Tom Jones Lyrics

16 Tons lyrics - Tom Jones

(originally by Merle Travis)

[1vsl]

Some people say a man is made out of mud well a poor man's made outta

muscle and blood..Muscle and blood and skin and bone..and a mind

that's weak..but a back thats strong.

[2vs]

And he was born one morning when the sun didn't shine..

He picked up his shovel and he went to the mines

He loaded 16 tons of that number 9 coal..Til-

the Straw boss said Well-uh b-less my soul!

[CHR]

You load 16 tons and whaddaya get??

another day older and deeper in dept

Saint Peter don'tcha call me 'Cause-

I can't go...I owe my soul to the Company

Store

[3vs]

So if you see him coming..you better step aside,-

Alot of men didn't and alot of men died.

He's got one fist of iron, and the other of

steel..And if the right one doesn't get you..

Then the night one will...

[CHR]

A Boy From Nowhere lyrics - Tom Jones

(from "Matador" soundtrack)

The nights grow cold

My search for gold is leading nowhere

Whichever lonely road I take

It seems to go nowhere

It's a fight to survive just until tomorrow

How can I display what I know I'm worthy of

When they turn me away

The doors are closed to such as I

A boy from nowhere

But not to those who merely buy the right to go where

They'll be met with respect, not humiliation

A man's place on earth

I have come to realize is decided by birth

So what's the future

No matter where I go

I will still belong in Andalusia

Where we don't know where

The next penny's coming from

Something's wrong

I'm bound to Spain, I won't remain

A boy from nowhere

There has to be a place for me

And I must go there

I don't fantasize, unlike a million others

Who must bow and scrape

For my one means of escape

Is to flourish a cape

I'll fight all odds

And fight the Gods if they oppose me

I have to win, I won't give in

No one who knows me would expect me to fail

For the want of trying

Not a man alive

Had to beg or steal or fight

More than me to survive

So what's the future

No matter where I go

I will still belong in Andalusia

Where good, honest men grow weak

And the rich grow strong

Something's wrong

Another dawn, another boy

A boy from nowhere

My destiny will guarantee

And I must go there

It's a fight to survive just until tomorrow

One more mouth to feed

And the way things are 'round here

That's the last thing they need

Ain't No Love lyrics - Tom Jones

There ain't no love like the love I got

There ain't no love at all like the love I got for you

And there ain't no pain, baby, like the pain I get

There ain't no pain at all, like I get when you're away

Nothing else could beat it, such a feeling, I'm reborn

Nothing seems to matter, now my love for you is strong

I'm finding my direction, but I'm losing my control

Love has taken over and you're in my very soul

There ain't no love at all like the love I got for you

Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby

It's true, what can I do? Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby

There ain't no love like the love I got

I said there ain't no love at all like the love I got for you

Then there ain't no pain, baby, like the pain I get

There ain't no pain at all, like I get when you're away

Nothing else could beat it, such a feeling, I'm reborn

Nothing seems to matter, now my love for you is strong

There ain't no love at all like the love I got for you

There ain't no love at all, baby, like the love I got for you

Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby

It's true, what can I do?

Baby, baby, baby, there ain't no love at all like the love I got for you

Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby

All That I Need Is Some Time lyrics - Tom Jones

Girl, it hurts so bad

Cause there's something on my mind

Since we had that quarrel

And you walked out of my life

And you called and you said you couldn't live without me anymore

Baby, all that I need is some time

I've just got to get straight in my mind

And think it over, perhaps we'll find

It's not over

To think you said the things

You knew would surely break my heart

It's seems like only yesterday

That we swore we'd never part

I still can't believe you say that you don't love me anymore

Baby, all that I need is some time

I've just got to get straight in my mind

And I'll keep praying all of the time

I still love you

I still can't believe you'd ever say you don't love me anymore

Baby, all that I need is some time

I've just got to get straight in my mind

And I keep praying all of the time

I still love you

All that I need is some time

I've just got to get straight in my mind

And I'll keep praying all of the time

I still love you

Any Day Now lyrics - Tom Jones

Any day now

I will hear you say

Goodbye my love

And you be on your way

And my wild beautiful bird

You will have flown

Any day now

Love will let me down

Any day now, when your restless eyes

Meet someone new and to my sad surprise

And the blue shadows will fall all over town, yeah

Any day now

Love will let me down

I know I shouldn't want to keep you

If you don't wanna stay, yeah

Yeah, until you've gone forever

I'll be holding on to my life

Holding you this way

I'm begging you to stay

Any day now when the clock strikes go

You'll call it off, oh yes, you will

And then my tears will flow

And the blue shadows will fall all over town

Any day now

Love will let me down

And you won't be around

Don't fly away, my beautiful bird

I don't want you to fly away

City Girl lyrics - Tom Jones

Living in a small town

Nothing much to do

All I do is walk around

Missing you

You've become a city girl

And lead the city life

Forgetting how you thrilled me

Through the night

City girl, city girl

What am I to do

It really is a pity girl

Knowing that we're through

City girl, now, city girl

Now come on home

It's me you have to pity girl

I'm all alone

I'm so, I'm so alone

I'm so alone

Living in a small town has left me with the blues

Knowing that I've got a lot, a lot to lose

You've become a city girl and left me with the past

I wonder how much longer it will last

City girl, city girl

I can't believe we're through

It would be such a pity girl

If I were losing you

City girl, now, city girl

Change your mind

It's me you have to pity girl

Please be kind

Oh, won't you please be kind

Yeah, yeah, now won't you be kind

You gotta be nice to me baby

Day By Day lyrics - Tom Jones

As my heart gets fonder, day by day

So my love gets stronger, day by day

Your love I'd leave behind if a better love I could find

But you're still on my mind, day by day

(Write to her) I know I should

(Speak to hear) I wish I could

But I'm misunderstood, day by day

Don't you ever leave me, this I say

Soon you're gonna need me, come what may

My love is deep inside, so don't you ever heart my pride

This love I cannot hide, day by day

(Write to her) I know I should

(Speak to hear) I wish I could

But I'm misunderstood, day by day

(Write to her) I know I should, baby

(Speak to hear) You know I wish I could

I'm misunderstood, day by day

Shake it, honey

I've got to get the pen and paper in my hand

But I wouldn't know what to talk about

You wouldn't listen anyway

Every Mile lyrics - Tom Jones

Every mile I made down

Every lonely highway

Each and every byway

You're still on my mind

And every step I take

Only leads to nowhere

No one that I know there

Nothing at home to find

Every hour away

Seems more like a day

Every day seems to last

Forever

And every night I dream

That we are back together

Vowing that we'll never

Be apart again

How real it all can seem

But then I awaken

With that same old aching

In my heart again

Crying, "I will come to you

If you every call

If I have to crawl

Every mile"

Fever lyrics - Tom Jones

Never know how much I love you

Never know how much I care

When you put your arms around me

I get a fever that's so hard to bear

You give me fever

When you kiss me

Fever when you hold me tight

Fever in the morning

Fever all through the night

Sun lights up the daytime

And moon lights up the night

I light up when you call my name

And you know I'm gonna treat you right

You give me fever

When you kiss me

Fever when you hold me tight

Fever in the morning

And fever all through the night

Everybody's got the fever

That is something you all know

Fever isn't such a new thing

Fever started long ago

Romeo loved Juliette

Juliette she felt the same

When he put his arms around her he said

"Julie, Baby , you're my flame"

Thou giveth fever

When we kisseth

Fever with thy flaming youth

Fever, I'm afire

Fever, yeah, I burn, forsooth

Captain Smith and Pocahontas had a very mad affair

When her daddy tried to kill him

She said

"Daddy, oh, don't you dare!"

He gives me fever

With his kisses

Fever when he holds me tight

Fever! I'm his misses

So, daddy, won't you treat him right?

Now you've listened to my story

Here's the point that I have made

Chicks were born to give you fever

Be it Fahrenheit or Centigrade

They give you fever

When you kiss them

Fever if you live and learn

Fever 'till you sizzle

What a lovely way to burn

For Once In My Life lyrics - Tom Jones

For once in my life I have someone who needs me

Someone I've needed so long

For once, unafraid, I can go where life leads me

And somehow I know I'll be strong

For once I can touch what my heart used to dream of long before I knew

Someone warm, like you would make my dream come true

For once in my life I won't let sorrow hurt me

Not like it's hurt me before

For once I have something I know won't desert me

I'm not alone anymore

For once I can say this is mine, you can take it

Long as I know I got love, I can make it

For once in my life I have someone who needs me

For once in my life I won't let sorrow hurt me

Not like it's hurt me before

For once I have something I know won't desert me

I'm not alone anymore

For once I can say this is mine, you can take it

Long as I know I got love, I can make it

For once I can feel that somebody's heard my plea

Yeah, for once in my life I have someone who needs me

Funny How Times Slips Away lyrics - Tom Jones

Well, hel-lo there-

My it's been a long, long time.

How'm I do-in?

Oh I guess that I'm doin' fine.

It's been so long now

And it seems that it was on-ly yes-ter-day.

Gee, ain't it funny

How time slips away.

How's your new love

I hope that he's doin' fine.

Heard you told him

Thaat you'd love him till the end of time.

Now, that's the same thing that you told me,

Seems like just the other day

Gee, ain't it funny how time slips away.

Gotta go now,

Guess I'll see you around,

Don't know when tho',

Never know when I'll be back in town.

But remember what I tell you

That in time you're gonna pay

And it's surprising how time slips away.

Ghosts Riders In The Sky lyrics - Tom Jones

An old cowpoke went ridin' out one dark and windy day,

Upon a ridge he rested as he went along his way

When all at once a mighty herd of red eyed cows he saw

Come rushin' through the ragged skies and up a cloudy draw.

Yipie i ay Yipie i oh

Ghost riders in the sky

Their brands were still on fire and their hooves were made of steel

Their horns were black and shiny and their hot breath you could feel

A bolt of fear went through him as they thundered through the sky

He saw the riders coming hard... and he heard their mournful cry

Yipie i ay Yipie i oh

Ghost riders in the sky.

Their face is gaunt their eyes were blurred their shirts all soaked

with sweat

They're ridin' hard to catch that herd but they 'aint caught 'em yet

'cause they've got to ride forever in the range up in the sky

On horses snorting fire as they ride hard hear them cry

Yipie i ay Yipie i oh

Ghost riders in the sky.

The riders leaned on by him he heard one call his name

If you want to save your soul from hell a riding on our range

Then cow-boy change your ways today or with us you will ride

Tryin' to catch this devil herd.... a-cross these endless

skies.

Yipie i ay Yipie i oh

Ghost riders in the sky.

Golden Days lyrics - Tom Jones

Golden day, come and play

Bring your fair lady

Make a ring, come and sing

When you are ready

Kiss her hand, kiss her cheek

Tell her you love her

When it's your turn to speak

Give her your favor

Golden days, yesterdays

And I don't know why

I can't hear you

The dream has gone

But till I die

The golden day goes on

Catch a girl, kiss a girl

One day you'll marry

Smile in your mirror and

You will seem happy

Pick the chain, start again

From the beginning

When the rain goes away

Sun will be shining

Golden days, yesterdays

And I don't know why

I can't see you

The dream has gone

But till I die

The golden day goes on

Golden day, come and play

Bring your fair lady

Make a ring, come and sing

When you are ready

Kiss her hand, kiss her cheek

Tell her you love her

When it's your turn to speak

Give her your favor

Goodbye, God Bless You lyrics - Tom Jones

Last night when I got home

I found a message by the telephone

It said, "I'm sorry but you're on your own

Goodbye, God bless you, baby"

And last night, I think you know

I miss your smiling face, your soft hello

But I can't blame you if you had to go

Goodbye, God bless you, baby

Couldn't help but see your sad brown eyes

Monday morning smile is no disguise

And you just couldn't hide the way you felt inside

You wanted so to make it

But in the end you couldn't fake it

And last night when I got home

I found a message by the telephone

It said, "I'm sorry but you're on your own

Goodbye, God bless you, baby"

And last night, I think you know

I miss your smiling face, your soft hello

But I can't blame you if you had to go

Goodbye, God bless you, baby

Heaven knows you tried, you really tried

Did your level best to make it right

And you put up with all my cruel, senseless lies

And lately, girl, I knew it

And I could see you going through it

And last night when I got home

I found a message by the telephone

It said, "I'm sorry but you're on your own

Goodbye, God bless you, baby"

And last night, I think you know

I miss your smiling face, your soft hello

But I can't blame you if you had to go

Goodbye, God bless you, baby

Guess You Know Me Girl lyrics - Tom Jones

No one knows me better

Right down to the letter

You've got a picture of my soul

You know all about me

The first and the last to doubt

You know me girl

Sometimes God forsaken

Liberties I've taken

I confess and you forgive

You're the reason that I live

I guess you know me girl

Sunshine warmin' my soul

Livin' your own sweet way

Lovin' the night away

Hold on sunshine

Never let go, no, that would throw me girl

I need the tenderness you show me girl

I guess you know me girl

No one knows me better

Right down to the letter

You've got a picture of my soul

You know all about me

The first and the last to doubt

You know me girl

Through me share of losin'

Years of back door usin'

When our luck was runnin' low

If you cried I didn't know

You never let it show

I guess you know me girl

Sunshine warmin' my soul

Livin' your own sweet way

Lovin' the night away

Hold on sunshine

Never let go, no, that would throw me girl

I need the tenderness you show me girl

I guess you know me girl

I Believe lyrics - Tom Jones

I believe for every drop of rain that falls

A flower grows,

I believe that somewhere in the darkest night

A candle glows,

I believe for everyone who goes astray,

Someone will come to show the way,

I believe, I believe.

I believe above the storm a smallest prayer

Will still be heard,

I believe that someone in the great somewhere

Hears every word,

Every time I hear a newborn baby cry,

Or touch a leaf, or see the sky,

Then I know why,

I believe.

Every time I hear a newborn baby cry,

Or touch a leaf, or see the sky,

Then I know why,

I believe.

I Can See Clearly Now lyrics - Tom Jones

I can see clearly now, the rain is gone

I can see all obstacles in my way

Gone are the dark clouds that had me blind

It's gonna be a bright (bright) bright (bright)

Sun-Shiny day

There's gonna be a bright (bright) bright (bright)

Sun-Shiny day

I think I can make it now, the rain is gone

All of the bad feelings have disappeared

Here is my rainbow I've been praying for

It's gonna be a bright (bright) bright (bright)

Sun-Shiny day

Look all around, there's nothing but blue skies

Look straight ahead, there's nothing but blue skies

I can see clearly now, the rain has gone

I can see all obstacles in my way

Gone are the dark clouds that had me blind

It's gonna be a bright (bright) bright (bright)

Sun-Shiny day

There's gonna be a bright (bright) bright (bright)

Sun-Shiny day

There's got to be a bright (bright) bright (bright)

Sun-Shiny day

I Couldn't Say Goodbye lyrics - Tom Jones

I watch you as you're sleeping

As I'm standing at the door

I don't want to let you go

But I can't hold on anymore

I just can't find the strength

To say I'm leaving you

It's over now, it's over now

And there's nothing I can do

I couldn't say goodbye

Couldn't stand the pain

Couldn't watch you cry

Knowing that your heart would break

So I let you sleep

Till the morning light

When you wake up and you read the note I write

Telling you that I

I couldn't say goodbye

I'm walking down this rainy street

Thinking you're awake by now

As you read my letter

And the tears fall from your eyes

Just know I tried to make it work

It just wasn't meant to be

I needed you, I needed you

But not the way you needed me

I couldn't say goodbye

Couldn't stand the pain

Couldn't watch you cry

Knowing that your heart would break

So I let you sleep

Till the morning light

When you wake up and you read the note I write

Telling you that I

I couldn't say goodbye

I didn't mean to hurt you

I didn't want to make you cry

It's over now, yes it's over now

I just couldn't say goodbye

I couldn't say goodbye

Couldn't stand the pain

Couldn't watch you cry

Knowing that your heart would break

So I let you sleep

Till the morning light

When you wake up and you read the note I write

Telling you that I

I couldn't say goodbye

I Got'cha Number lyrics - Tom Jones

I got your number

I know you're gonna be there when I call

I got your number, baby

I'd say you ain't got no choice at all

No, no, no, no...

I took your head from lonely,

Chased your pain away

I gave you more than loving

In my special way

I said

I shocked you out of boredom,

Made you a faithful wife

Gave you an education

On the facts of life

In you there's come a change

I'll be damned, I got you trained

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah...

I got your number

I know you're gonna be there when I call

I got your number, sugar

I'd say you ain't got no choice at all

No, no, no, no, no...

Why listen to your girlfriends

When they can plainly see

That the boy that they call lover

Ain't half the man as me

I don't have to do nothing

Long as you're satisfied

Cause if you need more loving, baby

There's plenty more inside

Just tell them "I'm glad that he's my man"

Something they'll never understand

No, no, no...

I got your number

To know you're gonna be there when I call

I got your number, sugar

I'd say you ain't got no choice at all

No, no, no, no, no, no...

My hat goes off to you

For lovin' me the way you do

Even though I know, I know...

I got your number

I know you're gonna be there when I call

I got your number, baby

Said you ain't got no choice at all

No, no, no, no...

I got your number

I know you gonna be there when I call

I got your number...

I Was Born To Be Me lyrics - Tom Jones

(from "Matador" soundtrack)

Now it's clear, by accepting fate and staying here

I might as well be tied up, gagged and bound

Get away, I must go, that doesn't mean to say

I'll never need you more than I do now

But there's more to life than this

No doubt, there'll be no free handouts

But I have to find out

Where this world will lead

Some men are born to be free

Some men are handed a key

But I was born to be me

Playing with life and death is my destiny

What am I, if I miss this chance to do or die

I've nothing much to lose, much more to gain

I have pride, pride enough not to be satisfied

Till I am something more than just a name

I might even rise to fame

No doubt, I will cry my heart out

Long before I find out

What's in store for me

Some men are born to be free

Some men are handed a key

But I was born to be me

I leave my heart in charge of my destiny

I'll Never Fall In Love Again lyrics - Tom Jones

I've been in love so many times

Thought I knew the score

But now you've treated me so wrong

I can't take anymore

And it looks like

I'm never gonna fall in love again

Fall in love, I'm never gonna fall in love

I mean it

Fall in love again

All those things I heard about you

I thought they were only lies

But when I caught you in his arms

I just broke down and cried

And it looks like

I'm never gonna fall in love again

Fall in love, no, I'm never gonna fall in love

I mean it, I mean it

Fall in love again

I gave my heart so easily

I cast aside my pride

But when you fell for someone else, baby

I broke up all inside

And it looks like <sob>

I'm never gonna fall in love again

That's why I'm a-singin' it

Fall in love, no, I'm never gonna fall in love

Please don't make me

Fall in love again

I'm Coming Home lyrics - Tom Jones

I'm coming home to your loving heart

Till the one that I was

True way and broke apart

I want you I need you

A chance is all I'm asking now

I must get back to you so now

So I am coming home to you

'Cause I am nothing without you

May be you found somebody new

'Cause I'm still coming home to you

Please let me stay and forget your pride

Now my world is falling round

I got nowhere to hide

I want you I need you

I know it's true I made you cry

Then like a fool I said goodbye

Now I am coming home to you

Yes I am nothing without you

May be you found somebody new

But I'm still coming home to you

I'm Too Far Gone (To Turn Around) lyrics - Tom Jones

(Too far gone to turn around)

I'm feeling so sad and blue

Home ain't home without you

But there's nothing I can do to ease the pain

They say a man ain't supposed to cry

But here I am, with tears in my eyes

It looks like I've been out in the rain

I don't care how hard it may seem

I need you, girl of my dreams

I don't mind the hurt you give

Without your love, I don't want to live

I'm too far gone, girl, to turn around

I'm too far gone to turn around

(Too far gone)

I'm at the point of no return

I played with fire and I got burned

But I'll keep on trying, I won't give in

Ain't no sense in playing it cool

Deep in your heart, you know I'm a fool

But I'll be your fool until the end

My heart won't let me accept defeat

Cause with you, darling, my life's complete

My love grows stronger, day by day

There's nothing I can do or even say

I'm too far gone, girl, to turn around

I'm too far gone to turn around

(Too far gone)

I'm too far gone

(Too far gone)

I'm too far gone

Can't you see it when you look in my eyes

I'm too far gone

My heart won't let me accept defeat

Cause with you, darling, my life is complete

My love grows stronger, day by day

There's nothing I can do or even say

I'm too far gone, girl, to turn around

I'm too far gone to turn around

Listen to me, baby

I'm too far gone to turn around

If I Had You lyrics - Tom Jones

It's so hard, it's so hard

To be good, baby, if I had you

I'd get down on me knees

And I pray baby, if I had you

Such a state that I'm in

Every time you walk by

Am I late? Can I win?

Tell me, is it worth a try

All I need is a sign

That I do really stand a chance with you

That my world would be fine

Just to know, babe, if I had you

What a thrill to behold

Anytime, day or night

When I call on you, baby

Everything will be alright

I've had other women

Some that I admire

But no one can compare with you

They couldn't start the fire

It's so hard, it's so hard

To control the feeling that I get from you

When you walk, when you talk

About love, baby, if I had you

If you need some advice

Take a little tip from me

If it's love that you want

I can give you all you need

Because I've had other women

Some that I admire

But no one can compare with you

They couldn't start the fire

It's so hard, it's so hard

To control the feeling that I get from you

When you walk, when you talk

About love, baby, if I had you

If you need some advice

Take a little tip from me

If it's love that you want

I can give you all you need

It's hard

It's so hard

Can't you feel it baby

It's so hard

Well it's get hard

And it's getting a little bit harder baby

In the middle of the night

Everything will be alright

It Ain't Gonna Be That Way lyrics - Tom Jones

You won't even give me the time day

But you want me to give you my life

Well it ain't gonna be that way

Well it ain't gonna be that way, baby

Well it ain't gonna be that way with me

You want me to give you all my love

But you won't give your love in return, no

Well it ain't gonna be that way

Well it ain't gonna be that way, baby

Well it ain't gonna be that way with me

You walked around all over this town and you lied, yeah

But all you want to do is see me cry

I got news, little girl, that you ain't gonna win

Cause I'll survive to love again

You want me to give you all my love

But you won't give your love in return

Well it ain't gonna be that way

Well it ain't gonna be that way, baby

Well it ain't gonna be that way with me

It ain't gonna be that way

I won't let you do it to me girl

No no no no no no

It ain't gonna be that way

It's Been A Long, Long Time lyrics - Tom Jones

Kiss me once, then kiss me twice

Then kiss me once again.

It's been a long, long time.

Haven't felt like this, my dear

Since I can't remember when.

It's been a long, long time

You'll never know how many dreams

I've dreamed about you.

Or just how empty they all seemed without you.

So kiss me once, then kiss me twice

Then kiss me once again.

It's been a long, long time.

Ah, kiss me once, then kiss me twice

Then kiss me once again.

It's been a long time.

Haven't felt like this my dear

Since I can't remember when

It's been a long, long time.

Keep A Talkin' 'Bout Love lyrics - Tom Jones

People in the countryside

People in the darkness trying to hide

Keep talking about love

People with a lot of bread

People working for a meal and a bed

Keep talking about love

People on city streets

Smiling at the other people they meet

Keep talking about love

People on battlefields

People pumping gas and wiping windshields

Keep talking about love

People talking all across the nation

Though their number may not be too strong

They believe that love is our salvation

Everybody listen to their song

Think about the Jesus way

Maybe you'll be understanding why they

Keep talking about love

Think of what the world could be

Think about the changes coming if we

Keep talking about love

People talking all across the nation

Though their number may not be too strong

They believe that love is our salvation

Everybody listen to their song

Think about the Jesus way

Maybe you'll be understanding why they

Keep talking about love

Think of what this world could be

Think about the changes coming if we

Keep talking about love

People in the countryside

People in the darkness trying to hide

Keep talking about love

People with a lot of bread

People working for a meal and a bed

Keep talking about love

La La La (Just Having You Here) lyrics - Tom Jones

It's so cute, that sugar's sweet

But next to you, girl, it cannot compete

You're one in a million, so dog-gone rare

I feel good all over just having you here

The way I love you, God only knows

I love you, girl, from your head to your toes

You create such a sweet atmosphere

I feel good all over just having you here

And, girl, girl, girl

I want you to know one thing, baby

With all the joy you brought me

All I wanna do is sing, sing, sing, sing, sing

Finding diamonds is hard, it's true

But not as hard as finding someone like you

With you, no gem could ever compare

I feel good all over just having you here

You may not know it, but you're my dream come true

I love everything about you, you sweet thing you

All my life, with you I want to share

I feel good all over just having you here

And, girl, girl, girl

I want you to know one thing, baby

With all the joy you brought me

All I wanna do is sing, sing, sing, sing, sing, honey

And, girl, girl, girl

I want you to know one thing, woman

With all the joy you brought me

All I wanna do is sing, sing, sing, sing, sing

Love Love Love lyrics - Tom Jones

Love, love, love

Why'd you take so long to come to me, oh, baby

Love, love, love

Tell me where you're hiding from me all the time

Each time I try to find someone to take your place

It was all in vain, know their lips were never quite the same, no baby

When I was kissing someone new

Deep inside I was missing you

Oh, baby, you made me fall in love with you

Now I don't know just what I'm going to do

Oh, honey, look out into empty space

And I see is your sweet face

Love, love, love

You can't imagine what you do to me, oh, baby

Love, love, love

Every time you smile it goes through me all the time

Day by day, I'm falling more in love with you

And that's no lie, cross my heart and, honey, I hope to die, yeah, baby

Cause I'm not trying to mislead you

Believe me, darling, I really need you

Oh, baby, you made me fall in love with you

Now I don't know just what I'm going to do

Oh, baby, you made me fall in love with you

Now I don't know just what I'm going to do

Oh, sweet baby, I said that you made me fall in love with you

Now I don't know just what I'm going to do

Oh, baby, you made me fall in love with you

Now I don't know just what I'm going to do

Love Me Tonight lyrics - Tom Jones

I know that it's late and I really must leave you alone

But you're too good to hold that I feel such a long way from home

Yes I know that our love is too new, But I promise Its going to be true

Please let me stay and don't you send me away Oh no no

Aaahh

Tell me baby that you need me, say you'll never leave me

Love me tonight

Hold me now my heart is aching, until the dawn is breaking

Love me tonight

Something is burning inside, something that can't be denied

I can't let you out of my sight, darling

Love me tonight

Let me love you baby

Baby love me tonight

I've waited so long for the girl of my dreams to appear

And now I can hardly believe that you really are here

Here in my arms you belong, how can this feeling be wrong

Darling be kind for I'm out of my mind over you

Aaahh

Tell me baby that you need me, say you'll never leave me

Love me tonight

Baby now the pain is stronger, I can't wait a moment longer

Love me tonight

Something is burning inside, something that can't be denied

I can't let you out of my sight darling

Love me tonight

Let me love you baby

Baby love me tonight

Love me To ni-i-i-i-ght!

Never Give Away Love lyrics - Tom Jones

Never give away love without meaning it

It's a waste of time fooling around

Never give away love, watch what you do with it

Never give away love until you've found what you want

I can give you tender kisses

I can give a love that's true

Don't you know my only wishes

Are hoping they're returned by you

Never give your love away until you know

Never give away love until you're sure of it

That'll be the day you know you're mine

When you give away love, watch what you do with it

Only give your love to the loving kind

Make that you're mine

(Never give away love, give away love)

I can give you tender kisses

I will give a love that's true

Don't you know my only wishes

Are hoping they're returned by you

Never give your love away til you know

Never give away love until you're sure of it

That'll be the day when you know you're mine

When you give away love, watch what you do with it

Only give your love to the loving kind

Well, make sure that you're mine

Make sure that you're mine

(Never give away love, give away love)

Never give love away

(Never give away love, give away love)

You gotta make sure that you're mine

(Never give away love, give away love)

Never, never, never give your love away

No, no, no, no, no

Pledging My Love lyrics - Tom Jones

Forever, my darling

My love will be true

Always and forever

I love only you

Just promise me, darling

Your love in return

Let the fire in my soul

Forever burn

My heart's at your commanding

To keep, love, and to hold

Making you happy is my desire

Keeping you is goal

And I'll always love you

The rest of my days

I'll never part from you

And your loving ways

My heart's at your commanding

To keep, love, and to hold

Making you happy is my desire

Keeping you is goal

And I'll always love you

The rest of my days

I'll never part from you

And your loving ways

I'll place no one above you

And your loving ways

Promise Her Anything lyrics - Tom Jones

She doesn't really want things

That you can never get

Still every now and then

Maybe she'll complain a bit

Because she feels upset

She only wants you

To tell her that you love her

So if she wants you

To turn winter into Spring

Promise her anything

She's dreaming of

Promise her anything

She will be happy

If she only gets your love

Oh you can promise her the moon

When the sun is bright

Promise her the sun

When you're out of sight

Promise her the world

And promise her

Her every wish is your command

And you'll discover soon,

She doesn't want the moon

Just love will do

Promise her anything

But don't you ever

Let her get away from you

Satisfaction lyrics - Tom Jones

(originally by The Rolling Stones)

I can't get no - satisfaction

'Cause I try', and I try

Yes I try, I try

I can't get no satisfaction

When I'm cruisin' in my car

And the man comes on the radio

He's tellin' me more and more

About some useless information

Supposed to fire my imagination

And I can 't get no satisfaction

Oh, no, no, no

Hey, hey, hev

Ooh baby tell me what I say

Oh well when I'm watching my TV

And this man comes on and tells me

What drink would be good for me

But he can't be a man, cause' he doesn't smoke

The same cigars as me

And I can't get no satisfaction

No, no, no

Hey, hey, hey, hey

Tell me what I say

When I'm ridin' round the world

And I'm doin' this and I'm signin' that

And I'm tryin' to meet some girl

Who tells me baby, baby come back maybe next week

Can't you see I'm on a losing streak

I can't get no satisfaction

Oh, no, no, no,

Hey, hey, hey

Baby tell me what I say

Come here baby

What do ya mean

You don't know what will satisfy me

Yes you do

I've been all around the world

Looking for some girl

And I can't get no satisfaction

And I've got to have some satisfaction

Smile lyrics - Tom Jones

Smile away your blues

And let the sun come shining through

There's no need to cry

Let the clouds roll on by

All you gotta do is smile

And the world smiles, too

Smile and you will find

You'll leave your troubles way behind

Laugh, and you will see

You could be happy with me

All you gotta do is smile

And the world smiles, too

Laugh with me and I'll show you just how

I love you

Smile, pretty baby, do

Smile, and let the whole world smile with you

Smile away your blues

And let the sun come shining through

There's no need to cry

Just let the clouds roll on by

All you gotta do is smile

And the world smiles, too

All you gotta do is smile

And the world smiles, too

All you gotta do is smile

And the world smiles, too

All you gotta do is smile

And the world smiles, too

Starting Over lyrics - Tom Jones

Our life together is so precious together

We have grown, we have grown

Although our love is still special

Let's take a chance and fly away somewhere alone

It's been too long since we took the time

No-one's to blame, I know time flies so quickly

But when I see you darling

It's like we both are falling in love again

It'll be just like starting over, starting over

Everyday we used to make it love

Why can't we be making love nice and easy

It's time to spread our wings and fly

Don't let another day go by my love

It'll be just like starting over, starting over

Why don't we take off alone

Take a trip somewhere far, far away

We'll be together all alone again

Like we used to in the early days

Well, well, well darling

It's been too long since we took the time

No-one's to blame, I know time flies so quickly

But when I see you darling

It's like we both are falling in love again

It'll be just like starting over, starting over

Our life together is so precious together

We have grown, we have grown

Although our love is still special

Let's take a chance and fly away somewhere

Starting over...

Thank the Lord lyrics - Tom Jones

Breaking my back to earn my daily bread

Trying to keep a roof above my head

Lord, my life has not been easy

And I don't know what to do

If she wasn't there to please me

When my daily work is through

Thank the Lord, thank the Lord

For the love of a wonderful womanly woman like you

Thank the Lord, thank the Lord

For the love of a wonderful womanly woman like you

So what if I had some rain

So what if I knew some pain

You know that I can't complain

As long as I've got you

Thank the Lord, thank the Lord

For the love of a wonderful womanly woman like you

Thank the Lord, thank the Lord

For the love of a wonderful womanly woman like you

Thank the Lord for giving me

Someone who believes in me

And, girl, I wanna thank you too

For each little thing that you do

To help me see it through

Someday I'll build a better life somehow

And we'll forget the lean times we know now

I won't always be a loser

They can't keep a good man down

And my source of inspiration

Will be knowing she's around

Thank the Lord, thank the Lord

For the love of a wonderful womanly woman like you

Thank the Lord, thank the Lord

For the love of a wonderful womanly woman like you

So what if I had some rain

So what if I knew some pain

You know that I can't complain

As long as I've got you

Thank the Lord, thank the Lord

For the love of a wonderful womanly woman like you

Thank the Lord, thank the Lord

For the love of a wonderful womanly woman like you

Thank the Lord for giving me

Someone who'll believe in me

Girl, I wanna thank you too

For each little thing that you do

The Man Who Knows Too Much lyrics - Tom Jones

I was a poor misguided fool

Lived alone and played it cool

I would only take a woman if the time was right

Or when the lamp burning low

As I felt the feeling grow

When you put your arms around me, I could see the light all night

Yes I'm the man who knows too much

I couldn't live without your touch

Holding your hand means something different every day

I didn't know how love could be

You came along and set me free

All I can give, I'll give to you forever

What more can I say?

You taught me how

You told me why

You showed me where

Call any time, I'll be there

Yes I'm the man who knows too much

I couldn't live without your touch

I've got to have your loving all the time

I never understood

How a kiss could feel so good

Didn't realize your smile would make my dreams come true

I'd do anything I can

You are everything I am

When you are gone, my life depends on you, that's right

Yes I'm your man who knows too much

I couldn't live without your touch

Holding your hand means something different every day

I didn't know how love can be

You came along and set me free

All I can give, I'll give to you forever

What more can I say?

You taught me how

You told me why

You showed me where

Call any time, I'll be there

Yes I'm the man who knows too much

I couldn't live without your touch

I've got to have your loving all the time

Yes I'm the man who knows too much

I could not live without your touch

Holding your hand means something different every day

I didn't know how love could be

You came along and set me free

All I can give, I'll give to you forever

What more can I say?

You taught me how

You told me why

You showed me where

Call any time, I'll be there

Yes I'm the man who knows too much

I couldn't live without your touch

And I've got to have your loving all the time

Yes I'm the man who knows too much

I could not live without your touch

Holding your hand means something different every single day

The Sun Died lyrics - Tom Jones

The sun died

The sun died with my love

When you left me blue

The summer died, too

My love and the sun

It's the same

The sun died

The sun died with my love

And I'm so alone

And yet life goes

But for me there can be

No more dawn

Yesterday

The coldest winter was like spring

I thought my heart would always sing

And that our love would never end

But that was yesterday

The sun died

The sun died with my love

And life's all in vain

In my heart, there's rain

And I know that my soul

Won't stop crying

Yesterday

When I was looking in your eyes

I thought that it was sweet paradise

But love completely changed my life

But that was yesterday

The sun died

The sun died with my love

When you left me blue

The summer died, too

My love and the sun

It's the same

My love and the sun

It's the same

The Vaults Of Heaven lyrics - Tom Jones

The keys to the vaults of Heaven

May be buried somewhere in a prayer

The keys to the vaults of Heaven

May be heavy or lighter than air

Open up the vaults

We've got to find the keys

The nights have been growing darker

Even darker now than sin

We'll open the vaults of Heaven

The treasures are there within

The keys to the vaults of Heaven

May be seen in a pure child's eyes

The keys to the vaults of Heaven

May be heard in our desperate cries

Open up the vaults

We've got to find the keys

The nights have been growing darker

Even darker now than sin. Darker than sin

We'll open the vaults of Heaven, Heaven

The glories are there within

The keys to the vaults of Heaven Heaven!

May be buried somewhere in a prayer

Somewhere in a prayer!

The keys to the vaults of Heaven Heaven!

May be heavy or lighter than air

We've got to find the keys

To open up the vaults

The vaults of Heaven!

The nights have been growing darker, growing darker

They're so much darker now than sin

Darker than sin

We'll open the vaults of Heaven

The answers are there within

We've got to find the keys

To open up the vaults

Open up!

The nights have been growing darker, growing darker

They're so much darker now than sin

Darker than sin

We'll open the vaults of Heaven

The answers are there within

The Young New Mexican lyrics - Tom Jones

In a town near Albequerqe

Lived a most concerned young boy

He said lately I have noticed

Folks don't live with peace and joy

With frowns and worry on their faces

They're lost and don't know where to go

He said I'll get the people straightened

By putting on a puppet show

The young New Mexican puppeteer

He saw the people all lived in fear

He thought that maybe they'd listen to

A puppet telling them what to do

You know he got some string and he got some wood

He did some carving and he was good

And folks came running so they could hear

The young New Mexican puppeteer

First he carved out young Abe Lincoln

Abe will teach 'em civil rights

Then a king named Martin Luther

So they'd recall his peacefull fight

Old Mark Twain, his wit and wisdom

Will surely show them life is fun

But he smiled with satisfaction

When the prince of peace was done

The young New Mexican puppeteer

He saw the people all lived in fear

He thought that maybe they'd listen to

A puppet telling them what to do

You know he got some string and he got some wood

He did some carving and he was good

And folks came running so they could hear

The young New Mexican puppeteer

Now his puppet shows were clever

And he made the people laugh

When he got across the message

To walk along lifes open path

They built him his own puppet theatre

Decked out with spotlights yellow and red

And then they wrote him up in all the papers

And this is what the story said

It said...

The young New Mexican puppeteer

He saw the people all lived in fear

He thought that maybe they would listen to

A puppet telling them what to do

You know he got some string and he got some wood

He did some carving and he was good

And folks came running so they could hear

The young New Mexican puppeteer

[repeat]

Things I Wanna Do lyrics - Tom Jones

If I could do the things I wanna do

I would make you run to me

How I'd love to be

The master of you

If I could do the things I wanna do

In my arms I'd make you stay

Close to me night and day

That's what I'd do

Forever and ever

I'd feel like a king, but I wouldn't be all alone, no

I'd make you a queen and sit on a golden throne

And I would be beside you

If I could do the things I wanna do, I wanna do

If I could do the things I wanna do

I would make you run to me

How I'd love to be

The master of you

If I could do the things I wanna do

In arms I'd make you stay

Close to me night and day

That's what I'd do

Forever and ever

I'd feel like a king, but I wouldn't be all alone, no

I'd make you a queen and sit on a golden throne

And I would be beside you

If I could do the things I wanna do, I wanna do

This And That lyrics - Tom Jones

I tried to do a little bit of big time moving

I played the clubs and stayed out late at night

I tried to lose the memory of a lover

When someone said, 'Two wrongs don't make a right'

Well, I had too much of this and that

And this and that is no good

I said I had too much of this and that

And this and that is no good

I tried so hard to really get to understand you

You took advantage of me from the start, oh baby

But now it seems that you have found another

And just like me you're gonna end with a broken heart

Oh no, listen to me

'Cos I had too much of this and that

And this and that is no good

I said I had too much baby, of this and that

And this and that is no good

Call me if you're all alone and blue

Say you love me and I'll come running to you

And I will, you know I will do anything for you, oh

'Cos I had too much of this and that

And this and that is no good

Listen baby, I had too much honey, of this and that

And this and that is no good, no good

One time

I had too much of this and that

And this and that is no good, no good, no good

I said I had too much baby, of this and that

Thunderball lyrics - Tom Jones

He always runs while others walk.

He acts while other men just talk.

He looks at this world, and wants it all,

So he strikes, like Thunderball.

He knows the meaning of success.

His needs are more, so he gives less.

They call him the winner who takes all.

And he strikes, like Thunderball.

Any woman he wants, he'll get.

He will break any heart without regret.

His days of asking are all gone.

His fight goes on and on and on.

But he thinks that the fight is worth it all.

So he strikes like Thunderball.

Triple Cross lyrics - Tom Jones

You've been crossed and even crossed double

If you've been around, that's normal for the course

But you won't believe the trouble you'll find in just one man

The man of the triple-cross

He's bad news and yet he's amusing

Unpredictable like dice you loosely toss

He's a master at confusing your most delicious plans

The man of the triple-cross

It's obvious as rain that the man is on your brain

That has gotten to your heart some way

So gamble if you must, with him that few will trust

Just let come what may

Give him love, he'll never stop taking

He can only win and you will take the loss

So before your world is shaking, escape him if you can

The man of the triple-cross

The triple-cross

Try To Remember lyrics - Tom Jones

Try to remember the kind of September when life was slow and oh, so mellow

Try to remember the kind of September when grass was green and grain was yellow

Try to remember the kind of September when you were a tender and callow fellow

Try to remember and if you remember then follow

Try to remember when life was so tender that no one wept except the willow

Try to remember when life was so tender that dreams were kept beside your pillow

Try to remember when life was so tender that love was an ember about to billow

Try to remember and if you remember then follow

Deep in December it's nice to remember although you know the snow will follow

Deep in December it's nice to remember without the hurt the heart is hollow

Deep in December it's nice to remember the fire of September that made us mellow

Deep in December our hearts should remember and follow

Unchained Melody lyrics - Tom Jones

Oh, my love, my darling

I've hungered for your touch

A long lonely time

Time goes by so slowly

And time can do so much

Are you, still mine?

I need your love

God speed your love to me

Lonely rivers flow to the sea

To the sea

To the open arms of the sea

Lonely rivers cry

"Wait for me, wait for me"

I'll be coming home wait for me

Oh my love, my darling

I've hungered for your touch

A long lonely time

I need your love

God speed your love to me

When The Band Goes Home lyrics - Tom Jones

Maybe we should stay together for good

Love seems to be coming our way

When we're apart, I get this ache in my heart

Can't wait to start a new day

When the band goes home we'll stay out on the dance floor

We're the last ones in the park every night

All the things that lovers do, we both seem to do

Everything is looking right

Not like before, we're not kids anymore

This time we know what we're doing

And look what we've found with our feet on the ground

So why wait around one more day?

When the band goes home we'll stay out on the dance floor

We're the last ones in the park every night

All the things that lovers do, you and I will always do

We'll live hand-in-hand even when the band goes home

And when the band goes home we'll stay out on the dance floor

We're the last ones in the park every night

All the things that lovers do, you and I will always do

We'll live hand-in-hand even when the band goes home

And when the band goes home we'll stay out on the dance floor

We're the last ones in the park every night

All the things that lovers do, you and I will always do

We'll live hand-in-hand

You Can Leave Your Hat On lyrics - Tom Jones

Baby, take off your coat, real slow.

Baby, take off your shoes. I'll help you take off your shoes.

Baby, take off your dress. Yes, yes, yes.

You can leave your hat on.

Come back here, stand on the chair. Ooh, baby, that's right!

Raise your arms in the air, now shake 'em.

You give me reason to live.
