BOBBY VEE

Suzie Baby
(Bobby Vee)

Suzie baby, where are you?
Have you left me for someone new?
Is your lovelight shinin' bright?
Will you love me or leave me tonight?
Suzie baby, don't you know
That I love you & want you so?
Come back baby, come back home
Say you'll love me & never again roam

Suzie baby, I love you
Say you'll come back & love me too
Since you left me, gone away
I've been lonely, alone each day
Suzie baby, where are you?
Have you left me for someone new?

Suzie baby, don't you know
That I love you & want you so?
Someday baby, you'll be blue
& you'll wish that you'd die for me too

What Do You Want
(Les VanDyke)

What do you want if you don't want money?
What do you want if you don't want gold?
Say what you want & I'll give to you darling
Wish you wanted my love, baby

What do you want if you don't want ermine?
What do you want if you don't want pearls?
Say what you want & I'll give to you darling
Wish you wanted my love, baby

Well I'm offerin' you this heart of mine, but all you do is play it cool
What do you want, or are you makin' a fool of me?
What other days when you need my kisses?
What other days when you want me to?
Don't turn around 'cause I'll be missin'
Then you want my love, baby

Well I'm offerin' you the diamond ring, but all you do is turn me down
What do you want or are you goin' to town on me?
What other days when you need my kisses?
What other days when you want me to?
Don't turn around 'cause I'll be missin'
Then you want my love, baby
Well, then you want my love, baby

One Last Kiss
(Adams/Strouse)

(One last kiss, one last kiss, give me one last kiss)

Oh one last kiss, oh baby one last kiss
It never felt like this, oh baby not like this
You know I need your love, oh oh oh give me one last kiss

Oh one more time, oh baby one more time
You made me feel so blind, oh baby so blind
You know I need your love, oh oh oh give me one last kiss

Bridge:
Darling it isn't right I must be sayin' goodnight
Don't let me go like this
Baby I need you, so what if I have to
Go, just give me one last kiss

(repeat verse 1)
(repeat bridge)
(repeat verse 1)

Oh oh oh give me one last kiss (just one last kiss)

More Than I Can Say
(Sonny Curtis/Jerry Allison)

Wo wo yea yea, love you more than I can say
I'll love you twice as much tomorrow
Wo wo love you more than I can say

Wo wo yea yea, I miss you every single day
Why must my life be filled with sorrow?
Wo wo love you more than I can say

Bridge:
Don't you know I need you so?
Tell me please, I gotta know
Do you mean to make me cry?
Am I just another guy?

(repeat verse 1)
(instrumental)
(repeat bridge)
(repeat verse 1)

How Many Tears (Can You Cry)
(Gerry Goffin/Carole King)

(Female scat "Yum diddy dum diddy um" at start & between verses)

How many tears can you cry when you're sad & lonely?
& how many tears can you cry when someone makes you blue?
That's a question I'm still unable to answer
'Cause I can't stop my cryin' over you

How many lies can you can you count when you just can't sleep at night?
& how many lies can you count before your heart is free?
That's a question I'm still unable to answer
'Cause I'm still countin' the lies you told to me

There's just no end to all the broken promises that I recall
I was a fool to fall for you
It hurts to know you played a game & went & had yourself a ball
& through it all made me blue

How many tears can you cry when it all is over?
& how many tears can you cry when you want someone new?
That's a question I'm still unable to answer
'Cause I can't stop my love for you

(repeat above verse, with female scat in place of lines 1 & 2)
(repeat title & fade)

Punish Her
(Nader/Gluck)

If she has wronged you, found someone new
But you feel it's not over, here's what you must do:

Punish her, kill her with kindness
Ah buy her red roses every day
Ah punish her with so much affection
That she will cry for the love she threw away

She'll soon rediscover with tears in her eyes
That you're the only lover she was born to idolize; just...

Punish her, blind her with kisses
Ah till she can see how she let you go oh oh
Then whisper "Darlin' darlin' darlin', I still love you so"

(backup sings title x4)
Ah...

(repeat verse 3)
(repeat title & fade)

Be True To Yourself
(Hal David/Burt Bacharach)

Be true to yourself, & you'll always be true to me
Be true to yourself, & you'll be the the girl that I want you to be
Remember that if some other guy catches your eye, just follow your heart
I know your heart won't lead you wrong; our love is much too strong
I'm not afraid of losin' you, I have faith in you, can't you see?
Darlin', be true to yourself, & you'll always be true to me

(repeat whole verse, with instrumental in place of lines 1 & 2)

I'll Make You Mine
(Bobby Vee)

Da da da da da da da (x2)

I'll make you mine, yes I will; just give me a little time
All of the words that I wanna say are hard to find

I'll make you mine, yes I will; just give me a little time
To let you know how I really feel & make you mine

Bridge:
I'm not the kind of guy who'll say a lot of fancy things that
Sweep you off your feet before you even know what's happening, but

(repeat verse 1)

Da da da da da da da (x2)

(repeat bridge)
(repeat verse 2)

Da da da da da da da (x2)

Just wait a little while, then I'll find a way to tell you
You're gonna be my girl, then I'm gonna build my world around you

(repeat verse 1)

Da da da da da da da (x3)

Look At Me Girl
(J. Williams)

Look at me, girl
I'm tryin' hard to make you see
That it won't do, my bein' free
I gotta have you by my side
To take away the spell inside of me

Look at me, girl
Can't you see? Everything you do
Is all right if I have you
It's just me, oh I'm all set
Please remember, don't forget what I say

Bridge:
I really love you & I want you to know
I'm thinkin' of you, girl, everywhere I go

Look at me, girl
Please don't turn away when I say
That I long to see the day
When our clouds will pass away
& you'll be mine, again I'll pray

(repeat bridge & verse 3)
(repeat title & fade)

Beautiful People
(Kenny Gist, Jr.)

CHORUS:
You've just gotta be one of the most
Beautiful people in the whole wide world
It's true, it's true, it's true, & I love you

You're so easy to make conversation with
& nobody else can please me that way
No one can say that you're a wallflower
'Cause you've always got somethin' groovy to say

(chorus)

Talk about a girl with a sweet disposition
You are a girl with hair full of ribbons
& wear 'em in your hair every day of the week for me

Ah people turn around & know we're the
Happiest people today in this whole town
& it's no wonder that they kinda wonder
If we're not the grooviest couple around

(chorus)
(female "la la la" scat)

(chorus)
I do, I do, I do, mmm I love you

(repeat & fade):
You've just gotta be one of the most
Beautiful people in the whole wide world

Maybe Just Today
(Martha Sharp)

Baby I don't need to know who your big love was yesterday
Oh & there's no way to tell if you & I are gonna make it all the way
'Cause what is past is past
& what will last, girl, it's gonna last
All that matters is today & tomorrow
Baby, maybe maybe just today

The times they are a-changin', girl, with ever-quickenin' speed
Ah but today I wanna give you all the lovin' left & that you need
'Cause what is done is done
& what's to come, mmm baby, let it come
All that matters is today & tomorrow
Baby, maybe maybe just today

Don't be afraid to live for the moment
Trust me & love me this way
If you keep lookin' back or thinkin' ahead
Baby, we're gonna miss out on today
'Cause what is past is past
& what will last, girl, it's gonna last
All that matters is today & tomorrow
Baby, maybe maybe just today

(repeat & fade):
All that matters is today & tomorrow
Baby, maybe maybe just today
