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, oh yeah
At the Carolina County Ball
ooooo
When you got it sailing really wailing
It's all right, o-oh right
Oh right
Yeah
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, oh yeah
At the Carolina County Ball
And we sang, yeah, ooooo
On a boogie woogie Friday night, it's all right
Ooooo
When you got it sailing, really wailing, it's all right
All right
Oh yeah
Hey, Doo-o-oo
On a boogie woogie Friday night
Doo-o-o
Say, everything gotta be all right
Doo-o-o
It's a boogie woogie Friday night, hey
Doo-o-o
When you got it sailing, really wailing
It's all right, go ahead
Oh, Doo-o-o
On the boogie woogie Friday night
Doo-o-o
Say, everything gotta be all - so - right
Doo-o-o
It's a boogie woogie Friday night
Doo-o-o
When you got it sailing, really wailing
Hypnotising, tantalising
Carolina County Ball and it's all right
2. L.A. 59
It's thinking of you
That's getting me back on the road again
Hey big train you're eating up the ground
Thunder and rain
Pushing the train that I'm on again
Gotta get me back to L.A. 59
Aw, 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, it's a good day in L.A. 59
Oh right
Thunder and rain
Pushing the train that I'm on again
Get me back to L.A. 59
Hello, hello, sunshine, oh-oh
A good day in L.A., all right
And it's hello, hello sunshine, oh my sunshine
Well, it's a good day in L.A., it's all right, right
yeah
And I talk about
Hello, hello, sunshine
Oh yes, yes, such a good day in L.A., it's all right
Get me back, I sing
Hello, hello, sunshine, shine on me
And such a good day in L.A., it's all right, right, right
I sing hello, hello, sunshine, my close friend
Such a good day in L.A., it's all right, right
I sing hello, hello, sunshine, get me back, get 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 'coz 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.....
Well, ain't it all now, all now, all, ain't it all amusing
I say, ain't it all, right, ain't it all amusing
Oh, oh yeah
Oh, Baby if you flatter me, you might get somewhere
But I ain't gonna flatter you 'coz 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
All amusing
4. Happy
Very very happy that you're so happy
Very very happy for you
Looking round every corner
I'm happy to see that you're happy
Special situations, pleasant demonstrations
'Til 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 round every corner
Look, 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 very very happy, special situations
Very very happy, pleasant demonstration
Very very happy, special situation
Very very happy, pleasant demonstration

5. Annie New Orleans
Aggravatin' Annie you're getting on my fanny
And I just can't cope any more
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
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
Aggravatin' Annie you're on my fanny
And I can't cope any more
When it gets down to fundamentals
Lady, you're confusing
Well, you've got some wrinkles on your face
But they're all in their place
So I wonder, I just wonder
Well are you leading the young boy on?
Annie New Orleans
Hey, Annie New Orleans
Oh, hey, Annie New Orleans
Yeah
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, all right
Mama told me so son you're getting slow
Find a girl to make your own
Women treat you bad everyone 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 truck 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 and how
Help me light the fuse
I got the rocking chair rock 'n' roll blues now
All right, oh yeah, oh yeah
Now you gotta back off Mama, I'm just learning and how
Gotta help me light the fuse
I got the rocking chair rock 'n' roll blues, yeah
Oh, oh oh
Oooh, yeah, 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
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
'Bout women so I walked right up to her
Adam and the Devil got me thinking
'Bout 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
Give me seven days of wonder
Come and stay beside me
Adam and the Devil got me thinking
'Bout women so I walked right up to her
Adam and the Devil got me thinking
'Bout women so I talked right up to her
And I said I ain't got no time to waste
So do the 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
Down to where the honey is sweet
Hey sweet baby go round, go round, go round, go round
Got to knock me off my feet
Lord I got the fever
Stop just 'fore I die
....No, do the same thing!
Do the same thing!
Hey little mama don't fall, fall, fall, fall
Baby I'm depending on you
Yeah, hey sweet woman you call me, call me, call me, call
For anything you want me to do
Lord I got the fever
Stop just 'fore I die
....No, do the same thing!
Do the same thing!
Oh hey!
All right
Crazy little woman go down, go down, go down, go down
Down to where the honey is so sweet
Listen sweet lady go round, go round, go round, go round
Got to knock me off my feet
I say Lord I got the fever
Won't just stop 'fore I die
....No, do the same thing!
Oh, do the same thing!
Yeah, do the same thing!
Oh, do the same thing!
Yeah, do the same thing!
Oh, do the same thing!
Yeah, the same thing!
Oh yeah
