While Shepherds watched their flocks by

night
All seated on the ground
The Angel of the Lord came down
And glory shone around

Same music,
different
words

Fear not, said he, for mighty dread

Had seized their troubled minds
Glad tidings of great joy I bring
To you, and all mankind

Same music,
different
words

To you, in Davids town this day,

Is born of Davids line
A Saviour, who is Christ the Lord
And this shall be the sign

The heavenly babe you there shall find

Same music,
To human view displayed
different
All meanly wrapping in swaddling clothes
words
And in a manger laid

The night we met I knew I needed you so

And if I had the chance I'd never let you go
So won't you say you love me? I'll make you so proud of
me
We'll make 'em turn their heads every place we go
So won't you, please? (Be my, be my baby)
Be my little baby (My one and only baby)
Say you'll be my darlin (Be my, be my baby)
Be my baby now (My one and only baby)
Whoa oh oh oh
I'll make you happy, baby, just wait and see
For every kiss you give me, I'll give you three
Oh, since the day I saw you, I have been waiting for you
You know I will adore you 'til eternity
So won't you, please? (Be my, be my baby)
Be my little baby (My one and only baby)
Say you'll be my darlin (Be my, be my baby)Often
Be my baby now (My one and only baby) repeate

Whoa oh oh oh

When all the world is a hopeless jumble and the raindrops tumble all around
Heaven opens a magic lane
When all the clouds darken up the skyway there's a rainbow highway to be
found
Leading from your windowpane, to a place behind the sun, just a step
beyond the rain

Somewhere over the rainbow

Way up high,
There's a land that I heard of
Once in a lullaby.

Somewhere over the rainbow

Skies are blue,
And the dreams that you dare to
dream
Really do come true.
Someday I'll wish upon a star
And wake up where the clouds are far behind me.
Where troubles melt like lemon drops, away
above the chimney tops
That's where you'll find me.

Somewhere over the rainbow

Bluebirds fly.
Birds fly over the rainbow.
Why then, oh why can't I?
If happy little bluebirds fly beyond the
rainbow.
Why then, oh why can't I?

I see a little silhouetto of a man, Scaramouche! Scaramouche!

Will you do the Fandango?!
Beelzebub has a devil put aside for me, for me, for me!
So you think you can stop me and spit in my eye?!?!
So you think you can love me and leave me to die?!?!
Oh, baby, can't do this to me, baby,
Just gotta get out, just gotta get right outta here!
