5. Bo Diddley (1955)
Bo diddley bought his babe a diamond ring,
If that diamond ring dont shine,
He gonna take it to a private eye,
If that private eye cant see
Hed better not take the ring from me.
Bo diddley caught a nanny goat,
To make his pretty baby a sunday coat,
Bo diddley caught a bear cat,
To make his pretty baby a sunday hat.
Mojo come to my house, ya black cat bone,
Take my baby away from home,
Ugly ole mojo, where ya bin,
Up your house, and gone again.
Bo diddley, bo diddley have you heard?
My pretty baby said she wasnt for it.

9. Not Fade Away
I'm gonna tell you how it's gonna be
You're gonna give your love to me
I'm gonna love you night and day
Well love is love and not fade away
My love bigger than a Cadillac

Your love for me has got to be real
For you to know just how I feel

You're gonna give your love to me
Love to last more than one day
Well love is love and not fade away
Well love is love and not fade away
12. Magic Bus
Every day I get in the queue (Too much, the Magic Bus)
To get on the bus that takes me to you (Too much, the Magic Bus)
I'm so nervous, I just sit and smile (Too much, the Magic Bus)
Your house is only another mile (Too much, the Magic Bus)
Thank you, driver, for getting me here (Too much, the Magic Bus)
You'll be an inspector, have no fear (Too much, the Magic Bus)
I don't want to cause no fuss (Too much, the Magic Bus)
But can I buy your Magic Bus? (Too much, the Magic Bus)
Nooooooooo!
I don't care how much I pay (Too much, the Magic Bus)
I wanna drive my bus to my baby each day
(Too much, the Magic Bus)
Give me a hundred (Magic Bus)
I won't take under (Magic Bus)
Goes like thunder (Magic Bus)
It's a bus-age wonder (Magic Bus)
13. Magic Bus, Magic Bus, Magic Bus, Magic Bus
I want it, I want it, I want it...(You can't have it!)
Think how much you'll save...(You can't have it!)
I want it, I want it, I want it, I want it ... (You can't have it!)
Thruppence and sixpence every day
Just to drive to my baby
Thruppence and sixpence each day
'Cause I drive my baby every way
I said, now I've got my Magic Bus
I said, now I've got my Magic Bus (Too much, the Magic Bus)
I drive my baby every way (Too much, the Magic Bus)
Each time I go a different way (Too much, the Magic Bus)
I want it, i want it, I want it, I want it ...
Every day you'll see the dust (Too much, the Magic Bus)
As I drive my baby in my Magic Bus...
15. Faith
Well I guess it would be nice
If I could touch your body
I know not everybody
Has got a body like you
But I've got to think twice
Before I give my heart away
And I know all the games you play
Because I play them too
Oh but I need some time off from that emotion
Time to pick my heart up off the floor
And when that love comes down
Without devotion
Well it takes a strong man baby
But I'm showing you the door
'Cause I gotta have faith...
16. Baby
I know you're asking me to stay
Say please, please, please, don't go away
You say I'm giving you the blues
Maybe
You mean every word you say
Can't help but think of yesterday
And another who tied me down to loverboy rules
Before this river
Becomes an ocean
Before you throw my heart back on the floor
Oh baby I reconsider
My foolish notion
Well I need someone to hold me
But I'll wait for something more
Yes I've gotta have faith...
18. Desire
Lover, I'm on the street She's the dollars
Gonna go where the bright lights She's my protection
And the big city meet Yeah she's a promise
With a red guitar...on fire In the year of election
Desire Oh sister, I can't let you go
Like a preacher stealing hearts
She's a candle burning in my room At a traveling show
Yeah I'm like the needle, For love or money
needle and spoon money money money...
Over the counter with a shotgun And the fever, getting higher
Pretty soon everybody got one Desire, desire, desire, desire
And the fever when I'm beside her Desire, desire
Desire, desire...
And the fever...getting higher
Desire, desire...burning, burning
