Take Good Care Of Her (Words & music: Ed Warren / Arthur Kent) Take good care of her! Take good care of her! I suppose I ought to say congratulations For you won the only girl I ever loved. But I hurt too much to face the situation, Just take good care of her, Take good care of her. Just to be around her was my greatest pleasure, She was ev'rything my future held in store. So, remember when you take my only treasure, Just take good care of her, Take good care of her. I must accept it, she loves you more than me, So, with my broken heart I'll bow out gracefully. Please don't send me any wedding invitations For I couldn't bear to see her there with you. If she's happy, that will be my consolation, Just take good care of her, Take good care of her. La la la la la, take good care of her, Take good care of her. Recorded: 1973/07/21, first released on single, January 1974 Take Me To The Fair (Words & music: Sid Tepper / Roy C.

But he met his master that day. The bullfighter was a lady And it was true love at first sight, Her red cape was waving, But Pedro was shaving, He wanted to date her that night. Pedro the bull, he was smitten, First time the love bug had bitten, He once was a mad bull, A wild and a bad bull, But now he was mild as a kitten. The people were starting to hiss, But Pedro just wanted to kiss. The bullfighter was a lady And Pedro he liked what he saw, He floated on air, With a rose in his hair, As he waltzed with that sweet matador.

Yes, the fair's moving on But I won't leave you long, I'm coming back, so please don't be sad.

For you are beautiful and I have loved you dearly, More dearly than the spoken word can tell. I've heard there's a wicked war a-blazing And the taste of war I know so very well. Even now I see that foreign flag a-raising, Their guns on fire as we sail into hell. I have no fear of death, it brings no sorrow, But how bitter will be this last farewell. For you are beautiful and I have loved you dearly, More dearly than the spoken word can tell. For you are beautiful and I have loved you dearly, More dearly than the spoken word can tell. Though death and darkness gather all about me And my ship be torn apart upon the sea, I shall smell again the fragrance of these islands And the heaving waves That brought me once to Thee. And should I return safe home again to England, I shall watch the English mist roll through the dale. For you are beautiful and I have loved you dearly, More dearly than the spoken word can tell. For you are beautiful and I have loved you dearly, More dearly than the spoken word can tell.
