ON THE SUNNY SIDE OF THE STREET - Frank Sinatra



ON THE SUNNY SIDE OF THE STREET - Frank Sinatra

Grab your coat and snatch your hat, leave your worries on the doorstep.
Just direct your feet to the sunny side of the street.
Can't you hear that pitter pat and that happy tune in your step.
Life can be so sweet on the sunny side of the street.

I used to walk in the shade with the blues on parade.
No longer afraid the rover, crossed over.

If I never had a cent I'll be rich as Rockfeller.
The gold dust at my feet on the sunny side of the street.

I used to walk in the shade with those blues on parade.
But I'm not afraid 'cause the rover, he got over.

If I never had a cent I'd be rich as Rockfeller.
All those chicks 'round my feet,
On the sunny side of the street.

THAT'S LIFE - Frank Sinatra



THAT'S LIFE - Frank Sinatra

That's life, that's what all the people say.
You're riding high in April,
Shot down in May
But I know I'm gonna change that tune,
When I'm back on top, back on top in June.

I said that's life, and as funny as it may seem
Some people get their kicks,
Stompin' on a dream
But I don't let it, let it get me down,
'Cause this fine ol' world it keeps spinning around

I've been a puppet, a pauper, a pirate,
A poet, a pawn and a king.
I've been up and down and over and out
And I know one thing:
Each time I find myself, flat on my face,
I pick myself up and get back in the race.

That's life
I tell ya, I can't deny it,
I thought of quitting baby,
But my heart just ain't gonna buy it.
And if I didn't think it was worth one single try,
I'd jump right on a big bird and then I'd fly

I've been a puppet, a pauper, a pirate,
A poet, a pawn and a king.
I've been up and down and over and out
And I know one thing:
Each time I find myself laying flat on my face,
I just pick myself up and get back in the race

That's life
That's life and I can't deny it
Many times I thought of cutting out
But my heart won't buy it
But if there's nothing shakin' come this here july
I'm gonna roll myself up in a big ball and die
My, My

SUMMER WIND - Frank Sinatra



SUMMER WIND - Frank Sinatra

The summer wind, came blowin' in - from across the sea
It lingered there, to touch your hair- and walk with me
All summer long, we sang a song - and then we strolled that golden sand
Two sweethearts, and the summer wind

Like painted kites, those days and nights - they went flyin' by
The world was new, beneath a blue - umbrella sky
Then softer than, a piper man - one day it called to you
And I lost you, i lost you to the summer wind

The autumn wind, and the winter winds - they have come and gone
And still the days, those lonely days - they go on and on
And guess who sighs his lullabies - through nights that never end
My fickle friend, the summer wind

the summer wind
warm summer wind
mmm the summer wind

Come Fly With Me - Frank Sinatra



Come Fly With Me - Frank Sinatra

Writer(s): Cahn/Van Heusen


Come fly with me, let's fly, let's fly away
If you can use some exotic booze
There's a bar in far Bombay
Come fly with me, let's fly, let's fly away

Come fly with me, let's float down to Peru
In llama-land there's a one-man band
And he'll toot his flute for you
Come fly with me, let's take off in the blue

Once I get you up there
Where the air is rarefied
We'll just glide
Starry-eyed
Once I get you up there
I'll be holding you so near
You may hear
Angels cheer, 'cause we're together

Weather-wise, it's such a lovely day
Just say the words and we'll beat the birds
Back to Acapulco Bay
It is perfect for a flying honeymoon, they say
Come fly with me, let's fly, let's fly away

Once I get you up there
Where the air is rarefied
We'll just glide
Starry-eyed
Once I get you up there
I'll be holding you so near
You may hear
Angels cheer, 'cause we're together

Weather-wise, it's such a lovely day
If you say the word, we will beat those birds
Back to Acapulco Bay
It is perfect for a flying honeymoon, they say
Come fly with me, let's fly, let,s fly,
Pack up, let's fly away

CHICAGO - Frank Sinatra



CHICAGO - Frank Sinatra

Chicago, Chicago--that toddlin' town.
Chicago, Chicago--I will show you around. I love it.
Bet your bottom dollar you'll lose the blues in Chicago, Chicago.
The town that Billy Sunday couldn't shut down.

On State Street, that great street, I'd just want to say -
They do things they don't do on Broadway.
They have the time, the time of their life.
I saw a man, he danced with his wife.
In Chicago, Chicago, my home town.

Chicago, Chicago--that toddlin' town.
Chicago, Chicago--I'll show you around. I love it.
Bet your bottom dollar you'll lose the blues in Chicago, Chicago.
The town that Billy Sunday could not shut down.

On State Street that great street, I'd just like to say -
They do things that they never do on Broadway.
They have the time, the time of their life.
I saw a man, he danced with his wife.
In Chicago... Chicago... Chicago.
That's my hometown!

MY KIND OF TOWN - Frank Sinatra



MY KIND OF TOWN - Frank Sinatra

Now this could only happen to a guy like me
And only happen in a town like this.
So may I say to each of you most gratefully
As I throw each one of you a kiss:

My kind of town.
Chicago is my kind of town.
Chicago is my kind of people, too;
People who smile at you,

And each time I roam
Chicago is callin' me home.
Chicago is one town that won't let you down;
It's my kind of town.

My kind of town.
Chicago is my kind of town.
Chicago is my kind of razzmatazz
And it has all that jazz,

And each time I leave
Chicago is tuggin' my sleeve.
Chicago is the Wrigley Building,
Chicago is the Union Stockyards,
Chicago is one town that won't let you down;
It's my kind of town.

LUCK BE A LADY - Frank Sinatra



LUCK BE A LADY - Frank Sinatra

Writer(s): Loesser

They call you lady luck
But there is room for doubt
At times you have a very un-lady-like way
Of running out

Your on this date with me
The pickin's have been lush
And yet before the evening is over
You might give me the brush

You might forget your manners
You might refuse to stay
And so the best that I can do is pray

Luck be a lady tonight
Luck be a lady tonight
Luck if you've ever been a lady to begin with
Luck be a lady tonight

Luck let a gentleman see
Just how nice a dame you can be
I know the way you've treated other guys you've been with
Luck be a lady with me

A lady dosen't leave her escort
It isn't fair, it isn't nice
A lady doesn't wander all over the room
And blow on some other guys dice


Luck let a gentleman see
Just how nice a dame you can be
I know the way you've treated other guys you've been with
Luck be a lady with me

A lady dosen't leave her escort
It isn't fair, and it's not nice
A lady doesn't wander all over the room
And blow on some other guys dice

Lets keep this party polite
Never get out of my sight
Stick with me baby, I'm the guy that you came in with
Luck be a lady tonight

so, Lets keep this party polite
Never get out of my sight
Stick with me baby, I'm the guy that you came in with
Luck be a lady tonight

luck be a lady...
luck be a lady...
luck be a lady...tonight

The Best Is Yet To Come - Frank Sinatra

The Best Is Yet To Come - Frank Sinatra

TO LOVE AND BE LOVED - Frank Sinatra



TO LOVE AND BE LOVED - Frank Sinatra

To love - and be loved
That's what life's - all about
Keeps the stars - coming out
What makes a sad heart sing - the birds take wing

To love - and be loved
That's what living - is for
Makes me want you the more - the more we cling

Let others race - to the moon
Through time and space - to the moon
My goal is greater than this
To reach your lips - to share your kiss

To stay - in your arms
Is the dream - I pursue
To be sheltered - and safe - from the storm
To be cozy - and ever - so warm

And for always - to love
And be loved - by you

You and me - Frank Sinatra



You and me - Frank Sinatra




You and me, we wanted it all we wanted it all
Passion without pain, sunshine without rainy days
We wanted it always

You and me, we reached for the sky, the limit was high
Never giving in, certain we could win that prize
I should have seen it in your eyes

Look how all our dreams came true
See how I've got me and, baby, you've got you
Through it all, just one thing died
A little thing called love, something deep inside

You and me, we're not like the rest, we once were the best
Back when we were dumb, how did we become so smart
And learn to break each other's heart?

Look how all our dreams came true
See how I've got me, baby, you've got you
Through it all, just one thing died
A little thing called love, something deep inside

You and me, we're not like the rest, we once were the best
But look what we became, isn't it a cryin' shame
That we almost made it?

But we wanted it all
Baby, you and me
We wanted it all


Mm., mm , mm

THE VERY THOUGHT OF YOU - Frank Sinatra



THE VERY THOUGHT OF YOU - Frank Sinatra

The very thought of you and I forget to do
The little ordinary things that everyone ought to do.
I'm living in a kind of daydream, I'm happy as a king,
Foolish though it may seem, to me that's everything.
The mere idea of you, the longing here for you,
You'll never know how slow the moments go till I'm near to you.
I see your face in every flower, your eyes in stars above,
It's just the thought of you, the very thought of you, my love.

Only the Lonely - Frank Sinatra



Only the Lonely - Frank Sinatra

Each place I go only the lonely go
Some little small cafè
The songs I know only the lonely know
Each melody recalls a love that used to be
The dreams I dream only the lonely dream
Of lips as warm as May
That hopeless scheme only the lonely scheme
That soon somewhere you'll find the one that used to care
And you recall each fun time
Those picnics at the beach when love was new
It well could be the one time
A hopeless little dream like that comes true
If you find love hang on to each caress
And never let love go
For when it's gone you'll know the loneliness
The heartbreak only the lonely know

Angel Eyes - Frank Sinatra



Angel Eyes - Frank Sinatra

Writer(s): Dennis/Brent


Hey drink up all you people
And Order anything you see have fun you happy people
The drink and the laughs on me

Try to think that love's not around
Still it's uncomfortably near
My old heart ain't gaining any ground
Because my angel eyes ain't here

Angel eyes, that old Devil sent
They glow unbearably bright
Need I say that my love's mispent
Mispent with angel eyes tonight

So drink up all of you people
Order anything you see
And have fun you happy people
The drink and the laughs on me

Pardon me but I got to run
The fact's uncommonly clear
I got to find who's now the number one
And why my angel eyes ain't here

Excuse me while I disappear

ONE FOR MY BABY - Frank Sinatra



ONE FOR MY BABY - Frank Sinatra

One for My Baby (from "Duets")


Writer(s): Johnny Mercer/Harold Arlen


It's quarter to three,
There's no one in the place except you and me
So set 'em' up Joe
I got a little story I othou know

We're drinking my friend, to the end
Of a brief episode
Make it one for my baby
And one more for the road

I know the routine
so drop another nickel in the machine
I'm feeling so bad
Wish you'd make the music pretty and sad

could tell you a lot,
but you've got to be true to your code
So make it one for my baby
And one more for the road

You'd never know it
but buddy I'm a kind of poet
And I've got a lot of things to say
And when I'm gloomy, you simply gotta listen to me
Till it's all talked away

Well, that's how it goes
And Joe I know you're gettin' pretty anxious to close
So Thanks for the cheer
I hope you didn't mind
My bending your ear

this torch that I've found
must be drowned
Or it's soon might explode
So make it one for my baby
And one more for the road
That long.. long road

The Way You Look Tonight - Frank Sinatra



The Way You Look Tonight - Frank Sinatra

someday when i'm awfully low
when the world is cold
i will feel a glow just thinking of you
and the way you look tonight

yes you're lovely
with your smile so warm
and your cheeks so soft
there is nothing for me but to love you
and the way you look tonight

with each word your tenderness grows
tearing my fear apart
and that laugh wrinkles your nose
touches my foolish heart
lovely never never change
keep that breathless charm
won't you please arrange it
cause i love you
just the way you look tonight

and that laugh that wrinkles your nose
it touches my foolish heart
lovely don't you ever change
keep that breathless charm
won't you please arrange it
cause i love you
just the way you look tonight

just the way you look tonight

I've Got You Under My Skin - Frank Sinatra



I've Got You Under My Skin - Frank Sinatra

I've got you under my skin
I've got you deep in the heart of me
So deep in my heart, that you're really a part of me
I've got you under my skin.

I tried so not to give in I said to myself this affair never will go so well
About you why should I try to resist, when baby I know damn well
I've got you under my skin.

I'd sacrifice anything come what might
For the sake of having you near
In spite of a warning voice that comes in the night
And repeats, repeats in my ear

Don't you know you fool, you never can win
Use your mentality, wake up to reality,
But each time that I do, just the thought of you
Makes me stop before I begin,
Because I've got you under my skin

I would sacrifice anything come what might
for the sake of having you near
in spite of a warning voice
That comes in the night and repeats,
how it yells in my ear

Don't you know you fool, ain't no chance to win
Why not use your mentality,get up wake up to reality
and each time I do, just the thought of you
Makes me stop just before I begin
'Cause I've got you under my skin
and I like You under my skin..

New York, New York - Frank Sinatra



New York, New York - Frank Sinatra

Start spreading the news, I'm leaving today
I want to be a part of it - New York, New York
These vagabond shoes,they are longing to stray
Right through the very heart of it - New York, New York

I wanna wake up in a city that doesn't sleep
And find I'm king of the hill - top of the heap

These small town blues, are melting away
I'll make a brand new start of it - in old New York
If i can make it there, I'll make it anywhere
It's up to you - New York, New York

New York, New York
I want to wake up in a city that never sleeps
And find I'm a number one, top of the list
King of the hill, a number one

These little town blues, are melting away
And I'm gonna make a brand new start of it - in old New York
And if i can make it there, I'm gonna make it anywhere

It's up to you - New York New York

New York

Fly Me To The Moon - Frank Sinatra



Fly Me To The Moon - Frank Sinatra

Fly me to the moon
Let me play among the stars
Let me see what spring is like
On a-Jupiter and Mars
In other words, hold my hand
In other words, baby , kiss me

Fill my heart with song
And let me sing for ever more
You are all I long for
All I worship and adore
In other words, please be true
In other words, I love you



Fill my heart with song
Let me sing for ever more
You are all I long for
All I worship and adore
In other words, please be true
In other words, in other words
I love ... you

Strangers In The Night - Frank Sinatra



Track Title: Strangers In The Night
Album Title: Frank Sinatra: The Reprise Collection, Disc 3

Prime Artist: Frank Sinatra
Arranger: Ernie Freeman
Written by: Eddie Snyder
Written by: Bert Kaempfert

Written by: Charles Singleton
Lyrics:
Strangers in the night exchanging glances
Wond'ring in the night what were the chances
We'd be sharing love before the night was through

Something in your eyes was so inviting
Something in you smile was so exciting
Something in my heart told me I must have you

Strangers in the night
Two lonely people, we were strangers in the night
Up to the moment when we said our first hello little did we know
Love was just a glance away, a warm embracing dance away

and

Ever since that night we've been together
Lovers at first sight, in love forever
It turned out so right for strangers in the night


Love was just a glance away, a warm embracing dance away

Ever since that night we've been together
Lovers at first sight, in love forever
It turned out so right for strangers in the night

Something Stupid - Frank Sinatra



Track Title: Something Stupid
Album Title: Frank Sinatra: The Reprise Collection, Disc 3

Prime Artist: Frank Sinatra
Arranger: Billy Strange
Vocal: Nancy Sinatra
Written by: C. Carson Parks

Lyrics:
I know I stand in line until you think you have the time
To spend an evening with me
And if we go someplace to dance, I know that there's a chance
You won't be leaving with me
And afterwards we drop into a quiet little place and have a drink or two
And then I go and spoil it all by saying something stupid like "I love you"

I can see it in your eyes
That you despise the same old lies you heard the night before
And though it's just a line to you, for me it's true
And never seemed so right before

I practice every day to find some clever lines to say
To make the meaning come through
But then I think I'll wait until the evening gets late and I'm alone with you
The time is right, your perfume fills my head, the stars get red and, oh, the night's so blue
And then I go and spoil it all by saying something stupid like "I love you"



The time is right, your perfume fills my head, the stars get red and, oh, the night's so blue
And then I go and spoil it all by sayin' something stupid like "I love you"

I love you
I love you
I love you

FADE
I love you
