"Bing Bang Boom" by Highway 101 (Hugh Priestwood)

1st Verse

Gather around me and lend an ear
'Cause I got somethin' you ought to hear
I'm tellin' you that you ought to fear
A certain kind of love
Now it can strike in the day or night
And just as quick as a rattler's bite
You've got a case of love at first sight
And it's what you're dyin' of

1st Chorus

It's just bing bang boom, one two three
You're feelin' normal as you can be
And then bing bang boom, lickety split
It doesn't come on bit by bit
It gets instantly in full swing
And it's bing bang boom

2nd Verse

Now I was foot loose and fancy free
I had respect, I had dignity
Then this thing gotta hold 'a me
And it still will not let go
I walked in, and my heartbeat jumped
My hair stood up, and my skin goose-bumped
My mind went blank, and my IQ slumped
And my judgment hit the road

2nd Chorus

It was bing bang boom, one two three
I fell the second he looked at me
It was bing bang boom, lickety split
It didn't come on bit by bit
It was instantly in full swing
It was bing bang boom

Bridge

And now my obligations slide
I do not even care
And I spend all my wakin' hours
Walkin' on thin air
So friends, you'd best beware

3rd Verse

'Cause that's exactly how you'll behave
If you get hit with this tidal wave
And you won't even have time to save
Your sinkin' sanity

(Repeat 1st Chorus)

Tag Chorus

Bing bang boom
Bing bang boom
Bing bang boom
It gets instantly in full swing
And it's bing bang boom



  "Somewhere Tonight" by Highway 101 (Howard Crowell)

Chorus

Somewhere tonight
He's a live wire
He's got his sights on someone new
Somewhere tonight
He's a high flier
And I'm so lonesome
I don't know what to do

1st Verse

I bet he's out there shinin' like
A diamond, don't you know
Turnin' heads, breakin' hearts
And puttin' on a show
Rollin' like the summer storm
Driftin' with the wind
And I just wish he'd blow my way again

(Repeat Chorus)

2nd Verse

I've read that goodbye letter
At least a thousand times
He said I was the only one
Who almost changed his mind
But Better Homes and Garden parties
They weren't his cup of tea
Somewhere tonight he's runnin' wild and free

(Repeat Chorus)

And I'm so lonesome
I don't know what to do



"Cry Cry Cry" by Highway 101 (John Scott Sherrill/Don Devaney)

1st Verse

It's just a little creek now
But when the rain comes down
It's gonna be a ragin' river
I just heard my baby say goodbye
He left me here holdin' back my tears
Now he's gone forever
The dam's gonna break
And I'm 'a gonna cry cry cry

Chorus

I'm 'a gonna cry, and I don't care who sees
I wonder if he knows what he's done to me
Gonna love that boy 'til the day I die
'Til the day I do, I'm gonna cry cry cry

2nd Verse

Now he's gone
The pain's comin' on
I can feel my whole body shakin'
Lookie here, now what's this in my eyes
All I hear ringin' in my ear
Is the sound of my heart breakin'
The dam's gonna break
And I'm 'a gonna cry cry cry

(Chorus Out)
