Track 1 My Bonnie Lies Over The Ocean by Mitch Miller
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, bring back O bring back my Bonnie to me, to me Bring back, 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
Bring back, bring back O bring back my Bonnie to me, to me Bring back, bring back O bring back my Bonnie to me
O blow ye winds over the ocean O blow ye winds over the sea O blow ye winds over the ocean And bring back my Bonnie to me
Cont… Cont…
Bring back, bring back O bring back my Bonnie to me, to me Bring back, bring back O bring back my Bonnie to me
Track 2 Dashing Away With A Smoothing Iron by DWS Chorale
Twas on a Monday morning that I beheld my darling She looked so neat and charming in every high degree She looked so neat and nimble-o a-washing of her linen-o
Dashing away with the smoothing iron Dashing away with the smoothing iron Dashing away with the smoothing iron She stole my heart away
'Twas on a Tuesday morning, that I beheld my darling She looked so neat and charming, in every high degree She looked so neat and nimble-o, a-hanging out her linen-o
Dashing away with the smoothing iron Dashing away with the smoothing iron Dashing away with the smoothing iron She stole my heart away
'Twas on a Wednesday morning, that I beheld my darling She looked so neat and charming, in every high degree She looked so neat and nimble-o, a-starching of her linen-o
'Twas on a Thursday morning, that I beheld my darling She looked so neat and charming, in every high degree She looked so neat and nimble-o, a-ironing of her linen-o
Dashing away with the smoothing iron Dashing away with the smoothing iron Dashing away with the smoothing iron She stole my heart away
Track 3 Autumn Leaves by Nat King Cole
The falling leaves Drift by the window The Autumn leaves Of red and gold
I see your lips The summer kisses The sunburned hands I used to hold
Since you went away The days grow long And soon I'll hear Old winter's song
But I miss you most of all My darling When Autumn leaves Start to fall
The falling leaves Drift by the window The Autumn leaves Of red and gold
I see your lips The summer kisses The sunburned hands I used to hold

Track 5 Bell Bottom Blues by Alma Cogan
I got the bell bottom blues 'Cause my sweetie is a sailor And he's sailin' somewhere on the sea I got the bell bottom blues 'Cause I'm crazy 'bout a sailor And I don't know when he's comin' back to me
I shake my head and refuse When the fellas come a-callin' And they want to take me on a date I got the bell bottom blues While the other girls are fallin' I just sit around the living room and wait!
I wonder if he's lookin' at The same moon I'm lookin' at Every night I'm lookin' at the moon I know that if he's praying for The same thing I'm praying for We'll be together soon!
I got the bell bottom blues Just a-waitin' for a letter Heaven knows I'm lonely as can be! I got the bell bottom blues And I won't be feeling better Till my sailor boy comes sailin' home to me

Track 7 We Plough The Fields And Scatter by Helen Beaumont
We plough the fields and scatter The good seed on the land But it is fed and watered By God's almighty hand He sends the snow in winter The warmth to swell the grain The breezes and the sunshine And soft, refreshing rain
All good gifts around us Are sent from heaven above Now thank the Lord O thank the Lord For all his love
He only is the maker Of all things near and far He paints the wayside flower He lights the evening star The winds and waves obey him By him the birds are fed Much more to us, his children He gives our daily bread
All good gifts around us Are sent from heaven above Then thank the Lord O thank the Lord For all his love
Cont…

We thank Thee, then, O Father For all things bright and good The seed time and the harvest Our life, our health, and food No gifts have we to offer For all Thy love imparts But that which Thou desirest Our humble, thankful hearts
All good gifts around us Are sent from heaven above Then thank the Lord O thank the Lord For all his love
Track 8 Goodbye Dolly Grey by Florrie Forde
Goodbye Dolly I must leave you Though it breaks my heart to go Something tells me I am needed at the front to fight the foe See, the soldier boys are marching and I can no longer stay Hark I hear the bugle calling, goodbye Dolly Grey
I have come to say goodbye, Dolly Grey It's no use to ask me why, Dolly Grey There's a murmur in the air, you can hear it everywhere It is time to do and dare, Dolly Grey
Goodbye Dolly I must leave you Though it breaks my heart to go Something tells me I am needed at the front to fight the foe See, the soldier boys are marching and I can no longer stay Hark I hear the bugle calling, goodbye Dolly Grey

Track 9 Did You Ever See A Dream Walking? by Bing Crosby
Something very strange and mystic happened to me Something realistic and as weird as can be Something that I feared, somehow is now endeared to me And what a funny feeling, odd and yet so true Did a thing like this ever happen to you?
Did you ever see a dream walking? Well, I did Did you ever hear a dream talking? Well, I did Did you ever have a dream thrill you with, "Will you be mine?" Oh, it's so grand and it's too too divine
Did you ever see a dream dancing? Well, I did Did you ever see a dream romancing? Well, I did Did you ever see heaven right in your arms? Saying, "I love you I do" Well the dream that was walking and the dream that was talking And the heaven in my arms was you
Track 10 Hey There by Rosemary Clooney
Hey there, you with the stars in your eyes Love never made a fool of you You used to be too wise
Hey there, you on that high flyin’ cloud Though he won't throw a crumb to you You think someday he'll come to you
Better forget him, him with his nose in the air He has you dancin’ on a string Break it and he won't care
Won't you take this advice I hand you like a mother Or are you not seeing things too clear Are you too much in love to hear Is it all goin’ in one ear and out the other

Track 12 I Can’t Stop Loving You by Don Gibson
I can't stop loving you So I've made up my mind To live in memory Of old lonesome times
I can't stop wanting you It's useless to say So I'll just live my life In dreams of yesterday
Those happy hours that we once knew So long ago, they still make me blue They say that time, it heals a broken heart But time has stood still since we've been apart
I can't stop loving you I've made up my mind To live in memories Of old lonesome times
Track 13 Mull Of Kintyre by Foster & Allen
Mull of Kintyre, oh mist rolling in from the sea My desire, is always to be here Oh Mull of Kintyre
Far have I travelled and much have I seen Dark distant mountains with valleys of green Past painted deserts, the sunsets on fire As you carry me home to the Mull of Kintyre
Mull of Kintyre, oh mist rolling in from the sea My desire, is always to be here Oh Mull of Kintyre
Sweep through the heather like deer in the glen Carry me back to the days I knew then Nights when we sang like a heavenly choir Of the life and the times of the Mull of Kintyre
Mull of Kintyre, oh mist rolling in from the sea My desire, is always to be here Oh Mull of Kintyre

Track 16 Memories Are Made Of This by Dean Martin
Sweet sweet, memories you gave me You can’t beat, the memories you gave me
Take one fresh and tender kiss Add one stolen night of bliss One girl, one boy Some grief, some joy Memories are made of this Don't forget a small moonbeam Fold in lightly with a dream Your lips and mine Two sips of wine Memories are made of this
Then add the wedding bells One house where lovers dwell Three little kids for the flavor Stir carefully through the days See how the flavor stays These are the dreams you will savor
With His blessings from above Serve it generously with love One man, one wife One love through life Memories are made of this Memories are made of this
Track 17 Hole In The Ground by Bernard Cribbins
There I was, a-digging this hole A hole in the ground, so big and sort of round it was And there was I, digging it deep It was flat at the bottom and the sides were steep When along, comes this bloke in a bowler Which he lifted and scratched his head Well he looked down the hole Poor demented soul and he said
Do you mind if I make a suggestion? Don't dig there, dig it elsewhere You’re digging it round and it ought to be square The shape of it's wrong, it's much too long And you can't put a hole where a hole don't belong
[I ask, what a liberty eh? Nearly bashed him right in the bowler]
Well there was I, stood in me hole Shovelling earth for all that I was worth I was There was him, standing up there So grand and official with his nose in the air So I gave him a look sort of sideways and I leaned on my shovel and sighed Well I lit me a fag and having took a drag I replied
I just couldn't bear, to dig it elsewhere I'm digging it round ‘cause I don't want it square And if you disagree it doesn't bother me That's the place where the hole’s gonna be
Well there we were, discussing this hole A hole in the ground so big and sort of round it was It's not there now, the ground's all flat And beneath it is the bloke in the bowler hat
And that's that
Track 18 Maybe It’s Because I’m A Londoner by Bud Flanagan
Maybe it’s because I’m a Londoner That I love London so Maybe it’s because I’m a Londoner That I think of her wherever I go
I get a funny feeling inside of me Just walking up and down Maybe its because I’m a Londoner That I love London Town
Maybe it’s because I’m a Londoner That I love London so Maybe it’s because I’m a Londoner That I think of her wherever I go
I get a funny feeling inside of me Just walking up or down Maybe it’s because I’m a Londoner That I love London Town
Track 19 Mr. Sandman by The Chordettes
Mr. Sandman, bring me a dream Make him the cutest that I've ever seen Give him two lips like roses and clover Then tell him that his lonesome nights are over
Sandman, I’m so alone Don’t have nobody to call my own Please turn on your magic beam Mr. Sandman, bring me a dream
Mr. Sandman, bring me a dream Make him the cutest that I've ever seen Give him the word that I'm not a rover Then tell him that his lonesome nights are over
Sandman, I'm so alone Don't have nobody to call my own Please turn on your magic beam Mr. Sandman, bring me a dream
Mr. Sandman (Yes?) bring us a dream Give him a pair of eyes with a "come-hither" gleam Give him a lonely heart like Pagliacci And lots of wavy hair like Liberace
Mr. Sandman, someone to hold (someone to hold) Would be so peachy before we're too old So please turn on your magic beam Mr. Sandman, bring us, please, please, please Mr. Sandman, bring us a dream
Track 20 I Know Where I’m Going by The Weavers
I know where I'm going And I know who's going with me I know who I love And my dear knows who I'll marry
Well I have stockings of silk And shoes of bright green leather Combs to buckle my hair And a ring for every finger
Feather beds are soft And painted rooms are bonny But I would trade them all For my handsome winsome Johnny

Track 24 My Little Welsh Home by Ivor Emmanuel
I am dreaming of the mountains of my home Of the mountains where in childhood I would roam I have dwelt ‘neath southern skies Where the summer never dies But my heart is in the mountains of my home
I can see the little homestead on the hill I can hear the magic music of the Rhyl There is nothing to compare With the love that once was there In that lonely little homestead on the hill
I can see that little homestead on the hill I can hear the magic music of the Rhyl There is nothing to compare With the love that once was there In that lonely little homestead on the hill
Track 25 On Mother Kelly’s Doorstep by Barbara Windsor
On Mother Kelly's doorstep Down Paradise Row I sit alonga Nellie She sits alonga Joe She's got a little hole in her frock Hole in her shoe Hole in her sock where her toe peeps through But Nellie was the smartest down our alley
On Mother Kelly's doorstep I'm wondering now If little girl Nellie Remembers Joe, her beau And does she love him like she used to On Mother Kelly's doorstep Down Paradise Row?
She's got a little hole in her frock Hole in her shoe Hole in her sock where her toe peeps through But Nellie was the smartest down our alley
On Mother Kelly's doorstep I'm wondering now If little girl Nellie Remembers Joe, her beau And does she love him like she used to On Mother Kelly's doorstep Down Paradise Row?
On Mother Kelly's doorstep Down Paradise Row
Track 26 He’ll Have To Go by Jim Reeves
Whisper to me tell me do you love me true Or is he holding you the way I do Though love is blind make up your mind I've got to know Should I hang up or will you tell him he'll have to go
You can't say the words I want to hear While you're with another man Do you want me answer ‘yes’ or ‘no’ Darling I will understand
Put your sweet lips a little closer to the phone Let's pretend that we're together all alone I'll tell the man to turn the juke box way down low And you can tell your friend there with you he'll have to go
Track 27 If I Loved You by Shirley Jones & Gordon MacRae
If I loved you Time and again I would try to say All I'd want you to know
If I loved you Words wouldn't come in an easy way Round in circles I'd go
Longin' to tell you but afraid and shy I'd let my golden chances pass me by
Soon you'd leave me Off you would go in the mist of day Never, never to know How I loved you, if I loved you
Track 28 An Ordinary Copper by Jack Warner
[Spoken]……. "Y'know, before I was a sergeant at Dock Green I was an ordinary copper And now I'd like to finish with our theme song just to remind me, and you Of those happy days when I was on the beat"
I'm an ordinary copper who's patrolling his beat Around Dock Green 'Hello, Mister Dixon!' shout the kids in the street Around Dock Green The C.I.D. are always in the headlines But I prefer the ordinary scene As an ordinary copper who's patrolling his beat Around Dock Green
Now I've been in the police force for a long time More years than I care to think about Sergeants come and go and inspectors come and go But I'll stay on until they kick me out I like the people I meet everyday As I go quietly whistling on my way
The teddy boys ain't partial to my company They don't like all their capers to be seen By an ordinary copper who's patrolling his beat Around Dock Green
Track 29 The Hippopotamus Song by Flanders & Swann
[Speech]
A bold Hippopotamus was standing one day On the banks of the cool Shalimar He gazed at the bottom as it peacefully lay By the light of the evening star Away on a hilltop, sat combing her hair His fair Hippopotami maid The Hippopotamus was no ignoramus And sang her this sweet serenade:
Mud, Mud, glorious mud Nothing quite like it for cooling the blood! So follow me, follow Down to the hollow And there let us wallow In glorious mud
The fair Hippopotama he aimed to entice From her seat on that hilltop above As she hadn't got a Ma to give her advice Came tiptoeing down to her love Like thunder the forest re-echoed the sound Of the song that they sang when they met His inamorata adjusted her garter And lifted her voice in duet
[Chorus in Russian]
[Speech] That should improve our cultural relations!
Cont...
Cont...
The bold Hippopotami began to convene On the banks of that river so wide I wonder, now, what am I to say of the scene That ensued by the Swhalimar side? They dived all at once, with an ear-splitting splosh Then rose to the surface again A regular army of Hippopotami All singing this haunting refrain:
Mud, Mud, glorious mud Nothing quite like it for cooling the blood So follow me, follow Down to the hollow And there let us wallow In glorious mud!
Track 30 Paddy McGinty’s Goat by Val Doonican
Now Patrick McGinty, an Irishman of note Fell in for a fortune, and he bought himself a goat Says he, "Sure, of goat's milk I’m gonna to have me fill!" But when he brought a Nanny home, he found it was a Bill
All the ladies who live in Killaloo They’re all wearing bustles like their mothers used to do They each wear a bolster beneath their petticoats And leave the rest to Providence and Paddy McGinty's goat!
Mrs Burke to her daughter said, "Listen, Mary Jane Who was the lad you were cuddling in the lane? He'd long wiry whiskers all hanging from his chin" "Twas only Pat McGinty's goat" she answered with a grin
Then she went away from the village in disgrace She came back with powder and paint upon her face She'd rings on her fingers, and she wore a sable coat You bet your life she didn’t get those from Paddy McGinty's goat
Now Norah McCarthy the knot was going to tie She washed out her trousseau and hung it out to dry Along came the goat and he saw the bits of white And chewed up all her falderals, and on her wedding night
"Oh turn out the light quick!" she shouted out to Pat “For though I'm your bride, sure I'm not worth looking at I had two of everything, I told you when I wrote But now I've one of nothing, all thro' Paddy McGinty's goat”

Mickey Riley he went to the races t'other day He won twenty dollars and he shouted, "Hip Hooray!" He held up the note, shouting "Look at what I've got!" The goat came up and grabbed at it and he swallowed up the lot
"He's eaten my banknote," says Mickey, with the hump They went for the doctor, and they got a stomach pump They pumped and they pumped for that twenty dollar note But all they got was ninepence out of Paddy McGinty's goat
Now old Paddy's goat had a wondrous appetite And one day for breakfast he ate some dynamite A big box of matches he swallowed all serene And then out he went and gobbled up a quart of paraffin
He sat by the fireside, he didn't give a hang He swallowed a spark and exploded with a bang So if you go to heaven you can bet a dollar note That the angel with the whiskers on is Paddy McGinty's goat
Track 31 Be My Life’s Companion by Rosemary Clooney
Be my life's companion, and you'll never grow old I'll love you so much that you'll never grow old When there's joy in living, you just never grow old You've got to stay young, 'cause you'll never grow old
