Hit the Road Jack (Ray Charles)
Hit the road Jack and don't you come back
No more, no more, no more, no more
Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more
What you say?
Hit the road Jack and don't you come back
No more, no more, no more, no more
Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more
Old woman, old woman, don't treat me so mean
You're the meanest old woman that I've ever seen
I guess if you said so
I'll have to pack my things and go (that's right)
Hit the road Jack and don't you come back
No more, no more, no more, no more
Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more
What you say?
Hit the road Jack and don't you come back
No more, no more, no more, no more
Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more
Solo Sax / Gitarre / Piano
Now baby, listen baby, don't ya treat me this way
'Cause I'll be back on my feet some day
Well, I guess if you say so
I'll have to pack my things and go (that's right)
Hit the road Jack and don't you come back
No more, no more, no more, no more
Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more
What you say?
Hit the road Jack and don't you come back
No more, no more, no more, no more
Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more
What you say?
Hit the road Jack and don't you come back
No more, no more, no more, no more
Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more

YESTERDAY
Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away
Now it looks as though they′re here to stay
Oh, I believe in yesterday
Suddenly, I'm not half the man I used to be
There′s a shadow hanging over me
Oh, yesterday came suddenly
Why she had to go
I don't know, she wouldn't say
I said something wrong
Now I long for yesterday
Yesterday, love was such an easy game to play
Now I need a place to hide away
Oh, I believe in yesterday
Solo Sax
Why she had to go
I don′t know, she wouldn′t say
I said something wrong
Now I long for yesterday
Yesterday, love was such an easy game to play
Now I need a place to hide away
Oh, I believe in yesterday
Why she had to go
I don't know, she wouldn't say
I said something wrong
Now I long for yesterday
Yesterday, love was such an easy game to play
Now I need a place to hide away
Oh, I believe in yesterday
Mm mm mm mm mm mm mm

WE ARE THE WORLD
There comes a time when we heed a certain call
When the world must come together as one
There are people dying
Oh, and it′s time to lend a hand to life
The greatest gift of all
We can't go on pretending day by day
That someone, somehow will soon make a change
We′re all a part of God's great big family
And the truth - you know love is all we need
We are the world, we are the children
We are the ones who make a brighter day
So let's start giving
There′s a choice we′re making
We're saving our own lives
It′s true we'll make a better day
Just you and me
Well, send ′em you your heart
So they know that someone cares
And their lives will be stronger and free
As God has shown us
By turning stone to bread
And so we all must lend a helping hand
We are the world, we are the children
We are the ones who make a brighter day
So let's start giving
There′s a choice we're making
We're saving our own lives
It′s true we′ll make a better day
Just you and me
Solo Sax
When you're down and out, there seems no hope at all
But if you just believe, there′s no way we can fall
Well, well, well, let's realize, that a change can only come
When we, stand together as one
We are the world, we are the children
We are the ones who make a brighter day
So let′s start giving
There's a choice we′re making
We're saving our own lives
It's true we′ll make a better day
Just you and me …

HEY JUDE
Hey Jude, don′t make it bad
Take a sad song and make it better
Remember to let her into your heart
Then you can start to make it better
Hey Jude, don't be afraid
You were made to go out and get her
The minute you let her under your skin
Then you begin to make it better
And anytime you feel the pain, hey Jude, refrain
Don′t carry the world upon your shoulders
Well, you know that it's a fool, who plays it cool
By making his world a little colder
Hey Jude, don't let me down
For you have found her, now go and get her
Remember to let her into your heart
Then you can start to make it better
So let it out and let it in, hey Jude, begin
You′re waiting for someone to perform with
And don′t you know that it's just you
Hey Jude, you′ll do, the movement you need
Is on your shoulder
Hey Jude, don't make it bad
You take a sad song and make it better
Remember to let her under your skin
Then you begin to make it better
Better, better, better, better, better
Na, na na na na na na, na na na na, hey Jude

SWEET HOME ALABAMA
Big wheels keep on turning
Carry me home to see my kin
Singing songs about the Southland
I miss Alabama once again
And I think it′s a sin, yes
Well, I heard Mr. Young sing about her
Well, I heard ol' Neil put her down
Well, I hope Neil Young will remember
A Southern man don′t need him around anyhow
Sweet home Alabama
Where the skies are so blue
Sweet home Alabama
Lord, I'm coming home to you
In Birmingham they love the governor, boo boo boo
Now we all did what we could do
Now Watergate does not bother me
Does your conscience bother you? Tell the truth
Sweet home Alabama
Where the skies are so blue
Sweet home Alabama
Lord, I'm coming home to you
Solo Gitarre
Now Muscle Shoals has got the swampers
And they′ve been known to pick a song or two
(Yes, they do!)
Lord, they get me off so much
They pick me up when I′m feeling blue, now how about you?
Sweet home Alabama
Where the skies are so blue
Sweet home Alabama
Lord, I'm coming home to you
Sweet home Alabama
Where the skies are so blue
Sweet home Alabama
Lord, I'm coming home to you
Sweet home Alabama
Where the skies are so blue
Sweet home Alabama
Lord, I'm coming home to you

LET IT BE
When I find myself in times of trouble Mother Mary comes to me
Speaking words of wisdom Let it be
And in my hour of darkness she is standing right in front of me
Speaking words of wisdom Let it be
Let it be, let it be
Let it be, let it be
Whisper words of wisdom, Let it be
And when the broken-hearted people living in the world agree
There will be an answer Let it be
For though they may be parted There is still a chance that they will see
There will be an answer Let it be
Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be
Yeah, there will be an answer
Let it be
Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be
Whisper words of wisdom
Let it be
Solo Sax / Gitarre
Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be
Whisper words of wisdom
Let it be
And when the night is cloudy, there is still a light that shines on me
Shine until tomorrow. Let it be
I wake up to the sound of music. Mother Mary comes to me
Speaking words of wisdom. Let it be
Let it be, let it be, let it be, yeah, let it be
Oh, there will be an answer
Let it be
Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be
Yeah, there will be an answer
Let it be
Let it be, let it be, let it be, yeah, let it be
Whisper words of wisdom
Let it be
