Walk Like a Man
Oo wee oo wee oo walk
(walk, walk, walk, walk)
Oo wee oo wee oo walk
Like a man
Oh how you tried to cut me down to size
Telling dirty lies to my friends
But my own father said give her up don’t bother
The world isn’t coming to an end
(he said just) Walk like a man
Talk like a man
Walk like a man my son
No woman’s worth
Crawling on the earth
Just walk like a man my son
Oo wee oo wee oo walk
(walk, walk, walk, walk)
Oo wee oo wee oo walk
(I’m gonna) walk like a man
Fast as I can
Walk like a man from you
I’ll tell the world to forget about it girl
And walk like a man from you
Oo wee oo wee oo walk
(walk, walk, walk, walk)
Oo wee oo wee oo walk like a man
Like a man
December 1963
Bob Gaudio:
It’s a season of firsts! John Glenn is the first American to orbit the earth. We go out on our first cross country tour,
the label is racking it in so the send over a few girls in Chicago over Christmas. And that night I racked up a personal
first.
Oh, what a night.
Late December back in ’63.
What a very special time for me,
‘Cause I remember what a night.
Oh, what a night.
You know, I didn’t even know her name,
But I was never gonna be the same.
What a lady. What a night.
Oh, I. I got a funny feeling when she walked
In the room and I,
As I recall it ended much too soon.
Oh, what a night,
Hypnotizing, mesmerizing me.
She was everything I dreamed she’d be.
Sweet surrender, what a night!
Oh, what a night.
Why’d it take so long to see the light?
Seemed so wrong, but now it seems so right.
Sweet surrender, what a night!
I felt a rush like a rolling bolt of thunder
Spinnin’ my head around and taking my body under.
Oh, what a night!
(Do, do, do, do, do. Do, do, do, do, do, do.)
Oh, what a night!
(Do, do, do, do, do. Do, do, do, do, do, do.)
Oh, what a night!
(Do, do, do, do, do. Do, do, do, do, do, do.)
Oh, what a night!
(Do, do, do, do, do. Do, do, do, do, do, do.)
Oh, what a night!
(Do, do, do, do, do. Do, do, do, do, do, do.)
Oh, what a night!
(Do, do, do, do, do. Do, do, do, do, do, do.)
My Boyfriend’s Back

And bothered me every night
And when I wouldn’t go out with you,
You said things that weren’t very nice
My boyfriend’s back and you’re gonna be in trouble
(Hey la, hey la, my boyfriend’s back)
When you see him coming, you better cut out on the double

My Eyes Adored You
My eyes adored you
Though I never laid a hand on you,
My eyes adored you
Like a million miles away from me you couldn’t see
How I adored you:
So close, so close and yet so far away
Carried your books from school,
Playing make-believe you’re married to me:
You were fifth grade, I was sixth
When we came to be
Walking home every day over Barnegat Bridge and Bay,
Till we grew into the me and you
Who went our separate ways
My eyes adored you
Though I never laid a hand on you,
My eyes adored you
Like a million miles away from me you couldn’t see
How I adored you:
So close, so close and yet so far
Headed for city lights,
Climbed the ladder up to fortune and fame,
I worked my fingers to the bone,
Made myself a name.
Funny, I seem to find that, no matter how the years unwind,
Still I reminisce about the girI miss
And the love I left behind…
My eyes adored you
Though I never laid a hand on you,
My eyes adored you
Like a million miles away from me you couldn’t see
How I adored you:
So close, so close and yet so far
All my life I will remember how warm and tender
We were way back then
Though I’m feeling sad regrets I know I won’t ever forget
You, my childhood friend
My eyes adored you
Though I never laid a hand on you,
My eyes adored you
Like a million miles away from me you couldn’t see
How I adored you:
So close, so close and yet so far
Dawn (Go Away)
Pretty as a midsummers morn, they call her Dawn
Dawn, go away I’m no good for you
Oh, Dawn, stay with him he’ll be good to you
Hang on, Hang on to him
Think, what a big man he’ll be
Think, all the places you’ll see
Now think what the future would be
with a poor boy like me
Dawn go away, please go away
Although I know I want you to stay
Dawn go away, please go away
Baby don’t cry, it’s better this way
Oh Dawn go away, back where you belong
Girl we can’t change the places
where we were born
Before you say that you want me
I want you to think what your family would say
think what you’re throwing away
Now think what the future would be
with a poor boy like me
Dawn, go away I’m no good for you
Dawn, go away I’m no good for you
Dawn, go away I’m no good for you
Dawn, go away I’m no good for you
Dawn, go away I’m no good for you
Big Man in Town
Big man in town…
Each day as I grow older,
The nights are getting colder.
Some day the sun will shine on me.
Money, I don’t have any:
I’m down to my last penny,
But, darling, don’t cry over me:
I’ll be a big man in town (honest, honey)
I’ll be a big man in town (promise, darling)
I’ll be a big man in town, just you wait and see:
You’ll be proud of me.
They think that I’m a rover,
But my roving days are over.
Someday your folks will welcome me.
I went away a small man,
But I’ll come home a tall man.
Then what a pretty bride you’ll be.
I’ll be a big man in town (honest, honey)
I’ll be a big man in town (promise, darling)
I’ll be a big man in town, just you wait and see:
You’ll be proud of me.
I’m gonna make it, just wait and see.
I’m gonna make it, just wait and see.
Just wait and see,
Girl, I’m gonna make it, just wait and see.
Beggin’
Put your lovin’ hand out, baby
I’m beggin’
Beggin’, put your lovin’ hand out, baby
Beggin’ you, put your lovin’ hand out, baby
Ridin’ high when I was king
Played it hard and fast cause I had everything
Walked away, wonderin’ then
But easy come and easy go and it would end
I’m beggin’ you, won’t you give your hand out, baby
Beggin’, put your lovin’ hand out, baby
I need you to understand
That I tried so hard to be a man
The kind of man you’d want in the end
Only then can I begin to live again
An empty shell I used to be
Shadow of my life is hangin’ over me
Broken man that I don’t know
Will leave it standing, devil’s dancing with my soul
Beggin’ you, won’t you give your hand out, baby
Beggin’, put your lovin’ hand out, baby
I’m fightin’ hard to hold my own
No, I just can’t make it all alone
I’m holdin’ on, I can’t fall back
Now that big brass ring is a shade of black
I’m beggin’ you, give your hand out, baby
Beggin’, won’t you put your lovin’ hand out, baby
C’mon Marianne
Marianne, Marianne, Marianne, Marianne
Whoa-ho-ho here I am on my knees again
I’ll do anything just to make it right
Say you’ll understand, oh I know you can
C’mon Marianne
No matter what people say, it didn’t happen that way
She was a passing fling and not a permanent thing
Say you’ll understand, oh I know you can
C’mon Marianne (baby)
C’mon Marianne (baby)
C’mon Marianne (baby)
Say you can understand
My Marianne, Marianne, Marianne, Marianne
Well now your big brown eyes are all full of tears
From the bitterness of my cheatin’ years
So I hang my head, wish that I was dead
C’mon Marianne (baby)
C’mon Marianne (baby)
C’mon Marianne (baby)
Say you can understand
My Marianne (baby)
C’mon Marianne (baby)
C’mon Marianne (baby)
Marianne, Marianne, Marianne, Marianne
Can’t Take My Eyes Off Of You
You’re just too good to be true
Can’t take my eyes off of you
You’d be like heaven to touch
I wanna hold you so much
At long last love has arrived
And I thank God I’m alive

Please let me know that it’s real
You’re just too good to be true
Can’t take my eyes off of you
I love you baby and if it’s quite all right

You’d be like heaven to touch
I wanna hold you so much
At long last love has arrived
And I thank God I’m alive
You’re just too good to be true
Can’t take my eyes off of you

Fallen Angel
You’re home again, I’m glad you kept the key
Been waiting here, it seems a million years to me
But hush now I know you’re all cried out
It’s all right inside, I’ve had no doubt
About your love for me
I can see behind the tears
I’m certain of the way we feel
And given time the hurt will heal
You’re home again so won’t you close the door
Stay here with me and
We’ll forget what’s gone before
Just hold me tight
Our love is gonna make it right
Put shadows way beyond recall
The ghost has almost gone
Fallen angel, I’ll forgive you anything
You can’t help the things you do
Now something’s gotten hold of you
Fallen angel, got a demon in your soul
And later when the fever’s gone
I’ll be here where you belong

Called her rag doll, little rag doll
Such a pretty face should be dressed in lace
Ooh, oo-oo-oo-ooh (Ooh-oo-ooh)
Ooh-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-ooh
(Sad rag doll) I’d change her sad rags into glad rags if I could
(If I could) My folks won’t let me ’cause they say that she’s no good
She’s a rag doll, such a rag doll
Though I love her so, I can’t let her know
Ooh, oo-oo-oo-ooh (Ooh-oo-ooh)
