*Jimmy Loves Maryann*

Music and lyrics by Elliot Lurie

Just seventeen, everything that she's seen
Is all there in her eyes
So many years of her poor mama's tears
And her daddy's sweet lies
But there's nobody home
And Maryann's alone
Almost fully grown, and worldly wise

Jimmy's been down, he's been out and around
And he knows where it's at
Love would be good if he thought that he could
But it isn't like that
He don't make mistakes
And what he needs, he takes
Jimmy gets all the breaks 'cause he knows how

Chorus:
Jimmy loves Maryann
Jimmy wants to be her man
Jimmy loves Maryann
She thinks it's alright

She's not alone when she picks up the phone
And she hears Jimmy say
"Baby, I’m beat…I’m sick of the street, feel like runnin' away
There's no life here at all
The city seems so small
And there's a sweeter music calling us away”

Chorus

Big money town, it'll drag you right down
If you go it alone
Even the strong don't survive very long
When they're out on their own

Jimmy knows it's true, and Maryann knows it, too
They could see each other through
If they hold on

Chorus x2…

*License to Dance*

Music and lyrics by JB Frank and Roland DeVoile

Get up, whatchya waitin’ for?
We ain’t sending out no invitation
Get out on the floor
You don’t need no reservations

Do what you want to do
No one’s gonna stop you

Chorus:
You don’t need a license to dance
You don’t need a license to dance
You don’t need a license to dance
No, not in this town baby

Get loose, there’s no excuse
Just move to the beat now
Don’t wait for nobody to ask
Just follow your feet now

Shake it up
Dance all night
Keep on dancing ‘til you see the sunlight
Don’t worry about nothing tonight
Can’t be wrong cause it feels so right

Do what you want to do
No one’s gonna stop you

Chorus

Let’s go!

Do what you want to do
No one’s going to stop you

A license to dream, a license to drive
You need a license just to be alive
Can’t get a license if you’re underage
But you don’t need a license to dance
No, not in this place

Do what you wanna do
No one’s going to stop you
You don’t need a license to dance
You don’t need a license to dance

*Life After Love*

Music and lyrics by Bobby and Larson Paine

Hey-hey, Whoa
Hey-hey, Whoa

I can’t stop thinkin’ about the love that I lost
I blew a good thing and now I can’t pay the cost
He was the one I’ve been living for
But my heart stopped beatin’ when he walked out the door

Now will I die without a love, could this be the end
Will I find another lover and be born again?

Chorus:
Is there life after love?
Shine on forever like the stars up above
Is there life, is there life after love?
Do lovers ever find the heaven that they’re all dreamin’ of?

Is there life, hey-hey, after love, whoa
Is there life, hey-hey, after love, whoa

Now I’ve been a fool, I gotta confess
I never once thought about his happiness
I believe we all love and learn
And everything that you do someday will return
Well I know how easy a good love can die
But there’s still one thing that’s got me mystified

Chorus

Sometimes the future is so unclear
And I’ve been in love for a thousand years
When all of us die
Is there new life for my soul?
I gotta know

Chorus

I gotta know
I gotta know babe
Is there life after love?

*Stop Me*

Music and lyrics by Josie Cotton and Larson Paine

You know I told you out front
The only thing that I want
Is all your love every day
If you don’t see it my way

Chorus:
Stop me, cause I’m losing my mind over you
Stop me, if I’m wasting my time
If you want to be kind …
Stop me

Bad love left a scar
It nearly ruined my heart
Already suffered too much
So if you don’t want my love

Chorus

You know I told you out front
The only thing that I want
Is all your love every day
If you don’t see it my way

Stop me, cause I’m losing my mind over you
Stop me, if you want to be kind
Stop me

*No Use Crying*

Music and lyrics by Josie Cotton

Do you know the game now
Have you heard the score?
When the rules are broken
That’s what the rules are for
When you start out, you’re playing around
Then there you are at your first down

There’s no use crying
No use crying
No use crying anymore

When you’re on the rebound
You’re running back again
Just where you’re headed
It depends where you’ve been

One day you’re up, you’re havin’ a ball
Better get your kicks before you fall

Chorus:
Cause there’s no use crying
No use crying
No use crying anymore

When the love you found
Goes out of bounds
And you feel like love’s gonna pass you by
I’m telling you that it’s right on time

No use crying
No use crying
No use crying anymore

*Straight Talk*

Music and lyrics by Josie Cotton

Well deep in the jungle lives a primitive man
Say ooga booga and he understands
He don’t have too many words to choose from
Sure enough knows how to use ‘em

Well, civilization is a different game
They’re double talkin’ every step of the way
Side effect from the elocution
What we get is a mass confusion

Chorus:
Straight Talk… Oh Baby, that’s what I need
Straight Talk… Baby baby, better give it to me
Straight Talk… Can’t believe a single word you say
Straight Talk… But I listen to it everyday
Gonna open up your eyes
Shut down all of this jive
Straight Talk, Straight Talk
Straight Talk, Straight Talk

Some folks speak in a foreign tongue
Me I talk American
With a voulez vous and a con cuidado
It’s all the same far as I know
If you level with me, I‘m gonna get your draft
Like way out west, shoot it from the hip
Speak your mind, tell it like you see it
Come on say it like you really mean it

Chorus

Gonna bring you to your knees
Man you better believe
Straight Talk, Straight Talk
Straight Talk, Straight Talk

Chorus

Gonna open up your eyes
Shut down all of this jive
Straight Talk, Straight Talk
Straight Talk, Straight Talk

*Gina*

Music and lyrics by Bobby and Larson Paine

I said Gina don't you run with him
Girl I’m talking to you like a friend
He’s gonna throw your love away
Better listen when I say
Gina don't you run with him

I tell you Gina he’s a bad mistake
He’s a chance that you don’t have to take
He’s gonna bring you to your knees
Break your heart and leave
Gina don't you run with him

Chorus:
Ah Gina you're a young girl
But I know you're old enough to decide
He’s only foolin’ but I can see the love in your eyes
I said Gina don't you run with him. No
Gina don't you run with him

Chorus

No, no…
Listen what I’m saying to you
Gina don't you run with him
Girl I’m talking to you like a friend
He’s gonna throw your love away
Better listen when I say
Gina don't you run with him

*Come With Me*

Music and lyrics by Dana Fatigante and JB Frank

I know that she’s been hurting you
I know she makes you cry
She leaves you all alone at night
With only shady alibis

The way she treats you babe
Just ain’t right … no
We could change, we could change it if we do it tonight

Chorus:
Come with me, I’ll make it better
Come with me, you’ll see
Come with me, I’ll make you happy if you…
Come with me

If you were mine, I’d treat you fine
I’d treasure every day
And all the pain she made you feel
In time would fade away

The way you’re living baby
Just ain’t right...no
It could change, we could change it if we do it tonight

Chorus

She’s got you under her spell
She’ll cut you down can’t you tell
If you stay, she’ll do it and then she’ll break your heart again

I’ll make it better
You’ll see
I’ll make you happy if you…
Come with me

Chorus x2

Come with me….

*School Is In*

Written by F. Guida, G Barge, G. Anderson

A-one, a-two
A-one, two, three, four

Well, I'm so glad that school is in
And I can see my old classmates again
I worked and slaved the summer through
Doing all the things my mama told me to do
I washed the dishes; I scrubbed the floor
And taught baby brother how to count to four
Now I'm so glad that summers past
And school is in at last

Chorus:
School is in… Everybody woah, yeah
School is in… Yeah, yeah, yeah, school is in
School is in… Don't you know it
School is in… Oh yeah, yeah
School is in… hey, hey, yeah, school is in

Now you make think I'm nutty and tellin’ you lies
But I'm going out tonight and buy my school supplies
Cause this semester’s gonna be a gas
I said school is in at last

Chorus

Now summertime has come to an end
So I've gotta get back to my studies again
And make good grades so I can pass
And move on up to the head of my class
I washed the dishes; I scrubbed the floor
And taught baby brother how to count to four
Now I'm so glad that summers past
And school is in at last

School is in… Everybody woah, yeah
School is in… Yeah, yeah, yeah, school is in
School is in… I got a witness
School is in… Oh yeah, I gotta go
School is in… hey, hey, yeah, school is in

*Way Out West*

Music and lyrics by Josie Cotton, Bobby Pain, Larson Paine and JB Frank

The sky was falling down
Rain was turning black
Left for Motor City in a beat up Cadillac
And they’re gone
Way Out West

Passed a little town
Across the open plain
Heard the lonesome whistle of a runaway train
Heading out
Way Out West

We got this down and we don’t need a map
Going to California and we ain’t coming back
Let’s Go!

Way Out West
Way Out West
Way Out

Engine runnin’ hot
Fuel was getting low
Speeding like a bullet down in New Mexico
Moving Out
Way Out West

Riding through the badlands, Couldn’t get no kicks
Stay out of Tucumcari, There’s no route 66
Said it’s gone
Way Out West

Cross the burnin’ sands right into the settin’ sun
You look like Jesse James when you give it the gun

Way Out West
Way Out West
Way Out

Coming down the mountain at a 110
The car began to rattle
And it started to spin

The California life
We knew we had arrived
But Uncle Jed looked out and said you’re lucky you’re alive
Yea, they’re gone
Way Out West

We hit the 101
What a crazy trip
Rollin’ rollin’ rockin’ on the Sunset Strip
Really gone
Way out West

Said it’s gone
Way Out West
Really gone
Way Out
Way Out
