Gershwin-Gershwin-Heyward
Summertime and the livin' is easy
Fish are jumpin' and the cotton is high
Your daddy's rich and your mother's good-lookin'
So hush, little baby, don't you cry.
One of these mornings you're gonna wake up singin'
Oh, you'll spread your wings, you're gonna take off and fly
But until that mornin' ain't nothin' in this world that's gonna hurt you
So hush, little baby, hush little baby, don't you cry, no no no no.
Your daddy's rich and your mother's good-lookin'
So hush, little baby, don't you cry
Hush, little baby, don't you cry
Hush, little baby, don't you cry
Hush, little baby, don't you cry.

I know something about love you've gotta want it bad
If that guy's got into your blood, go out and get him
If you want him to be the very heart of you
Make you want to breathe, here's the thing to do.
Tell him that you're never gonna leave him
Tell him that you're always gonna love him
Tell him, tell him, tell him, tell him right now.
I know something about love you gotta show him
And make him feel the moon up above, go out and get him
If you want him to make your heart sing out
If you want him to always think of you.
Tell him that you're never gonna leave him
Tell him that you're always gonna love him
Tell him, tell him, tell him, tell him right now.
Ever since the world began it's been that way for man
And women were created
To make love their destiny then why should true love be so complicated, oh yeah.
I know something about love you gotta take his hand
Show him what the world is made of, one kiss will prove it
If you want him to be always by your side
Take his hand tonight, swallow your foolish pride.
Tell him that you're never gonna leave him
Tell him that you're always gonna love him
Tell him, tell him, tell him, tell him right now.
Tell him that you're never gonna leave him
Tell him that you're always gonna love him
Tell him, tell him, tell him, tell him right now.

I'm leaving it all up to you
You decide what you gonna do
Now do you want my love
Or our we threw ?
That's what I'm leaving it up to you
You decide what you gonna do
Now do you want my love
Or our we threw ?
My heart in my hands
I, I don't understand
Baby, what, what have I done ?
I worship, I worship the ground that you walk on.
That's what I'm leaving it up to you
You decide what you gonna do
Now do you want my love
Or our we threw ?

When people say you're not my kind
And that your clothes are out of line
And that your hair isn't combed all the time
You're not real pretty but you're mine
We have a great big old society
That won't make room for folks like you and me
But I got some real bad news for them my friend
They're on the outside looking in
We've got a great thing going
And its gonna keep on growing
And I hope that real soon they'll see the light
But until that time they'll have to blow their mind
Cos it ain't us that's gonna lose this fight
So when we're walking I don't care
When all those people stop and stare
If they'd look in your eyes they'd see
You're not real pretty but you belong to me
Hey hey hey now
Hey hey hey now
When you're lovin' me baby
And when I hold you baby [When I kiss you]
I know you love me baby [When I hold you]
You know I'll never leave you [When I touch you]
I know I'll always love you [Every day now]
You know I love you baby
You know I love you baby

Oh, bring it to me, bring your sweet lovin', bring it on home to me
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Set me free, little girl
All you gotta do is set me free, little girl
You know you can do it if you try
All you gotta do is set me free, free, free, free.
Set me free, little girl
Why don't you let me be, little girl ?
You know you can do it if you try
All you gotta do is set me free, free, free, free.
I don't want no one if I can't have you to myself
I don't need no body else
So if I can't have you for myself
Set me free, set me free.
Set me free, little girl
Oh, why don't you let me be, little girl ?
You know you can do it if you try
All you gotta do is set me free, free, free, free.
I don't want no one if I can't have you to myself
I don't need no body else
So if I can't have you for myself
Set me free, set me free.
Set me free, little girl
All you gotta do is set me free, little girl
You know you can do it if you try
All you gotta do is set me free, free, free, free
Set me free, set me free
Let me be, set me free.

What now, my love, now that you've left me
How can I live through another day
Watching my dreams turning to ashes
And my hopes into bits of clay
Once I could see, once I could feel
Now I am numb, I've become unreal
I walk the night without a goal
Stripped of my heart, my soul
What now, my love, now that it's over
I feel the world closing in on me
Here come the stars tumbling around me
There's the sky where the sea should be
What now, my love, now that you've gone
I'd be a fool to go on and on
No one would care, no one would cry
If I should live or die
What now, my love, now there is nothing
Only my last goodbye
. . .

White
If it seems that I'm too quite
That's ‘cause I'm missing you
My bud tells me I have to fight it
But I can't help missing you.
Better leave me alone
Better leave me alone ..
Until I can think about you
Without feeling sorry for myself
You better leave me be
Till I don't need you any more
I don't want you need you again
Until I'm sure I'm over you.
Myself feeling tired and wondering
It's not like I thought it would be
Love just cannot end up running
My world shot from under me.
Mm, better leave me alone
Better leave me alone ..
Until I can think about you
Without feeling sorry for myself
You better leave me be
Till I don't need you any more
I don't want you need you again
Until I'm sure I'm over you.
Oh, oh.

I look for you because I didn't care
Because I went no where
That's why I look for you.
My state of mind was really out of line
And I caught me crying
That's why I look for you.
Yes, I look for you and all the things you do
The way you make me feel, that's why I look for you
That's why I held my hands up high
You could hear me, you could hear me cry.
I look for you until my dreams came true
Until I could feel
That you were real.
I look for you because you made my life
Because we're man and wife
That's why I look for you.
Yes, I look for you, for all the things you do
That's why I look for you
That's why I held my hands up high
You could hear me cry, that's why I look for you
Because you made my life, because we're man and wife
That's why I look for you
That's why I look for you, that's why I look for you
I didn't even care ‘cause I went no where
That's why I look for you.

Bono
Why can I be like any guy ?
Why do they try and make me run ? Son of a gun.
Now what do they care about the clothes I wear ?
Why get their kicks from making fun.
Yeah, this world's got a lot of space
And if they don't like my face
It ain't me that's going any where, no.
So I don't care then laugh at me
If that's so fair, I have to beg to be free
Then, baby, laugh at me and I'll cry for you
And I'll pray for you and I'll do all the things
That the man up stairs says to do
I'll do ‘em for you, I'll do ‘em, I'll do ‘em all for you
It's gotta start some place
It's gotta start some how
I'll make that other cheek mine
And maybe the next guy
That don't wear a silk tie
He can walk by and say hi
Say hi instead of why
Instead of why
Instead of why, babe
Instead of why
What did I do to you ?

Oooh ...
Where are you going, my little one, little one ?
Where are you going, my baby, my own ?
Turn around and you're two, turn around and you're four
Turn around and you're a young girl going out of the door.
Oooh ...
Where are you going, my little one, little one ?
Dresses and petticoats, where have they gone
Turn around and you're tiny, turn around and you're grown
Turn around and you're a young wife with babes of your own.
Turn around and you're tiny, turn around and you're grown
Turn around and you're a young wife with babes of your own.
Where are you going, my little one, little one ?
Where are you going, my baby, my own ?
Turn around and you're two, turn around and you're four
Turn around and you're a young girl going out of the door.
Turn around, turn around
Turn around, you're a young girl going out of the door.
