"So Long, Big Time!" lyrics
"So Long, Big Time!"
Bright lights are dimmer
Bank roll is slimmer
Looks like I’m down and done
Bye bye
I gotta run
Bye bye
So long, so long
Big time
So long, so long
Big time
I made it fine
I made it fast
That ain’t the sign
It has to last
Had it made for a while
In a highfalutin style
So long, so long
Big time
Big dough, bright lights
Big time
I won’t pretend I am
Glad its ended
It was fun
Now its done
But I’ll never sing
A loser’s song
So long big time
I gotta run
So long
Tell the chicks
And tell all the cronies
Lost it all on the cards
And the ponies
Tell the friends
And fair-weather phonies
Living high
Tell ‘em, “Bye”
And tell ‘em why
Lady Luck just gave me the brush off
So I’ll rush off
And try a new routine
I’m a guy who rolls with the punches
And my hunch is
Its time to quit the scene
Tell the kids
And tell all the cookies
Tell the babes
And tell all the bookies
That I knew
That I’m through
And when you do
Buy a few beers for me
Tell 'em no tears for me
So long, so long
Big time
Big dough, bright lights
Big time
Ain’t gonna grieve
‘Cause I must be leaving
It was funNow its done
But I’ll never sing
A loser’s song
So long big time
I gotta run
So long

Sammy Davis Jr. - "The Birth Of The Blues" Oh... they say my people long ago
Where lookin' for a different tune
One that we can croon
As only we can
We only had the rhythm
So, we started swingin' to and fro
We didn't know just what to use
But...
Bobby Darin - "How About You" I like New York in June
How about you?
I like a Gershwin tune
How about you?
I love a fireside
When a storm is due
I like potato chips an' moonlight an' motor trips
How about you?
I'm mad about...
Barbra Streisand - "Lost Inside Of You" Time has come again
And love is in the wind
Like some music in a dream
You made them all come true
When you came inside of my life
Now I'm lost inside of you
Lost in the music
And lost in your eyes...
Rod Stewart - "Have I Told You Lately" Have I told you lately that I love you
Have I told you there's no one else above you
You fill my heart with gladness
Take away all my sadness
Ease my troubles, that's what you do
For the morning sun...
Shirley Bassey - "(Where Do I Begin) Love Story" Where do I begin?
To tell the story of how great a love can be
The sweet love story that is older than the sea
The simple truth about the love he brings to me
Where do I start?
Like a summer rain...
