    Take A Message To Mary
    Composer(s): Boudleaux Bryant - Felice Bryant
    First release by: The Everly Brothers - 1959
    Covered by multiple other artists



    These are the words of a frontier lad
    Who lost his love when he turned bad

    Take a message to Mary but don’t tell her where I am
    Take a message to Mary but don’t say I’m in a jam
    You can tell her I had to see the world or tell her that my ship set sail
    You can say she better not wait for me but don’t tell her I’m in jail
    Oh, don’t tell her I’m in jail

    Take a message to Mary but don’t tell her what I’ve done
    Please don’t mention the stagecoach and the shot from a careless gun
    You can tell her I had to change my plans and cancel out the wedding day
    But please don’t mention my lonely cell where I’m gonna pine away
    Until my dying day

    Take a message to Mary but don’t tell her all you know
    My heart’s aching for Mary, Lord knows I miss her so
    Just tell her I went to Timbuktu, tell her I’m searching for gold
    You can say she better find someone new to cherish and to hold
    Oh, Lord, this cell is cold

    Mary, Mary
    Oh, Lord this cell is cold

    Morro Dois Irmãos
    Composer(s): Chico Buarque
    Performer(s): Chico Buarque
    and various other artists



    Dois Irmãos, quando vai alta a madrugada
    E a teus pés vão-se encostar os intrumentos
    Aprendi a respeitar tua prumada
    E desconfiar do teu silêncio

    Penso ouvir a pulsação atravessada
    Do que foi e o que será noutra existência
    É assim como se a rocha dilatada
    Fosse uma concentração de tempos

    É assim como se o ritmo do nada
    Fosse, sim, todos os ritmos por dentro
    Ou, então, como um música parada
    Sobre um montanha em movimento

    Girl (Why You Wanna Make Me Blue)
    Composer(s): Eddie Holland; Norman Whitfield
    Performer(s): The Temptations



    I love you, girl, with all my heart and soul
    I can't understand why you treat me cold
    Your every wish, girl, is my command
    And that's why I can't seem to understand why
    Girl, girl, girl, why you wanna make me blue?
    I'm askin' you girl, girl, girl, why you wanna make me blue?

    One day you say you love me too
    The next day you tell me that we are through
    My love for you is just a game
    But each time we play, girl, my heart feels the pain
    Girl, girl, girl, why you wanna make me blue?
    Oh girl, girl, girl, why you wanna make me blue, so blue?

    Woo Girl, girl, girl, why you wanna make me blue? (make me blue)
    Oh girl, oh girl, oh girl, tell me why can't you be true? (can't be true)
    The way you treat me, it just isn't fair
    You make it so plain you just don't care
    You have a ball around my time
    Of sleepless nights I'm getting tired
    Girl, girl, girl, why you wanna make me blue?
    I'm askin' you girl, girl, girl, why you wanna make me blue, baby?
    Girl, girl, girl, why you wanna make me blue?
    Oh oh girl, girl, girl, why you wanna make me blue?

    Performer(s): The Limeliters
    and various other artists



    Train whistle blowin'
    Makes a sleepy noise
    Underneath their blankets
    Go all the girls and boys

    Rockin', rollin', ridin'
    Out along the bay
    All bound for Morningtown
    Many miles away

    Driver at the engine
    Fireman rings the bell
    Sandman swings the lantern
    To show that all is well

    Rockin', rollin', ridin'
    Out along the bay
    All bound for Morningtown
    Many miles away

    Maybe it is raining
    Where our train will ride
    All the little travellers
    Are warm and snug inside

    Rockin', rollin', ridin'
    Out along the bay
    All bound for Morningtown
    Many miles away

    Somewhere there is sunshine
    Somewhere there is day
    Somewhere there is Morningtown
    Many miles away

    Rockin', rollin', ridin'
    Out along the bay
    All bound for Morningtown
    Many miles away

    Rockin', rollin', ridin'
    Out along the bay
    All bound for Morningtown
    Many miles away

    Vous mes amis, tant de fois vous me dites
    Que d'ici peu je ne serai plus triste
    J'aimerais bien vous croire un jour
    Mais j'en doute avec raison
    Essayez de répondre à ma question

    Qui saura, qui saura, qui saura
    Qui saura me faire oublier dites-moi
    Ma seule raison de vivre
    Essayez de me le dire
    Qui saura, qui saura, oui qui saura

    Vous mes amis essayez de comprendre
    Une seule fille au monde peut me rendre
    Tout ce que j'ai perdu, je sais qu'elle ne reviendra pas
    Alors si vous pouvez dites-le moi

    Qui saura, qui saura, qui saura
    Qui saura me faire vivre d'autres joies
    Je n'avais qu'elle sur terre
    Et sans elle ma vie entière
    Je sais bien que le bonheur n'existe pas

    Vous mes amis le soleil vous inonde
    Vous dites que je sortirai de l'ombre
    J'aimerais bien vous croire oui
    Mais mon coeur y renonce
    Ma question reste toujours sans réponse

    Qui saura, qui saura, qui saura
    Qui saura me faire oublier dites-moi
    Ma seule raison de vivre
    Essayez de me le dire
    Qui saura, qui saura, oui qui saura

    Qui saura, qui saura, qui saura
    Qui saura me faire revivre d'autres joies
    Je n'avais qu'elle sur terre et sans elle ma vie entière
    Je sais bien que le bonheur n'existe pas

    Qui saura, qui saura, qui saura
    Qui saura me faire oublier dites-moi
    Ma seule raison de vivre essayez de me le dire
    Qui saura, qui saura, oui qui saura?

    Chorus:

    I'm a girl watcher, I'm a girl watcher...
    Watchin' girls go by, hey, my my
    I'm a girl watcher, I'm a girl watcher...
    Here comes one now

    I was just a boy when I threw away my toys
    And found a new pastime to dwell on
    Whenever I detects them there of the other sex
    I play the game I do so well on

    (repeat chorus)

    Mumble something tell my my, but you do look swell
    Could you please walk a little slower
    Wonder if you know that you're putting on a show
    Could you please walk a little closer

    Take a letter, Miss Smith
    Yes sir
    You’re typin’ better, Miss Smith
    You know best, sir
    A little closer, my dear
    But I can hear you from here
    Back to business, Miss Smith
    Yes sir

    Just write “My dear Mr. Brown”
    Got it
    Say, what’s his address in town?
    I forgot it
    Why, that’s a lovely perfume
    They call it ‘two in a room’
    Er, back to business, Miss Smith
    Yes sir

    Dear Mr. Brown, in regard to that stock
    Gee, Miss Smith, you’re awfully pretty
    Dear Mr. Brown, in regard to that stock
    Hey boss, you can call me ‘Smitty’
    You’re getting thinner, Miss Smith
    Yes sir
    You need some dinner, Miss Smith
    You know best, sir
    I’ll pick you up about eight
    I promise not to be late
    And we’ll leave the rest to fate
    Yes sir

    Well, good morning, Miss Smith
    Hi boss
    Why’re you yawning, Miss Smith?
    You know why, boss
    The clock struck one at your door
    You hung around until four
    Back to business, Miss Smith
    Er, yes sir

    Now, just write, er “My dear Mr. Brown”
    Right boss
    We really covered the town
    What a night, boss!
    I liked that wonderful show
    I liked the very last row
    Ahem, er, back to business
    Er, yes boss

    Now write this: “Dear Mr. Brown, in regard to that stock”
    Smitty, your eyes are gleaming
    “Dear Mr. Brown, in regard to that stock”
    Gee, boss, I was only dreaming

    Getting tired, Miss Smith?
    Oh, yes sir
    Well, you’re fired, Miss Smith
    You know best, sir
    But I would like to know why
    We’re getting married, you and I
    Tell me, what is your reply?
    Yes sir
    Do I need book and pencil, too?
    All I’ll ever need is you
    You have taken your very last letter, Miss Smith
    Yes sir!

    Morningside
    Composer(s): Neil Diamond
    Performer(s): Neil Diamond;
    Marcus Dagan; Dennis Pavao



    Morningside, the old man died
    And no one cried, they simply turned away
    And when he died
    He left a table filled with nails and pride
    And with his hands he carved these words inside
    "For my children"

    Morning light, morning bright
    I spent the night with dreams that make you weep
    Morning time
    Wash away the sadness from these eyes of mine
    For I recall the words an old man signed
    "For my children"

    And the legs were shaped with his hands
    And the table made with oaken wood
    And the children that sat around this table
    Touched it with their laughter, and that was good

    Morningside, the old man died
    And no one cried, he surely died alone
    And truth is sad
    For not a child would claim the gift he had
    The words he carved became his epitaph......
    "For my children"

    Covered by multiple other artists



    They like to chat about the dresses they will wear tonight
    They chew the fat about their tresses and the neighbours' fight
    Inconsequential things that men don't really care to know
    Become essential things that women find so apropos
    But that's a dame
    They're all the same
    It's just a game
    They call it girl talk, girl talk
    They all me-ouw about the ups and downs of all their friends
    The who, the how, the why, they dish the dirt, it never ends
    The weaker sex, the speaker sex, we mortal males behold
    But though we joke, we wouldn't trade you for a ton of gold
    So baby stay, and gab away
    But hear me say
    That after girl talk
    Talk to me
    But that's a dame
    They're all the same
    It's just a game
    They call it girl talk, girl talk
    So baby stay, and gab away
    But hear me say
    That after girl talk

    Composer(s): R.B. Greaves
    First release by: R.B. Greaves - 1969
    Covered by multiple other artists



    Last night as I got home about a half past ten
    There was the woman I thought I knew
    In the arms of another man
    I kept my cool, I ain't no fool
    Let me tell you what happened then
    I packed some clothes and I walked out
    And I ain't going back again

    So take a letter Maria, address it to my wife
    Say I won't be coming home, gonna start a new life
    So take a letter Maria, address it to my wife
    Send a copy to my lawyer, gotta start a new life

    You've been many things but most of all a good secretary to me
    And it's times like this I feel you've always been close to me
    Was I wrong to work nights to try to build a good lif
    All work and no play has just cost me a wife

    So take a letter Maria, address it to my wife
    Say I won't be coming home, gonna start a new life
    So take a letter Maria, address it to my wife
    Send a copy to my lawyer, gotta start a new life

    When a man loves a woman it's hard to understand
    That she would find more pleasure in the arms of another man
    I never really noticed how sweet you are to me
    It just so happens I'm free tonight
    Would you like to have dinner with me

    So take a letter Maria, address it to my wife
    Say I won't be coming home, gonna start a new life
    So take a letter Maria, address it to my wife
    Send a copy to my lawyer, gotta start a new life

    So take a letter Maria, address it to my wife
    Send a copy to my lawyer, gotta start a new life

    Composer(s): R.B. Greaves - Eddy Mitchell
    Performer(s): Eddy Mitchell - 1969



    Hier
    J'ai vu mourir
    Un grand amour fait pour durer
    L'un de mes meilleurs amis
    A détruit son bonheur passé
    Il est parti de chez lui
    Et s'est rendu à son bureau
    Sa secrétaire se leva
    Mon ami lui dicta ces mots

    Envoie la lettre Maria
    Adressée à ma femme
    Demain quant elle la lira
    Nous serons loin déjà
    Envoie la lettre Maria
    Adressée à ma femme
    Demain quant elle la lira
    Nous serons loin déjà

    C'est dur
    De vivre à deux
    Sans jamais connaître l'ennui
    L'habitude d'être heureux
    A lassé mon meilleur ami
    Il veut
    Changer de vie
    Et connaître d'autres aventures
    Quant à sa femme
    Il l'oublie
    Et provoque ainsi la rupture

    Envoie la lettre Maria
    Adressée à ma femme
    Demain quant elle la lira
    Nous serons loin déjà
    Envoie la lettre Maria
    Adressée à ma femme
    Demain quant elle la lira
    Nous serons loin déjà

    Sa course
    Au bonheur
    N'est pourtant pas prêt de finir
    Il ferme
    Son coeur
    Et n'en finit plus de mentir
    Il est parti de chez lui
    Et s'est rendu à son bureau
    Sa secrétaire se leva
    Mon ami lui dicta ces mots

    Envoie la lettre Maria
    Adressée à ma femme
    Demain quant elle la lira
    Nous serons loin déjà
    Envoie la lettre Maria
    Adressée à ma femme
    Demain quant elle la lira
    Nous serons loin déjà

    Morning Morgantown
    Composer(s): Joni Mitchell
    Performer(s): Joni Mitchell



    When morning comes to Morgantown
    The merchants roll their awnings down
    The milktrucks make their morning rounds
    In morning Morgantown

    We'll rise up early, with the sun
    To ride the bus while everyone is yawning
    And the day is young
    In morning Morgantown

    Morning Morgantown
    Buy your dreams a dollar down
    Morning any town you name
    Morning's just the same

    We'll find a table in the shade
    And sip our tea and lemonade
    And watch the morning on parade
    In morning Morgantown

    Ladies in their rainbow fashions
    Colored stop and go lights flashing
    We'll wink at total strangers passing
    In morning Morgantown

    Morning Morgantown
    Buy your dreams a dollar down
    Morning any town you name
    Morning's just the same

    I'd like to buy you everything
    A wooden bird with painted wings
    A window full of colored rings
    In morning Morgantown

    But the only thing I have to give
    To make you smile, to win you with

    Are all the mornings still to live

    In morning Morgantown

    Girl On A Swing
    Composer(s): Robert Miranda
    Performer(s): Gerry & The Pacemakers;
    The Happenings; Bob Miranda



    I stand out of sight
    And watch as the light from the sun
    Shines through her hair

    From yonder she came
    I don't know her name
    Still I love that girl on a swing

    Girl on a swing, swing high
    Girl on a swing, swing low
    Take all the hate from the world that we're in
    Girl on a swing, swing high
    Girl on a swing, swing low
    And you can cast all your troubles to the wind

    She comes with the light
    Then goes with the night
    My heart just yearns
    But then comes the dawn
    And she returns

    Girl on a swing, swing high
    Girl on a swing, swing low
    Take all the hate from the world that we're in
    Girl on a swing, swing high
    Girl on a swing, swing low
    And you can cast all your troubles to the wind

    Take A Giant Step
    ((Portuguese Version: Dê Um Passo À Frente (The Sunshines) - 1967))
    Composer(s): Gerry Goffin - Carole King
    First release by: The Monkees - 1966
    Covered by multiple other artists



    Though you've played at love and lost
    And sorrow's turned your heart to frost
    I will melt your heart again
    Remember the feeling as a child
    When you woke up and morning smiled
    It's time you felt like you did then
    There's just no percentage in remembering the past
    It's time you learned to live again at last

    Come with me, leave yesterday behind
    And take a giant step outside your mind

    You stare at me in disbelief
    You say for you there's no relieve
    But I swear I'll prove you wrong
    Don't stay in your lonely room
    Just staring back in silent gloom
    That's not where you belong
    Come with me I'll take you where the tast of life is green
    And everyday holds wonders to be seen

    Come with me, leave yesterday behind
    And take a giant step outside your mind

    Morning Hymn
    Performer(s): Bruce Cockburn



    Wind chimes flicker
    Brittle corners slide away
    Smile back at the day
    Shadows flying
    Like the mist before the sun

    See the sadness run
    Silk-spun web of pearls
    Glistens in the grass in summer
    North wind changes all the fields
    To dazzling glass in winter

    Come near to me
    Hear this song I sing to you
    are you singing, too?

    Girl of my dreams, I love you
    Honest I do, you are so sweet
    If I could just hold your charms
    Again in my arms
    Then, life would be complete!

    Since you've been gone, dear
    Life don't seem the same
    Please come back again!

    And after all's said an' done
    There's only one
    Girl of my dreams, it's you!

    Since you've been gone, dear

    Take A Friend
    Composer(s): Geddy Lee - Alex Lifeson
    Performer(s): Rush; Snagglepuss



    Well, I'm lookin' at you
    And I'm wond'rin' what you're gonna do
    Looks like you got no friends
    No one to stick with you till the end

    Take yourself a friend
    Keep 'em till the end
    Whether woman or man
    It makes you feel so good ...
    So good

    Yes, you think you're all right
    But now you're lonely ev'ry night
    Well, you need a friend
    Someone on whom you can always depend

    Take yourself a friend
    Keep 'em till the end
    Whether woman or man
    It makes you feel so good ...
    So good

    Yes, you need some advice
    Well, let me put it to you nice
    I said you need a friend
    Someone who'll stick with you to the end

    Take yourself a friend
    Keep 'em till the end
    Whether woman or man
    It makes you feel so good ...
    So good
