((( DREAMBOAT ANNIE )))

Heading out this morning into the sun

Riding on the diamond waves, little darlin' one

Warm wind caress her

Her lover it seems

Oh, Annie

Dreamboat Annie my little ship of dreams

Going down the city sidewalk alone in the crowd

No one knows the lonely one whose head's in the clouds

Sad faces painted over with those magazine smiles

Heading out to somewhere won't be back for a while

((( SWEET LORRAINE )))

Just found joy

I'm as happy as a baby boy, baby boy

With another brand new choo-choo choy

When I met my sweet Lorraine, Lorraine, Lorraine.

A pair of eyes 

That are brighter than the summer sky

When you see them, you'll realize

Why I love my sweet Lorraine.

Now when it's rainin',

I don't miss the sun

Because it's in my baby's smile, whoa ho

And to think that I'm the lucky one 

That will lead her down the aisle, whoa ho ho

Each night I pray

That no one will steal her heart away

I can't wait until that lucky day

When I marry sweet Lorraine.

Now when it's rainin' 

I don't miss the sun 

Because it's in my baby's smile, whoa ho

And to think that I'm the lucky one

That will lead her down the aisle, whoa ho ho

Each night I pray 

That no one will steal her heart away

I can't wait until that lucky day

When I marry sweet Lorraine.

((( COW PATTI )))

From the bad lands came the killer

He lived by the knife and the gun

He'd cut you just for standing

And shoot ya if ya tried to run

He was big as a tree and did as he pleased

And everything he did was bad

And they said if you was to kill him

It'd only make him mad

From the good lands came the cowgirl

Patti was her name

She was hot on the trail of that killer

On a moped she called Flame

'Cause the killer had killed her daddy

Just for spittin' in the road

You only had to kill her daddy once

To get that gal P.O.'d

Yippie eye eh Cow Patti

Yippie eye eh Cow Patti

She rode into town to find the man that killed her daddy

Yippie eye eh Cow Patti

The killer hit town at daybreak

Ate the door of the local saloon

He started to drink you could tell

He was thinking there'll be a showdown soon

Patti hit town in a cloud of dust

Ol' Flame was buzzin' like a saw

And the whole town got quiet as a church

When the killer stepped out for the draw

Forty shots rang out

Forty people fell

Patti and the killer missed each other

But they shot that town to hell

Yippie eye eh Cow Patti

Yippie eye eh Cow Patti

She rode into town to find the man that killed her daddy

Yippie eye eh Cow Patti

The killer took a step towards Patti

Said it's time I gunned you down

But he slipped in something that was layin' in the street

And was shot before he hit the ground

Yes, the killer slipped and it cost him his life

And Patti said as she roared out of town

You gotta watch your step

When you know the chips are down

(( JESUS LOVES THE BOY FROM NEW YORK CITY ))

Ooh wah, ooh wah cool, cool kitty

Tell us about the boy from New York City

Ooh wah, ooh wah c'mon kitty

Tell us about the boy from New York City

He's kind of tall

He's really fine

Some day I hope to make him mine, all mine

And he's neat

And oh so sweet

And just the way he looked at me

He swept me off my feet

Ooh whee, you ought to come and see

How he walks

And how he talks

Ooh wah, ooh wah cool, cool kitty

Tell us about the boy from New York City

He's really down

And he's no clown

He has the finest penthouse I've ever seen in town

And he's cute

In his mohair suit

And he keeps his pockets full of spending loot

Ooh whee, say you ought to come and see

His dueling scar

And brand new car

Every time he says he loves me

Chills run down my spine

Every time he wants to kiss me

He makes me feel so fine

Ooh wah, ooh wah cool, cool kitty

Tell us about the boy from New York City

Well he can dance (He can dance, take a chance with a little)

And make romance (Romance baby, cause he's a looker)

That's when I feel in love 

With just one glance (He's sweet talking and cool)

He was shy 

And so was I

And now I know I'll never, ever say goodbye

Ooh whee, say you ought to come and see

He's the most

From coast to coast

Ooh wah, ooh wah cool, cool kitty

Tell us about the boy from New York City

Ooh wah, ooh wah c'mon kitty

Tell us about the boy from New York City

((( LOVE WILL KEEP US TOGETHER )))

Love

Love will keep us together

Think of me babe, whenever

Some sweet-talking girl comes along, singing her song

Don't mess around, you've just got to be strong, just stop

'Cause I really love you, stop

I'll be thinking of you

Look in my heart and let love keep us together

You

You belong to me now

Ain't gonna set you free now

When those girl start hanging around talking me down

Hear with your heart and you won't hear a sound, just stop (stop)

'Cause I really love you, stop (stop)

I'll be thinking of you

Look in my heart and let love keep us together

Whatever

Young and beautiful

But someday your looks will be gone

When the others turn you off

Who'll be turning you on?

I will, I will, I will

I will be there to share forever

Love will keep us together

I said it before and I'll say it again while others pretend

I need you now and I'll need you then, just stop (stop)

'Cause I really love you, stop (stop)

I'll be thinking of you

Look in my heart and let love keep us together

Whatever, ba-ba-ba-ba-ba, whatever

I will, I will, I will, I will

You better stop

'Cause I really love you, stop (stop)

I'll be thinking of you

Look in my heart and let love keep us together

Whatever, ba-ba-ba-ba-ba, whatever

I will, I will, I will, I will

((( SMILE )))

Smile though your heart is aching

Smile even though it's breaking.

When there are clouds in the sky

you'll get by.

If you smile through your fear and sorrow

Smile and maybe tomorrow

You'll see the sun come shining through

For you.

Light up your face with gladness,

Hide every trace of sadness.

Although a tear may be ever so near

That's the time you must keep on trying

Smile, what's the use of crying.

You'll find that life is still worthwhile-

If you just smile.

(instrumental)

That's the time you must keep on trying

smile, what's the use of crying

you'll find that life is still worthwhile

if you just smile

smile, though your heart is aching

smile, even though it's breaking

when there are clouds in the sky

you'll get by

That's the time you must keep on trying

smile, what's the use of crying

you'll find that life is still worthwhile

if you just (smile)

You'll find that life is still worthwhile

if you just smile

Waikiki entertainer and ventriloquist Freddie Morris, 

shown here with his stage dummy Moku Kahana in 1985, 

died last night at Castle Hospital. He was 39.

Waikiki entertainer and ventriloquist Freddie Morris died last night 

at Castle Hospital after suffering a seizure.

Morris, 39, suffered from a seizure disorder for the past two years, according to his manager Shauna Tabor. Morris collapsed at his home last night and was taken to Castle, where he died.

Funeral services are pending.

Morris had been a ventriloquist since he was 7.

Kimo McVay said he began managing Morris more than 20 years ago after seeing his show at a Waikiki coffee shop. "He was a ventriloquist, and I wasn't too thrilled about ventriloquists," McVay said. "He had a dummy whom he called Archie, and I wasn't that impressed with the dummy, but the audience loved him.

"After I decided to manage him, we decided to change the dummy and we created Moku Kahana. We sent the manufacturer pictures of various famous Hawaiians and Hawaiian entertainers.

"It was later that I realized that the name Moku Kahana is Kahanamoku spelled backwards. It must have been a Freudian slip because I had been a close friend of Duke Kahanamoku. . . ."

"(Morris) was the nicest, loving and caring individual."

Morris appeared on Channel 9's Checkers and Pogo afternoon kids' television show during his nearly two decades in entertainment.

A partial list of survivors include two sisters, Denise and Joy; 

and several brothers including Bobby and Barry.

Tell me again, mommy

You and me against the world

Sometimes it feels like you and me against the world

When all the others turn their backs and walk away

You can count on me to stay

Remember when the circus came to town

And you were frightened by the clown

Wasn't it nice to be around someone that you knew

Someone who was big and strong and looking out for you 

And me against the world

Sometimes it feels like you and me against the world

And for all the times we've cried

I always felt that God was on our side

And when one of us is gone

And one of us is left to carry on

Then remembering will have to do

Our memories alone will get us through

Think about the days of me and you

You and me against the world

And when one of us is gone

And one of us is left to carry on

Then remembering will have to do

Our memories alone will get us through

Think about the days of me and you

You and me against the world

I love you, mommy

I love you too, baby
