I’m Alright – Kenny Loggins

I’m alright Nobody worry ’bout me Why you got to gimme a fight? Can’t you just let it be?

I’m alright Don’t nobody worry ’bout me You got to gimme a fight Why don’t you just let me be

Do what you like, Doing it nat’rally But if it’s too easy They’re gonna disagree

It’s your life And isn’t it a mystery If it’s nobody’s bus’ness It’s everybody’s game

Gotta catch you later No, no, cannonball it right away

Some Cinderella kid

Get it up and get you a job (Dip dip dip dip dip dip dip dip)

I’m alright Nobody worry ’bout me Why you got to gimme a fight? Can’t you just let it be?

I’m alright Don’t nobody worry ’bout me You got to gimme a fight Why don’t you just let me be

Who do you want? Who you be today? And who is it really Makin’ up your mind?

You wanna listen to the man? Pay attention to the magistrate And while I got you in the mood Listen to your

Own heart beatin’ Own heart beatin’ Own heart beatin’ Own heart beatin’

Don’t it get you movin’

mmmmm-man

It make me feel good

(Wow, Cinderella kid)

Then give it up and give it the job

(dip dip dip dip dip dip dip dip) (Boom, boom, boom, boom)

I’m alright Nobody worry ’bout me Why you got to gimme a fight? Can’t you just let it be?

I’m alright Don’t nobody worry ’bout me You got to gimme a fight Why don’t you just let me be

I’m alright Nobody worry ’bout me Why you got to gimme a fight? Can’t you just let it be?

I’m alright I’m alright Just let me be


This is It – Kenny Loggins

There’ve been times in my life
I’ve been wonderin’ why
Still, somehow I believed we’d always survive
Now, I’m not so sure
You’re waiting here, one good reason to try
But, what more can I say? What’s left to provide?Are you gonna wait for a sign, your miracle?
Stand up and fightMake no mistake where you are
(This is it)
Your back’s to the corner
(This is it)
Don’t be a fool anymore
(This is it)The waiting is over, no, don’t you run
No way to hide
No time for wonderin’ why
It’s here, the moment is now, about to decide
Let ’em believe
Leave ’em behind
But keep me near in your heart
Know whatever you do, I’m here by your sideFor once in your life, here’s your miracle
Stand up and fightMake no mistake where you are
(This is it)
You’re goin’ no further
(This is it)
Until it’s over and doneOh oh oh oh
(Who makes the choice of how it goes?)
It’s not up to me this time
(You know)
Comes a day in every lifeMake no mistake where you are
(This is it)
You’re goin’ no further
(This is it)
Until it’s over and done
(This is it)
One way or another
(This is it)
(No one can tell what the future holds)
(This is it)
Your back’s to the corner
(This is it)
(You make the choice of how it goes)
(This is it)
The waiting is over
(This is it)
(No one can tell what the future holds)
(This is it)
You’re goin’ no further
(This is it)


FootLoose – Kenny Loggins

Been working so hard
I’m punching my card
Eight hours, for what?
Oh, tell me what I gotI gotten this feeling
That time’s just holding me downI’ll hit the ceiling
Or else I’ll tear up this townTonight I gotta cut loose, footloose
Kick off your Sunday shoes
Please, Louise
Pull me up off my knees
Jack, get back
C’mon, before we crack
Lose your blues
Everybody cut footlooseYou’re playing so cool
Obeying every rule
Dig way down in your heart
You’re burning, yearning for some
Somebody to tell you
That life ain’t passing you by
I’m trying to tell you
It will if you don’t even tryYou can fly if you’d only cut loose, footloose
Kick off your Sunday shoes
Ooh-wee, Marie
Shake it, shake it for me
Whoa, Milo
C’mon, c’mon let’s go
Lose your blues
Everybody cut footloosecut footloose
(Oh-oh-oh-oh) cut footloose
(Oh-oh-oh-oh) cut footlooseFirst, we got to turn you around
Second, you put your feet on the ground
Third, now take a hold of your soulI’m turning it loose, footloose
Kick off your Sunday shoes
Please, Louise
Pull me up off my knees
Jack, get back
C’mon, before we crack
Lose your blues
Everybody cut footlooseFootloose, (Footloose), footloose
Kick off your Sunday shoes
Please, Louise
Pull me up off my knees
Jack, get back
C’mon, before we crack
Lose your bluesEverybody cut, everybody cut
Everybody cut, everybody cut
Everybody cut, everybody cut
(Everybody) Everybody cut footloose
