- " Georgia on My Mind " is a song by Hoagy Carmichael and Stuart
Gorrell, closely associated with the cover version by Ray Charles,
a native of Georgia, who recorded it for his 1960 album The Genius
Hits the Road. It became the official state song of the State of
Georgia in 1979.
- Slide 36
- Written in 1930 by Hoagy Carmichael (music) and Stuart Gorrell
(lyrics). Gorrell wrote the lyrics for Carmichael's sister, Georgia
Carmichael. However, the lyrics of the song are ambiguous enough to
refer either to the state or to a woman named "Georgia".
Carmichael's 1965 autobiography, Sometimes I Wonder, records the
origin: a friend, saxophonist and bandleader Frankie Trumbauer,
suggested: "Why don't you write a song called 'Georgia'? Nobody
lost much writing about the South." Thus, the song is universally
believed to have been written about the state.
- Slide 37
- The song was first recorded on September 15, 1930, in New York
by Hoagy Carmichael and His Orchestra with Bix Beiderbecke on muted
cornet and Hoagy Carmichael on vocals. It featured Eddie Lang on
guitar. The recording was part of Beiderbecke's last recording
session. [ The recording was released as Victor 23013 with "One
Night in Havana". In 2014, the recording was inducted in the Grammy
Hall of Fame.

- Georgia, Georgia The whole day through (the whole day through)
Just an old sweet song Keeps Georgia on my mind (Georgia on my
mind) I'm say Georgia, Georgia A song of you (a song of you) Comes
as sweet and clear As moonlight through the pines
- Slide 39
- Other arms reach out to me Other eyes smile tenderly Still in
peaceful dreams I see The road leads back to you I said Georgia, oh
Georgia No peace I find (peace I find) Just an old sweet song Keeps
Georgia on my mind (Georgia on my mind)

lips, I'd like to try 'em for size I'll just tell him, "Baby, won't
you swing it with me" Hope he tells me maybe, what a wing it will
be So, I said politely "Darlin' may I intrude" He said "Don't keep
me waitin' when I'm in the mood"
- Slide 42
- First I held him lightly and we started to dance Then I held
him tightly what a dreamy romance And I said "Hey, baby, it's a
quarter to three There's a mess of moonlight, won't-cha share it
with me" "Well" he answered "Baby, don't-cha know that it's rude To
keep my two lips waitin' when they're in the mood"
- Slide 43
- In the mood, that's what he told me In the mood, and when he
told me In the mood, my heart was skippin' It didn't take me long

mood his crazy lovin' In the mood what I was missin' It didn't take

- " Monday, Monday " is a 1966 song written by John Phillips and
recorded by The Mamas & the Papas for their 1966 album If You
Can Believe Your Eyes and Ears. It was the group's only number one
hit on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100. Phillips said that he wrote the
song quickly, in about 20 minutes. This song includes a false
ending, when there is a pause before the coda of the song, and goes
up a half note for the bridges and refrains of the song. It was the
second consecutive number one hit song in the U.S. to contain a
false ending, succeedingGood Lovin' by the Young Rascals.
- Slide 45
- Monday Monday, so good to me, Monday Monday, it was all I hoped
it would be Oh Monday morning, Monday morning couldn't guarantee
That Monday evening you would still be here with me. Monday Monday,
can't trust that day, Monday Monday, sometimes it just turns out
that way Oh Monday morning, you gave me no warning of what was to
be Oh Monday Monday, how yould cou leave and not take me. Every
other day, every other day, Every other day of the week is fine,
yeah But whenever Monday comes, but whenever Monday comes You can
find me cryin' all of the time

- " When the Saints Go Marching In ", often referred to as " The
Saints ", is an American gospel hymn. The precise origins of the
song are not known. Though it originated as a Christian hymn, it is
often played by jazz bands. The song is sometimes confused with a
similarly titled composition "When the Saints are Marching In" from
1896 by Katharine Purvis (lyrics) and James Milton Black
(music).
