# Something new suddenly hit me

# The world over It's always happening

# The same sort of thing to others, too

# Something is happening to me

# And I only hope the same thing is happening to you

# Something is happening

# Exciting, bewildering,

# You must know why-ay-ay

# Something is happening

# I can't think of anything

# But you and I-ay-ay

# What begins these lovin' notions

# You do things to my emotions

# I can't help whatever is happening

# There's nothing about it I can do

# Something is happening to me

# And I only hope the same thing is happening to you

# Ay-ay-ay-ay

MUSIC: This Wheel's On Fire by Julie Driscoll, Brian Auger & The Trinity

# If your memory serves you well

# We were gonna meet again and wait

# So I'm goin' to unpack all my things

# And sit before it gets too late

# No man alive will come to you

# With another tale to tell

# But you know that we shall meet again

# If your memory serves you well

# Wheel's on fire,

# Rolling down the ro-o-oad

# Best notify my next of kin

# This wheel shall explo-o-o-ode!

# Your memory serves you well

# I was goin' to confiscate my lace

# And wrap it up In a sailor's knot

# And hide it in your case

# If I knew for sure That it was yours

# But it was oh so hard to tell

# And you know that we shall meet again

# If your memory serves you well

# Wheel's on fire

# Rolling down the ro-o-oad

# Best notify my next of kin

# This wheel shall explo-o-o-ode!

# Your memory serves you well

# You'll remember you're the one

# That called on me To ca-a-all on them

# To get you your favours done

# And after every plan had failed

# And there was nothing more to tell

# You knew that we would meet again

# If your memory serves you well

# This wheel's on fire

# It's rolling down the ro-o-oad

# Best notify my next of kin

# This wheel shall explo-o-o-o-ode! #

And now for a complete change of mood.

# Cos I just can't seem to drink you off my mind.

# It's the ho-o-o-onky tonk women

# That gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk blues.

# I laid a divorcee in New York City

# She tried to put up some kind of a fight

# The lady

# She covered me in roses

# She blew my nose And then she blew my mind

# It's the ho-o-o-onky tonk women

# That gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk blues

Whoo!

Oh, yeah!

# It's the ho-o-o-onky tonk women

# That gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk blues
