THERE'LL BE SOME CHANGES MADE
Verse 1
They say don't change the old for the new,
But I've found out that this will, nev-er do___
When you grow old you don't last long__
You're here- to-day and then to - mor-row you're gone,
I loved a man for man-y years gone by,__
I tho't his love for me would nev-er die,___
He made some chang-es that would nev-er do__
From now on I'm goin' to make some chang-es too.

CHORUS 1
For there's a change in the weath-er
There's a change in the sea___
So from now on there'll be a change in me,__
My walk will be dif - f'rent my talk and my name
Noth-in' a-bout me is goin' to be the same,

I goin' to change my way of liv-in if that ain't e-nough,
Then I'll change the way that I Strut my stuff,
'cause no-bod-y wants you when you're old and gray
There'll be some chang-es made to - day
There'll be some chang-es made. 

Verse 2
They say the old time things are the best,
That may be ver - ry good for all the rest__
But I'm goin' let the old things be__
'Cause they are cer-tain-ly not suit-ed for me,

There was a time when I thought that way,__
That's why I'm all a-lone_  there  to - day___
Since ev-'ry one these days seeks some-thing new_-
From now on I'm goin' to seek some new things too.

CHORUS 2
For there's a change in the fash-ions
There's a change in the shoes__
There's a new way the peo-ple get their Booze,
I must make some chang-es from old to the new
I must do things just the same as oth-ers do,

I goin' to change my long, 
tall Dad-dy for a   lit-tle short Fat,__
Goin' to change the num-ber where I live at.
I'm goin' to try Bonc-il - la, Dye my hair
There'll be some chang-es made to - day
There'll be some chang-es made. 

[Additional Chorus Lyrics by Wilson & Ringle]
CHORUS 3
There's a change in your manner
And a change in your way
There was time once when you was O.K.
You once said you saved ev'ry kiss for my sake
Now you're giving all the girls an even break

I'm gonna send out invitations to the men I know
Cause you're gettin' colder than an Eskimo
I must have my lovin' or I'll fade away
There'll be some chang-es made to - day
There'll be some chang-es made. 

CHORUS 4
For there's a change in your manner
There's a change in your style
And here of late you never wear a smile
You don't seem to act like a real lover should
You can't thrill your mamma if you're made of wood

I gotta have a man who loves me like a real live Sheik
With a tasty kiss that lingers for a week
I'm not over sixty so it's time to say
There'll be some chang-es made to - day
There'll be some chang-es made. 

CHORUS 5
For there's a change in your squeezin'
There's a change in your kiss
It used to have a kick that I now miss
You'd set me on fire when you used to tease
Now each time you call I just sit there and freeze

You had a way of making love that made a hit with me
One time you could thrill me but it's plain to see
You're not so ambitious as you used to be
There'll be some chang-es made to - day
There'll be some chang-es made. 

CHORUS 6
There's a change in the weather
There's a change in the sea
From now on there'll be a change in me
I'm tired of working all of my life
I'm gonna grab a rich husband and be his wife

I'm going to ride around in a big limousine
Wear fancy clothes and put on plenty of steam
No more tired puppies, will I treat you mean
There'll be some chang-es made to - day
There'll be some chang-es made. 

CHORUS 7
For there's a change in your manner
There's a change in your smile
From now on you can't be worth my while
I'm right here to tell you with you I'm thru
Your brand of lovin' will never do

I'm gettin' tired of eating just butter and bread
I could enjoy a few pork chops instead
You know variety is the spice of life they say
There'll be some chang-es made to - day [I'll get mine]
There'll be some chang-es made.
