The Dave Clark Five

In 1962 they became The Dave Clark Five with members:

  1. Dave Clark - Drums
  2. Mike Smith - Keyboard & Lead Vocals
  3. Lenny Davidson - Lead Guitar
  4. Rick Huxley - Bass
  5. Denny Payton - Tenor & Baritone Sax, Harmonica & Guitar

The band, being from Tottenham, North London, was promoted as "the Tottenham Sound" in response to the Beatles' "Mersey Beat".  

The two bands were the first to spearhead the British Rock 'n' Roll invasion.  The Beatles did the Ed Sullivan Show a few times, first.  But the DC5 were the first to conduct a full American tour and were featured on the Ed Sullivan with more appearances than any other band in the show's history.  

The Dave Clark Five had sold over 100 million records, producing 17 albums and 17 hit singles between 1962 and 1970.  

They had a great impact on the sheet music industry, as well.  I have tried to locate some of their lyrics and present them here...

The following song lyrics may require some correction. If you see an error, please feel free to let me know.

Glad All Over

You say that you love me
All of the time
You say that you need me
You'll always be mine

I'm feelin' glad all over
Yes, I'm glad all over
Baby, I'm glad all over
So glad you're mine

I'll make you happy
You'll never be blue
You'll have no sorrow
'Cause I'll always be true

And I'm feelin' glad all over
Yes, I'm glad all over
Baby, I'm glad all over
So glad you're mine

Other girls may try to take me away
But you know, it's by your side I will stay
I'll stay

Our love will last now
'Till the end of time (end of time)
Because it's love now (because this love)
Is only yours and mine (yours and mine)

And I'm feelin' glad all over
Yes, I'm glad all over
Baby, I'm glad all over
So glad you're mine

Other girls may try to take me away
But you know, it's by your side I will stay
I'll stay

Our love will last now
'Till the end of time
Because it's love now
Is only yours and mine

And I'm feelin' glad all over
Yes, I'm glad all over
Baby I'm glad all over
So glad you're mine

I'm so glad you're mine now
I said I'm so, I'm so glad you're mine
I'm so glad you're mine now
Wow-wow-wow-wow-wow-wow

Hurting Inside

I'll never know
Why did you leave me
Those tears that show
Are they really grieving me
I know I lied
The tears are in my eyes
Now you'll never know

That it's hurting inside, hurting inside
You'll never know, you'll never know

Have I done so wrong
That you won't take me back now
I'm tryin' to be strong
I hold my tears back now
But if you don't care
About the tears I'll shed
Then let me know

Because it's hurting inside, hurting inside
You'll never know, you'll never know

You'll never know, you'll never know

Won't you come on home
And please forgive me
I promise I won't roam
If you say you still love me
I'll hold you dear
I'll hold you near
Close to my heart
And it won't hurt me inside, hurt me inside
Our love will go on, our love will go on...

Because

It's right that I should care about you
And try to make you happy when you're blue
It's right, it's right to feel the way I do
Because, because I love you

It's wrong to say I don't think of you
'Cause when you say these things
You know it makes me blue

Give me one kiss and I'll be happy
Just, just to be with you
Give me, give me, a chance to be near you
Because, because I love you

(keyboard solo)

Give me one kiss and I'll be happy
Just, just to be with you
Give me, give me, a chance to be near you
Because, because I love you
Because, because I love you

Catch Us If You Can

Here they come again, hmm-mmm
Catch us if you can, hmm-mmm
Time to get a move on, hmm-mmm
We will yell with all of our might

Catch us if you can
Catch us if you can
Catch us if you can
Catch us if you can

Now we gotta run, hmm-mmm
No more time for fun, hmm-mmm
When we're gettin' angry, hmm-mmm
We will yell with all of our might

Catch us if you can
Catch us if you can
Catch us if you can
Catch us if you can

(Instrumental)

Here they come again, hmm-mmm
Catch us if you can, hmm-mmm
Time to get a move on, hmm-mmm
We will yell with all of our might

Catch us if you can
Catch us if you can
Catch us if you can
Catch us if you can

Everybody Knows

Wish they hadn't seen you walk away
And heard me beg you stay, please stay
Why, why did we choose this crowded place
They all know it, 'cause I show it in my face

Everybody knows you said goodbye
Everybody knows we're through
Now they all can see the tears I cry
Running down my face for you

They all said it's too good to be true
He'll make a fool of you, one day
I just laughed and said our love was strong
But you left me, and they all know I was wrong

Everybody knows you're tired of me
Everybody knows we're through
Though I'm on my own, I can't be free
Baby, I just live for you

Everybody knows you said goodbye
Everybody knows we're through
Now they all can see the tears I cry
Running down my face for you

Everybody knows you're tired of me
Everybody knows we're through
Though I'm on my own, I can't be free
Baby, I just live for you

Do You Love Me

Well do you love me (I can really move)
Well do you love me (I'm in the groove)
Do you love me (do you love me)
Now that I can dance

Watch me now, oh
(Work it on) I said-a work it on baby
(Work it on) ah, you're drivin' me crazy
(Work it on) with a little bit of soul now

Now I can do the blues (do the blues)
And I can do the twist (do the twist)
I said now tell me, baby (tell me baby)
Ah, now do you like it like this (like it like this)
Wow, tell me, tell me, tell me

Do you love me (I can really move)
Well do you love me (I'm in the groove)
Well do you love me (do you love me)
Now that I can dance

Watch me now, oh
(Work it on) I said-a work it all baby
(Work it on) mmm, you're drivin' me crazy
(Work it on) a-with a little bit of soul now

Now I can do the blues (do the blues)

Now that I can dance

Everybody Get Together

Love is but a song to sing
Feels the way we'll die
You can make the mountains ring
Or make the angels cry
Though the bird is on the wing
And you may know not why

Oh! Come on you people now
Smile on your brother
Everybody get together
Try to love one another right now
Come on you people now
Smile on your brother
Everybody get together
Try to love one another right now

Some may come and some may go
He will surely pass
When the one that left us here
Returns for us at last
We are but in the morning sunlight
Fading in the grass

Oh! Come on you people now
Smile on your brother
Everybody get together
Try to love one another right now
Yes! Come on you people now
Smile on your brother
Everybody get together
Try to love one another right now

Come on you people now
Smile on your brother
Everybody get together
Try to love one another right now
(repeat until fade-out)

Try Too Hard

Tell me, do you want my love
Tell me what you're thinking of
I've been waiting 'round so long
You don't try too hard
You don't try too hard

I hope you're not trying to make a fool of me
'Cause if you are I know there's going to be
Some tears falling and they won't be mine
You don't try too hard
You don't try too hard

Some people may want many loves my friend
But we both know what happens to them in the end
So please listen to these words of mine
And let me know that I'm not wasting my time
I'm sure that we could get along very fine
You don't try too hard
You don't try too hard

You don't try too hard
You don't try too hard
You don't try too hard
You don't try too hard

Come on (come on let me show you where it's at)
Ah, come on (come on let me show you where it's at)
Wow! Come on (come on let me show you where it's at)
I said the name of the place is I like it like that

Come on (come on let me show you where it's at)
Ah, come on (come on let me show you where it's at)
Whoa! I wanna show you (come on let me show you where it's at)
The name of the place is I like it like that

They got a little place a-down the track
The name of the place is I like it like that
You take Sally and I'll take Sue
And we're gonna rock away all of our blues

Come on (come on let me show you where it's at)
Oh, come on (come on let me show you where it's at)
Ah, come on (come on let me show you where it's at)
The name of the place is I like it like that

The last time I was down they lost my shoes
They had some cat shoutin' the blues
The people was yellin' and shoutin' for more
And all they kept sayin' was-a "go man, go"

Come on (come on let me show you where it's at)
Ah, come on (come on let me show you where it's at)
Oh, I wanna show you (come on let me show you where it's at)
I said the name of the place is I like it like that

Come on (come on let me show you where it's at)
Ah, come on (come on let me show you where it's at)
Oh, come on (come on let me show you where it's at)
The name of the place is I like it like that
