Titolo: Not Fade Away
(Norman Petty-Buddy Holly)
I’m a-gonna tell you how it’s gonna be
You’re gonna give your love to me
I wanna love you night and day
You know my love a-not fade away
A-well, you know my love a-not fade away
My love a-bigger than a cadillac
I try to show it and you drive a-me back
Your love for me a-got to be real
For you to know just how I feel
A love for real not fade away
I’m a-gonna tell you how it’s gonna be
You’re gonna give your love to me
A love to last a-more than one day
A love that’s love – not fade away
A well, a-love that’s love – not fade away

Titolo: Summertime Blues
(Eddie Cochran-Jerry Capehart)
Well I’m a- gonna raise a fuss, I’m a- gonna raise a holler
I’ve been a- workin’ all summer just to try to earn a dollar
Tried to get the car go out on a date
The boss says “No dice son, you gotta work late”
Sometimes I wonder what I’m a- gonna do
But there ain’t no cure for the summertime blues
Well, my mom and poppa told me “Son, you gotta earn some money
If you wanna use the car to go riding next Sunday”
Well I wouldn’t go to work, I told the boss I was sick
He said “You can’t use the car ’cause you didn’t work a lick”
Sometimes I wonder what I’m a-gonna do
But there ain’t no cure for the summertime blues
Gonna take two weeks, gonna have a fine vacation
Gonna take my problem to the United Nations
Well I called my Congressman and he said quote
“I’d like to help you son, but you’re too young to vote”
Sometimes I wonder what I’m a-gonna do
But there ain’t to cure for the summertime blues

Titolo: On Broadway
(Jerry Lieber-Mike Stoller-Cynthia Weil-Barry Mann)
They say the neon lights are bright on Broadway
They say there’s always magic in the air
But when you’re walkin’ down that street
And you ain’t had enough to eat
The glitter rubs right off and you’re nowhere
They say the girls are something else on Broadway
But looking at them just gives me the blues
‘Cause how ya gonna make some time
When all you got is one thin dime?
And one thin dime won’t even shine your shoes
Ha! They say that I won’t last too long on Broadway
I’ll catch a Greyhound bus for home, they all say
But oh! They’re dead wrong, I know they are
‘Cause I can play this here guitar
And I won’t quit till I’m a star on Broadway
Oh, they’re dead wrong, I know they are
‘Cause I can play this here guitar
And I won’t quit till I’m a star on Broadway (on Broadway)
On Broadway (on Broadway)

(Jerry Leiber-Mike Stoller)
You ain’t nothin’ but a hound dog
Cryin’ all the time.
You ain’t nothin’ but a hound dog
Cryin’ all the time.
Well, you ain’t never caught a rabbit
And you ain’t no friend of mine.
Well they said you was high classed
Well, that was just a lie.

Well, that was just a lie.
