080. I Heard It Through the Grapevine by Marvin Gaye (1968)

I Heard It Through The Grapevine
Performed by Marvin Gaye

Oh, I bet you're wonderin' how I knew
But to your plans to make me blue
With some other guy you knew before
Between the two of us guys
You know I love you more
It took me be surprise I must say
When I found out yesterday
Don't you know
Instead I heard it through the grapevine
Not much longer would you be mine
Oh, I heard it through the grapevine
Oh, Im just about to lose my mind
Honey, honey
*I know a man ain't supposed to cry
But these tears I can't hold inside
Losing you would end my life you see
'Cause you mean that much to me
You could've told me yourself
That you love somebody else
Instead heard it through the grapevine
Not much longer would you be mine
Oh, I heard it through the grapevine
And I'm just about to lose my mind
Honey, honey yeah

People say 'Man you hurt from what you see
It's not what you hear
But I can't help being confused
If it's true, please tell me dear
Do you please let me go
For the other guy you loved before
Don't you know
I heard it through the grapevine
Not much longer would you be mine
Baby, I heard it through the grapevine
I'm just about to lose my mind
Honey, honey yeah........
(Repeat *)

079. Mr. Tambourine Man by The Byrds (1965)

Mr. Tambourine Man Lyrics

Written by Bob Dylan
Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, Play a song for me
I'm not sleepy and there ain't no place I'm going to
Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me
In the jingle jangle morning, I'll come followin' you
Take me for a trip upon your magic swirling ship
All my senses have been stripped
My hands can't feel to grip
My toes too numb to step
Wait only for my bootheels to be wandering
I'm ready to go anywhere, I'm ready for to fade
Into my own parade, cast your dancing spell my way
I promise to go under it
Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, Play a song for me
I'm not sleepy and there ain't no place I'm going to
Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me
In the jingle jangle morning, I'll come followin' you

078. I Got You (I Feel Good) by James Brown (1965)

Wo! I feel good, I knew that I wouldn't of
I feel good, I knew that I wouldn't of
So good, so good, I got you
Wo! I feel nice, like sugar and spice
I feel nice, like sugar and spice
So nice, so nice, I got you

When I hold you in my arms
I know that I can do no wrong
and when I hold you in my arms
My love won't do you no harm
and I feel nice, like sugar and spice
I feel nice, like sugar and spice
So nice, so nice, I got you

When I hold you in my arms
I know that I can't do no wrong
and when I hold you in my arms
My love can't do me no harm
and I feel nice, like sugar and spice
I feel nice, like sugar and spice
So nice, so nice, well I got you
Wo! I feel good, I knew that I wouldn't of
I feel good, I knew that I would
So good, so good, 'cause I got you
So good, so good, 'cause I got you
So good, so good, 'cause I got you

077. Mystery Train by Elvis Presley (1955)

(words & music by H. Parker - S. Philips)
Train arrived, sixteen coaches long
Train arrived, sixteen coaches long
Well that long black train got my baby and gone

Train train, coming 'round, 'round the bend
Train train, coming 'round the bend
Well it took my baby, but it never will again (no, not again)

Train train, coming down, down the line
Train train, coming down the line
Well it's bringin' my baby, 'cause she's mine all, all mine
(She's mine, all, all mine)

076. Strawberry Fields Forever by The Beatles (1967)

No one I think is in my tree, I mean it must be high or low.
That is you can't you know tune in but it's all right.
That is I think it's not too bad.

Let me take you down, 'cause I'm going to Strawberry Fields.
Nothing is real and nothing to get hung about.
Strawberry Fields forever.

Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see.
It's getting hard to be someone but it all works out.
It doesn't matter much to me.

Let me take you down, 'cause I'm going to Strawberry Fields.
Nothing is real and nothing to get hung about.
Strawberry Fields forever.

Always know sometimes think it's me, but you know I know and it's a dream.
I think I know of thee, ah yes, but it's all wrong.
That is I think I disagree.

Let me take you down, 'cause I'm going to Strawberry Fields.
Nothing is real and nothing to get hung about.
Strawberry Fields forever.
Strawberry Fields forever.
Strawberry Fields forever.

074. Superstition by Stevie Wonder (1972)

Superstition
(Stevie Wonder)

Very superstitious
Writing's on the wall
Very superstitious
Ladder's about to fall
Thirteen-month-old baby
Broke the looking glass
Seven years of bad luck
Good things in your past

If you believe in things that you don't understand
Then you suffer
Superstition ain't the way

Very superstitious
Wash your face and hands
Rid me of the problems
Do all that you can
Keep me in a daydream
Keep me going strong
You don't want to save me
Sad is my song

If you believe in things that you don't understand
Then you suffer
Superstition ain't the way

Very superstitious
Nothing more to say
Very superstitious
Devil's on his way
Thirteen-month-old baby
Broke the looking glass
Seven years of bad luck
Good things in your past

If you believe in things that you don't understand
Then you suffer
Superstition ain't the way

Superstition ain't the way...
Superstition ain't the way...
