Party Songs
 Que Sera Sera
When I was just a little girl
I asked my mother, "What will I be?
Will I be pretty, will I be rich?"
Here's what she said to me
Chorus:
"Que Sera, Sera,
Whatever will be, will be
The future's not ours to see
Que Sera, Sera,
What will be, will be"
When I was young, I fell in love
I asked my sweetheart, "What lies ahead?
Will we have rainbows, day after day?"
Here's what my sweetheart said
Now I have children of my own
They ask their mother, "What will I be
Will I be handsome, will I be rich?"
I tell them tenderly
 Down by the riverside
I left my little brown-eyed doll
Down by the riverside
Down by, down by the riverside (2)
I left my little brown-eyed doll
Down by the riverside (2)
I asked her for a little kiss
Down by the riverside
Down by, down by the riverside (2)
I asked her for a little kiss
Down by the riverside (2)
She said: Patience little man
I’m sure you’ll understand
I hardly know your name
I said if I could have my way
Then maybe one sweet day
Your name and mine will be the same.
I wed my little brown-eyed doll
Down by the riverside
Down by, down by the riverside (2)
I wed my little bown-eyed doll
Down by the riverside (2)
 Daisy Daisy

Daisy, Daisy
Give me your answer to
I’m so crazy
Just for the love of you
It won’t be a fancy marriage
‘Cos I can’t afford a carriage
You look so sweet upon a seat
On a bicycle meant for two.
Michael, Michael
Here is my answer true
I can’t cycle
It makes me black and blue
Call off the blinking marriage
If you can’t afford a carriage
Cause I be damned
If I’ll be crammed
On a bicycle meant for two.
 My Bonnie lies over the ocean
My Bonnie lies over the ocean
My Bonnie lies over the sea
My Bonnie lies over the ocean
O bring back my Bonnie to me
Bring back, O bring back
O bring back my Bonnie to me
Bring back, O bring back
O bring back my Bonnie to me
Last night as I lay on my pillow
Last night as I lay on my bed
Last night as I lay on my pillow
I dreamt that my Bonnie was dead.
 You are my sunshine
You are my sunshine, my only sunshine
You make me happy when skies are grey
You never know, dear, how much I love you
Please don't take my sunshine away
I'll always love you and make you happy
If you will only say the same
But if you leave me to love another,
You'll regret it all one day
You are my sunshine, my only sunshine
You make me happy when skies are grey
You never know, dear, how much I love you
Please don't take my sunshine away
The other night, dear, as I lay sleeping
 Party Songs
I dreamt I held you in my arms
When I awoke, dear, I was mistaken
So I hung my head, and I cried
 Michael row the boat ashore
Michael row the boat ashore, hallelujah (2)
Sister help to trim the sail, hallelujah (2)
The river is deep and the river is wide, hallelujah
Green pastures on the other side, hallelujah
Jordan's river is chilly and cold, hallelujah
Chills the body but not the soul, hallelujah

 Danny Boy
Chorus:
Oh, Danny boy, the pipes, the pipes are calling
From glenn to glenn and down the mountain side
The summer's gone and all the roses falling
It's you, it's you must go and I must bide.
But come ye back when summer's in the meadow
Or when the valley's hushed and even white with
snow
Hey, I'll be there in sunshine or in shadow
Oh Danny boy, oh Danny boy, I love you so.
(Chorus)
 Bachelor Boy
When I was young my father said
'Son I have something to say'
And what he told me I'll never forget
Until my dying day
Chorus:
He said son you are a bachelor boy
And that's the way to stay
Son, you'll be a bachelor boy
Until your dying day
When I was 16, I fell in love
With a girl as sweet as can be
But I remembered just in time
What my daddy said to me
 Party Songs
Chorus:
As time goes by I probably will
Meet a girl and fall in love
Then I'll get married have a wife and child
And they'll be my turtle doves
But until then, I'll be a bachelor boy
And that's the way I'll stay
Happy to be a bachelor boy
Until my dying day.
 Congratulations
Chorus: Congratulations and celebrations
When I tell everyone that you're in love with me
Congratulations and jubilations
I want the world to know I'm happy as can be.
Who could believe that I could be happy and
contented
I used to think that happiness hadn't been
invented
But that was in the bad old days before I met you
When I let you walk into my heart
Chorus
I was afraid that maybe you thought you were
above me
That I was only fooling myself to think you loved
me
But then tonight you said you couldn't live
without me
That round about me, you wanted to stay
Chorus

We're all going on a summer holiday
No more working for a week or two
Fun and laughter on our summer holiday
No more worries for me or you
For a week or two

We're going where the sun shines brightly
We're going where the sea is blue
We've seen it in the movies
Now let's see if it's true

Everybody has a summer holiday
Doing things they always wanted to
So we're going on a summer holiday
To make our dreams come true
For me and you
Chorus:
We're all going on a summer holiday
No more working for a week or two
Fun and laughter on our summer holiday
No more worries for me or you
For a week or two
Chorus:
 Edelweiss
Edelweiss, Edelweiss
Every morning you greet me
Small and white, clean and bright
You look happy to meet me
Blossom of snow may you bloom and grow
Bloom and grow forever

Bless my homeland forever
 Please release me
Please release me, let me go
For I don't love you anymore
To waste our lives would be a sin
Release me and let me love again
I have found a new love, dear
And I will always want her near
Her lips are warm while yours are cold
Release me, my darling, let me go
Please release me, let me go)
For I don't love you anymore
(To waste my life would be a sin)
So release me and let me love again
Please release me, can't you see
You'd be a fool to cling to me
To live our lives would bring us pain
So release me and let me love again
(Let me love, let me love)
 Party Songs
 Green Green Grass of Home
The old home town looks the same
As I step down from the train,
And there to meet me is my Mama and Papa.
Down the road I look and there runs Mary
Hair of gold and lips like cherries.
It's good to touch the green, green grass of home.
Yes, they'll all come to meet me, arms reaching,
smiling sweetly.
It's good to touch the green, green grass of home.
The old house is still standing though the paint is
cracked and dry,
And there's that old oak tree that I used to play
on.
Down the lane I walk with my sweet Mary,
Hair of gold and lips like cherries.
It's good to touch the green, green grass of home.
Yes, they'll all come to see me
In the shade of that old oak tree
As they lay me 'neath the green, green grass of
home.
 Blowing in the wind
How many roads must a man walk down
Before you call him a man?
How many seas must a white dove sail
Before she sleeps in the sand?
How many times must the cannon balls fly
Before they're forever banned?
Chorus:
The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind
The answer is blowin' in the wind.
How many years can a mountain exist
Before it's washed to the sea?
How many years can some people exist
Before they're allowed to be free?
How many times can a man turn his head
And pretend that he just doesn't see?
Chorus:
How many times must a man look up
Before he can see the sky?
How many ears must one man have
Before he can hear people cry?
How many deaths will it take 'til he knows
4
That too many people have died?
Chorus:
 This land is your land
Chorus:
This land is your land, this land is my land
From California to the New York island
From the Redwood forest to the Gulf Stream
waters
This land was made for you and me
As I was walking that ribbon of highway
I saw above me that endless skyway
I saw below me that golden valley
This land was made for you and me
Chorus:
I've roamed and rambled and I followed my
footsteps
To the sparkling sands of her diamond deserts
And all around me, a voice was sounding
This land was made for you and me
Chorus:
When the sun came shining and I was strolling
And the wheat fields waving and the dust clouds
rolling
As the fog was lifting, a voice was chanting
This land was made for you and me
 We shall not be moved
Well I'm on my way to heaven
We shall not be moved
On my way to heaven
We shall not be moved
Just like a tree that's standing by the water side
We shall not be moved
Chorus:
We shall not, we shall not be moved (2)
Just like a tree that's standing by the water side
We shall not be moved
We’re on the road to freedom
We shall not be moved
On the road to freedom
We shall not be moved
 Party Songs
Just like a tree that's standing by the water side  May the Good Lord bless
We shall not be moved Chorus:
May the good Lord bless and keep you whether
Chorus: near or far away
May you find that long awaited
We're brothers together golden day today
We shall not be moved May your troubles all be small ones
We're brothers together and your fortunes ten times ten
We shall not be moved May the good Lord bless and keep you
Just like a tree that's standing by the water side till we meet again
We shall not be moved May you walk with sunlight shining
and a bluebird in every tree
Chorus: May there be a silver lining
back on every cloud you see
 Quando Quando Quando Fill your dreams with sweet tomorrows
Tell me when will you be mine never mind what might have been
Tell me quando, quando, quando May the good Lord bless and keep you
We can share a love divine till we meet again
Please don't make me wait again

When will you say yes to me  It is no secret

Tell me quando, quando, quando The chimes of time ring out the news
You mean happiness to me Another day is through
Oh my love, please tell me when Some one slipped and fell,
Every moment's a day Was that someone you?
Every day seems a lifetime
Let me show you the way You may have longed for added strength
To a joy beyond compare Your courage to renew
Do not be disheartened
I can't wait a moment more I have news for you.
Tell me quando, quando, quando
Say it's me that you adore [Chorus:]
And then darling, tell me when It is no secret what God can do,
What he has done for others,
Every moment's a day He'll do for you.
Every day seems a lifetime With arms wide open,
Let me show you the way He'll pardon you
To a joy beyond compare It is no secret what God can do.

I can't wait a moment more There is no night, for in His light

Tell me quando, quando, quando You'll never walk alone.
Say it's me that you adore You'll always feel at home wherever you may
And then darling, tell me when roam,
Oh my darling, tell me when There is no power can conquer you,
My darling, tell me when While God is on your side.
Take Him at His promise,
Don't run away and hide.
[Chorus]
