,
Never let her go.
Once you have found her,
Never let her go!
And I Love You So lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
And I love you so
The people ask me how
How I've lived till now
I tell them I don't know
I guess they understand
How lonely life has been
But life began again
The day you took my hand
[CHORUS:]
And yes I know how lonely (loveless) life can be
The shadows follow me
And the night won't set me free
But I don't let the evening get me down
Now that you're around me
And you love me too
Your thoughts are just for me
You set my spirit free
I'm happy that you do
The book of life is brief
And once a page is read
All but love is dead
That is my belief
[CHORUS]
The people ask me how
How I've lived till now
I tell them I don't know
I guess they understand
How lonely life has been
But life began again
The day you took my hand
[CHORUS:]
And yes I know how lonely (loveless) life can be
The shadows follow me
And the night won't set me free
But I don't let the evening get me down
Now that you're around me
And you love me too
Your thoughts are just for me
You set my spirit free
I'm happy that you do
The book of life is brief
And once a page is read
All but love is dead
That is my belief
[CHORUS]
Who Can I Turn To (When Nobody Needs Me) lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Who can I turn to, when nobody needs me?
My heart wants to know, and so I must go where destiny leads me.
With no star to guide me, and no one beside me.
I'll go on my way and, after the day, the darkness will hide me.
And maybe tomorrow, I'll find what I'm after.
I'll throw out my sorrow, beg, steal, or borrow my share of laughter.
With you I could learn to, with you on a new day.
But who can I turn to, if you turn away?
My heart wants to know, and so I must go where destiny leads me.
With no star to guide me, and no one beside me.
I'll go on my way and, after the day, the darkness will hide me.
And maybe tomorrow, I'll find what I'm after.
I'll throw out my sorrow, beg, steal, or borrow my share of laughter.
With you I could learn to, with you on a new day.
But who can I turn to, if you turn away?
Smile lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Smile tho' your heart is aching,
Smile
Even though it's breaking,
When there are clouds in the sky
You'll get by,
If you
Smile through your fear and sorrow,
Smile and maybe tomorrow
You'll see the sun come shining through- For you.
Light up your face with gladness,
Hide ev'ry trace of sadness,
Altho' a tear may be ever so near,
That's the time you must keep on trying,
Smile- What's the use of crying,
You'll find that life is still worthwhile,
If you just smile.
Smile
Even though it's breaking,
When there are clouds in the sky
You'll get by,
If you
Smile through your fear and sorrow,
Smile and maybe tomorrow
You'll see the sun come shining through- For you.
Light up your face with gladness,
Hide ev'ry trace of sadness,
Altho' a tear may be ever so near,
That's the time you must keep on trying,
Smile- What's the use of crying,
You'll find that life is still worthwhile,
If you just smile.
Mona Lisa lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Mona lisa, mona lisa, men have named you
Youre so like the lady with the mystic smile
Is it only cause youre lonely they have blamed you?
For that mona lisa strangeness in your smile?
Do you smile to tempt a lover, mona lisa?
Or is this your way to hide a broken heart?
Many dreams have been brought to your doorstep
They just lie there and they die there
Are you warm, are you real, mona lisa?
Or just a cold and lonely lovely work of art?
Do you smile to tempt a lover, mona lisa?
Or is this your way to hide a broken heart?
Many dreams have been brought to your doorstep
They just lie there and they die there
Are you warm, are you real, mona lisa?
Or just a cold and lonely lovely work of art?
Youre so like the lady with the mystic smile
Is it only cause youre lonely they have blamed you?
For that mona lisa strangeness in your smile?
Do you smile to tempt a lover, mona lisa?
Or is this your way to hide a broken heart?
Many dreams have been brought to your doorstep
They just lie there and they die there
Are you warm, are you real, mona lisa?
Or just a cold and lonely lovely work of art?
Do you smile to tempt a lover, mona lisa?
Or is this your way to hide a broken heart?
Many dreams have been brought to your doorstep
They just lie there and they die there
Are you warm, are you real, mona lisa?
Or just a cold and lonely lovely work of art?
Killing Me Softly lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
I heard she sang a good song
I heard she had a style
And so I came to see her and listen for a while
And there she was this young girl
A stranger to my eyes
Strumming my pain with her fingers
Singing my life with her words
Killing me softly with her song
Killing me softly with her song
Telling my whole life, with her words
Killing me softly with her song
I felt all flushed with fever
Embarrassed by the crowd
I felt he found my letters and read each one out loud
I prayed that he would finish
But he just kept right on
Strumming my pain with her fingers
Singing my life with her words
Killing me softly with her song
Killing me softly with her song
Telling my whole life, with her words
Killing me softly with her song
She sang as if she knew me
In all my dark despair
And then she looked right through me as if I wasn't there
And she just kept on singing
Singing clear and strong
Strumming my pain with her fingers
Singing my life with her words
Killing me softly with her song
Killing me softly with her song
Telling my whole life, with her words
Killing me softly with her song
I heard she had a style
And so I came to see her and listen for a while
And there she was this young girl
A stranger to my eyes
Strumming my pain with her fingers
Singing my life with her words
Killing me softly with her song
Killing me softly with her song
Telling my whole life, with her words
Killing me softly with her song
I felt all flushed with fever
Embarrassed by the crowd
I felt he found my letters and read each one out loud
I prayed that he would finish
But he just kept right on
Strumming my pain with her fingers
Singing my life with her words
Killing me softly with her song
Killing me softly with her song
Telling my whole life, with her words
Killing me softly with her song
She sang as if she knew me
In all my dark despair
And then she looked right through me as if I wasn't there
And she just kept on singing
Singing clear and strong
Strumming my pain with her fingers
Singing my life with her words
Killing me softly with her song
Killing me softly with her song
Telling my whole life, with her words
Killing me softly with her song
Who's Sorry Now lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Who's sorry now? Who's sorry now?
Whose heart is achin' for breakin' each vow?
Who's sad and blue, who's cryin' too?
Just like I cried over you
Right to the end, just like a friend
I tried to warn you somehow
You had your way, now you must pay
I'm glad that you're sorry now
Right to the end, just like a friend
I tried to warn you somehow
You had your way, now you must pay
I'm glad that you're sorry now
Whose heart is achin' for breakin' each vow?
Who's sad and blue, who's cryin' too?
Just like I cried over you
Right to the end, just like a friend
I tried to warn you somehow
You had your way, now you must pay
I'm glad that you're sorry now
Right to the end, just like a friend
I tried to warn you somehow
You had your way, now you must pay
I'm glad that you're sorry now
Answer Me My Love lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Answer me
Oh my love
Just what sin have I been guilty of
Tell me how I came to lose your love
Please answer me sweetheart
You were mine yesterday
I believed that love was here to stay
Won't you tell me how I've gone astray
Please answer me my love
If you're happier without me
I'll try not to care
But if you still think about me
Please listen to my prayer
You must know that I've been true
Won't you say that we can start anew
In my sorrow now I turn to you
Please answer me my love
If you're happier without me
I'll try not to care
But if you still think about me
Please listen to my prayer
You must know that I've been true
Won't you say that we can start anew
In my sorrow now I turn to you
Please answer me my love
Answer me my love
Oh my love
Just what sin have I been guilty of
Tell me how I came to lose your love
Please answer me sweetheart
You were mine yesterday
I believed that love was here to stay
Won't you tell me how I've gone astray
Please answer me my love
If you're happier without me
I'll try not to care
But if you still think about me
Please listen to my prayer
You must know that I've been true
Won't you say that we can start anew
In my sorrow now I turn to you
Please answer me my love
If you're happier without me
I'll try not to care
But if you still think about me
Please listen to my prayer
You must know that I've been true
Won't you say that we can start anew
In my sorrow now I turn to you
Please answer me my love
Answer me my love

Please Come Home For Christmas lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Bells will be ringing the glad, glad news
Oh what a christmas to have the blues
My baby's gone (my baby's gone) I have no friends
To wish me greetings once again
Choirs will be singing silent night
Those christmas carols by candlelight
Please come home for christmas (please come home)
Please come home for christmas (please come home)
If not for christmas by new year's night
Friends and relations send salutations
Just as sure as the stars shine above (yes they do)
This is christmas, christmas my dear
The time of year to be with the one that you love
Then won't you tell me, you'll never more roam
Christmas and new year (christmas and new year's)
Will find you at home
There'll be no more sorrow, no grief or pain
I'll be happy (happy) that it's christmas once again.
Oh what a christmas to have the blues

Let There Be Peace On Earth lyrics - Harry Connick Jr (feat. Kim Burrell)
Let there be peace on earth
And let it begin with me.
Let there be peace on earth
The peace that was meant to be.
With God as our father
Brothers all are we.
Let me walk with my brother
In perfect harmony.
Let peace begin with me
Let this be the moment now.
With every step I take
Let this be my solemn vow.
To take each moment
And live each moment
With peace eternally.
Let there be peace on earth,
And let it begin with me.
Let there be peace on earth
And let it begin with me.
Let there be peace on earth
The peace that was meant to be.
With God as our father
Brothers all are we.
Let me walk with my brother
In perfect harmony.
Let peace begin with me
Let this be the moment now.
With every step I take
Let this be my solemn vow.
To take each moment
And live each moment
In peace eternally.
Let there be peace on earth
And let it begin with me.
And let it begin with me.
Let there be peace on earth
The peace that was meant to be.
With God as our father
Brothers all are we.
Let me walk with my brother
In perfect harmony.
Let peace begin with me
Let this be the moment now.
With every step I take
Let this be my solemn vow.
To take each moment
And live each moment
With peace eternally.
Let there be peace on earth,
And let it begin with me.
Let there be peace on earth
And let it begin with me.
Let there be peace on earth
The peace that was meant to be.
With God as our father
Brothers all are we.

Let this be the moment now.
With every step I take
Let this be my solemn vow.
To take each moment
And live each moment
In peace eternally.
Let there be peace on earth
And let it begin with me.
It's Beginning To Look A Lot Like Christmas lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas
Ev'rywhere you go
Take a look in the five-and-ten,
Glistening once again
With candy canes and silver lanes aglow
It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas
Toys in ev'ry store
But the prettiest sight to see
Is the holly that will be
On your own front door
A pair of hopalong boots and a pistol that shoots
Is the wish of Barney and Ben
Dolls that will talk and will go for a walk
Is the hope of Janice and Jen
And Mom and Dad can hardly wait for school to start again
It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas
Ev'rywhere you go
There's a tree in the Grand Hotel,
One in the park as well
The sturdy kind that doesn't mind the snow
It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas
Soon the bells will start
And the thing that will make them ring
Is the carol that you sing
Right within your heart
Ev'rywhere you go
Take a look in the five-and-ten,
Glistening once again
With candy canes and silver lanes aglow
It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas
Toys in ev'ry store
But the prettiest sight to see
Is the holly that will be
On your own front door
A pair of hopalong boots and a pistol that shoots
Is the wish of Barney and Ben
Dolls that will talk and will go for a walk
Is the hope of Janice and Jen
And Mom and Dad can hardly wait for school to start again
It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas
Ev'rywhere you go
There's a tree in the Grand Hotel,
One in the park as well
The sturdy kind that doesn't mind the snow
It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas
Soon the bells will start
And the thing that will make them ring
Is the carol that you sing
Right within your heart
Jingle Bells lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Dashing through the snow
In a one horse open sleigh
O'er the fields we go
Laughing all the way
Bells on bob-tails ring
Making spirits bright
What fun it is to laugh and sing
A sleighing song tonight
Jingle bells, jingle bells
Jingle all the way
Oh, what fun it is to ride
In a one horse open sleigh
Jingle bells, jingle bells
Jingle all the way
Oh, what fun it is to ride
In a one horse open sleigh
A day or two ago
I thought I'd take a ride
And soon Miss Fanny Bright
Was seated by my side
The horse was lean and lank
Misfortune seemed his lot
We got into a drifted bank
And we all got upsot
Jingle bells, jingle bells
Jingle all the way
Oh, what fun it is to ride
In a one horse open sleigh
Jingle bells, jingle bells
Jingle all the way
Oh, what fun it is to ride
In a one horse open sleigh yeah
A day or two ago
The story I must tell
I went out on the snow
And on my back I fell
A gent was riding by
In a one-horse open sleigh
He laughed as there I sprawling lie
But quickly drove away
Now the ground is white
Go it while you're young
Take the girls tonight
And sing this sleighing song
Just get a bob-tailed bay
Two-forty as his speed
Hitch him to an open sleigh and crack!
You'll take the lead
In a one horse open sleigh
O'er the fields we go
Laughing all the way
Bells on bob-tails ring
Making spirits bright
What fun it is to laugh and sing
A sleighing song tonight
Jingle bells, jingle bells
Jingle all the way
Oh, what fun it is to ride
In a one horse open sleigh
Jingle bells, jingle bells
Jingle all the way
Oh, what fun it is to ride
In a one horse open sleigh
A day or two ago
I thought I'd take a ride
And soon Miss Fanny Bright
Was seated by my side
The horse was lean and lank
Misfortune seemed his lot
We got into a drifted bank
And we all got upsot
Jingle bells, jingle bells
Jingle all the way
Oh, what fun it is to ride
In a one horse open sleigh
Jingle bells, jingle bells
Jingle all the way
Oh, what fun it is to ride

Zat You Santa Claus lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
'Zat you, Santa Claus?
Gifts I'm preparin'
For some Christmas sharin'
But I pause because
Hangin' my stockin'
I can hear a knockin'
'Zat you, Santa Claus

Not the slighest spark out
Pardon my clackin' jaws
Uh, who there
Who is it

'Zat you, Santa Claus
Are you bringin' a present for me
Something pleasantly pleasant for me
That's what I've been waitin' for
Would you mind slippin' it under the door
Four winds are howlin'
Or maybe that be growlin'
My legs feel like straws
Oh my, my, me, my

Whoa there Santa you gave me a scare
Now stop teasin' 'cause I know you're there
We don't believe in no goblins today
But I can't explain why I'm shakin' this way
Well I see old Santa in the keyhole
I'll give to the cause
One peek and I'll try there
Uh-oh there's an eye there
'Zat you, Santa Claus

Say that's you Santa Claus
That's him alright

We Three Kings lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
We three kings of Orient are;
Bearing gifts we traverse afar,
Field and fountain, moor and mountain,
Following yonder star.
[Refrain:]
O star of wonder, star of light,
Star with royal beauty bright,
Westward leading, still proceeding,
Guide us to thy perfect light.
Born a King on Bethlehem's plain
Gold I bring to crown Him again,
King forever, ceasing never,
Over us all to reign.
[Refrain]
Frankincense to offer have I;
Incense owns a Deity nigh;
Prayer and praising, voices raising,
Worshipping God on high.
[Refrain]
Myrrh is mine, its bitter perfume
Breathes a life of gathering gloom;
Sorrowing, sighing, bleeding, dying,
Sealed in the stone cold tomb.
[Refrain]
Glorious now behold Him arise;
King and God and sacrifice;
Alleluia, Alleluia,
Sounds through the earth and skies.
[Refrain]
Bearing gifts we traverse afar,
Field and fountain, moor and mountain,
Following yonder star.
[Refrain:]
O star of wonder, star of light,

Song For The Hopeful lyrics - Harry Connick Jr (feat. Kim Burrell)
People with hope
Have a special prayer,
A louder drum,
A brighter flare.
This is a song for the hopeful.
May God hear it sung.
People with faith
Are the lucky kind.
They'll be the ones
With peace of mind.
This is a song for the faithful.
May God hear it sung.
There's a song for the doubtful.
There's a song for the lost.
There's a song for the desert
Barren, but crossed.
But for those who are strong of spirit,
Maybe they don't need to hear it.
But still, a song for them.
A simple song for them.
Nothing can shade
A seasoned soul.
It's all the loss
That makes it whole.
This is a song for the hopeful.
This is a song for the faithful.
This is a song for the hopeful.
May God hear it sung.
May God hear it sung.
May God hear it sung.
Have a special prayer,
A louder drum,
A brighter flare.
This is a song for the hopeful.
May God hear it sung.
People with faith
Are the lucky kind.
They'll be the ones
With peace of mind.
This is a song for the faithful.
May God hear it sung.
There's a song for the doubtful.
There's a song for the lost.
There's a song for the desert
Barren, but crossed.
But for those who are strong of spirit,
Maybe they don't need to hear it.
But still, a song for them.
A simple song for them.
Nothing can shade
A seasoned soul.
It's all the loss
That makes it whole.
This is a song for the hopeful.
This is a song for the faithful.
This is a song for the hopeful.
May God hear it sung.
May God hear it sung.
May God hear it sung.
Auld Lang Syne lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
And never brought to mind?
Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
And auld lang syne?
For auld lang syne, my dear,
For auld lang syne.
We'll take a cup o' kindness yet,
For auld lang syne.
And surely ye'll be your pint-stowp!
And surely I'll be mine!
And we'll take a cup o' kindness yet,
For auld lang syne.
We twa hae run about the braes
And pou'd the gowans fine.
We've wandered mony a weary foot,
Sin' auld lang syne.
We twa hae sported i' the burn,
From morning sun till dine,
But seas between us braid hae roared
Sin' auld lang syne.
And ther's a hand, my trusty friend,
And gie's a hand o' thine;
We'll tak' a right good willie-waught,,
For auld lang syne.
And never brought to mind?
Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
And auld lang syne?
For auld lang syne, my dear,
For auld lang syne.
We'll take a cup o' kindness yet,
For auld lang syne.
And surely ye'll be your pint-stowp!
And surely I'll be mine!
And we'll take a cup o' kindness yet,
For auld lang syne.
We twa hae run about the braes
And pou'd the gowans fine.
We've wandered mony a weary foot,
Sin' auld lang syne.
We twa hae sported i' the burn,
From morning sun till dine,
But seas between us braid hae roared
Sin' auld lang syne.
And ther's a hand, my trusty friend,
And gie's a hand o' thine;
We'll tak' a right good willie-waught,,
For auld lang syne.
Deck The Halls lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Christmas time is here
Happiness and cheer
Fun for all that children call
Their favorite time of the year
Snowflakes in the air
Carols everywhere
Olden times and ancient rhymes
Of love and dreams to share
Sleigh bells in the air
Beauty everywhere
Yuletide by the fireside
And joyful memories there
Deck the halls with boughs of holly,
Fa la la la la, la la la la.
Tis the season to be jolly,
Fa la la la la, la la la la.
Don we now our gay apparel,
Fa la la, la la la, la la la.
Troll the ancient Yule tide carol,
Fa la la la la, la la la la.
See the blazing Yule before us,
Fa la la la la, la la la la.
Strike the harp and join the chorus.
Fa la la la la, la la la la.
Follow me in merry measure,
Fa la la la la, la la la la.
While I tell of Yule tide treasure,
Fa la la la la, la la la la.
Fast away the old year passes,
Fa la la la la, la la la la.
Hail the new, ye lads and lasses,
Fa la la la la, la la la la.
Sing we joyous, all together,
Fa la la la la, la la la la.
Heedless of the wind and weather,
Fa la la la la, la la la la.
Christmas time is here
We'll be drawing near
Oh, that we could always see
Such spirit through the year
Oh, that we could always see
Such spirit through the year...
Happiness and cheer
Fun for all that children call
Their favorite time of the year
Snowflakes in the air
Carols everywhere
Olden times and ancient rhymes
Of love and dreams to share
Sleigh bells in the air
Beauty everywhere
Yuletide by the fireside
And joyful memories there
Deck the halls with boughs of holly,
Fa la la la la, la la la la.
Tis the season to be jolly,
Fa la la la la, la la la la.
Don we now our gay apparel,
Fa la la, la la la, la la la.
Troll the ancient Yule tide carol,
Fa la la la la, la la la la.
See the blazing Yule before us,
Fa la la la la, la la la la.
Strike the harp and join the chorus.
Fa la la la la, la la la la.
Follow me in merry measure,
Fa la la la la, la la la la.
While I tell of Yule tide treasure,
Fa la la la la, la la la la.
Fast away the old year passes,
Fa la la la la, la la la la.
Hail the new, ye lads and lasses,
Fa la la la la, la la la la.
Sing we joyous, all together,
Fa la la la la, la la la la.
Heedless of the wind and weather,
Fa la la la la, la la la la.
Christmas time is here
We'll be drawing near
Oh, that we could always see
Such spirit through the year
Oh, that we could always see
Such spirit through the year...
Christmas Time Is Here lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Christmas time is here
Happiness and cheer
Fun for all that children call
Their favorite time of the year
Snowflakes in the air
Carols everywhere
Olden times and ancient rhymes
Of love and dreams to share
Sleigh bells in the air
Beauty everywhere
Yuletide by the fireside
And joyful memories there
Christmas time is here
We'll be drawing near
Oh, that we could always see
Such spirit through the year
Oh, that we could always see
Such spirit through the year...
Happiness and cheer
Fun for all that children call
Their favorite time of the year
Snowflakes in the air
Carols everywhere
Olden times and ancient rhymes
Of love and dreams to share
Sleigh bells in the air
Beauty everywhere
Yuletide by the fireside
And joyful memories there
Christmas time is here
We'll be drawing near
Oh, that we could always see
Such spirit through the year
Oh, that we could always see
Such spirit through the year...

Won't You Come Home, Bill Bailey? lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
On one summer's day,
The Sun was shinin' fine,
The lady love of old Bill Bailey
Was hangin' clothes on the line
In her back yard,
And weepin' hard.
She married a B&O brakeman
That took and throwed her down,
Bellerin' like a prune-fed calf
With a big gang hanging round
And to that crowd,
She hollered loud
[Chorus:]
Won't you come home, Bill Bailey
Won't you come home?
She moans the whole day long.
I'll do the cookin', darling
I'll pay the rent,
I know I've done you wrong;
'member that rainy eve that
I threw you out,
With nothing but a fine-tooth comb?
I know I'm to blame,
Well, ain't that a shame
Bill Bailey won't you please come home.
Bill drove by that door
In an automobile,
A great big diamond, coach and footman
Hear that lady squeal.
He's all alone
I heard her groan.
She hollered through the door
Bill Bailey, is you sore?
Stop a minute, listen to me
Won't I see you no more?
Bill winks his eye
As he heard her cry
[Chorus]

Something You Got lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Something you got
Makes me work all day

Let Them Talk lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Let them talk if they want to
Talk don't bother me
I want the whole wide world to know
That I love you so
Let them whisper
For they know not what's
Between you and I
I'll keep on loving you
Until the day I die
They're tryin' to breakup our romance
But they don't have a chance
We have the kind of love
That's so strong
We'll be together from now on
Idle gossip comes from the devil's workshop
But true love will make it stop
I want the whole wide world to know
That I love you so
They're envious of ev'rything we do
But it's so wonderful (wonderful)
When you love some one (love someone)
When that someone loves you.
Talk don't bother me
I want the whole wide world to know
That I love you so
Let them whisper
For they know not what's
Between you and I
I'll keep on loving you
Until the day I die
They're tryin' to breakup our romance
But they don't have a chance
We have the kind of love
That's so strong
We'll be together from now on
Idle gossip comes from the devil's workshop
But true love will make it stop
I want the whole wide world to know
That I love you so
They're envious of ev'rything we do
But it's so wonderful (wonderful)
When you love some one (love someone)
When that someone loves you.
Jambalaya (On The Bayou) lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Goodbye, Joe, me gotta go, me oh my oh.
Me gotta go, pole the pirogue down the bayou.
My Yvonne, the sweetest one, me oh my oh.
Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou.
Jambalaya and a crawfish pie and file* gumbo
'Cause tonight I'm gonna see my ma cher amio.
Pick guitar, fill fruit jar and be gayo,
Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou.
Thibodaux, Fontaineaux, the place is buzzin',
Kinfolk come to see Yvonne by the dozen.
Dress in style and go hog wild, me oh my oh.
Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou.
Jambalaya and a crawfish pie and file gumbo
'Cause tonight I'm gonna see my ma cher amio.
Pick guitar, fill fruit jar and be gayo,
Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou.
Settle down far from town, get me a pirogue
And I'll catch all the fish in the bayou.
Swap my mon to buy Yvonne what she need-o.
Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou.
Jambalaya and a crawfish pie and file gumbo
'Cause tonight I'm gonna see my ma cher amio.
Pick guitar, fill fruit jar and be gayo,
Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou.
Me gotta go, pole the pirogue down the bayou.
My Yvonne, the sweetest one, me oh my oh.
Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou.
Jambalaya and a crawfish pie and file* gumbo
'Cause tonight I'm gonna see my ma cher amio.
Pick guitar, fill fruit jar and be gayo,
Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou.
Thibodaux, Fontaineaux, the place is buzzin',
Kinfolk come to see Yvonne by the dozen.
Dress in style and go hog wild, me oh my oh.
Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou.
Jambalaya and a crawfish pie and file gumbo
'Cause tonight I'm gonna see my ma cher amio.
Pick guitar, fill fruit jar and be gayo,
Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou.
Settle down far from town, get me a pirogue
And I'll catch all the fish in the bayou.
Swap my mon to buy Yvonne what she need-o.
Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou.
Jambalaya and a crawfish pie and file gumbo

Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou.
Careless Love lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Love oh love careless love
Love oh love careless love
Love oh love oh careless love
See what careless love has done
Once I wore my apron low [3x]
I couldn't keep you from my door
What oh what will mama say [3x]
When she learns I've gone astray
I love my mama and papa too [3x]
See what I get for lovin' you
Now I wear my apron high [3x]
You pass my door you walk on by
Love oh love careless love
Love oh love oh careless love
See what careless love has done
Once I wore my apron low [3x]
I couldn't keep you from my door
What oh what will mama say [3x]
When she learns I've gone astray
I love my mama and papa too [3x]
See what I get for lovin' you
Now I wear my apron high [3x]
You pass my door you walk on by
Yes We Can Can lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Now is the time
Now is the time for all good men
To get together with one another
Iron out our problems
And iron out our quarrels
And try to live as brothers
And try to find a piece within
Without stepping on one another
And do respect the women of the world
Just remember you all have mothers
Make this land a better land
Than the world in which we live
And help each man be a better man
With the kindness that you give
I know we can make it
I know darn well we can work it out
Oh yes we can, I know we can can
Yes we can can, why can't we
If we wanna get yes we can can
I know we can make it a world
I know we can make it if we try
Oh yes we can, I know we can can
Yes we can can, great, got your money
Yes we can, I know we can can
Take care of the children
The children of the world
They're our strongest hope for the future
The little bitty boys and girls
Make this land a better land
Than the world in which we live
And help each man be a better man
With the kindness that you give
I know we can make it (I know that we can)
I know darn well we can work it out
Oh yes we can, I know we can can
Yes we can can, why can't we
If we wanna get yes we can can
I know we can make it a world
I know we can make it if we try
Oh yes we can, I know we can can
Yes we can can, great, got your money
Yes we can, I know we can can
Now is the time for all good men
To get together with one another

And iron out our quarrels
And try to live as brothers
And try to find a piece within

Elijah Rock lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
[Chorus:]
Elijah Rock shout shout
Elijah Rock comin' up Lord
Elijah Rock shout shout
Elijah Rock comin' up Lord
Satan is a liar and a conjure too
If you don't (mind high) watch out
He'll conjure you
If I could I sho'ly would
Stand on the rock where Moses stood
[Chorus]
Ezekiel said he saw him
Wheel in the mid' of a wheel
John talked about him
In the book of the 7 seals
Some say the Rose of Sharon
Others say the Prince of Peace
But I can tell everybody (this ol' world)
He been a rock and a shelter for me
Hallelujah
[Chorus]
You can call my rock in the morning
Call him late at night
He's always with me
And all my battles he'll fight
When I'm in trouble
I can call him on the line
He put a telephone in my heart
And I can call God anytime
Hallelujah
[Chorus]
Elijah Rock shout shout
Elijah Rock comin' up Lord
Elijah Rock shout shout
Elijah Rock comin' up Lord
Satan is a liar and a conjure too
If you don't (mind high) watch out
He'll conjure you
If I could I sho'ly would
Stand on the rock where Moses stood

Ezekiel said he saw him
Wheel in the mid' of a wheel

And I can call God anytime
Hallelujah

Lazybones lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Lazybones, sleeping in the sun
How you 'spect to get your day's work done?
Never get your day's work done
Sleeping in the new day's sun
Lazybones, sleepin in the shade
How you 'spect to get your cornmeal made?
You'll never get your cornmeal made
Just sleepin in the evenin shade
When 'taters need spraying I bet you keep praying
The bugs fall off the vine
And when you go fishin, I bet you keep wishin
The fish won't grab your line
Lazybones, loafing through the day
How you 'spect to get a dime that way?
Never make a dime that way
Never heard a word I say
How you 'spect to get your day's work done?
Never get your day's work done
Sleeping in the new day's sun
Lazybones, sleepin in the shade
How you 'spect to get your cornmeal made?
You'll never get your cornmeal made
Just sleepin in the evenin shade
When 'taters need spraying I bet you keep praying
The bugs fall off the vine
And when you go fishin, I bet you keep wishin
The fish won't grab your line
Lazybones, loafing through the day
How you 'spect to get a dime that way?
Never make a dime that way
Never heard a word I say

Wakin'... sleepin'... laughin'...weepin'.

Than always is a long, long time,
But far beyond forever,
You'll be mine.
I know I've never lived before,
And my heart is very sure
No one else could love you more.

The Very Thought Of You lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
The very thought of you and I forget to do
The little ordinary things that everyone ought to do
I'm living in a kind of daydream
I'm happy as a king
And foolish though it may seem
To me that's everything
The mere idea of you, the longing here for you
You'll never know how slow the moments go till I'm near you
I see your face in every flower
Your eyes in stars above
It's just the thought of you
The very thought of you, my love
[instrumental interlude]
I see your face in every flower
Your eyes in stars above
It's just the thought of you
The very thought of you, my love
The little ordinary things that everyone ought to do
I'm living in a kind of daydream
I'm happy as a king
And foolish though it may seem
To me that's everything
The mere idea of you, the longing here for you
You'll never know how slow the moments go till I'm near you
I see your face in every flower
Your eyes in stars above
It's just the thought of you
The very thought of you, my love
[instrumental interlude]
I see your face in every flower
Your eyes in stars above
It's just the thought of you
The very thought of you, my love
Save The Last Dance For Me lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
You can dance
Every dance with the guy who gives you the eye
Let him hold you tight
You can smile
Every smile for the man who held your hand
'neath the pale moonlight
But don't forget who's takin' you home
And in whose arms you're gonna be
So darlin' save the last dance for me
Well you can know
That the music's fine like sparklin' wine
Go and have your fun
Love and sing
But while we're apart, don't you give your heart to anyone
But don't forget who's takin' you home
And in whose arms you're gonna be
So darlin', save the last dance for me
Baby don't you know I love you so
Can't you feel it when we touch
I will never never let you go
I love you so much
Well you can dance
You can carry on till the night is gone
And it's time to go
If he asks
If you're all alone, can he take you home
You must tell him no
Cause don't forget who's takin' you home
And in whose arms you're gonna be
So darlin', save the last dance for me
Every dance with the guy who gives you the eye
Let him hold you tight
You can smile
Every smile for the man who held your hand
'neath the pale moonlight
But don't forget who's takin' you home
And in whose arms you're gonna be
So darlin' save the last dance for me
Well you can know
That the music's fine like sparklin' wine
Go and have your fun
Love and sing
But while we're apart, don't you give your heart to anyone
But don't forget who's takin' you home
And in whose arms you're gonna be
So darlin', save the last dance for me
Baby don't you know I love you so
Can't you feel it when we touch
I will never never let you go

Cause don't forget who's takin' you home
And in whose arms you're gonna be
So darlin', save the last dance for me
My Blue Heaven lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
When whippoorwills call and evening is nigh,
I hurry to my Blue Heaven.
A turn to the right, a little white light,
Will lead me to my Blue Heaven.
I'll see a smiling face, a fireplace, a cozy room,
A little nest that nestles where the roses bloom;
Just Jilly and me, and baby makes three,
We're happy in my Blue Heaven.
You know I'm gonna see a smiling face, a fireplace, a cozy room,
A little nest that nestles where the roses bloom;
Just Jilly and me, and baby makes three,
We're happy in my Blue Heaven.
I hurry to my Blue Heaven.
A turn to the right, a little white light,
Will lead me to my Blue Heaven.
I'll see a smiling face, a fireplace, a cozy room,
A little nest that nestles where the roses bloom;
Just Jilly and me, and baby makes three,
We're happy in my Blue Heaven.
You know I'm gonna see a smiling face, a fireplace, a cozy room,
A little nest that nestles where the roses bloom;
Just Jilly and me, and baby makes three,
We're happy in my Blue Heaven.
You Don't Know Me lyrics -
You give your hand to me
Then you say hello
And I can hardly speak
My heart is beating so
And anyone can tell
You think you know me well
But you don't know me
Ooh no
You don't know the one
Who dreams of you at night
And longs to kiss your lips
Longs to hold you tight
I'm just a friend
That's all I've ever been
Cause you don't know me
For I never knew the art of making love
Though my heart aches with love for you
Afraid and shy I let my chance go by
The chance that you might love me too
You give your hand to me
Then you say goodbye
I watch you walk away beside the lucky guy
You'll never never know
The one who loves you so
Well you don't know me
Oh I never knew the art of making love
Though my heart aches with love for you
Afraid and shy I let my chance go by
The chance that you might love me too
You give your hand to me
Ten you say goodbye
I watch you walk away beside the lucky guy
Oh you will never know The one who loves you so
Cause you don't know me
Oh no you don't know me
Oohh...you don't know me
Then you say hello
And I can hardly speak
My heart is beating so
And anyone can tell
You think you know me well
But you don't know me
Ooh no
You don't know the one
Who dreams of you at night
And longs to kiss your lips
Longs to hold you tight
I'm just a friend
That's all I've ever been
Cause you don't know me
For I never knew the art of making love
Though my heart aches with love for you
Afraid and shy I let my chance go by
The chance that you might love me too
You give your hand to me
Then you say goodbye
I watch you walk away beside the lucky guy
You'll never never know
The one who loves you so
Well you don't know me
Oh I never knew the art of making love
Though my heart aches with love for you
Afraid and shy I let my chance go by
The chance that you might love me too
You give your hand to me
Ten you say goodbye
I watch you walk away beside the lucky guy
Oh you will never know The one who loves you so
Cause you don't know me
Oh no you don't know me
Oohh...you don't know me
All These Things lyrics -
The touch of your lips next to mine
Gets me excited, makes me feel fine
The touch of your hand, your sweet hello
The fire inside you when you're holding me close
Your love so warm and tender
The thrill is so divine
It is all these things that make you mine
Make you mine
If you would leave, I surely would die
When you were ten minutes late
I started to cry
I've got it bad, it's all right
As long as you're here every night
Your love so warm and tender
The thrill is so divine
It is all these things, baby, that make you mine
Your love so warm and tender
The thrill is so divine
It is all these things that make you mine
Gets me excited, makes me feel fine
The touch of your hand, your sweet hello
The fire inside you when you're holding me close
Your love so warm and tender
The thrill is so divine
It is all these things that make you mine
Make you mine
If you would leave, I surely would die
When you were ten minutes late
I started to cry
I've got it bad, it's all right
As long as you're here every night
Your love so warm and tender
The thrill is so divine
It is all these things, baby, that make you mine
Your love so warm and tender
The thrill is so divine
It is all these things that make you mine
For Once In My Life lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
For once in my life I have someone who needs me
Someone I've needed so
For once unafraid I can go where life leads me
And somehow I know I'll be strong
For once I can touch what my heart used to dream of
Long before I knew
Someone warm like you
Could make my dreams come true
For once in my life I won't let sorrow hurt me
Not like it's hurt me before
For once I've got someone I know won't desert me
I'm not alone anymore
For once I can say: "this is mine you can't take it"
As long as I've got love I know I can make it
For once in my life I've got someone who needs me
For once in my life I won't let sorrow hurt me
Not like it's hurt me before
For once I've got someone I know won't desert me
I'm not alone anymore
Now, for once I can say: "this is mine you can't take it"
As long as I've got love I know I can make it
For once in my life I've got someone who needs me
For once in my life, she needs me
For once in my life
Someone I've needed so
For once unafraid I can go where life leads me
And somehow I know I'll be strong
For once I can touch what my heart used to dream of
Long before I knew
Someone warm like you
Could make my dreams come true
For once in my life I won't let sorrow hurt me
Not like it's hurt me before
For once I've got someone I know won't desert me
I'm not alone anymore
For once I can say: "this is mine you can't take it"
As long as I've got love I know I can make it
For once in my life I've got someone who needs me
For once in my life I won't let sorrow hurt me
Not like it's hurt me before
For once I've got someone I know won't desert me
I'm not alone anymore
Now, for once I can say: "this is mine you can't take it"
As long as I've got love I know I can make it
For once in my life I've got someone who needs me
For once in my life, she needs me
For once in my life
Only You lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
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, 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
Only you, only you can make this change in me
For it's true, oh baby 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
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, 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
Only you, only you can make this change in me
For it's true, oh baby 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
My Prayer lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
[Written by Jimmy Kennedy]
My prayer is to linger with you
At the end of the day
In a dream that's divine...
My prayer is a rapture in blue
With the world far away
And your lips close to mine.
Tonight, while our hearts are aglow,
Oh, tell me the words that I'm longing to know...
My prayer and the answer you give,
May they still be the same for as long as we live,
That you'll always be there
At the end of my prayer
When the twilight is gone
And no songbird is singing
When the twilight is gone
You come into my heart
And here in my heart do you stay
While I pray
Tonight, while our hearts are aglow,
Oh, tell me the words that I'm longing to know...
My prayer and the answer you give,
May they still be the same for as long as we live,
That you'll always be there
At the end of my prayer
My prayer is to linger with you
At the end of the day
In a dream that's divine...
My prayer is a rapture in blue
With the world far away
And your lips close to mine.
Tonight, while our hearts are aglow,
Oh, tell me the words that I'm longing to know...
My prayer and the answer you give,
May they still be the same for as long as we live,
That you'll always be there
At the end of my prayer
When the twilight is gone
And no songbird is singing
When the twilight is gone
You come into my heart
And here in my heart do you stay
While I pray
Tonight, while our hearts are aglow,
Oh, tell me the words that I'm longing to know...
My prayer and the answer you give,
May they still be the same for as long as we live,
That you'll always be there
At the end of my prayer
I Only Have Eyes For You lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Are the stars out tonight?
I don't know if it's cloudy or bright
'cause I only have eyes for you, dear
The moon may be high
But I can't see a thing in the sky
'cause I only have eyes for you.
I don't know if we're in a garden
Or on a crowded avenue
You are here, so am I
Maybe millions of people go by
But they all disappear from view
Cause I only have eyes for you
I don't know if we're in a garden
Or on a crowded avenue
You are here, so am I
Maybe millions of people go by
But they all disappear from view
Cause I only have eyes for you
I don't know if it's cloudy or bright
'cause I only have eyes for you, dear
The moon may be high
But I can't see a thing in the sky
'cause I only have eyes for you.
I don't know if we're in a garden
Or on a crowded avenue
You are here, so am I
Maybe millions of people go by
But they all disappear from view
Cause I only have eyes for you
I don't know if we're in a garden
Or on a crowded avenue
You are here, so am I
Maybe millions of people go by
But they all disappear from view
Cause I only have eyes for you
Good Night My Love (Pleasant Dreams) lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Goodnight, my love
Pleasant dreams and sleep tight, my love
May tomorrow be sunny and bright
And bring you closer to me

If you should awake in the still of the night
Please have no fear

Then you realize
That my love will watch over you, dear, always

If you should awake in the still of the night
Please have no fear
Just close your eyes
Then you realize
That my love will watch over you, dear, always
Goodnight, my love
Pleasant dreams and sleep tight, my love
May tomorrow be sunny and bright

Frosty The Snowman lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Frosty the Snowman
Was a jolly happy soul
With a corncob pipe and a button nose
And two eyes made out of coal
Frosty the Snowman
Is a fairytale, they say
He was made of snow but the children know
How he came to life one day
There must have been some magic
In that old silk they found
For when they placed it on his head
He began to dance around
Frosty the Snowman
Was alive as he could be
Dns the children say he could laugh and play
Just the same as you and me
Thumpety thump thump
Thumpety thump thump
Look at Frosty go
Thumpety thump thump
Thumpety thump thump
Over the hills of snow
Frosty the Snowman
Knew the sun was hot that day
So he said, "Let's run and we'll have some fun
Now before I melt away"
Down to the village
With a brooomstick in his hand
Running here and there, all around the square,
Sayin', "Catch me if you can"
He led them down the streets of town
Right to the traffic cop
And he only paused a moment
When he heard him holler, "Stop!"
Frosty the Snowman
Had to hurry on his way
But he waved goodbye, sayin' "Don't you cry,
I'll be back again some day."
Thumpety thump thump
Thumpety thump thump
Look at Frosty go
Thumpety thump thump
Thumpety thump thump
Over the hills of snow
He'll be back
Yes he will
Again someday
See you next year Frosty!
Was a jolly happy soul

Blue Christmas lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
I'll have a blue Christmas without you
I'll be so blue just thinking about you
Decorations of red on a green Christmas tree
They won't mean a think, if you're not here with me
I'll have a blue Christmas that's certain
And when that blue heartache starts hurtin'
You'll be doin' all right, with your Christmas of white
But I'll have a blue, blue blue blue Christmas
You'll be doin' all right, with your Christmas of white
But I'll have a blue, blue blue blue Christmas
But I'll have a blue, blue blue blue Christmas
But I'll have a blue, blue blue blue Christmas
I'll be so blue just thinking about you
Decorations of red on a green Christmas tree
They won't mean a think, if you're not here with me
I'll have a blue Christmas that's certain
And when that blue heartache starts hurtin'
You'll be doin' all right, with your Christmas of white
But I'll have a blue, blue blue blue Christmas
You'll be doin' all right, with your Christmas of white
But I'll have a blue, blue blue blue Christmas
But I'll have a blue, blue blue blue Christmas
But I'll have a blue, blue blue blue Christmas
The Christmas Waltz lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Frosted windowpanes
Candles gleaming inside
Painted candy canes on the tree
Santa's on his way
He's filled his sleigh with things
Things for you and me
It's that time of year
When the world falls in love
Ev'ry song you hear seems to say
Merry Christmas
May your New Year dreams come true
And this song of mine
In three-quarter time
Wishes you and yours
The same thing too
Candles gleaming inside
Painted candy canes on the tree
Santa's on his way
He's filled his sleigh with things
Things for you and me
It's that time of year
When the world falls in love
Ev'ry song you hear seems to say
Merry Christmas
May your New Year dreams come true
And this song of mine
In three-quarter time
Wishes you and yours
The same thing too
I Wonder As I Wander lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
I wonder as I wander, out under the sky
How Jesus the savior, did come to die
To save lowly people like you and like I
I wonder as I wander, out under the sky
Sweet Mary laid Jesus, within a cow's stall
Came wise men and farmers and shepherds and all
The blessings of Christmas heaven did fall
And God's promise of ages, to them did recall
If Jesus had wanted for any small thing
A cloud in the sky or a bird on the wing
Or all of God's angels in heaven to sing
He surely could have had it, because
He was the King
Because He was King!
How Jesus the savior, did come to die
To save lowly people like you and like I
I wonder as I wander, out under the sky
Sweet Mary laid Jesus, within a cow's stall
Came wise men and farmers and shepherds and all
The blessings of Christmas heaven did fall
And God's promise of ages, to them did recall
If Jesus had wanted for any small thing
A cloud in the sky or a bird on the wing
Or all of God's angels in heaven to sing
He surely could have had it, because
He was the King
Because He was King!
Silver Bells lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
City sidewalks
Busy sidewalks
Dressed in holiday style
In the air there's a feeling like Christmas
Children laughing
People passing
Meeting smile after smile
And on every street corner you hear
Silver bells, silver bells
It's Christmas time in the city
Ring-a-ling, hear them sing
Soon it will be Christmas day
Strings of street lights
Even stop lights
Blink a bright red and green
As the shoppers rush home with their treasures
Hear the snow crunch
See the kids bunch
This is Santa's big scene
And above all this bustle you hear
Silver bells, silver bells
It's Christmas time in the city
Ring-a-ling, hear them sing
Soon it will be Christmas day
Busy sidewalks
Dressed in holiday style
In the air there's a feeling like Christmas
Children laughing
People passing
Meeting smile after smile
And on every street corner you hear
Silver bells, silver bells
It's Christmas time in the city
Ring-a-ling, hear them sing
Soon it will be Christmas day
Strings of street lights
Even stop lights
Blink a bright red and green
As the shoppers rush home with their treasures
Hear the snow crunch
See the kids bunch
This is Santa's big scene
And above all this bustle you hear
Silver bells, silver bells
It's Christmas time in the city
Ring-a-ling, hear them sing
Soon it will be Christmas day
Mary's Little Boy Child lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Long time ago in Bethlehem
So the Holy Bible say
Mary's boy child Jesus Christ
Was born on Christmas day
Hark now hear the angels sing
A new king born today
And man will live forevermore
Because of Christmas day
Trumpets sound and angels sing
Listen what they say
That man will live forevermore
Because of Christmas day
While shepherds watch their flock by night
They see a bright new shining star
Then hear a choir sing
The music seemed to come from afar
Now Joseph and his wife Mary
Come to Bethlehem that night
Then find no place to born the child
Not a single room was in sight
Hark now hear the angels sing
A new king born today
And man will live forevermore
Because of Christmas day
Trumpets sound and angels sing
Listen what they say
That man will live forevermore
Because of Christmas day
By and by they find a little nook
In a stable all forlorn
And in a manger cold and dark
Mary's little boy was born
So the Holy Bible say
Mary's boy child Jesus Christ
Was born on Christmas day
Hark now hear the angels sing
A new king born today
And man will live forevermore
Because of Christmas day
Trumpets sound and angels sing
Listen what they say
That man will live forevermore
Because of Christmas day
While shepherds watch their flock by night
They see a bright new shining star
Then hear a choir sing
The music seemed to come from afar
Now Joseph and his wife Mary
Come to Bethlehem that night
Then find no place to born the child
Not a single room was in sight
Hark now hear the angels sing
A new king born today
And man will live forevermore
Because of Christmas day
Trumpets sound and angels sing
Listen what they say
That man will live forevermore
Because of Christmas day
By and by they find a little nook
In a stable all forlorn
And in a manger cold and dark
Mary's little boy was born

I'll be home for Christmas
You can plan on me
Please have snow and mistletoe
And presents on the tree

I'll be home for Christmas If only in my dreams
I Come With Love lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
What was he saying?
Looking to her on the
Night of his birth?
What did he know, this baby?
Could she understand?
How did he know, this baby?
As she held is hand in hers
I come with love
I come with love
To worship and honor
My father above
And so with my eyes
I say to you
Softly and peacefully
I come with love
What was he feeling?
Knowing his time on earth
Wouldn't be long?
What did he think, this young man
In a world of sin?
What would he tell the strangers?
When he took them in his arms?
I come with love
I come with love
To worship and honor
My father above
And so with my eyes
I say to you
Softly and peacefully
I come with love
When he was dying
And his sweet mother was
There by his side
Who did he blame, this savior?
Sending him to death
She could hear it in a whisper
As he took his
Final breath
I come with love
I come with love
To worship and honor
My father above
And so with my eyes
I say to you
Softly and peacefully
I come with love
Looking to her on the
Night of his birth?
What did he know, this baby?
Could she understand?
How did he know, this baby?
As she held is hand in hers
I come with love
I come with love
To worship and honor
My father above
And so with my eyes
I say to you
Softly and peacefully
I come with love
What was he feeling?
Knowing his time on earth
Wouldn't be long?
What did he think, this young man
In a world of sin?
What would he tell the strangers?
When he took them in his arms?
I come with love
I come with love
To worship and honor
My father above
And so with my eyes
I say to you
Softly and peacefully
I come with love
When he was dying
And his sweet mother was
There by his side
Who did he blame, this savior?
Sending him to death
She could hear it in a whisper
As he took his
Final breath
I come with love
I come with love
To worship and honor
My father above
And so with my eyes
I say to you
Softly and peacefully
I come with love
Nature Boy lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
There was a boy
A very strange enchanged boy
They say he wandered very far, very far
Over land and sea
A little shy and sad of eye
But very wise was he
And then one day
A magic day, he passed my way
And while we spoke of many things
Fools and kings
This he said to me
The greatest thing you'll ever learn
Is just to love and be loved in return
A very strange enchanged boy
They say he wandered very far, very far
Over land and sea
A little shy and sad of eye
But very wise was he
And then one day
A magic day, he passed my way
And while we spoke of many things
Fools and kings
This he said to me
The greatest thing you'll ever learn
Is just to love and be loved in return
Little Town Of Bethlehem lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
O little town of Bethlehem
How still we see thee lie
Above thy deep and dreamless sleep
The silent stars go by
Yet in they dark streets shineth
The everlasting light
The hopes and fears of all the years
Are met in thee tonight
For Christ is born of Mary
And gathered all above
While mortals sleep the angels keep
Their watch of wondering love
O morning starts together
Proclaim thy holy birth
And praises sing to God the King
And peace to men on earth
How still we see thee lie
Above thy deep and dreamless sleep
The silent stars go by
Yet in they dark streets shineth
The everlasting light
The hopes and fears of all the years
Are met in thee tonight
For Christ is born of Mary
And gathered all above
While mortals sleep the angels keep
Their watch of wondering love
O morning starts together
Proclaim thy holy birth
And praises sing to God the King
And peace to men on earth
I'm Gonna Be The First One lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
I don't much care
If I am the last in line to see
Whatever that it is
That they're lining up to see
You see, it doesn't concern me
I don't much care
If I am the very last to know
Whatever that it is
That they know about, oh, no
Oh, no I really don't care to know
'Cause when it comes to Santa Claus
And presents 'round the tree
No one I know could ever get jump on me
I'm gonna be the first one
Up on Christmas morning
I'm gonna be the first one
Up on Christmas day
I've always heard that the
Early birdie catches all the worms
But worms ain't for me, no
They're not my cup of tea
And I am certainly not a birdie
Me, I'd rather sleep 'til three
'Cause when it comes to Santa Claus
And presents 'round the tree
No one I know could ever get jump on me
I'm gonna be the first one
Up on Christmas morning
I'm gonna be the first one
Up on Christmas day
If I am the last in line to see
Whatever that it is
That they're lining up to see
You see, it doesn't concern me
I don't much care
If I am the very last to know
Whatever that it is
That they know about, oh, no
Oh, no I really don't care to know
'Cause when it comes to Santa Claus
And presents 'round the tree
No one I know could ever get jump on me
I'm gonna be the first one
Up on Christmas morning
I'm gonna be the first one
Up on Christmas day
I've always heard that the
Early birdie catches all the worms
But worms ain't for me, no
They're not my cup of tea
And I am certainly not a birdie
Me, I'd rather sleep 'til three
'Cause when it comes to Santa Claus
And presents 'round the tree
No one I know could ever get jump on me
I'm gonna be the first one
Up on Christmas morning
I'm gonna be the first one
Up on Christmas day
This Christmas lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Hang all the mistletoe
I'm gonna get to know you better
This Christmas
And as we trim the tree
How much fun it's gonna be together
This Christmas
Fireside is blazing bright
We're caroling through the night
And this Christmas will be
A very special Christmas for me
Presents and cards are here
My world is filled with cheer and you
This Christmas
And as I look around
Your eyes outshine the town, they do
This Christmas
Fireside is blazing bright
We're caroling through the night
And this Christmas will be
A very special Christmas for me
I'm gonna get to know you better
This Christmas
And as we trim the tree
How much fun it's gonna be together
This Christmas
Fireside is blazing bright
We're caroling through the night
And this Christmas will be
A very special Christmas for me
Presents and cards are here
My world is filled with cheer and you
This Christmas
And as I look around
Your eyes outshine the town, they do
This Christmas
Fireside is blazing bright
We're caroling through the night
And this Christmas will be
A very special Christmas for me
Nothin' New For New Year lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
I see my own reflection in the window
I hear the people carry'n on below
I know the one I love is out there somewhere
To me that somewhere's not far to go
Ev'ry year I make my resolution
To find my love and make her all my own
But it looks like she decided not to show again
And I'll be singing 'Auld Lang Syne' alone
People grow accustomed to their lifestyles
It's easier to settle in your ways
I wish that I had someone to get used to
To settle down until my dying days
Nothin' new for new year for me
Nothin' new for new year for me
All I wanted was an angel that I don't expect to see
Nothin' new for new year for me
It don't mean nothing if you're crying all the time
And there's no one there to see your tears
And it don't mean nothing if you're passing up your prime
And I been passing mine for years
And so, to my reflection in the window
I'll raise my glass and make a toast to you
I've never known a man to be heartbroken
My someone that he never even knew
Nothin' new for new year for me
Nothin' new for new year for me
All I wanted was an angel that I don't expect to see
Nothin' new for new year for me
I hear the people carry'n on below
I know the one I love is out there somewhere
To me that somewhere's not far to go
Ev'ry year I make my resolution
To find my love and make her all my own
But it looks like she decided not to show again
And I'll be singing 'Auld Lang Syne' alone
People grow accustomed to their lifestyles
It's easier to settle in your ways
I wish that I had someone to get used to
To settle down until my dying days
Nothin' new for new year for me
Nothin' new for new year for me
All I wanted was an angel that I don't expect to see
Nothin' new for new year for me
It don't mean nothing if you're crying all the time
And there's no one there to see your tears
And it don't mean nothing if you're passing up your prime
And I been passing mine for years
And so, to my reflection in the window
I'll raise my glass and make a toast to you
I've never known a man to be heartbroken
My someone that he never even knew
Nothin' new for new year for me
Nothin' new for new year for me
All I wanted was an angel that I don't expect to see
Nothin' new for new year for me
Silent Night lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Silent night, holy night
All is calm, all is bright
Round yon virgin mother and child
Holy infant so tender and mild
Sleep in heavenly peace
Sleep in heavenly peace
Silent night, holy night
Shepherds quake at the sight
Glories beams from heaven afar
Heavenly hosts sing hallelujah
Christ the savior is born
Christ the savior is born
All is calm, all is bright
Round yon virgin mother and child
Holy infant so tender and mild
Sleep in heavenly peace
Sleep in heavenly peace
Silent night, holy night
Shepherds quake at the sight
Glories beams from heaven afar
Heavenly hosts sing hallelujah
Christ the savior is born
Christ the savior is born
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
[From "Mary Poppins"]
Um diddle diddle diddle um diddle ay
Um diddle diddle diddle um diddle ay
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!
Even though the sound of it
Is something quite atrocious
If you say it loud enough
You'll always sound precocious
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!
Um diddle diddle diddle um diddle ay
Um diddle diddle diddle um diddle ay
Because I was afraid to speak
When I was just a lad
My father gave me nose a tweak
And told me I was bad
But then one day I learned a word
That saved me aching nose
The biggest word I ever heard
And this is how it goes:
Oh, supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!
Even though the sound of it
Is something quite atrocious
If you say it loud enough
You'll always sound precocious
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!
Um diddle diddle diddle um diddle ay
Um diddle diddle diddle um diddle ay
So when the cat has got your tongue
There's no need for dismay
Just summon up this word
And then you've got a lot to say
But better use it carefully
Or it may change your life
One night I said it to me girl
And now me girl's my wife!
She's supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!
Um diddle diddle diddle um diddle ay
Um diddle diddle diddle um diddle ay
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!
Even though the sound of it
Is something quite atrocious
If you say it loud enough
You'll always sound precocious
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!
Um diddle diddle diddle um diddle ay
Um diddle diddle diddle um diddle ay
Because I was afraid to speak
When I was just a lad
My father gave me nose a tweak

The biggest word I ever heard
And this is how it goes:
Oh, supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!
Even though the sound of it

You'll always sound precocious
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!

Um diddle diddle diddle um diddle ay
So when the cat has got your tongue
There's no need for dismay

Or it may change your life
One night I said it to me girl
And now me girl's my wife!
She's supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious

The Lonely Goatherd lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
High on a hill was a lonely goatherd
Loud was the voice of the lonely goatherd
Folks in a town that was quite remote heard
Lusty and clear from the goatherd's throat heard
O ho lay dee odl lee o, o ho lay dee odl ay
O ho lay dee odl lee o, lay dee odl lee o lay
A prince on the bridge of a castle moat heard
Men on a road with a load to tote heard
Ooh, all men in the midst of a table d'hote heard
Men drinking beer with the foam afloat heard
O ho lay dee odl lee o, o ho lay dee odl ay
O ho lay dee odl lee o, lay dee odl lee o lay
One little girl in the pale pink coat heard
She yodeled back to the lonely goatherd
Soon her mama with the gleaming gloat heard
What a duet for a girl and goatherd
Lay ee odl lay ee odl lay hoo hoo
Happy are they lay dee olay dee lee o
Soon the duet will become a trio
Odl lay ee, old lay ee
Odl lay ee, odl lay ee

Ding-Dong! The Witch Is Dead lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Let the joyous news be spread
Let the joyous news be spread
The wicked old witch at last is dead
Below, below, yo ho, let's open up and sing
And ring the bells out ding dong the merry oh
Sing it high
Let the joyous news be spread
The wicked old witch at last is dead
Below, below, yo ho, let's open up and sing
And ring the bells out ding dong the merry oh
Sing it high
Maybe lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Maybe far away, or maybe real near by.
He may be pouring her coffee,
She may be Straightning his tie.
Maybe in a house all hidden by a hill,
She's sittin' playin' Piano,
He's sittin' payin' a bill.
Betcha they're young.
Betcha they're smart,
Bet they collect things like ashtrays and art.
Betcha there good.
Why shouldn't they be?
Their one mistake was giving up me.
So maybe now it's time,
And maybe when I wake,
They'll be there calling me baby,
Maybe.
He may be pouring her coffee,
She may be Straightning his tie.
Maybe in a house all hidden by a hill,
She's sittin' playin' Piano,
He's sittin' payin' a bill.
Betcha they're young.
Betcha they're smart,
Bet they collect things like ashtrays and art.
Betcha there good.
Why shouldn't they be?
Their one mistake was giving up me.
So maybe now it's time,
And maybe when I wake,
They'll be there calling me baby,

Pure Imagination / Candy Man lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Come with me and you'll be in a world of pure imagination
Take a look and you'll see into your imagination.
We'll begin with a spin traveling in the world of my creation.
What we'll see will defy explanation.
If you want to view paradise
Simply look around and view it.
Anything you want to do it.
You can even eat the dishes
Who can take a sunrise
Sprinkle it with dew
Cover it in chocolate and a miracle or two
The Candy Man
The Candy Man can
The Candy Man can
'cause he mixes it with love
and makes the world taste good
Who can take a rainbow
Wrap it in a sigh
Soak it in the sun and make strawberry-lemon pie
The Candy Man
The Candy Man can
The Candy Man can 'cause he mixes it with love and makes the world taste good
The Candy man makes everything he bakes
Satisfying and delicious
Talk about your childhood wishes
You can even eat the dishes
Yes...
The Candy man makes everything he bakes
Satisfying and delicious
Talk about your childhood wishes
Wanna change the world?
There's nothing to it.
There is no life I know to compare with pure imagination.
Living there you'll be free if you truly wish to be.
And the world tastes good 'cause the Candy Man thinks it should...
Take a look and you'll see into your imagination.
We'll begin with a spin traveling in the world of my creation.
What we'll see will defy explanation.
If you want to view paradise
Simply look around and view it.
Anything you want to do it.
You can even eat the dishes
Who can take a sunrise
Sprinkle it with dew
Cover it in chocolate and a miracle or two
The Candy Man
The Candy Man can
The Candy Man can
'cause he mixes it with love
and makes the world taste good
Who can take a rainbow
Wrap it in a sigh
Soak it in the sun and make strawberry-lemon pie
The Candy Man
The Candy Man can
The Candy Man can 'cause he mixes it with love and makes the world taste good
The Candy man makes everything he bakes
Satisfying and delicious
Talk about your childhood wishes
You can even eat the dishes
Yes...
The Candy man makes everything he bakes
Satisfying and delicious
Talk about your childhood wishes
Wanna change the world?
There's nothing to it.
There is no life I know to compare with pure imagination.
Living there you'll be free if you truly wish to be.

Golden Ticket / I Want It Now lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
I never thought my life could be anything but catastrophe
But suddenly I begin to see a bit of good luck for me
Cause I've got a golden ticket
I've got a golden twinkle in my eye
I never had a chance to shine never a happy song to sing,
But suddenly half the world is mine what an amazing thing
Cause I've got a golden ticket.
I've got a golden sun up in the sky.
I never thought I'd see the day when I would face the world and say,
"Good morning. Look at the sun."
I never thought that I would be slap in the lap of luxury
Cause I have said it couldn't be done
But it can be done.
I never dreamed that I would climb over the moon in ecstasy,
But nevertheless it's there that I'm shortly about to be
Cause I've got a golden ticket
I've got a golden chance to make my way
And with the golden ticket it's a golden day.
I want a feast
I want a bean feast
Cream buns and doughnuts and fruitcake with no nuts so good you could go nuts.
Give to me now!
I want a ball
I want a party
Pink macaroons and a million balloons and performing baboons and
Give it to me now.
I want the world,
I want the whole world.
I want to lock it all up in my pocket
It's my bar of chocolate
Give it to me now!
I want a party with roomfuls of laughter
Ten thousand ton of ice cream
And if I don't get the things I am after
I'm going to scream!
I want the works,
I want the whole works!
Presents and prizes and sweets and surprises in all shapes and sizes,
And now!
Don't care how I want it now!
But suddenly I begin to see a bit of good luck for me
Cause I've got a golden ticket
I've got a golden twinkle in my eye
I never had a chance to shine never a happy song to sing,
But suddenly half the world is mine what an amazing thing
Cause I've got a golden ticket.
I've got a golden sun up in the sky.
I never thought I'd see the day when I would face the world and say,
"Good morning. Look at the sun."
I never thought that I would be slap in the lap of luxury
Cause I have said it couldn't be done
But it can be done.
I never dreamed that I would climb over the moon in ecstasy,
But nevertheless it's there that I'm shortly about to be
Cause I've got a golden ticket
I've got a golden chance to make my way
And with the golden ticket it's a golden day.
I want a feast
I want a bean feast
Cream buns and doughnuts and fruitcake with no nuts so good you could go nuts.
Give to me now!
I want a ball
I want a party
Pink macaroons and a million balloons and performing baboons and
Give it to me now.
I want the world,
I want the whole world.
I want to lock it all up in my pocket
It's my bar of chocolate
Give it to me now!
I want a party with roomfuls of laughter
Ten thousand ton of ice cream
And if I don't get the things I am after
I'm going to scream!
I want the works,
I want the whole works!
Presents and prizes and sweets and surprises in all shapes and sizes,
And now!
Don't care how I want it now!
Oompa Loompa lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Oompa loompa doompety doo
I've got a perfect puzzle for you
Oompa loompa doompety dee
If you are wise you'll listen to me
What do you get when you guzzle down sweets
Eating as much as an elephant eats
What are you at, getting terribly fat
What do you think will come of that
I don't like the look of it
Oompa loompa doompety da
If you're not greedy, you will go far
You will live in happiness too
Like the Oompa Loompa Doompety do

Oompa loompa doompeda dee
If you are wise you'll listen to me
Gum chewing's fine when it's once in a while
It stops you from smoking and brightens your smile
But it's repulsive, revolting and wrong
Chewing and chewing all day long
The way that a cow does

Given good manners you will go far
You will live in happiness too

Pampered and spoiled like a siamese cat

If you are wise you'll listen to me
What do you get from a glut of TV
A pain in the neck and an IQ of three
Why don't you try simply reading a book
Or could you just not bear to look
You'll get no

A Spoonful Of Sugar lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
In ev'ry job that must be done

you find the fun and snap!

In ev'ry task you undertake

It's very clear to see
That a...
Spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down
The medicine go down
The medicine go down
Just a spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down
In a most delightful way
A robin feathering his nest
Has very little time to rest
While gathering his
Bits of twine and twig
Though quite intent in his pursuit
He has a merry tune to toot
He knows a song
Will move the job along
For a...

Stay Awake lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Don't lie down upon your bed
While the moon drifts in the skies
Stay awake, don't close your eyes
Though the world is fast asleep
Though your pillow's soft and deep
You're not sleepy as you seem
Stay awake, don't nod and dream
Stay awake, don't nod and dream
Though the world is fast asleep
Though your pillow's soft and deep
You're not sleepy as you seem
Stay awake, don't nod and dream
Stay awake, don't nod and dream
While the moon drifts in the skies
Stay awake, don't close your eyes
Though the world is fast asleep
Though your pillow's soft and deep
You're not sleepy as you seem
Stay awake, don't nod and dream
Stay awake, don't nod and dream
Though the world is fast asleep
Though your pillow's soft and deep
You're not sleepy as you seem
Stay awake, don't nod and dream
Stay awake, don't nod and dream
Something Was Missing lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
I've made me a fortune
(That fortune made ten)
Been headlined
And profiled
Again and again
But something was missing
(I never quite knew)
That something was someone
But who?
My speeches are greeted
With thunderous acclaim
At two universities
Bearing my name
Yes, something was missing
Each timeI got through
That something was someone
But who?
Who could that someone be?
How could she make it known?
Who would need me for me?
Need me for me alone?
he world was my oyster
But where was the pearl?
Who dreamed I could find it
Yes something was missing
But dreams can come true
That something
Is no one
But you
Who would need me for me?
Need me for me alone
The world was my oyster
But where was the pearl?
Who'd dream I would find it
In one little girl?
Yes, something was missing
But dreams do come true
That something is no one.....but you.

You're Never Fully Dressed Without A Smile lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Hey, hobo man,
Hey, dapper dan,
You've both got your style,
But, brother, you're never fully dressed
Without a smile!
Your clothes may be beau brummelly
They stand out a mile,
But, brother, you're never fully dressed
Without a smile!
Who cares what they're wearing
On main street or saville row?
It's what you wear from ear to ear,
And not from head to toe,
That matters.
So, senator,
So, janitor,
So long for a while.
Remember you're
Never fully dressed,
Though you may wear your best.
You're never fully dressed
Without a smile
Smile!
Smile!
[Spoken:]
Smile, darn ya, smile!
Hey, dapper dan,
You've both got your style,

But, brother, you're never fully dressed
Without a smile!
Who cares what they're wearing
On main street or saville row?
It's what you wear from ear to ear,
And not from head to toe,
That matters.
So, senator,

So long for a while.
Remember you're
Never fully dressed,
Though you may wear your best.
You're never fully dressed
Without a smile

Over The Rainbow lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Somewhere, over the rainbow, way up high.
There's a land that I heard of
Once in a lullaby.
Somewhere, over the rainbow, skies are blue.
And the dreams that you dare to dream
Really do come true.
Someday I'll wish upon a star and
wake up where the clouds are far
Behind me.
Where troubles melt like lemon drops,
Away above the chimney tops.
That's where you'll find me.
Somewhere, over the rainbow, bluebirds fly.
Birds fly over the rainbow,
Why then - oh, why can't I?
Why then - oh, why can't I?
If happy little bluebirds fly beyond the rainbow,
Why, oh, why can't I?
There's a land that I heard of
Once in a lullaby.
Somewhere, over the rainbow, skies are blue.
And the dreams that you dare to dream
Really do come true.
Someday I'll wish upon a star and
wake up where the clouds are far
Behind me.
Where troubles melt like lemon drops,
Away above the chimney tops.
That's where you'll find me.
Somewhere, over the rainbow, bluebirds fly.
Birds fly over the rainbow,
Why then - oh, why can't I?
Why then - oh, why can't I?
If happy little bluebirds fly beyond the rainbow,
Why, oh, why can't I?
The Jitterbug lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Who's that hiding in the tree top?
It's that rascal, The Jitterbug!
Should you catch him buzzing 'round you,
Keep away from, The Jitterbug!
Oh! the bats and the bees and the breeze in the trees have a terrible, horrible buzz!
But the bats and the bees and the breeze in the trees couldn't do what The
Jitterbug does!
So be careful of that rascal,
Keep away from The Jitterbug!
The Jitterbug!
Oh! The Jitter! Oh The Bug!
Oh! The Jitterbug, Bug-a-bug, bug-a-bug, bug-a-boo.
In a twitter, in the throes, Oh the critter's
Got me dancing on a thousand toes,
Thar' she blows!
Oh! the bats and the bees and the breeze in the trees have a terrible, horrible buzz!
But the bats and the bees and the breeze in the trees couldn't do what The
Jitterbug does!
So be careful of that rascal,
Keep away from The Jitterbug!
It's that rascal, The Jitterbug!
Should you catch him buzzing 'round you,
Keep away from, The Jitterbug!
Oh! the bats and the bees and the breeze in the trees have a terrible, horrible buzz!
But the bats and the bees and the breeze in the trees couldn't do what The
Jitterbug does!
So be careful of that rascal,
Keep away from The Jitterbug!
The Jitterbug!
Oh! The Jitter! Oh The Bug!
Oh! The Jitterbug, Bug-a-bug, bug-a-bug, bug-a-boo.
In a twitter, in the throes, Oh the critter's
Got me dancing on a thousand toes,
Thar' she blows!
Oh! the bats and the bees and the breeze in the trees have a terrible, horrible buzz!
But the bats and the bees and the breeze in the trees couldn't do what The
Jitterbug does!
So be careful of that rascal,
Keep away from The Jitterbug!
Merry Old Land Of Oz lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Ha - ha - ha, Ho - ho - ho
And a couple of tra - la - las
That's how we laugh the day away,
In the Merry Old Land of Oz!
Bzz - bzz - bzz, Chirp - chirp - chirp
And a couple of La - di - das
That's how the crickets crick all day,
In the Merry Old Land of Oz!
We get up at twelve and start to work at one.
Take an hour for lunch and then at two we're done.
Jolly good fun!
Ha - ha - ha, Ho - ho - ho
And a couple of tra - la - las
That's how we laugh the day away,
In the Merry Old Land of Oz!
We get up at twelve and start to work at one.
Take an hour for lunch and then at two we're done.
Jolly good fun!
Ha - ha - ha, Ho - ho - ho
And a couple of tra - la - las
That's how we laugh the day away,
In the Merry Old Land of Oz!

I'm Walkin' lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
I'm walkin', yes indeed and I'm talkin'
About you and me, I'm hopin'
That you'll come back to me,
I'm lonely as I can be, I'm waitin'
For your company, I'm hopin'
That you'll come back to me
What you gonna do when the well runs dry?
You gonna run away and hide
I'm gonna run right by your side
For you pretty baby I'll even die
I'm walkin', yes indeed and I'm talkin'
About you and me, I'm hopin'
That you'll come back to me
Well, what you gonna do when the well runs dry?
You're gonna sit right down and cry
What you gonna do when I say goodbye
All you gonna do is dry your eye
I'm walkin', yes indeed and I'm talkin'
About you and me, I'm hopin'
That you'll come back to me
About you and me, I'm hopin'
That you'll come back to me,
I'm lonely as I can be, I'm waitin'
For your company, I'm hopin'
That you'll come back to me
What you gonna do when the well runs dry?
You gonna run away and hide
I'm gonna run right by your side
For you pretty baby I'll even die
I'm walkin', yes indeed and I'm talkin'
About you and me, I'm hopin'
That you'll come back to me
Well, what you gonna do when the well runs dry?
You're gonna sit right down and cry
What you gonna do when I say goodbye
All you gonna do is dry your eye
I'm walkin', yes indeed and I'm talkin'
About you and me, I'm hopin'
That you'll come back to me
Chattanooga Choo Choo lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
(Hi there Tex, what you say?)
Step aside partner, it's my day
bend an ear, and listen to my version
of a really solid Tennessee excursion
pardon me boys, is that the Chattanooga Choo-Choo?
(Yes, Yes, Track 29)
Hey would you give me a shine?
(Can you afford to board Chattanooga Choo-Choo?)
I got my fare
and just the travel to spare
you leave the Pennsylvania Station by a quarter to four
you read a magazine and then you're in Baltimore
dinner in a diner
nothing could be finer
and then to have a hammer in the Carolina
when you hear the whistle blowing into the bar
then you now the Tennessee is not very far
shove a all the coal in
gotta keep a rollin'
woo-woo Chattanooga there you are
there's gonna be
a certain party at the station
Satin and Lace (ooh)
I use to call funny face
(doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo)
she's gonna cry
until I promise to never ever roll,
so Chattanooga choo-choo
won't you choo choo me home
(Chattanooga Chattanooga)
get aboard
(Chattanooga Chattanooga)
Chattanooga choo choo
won't you choo-choo me home
Chattanooga choo choo
let's dance
Step aside partner, it's my day

Somewhere My Love lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Somewhere, my love there will be songs to sing
Although the snow covers the hope of spring
Somewhere a hill blossoms in green and gold
And there are dreams all that your heart can hold
Someday we'll meet again my love
Someday whenever the spring breaks through
You'll come to me out of the long ago
Warm as the wind, soft as the kiss of snow
Lara my own, think of me now and then
God speed my love till you are mine again
You'll come to me out of the long ago
Warm as the wind soft as the kiss of snow
Till then my sweet think of me now and then
God speed my love 'til you are mine again
Although the snow covers the hope of spring
Somewhere a hill blossoms in green and gold
And there are dreams all that your heart can hold
Someday we'll meet again my love
Someday whenever the spring breaks through
You'll come to me out of the long ago
Warm as the wind, soft as the kiss of snow
Lara my own, think of me now and then
God speed my love till you are mine again
You'll come to me out of the long ago
Warm as the wind soft as the kiss of snow
Till then my sweet think of me now and then
God speed my love 'til you are mine again
The Gypsy lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
In a quaint caravan
There's a lady they call The Gypsy
She can look in the future
And drive away all your fears
Everything will go right
If you only believe The Gypsy
She could tell at a glance
That my heart was so full of tears
She looked at my hand
and told me
My lover was always true
Then all that onces I knew, dear
Somebody else was kissing you
But I'll go there again
'Cause I want to believe
The Gypsy
That my lover is true
And will come back to me some day
She looked at my hand
and told me
My lover was always true
Then all that onces I knew, dear
Somebody else was kissing you
But I'll go there again
'Cause I got to believe
The Gypsy
That my lover is true
And will come back to me some day
That my lover is true
And will come back to me some day
If I Were A Bell lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Ask me how do I feel
now that we're cosy and clinging
Well sir, all I can say, is if I were a bell I'd be ringing!
From the moment we kissed tonight
That's the way I've just gotta behave
Boy, if I were a lamp I'd light
And If I were a banner I'd wave!
Ask me how do I feel, little me with my quiet upbringing
Well sir, all I can say is if gate I'd be swinging!
And if I were a watch I'd start popping my springs!
Or if I were a bell I'd go ding dong, ding dong ding!
Ask me how do I feel from this chemistry lesson I'm learning.
Well sir, all I can say is if I were a bridge I'd be burning!
Yes, I knew my moral would crack
From the wonderful way that you looked!
Boy, if I were a duck I'd quack!
Or if I were a goose I'd be cooked!
Ask me how do I feel,
now that we're fondly caressing
Well, if I were a salad I know I'd be splashing my dressing
Oh, If I were a season
I shortly be spring
Yes, or if I were a bell I'd go
ding dong, ding dong ding!
now that we're cosy and clinging
Well sir, all I can say, is if I were a bell I'd be ringing!
From the moment we kissed tonight
That's the way I've just gotta behave
Boy, if I were a lamp I'd light
And If I were a banner I'd wave!
Ask me how do I feel, little me with my quiet upbringing
Well sir, all I can say is if gate I'd be swinging!
And if I were a watch I'd start popping my springs!
Or if I were a bell I'd go ding dong, ding dong ding!
Ask me how do I feel from this chemistry lesson I'm learning.
Well sir, all I can say is if I were a bridge I'd be burning!
Yes, I knew my moral would crack
From the wonderful way that you looked!
Boy, if I were a duck I'd quack!
Or if I were a goose I'd be cooked!
Ask me how do I feel,
now that we're fondly caressing
Well, if I were a salad I know I'd be splashing my dressing
Oh, If I were a season
I shortly be spring
Yes, or if I were a bell I'd go
ding dong, ding dong ding!
Way Down Yonder In New Orleans lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Way down yonder in New Orleans
In the land of the dreamy scenes
It's a garden of Eden...you know what I mean
Creole babies with lovin' eyes
Softly whisper their tender sighs
Stop..ya bet your life you'll linger there...a little while
Stop....won't you give your lady fair...a little smile
It's the heaven right here on earth
All the beautiful queens
Way down yonder in New...Orleans
Stop....won't you give your lady fair...a little smile
Stop....give lady fair...a little smile
Oh!
It's the heaven right here on earth
All the beautiful queens,
Look out!
Way down yonder in New Orleans
In the land of the dreamy scenes
It's a garden of Eden...you know what I mean
Creole babies with lovin' eyes
Softly whisper their tender sighs
Stop..ya bet your life you'll linger there...a little while
Stop....won't you give your lady fair...a little smile
It's the heaven right here on earth
All the beautiful queens
Way down yonder in New...Orleans
Stop....won't you give your lady fair...a little smile
Stop....give lady fair...a little smile
Oh!
It's the heaven right here on earth
All the beautiful queens,
Look out!
Way down yonder in New Orleans
Tie A Yellow Ribbon Round The Old Oak Tree lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
I'm coming home I've done my time
And I have to know what is or isn't mine
If you received my letter
Telling you I'd soon be free
Then you'd know just what to do
If you still want me
If you still want me
Oh tie a yellow ribbon
'Round the old oak tree
It's been three long years
Do you still want me
If I don't see a yellow ribbon
'Round the old oak tree
I'll stay on the bus, forget about us
Put the blame on me
If I don't see a yellow ribbon
'Round the old oak tree
Bus driver please look for me
'Cause I couldn't bare to see what I might see
I'm really still in prison
And my love she holds the key
A simple yellow ribbon's all I need to set me free
I wrote and told her please
Oh tie a yellow ribbon
'Round the old oak tree
It's been three long years
Do you still want me
If I don't see a yellow ribbon
'Round the old oak tree
I'll stay on the bus, forget about us
Put the blame on me
If I don't see a yellow ribbon
'Round the old oak tree
Now the whole damn bus is cheering
And I can't believe I see
A hundred yellow ribbons
'Round the old, the old oak tree
Tie a ribbon 'round the old oak tree
Tie a ribbon 'round the old oak tree
Tie a ribbon 'round the old oak tree
Tie a ribbon 'round the old oak tree
Tie a ribbon 'round the old oak tree
Tie a ribbon 'round the old oak tree
Tie a ribbon 'round the old oak tree
Tie a ribbon 'round the old oak tree
And I have to know what is or isn't mine
If you received my letter
Telling you I'd soon be free
Then you'd know just what to do
If you still want me
If you still want me
Oh tie a yellow ribbon
'Round the old oak tree
It's been three long years
Do you still want me
If I don't see a yellow ribbon
'Round the old oak tree
I'll stay on the bus, forget about us
Put the blame on me
If I don't see a yellow ribbon
'Round the old oak tree
Bus driver please look for me
'Cause I couldn't bare to see what I might see
I'm really still in prison
And my love she holds the key
A simple yellow ribbon's all I need to set me free
I wrote and told her please
Oh tie a yellow ribbon
'Round the old oak tree
It's been three long years
Do you still want me
If I don't see a yellow ribbon
'Round the old oak tree
I'll stay on the bus, forget about us
Put the blame on me
If I don't see a yellow ribbon
'Round the old oak tree
Now the whole damn bus is cheering
And I can't believe I see
A hundred yellow ribbons
'Round the old, the old oak tree
Tie a ribbon 'round the old oak tree

There Is Always One More Time lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
If your whole life somehow
Wasn't much 'til now
And you've almost lost
Your will to live
No matter what you've been through
Long as there's breath in you
There is always one more time
If your dreams go bad
Every one that you've had
don't you think that your dreams
Can't come true
Because it's funny about dreams
Just strange as it seems
Becouse there is always one more time
Turnin' corners
Turnin' corners
Only a state of mind
Only a state of mind
Keeping your eyes closed
Keeping your eyes closed
Worse than being blind
Worse than being blind
If better a heart out there
If better a heart out there
Looking for someone to share
Looking for someone to share
I don't care if it's been
I don't care if it's been
Turned down time and time again
Turned down time and time again
And if we meet some day
And if we meet some day
Please don't walk away
No, no don't walk away
'Cause there is always always one more time
One more time
'Cause there is always one more time.
Wasn't much 'til now
And you've almost lost
Your will to live
No matter what you've been through
Long as there's breath in you
There is always one more time
If your dreams go bad
Every one that you've had
don't you think that your dreams
Can't come true
Because it's funny about dreams
Just strange as it seems
Becouse there is always one more time
Turnin' corners
Turnin' corners
Only a state of mind
Only a state of mind
Keeping your eyes closed
Keeping your eyes closed
Worse than being blind
Worse than being blind
If better a heart out there
If better a heart out there
Looking for someone to share
Looking for someone to share
I don't care if it's been
I don't care if it's been
Turned down time and time again
Turned down time and time again
And if we meet some day
And if we meet some day
Please don't walk away
No, no don't walk away
'Cause there is always always one more time
One more time
'Cause there is always one more time.
Speak Softly Love lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Speak softly love and hold me warm against your heart
I feel your words, the tender trembling moments start
We're in a world, our very own
Sharing a love that only few have ever known
Wine colored days warmed by the sun
Deep velvet nights when we are one
Speak softly love so no one hears us but the sky
The vows of love we make will last until we die
My life is yours and all because
You came into my world with love so softly, love
We're in a world, our very own
Sharing a love that only few have ever known
Wine colored days warmed by the sun
Deep velvet nights when we are one
Speak softly love so no one hears us but the sky
The vows of love we make will last until we die
My life is yours and all because
You came into my world with love so softly, love
I feel your words, the tender trembling moments start
We're in a world, our very own
Sharing a love that only few have ever known
Wine colored days warmed by the sun
Deep velvet nights when we are one
Speak softly love so no one hears us but the sky
The vows of love we make will last until we die
My life is yours and all because
You came into my world with love so softly, love
We're in a world, our very own
Sharing a love that only few have ever known
Wine colored days warmed by the sun
Deep velvet nights when we are one
Speak softly love so no one hears us but the sky
The vows of love we make will last until we die
My life is yours and all because
You came into my world with love so softly, love
Junco Partner lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Down the road came a Junco Partner
For he was loaded as can be
He was knocked out, knocked out loaded
He was a'wobblin' all over the street
Singing 6 months ain't no sentence
And one year ain't no time
I was born in Angola
Serving 14 to 99
Well I wish I had me $1 million dollars
Oh one million to call my own
I would raise meat and say, "grow for me baby"
I would raise me a tobacco farm
Well I wish I would have me a great deal of money
Yeah and mighty good things all over town
Now I ain't got no more money
All of my good friends are putting me down
So now I gotta pawn my rifle and pistol
Yeah I'm gonna pawn my watch and chain
I would have pawned my seat Gabriella
But the smart girl she wouldn't sign her name
Give me headstone when I die
Don't Fence Me In lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Well, give me land, lots of land under starry skies above
But don't fence me in
Let me ride through that wide open country that I love
Don't fence me in
Let me be by myself in the evenin' breeze
Listen to the murmur of the cottonwood trees
Send me off forever but I ask you please
Don't fence me in
Just turn me loose, let me straddle my old saddle
Underneath the western skies
On my cayuse, let me wander over yonder
Till I see the mountains rise
I want to ride to the ridge where the west commences
Gaze at the moon till I lose my senses
I don't like hobbles and I can't stand fences
Don't fence me in
[Instrumental break]
Just turn me loose, let me straddle my old saddle
Underneath the western skies
On my cayuse, let me wander over yonder
Till I see the mountains rise
I want to ride to the ridge where the west commences
Gaze at that ole moon until I lose my senses
I can't stand them hobbles and I don't care for fences
Don't fence me in
Oh no...don't you fence me in
But don't fence me in
Let me ride through that wide open country that I love
Don't fence me in
Let me be by myself in the evenin' breeze
Listen to the murmur of the cottonwood trees
Send me off forever but I ask you please
Don't fence me in
Just turn me loose, let me straddle my old saddle
Underneath the western skies
On my cayuse, let me wander over yonder
Till I see the mountains rise
I want to ride to the ridge where the west commences
Gaze at the moon till I lose my senses
I don't like hobbles and I can't stand fences
Don't fence me in
[Instrumental break]
Just turn me loose, let me straddle my old saddle
Underneath the western skies
On my cayuse, let me wander over yonder
Till I see the mountains rise
I want to ride to the ridge where the west commences
Gaze at that ole moon until I lose my senses
I can't stand them hobbles and I don't care for fences
Don't fence me in
Oh no...don't you fence me in
Don't Like Goodbyes lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Don't like good-byes, tears or sighs.
I'm not too good at leavin' time.
I got no taste for grievin' time. No, no - not me.
You've been my near ones, always my dear ones.
I never thought that I would find
Another love, a different kind, but it came to be.
Well, if you think I'm tellin' you lies,
Go try your luck and look into her eyes.
But remember, you must remember she's mine,
And my world overhead has a clear new shine.
Don't want to leave you, sorry to grieve you.
It's travelin' time and I must move on.
Found the girl to lean upon.
And If I could arrange it,
Would I care to change it?
Not me!
I'm not too good at leavin' time.
I got no taste for grievin' time. No, no - not me.
You've been my near ones, always my dear ones.
I never thought that I would find
Another love, a different kind, but it came to be.
Well, if you think I'm tellin' you lies,
Go try your luck and look into her eyes.
But remember, you must remember she's mine,
And my world overhead has a clear new shine.
Don't want to leave you, sorry to grieve you.
It's travelin' time and I must move on.
Found the girl to lean upon.
And If I could arrange it,
Would I care to change it?
Not me!
I'll Only Miss Her (When I Think Of Her) lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
I'll only miss her when I think of her
And I'll think of her all the time
Likely I'll spend my days hearing her turn of a phrase
Things I found hard to praise, right now, would seem sublime
And the truth is
I'll only miss her when some stranger laughs
'Cause it's still her laugh my heart hears
Maybe in time, I guess, the longing will grow the slightest bit less
And there will be moments, yes, when it disappears
I'll bet I forget her completely
In about a hundred years
The truth is
I'll only miss her when some stranger laughs
'Cause it's still her laugh my heart hears
Maybe in time, I guess, the longing will grow the slightest bit less
And there will be moments, yes, when it disappears
I'll bet I forget her completely
In about a hundred years.
And I'll think of her all the time
Likely I'll spend my days hearing her turn of a phrase
Things I found hard to praise, right now, would seem sublime
And the truth is
I'll only miss her when some stranger laughs
'Cause it's still her laugh my heart hears
Maybe in time, I guess, the longing will grow the slightest bit less
And there will be moments, yes, when it disappears
I'll bet I forget her completely
In about a hundred years
The truth is
I'll only miss her when some stranger laughs
'Cause it's still her laugh my heart hears
Maybe in time, I guess, the longing will grow the slightest bit less
And there will be moments, yes, when it disappears
I'll bet I forget her completely
In about a hundred years.
