My Wild Irish Rose...

(my "lil gramma's" favorite song, and dedicated to someone important to me)
written by Chauncey Olcott

If you'll listen, I'll sing you a sweet little song,
Of a flower that's now drooped and dead,
Yet dearer to me, yes, than all of its mates,
Tho' each holds aloft its proud head.
'Twas given to me by a girl that I know,
Since we've met, faith, I've known no repose,
She is dearer by far than the world's brightest star,
And I call her my wild Irish Rose.
My wild Irish Rose,
The sweetest flow'r that grows,
You may search ev'rywhere,
But none can compare
With my wild Irish Rose.
My wild Irish Rose,
The dearest flow'r that grows,
And some day for my sake,
She may let me take
The bloom from my wild Irish Rose.

They may sing of their roses which, by other names,
Would smell just as sweetly, they say,
But I know that my Rose would never consent
To have that sweet name taken away.
Her glances are shy when e'er I pass by
The bower, where my true love grows;
And my one wish has been that some day I may win
The heart of my wild Irish Rose.
My wild Irish Rose,
The sweetest flow'r that grows,
You may search ev'rywhere,
But none can compare
With my wild Irish Rose.
My wild Irish Rose,
The dearest flow'r that grows,
And some day for my sake,
She may let me take
The bloom from my wild Irish Rose.

Don't Play That Song For Me -- Aretha Franklin

Don't play that song for me
Cause it brings back memories
Of days that I once knew
Those days that I spent with you
Oh no don't leave me
Cause it fills up my heart with pain
So please stop it right away
Cause I remember just what he said

He said, "Darling I love you"
But I know that he lied
"Darling I need you"
Know that he lied
"Darling I love you"
Darling you lied
You lied
You lied
To me

Hey mister!
Don't play no more
Don't play it no more
I can't stand it
Don't play it no more
No more, no more
No more I can't stand it

I remember on our first date
He kissed me and he walked away
I was only 17
I never dreamed he'd be so mean

He told me Darling
"Darling I love you"
But baby baby you lied
"Darling I need you"
You lied
"Darling I love you"
Darling you lied
You lied
Lied
You lied
To me

"Darling I love you"
But I know that you lied
"Darling I need you"
I know that you lied
"Darling I love you"
Darling you lied
You lied
Lied you lied
Lied to me and hurt me
You lied
Don't play it no more
Don't do it
Don't play it no more
Cause I can't stand it no more
