CHEllOKEE
Sweet Indian maiden,
Sinee first I met you,
T can't forget you,
Cherokee sweetheart.
Child of the prairie
Your love keeps calling,
My heart enthralling,
Cherokee!
Dreams of summer-time,
Of lover-time
Gone by,
Throng my memory
So tenderly
And sigh.
•My sweet Indian maiden,
One day I’ll hold vou
In my arms fold you,
Cherokee!
TIIATS’ THE WAY IT IS
I tremble at your touch.
T know I shouldn’t,
But that’s the rvay it is.
T want you all so nmch.
I know I shouldn’t,
But that’s the way it is.
I can’t see so clearly,
That we are worlds apart.
But, oh, when you are near me
I can’t see beyond my heart.
You said I shouldn’t,
But thats’ the way it is.
I begged you to be mine.
I said I wouldn’t,
But that’s the way it is.
I love you forever,
Though it may never be.
But that’s the way it is.
With a guy like me.
HONEY
I’m in love with you. honey.
Sa.v you love me too, honey.
No-one else will do, honey.
Seems funny but it’s true.
Loved you from the start, honey.
Bless your little heart, honey.
Everj1 day will be so sunny,
Honey, with you.
FIVE MINUTES MORE
Give me five minutes more,
Only five minutes more,
Let me stay, let me stay in your arms.
Ilere am I begging for
Only five minutes more
Only five minutes more of your charms.
All week long I dreamed about our
Saturdav date.
Don’t you know that Sunday morning
you can sleep late?
Give me five minutes more,
Only five minutes more,
Let me stay, let me stav in your arms.
