[Song: Heartbroke]
Uncle Klunk: (singing)
Well, who wouldn't notice the fire in your eyes?
Or the bitter direction of impending goodbyes?
I'm fallin', I'm folded, I'm welded in place,
At the sight of you standin' with streaks down your face.
You got your-
All: (singing)
Heart broke
Uncle Klunk: (singing)
Go runnin' from the reason. Get your-
All: (singing)
Heart broke
Uncle Klunk: (singing)
Don't give up on believin' in me.
All: (singing)
Heart broke
Uncle Klunk: (singing)
Who kept me from leavin', with my-
All: (singing)
Heart broke
Uncle Klunk: (singing)
Well, cryin' when you're rich is a poor if you're lonely,
Sheer madness prevails upon reason to yield.
But all is not lost, it is only mistaken.
A small consolation but I know just how you feel.
You got your-
All: (singing)
Heart broke
Uncle Klunk: (singing)
Y' go runnin' from the reason. Get your-
All: (singing)
Heart broke
Uncle Klunk: (singing)
Don't give up on believin' in me.
All: (singing)
Heart broke
Uncle Klunk: (singing)
Who kept me from leavin', with my-
All: (singing)
Heart broke

You kept me from leavin', with my-

With my-

Heart broke
Uncle Klunk: (singing)
With my-
All: (singing)
Heart broke
Uncle Klunk: (singing)
You got your-
All: (singing)
Heart broke
[Song: You've Got a Lover]
Beach Bear: (singing)
The clubs are all closed and there's no where to go
When the sun wont show for hours
The streets have all emptied and lovers lay sleeping
And dreaming of each other.
All: (singing)
You've got a lover but it's not me.
Beach Bear: (singing)
He can't love you like I can
All: (singing)
There may be others yes I understand
Beach Bear: (singing)
Will they love me-
Like you can.
There's acres and acres of heartbroken lovers
I know we're not the first ones
But sometimes it seems that it's just like a dream
That you try hard to remember.
All: (singing)
You've got a lover but it's not me.
Beach Bear: (singing)
He can't love you like I can
All: (singing)
There may be others yes I understand
Beach Bear: (singing)
But will they love me-
Like you can.
[Song: Highway 40 Blues]
Fatz: (singing)
These Highway 40 blues
I've walked holes in both my shoes
Counted the days since I've been gone
Well I'd like to see the lights of home
I've wasted time and money too
Squandered years in search of truth
In the end I had to lose
Lord about to pay my dues
Got them Highway 40 blues
Highway called when I was young
Told me lies of things to come
Fame and fortune lies ahead
That's what the billboard lights had said
Shattered dreams my mind is numb
Money's gone stick out my thumb
Eyes are filled with bitter tears
Lord I ain't been home in years
Got them Highway 40 blues
You know I've traveled all around
Rolling stone from town to town
Met pretty girls I have to say
None of them could make me stay
Well I've played the music halls and bars
Had fancy clothes and big fine cars
Things a country boy can't use
Dixieland, I sure miss you
Got them Highway 40 blues
Better All Over
-
[Guitar intro]
Announcer:
Ladies and gentlemen.
Only once in a lifetime does a man come along with such unquestionable talent and persistence- that he cannot be denied.
People, I'd like you to give a warm welcome- a warm ShowBiz welcome, to your favorite rockabilly relative.
Uncle Klunk.
[Song: Better All Over]
Uncle Klunk: (singing)
Fell better all Over
More than anywhere else, baby
When I'm around you
Well I feel better all over
More than anywhere else
When you kiss me like you do
Well am as wild as a buck
Everytime you call me up
You sure makes me feel like a wheel
Well I feel better all over
More than anywhere else
That's exactly how I feel
Well I feel better all over
More than anywhere else
When you whisper sweet nothings in my ear
Well I feel better all over
More than anywhere else when you
Anytime you're near
Well my heart beats double time
When you hold your hand in mine
You sure is a wonderful deal
Well I feel better all over
More than anywhere else
That's exactly how I feel
[Guitar solo]
Well I feel better all over
More than anywhere else
When you hold me in your arms
Well I feel better all over
More than anywhere else
When you thrill me with your charms
Well I di-ji-di-ji-diddle
I'm as fit as a fiddle
You makes me wanna kick up my heels
Well I feel better all over
More than anywhere else
That's exactly how I feel
Well that's exactly how I feel
Well that's exactly how I feel
Going Downhill
-
[Song: Going Downhill]
Fatz: (singing)
It all started at the corner table
Sippin' on a Jack and Coke
By the end of the evenin'
We were actin' like married folk
The weekend weakened me and took me of my will
You got me-
Beach Bear: (singing)
Ahh~
Fatz: (singing)
A goin' downhill
Goin' downhill
Beach Bear: (singing)
Goin' downhill
Fatz: (singing)
Yeah, still I can't get my fill of you
I-I-I've spent all my money
I have lost my respect
Y-you got me walkin' in circles, honey
I- I'm a- I'm a nervous wreck
Lord, one step ahead of a welfare dollar bill
You got me-
Beach Bear: (singing)
Ahh~
Fatz: (singing)
A goin' downhill
A goin' downhill
Beach Bear: (singing)
Goin' downhill
Fatz: (singing)
Yeah, still I can't get my fill of you
Beach Bear: (singing)
Ahh~
Fatz: (singing)
Well I was voted most likely
A'back in Seventy Nine (Nine)
I'da made it straight to the top honey (Ahh)
All I needed was time (Time)
But you put a somethin' on me
So unreal, you got me-
Beach Bear: (singing)
Ahh~
Fatz: (singing)
Goin' downhill
Goin' downhill
Beach Bear: (singing)
Goin' downhill
Fatz: (singing)
Yeah, still I can't get my fill of you
I can't eat, I can't sleep, I think about you
From daylight to dawn
I bet I won't weigh 15 pounds
A'when they drag my body home
Like a junkie hooked on dope
I'm hooked on your thrill
You got me-
Beach Bear: (singing)
Ahh~
Fatz: (singing)
Goin' downhill
A goin' downhill
Beach Bear: (singing)
Goin' downhill
Fatz: (singing)
Yeah, still I can't get my fill of you
Beach Bear: (singing)
Ahh~
Fatz: (singing)
A goin' downhill
Goin' downhill
Beach Bear: (singing)
Goin' downhill
Fatz: (singing)
Yeah, still I can't get my fill of you
Oh my little sugah'
Yeah, I can't get my fill of you
Oh yeah
