Big Girls Don't Cry

Big girls don't cry (they don't cry)
Big girls don't cry (who said they don't cry)
My girl said good-bye (my oh my)
My girl didn't cry (I wonder why)

(Silly boy) Told my girl we had to break up
(Silly boy) Thought that she would call my bluff
(Silly boy) But she said to my surprise
Big girls don't cry

Big girls don't cry (they don't cry)
Big girls don't cry (who said they don't cry)

Baby I was cruel (I was cruel)
Baby I'm a fool (I'm such a fool)

(Silly girl) Shame on you your Mama said
(Silly girl) Shame on you, you cried in bed
(Silly girl) Shame on you, you told a lie
Big girls do cry

Big girls don't cry (they don't cry)
Big girls don't cry (that's just an alibi)

Big girls don't cry [repeat and fade]

Walk Like A Man

Walk like a man

Oh, how you tried to cut me down to size
Tellin' dirty lies to my friends
But my own father said "Give her up, don't bother
The world isn't comin' to an end"
(He said)

Walk like a man, talk like a man
Walk like a man my son
No woman's worth crawlin' on the earth
So walk like a man, my son

Bye bye baby, I don't-a mean maybe
Gonna get along somehow
Soon you'll be cryin' on account of all your lyin'
Oh yeah, just look who's laughin' now
(I'm gonna)

Walk like a man, fast as I can
Walk like a man from you
I'll tell the world "forget about it, girl"
And walk like a man from you

Dawn (Go Away)

Pretty as a midsummer's morn,
They call her Dawn.

Dawn,
Go away I'm no good for you.
Oh Dawn,
Stay with him, he'll be good to you.
Hang on,
Hang on to you.
Think,
What a big man he'll be.
Think,
Of the places you'll see.
Now think what the future would be with a poor boy like me.
Dawn go away,
Please go away.
Although I know,
I want you to stay.
Dawn go away,
Please go away.
Baby, don't cry.
It's better this way.
Ahh, ahh, ah.
Ohh-ohh-oh.

Dawn,
Go away back where you belong.
Girl we can't,
Change the places where we were born.
Before you say,
That you want me.
I want you to think,
What your family would say.
Think,
What your throwing away.
Now think what the future would be with a poor boy like me.
Meee-ee.

Dawn,
Go away I'm no good for you.
Dawn,
Go away I'm no good for you.

Ronnie

I'll go on living and keep on forgiving because
You were my first love
So very warm and tender the way you loved me
Hey girl can't you remember and want more of me
Ronnie Ronnie Ronnie how can you go

You were my first love

Rag Doll

(B. Gaudio - B. Crewe)

Ooh, oo-oo-oo-ooh (Ooh-oo-ooh)
Ooh-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-ooh
Ahh, ah-ah-ah-ahh (Rag doll, ooh)
Ooh-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-ooh

(Hand-me-down) When she was just a kid her clothes were hand-me-down
(Hand-me-down) They always laughed at her when she came into town
Called her rag doll, little rag doll
Such a pretty face should be dressed in lace

Ooh, oo-oo-oo-ooh (Ooh-oo-ooh)
Ooh-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-ooh

(Sad rag doll) I'd change her sad rags into glad rags if I could
(If I could) My folks won't let me 'cause they say that she's no good
She's a rag doll, such a rag doll
Though I love her so, I can't let her know

Ooh, oo-oo-oo-ooh (Ooh-oo-ooh)
Ooh-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-ooh
Ahh, ah-ah-ah-ahh (Rag doll, ooh)
I love you just the way you are

A-ahh, ah-ah-ah-ah ah-ahh (Rag doll, ooh)
Ooh-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-ooh

Save It For Me

(Bob Crewe and Bob Gaudio)

Ahhhh
Don't let your love go astray, save it for me.
Don't give your sweet kiss away, save it for me.
I know you're feelin' blue
'Cause I feel blue like you.
I'll be strong as long as you are and wait just as long as you...

Don't waste that look I adore, save it for me.
Just wait a little bit more, save it for me.
I know that you must cry,
Cry baby, so do I.
Just sit tight and leave on your light....

'Cause I'm comin' home to your arms,
Oh baby, I'm comin' home to your arms.

Ahhhhhhh, Save it for me.
Ahhhhhhh, Save it for me.

I know that you must cry,
Cry baby, so do I.
I'll be strong as you are
And wait just as long as you
Save it for me.

Save it for me
Oh, Ahhhhh...
Save it for me.
Oh, Ahhhhh...
Save it for me.
Oh, Ahhhhh...
Save it for me.
Oh, Ahhhhhh...........

Bye Bye Baby (Baby Goodbye)

[Spoken:]
If you hate me after what I say
Can't put it off any longer
I just gotta tell you anyway

Bye Bye Baby Goodbye
Bye Bye Baby don't make me cry

Your the one girl in town I'd marry
Girl I'd marry you now if I were free
I wish it could be
I could love you but why begin it
Cause there ain't any future in it
She's got me and I'm not free
So Bye Bye Baby Baby Goodbye
Bye Bye Baby don't make me cry

Guess I will never know you better
Wish I knew you before I met her
Gee how good you would be for me
Should have told you that I can't linger
There's a weddin' ring on my finger
She's got me and I'm not free
So Bye Bye Baby Baby Goodbye
Bye Bye Baby don't make me cry

Let's Hang On

There ain't no good in our goodbye-in'
True love takes a lot of tryin'
Oh, I'm cryin'

Let's hang on to what we got
Don't let go girl, we got a lot
Got a lot of love between us
Hang on, hang on, hang on
To what we got [doo-doo doo-doo doo-doo]

You say you're gonna go and call it quits
Gonna chuck it all and break our love to bits
(Breakin' up) I wish you never said it
(Breakin' up) No, no, we'll both regret it
That little chip 'o diamond on your hand
Ain't a fortune, baby, but you know it stands
(For your love) A love to try and bind us
(Such a love) We just can't leave behind us
Baby (don't you go) Baby (oh no no)
Baby (think it over and stay)

There isn't anything I wouldn't do
I'd go to any price to get in good with you
(Patch it up) Give me a second turn
(Patch it up) Don't cool off while I'm burnin'
You got me cryin', dyin' at your door
Don't shut me out, open your arms for
(Open up) Your arms I need to hold
(Open up) Your heart, oh girl, I told you
Baby (don't you go) Baby (oh no no)
Baby (think it over and stay)

Working My Way Back To You

I keep working my way back to you, babe
With a burning love inside
Yeah I'm working my way back to you babe
And a happiness that died
I let it get away
Keep paying every day
When you were so in love with me
I played around like I was free
Thought I could have my cake and eat it too
And how I cried over losing you

See I'm down and out
And I ain't about to go
Living my life without you
Hey every day, I made you cry
I'm begging girl, 'til the day I die

I'll keep working my way back to you, babe
With a burning love inside
Yeah I'm working my way back to you, babe
And a happiness that died
I let it get away
Keep paying every day

I used to love to make you cry
It made me feel like a man inside
If I had been a man in reality
Then you'd be here baby loving me

Now my nights are long
And only a lion could prowl
Girl, I guess we're too slow
Girl, but you're too proud
And you won't give in
But when I think about all I can't win

I'll keep working my way back to you, babe
With a burning love inside
Yeah I'm working my way back to you, babe
And a happiness that died
I let it get away
Keep paying every day

My heart is kind of low
I just gotta get back home

I'm really sorry
For acting that way
I'm really sorry
Ooh, little girl
I'm really sorry
For throwing away our love
Sweet little girl
I'm really sorry
For making you cry
I really need you
Don't you hear me talking to you
Really sorry
For telling you lies
For so long
Oh please

I'll keep working my way back to you, babe
With a burning love inside
Yeah I'm working my way back to you, babe
And a happiness that died

I'll keep working my way back to you, babe
With a burning love inside
Yeah I'm working my way back to you, babe
And a happiness that died

Working, working
I'm really working
Working baby
Can't you see me working...

Opus 17 (Don't You Worry 'Bout Me)

I can see,
There ain't no room for me.
You're only holdin' up your heart in sympathy.
If there's another man,
Then girl I understand.
Go on and take his hand,
And don't you worry 'bout me.
I'll be blue,
And I'll be cryin' too.
But girl you know I only want what's best for you.
What good is all my pride,
If our true love has died.
Go on and be his bride,
And don't you worry 'bout me.

I'll be strong,
I'll try to carry on.
Although you know it won't be easy when your gone.
I'll always think of you,
The tender love we knew.
But somehow I'll get through,
So don't you worry 'bout me.
Ooo-oo,
Baby.
Sweetie pie,
Before you say goodbye.
Remember if he ever leaves you high and dry.
Don't cry alone in pain,
Don't ever feel ashamed.
If you want me again,
Just don't you worry 'bout me.
I love you,
No matter what you do.
I'll spend my whole life waitin' if you want me too.
And if this is goodbye,
You know I'd rather die.
Than let you see me cry,
'Cause then you'd worry 'bout me.

I'll be strong,
I'll try to carry on.
Although you know it won't be easy when your gone.
I'll always think of you,
The tender love we knew.
But somehow I'll get through,
So don't you worry 'bout me.
I'll be strong,
I'll try to carry on.
Although you know it won't be easy when your gone.
I'll always think of you,
The tender love we knew.
But somehow I'll get through,
So don't you worry 'bout me

I've Got You Under My Skin

I've got you under my skin
I've got you deep in the heart of me
So deep in my heart, that you're really a part of me
I've got you under my skin

I've tried so not to give in
I've said to myself this affair never will go so well
But why should I try to resist, when baby will I know so well
That I've got you under my skin

I'd sacrifice anything come what might
For the sake of having you near
In spite of a warning voice that comes in the night
And repeats, repeats in my ear

Don't you know you fool, you never can win
Use your mentality, wake up to reality
But each time I do, just the thought of you
Makes me stop before I begin
'Cause I've got you under my skin

C'mon Marianne

Marianne, Marianne, Marianne, Marianne

Whoa-ho-ho here I am on my knees again
I'll do anything just to make it right
Say you'll understand, oh I know you can
C'mon Marianne


No matter what people say, it didn't happen that way
She was a passing fling and not a permanent thing
Say you'll understand, oh I know you can

C'mon Marianne (baby)
C'mon Marianne (baby)
C'mon Marianne (baby)
Say you can understand
My Marianne, Marianne, Marianne, Marianne

Well now your big brown eyes are all full of tears
From the bitterness of my cheatin' years
So I hang my head, wish that I was dead
C'mon Marianne (baby)
C'mon Marianne (baby)
C'mon Marianne (baby)
Say you can understand
My Marianne (baby)
C'mon Marianne (baby)
C'mon Marianne (baby)

Marianne, Marianne, Marianne, Marianne

Can't Take My Eyes Off Of You

You're just too good to be true.
Can't take my eyes off you.
You'd be like heaven to touch.
I wanna hold you so much.
At long last love has arrived.
And I thank God I'm alive.
You're just too good to be true.
Can't take my eyes off you.

Pardon the way that I stare.
There's nothing else to compare.
The sight of you leaves me weak.
There are no words left to speak.
But if you feel like I feel.
Please let me know that it's real.
You're just too good to be true.
Can't take my eyes off you.

I love you baby, and if it's quite all right,
I need you baby to warm the lonely night.
I love you baby.
Trust in me when I say:
Oh pretty baby, don't bring me down, I pray.
Oh pretty baby, now that I found you. Stay.

And let me love you, baby. Let me love you ...

I love you baby, and if it's quite allright,
I need you baby to warm the lonely night.
I love you baby.
Trust in me when I say:
Oh pretty baby, don't bring me down, I pray.
Oh pretty baby, now that I found you. Stay.

Oh pretty baby. Trust in me when I say: Oh pretty baby ...

My Eyes Adored You

[Chorus:]
My eyes adored ya
Though I never laid a hand on you
My eyes adored ya
Like a million miles away from me
You couldn't see how I adored ya
So close, so close and yet so far

Carried your books from school
Playin' "make-believe you're married to me"
You were fifth-grade, I was sixth
When we came to be
Walkin' home every day over Barnegat Bridge and Bay
Till we grew into the me and you
Went our separate ways

[Chorus]

Headed for city lights
Climbed the ladder up to fortune and fame
I worked my fingers to the bone
Made myself a name
Funny I seemed to find
That no matter how the years unwind
Still I reminisce 'bout the girl I miss
And the love I left behind

[Chorus]

(My eyes adored ya)
All my life I will remember
(Though I never laid a hand on you)
How warm and tender we were way back then, whoa, whoa, baby
(Like a million miles away from me
you couldn't see how I adored ya)
Oh, the feeling, sad regrets
(So close, so close and yet so far)
I know I won't ever forget ya, my childhood friend

(My eyes adored ya)
(Though I never laid a hand on you)
(My eyes adored ya)
(Like a million miles away from me
you couldn't see how I adored ya)

[Fade]
So close, so close and yet so far

Swearin' To God

Swearin' to god
There's no one else on earth I'd rather be
Mmmmmm, Swearin' to god
You made me see, so I believed in you
Oh, you've been fillin' my cup
Til' I'm runnin' over with joy
From you heaven sent love
Just touch me again
I'm king of all men and reigning from above

Swearin' to god (swearin' to god)
Your mistress of the world and all I am
(Don't tell the angels)
Swearin' to god (swearin' to god)
Your where I won in paradise began
No one gets me up there like you can
But girl, you know I'm only human
And I'm swearin' to god (swearin' to god)
So glad you've givin' me, you

(I was known for you, baby)
Girl ain't you glad we made it
(Made to give my heart and soul to you, baby)
I'm so very glad you gave it
(Hey, baby were together)
Try livin' on forever as long
As long as we live (as we live)

Swearin' to god (Swearin' to god)
I want to dedicate my life to loving you
(Don't tell the angels)
Well, I'm swearin' to god (swearin' to god)
I cross my heart and hope to die, Oh, I do
Just call me your one woman lover
I can't even look at another
I'm swearin' to god (swearin' to god)
So glad I'm livin'
I'm swearin' to god (swearin' to god)
For all he's givin' me
Swearin' to god (swearin' to god)
So glad he's givin' me you
Well, swearin' to god (swearin' to god)
Look what he's givin' me (swearin' to god)
More than the world can see (swearin' to god)
He's givin' me you, oh
(I love you)

December, 1963 (Oh, What A Night)

Oh, what a night, late December back in '63
What a very special time for me
As I remember what a night

Oh what a night
You know I didn't even know her name
But I was never gonna be the same
What a lady, what a night

Oh, I got a funny feeling when she walked in the room
And I, as I recall it ended much too soon

Oh what a night
Hypnotizing, mesmerizing me
She was everything I dreamed she'd be
Sweet surrender, what a night

I felt the rush like a rolling bolt of thunder
Spinning my head around and taking my body under
Oh what a night

Oh, I got a funny feeling when she walked in the room
And I, as I recall it ended much too soon
Oh what a night
Why'd it take so long to see the light
Seemed so wrong, but now it seems so right
What a lady, what a night

I felt the rush like a rolling bolt of thunder
Straining my head around and taking my body under
Oh what a night, Doo dit doo dit dit doo dit doo dit dit
Oh what a night, Doo dit doo dit dit doo dit doo dit dit
Oh what a night, Doo dit doo dit dit doo dit doo dit dit
Oh what a night, Doo dit doo dit dit doo dit doo dit dit
Oh what a night, Doo dit doo dit dit doo dit doo dit dit
Oh what a night, Doo dit doo dit dit doo dit doo dit dit
Oh what a night, Doo dit doo dit dit doo dit doo dit dit
Oh what a night, Doo dit doo dit dit doo dit doo dit dit
Oh what a night, Doo dit doo dit dit doo dit doo dit dit

Grease

I solve my problems and I see the light
We got a lovin' thing, we gotta feed it right
There ain't no danger we can go to far
We start believin' now that we can be who we are
Grease is the word

They think our love is just a growing pain
Why don't they understand, it's just a crying shame
Their lips are lying only real is real
We stop the fight right now, we got to be what feel
Grease is the word
(Greese is the word, is the word that you heard)
It's got a groove, it's got a meaning
Grease is the time, is the place, is the motion
Grease is the way we are feeling

We take the pressure and we throw away
Conventionalitly belongs to yesterday
There is a chance that we can make it so far
We start believing now
That we can be who we are
Grease is the word
(Greese is the word, is the word that you heard)
It's got a groove, it's got a meaning
Grease is the time, is the place, is the motion
Now, grease is the way we are feeling

This is the life of illusion
Wrapped up in trouble (trouble), laced with confusion
(What are we doing here)

We take the pressure and we throw away
Conventionality belongs to yesterday
There is a chance that we can make it so far
We start believing now that we can be who we are
Grease is the word
(Greese is the word, is the word that you heard)
It's got a groove, it's got a meaning
Grease is the time, is the place is the motion
Now grease is the way we are feeling

Grease is the word, is the word that you heard
It's got groove it's got a meaning
(Got a groove, got a meaning)
Grease is the time, is the place is the motion
Now grease is the way we are feeling

Grease is the word
Is the word
Is the word
Is the word
