AGAIN
Again this couldn't happen again 
This is that 'once in a lifetime' 
This is the thrill divine 

What's more this never happened before 
Though I have prayed for a lifetime 
That such as you would suddenly be mine 

Mine to hold as I'm holding you now 
And yet never so near 
Mine to have when the now and the here disappear 
What matters dear 

for when this doesn't happen again 
We'll have this moment forever 
But never never again 

AM I BLUE (Akst/Clarke)
Am I blue, am I blue
Aint these tears in my eyes tellin' you
Am I blue, you'de be too
If each pal says your gal done with you

There was a time I was the only one
But now I'm the sad and lonely one, Lordy

Was I gay, till today
Now she's gone and we're through
Am I blue
Was I gay, till today
Now she's gone and we're through
Am I blue
Oh she's gone, left me
Am I blue

BOLL WEEVIL SONG
(Eddie Cochran/Jerry Capehart)
(Wah-hoo)
A-well the boll weevil am the little black bug
Come from a-Mexico they say
Came all the way to Texas
Just a-lookin' for a place to stay
Just a-lookin' for a home, just a-lookin' for a home
(Doo-doo-wop-wop)
Well the first time that I seen the boll weevil
He was a-sittin' on the square
Well the next time that I seen him
He had his a-family there
Just a-lookin' for a home, just a-lookin' for a home
(Doo-doo-wop-wop)
Well the farmer took the boll weevil
And he put him on the red hot sand
Well the weevil said this is a-mighty hot
But I take it like a man
This will be my home, this will be my home

Well the f armer took the boll weevil
And he put him on a keg of ice
Well the weevil said to the farmer
This is mighty cool and nice
This will be my home, this will be my home
(Doo-doo-wop-wop)
Well if anybody should ask you
Who it was who sang this song
Say a guitar picker from a-Oklahoma city
With a pair of blue jeans on
Just a-lookin' for a home, just a-lookin' for a home
(Doo-doo-wop-wop)

CHERISHED MEMORIES
(Sharon Sheeley)
You're goin' away, away from me
But here in my heart is a memory
The way we met, the way we kissed
The way we fell in love

Oh, the little secrets that we shared
When I was sad, the way you cared
To let me know you'd understand
The way you'd hold my hand

Cherished memories, the things that a fellow can't forget
Cherished memories, you're leaving but I love you yet

And now you say that we must part
And even though it breaks my heart
There's one thing you can't take from me
That's my cherished memories

C'MON EVERYBODY
(Eddie Cochran/Jerry Capehart)
C'mon everybody, 
And let's get together tonight
I got some money in my jeans 
And I'm really gonna spend it right
Been a-doin' my homework all week long
Now the house is empty, the folks are gone
Ooh! C'mon everybody!

My baby's number one 
But I'm gonna dance with three or four
And the house'll be shakin' 
From bare feet slappin' the floor
When you hear that music your feet won't sit still
If your brother won't then your sister will
Ooh! C'mon everybody!

We'll really have a party
But we gotta put the car outside
If the folks come home
I'm afraid they gonna have my hide
There'll be no more movies for a week or two
No more runnin' around with the usual crew
Who cares! C'mon everybody!

COTTON PICKER
(Watts/Richardson)
Oh, you ain't a-gonna make a cottonpicker out of me
(Bom-bom-bom)
No, you ain't a-gonna make a cottonpicker out of me
(Bom-bom-bom)

You can make a-me laugh, make a-me cry
Shake the stars right out of the sky
But, you ain't a-gonna make a cottonpicker out of me

You can make a-me sweat, make a-me steam
You can make a-me rock-rock-rock till I scream
But, you ain't a-gonna make a cottonpicker out of me

You can make a-me laugh, make a-me cry
Make a-me roll-roll-roll till I die
But, you ain't a-gonna make a cottonpicker out of me

You can make a-me poor, make a-me rich
Make a-me want the seven-year-itch
But, you ain't a-gonna make a cottonpicker out of me

You can make a-me sing, make a-me dance
Make a-me rock right out of my pants
But, you ain't a-gonna make a cottonpicker out of me

(Hey, hey you cottonpickers, right everybody, back to work)

CUT ACROSS SHORTY
(Marijohn Wilkin/Wayne P. Walker)
Now a country boy called Shorty
And a city boy named Dan
Had to prove who could run the fastest
To win miss Lucy's hand
Now Dan had all the money
And he also had the looks
But Shorty must have had something, boys
That can't be found in books

Well, a-cut across Shorty, Shorty cut across
That's what miss Lucy said
Cut across Shorty, Shorty cut across
It's you I wanna wed

Now Dan had been in training
A week before the race
He made up his mind
Ol' Shorty would end in second place
And Dan with his long legs a-flyin'
Left Shorty far behind
And Shorty heard him holler out
Miss Lucy, you'll soon be mine

But Shorty wasn't worried
There was a smile upon his face
He knew that he was a-goin' to win
'Cause Lucy had fixed the race
And just like that old story
About the turtle and the hare
When Dan crossed over the finish line
He found Shorty waiting there

DARK LONELY STREET
(Eddy Cochran/Jerry Capeheart)  
Here am I, I walk alone    D G D
I have no love of my own   G D
Out of reach, out of sight A G
Well I'll find her tonight F#m Em
On this dark lonely street F#m A D

I'm in love with the dream
Of a girl I've never seen
Well each shadow I pass
Is in my looking glass
On this dark lonely street

Here's my love just pretend
Will this street ever end
Maybe this cigarette
Will have me to forget
This dark lonely street

HALLELUJAH I LOVE HER SO
(Ray Charles)

Let me tell you 'bout the girl I know
She's my baby and I love her so
Every morning when the sun comes up
She brings me coffee in my favourite cup
Then I know, yes I know
Hallelujah, I love her so

If I call her on the telephone
Saying, 'Baby, I'm all alone'
............................
I hear her knocking on my door

In the evening when the sun comes down
And there ain't nobody else around
She kisses me and she holds me tight
Saying, 'Baby, everything's alright'
Then I know, yes I know
Hallelujah, I love her so

NERVOUS BREAKDOWN
(Mario Rocuzzo)
I'm having a nervous breakdown
A mental shakedown
See my hands nave a shiver
See my knees have a quiver
My whole body seems to jitter
I'm having a nervous breakdown

Well, I went to see my doctor
Just the other day
I'm about to tell you
What a man had to say
Well, said 'Brown, baby,
You gotta slow down
You can't keep a-chasing
Over the town
After giving you a physical check
I've come to the conclusion
You're a total wreck'

I'm having a nervous breakdown...

Well, I made up my mind
I'm gonna change my ways
I shouted, 'Nurse, 
You've seen better days'
Well, no more movies
For a week or two
No more runnin' around
With the usual crew
No more drinking and stayin' up late
Oh, baby, I'll have myself
A normal date

PINK PEGGED SLACKS
(Eddy&Hank Cochran/Jerry Capeheart)
I went down town last night, gonna dig a show
When I passed a display window of a big department store
Well I looked inside this window, Man, all filled up with racks
And down there near the bottom was a crazy pair of slacks
I gotta have 'em, yeah-well I need 'em for this cat
Well-well yeah how can I go cattin' Without crazy pink peg slacks

I gotta have 'em
Yeah I need them for this cat
Well you had no cat without them
Crazy pink pegged slacks

Well I walked up to the salesman, I said 'Mister, I'm flat broke
But I'm gotta have them pink slacks' he said 'Man is this a joke?'
Well I asked him how much money, he said add up four and eight
He said, man them pants is crazy Them's pink, rayon acetate
CHORUS

Well I went to see my baby, asked her for some dough
Said well you know I love you honey but what d'you need this money for'
Well I told her 'bout them peggers  I found (I'd run)across downtown
Got a sawbuck from her daddy, yeah and I turned my Ford around

CHORUS

I saved (set) my Ford into a stop, rushed into the store
I said man I got a sawbuck, he said you need two bucks more
I said, 'Man can't I charge it?' He said, Man we don't get these things for free
I said, mister you just don't realize What these pink peggers mean to me

CHORUS

SOMETHING ELSE
(Eddy Cochran/Sharon Sheeley)
Hey look a there, here she comes
Here comes that girl again
Wanted to date her since I don't know when
But she don't notice me when I pass
She goes with all the boys from out of my class
But that can stop me from a-thinkin' to myself
'She's sure fine looking, man
She's sometin' else'

Hey look a there, across the street
There's a car meant just for me
To own a car would be a luxury
But right now I can't afford a gas
A brand new convertible is out of my class
But that can stop me from a-thinkin' to myself
'That car's fine looking, man
It's sometin' else'

Hey look a here, just wait and see
Work hard and save my dough
I'll buy that car that I've been wanting so
Get me that girl and we'll go ridin' around
We'll look real sharp with the white top down
I'll keep right on dreamin' and a-thinkin' to myself
'When it all comes true, man
Wow that's sometin' else'

Hey look a here, what's all this
Never thought I'd do this before
But here I am a-knockin' on a door
My car's out front and it's all mine
Just a '41 Ford, not a '59
I got that girl and I'm a-thinkin' to myself
'She's sure fine looking, man
Wow, she's sometin' else'

STOCKING' AND SHOES
(Cochran)
My baby goes rockin' rockin all night
No shoes no stockin' but they dance alright
Well she don't need no stockin'n'shoes to rock all night
Stockin'n'shoes
Well you don't need no stockin'n'shoes to dance the blues

Well I love my baby indeed I do
Well I love my baby she loves me too
All the sea is rock witout stockin'n'shoes

Well the band is rapping on a hardwood floor
Well there's a crazy thing a-happening
All around about four
And the very next night my baby's back for more

Well the bop my baby some crazy socks
I love my baby she only wears soaks
She takes her shoes right off and then she rocks


SUMMERTIME BLUES
(Eddy Cochran/Jerry Capeheart)
Well I'm gonna raise a fuss, I'm gonna raise a holler
About working all summer just to try to earn a dollar
Every time I call my baby try to get a date
My boss says 'No dice, son, you gotta work late'
S  Sometimes I wonder what I'm a-gonna do D
But there ain't no cure for the summertime blues

My Mom'n'Papa told me 'Son, you gotta make some money
If you wanna use the car to go a-riding next Sunday'
I didn't go to work, told the bass I was sick
'Now you can't use the car, cause you didn't work a lick'
Sometimes I wonder what I'm a-gonna do
But there ain't no cure for the summertime blues

I'm gonna take two weeks, gonna have a fine vacation
I'm gonna take my problem to the United Nations
Well I called my congressman and he said, quote
'I'd like to help you, son, but you're too young to vote'
Sometimes I wonder what I'm gonna do
But there ain't no cure for the summertime blues

TEENAGE HEAVEN
(Cochran)
I want a house with a pool
Shorter hours in school
And a room with my own private phone
I wanna stay up all night
See the big city lights
No more troubles or words at home

Just give me some time on my hands
I want to make my home out of plans
I want my own coup de ville
Make my dad pay the bills
Yeah, man, that's heaven to me

TEENAGE CUTIE
(Eddie Cochran/Jerry Capehart)
Teenage cutie, don't say maybe,you just gotta kiss me tonight
Teenage baby, don't refuse me,you just gotta hug me tonight
You gotta tickle my chin, run your fingers through my hair
You gotta sit real close, whisper in my ear
You gotta say you care, you be my gal
Baby, I wanna be more than a pal
So teenage cutie, say you love me, please don't tease me
And we'll rock and roll the rest of the night

You gotta cuddle uo and hold me tight
You gotta kiss me honey and a-kiss me right
You gotta say you care, you be my gal
Baby, I wanna be more than a pal
So teenage cutie, say you love me, please don't tease me
And we'll rock and roll the rest of the night
Well teenage cutie, teenage cutie, teenage cutie

THREE STEPS TO HEAVEN
Now there are three steps to heaven 
Just listen and you will plainly see 
And as life travels on 
And things do go wrong 
Just follow steps 1 2 and 3 

Step 1: You find a girl you love 
Step 2: She falls in love with you 
Step 3: You kiss and hold her tightly 
Now that sure seems like heaven to me 

The formula for heaven's very simple 
Just follow the rules and you will see 
And as life travels on 
And things do wrong 
Just follow steps 1 2 and 3 

Step 1: you find a girl you love 
Step 2: she falls in love with you 
Step 3: you kiss and hold her tightly 
Now that sure seems like heaven to me 
Just follow steps 1 2 and 3

TIRED AND SLEEPY
(Eddie & Hank Cochran/Jerry Capehart)
Well I'm a uptown cat, yeah even a crazy pet
Well I'm a ladies man, yes a smooth talkin' dad
I gotta go to bed 'cause I'm tired and sleepy
I can't love you baby 'cause I'm tired and sleepy
Tired and sleepy, ooh baby so tired
I left the house last night, yeah with style and grace
I met a wild-wild woman, yeah I tried to keep the pace
I got a fifty dollar headache, yeah hundred dollar shoes
A big long pink Cadillac and a bad-bad case of blues
Yeah I'm a-waiting for you daddy
Yeah that's what my baby said
But honey I got a passion for my kingsize bed

20 FLIGHT ROCK
(Eddy Cochran/Jerry Capeheart)
Well I got a girl with a record machine
When it comes to rocking she's a queen
We love to dance on a Saturday nights
When we're all alone I can hold her tight
But she lives on the 20th floor uptown
The elevator's broken down

CHORUS
So I walk one, two flight, three flight, four
Five, six, seven flight, eight flight more
Upon the twelfth I'm starting to drag
Fifteenth floor I'm ready to sag
Get to the top I'm too tired to rock

Well she called me upon the telephone
Come on over baby I'm alone
I said baby you're mighty sweet
But I'm in bed with aching feet
This went on for a couple of days
But I couldn't stay away

It's sent to Chicago for repairs
Until it's fixed I'm using the stairs
I hope they hurry before it's too late
I love my baby too much to wait
All this climbing is getting me down
And find my corpse drape over the rail
