2.Fell To Pieces

Out with my true love on a holiday
She took to pass
The time away
Under an umbrella, we pass the day
Like two robins under the cable
One for tomorrow, dedicated to you
One for another and that may do
Well after we cried
We thought we had died
We both fell to pieces
We both fell to pieces
We both fell to pieces
Out in the pasture
I lost my shoe
You dropped your bonnet
Your petticoat too
Got caught in the rain
But we did not care
So and on so and on so and on
One for tomorrow, dedicated to you
One for another and that may do
Well after we cried
We thought we had died
We both fell to pieces
We both fell to pieces
We both fell to pieces
Out with my true love on a holiday
She took to pass
The time away
Under an umbrella, we pass the day
Like two robins under the cable
One for tomorrow, dedicated to you
One for another and that may do
Well after we cried
We thought we had died
We both fell to pieces
We both fell to pieces
We both fell to pieces


3.If You Were Mine

If you were mine
Id be a ruler of kings
And if you were mine,
Oh i could do such wonderful things
Id sing to the stars
Stop where you are
Light up my lover's way
And every star above you, obey
If you were mine
Id live for your love alone
To kneel at your shrine
Oh, i would give all that i own
Even my heart, even my life
Well, i turn it all to you
Think i was lucky too, if you were mine
If you were mine
Id live for your love alone
To kneel at your shrine
Oh, i would give all that i own
Even my heart, even my life
Well, i turn it all to you
Think i was lucky too, if you were mine


4.I Raise Hell

I raise hell
Every night with all my friends from town
I drive in
To their house, we put on our volley gowns
And i raise hell
Every day
Way out here all alone
No one knows those things i do
Dancing on all of those
Bones
Sheep have all gone from the meadow
The sheep have all gone from the forest
Wasps are gone from the wallow
Theres nothing left but the cold
And i raise hell
Every day
Way out here all alone
No one knows those things i do
Dancing on all of those
Bones
I raise hell
Every day
Way out here all alone
No one knows those things i do
Dancing on all of those
Bones


5.La Grippe

There's a flu bug getting passed around
And it's spreading like fire through the town
There's a virus holing up inside us
Everyone that i know is coming down
There's an asian influenza
Infecting us all by the score
And it's turning into pneumonia
We must go out once more
There's a fool moon howling at the night
And it's bark is much worse than it's bite
So we must go out and dance around
Yes we must go tonight
So the doctors came on the evening train
With their flasks and their caskets and vials
Mass psychosis was their diagnosis (yes)
So we all cashed our checks and went wild
There's a fool moon howling at the night
And it's bark is much worse than it's bite
So we must go out and dance around
Yes we must go tonight
La grippe!, salsa!


6.Pallin' With Al

All the birds up in the trees have got a different song to sing
And as birds learned now they've learned that swing
They've been pallin' with al (me too)
Down below at the candy shop, theyre still workin at that same
old chore
But the stuff heres sweeter than it was before
You know why people,
Pallin with al who's that man who's got that sentemental swing
Plays that mess just like it doesn't mean a thing
Gather round you all and watch him
Watch him pluck those strings
People, when he gets that right hand pumpin'
All those kiddies got to start buck jumpin'
Listen now and dont forget
If you go for that solid jive
You can always keep the dream alive
Be bop a doo bop a bee ba doo way

9.St Louis Cemetary Blues

I was going downtown
Just the other day to meet my mates
They said i'll meet you down
Down in that mean old burying ground
I can shack my rattle
Rattle my bones
Just don't lay down before you're done
You can rag momma rag
You can't help it if it's not your bag
Down in the st.louis cemetary
Got the st. louis cemetary blues
We shall walk through the valley
Walk through the valley soon
We shall talk with the spirits
Talk with the spirits soon
Even jesus himself shall be our leader
And you can rag momma rag
You can't help it if it's not your bag
Down at the st. loius cemetary
Got the st. louis cemetary blues
