Well the Magic Attic's where the music rolls
And the Army-Navy's got ol' Jackie Soul
Down on Peaches Corner there are Good Ol' Boys
And Mother Fletchers makin' lots of noise
They're dancin' shaggin' on the boulevard
Dancin' shaggin' on the boulevard

Well the Tams are playin' at the Port-O-Call
And the Drifters underneath the Boardwalk
At the Spanish Galleon and Ol' Fat Jacks
Jukebox playin' and the place is packed
You bet they're dancin' shaggin' on the boulevard
You know they're dancin' shaggin' on the boulevard

Got the top down and the traffic's slow
Sun Fun Week and we all go
Where the girls are sunnin' and a lookin' good
Well I never met 'em but I wish I could
And we'd go dancin' shaggin' on the boulevard
We'd go dancin' shaggin' on the boulevard

Well the Embers singin' up on Ocean Drive
And the Castaways are gettin' loud tonight
At the Electric Circus they all gettin' down
And the Carousel's spinnin' 'round and 'round
See them dancin' shaggin' on the boulevard
I see 'em dancin' shaggin' on the boulevard

Well I'm hangin out down at Sloppy Joes
They may doze but they never close
And the Bama Boys at the Bowery
They can't dance but they play for free
But they like dancin' shaggin' on the boulevard
They know dancin' shaggin' on the boulevard
They wrote dancin' shaggin' on the boulevard
Dancin' shaggin' on the boulevard
Dancin' shaggin' on the boulevard
Shaggin' on the boulevard
Dancin' shaggin' on the boulevard
Dancin' shaggin' on the boulevard

I thought that you could fly
I thought that you had wings
I guess that I believed
You'd never say goodbye
But my world stopped turnin' 'round
The stars turned upside down
It knocked me to the ground on my knees

Now there's a sad lookin' moon
Shinin' down on me
There's a sad lookin' sky
As far as I can see
I always believed
And I thought the stars could see
But there's a sad lookin' moon
Shinin' down on me

I shared with you my dreams
I gave you everything
I opened up my heart
And I gave you my ring
Well I spent days and nights
Just thinkin' about the time
When you would be mine all my life

Now there's a sad lookin' moon
Shinin' down on me
There's a sad lookin' sky
As far as I can see
I always believed
And I thought the stars could see
But there's a sad lookin' moon
Shinin' down on me

There's a sad lookin' moon
A sad lookin' moon
There's a sad lookin' moon
Shinin' down on me

She's still got those pretty eyes
Like she did in school
The first time that she looked at me
My heart went ka-boom
Today I saw that look again
On sale in summer square
She looked so good in what she wore
Somehow it don't seem fair

She's got that look in her eyes
Just like she's always had
She's got that smile on her lips
That always drives me mad
When she looks at me
The way I feel comes as no surprise
I love that look
When she's got that look in her eyes

Just today she looked at me
And I felt like a kid
Even though I'm grown up now
The puzzle seems to fit
I may never have her
But I'll still love her still
Oh I may never hold her
In my mind I always will

She's got that look in her eyes
Just like she's always had
She's got that smile on her lips
That always drives me mad
When she looks at me
The way I feel comes as no surprise
I love that look
When she's got that look in her eyes

When she looks at me
The way I feel comes as no surprise
I love that look
When she's got that look in her eyes

I've got sunshine
On a cloudy day
And when its cold outside girl
I've got the month of May
Oh I guess you'd say
What can make me feel this way
My girl, (my girl my girl) talkin' 'bout my girl
My girl

I've got so much honey
The bees envy me
I've got a sweeter song baby
Than the birds in the trees
Well I guess you'd say
What can make me feel this way
My girl, (my girl my girl) talkin' 'bout my girl
My girl

Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
I don't need no money
Fortune or fame
I've got all the riches baby
One man can claim
Well I guess you'd say
What can make me feel this way
My girl (my girl my girl) talkin' bout my girl
My girl talkin' 'bout my girl
On a cloudy day with my girl
I've even got the month of May with my girl
Talkin' 'bout talkin' 'bout my girl
Talkin' 'bout my girl

. . .


Why do you ask
Of course I'm alright
I guess I wasn't thinking
I'd run into you tonight
Do I seem surprised
I guess you caught me off guard
Yes I'm really doing fine
No it hasn't been that hard

How 'bout you
Getting on with your life
There's so much to tell you
That I won't even try
My, its good to see you
How long has it been
I must admit I think about you
Every now and then

Like when I open my eyes
When I lay down at night
Every moment ever since
The day you said goodbye
But you'll never know
'Ccause I keep it inside
How am I doing without you
Of course I'm alright

Well to tell you the truth
I guess I have felt better
God just look at you wow
You make it look so easy
I can see it on yout face
Everything we used to be
Is gone without a trace

If you wanna know
Right now I'm sinking fast
Girl you always could see
Right behind this mask
But I won't give it away
Gonna keep it inside
How am I doing without you
Of course I'm alright

If you don't want to know the truth
Of course I'm alright

. . .


You've got me achin'
More than I should
My heart is breakin'
Oh don't it feel good
'Cause I know for certain
We're magic in love
You've got me hurtin'
'Cause I can't get enough

I just couldn't say no
Even though I should
Even if I did
Wonder if you could
I just couldn't say no no
When your eyes say yes yes
I just can't say no
I've tried my best

The way you tease me
Makes me want you more
You purr like a kitten
But I hear you roar
Your body language
Is talkin' to me
Right here in the darkness
It's so plain to see

I just couldn't say no
Even though I should
Even if I did
Wonder if you could
I just couldn't say no no
When your eyes say yes yes
I just can't say no
I've tried my best
I just can't say no

I just couldn't say no no
When your eyes say yes yes
I just can't say no
I've tried my best
I just can't say no
I've tried my best

I just couldn't say no

Is the magic still there whenever I hold you
Do these lips of mine send chills down your spine
Like they used to
Or is it slipping away
Baby come out and say
I'm asking because I care
I just need to know is the magic still there

Oh I still recall our first time together
Oh we kissed and we touched
We couldn't get enough of each other
And when we said goonight
Beneath that old porch light
It left us wanting more
But I'm wondering now if time has somehow
Changed what we felt before

Is the magic still there whenever I hold you
Do these lips of mine send chills down your spine
Like they used to
Or is it slipping away
Baby come out and say
I'm asking because I care
I just need to know is the magic still there

Am I still the one that you daydream of
When we turn out the light
Is there fire in the night when we make love
Don't want to take you for granted
So baby I'm askin' only because I care
I just want to know

Is the magic still there whenever I hold you
Do these lips of mine send chills down your spine
Like they used to
Or is it slipping away
Baby come out and say
I'm asking because I care
I just need to know is the magic still there
Is the magic still there
Is the magic still there

Calling, calling all angels
Oh I'm calling, calling all angels

The night was still, the moon was bright
When he saw a distant light
So he started walkin' till he found
A church outside of town
And he stumbled in and closed the door
Said why I'm here, I'm not sure
It's my baby that I'm lookin' for
Can't she see I'm down on my knees

I've been calling, calling all angels
Bring my baby back
Oh you must know where she's at
Tell me what to do
I know she's one of you
I'm down on my knees, tell her please
That I love her so

Tell me preacher, man to man
Will you do all that you can
I've done wrong, this I know
And I really hurt her so
It's a lonely world I'm livin' in
An ocean of tears I been cryin'
In this greatest hour of need
What can be done for a fool like me

Oh, I'm calling, calling all angels
Bring my baby back
Oh you must know where she's at
Yes I've been a fool
And I know that she's one of you
Now do this for me, tell her please

And if she's lonely
I'll make her understand
That these arms can carry
Both of us back to heaven again

Yes I've been a fool
And I know that she's one of you
Do this for me
Tell her please

Calling, calling all angels
Hear me calling, calling all angels
Oh I'm calling, calling all angels
Hear me calling, calling all angels
Oh I'm calling, calling all angels
Hear me calling, calling all angels
Oh I'm calling, calling all angels

. . .


Hey hey baby
I wanna know if you'll be my girl
Hey hey baby
I wanna know if you'll be my girl

When I saw you walking down the street
I said that's the kind of girl I'd like to meet
She's so pretty Lord she's fine
I'm gonna make her mine all mine
Hey hey baby
I wanna know if you'll be my girl

When you turned and walked away
That's when I want to say now
Come on baby give me a whirl
I wanna know if you'll be my girl
Hey hey baby
I wanna know if you'll be my girl

When you turned and walked away
That's when I wanna say
Come on baby give me a whirl
I wanna know if you'll be my girl
Hey hey baby
I wanna know if you'll be my girl
Hey hey baby
I wanna know if you'll be my girl
Hey hey hey hey baby
I wanna know if you'll be my girl

Well it's concrete and asphalt
Drivin' into work every day
This livin' can't be healthy
But the Lord knows I got bills to pay
And there's others here just like me
They got families to feed

One more time around (time around)
On the job is where I'll be found
One more time around (time around)
Earn my pay and hear that whistle sound

Well thunder and lighting
It don't matter, nothin' stops the clock
The radios are blastin'
Mine is playin' country some play rock
The rhythm and blues of the workplace
We take pride in everything we make

One more time around (time around)
On the job is where I'll be found
One more time around (time around)
Earn my pay and hear that whistle sound

Five o'clock is comin'
We're all racin' down the same track
Life is a circle
Sometimes we meet ourselves comin' back

Well one more time around (time around)
On the job is where I'll be found
One more time around (time around)
Earn my pay and hear that whistle sound

One more time around
Time around, time around
Time around, time around
Time around, time around
Time around
