1. CAROLINA COUNTY BALL

Well just imagine my surprise to be there
If you touched me with a feather I’d fall
I guess that you could say we finally made it
We played the Carolina County Ball

We had the ladies all in line to see us
I must have promised twenty-seven I’d call
We thought the sun was never gonna stop shining
On the Carolina County Ball

We played it hot, hard and nasty, yeah
At the Carolina County Ball
And we sang, oooooh
On a boogie woogie Friday night, oooooh
When you got it sailing really wailing
It's all right, oh all right

All right, hey hey

Well just imagine my surprise to be there
If you touched me with a feather I'd fall
We thought the sun was never gonna stop shining
Down on the Carolina County Ball

We played it hot, and hard, nasty, hey
At the Carolina County Ball
And we sang, yeah, oooooh
On a boogie woogie Friday night, it's all right
Oooooh
When you got it sailing, really wailing, it's all right
All right
Oh yeah, hey

Hey, Doooo
On a boogie woogie Friday night
Doooo
Say, everything got to be all right
Doooo
It's a boogie boogie Friday night, hey
Doooo
When you got it sailing, really wailing
It's all right, yeah, go ahead

(Doooo Doooo Doooo Doooo)

Oh, Doooo
On the boogie woogie Friday night
Doooo
Say, everything got to be oh-so-right
Doooo
It's a boogie boogie Friday night, oh yeah
Doooo
When you got it sailing, really wailing
Hypnotizing, tantalizing
Carolina County Ball and it's all right, ooh

2. L.A. 59

It's thinking of you
That's getting me back to the road again
Hey big train you're eating up the ground

Thunder and rain
Pushing the train that I'm on again
Got to get me back to L.A. 59

Oh, remember it well
And oh, could I tell you about it all
But you know about heaven so Lord I'm going
To leave it there

Now the ladies are good
But nobody could be as good as you are
Oh, get me back to L.A. 59

And it's hello, hello sunshine
It's a good day in L.A. it's all right, yeah
Oh, hello, hello, sunshine
My, good day in L.A. 59

All right

Thunder and rain
Pushing the train that I'm on again
Get me back to L.A. 59

Hello, hello, sunshine, ooh ooh ooh
A good day, L.A., all right

And it's a-hello, hello sunshine, oh my sunshine
Well, it's a good day in L.A., it's all right, right
ooh ooh

Gotta talk about it
Hello, hello, sunshine
Oh yes, yes, such a good day in L.A., it's all right
Get me back, a singing
Hello, hello, sunshine, shine on me
It’s such a good day in L.A., it's all right, right right yeah

I say it’s hello, hello, sunshine, my close friend
Such a good day in L.A., it's ah all right right

I say it’s hello, hello, sunshine, get me back, take me back
Such a good day in L.A.

3. AIN’T IT ALL AMUSING

Baby if you flatter me, you might get somewhere
But I ain't gonna flatter you 'cause I don't really care
Ain't it all, ain't it all amusing

Now, now maybe if you get the sign, I might be a man
Baby you forgot the time, I'll do the best I can
Ain't it all, ain't it all, ain't it all amusing
Well, ain't it all, right, right, ain't it all amusing

Make me laugh.….

Hey, Jack and Jill went up the hill
To fetch a pail of water
Jill fell down and broke her crown
And that's the way it oughta.....
Now ain't it all now, all now, Oh, ain't it all amusing, hey
I saai, ain't it all right, ain't it all amusing

Ooh, oh yeah

Oh, Baby if you flatter me, you might get somewhere
But I ain't gonna flatter you, no, 'cause I don't really care
Ain't it all, ain't it all amusing
Ha-ha
Well, ain't it all right, right, ain't it all amusing
Ain’t it all amusing

4. HAPPY

Very very happy that you're so happy
Very very happy for you
Looking around every corner
I'm happy to see that you're happy

Special situation, pleasant demonstration
'Till the cat rolled out of the bag
You let me get my hopes too high
But now you're happy

Crazy kind of feeling, hanging from the ceiling
With a bag tied over my head
You won't let the sun shine in
But now you're

Very very happy that you're so happy
Very very happy for you
Looking around every corner
Lord, I'm glad you're happy

Too much aggravation, time is kind of wasting
Got to get while I'm still alive
You're never gonna stop me now
But Lord you're

5. ANNIE NEW ORLEANS

Aggravating Annie you're getting on my fanny
And I just can't cope anymore
When it gets down to fundamentals
You're a bit confusing

You've got wrinkles on your face
But they seem to be in place
So I wonder well I wonder
Are you leading the young boy on
Annie New Orleans

You're a hard core woman, a red necked woman
A good old girl from the South
With a negative way of speaking
But you're sentimental, yeah

We never speak of life, but you want to be my wife
And I wonder, well I wonder
Are you leading the young boy on
Annie New Orleans

Well didn't think I heard you at all
I was starting to fall
Back it up and try it again
I ain't letting you win, no way, all right

Woo aggravating Annie you're on my fanny
And I can't cope anymore
When it gets down to fundamentals
Lady, you're confusing

Well, you've got some wrinkles on your face
But they're all in place
So I wonder, I just wonder
Well are you leading the young boy on
Annie New Orleans
Hey, Annie New Orleans
Now now, Annie New Orleans
Hey

6. ROCKING CHAIR ROCK ‘N’ ROLL BLUES

How do you whisper out loud
Be all alone in a crowd
Well.....

How do you manage to fly
Breathe like the wind when you sigh
Sun, burning like fire
She's not feeling the sun, look at her run

Looks like it's starting to rain
Can't quite decide who's to blame
And how do you manage to fly
Breathe like the wind when you sigh
Sun, burning like fire
She's not feeling the sun, look at her run

And it looks like it's starting to rain
Can't quite decide who's to blame
Well.....hey, hey, all right

Mama told me so, son you're getting slow
Find a girl to make your own
Women treat you bad every one you had
Your legs are long but you ain't grown
No no, back off, Mama, I'm just learning, and how
Got to help me light the fuse
I got the rocking chair rock 'n' roll blues
Yeah

Daddy told me no, take it kind of slow
Get your fill of living alone
Women treat you cool, Lord you're such a fool
Your legs are long but you ain't grown
Hey, back off, Mama, I'm just learning, learning how
Help me light the fuse
I got the rocking chair rock 'n' roll blues now

All right, yeah yeah yeah,hey

Oh, got to back off, Mama, I'm just learning and how
Got to help me light the fuse
I got the rocking chair rock 'n' roll blues, yeah

Oh, now now
Oooh ooh, hey, help me

7. RAINBOW

Lady pick your feet up
Come and lay beside me
Show me things I've never known before
Seven days of wonder
Come and pray beside me

I guess I'm through believing
No one's waiting for me
I think I woke up living on my dreams
You black eyed husky woman
Come and lay beside me
Black eyed husky woman
Come and stay beside me

She ain't just another rainbow
Silver lining in the sky
She ain't just another rainbow

Adam and the Devil got me thinking about women
So I walked right up to her
Adam and the Devil got me thinking about women
So I talked right up to her

I said, “I ain't got no time to waste,
So do the things you're told”, yeah
Give me seven days of wonder
Come and stay beside me

Adam and the Devil got me thinking about women
So I walked right up to her
Adam and the Devil got me thinking about women
So I talked right up to her

And I said, “I ain't got no time to waste,
So do things you're told”, yeah
Seven days of wonder
Come and stay beside me

She ain't just another rainbow
Silver lining in the sky
She ain't just another rainbow
Not the same as you and I

She ain't just another rainbow
Silver lining in the sky
She ain't just another rainbow
Not the same as you and I

She ain't just another rainbow
Silver lining in the sky
She ain't just another rainbow

8. DO THE SAME THING

Crazy little woman go down, go down, go down, go down

Do the same thing

Hey little mama don't fall, fall, fall, fall
