Mamma MiaLyrics for Sing-along

Mamma Mia(Ladies)

I was cheated by you and I think you know when.

So I made up my mind it must come to an end.

Look at me now, will I ever learn?I don’t know how,

But I suddenly lose control there’s a fire within my soul

Just one look and I can hear a bell ringOne more look and I forget everything.

(Men and Ladies)Woh, woh, Mamma MiaHere I go again, my, my

How can I forget ya?Mamma Mia

Does it show again, my, myJust how much I miss ya?

Yes, I’ve been broken hearted.Blue, since the day we parted.

Why, Why did I ever let you go?Mamma Mia

Now I really know,Mamma Mia

I should not have let you go.

S.O.S.

(Solo: Margo Uter)Where are those happy days,

They seem so hard to find?I try to reach for you

But you have closed your mind.Whatever happened to our love,

I wish I understood.It used to be so nice it used to be so good.

(Ladies and Men)So when you’re near me

Darling can’t you hear meS.O.S.

The love you gave meNothing else can save me

S.O.S.When you’re gone (when you’re gone)

How can I even try to go on,

(Ladies)When you’re gone

Though I tryHow can I carry on.

Take a Chance on MeIf you change your mind

I’m the first in line.Honey I’m still free,

Take a chance on me.If you need me, let me know?

Gonna be around.If you’ve got no place to go

If you’re feeling down.If you’re all alone

When the pretty birds have flown,Honey, I’m still free,

Take a chance on me.Gonna do my very best

And it ain’t no lie.If you put me to the test,

If you let me try.Take a chance on me.Take a chance on me.

(Men)We can go dancingWe can go walking

As long as we’re together.Listen to some music,

Maybe just talking.You’d get to know me better

Cuz you know I’ve got,

Take a Chance on Me(Ladies)

So much that I wanna do,(Men)

When I dream I’m alone with you(Ladies and Men)

It’s magic.(Men)

You want me to leave it there,(Ladies)

Afraid of a love affair,But I think you know,

(Ladies and Men)That I want you so,

(Ladies)If you change your mind

I’m the first in line,Honey, I’m still free

Take a chance on me.If you need me let me know

Gonna be around.If you’ve got no place to go

If you’re feeling down.If you’re all alone

When the pretty birds have flown,Honey, I’m still free,

Take a chance on me.Gonna do my very best

And it ain’t no lie.If you put me to the test,

If you let me try.Take a chance on me.

(Men and Ladies)Take a chance on me.

Thank You for the Music(Ladies and Men)

Thank you for the music,The songs I’m singing,

Thanks for all the joy they’re bringing.Who can live without it,

I ask in all honesty, what would life be?Without a song or a dance

What are we?So I say thank you for the music,

For giving it to me.(Solo: Sheila Gough)

I’ve been so lucky.I am the girl with golden hair.

I want to sing it out to everybody.What a joy, what a life, what a chance!

(Ladies and Men)So I say,

Thank you for the music,The songs I’m singing,

Thanks for all the joy they’re bringing.Who can live without it,

I ask in all honesty, what would like be?Without a song or a dance what are we?

So I say thank you for the music,for giving it to me.

Dancing QueenYou can dance, you can jive,Having the time of your life.

See that girl, watch that scene,Diggin’ the dancing queen.

(Ladies)Friday night and the lights are low.

Looking out for a place to go.Where they play the right music,

Getting in the swing,You’ve come to look for a king.

Anybody can be that guy,Night is young and the music’s high.

With a bit of rock music,Everything is fine,

You’re in the mood for a dance.And when you get the chance.

(Ladies and Men)You are the Dancing Queen,

Young and sweet only seventeen.Dancing Queen feel the beat

From the tambourine oh yeah.You can dance, you can jive,Having the time of your life.

Oo, see that girl, watch that scene,Diggin’ the dancing queen.Diggin’ the dancing queen

See that girl, watch that sceneDiggin’ the dancing queen.

I Have a Dream

(solo: Nanette Rabalais)I have a dream a fantasy.

To help me through reality.And my destination

Makes it worth the while.Pushing through the darkness

Still another smile.(Ladies)

I believe in angels.Something good in everything I see.

I believe in angels,When I know the time is right for me.

(solo: Nanette Rabalais)I’ll cross the stream; I have a dream.I’ll cross the stream; I have a dream.

WaterlooMy my(Ladies)

At Waterloo, Napoleon did surrender.Oh yeah!

And I have met my destinyIn quite a sim’lar way.

(Ladies and Men)The history book on the shelf

Is always repeating itself.Waterloo,

I was defeated you won the war.Waterloo,

Promise to love you for evermore.Waterloo,

Couldn’t escape if I wanted to.Waterloo,

Knowing my fate is to be with you,Finally facing my Waterloo.So how could I ever refuse,I feel like I win when I lose,

Waterloo,I was defeated you won the war.

Waterloo,Promise to love you for evermore.

Waterloo,Couldn’t escape if I wanted to,

Waterloo,Knowing my fate is to be with youWoh, o-woh-woh-woh, Waterloo,

Finally facing my WaterlooOo-oo, Waterloo, finally facing my Waterloo
