East side, west side,
all around the town
The Pavilion's on the north side
City Hall is still downtown.

Boys and girls together,

Tripped the Light Fantastic
On the streets of Fayetteville!

SONG OF THE WEEK 8-27-07

GILLIGAN’S ISLAND

With apologies to: George Wyle and

Sherwood Shwartz

Just sit right back and you'll hear a tale,
A tale of a fishing trip
That started from this tropic port
Aboard this tiny ship.

The mate was a mighty sailing man,
The skipper brave and sure.
Five passengers set sail that day
For a big fishing tour, a big fishing hour tour.

The weather started getting rough,
The tiny ship was tossed,
If not for the courage of the fearless crew
The minnow would be lost, the minnow would be lost.

The ship's aground on the shore of this uncharted desert isle
With Gilligan,
The Skipper too,
The millionaire and his wife,
The movie star
The professor and Mary Ann,
Here on Gilligan’s Isle.

SONG OF THE WEEK 8-20-07

-artist: Nat King Cole
-peakBillboard position # 1 for 8 weeks in 1950
-words and music by Jay Livingston and Ray Evans
-academy award winner from the film Captain Carey, U S A starring Alan Ladd

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?

SONG OF THE WEEK 8-13-07

BALLAD OF   

Let me tell the story, I can tell it all
About the mountain boy who ran illegal alcohol.
His daddy made the whiskey, son, he drove the load
When his engine roared, they called the highway Thunder Road.

Son, his Daddy told him, make this run your last
The tank is filled with hundred-proof, you’re all tuned up and gassed.
Now, don’t take any chances, if you can’t get through
I’d rather have you back again than all that mountain dew.

(CHORUS)
And there was thunder, thunder over Thunder Road.
Thunder was his engine, and white lightning was his load.
There was moonshine, moonshine to quench the Devil’s thirst.
The law they swore they'd get him, but the Devil got him first.

The law they swore they'd get him, but the Devil got him first.

16 Tons

by - Tennessee Ernie Ford

You load sixteen tons, what do ya get?
Another day older and deeper in debt.
Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go,
I owe my soul to the company store.

I was born one mornin' when the sun didn't shine
I picked up my shovel and I walked to the mine
I loaded sixteen tons of number 9 coal
And the store boss said "Well, a-bless my soul"

You load sixteen tons, what do ya get?
Another day older and deeper in debt
Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go,
I owe my soul to the company store.

FUN, FUN, FUN!

By the Beach Boys (1964)

Well she got her daddy’s car
And she cruised through the hamburger stand now.
Seems she forgot all about the library
Like she told her old man now.
And with the radio blasting
Goes cruising just as fast as she can now.

And shell have fun fun fun

Well you knew all along
That your dad was gettin wise to you now.
And since he took your set of keys
Youve been thinking that your fun is all through now.

But you can come along with me

And well have fun fun fun now that daddy took the t-bird away!

And well have fun fun fun now that daddy took the t-bird away!

-peak billboard position # 6 in 1963
-words by charles tobias and music by hans carste

Roll out those lazy, hazy, crazy days of summer
Those days of soda and pretzels and beer
Roll out those lazy, hazy, crazy days of summer
Dust off the sun and moon and sing a song of cheer

Dont hafta tell a girl and fella about a drive-in
Or some romantic moon it seems
Right from the moment that those lovers start arrivin
Youll see more kissin in the cars than on the screen

Roll out those lazy, hazy, crazy days of summer
Those days of soda and pretzels and beer
Roll out those lazy, hazy, crazy days of summer
Youll wish that summer could always be here

Youll wish that summer could always be here
Youll wish that summer could always be here

To the tune of Round and Round

With apologies to Perry Como

Rotary wheel, it goes around, and round, 
As it skims along with a happy sound,
As it goes, along the ground, ground, ground,
Till it leads you to our Rotary Club!

In the night you see the oval moon,
Going round and round in tune.
And the ball of sun in the day,
Makes a Rotary member wanna say:

Rotary wheel, it goes around, and round, 
As it skims along with a happy sound,
As it goes, along the ground, ground, ground,
Till it leads you to our Rotary Club!

Ring Of Fire
By Johnny Cash

Love is a burning thing
and it makes a firery ring
bound by wild desire
I fell in to a ring of fire...

I went down,down,down

And it burns,burns,burns
the ring of fire
the ring of fire.

As sung by Elvis Presley in

Double Trouble

Old MacDonald had a farm

 Ee ii ee ii oh.

 Chicken fricassee!

With a cluck cluck here

The Ballad of Irene

(with apologies to the Beverly Hillbillies)
by Paul Oddo

Let me tell you about a Club in Fayetteville,

Just like the Little Engine it said that it will.

And then one day she came upon the scene,

A new President by the name of Irene.

Edwards, that is.

Well the first thing she did was get the Club in line.

A new web site and things were going fine.

She took the Club to Destin and had a lot of fun

Winning more awards ‘neath the Florida sun.  

Annual Conference that is.

Well now has come the time to say goodbye Irene

You did your job real well, you had a real great team.

We wish that you could stay

But that’s not the Rotary way,

So bon voyage till we meet next Monday`.

Regular meeting that is.

Lots of members.

Lots of fun.

Ya’ll come back now, ya hear!

Song of the Week: 06-18-07

In the good old summertime,
In the good old summertime,
Strolling thru' a shady lane
With your baby mine.
You hold her hand and she holds yours,
And that's a very good sign
That she's your tootsie wootsie
In the good, old summertime.

IN THE MERRY MONTH OF MAY

While walking through the park one day,

 All in the merry month of May.

I was taken by surprise

  by a pair of roguish eyes.

    In a moment my poor heart was stole away.

A smile was all she gave to me.

We were as happy as could be.

I immediately tipped my hat.

 And finally she remarked.

   Oh I never will forget

     that lovely afternoon

      When I met her at the fountain in the park.

Volcano
Artist:Jimmy Buffett

Now I don't know

When the volcano blow!

I don't know

I don't know where I'm a gonna go
When the volcano blow!

Ground she's movin' under me.
Tidal waves out on the sea.
Sulphur smoke up in the sky.
Pretty soon we learn to fly.

When the volcano blow!

TINY BUBBLES

by Don Ho

Tiny bubbles in the wine,
Make me happy, make me feel fine,
Tiny bubbles make me warm all over
With a feeling that I'm gonna Love you 'til the end of time.

So here's to the golden moon,
And here's to the silver sea,
But most of all a toast to you and me.

Tiny bubbles in the wine,
Make me happy, make me feel fine,
Tiny bubbles make me warm all over
With a feeling that I'm gonna Love you 'til the end of time.

The TAX Thing!
=============

words by Paul  C. Oddo, Jr.
 
As I was walking out the door
of my CPA,
I realized that my tax returns
were due most any day.
I pulled them out
and opened them up
  and much to my surprise...
 
Oh I discovered a (clap, clap, clap)
right before my eyes!
Oh I discovered a (clap, clap, clap)
right before my eyes!
 
I wandered all around the town
until I chanced to meet,
A hobo who was looking for
a handout on the street.
He said he'd take
most any old thing.
  He was a desperate man...
 
But when I showed him my tax return
he turned around and ran!
But when I showed him my tax return
he turned around and ran!
 
The moral of my story's when
you see your CPA,
And he gives you your tax return
and says you have to pay.
Remember that
he's also in
  the same darned boat as you...
 
So just pay your tax and take a drink
That's my advice to you.,
'Cause we'll never get rid of that
(clap, clap, clap)
No matter what we do!!!!

And an Easter bonnet too. Oh!

And you'll know that he was there

Rooms to let, fifty cents.

Buys a eight by twelve fourbit room

The Ballad of Davy Crockett
Fess Parker

Music: George Bruns
Lyrics: Tom Blackburn

Born on a mountain top in Tennessee
greenest state in the land of the free
raised in the woods so he knew ev'ry tree
kilt him a b'ar when he was only three
Davy, Davy Crockett, king of the wild frontier!

He heard of Houston an' Austin so
to the Texas plains he jest had to go
Where freedom was fightin' another foe
an' they needed him at the Alamo
Davy, Davy Crockett, the man who don't know fear!

His land is biggest an' his land is best
from grassy plains to the mountain crest
He's ahead of us all meetin' the test
followin' his legend into the West

Davy, Davy Crockett, king of the wild frontier!

Rawhide Theme Lyrics
SUNG BY Frankie Laine

Rollin' Rollin' Rollin'

Keep movin', movin', movin',
Though they're disapprovin',
Keep them doggies movin' Rawhide!

Don't try to understand 'em,
Just rope and throw and grab 'em,
Soon we'll be living high and wide.

Boy my heart's calculatin'
My true love will be waitin',

be waiting at the end of my ride.

Move 'em on, head 'em up,
Head 'em up, move 'em out,
Move 'em on, head 'em out Rawhide!
Set 'em out, ride 'em in
Ride 'em in, let 'em out,
Cut 'em out, ride 'em in Rawhide.

Rawhide!

LET IT SNOW!
Sammy Cahn, Jule Styne (c) 1945

Oh, the weather outside is frightful,
But the fire is so delightful,
And since we've no place to go,
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow.

It doesn't show signs of stopping,
And I brought some corn for popping;
The lights are turned way down low,
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow.

When we finally say good night,
How I'll hate going out in the storm;
But if you really hold me tight,
All the way home I'll be warm.

The fire is slowly dying,
And, my dear, we're still good-bye-ing,
But as long as you love me so.
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow.

IT'S BEGINNING TO LOOK A LOT LIKE CHRISTMAS!

BY: Perry Como and the Fontane Sisters

Words and Music by Meredith Willson, 1951 
Recorded at Manhattan Center, New York City

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,
On 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.

SONG OF THE Christmas Party: 12-2-06       --- see below for 12-11-06

HOLLY, JOLLY CHRISTMAS

by Burl Ives

Have a holly, jolly Christmas,
It's the best time of the year.
I don't know if there'll be snow
But have a cup of cheer.

Have a holly, jolly Christmas,
And when you walk down the street,
Say Hello to friends you know
And everyone you meet.

Oh ho the mistletoe
Hung where you can see,
Somebody waits for you,
Kiss her once for me.

Have a holly jolly Christmas
And in case you didn't hear
Oh by golly
Have a holly jolly Christmas this year!

Happy Thanksgiving! 

Here's a song to sing before you eat  your Thanksgiving dinner. Your family will be glad you did!

SONG OF THE WEEK: 11-20-and-27-06       

 

Over the River and 
Through the Woods

Over the river and thru the wood,
To grandfather's house we go;
The horse knows the way
To carry the sleigh,
Thru the white and drifted snow, oh!
Over the river and thru the wood,
Oh, how the wind does blow!
It stings the toes,
And bites the nose,
As over the ground we go.

Over the river and thru the wood,
To have a first-rate play;
Oh, hear the bell ring,
"Ting-a-ling-ling!"
Hurrah for Thanksgiving Day-ay!
Over the river and thru the wood,
Trot fast my dapple gray!
Spring over the ground,
Like a hunting hound!
For this is Thanksgiving Day.

SONG OF THE WEEK HAS BEEN CHANGED!!!

SONG OF THE WEEK: 11-13-06       "There's No Business Like Show Business "

Artist(Band):Irving Berlin

From the musical – Annie Get Your Gun

There's no business

   like show business

      like no business I know.

Everything about it is appealing,

   everything the traffic will allow.

Nowhere could you get that happy feeling

  when you are stealing that extra bow.

There's no people

  like show people,

     they smile when they are low.

Even with a turkey that you know will fold,

 you may be stranded out in the cold.

 let's go on with the show!
