What in the World Have I Done?
vs.1 They say I would have made it in time,
But, oh boy, they were wrong.
I sure hope that bein' a dope,
I will be able to get along.
(chorus)
I'm gonna do this, I'm gonna do that,
Last thing I need is a tire gone flat.
I mean, I'm barely gettin' through.
I've gotta do that, I've gotta do this,
Now there's somethin' I'm startin' to miss,
And there's nothin' I can do.
There's hardly any people havin' fun;
What in the world have I done?
vs.2 I wish I did what I told them I would,
But things just didn't turn out right.
To not burn a promise is the lesson I've learned,
And now things sure are 'tight! '
(chorus)
(Instrumental)

Oh, what in the world have I done!

Keep Your Head

The day seems so very long
But Im trying to be strong

Well, hold on, I say
Things will soon turn my way
And then Ill have a clear view
But I gotta keep

Keep your head to the sky
I dont need to tell you why
Keep your head to the sky
I dont need to tell you why

I sometimes get worried
And I wonder why I worry
Cause I know that I will make it through the storm
Im tryin not to lose my cool
Because if in this world I do
The only person thats gonna miss out on everything is me
And I gotta keep

Dont you look down for nobody
Dont you do it, dont you do it

Everydays a struggle

And when I look around heres the wrong thing
Tempting me to make me disagree
About how I feel about me
But I gotta keep

The Worst Day Ever
1. Well, it started with the sprinkler,
Goin' off at five a.m.
Got a call from the neighbors,
Thought, 'Oh, I'm in a jam.'
The next, it was a flat
On my way to work,
'What else could go wrong? '
Yeah, it's drivin' me biserk.
(Chorus)
Why do these things
Keep happenin' to me?
I don't deserve this,
What could it be?
Why is everything
Turnin' around?
It doesn't make me feel any better,
That this could be the worst day ever!
2. The boss at my job
Fired me today.
I say, 'What the heck! '
And I start runnin' away.
But then I turned around,
Thinkin, 'What is the point? '
Somethin' bad's gonna happen,
'Cause nothin's goin' right.
(Chorus)
3. I'm goin' home,
And I'm callin' my friends.
Thinkin' that the world's
About to come to an end.
If anybody hurts me,
That'll be the last of it all,
But then I hang up,
And I walk down the hall, and say
(Chorus)
(Guitar Solo
(Chorus)
4. I go for a drive
To my friend's housem
Thinkin' she's gonna say,
'Turn and go back home.'
But then I stop the car,
And go into the mall.
The next thing I know,
I run into the best guy of all!
(My true love!)
(Chorus) x 2
Bridge: But it turns out,
I was so wrong.
This is the best day of all!
Yeah, it's the best day ever!

Loves Gonna Be On Your Side
Ad lib
And now I know it would be a sin
To turn away from the love Im in
A form of hope you lose your mind
Like breaking waves on your heart if you aint too high
If you took away my mind brought back faith into my heart
Wouldnt change a single thing
Cause the sun is in my eyes and Im not feeling blind
And if time doesnt get you then I definately will
Chorus
Loves gonna be on your side
You gotta let me know you gotta let me know
Loves gonna be on your side
You gotta let me know you gotta let me know
A precious thing a treasure found
A lover knows when their heart isnt bound
I travelled through an open door
Into your arms they embrace me and I want them more
Cause you liberate my world
Restore faith into my heart
Heaven knows when the angels sing
If this is the master plan then Ill make my stand
Cause if time doesnt get you
Then the devil will
Loves gonna be on your side
You gotta let me know you gotta let me know
Times gonnabe on your side
You gotta let me know you gotta let me let me know
Loves gonna be on your side
You gotta let me know you gotta let me know
Love is going to be on your side
You gotta let me know or let me go
Maybe if Im strong enough
Ill get my wits about me
Maybe if I got away
I know that time will take me
Maybe if I had the chance
To do it all again
Maybe I would never let time slip away
Oh but time is standing still baby

Well you better jump, jump, jump,
If you wanna' live at all.
Yes you better jump, jump, jump,
Even though you're bound to fall
Cause' they're gonna' make you sorry gonna' make you cry
If you don't jump, jump, jump, into the seat by and by.
Well, you jump for joy and happiness,
You jump when things go right.
You jump when you're asleep
And you hear a strange voice in the night.
Sometimes we get to use to things, they don't mean what they did.
I know that what make my floor, make another fellows lid.

Well, I'm always on the lookout,
For somethin' fresh and new.

Just when I think I've found a place where I'm sure I wanna' stop.
My body won't quit cookin' and my mind begins to hop.

Well, I'm thinkin' about a thousand things,

Put both feet in the water - put em in the water, baby

To think that youd believe so many lies
Girl Im gonna tell you one thing, the rumours may be bad
But you aint got no right to criticize
Because I heard about you and the things you do
You gotta make your mind up, am I coming through?
So baby baby baby, its time you made your move

Go out and get her
If you want her to be
The very heart of you
Make you want to breathe
Here's the thing to do
CHORUS
Tell her that you're never gonna leave her
Tell her that you're always gonna love her
Tell her, tell her, tell her, tell her right now

Make her see the moon up above
Go out and get her
If you want her to be always by your side
If you want her to only think of you
CHORUS
Ever since the world began, it's been that way for man
And women were created to make love their destiny
Then why should true love be so complicated,
I know something about love
You gotta take her hand
Show her what the world is made of
One kiss will prove it
If you want her to be always by your side
Take her hand tonight, swallow your foolish pride

My Boys and My Girls
vs.1 Five years old, got nowhere to go but home.
At age nine, boys still had cooties and nothin' much was goin' on.
Now 13, there's lots of drama with guys and life.
I hope that someday it will turn out right.

It used to be that I'd have to worry no more.
Sometimes I wish it could go back to the way it was before.
I thank God I have the best freakin' people around me in the world.
Don't know what I'd do without them; my boys and my girls.

At 18, on my way to college; it's gonna be so cool.
When I reach 25, nothin's gonna stop me from sharin' my heart full of romance.
But right now, it's funny how the earth is still spinnin', even though it's out of balance.

I've got a crummy job

To win me some of your love
Every time I turn around
I'm looking up, you're looking down
Maybe something's wrong with you
That makes you act the way you do

While it's still free
I'm gonna soak up the sun
Before it goes out on me
Don't have no master suite

You have a fancy ride, but baby
I'm the one who has the key
Every time I turn around
I'm looking up, you're looking down
Maybe something's wrong with you

Maybe I am crazy too

Got my 45 on

Cry Tough
Remember the nights we sat

To make it, baby.

You gotta cry tough
Out on the streets
To make your dreams happen
You gotta cry out
Out to the world
To make them all come true.

Is better than the pot of gold
Youve got to stick it out
Whether youre wrong or right
And you cant give in without a fight

And when you get to the top
You gotta get off or go right back down again

NAYIB'S SONG (I AM HERE WITH YOU)
-----------------------------------
(Gloria Estefan)
Lately my son I've been confused.
Don't know what to tell you 'cause it's all such
bad news.
Lately my son I've been discouraged.
I look around and it fills me with worry.
What kind of world can I offer to you.
Where will it all lead, do we have a way to
make it through?
I've tried to figure it out, to have an answer
I can tell to you
But all I can see, all I can see.
Chorus
------
Is I am here with you, and you are here for me.
It's an ongoing process.
I will take care of you and you will take care
of me
If we're gonna make some progress.
Lately my son I feel ashamed.
For many things that have happened and are
happening again.
Really my son I thought we'd learn.
From what I see around me it's a very though
world.
But all I can hope is that you take it as a
challenge.
To create something new that will take you
far and hope that you can manage.
Scatter some hope, 'cause it's not too late to
reapir the damage.
The only way it can be, so easy to see.
Chorus
------
Bridge
------
You gotta believe, never be afraid to dream.
But follow it through, 'cause it won't get done
unless it comes from you.
Gotta makeit all work, for the ones that are
coming after you.
Though hard it may seem, gota believe.

Wrinkles
Gettin out of the tub all drawn up like a raisin
Showed my fingers to my daddy while he was shavin
Said look at my toes dad whats wrong with my skin
Will this go away, will I be normal again
Well he picked me up and set me down on the hamper
Wiped off his face while he gave me the answer
For the first time I noticed the lines in his grin
As he dabbed a little foam on the end of my chin, he said
Chorus
Those wrinkles aint nothin to be scared of
Theyre just a product of time and true love
Some are gonna come and go
Some are gonna come and stay
Son, youre still young, youre gonna be ok
Well, I walked down the hall, saw my mom gettin ready
For a long over due date, dinner with daddy
She was cussin those crows feet, didnt know I was listenin
Started talkin bout her younger years
And how much she missed them and I said
2nd chorus
Those wrinkles aint nothin to be scared of
Theyre just a product of time and true love
Some are gonna come and go

And Im sure I gave mom and dad at least one or two
Were all gonna have em, there aint no doubt
But those wrinkles in life aint nothin you cant iron out

Those wrinkles aint nothin to be scared of
Theyre just a product of time and true love
