Mamma mia by ABBA
Verse 1
I've been cheated by you since I don't know when
So I made up my mind, it must come to an end
Look at me now, will I ever learn
I don't know how, but I suddenly lose control
There's a fire within my soul
and I can hear a bell ring
(One more look) and I forget everything, whoa
Chorus
Mamma mia, here I go again
My, my, how can I resist you?
Mamma mia, does it show again
My, my, just how much I've missed you?
Yes, I've been brokenhearted
Blue since the day we parted
Why, why did I ever let you go?
Mamma mia, now I really know
My, my, I could never let you go
Verse 2
I've been angry and sad about things that you do
I can't count all the times that I've told you we're through
And when you go, when you slam the door
I think you know that you won't be away too long
You know that I'm not that strong
and I can hear a bell ring
(One more look) and I forget everything, whoa
Chorus
Molly Malone (traditional from Ireland)
VERSE 1
In Dublin's fair city
Where the girls are so pretty
I first set my eyes on sweet Molly Malone
As she wheeled her wheel-barrow
Through streets broad and narrow
Crying, "Cockles and mussels, alive, alive, oh!"
​
CHORUS
Alive, alive, oh; Alive, alive, oh
Crying "Cockles and mussels, alive, alive, oh"
​
VERSE 2
She was a fishmonger
And sure 'twas no wonder
For so were her father and mother before
And they both wheeled their barrows
Through streets broad and narrow
Crying, "Cockles and mussels, alive, alive, oh!"
​
CHORUS
​
VERSE 3
She died of a fever
And no one could save her
And that was the end of sweet Molly Malone
But her ghost wheels her barrow
Through streets broad and narrow
Crying, "Cockles and mussels, alive, alive, oh!"
​
CHORUS
Ob la di Ob la da by The Beatles
VERSE 1
Desmond has a barrow in the marketplace
Molly is the singer in a band
Desmond says to Molly, "Girl, I like your face"
And Molly says this as she takes him by the hand
CHORUS
Ob-la-di, ob-la-da
Life goes on, bra
La-la, how the life goes on
Ob-la-di, ob-la-da
Life goes on, bra
La-la, how the life goes on
​
VERSE 2
Desmond takes a trolley to the jeweler's store
Buys a twenty carat golden ring (rin-ring)
Takes it back to Molly waiting at the door
And as he gives it to her she begins to sing (sing)
​
CHORUS
​
BREAK
In a couple of years
They have built a home sweet home
With a couple of kids running in the yard
Of Desmond and Molly Jones (ha ha ha ha)
​
VERSE 3
Happy ever after in the market place
Desmond lets the children lend a hand
Molly stays at home and does her pretty face
And in the evening she still sings it with the band
​
CHORUS
BREAK
VERSE 3
CHORUS
Ob-la-di, ob-la-da
Life goes on, bra
La-la, how the life goes on
Ob-la-di, ob-la-da
Life goes on, bra
La-la, how the life goes on
And if you want some fun
Take Ob-la-di-bla-da
Octopus' Garden by The Beatles
VERSE 1
I'd like to be under the sea in an octopus's garden in the shade
He'd let us in, knows where we've been in his octopus's garden in the shade
I'd ask my friends to come and see An octopus's garden with me
I'd like to be under the sea in an octopus's garden in the shade
VERSE 2
We would be warm below the storm in our little hideaway beneath the waves
Resting our head on the sea bed in an octopus's garden near a cave
We would sing and dance around because we know we can't be found
I'd like to be under the sea in an octopus's garden in the shade
VERSE 3
We would shout and swim about the coral that lies beneath the waves
Oh what joy for every girl and boy knowing they're happy and they're safe
We would be so happy you and me No one there to tell us what to do
I'd like to be under the sea in an octopus's garden with you
Only you by Yazoo

Perfect by Ed Sheeran
VERSE 1
I found a love for me, Darling, just dive right in And follow my lead
Well, I found a girl, beautiful and sweet I never knew you were the someone waiting for me
'Cause we were just kids when we fell in love Not knowing what it was
I will not give you up this time
Darling, just kiss me slow, your heart is all I own And in your eyes, you're holding mine
CHORUS
Baby, I'm dancing in the dark with you between my arms
Barefoot on the grass, we're listenin' to our favorite song
When you said you looked a mess, I whispered underneath my breath
But you heard it, darling, you look perfect tonight
​
VERSE 2
Well, I found a woman, stronger than anyone I know
She shares my dreams, I hope that someday I'll share her home
I found a love, to carry more than just my secrets To carry love, to carry children of our own
​
We are still kids, but we're so in love Fightin' against all odds
I know we'll be alright this time
Darling, just hold my hand Be my girl, I'll be your man
I see my future in your eyes
​
CHORUS
Baby, I'm dancing in the dark, with you between my arms
Barefoot on the grass, listenin' to our favorite song
When I saw you in that dress, looking so beautiful
I don't deserve this, darling, you look perfect tonight
​
CHORUS
Baby, I'm dancing in the dark, with you between my arms
Barefoot on the grass, we're listenin' to our favorite song
I have faith in what I see Now I know I have met an angel in person
And she looks perfect No, I don't deserve this
You look perfect tonight
Proud Mary by CCR
VERSE 1
Left a good job in the city
Working for The Man every night and day
And I never lost one minute of sleeping
Worrying 'bout the way things might have been
Big wheel keep on turning
Proud Mary, keep on burning
​
CHORUS
Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river
​
VERSE 2
Cleaned a lot of plates in Memphis
Pumped a lot of pane down in New Orleans
But I never saw the good side of the city
Until I hitched a ride on a river boat queen
Big wheel keep on turning
Proud Mary, keep on burning
CHORUS
​
VERSE 3
If you come down to the river
Bet you gonna find some people who live
You don't have to worry, 'cause you have no money
People on the river are happy to give
Big wheel keep on turning
Proud Mary, keep on burning
CHORUS
Stand by me by B.E.King
VERSE 1
When the night has come, And the land is dark
And the moon is the only light we'll see
No I won't be afraid, Oh, I won't be afraid
Just as long as you stand, stand by me
CHORUS
So darling, darling, Stand by me, oh stand by me
Oh stand, stand by me, Stand by me
VERSE 2
If the sky that we look upon, Should tumble and fall
Or the mountain should crumble to the sea
I won't cry, I won't cry, No, I won't shed a tear
Just as long as you stand, stand by me
CHORUS
​
Sweet Child of mine by Guns'n Roses
VERSE 1
She's got a smile that it seems to me
Reminds me of childhood memories
Where everything was as fresh as the bright blue sky
Now and then when I see her face
She takes me away to that special place
And if I stare too long, I'd probably break down and cry
CHORUS
Whoa, oh, oh
Sweet child o' mine
Whoa, oh, oh, oh
Sweet love of mine
VERSE 2
She's got eyes of the bluest skies
As if they thought of rain
I'd hate to look into those eyes and see an ounce of pain
Her hair reminds me of a warm safe place
Where as a child I'd hide
And pray for the thunder and the rain to quietly pass me by
CHORUS
