Heartbreak Hotel
Well since my baby left me
Well I've found a new place to dwell
Well it's down at the end of Lonely Street
That's Heartbreak Hotel where I'll be
I'll be just so lonely baby,
Well I'm so lonely,
I'll be so lonely I could die.
* And although it's always crowded,
You still can find some room.
For broken hearted lovers
To cry there in the gloom.
** They'll be just so lonely
They'll be just so lonely, baby, well they're so lonely
Well they're be so lonely they could die.
Now, the bell hop's tears keep flowin',
And the desk clerk's dressed in black.
Well they've been so long on Lonely Street
They never, never will go back.
** Repeat
Well now, if your baby leaves you,
You've got a tale to tell.
Well just take a walk down Lonely Street
To Heartbreak Hotel.
Where you will be, you'll be so lonely baby,
Well you'll be lonely,
You'll be so lonely you could die.
Don't Be Cruel
You know I can be found, sitting home all alone
If you can't come around, at least please telephone
Don't be cruel to a heart that's true
Baby, if I made you mad for something I might have said
Please, let's forget my past, the future looks bright ahead
Don't be cruel to a heart that's true
I don't want no other love
A-Baby it's still you I'm thinking of
Mmmmm, don't stop thinking of me, don't make me feel this way
Come on over here and love me, you know what I want you to say
Don't be cruel to a heart that's true
Why should we be apart?
I really love you baby, cross my heart
Let's walk up to the preacher and let us say "I do"
And then you'll know you'll have me, and I'll know that I'll have you
Don't be cruel to a heart that's true
I don't want no other love
A-baby it's still you I'm thinking of
A-Don't be cruel to a heart that's true
Don't be cruel to a heart that's true
I don't want no other love
A-Baby it's still you I'm thinking of

Are You Lonesome Tonight?
Are you lonesome tonight?
Do you miss me tonight?
Are you sorry we drifted apart?
Does your memory stray to a bright summer day
When I kissed you and called you sweetheart?
Do the chairs in your parlour seem empty and bare?
Do you gaze at your doorstep and picture me there?
Is your heart filled with pain?
Shall I come back again?
Tell me dear, are you lonesome tonight?
(Spoken)
I wonder if you're lonesome tonight
You know someome said that the world's a stage
And each must play a part
Fate had me playing in love with you as my sweetheart
Act One was when we met
I loved you at first glance
You read your lines so cleverly and never missed a cue
Then came Act Two
You seemed to change - you acted strange
And why, I've never known
Honey you lied when you said you loved me
And I had no cause to doubt you
But I'd rather go on hearing your lies
Than to go on living without you
Now the stage is bare and I'm standing there
With emptiness all around
And if you won't come back to me
Then they can bring the curtain down
Is your heart filled with pain?
Shall I come back again?
Tell me, dear, are you lonesome tonight?
Wooden Heart (Muss i denn)
Can’t you see
I love you?
Please don’t break my heart in two
That’s not hard to do
‘Cause I don’t have a wooden heart
And if you say goodbye
Then I know that I would cry
Maybe I would die
‘Cause I don’t have a wooden heart
There’s no strings upon this love of mine
It was always you from the start
Treat me nice
Treat me good
Treat me like you really should
‘Cause I’m not made of wood
And I don’t have a wooden heart
* Muss i denn, muss i denn
Zum Stadtele hinaus
Stadtele hinaus
Und du, mein Schatz, bleibst hier?
* Repeat
There’s no strings upon this love of mine
It was always you from the start
Sei mir gut
Sei mir gut
Sei mir wie du wirklich sollst
Wie du wirklich sollst
‘Cause I don’t have a wooden heart
Surrender
When we kiss my heart's on fire
Burning with a strange desire.
And I know each time I kiss you
That your heart's on fire too.
So my darling please surrender
All your love so warm and tender
Let me hold you in my arms dear
While the moon shines bright above
All the stars would tell the story
Of our love and all its glory.
Let us take this night of magic
And make it a night of love.
Won't you please surrender to me
Your lips, your arms, your heart, dear
Be mine forever
Be mine tonight.
(Marie's The Name) His Latest Flame
A very old friend came by today
'Cos he was telling ev'ryone in town

He talked and talked and I heard him say
That she had the longest blackest hair
The prettiest green eyes anywhere
And Marie's the name of his latest flame

Crying In The Chapel
You saw me crying in the chapel
The tears I shed were tears of joy
I know the meaning of contentment
Now I'm happy with the Lord
Just a plain and simple chapel
Where humble people go to pray
I pray the Lord that I'll grow stronger
As I live from day to day
I've searched (I've searched) and I've searched (I've searched)
But I couldn't find
No way on earth to gain peace of mind
Now I'm happy in the chapel
Where people are of one accord (one accord)
Yes we gather in the chapel
Just to sing and praise the Lord
You'll search (you'll search) and you'll search (you'll search)
But you'll never find
No way on earth to gain peace of mind
Take your troubles to the chapel
Get down on your knees and pray (knees and pray)
Then your burdens will be lighter
And you'll surely find the way
(And you'll surely find the way)
In The Ghetto
As the snow flies, on a cold and grey Chicago mornin'
A poor little baby child is born
In the ghetto
And his mama cries
'Cause if there's one thing that she don't need
It's another hungry mouth to feed
In the ghetto
People, don't you understand
The child needs a helping hand
Or he'll grow to be an angry young man some day
Take a look at you and me,
Are we too blind to see,
Or do we simply turn our heads and look the other way?
Well the world turns
And a hungry little boy with the runny nose
Plays in the street as the cold wind blows
In the ghetto
And his hunger burns
So he starts to roam the streets at night
And he learns how to steal
And he learns how to fight
In the ghetto
Then one night in desperation
The young man breaks away
He buys a gun, steals a car, tries to run,
But he don't get far
And his mama cries
As a crowd gathers round an angry young man
Face down in the street with a gun in his hand
In the ghetto
And as her young man dies,
On a cold and grey Chicago mornin'
Another little baby child is born
In the ghetto
And his mama cries
In the ghetto
In the ghetto
Suspicious Minds
* We're caught in a trap, I can't walk out
Because I love you too much, baby.
Why can't you see, what you're doing to me,
When you don't believe a word I say?
** We can't go on together, with suspicious minds
And we can't build our dreams, on suspicious minds.
So if an old friend I know, drops by to say hello,
Would I still see suspicion in your eyes?
Here we go again, asking where I’ve been.
You can't see the tears are real I'm crying.
** Repeat
Oh, let our love survive,
Or dry the tears from your eyes.
Let's don't let a good thing die when honey,
You know I’ve never lied to you; Mmm, yeah, yeah!
* Repeat
*** Doncha know I'm caught in a trap, I can't walk out
Because I love you too much, baby.
**** Repeat (another 6 times!)
The Wonder Of You

When everything I do is wrong
You give me hope and consolation
You give me strength to carry on
And you're always there
To lend a hand
In everything I do
That's the wonder, the wonder of you
(The wonder of you)
And when you smile the world is brighter
You touch my hand and I’m a king
Your kiss to me is worth a fortune
Your love for me is everything

You love me as you do
That's the wonder, the wonder of you
Play it James. Take it!
