    Traditional

    Corrina, Corrina
    Gal, where you been so long?
    Corrina, Corrina
    Gal, where you been so long?
    I've been worr´in´ ´bout you baby
    Ever since you've been gone

    The wind stopped blowing
    But it's raining in my heart
    I said the wind stopped blowing
    But it's raining in my heart
    It's bad enough on the beach but it's sure hell in the sea

    Baby, baby, whatcha doing to me?
    Ah baby, whatcha doing to me?
    It's bad enough on the beach but it's sure hell in the sea

    A Case Of The Blues
    John Lennon
    Albino coloured glasses wearing knock-kneed shoes
    Seventh church is on his head it's on headed glue
    Sales in the morning, it's a case of the blues

    Albino coloured glasses shooting knock-kneed shoes
    Second pair of dockers sang inside of a hood
    This is the morning, a case of the blues
    This is the morning, it's a case of the blues
    This is the morning, it's a case of the blues

    Albino coloured glasses wearing knock-kneed shoes
    Sammy tries to bargain with a celephant Jew
    Everyone knows it's a case of the blues
    Everyone knows it's a case of the blues
    Everyone knows it's a case of the blues
    Everyone knows it's a case of the blues
    Everyone knows it's a case of the blues

    Albino coloured glasses wearing knock-kneed shoes
    Driving pair of Lincoln sandals, sham leather shoe
    Everyone knows it's a case of the blues
    Everyone knows it's a case of the blues

    Albino coloured glasses looking back-kneed shoes
    Come together, sell agender, it's pleasant to choose
    Everyone knows it's a case of the blues
    So watch it
    So long

    Albino coloured glasses with a knock-kneed shoe
    Merry chives departed down the celephant Jew
    Everyone knows it's a case of the blues
    Albino coloured glasses wearing knock-kneed shoes
    Alabaster primrose, I'm sad and I'm blue
    And everyone knows it's a case of the blues

    Everyone Had A Hard Year
    John Lennon

    Everyone had a hard year
    Everyone had a good time
    Everyone had the boot in
    Everyone saw the sun shine

    Everyone had a hard year
    Everyone let their hair down
    Everyone pulled their socks up
    Everyone put their feet down

    Everyone had a hard year
    Everyone put their feet up
    Everyone had a face-lift
    Everone had a new cup

    Everyone, everyone
    Everyone, everyone
    Everyone, everyone

    Everyone had a hard year
    Everyone had a good time
    Everyone had the boot in
    Everyone saw the sun shine

    Everyone had a hard year
    Everyone let their hair down
    Everyone pulled their socks up
    Everyone put their feet down

    Everyone had a hard year
    Everyone had a good time
    Everyone put their feet up
    Everyone had a wrong time
