American Graffiti soundtrack lyrics -- Ain't That A Shame .. Fats Domino


You made me cry when you said goodbye
Ain't that a shame?
My tears fell like rain
Ain't that a shame?
You're the one to blame

You broke my heart when you said we'll part
Ain't that a shame?
My tears fell like rain
Ain't that a shame?
You're the one to blame

Farewell, goodbye, although I'll cry
Ain't that a shame?
My tears fell like rain
Ain't that a shame?
You're the one to blame

You made me cry when you said goodbye
Ain't that a shame?
My tears fell like rain
Ain't that a shame?
You're the one to blame

Farewell, goodbye, although I'll cry
Ain't that a shame?
My tears fell like rain
Ain't that a shame?
You're the one to blame


American Graffiti soundtrack lyrics -- Johnny B. Goode .. Chuck Berry


Deep down in Louisiana, close to New Orleans,
Way back up in the woods among the evergreens,
There stood a log cabin made of earth and wood
Where lived a country boy named Johnny B. Goode
Who never ever learned to read or write so well?
But he could play the guitar just like a ringin' a bell.

Chorus:
Go! Go! Go, Johnny, go! go!
Go, Johnny, go! go!
Go, Johnny, go! go!
Go, Johnny, go! go! Johnny B. Goode

He used to carry his guitar in a gunnysack,
Go sit beneath the tree by the railroad track.
Old engineers would see him sittin' in the shade,
Strummin' with the rhythm that the drivers made.
When people passed him by they would stop and say,
'Oh, my but that little country boy could play'

Chorus

His mother told him, 'someday you will be a man,
You will be the leader of a big ol' band.
Many people comin' from miles around
Will hear you play your music when the sun go down.
Maybe someday your name'll be in lights,
Sayin' 'Johnny B. Goode tonight''

Chorus


American Graffiti soundtrack lyrics -- I Only Have Eyes For You .. The Flamingos


My love must be a kind of blind love
I can't see anyone but you.

Are the stars out tonight?
I don't know if it's cloudy or bright
I Only Have Eyes For You, Dear.

The moon maybe high
but I can't see a thing in the sky,
'Cause I Only Have Eyes For You.

I don't know if we're in a garden,
or on a crowded avenue.

You are here
So am I
Maybe millions of people go by,
but they all disappear from view.
And I Only Have Eyes For You.

Preaching and a crying,
Tell me that I'm lying 'bout a job
That I never could find.

American Graffiti soundtrack lyrics -- To The Aisle .. The Five Satins


First a boy and a girl meet each other
Then they sit down to talk for a while.
In your heart you'll want her for a lover,
while each step draws you closer to the aisle.
You may start with a simple conversation.
My darling please put me on trial.
She says yes and your heart starts beating,
While each step draws you closer to the aisle.
You ask her if she loves you
She answers "I do."
Your heart starts glowing inside.
And then you will know
she is just for you,
While each step draws you closer to the aisle.
Then you put a ring on her finger.
And the tears start flowing awhile.
Then you'll know she's yours forever
While each step draws you closer to the aisle.


American Graffiti soundtrack lyrics -- Do You Wanna Dance .. Bobby Freeman


Do you wanna dance and hold my hand?
Tell me baby I'm your lover man
Oh baby, do you wanna dance?

CHORUS
Do you do you do you do you wanna dance
Do you do you do you do you wanna dance
Do you do you do you do you wanna dance

Well do you wanna dance under the moonlight?
Squeeze me baby all through the night
Oh baby, do you wanna dance?

CHORUS

Well do you wanna dance under the moonlight?
Squeeze me baby all through the night
Oh baby, do you wanna dance


American Graffiti soundtrack lyrics -- Party Doll .. Buddy Knox


Well all I want is a party doll,
To come along with me when I'm feelin' wild,
To be everlovin', true and fair,
To run her fingers through my hair.

(chorus)
Come along and be my party doll,
Come along and be my party doll,
Come along and be my party doll,
I wanna make love to you, to you,
I wanna make love to you.

Well I saw a gal walkin' down the street,
The kind of a gal I'd love to meet,
She had blonde hair and eyes of blue,
Baby I wanna have a party with you.

(chorus)

Every man has got to have a party doll,
To be with him when he's feelin' wild,
To be everlovin', true and fair
To run her fingers through his hair,
To run her fingers through his hair.

(chorus)

American Graffiti soundtrack lyrics -- You're Sixteen-You're Beautiful (And You're Mine) .. Johnny Burnette


You come on like a dream, peaches and cream
Lips like strawberry wine
You're sixteen, you're beautiful and you're mine

You're all ribbons and curls, ooh what a girl
Eyes that sparkle and shine
You're sixteen, you're beautiful and you're mine

You're my baby, you're my pet
We fell in love on the night we met
You touched my hand, my heart went pop
Ooh, when we kissed I could not stop

You walked out of my dreams and into my arms
Now you're my angel divine
You're sixteen, you're beautiful and you're mine

You're my baby, you're my pet
We fell in love on the night we met
You touched my hand, my heart went pop
Ooh, when we kissed I could not stop

You walked out of my dreams, and into my car
Now you're my angel divine
You're sixteen, you're beautiful, and you're mine


American Graffiti soundtrack lyrics -- Love Potion No. 9 .. The Clovers


I took my troubles down to Madame Ruth
You know that gypsy with the gold-capped tooth
She's got a pad down on Thirty-Fourth and Vine
Sellin' little bottles of Love Potion Number Nine

I told her that I was a flop with chicks
I've been this way since 1956
She looked at my palm and she made a magic sign
She said "What you need is Love Potion Number Nine."

She bent down and turned around and gave me a wink
She said "I'm gonna make it up right here in the sink"
It smelled like turpentine, it looked like Indian ink
I held my nose, I closed my eyes, I took a drink

I didn't know if it was day or night
I started kissin' everything in sight
But when I kissed a cop down on Thirty-Fourth and Vine
He broke my little bottle of Love Potion Number Nine

I held my nose, I closed my eyes, I took a drink

I didn't know if it was day or night
I started kissin' everything in sight
But when I kissed a cop down on Thirty-Fourth and Vine
He broke my little bottle of Love Potion Number Nine
Love Potion Number Nine
Love Potion Number Nine
Love Potion Number Nine


American Graffiti soundtrack lyrics -- Since I Don't Have You .. The Skyliners


I don't have plans and schemes
And I don't have hopes and dreams
I don't have anything
Since I don't have you

I don't have fond desires
And I don't have happy hours
I don't have anything
Since I don't have you

I don't have happiness
And I guess, I never will ever again
When you walked out on me
In walked on misery
And he's been here since then

I don't have love to share
And I don't have one who cares
I don't have anything
Since I don't have you

I don't have love to share
And I don't have one who cares
I don't have anything
Since I don't have you
You
You
You


American Graffiti soundtrack lyrics -- Chantilly Lace .. The Big Bopper


Hello baby, yeah, this is the Big Bopper speaking
Oh you sweet thing
Do I what
Will I what
Oh baby you know what I like

Chantilly lace and a pretty face
And a pony tail hanging down
That wiggle in the walk and giggle in the talk
Makes the world go round
There ain't nothing in the world like a big eyed girl
That makes me act so funny, make me spend my money
Make me feel real loose like a long necked goose
Like a girl, oh baby that's what I like

What's that baby
But, but, but, oh honey
But, oh baby you know what I like

Chorus

What's that honey
Pick you up at 8 and don't be late
But baby I ain't got no money honey
Oh alright baby you know what I like

Chorus


American Graffiti soundtrack lyrics -- Teen Angel .. Mark Dinning


Teen angel, teen angel, teen angel, ooh, ooh

That fateful night the car was stalled upon the railroad track
I pulled you out and we were safe, but you went running back

CHORUS
Teen angel, can you hear me?
Teen angel, can you see me?
Are you somewhere up above
And I am still your own true love?

What was it you were looking for that took your life that night?
They said they found my high school ring clutched in your fingers tight

CHORUS

Just sweet sixteen, and now you're gone
They've taken you away.
I'll never kiss your lips again
They buried you today

CHORUS

Teen angel, teen angel, answer me, please


American Graffiti soundtrack lyrics -- Crying In The Chapel .. Sonny Till & The Orioles


You saw me crying in the chapel
The tears I shed were tears of joy
I know the meaning of contentment
I am happy with the Lord

Just a plain and simple chapel
Where all good people go to pray
I prayed the Lord that I'll grow stronger
As I live from day to day

I searched and I searched but I couldn't find
No way on earth to find peace of mind

Now I'm happy in the chapel
Where people are of one accord
Yes, we gather in the chapel
Just to sing and praise the Lord

You'll search and you'll search but you'll never find
No way on earth to find peace of mind

Take your troubles to the chapel
Get down on your knees and pray
Then your burdens will be lighter
And you'll surely find a way


American Graffiti soundtrack lyrics -- A Thousand Miles Away .. The Heartbeats


You're a thousand miles away-ay
Bu-u-t I still have your love to remember you by
Oh, my dar-ar-ar-arling, dry your eyes
Daddy's coming home soon

On my knees every day-ay
All I do is pray, baby, just for you
Hope you a-a-a-always want me too
Daddy's coming home soon

It may be on a Sunday morning
It may be on a Tuesday afternoon
But no matter what the day is
I'm going to make it my business to get home soon

You're (a thousand miles away)
Bu-u-ut I still have your love to remember you by
Oh, my dar-ar-ar-arling, dry your eyes
Daddy's coming ho-ome so-oo-oo-oo-oon


American Graffiti soundtrack lyrics -- Heart And Soul .. The Cleftones


Heart and soul
I fell in love with you.
Heart and soul
the way a fool would do
madly
because you held me tight
(Held me tight) Held me tight (Held me tight) Held me tight
(Held me tight) Held me tight (Held me tight)
And so the kiss bear in the night.

Heart and soul
I beg to be adored.
Yes, and I lost control
and tumbled overboard
gladly
that magic night we kissed
(That we kissed) Oh, we kissed (That we kissed) Oh, we kissed
(That we kissed) Oh we kissed (That we kissed)
there in the moon-mist.

BRIDGE:
Oh, but your lips were thrilling,
much too much too thrilling.
Never before were mine so
strangely
thrilling.

Darling and now I see
what one embrace can do.
Come on, look at me
you've got me loving you
madly
that little kiss you stole
(You stole) Oh, you stole (You stole) Oh, you stole (You stole) Oh, you
stole
(Yes, you stole) All my heart
(You stole) and soul
(Yes, you stole) All my heart
(You stole) and soul
(Yes, you stole) Oh, you stole
(You stole) my heart
(Yes you stole) and soul...

Home for the next ten years people! right here in north america and enjoy the music and culture that is ours. yeah, I got one more thing to say.

When you hold my hand I understand
The magic that you do
You're my dream come true
My one and only you

American Graffiti soundtrack lyrics -- All Summer Long .. The Beach Boys


Sittin' in my car outside your house
(Sittin' in my car outside your house)
'Member when you spilled coke all over you blouse

T-shirts, cut-offs, and a pair of thongs
(T-shirts, cut-offs, and a pair of thongs)
We've been having fun all summer long

(All summer long you've been with me)
I can't see enough of you
(All summer long we've both been free)
Won't be long til summer time is through
(Summer time is through)
Not for us now

Miniature golf and Hondas in the hills
(Miniature golf and Hondas in the hills)
When we rode the horse we got some thrills
Every now and then we hear our song
(Every now and then we hear our song)
We've been having fun all summer long

Won't be long till summer time is through
(Summer time is through)
Not for us now
Every now and then we hear our song
(Every now and then we hear our song)
We've been having fun all summer long
We've been having fun all summer long
(We've been having fun all summer long)
We've been having fun all summer long
(We've been having fun all summer long)
We've been having fun all summer long
