    Composer(s): Brian Howe - Mick Ralphs
    Performer(s): Bad Company



    Ooh yeah, ooh yeah
    You got me cornered, there's no getting out alive
    So wait a minute, woman, I need to switch out that light
    We're a bad match, babe, you never know what's good for you
    There's somethin' not right, I'm gonna tell you what to do
    For 24 hours, you been comin' on so strong
    Baby, I'm gettin' nervous, and pretty soon I'm gonna prove you wrong
    I've gotta tell it like it is - I know it's down to me
    Can't go on like this - our love is history
    I'm gonna burn this bridge - you just wait and see
    Tell it like it is - uh huh, hey
    Face to face, a day I will never forget
    Well I was beggin' for your love, you said you're not ready yet
    Hey we've come a long way, babe, there's nothin', nothin' I won't do
    And well I warn you tonight, my love is hot, I'm comin' for you
    For 24 hours, you've been puttin' me on
    Maybe I'm gettin' nervous, and pretty soon I'm gonna prove you wrong
    I've gotta tell it like it is - I know it's down to me
    Can't go on like this - our love is history
    I'm gonna burn this bridge - just you wait and see
    I'm gonna tell it like it is - uh huh, hey

    For 24 hours, you been comin' on so strong
    Maybe I'm nervous, pretty soon I'm gonna prove you wrong
    I'm gonna tell it like it is - I know it's down to me
    I can't go on like this - watch your step, it's history
    Gonna burn this bridge - you just wait and see
    Tell it like it is - yeah uh huh
    Tell it like it is - wait and see
    Can't go on like this - our love is history
    I'm gonna burn this bridge - I'm gonna burn you down
    I'm gonna tell it like it is - I'm waitin', I'm waitin'
    Tell it - tell it - tell it - tell it - tell it - tell it - tell it like it is
    No, you know it's still down to me
    I said tell it - tell it - tell it - tell it - tell it - tell it like it is
    You're history
    You've gotta tell it, tell it, tell it!

    My Heart Tells Me
    Composer(s): Mack Gordon; Harry Warren
    Originally performed by: Betty Grable
    Covered by various other artists



    My heart tells me this is just a fling
    Yet you say our love means everything
    Do you mean what you are saying
    Or is this a little game we're playing
    My heart tells me I will cry again
    Lips that kiss like yours could lie again
    If I'm fool enough to see this through
    Will I be sorry if I do
    Should I believe my heart or you

    My heart tells me I will cry again
    Lips that kiss like yours could lie again
    If I'm fool enough to see this through
    Will I be sorry if I do
    Should I believe my heart or you

    Performer(s): Leadbelly;
    and various other artists



    Irene good night Irene good night
    Good night Irene Good night Irene
    I'll see you in my dreams

    Last Saturday night I got married
    Me and my wife settled down
    Now me and my wife have parted
    I'm gonna take a little stroll downtown

    Irene good night Irene good night
    Good night Irene Good night Irene
    I'll see you in my dreams

    Some times I live in the country
    Some times I live in town
    Some times I take a great notion
    To jump in the river and drown

    Irene good night Irene good night
    Good night Irene Good night Irene
    I'll see you in my dreams

    Quit your rambling quit your gambling
    Stop staying out late at night
    Stay home with your wife and family
    And stay by the fireside of right

    Irene good night Irene good night
    Good night Irene Good night Irene
    I'll see you in my dreams
    Irene good night Irene good night
    Good night Irene Good night Irene
    I'll see you in my dreams

    ----------

    Parody Version:
    Performer(s): Judy Garland; Bob Hope; Bing Crosby



    Irene Goodnight
    Irene Goodnight
    Goodnight Irene
    Goodnight Irene
    We'll see you in our dreams

    Sometimes she sleeps in pajamas
    Sometimes she sleeps in a gown
    But when they both in the laundrey
    Irene is the talk of the town

    Irene Goodnight
    Irene Goodnight
    Goodnight Irene
    Goodnight Irene
    We'll see you in our dreams

    Irene never goes off to Dreamland
    Till she's combed every hair in her head
    She puts it all up neat in curlers
    Then she hangs it on the post of the bed

    Irene Goodnight
    Irene Goodnight
    Goodnight Irene
    Goodnight Irene
    We'll see you in our dreams

    A burgler broke in Irenes bedroom
    The dear girl was sleeping in peace
    Then Irene she fought like a tiger
    Till the burgler called the police

    Irene Goodnight
    Irene Goodnight
    Cut out missing a dream drink Ovaltine
    Or just drop dead Irene!

    Composer(s): Lee Diamond - George Richard Davis
    First release by: Aaron Neville - 1966
    Covered by multiple other artists



    If you want something to play with
    Go and find yourself a toy
    Baby my time is too expensive
    And I'm not a little boy

    If you are serious
    Don't play with my heart it makes me furious
    But if you want me to love you
    Then baby I will, girl you know I will

    Tell it like it is
    Don't be ashamed to let your conscience be your guide
    But I-I-I-I-I know deep down inside of me
    I believe you love me, forget your foolish pride

    Life is too short to have sorrow
    You may be here today and gone tomorrow
    You might as well get what you want
    So go on and live, baby, go on and live

    Tell it like it is
    I'm nothin' to play with, go and find yourself a toy
    But I-I-I-I-I
    Tell it like it is
    My time is too expensive
    And I'm not your little boy

    Mm mm, tell it like it is

    My Heart Stood Still
    Composer(s): Richard Rodgers; Lorenz Hart
    Originally performed by: Jessie Matthews
    Covered by various other artists



    I took one look at you
    That's all I meant to do
    And then my heart stood still

    My feet could step and walk
    My lips could move and talk
    And yet my heart stood still

    Though not a single word was spoken
    I could tell you knew
    That unfelt clasp of hands
    Told me so well you knew
    I never lived at all
    Until the thrill of that moment
    When my heart stood still

    I took one look at you
    That's all I meant to do
    And then my heart stopped right there

    My feet could step and walk
    My lips could move and talk
    And yet my heart stood still

    Though not a single word was spoken
    I could tell you knew
    That unfelt claps of hands
    Told me so well you knew
    I never lived at all
    Until the thrill of that moment
    When my heart stood still

    Goodnight Children Everywhere
    Composer(s): Gabriel Rogers; Harry Phillips
    Performer(s): Vera Lynn; Joe Loss;
    Harry Roy; Sixpence None The Richer



    Sleepy little eyes in a sleepy little head
    Sleepy time is drawing near
    In a little while, you'll be tucked up in your bed
    Here's a song for baby, dear

    Goodnight, children, everywhere
    Your Mummy thinks of you tonight
    Lay your head upon your pillow
    Don't be a kid or a weeping willow

    Close your eyes and say a prayer
    And surely you can find a kiss to spare
    Tho you are far away, she's with you night and day
    Goodnight, children, everywhere.

    Soon the moon will rise and caress you with its beams
    While the shadows softly creep
    With a happy smile, you'll be wrapped up in your dreams
    Baby will be fast asleep

    Goodnight, children, everywhere
    Your Mummy thinks of you tonight
    Lay your head upon your pillow
    Don't be a kid or a weeping willow

    Close your eyes and say a prayer
    And surely you can find a kiss to spare
    Tho you are far away, she's with you night and day
    Goodnight, children, everywhere

    Tell It All Brother
    Composer(s): Alex Harvey
    Performer(s): Kenny Rogers



    Tell it all brother, before we fall
    Tell it all brothers and sisters
    Tell it all

    How much you're holding back on me
    When you say you're giving all?
    And in the dungeons of your mind
    Who you got chained to the wall?

    Tell it all brother, before we fall
    Tell it all brothers and sisters
    Tell it all

    Did you plant your feet on higher ground
    To avoid life's mud and stone?
    Did you ever kick a good man
    When he was down, just to make yourself feel strong?

    Tell it all brother, before we fall
    Tell it all brothers and sisters
    Tell it all

    Tomorrow just might be too late
    Now is the time
    To get your jumbled mind straight
    And seek a new design

    Did you ever walk for a crippled man
    Pretending you were lame?
    And what made you think one feeble hand to God
    Was gonna make him call your name?

    Tell it all brother and sisters
    Tell, Tell it all
    Tell it all brother, before we fall
    Tell it all brothers and sisters, tell
    Tell it all brother, before we fall
    Tell it all...

    I hear the sound of music
    Your favorite kind of music

    I see the summer roses
    Your favorite shade of roses
    And that reminds me too of you, Dear

    If I could hear no music
    If there could be no roses
    No summer nights to make me dream as I do
    I still would not forget you
    One thing would still be true
    My heart reminds me I love you

    If I could hear no music
    If there could be no roses
    No summer nights to make me dream as I do
    I still would not forget you
    One thing would still be true
    My heart reminds me I love you

    Goodnight baby
    You know I hate to leave you now
    Keep on bein' my lady
    And I'll see you tomorrow somehow
    Right now it's-a good night baby, baby goodnight

    Bridge:
    Every time I turn to walk away
    I feel the power of love comin' on
    The look in your eyes seems to tell you
    You feel the same way after I'm gone

    Hurts to leave you, but...
    Goodnight baby, baby goodnight
    And if you wake up feelin' lonely
    You can call me any time

    (repeat bridge)

    I'd better get away, say
    Goodnight baby, baby goodnight
    I'll go on, baby I know
    I feel the power of love, etc.

    Tell me once more, my one and only
    oh tell me once more
    I love you!

    Wherever I am

    I want to drink your breath
    and kneel adoringly at your feet
    yours, yours alone!
    How wonderful is your shining hair!
    Dreamy and full of longing
    is your radiant gaze
    Your voice is music to my ears

    Je n'suis sans doute pas très vieux

    Quand une fille te rend malheureux
    Pleure pas tous les jours
    Si tu veux qu'elle te voie
    Et qu'elle s'attache à toi
    Si tu veux qu'elle ne soit
    Vraiment rien qu'à toi

    Dis-lui, dis-lui, oh dis-lui, oui dis-le-lui

    Je n'suis sans doute pas très vieux

    Si tu veux enfin être heureux
    Sors donc au grand jour
    N'attends pas demain
    Pour crier cet amour
    Prends-la par la main
    Sans plus de détour et

    Dis-lui que tu l'aimes à la folie

    My Heart Is Like A Clock
    Composer(s): Smokey Robinson; Mary Wells
    Performer(s): Mary Wells



    You broke my heart, and in that moment it stopped
    Just like a clock that has been dropped
    I thought that everything was fine
    And that our love was gonna last
    And yet we're running out of time
    Just like the sand in a glass
    Now every moment seems like an hour
    Every hour like a day ever since you went away

    My heart is running down
    Just like a clock, it needs to be wound
    Before it stops
    And only your kiss can wind it up and make it get started
    Your kiss can wind it up and make it get started
    So come on & wind it up before I wind up broken-hearted

    My heart is running down
    Just like a clock, it needs to be wound
    Before it stops
    And only your kiss can wind it up and make it get started
    Your kiss can wind it up and make it get started
    So come on & wind it up before I wind up broken-hearted

    And make it get started, oh oh
    Don't wanna be broken-hearted, oh oh
    (Only your kiss can wind it up) ...

    Performer(s): Roy Orbison



    My lovely woman child
    I found you out running wild with someone new
    You've been untrue
    And everybody knows we're through
    But I can't say good-bye to you
    No matter what you do
    My heart won't let you go

    Although I know you go with someone new
    I think of you
    I think of how you kiss
    Your tenderness, with all of this
    I miss the way you say goodnight
    Bittersweet your kisses
    When my heart still misses
    The way that things used to be
    But I know you're strong for other arms you long for
    And you can never come back to me

    Not just for yesterday
    Tonight or tomorrow
    Ah, but forever, I'll hear you say goodnight
    Goodnight, goodnight turned out to be a lie
    And I can't help it if I cry
    Goodnight, my love, sleep tight, my love, goodnight

    ((French Version: Dis-Lui (Claude François) - 1963))
    Composer(s): Bert Russell - Suzy Baels - Robert Mellin
    Performer(s): Lisa Del Bo - 1996



    Eén keer slaap ik nog alleen
    Dit wordt een lange nacht
    Ik wou dat het zonlicht al scheen
    Ik lig te woelen

    Uren kruipen voorbij
    Ik vraag me af of jij
    Aan me denken zou
    ‘k Hou zoveel van jou

    Morgen zal ik aan je zijde lopen
    Morgen gaat de hemel voor me open
    Morgen, morgen
    Ja, morgen ben ik van jou

    Eén keer slaap ik nog alleen
    En dan lig ik naast jou
    Eén keer daarna nooit meer alleen
    Het wordt een sprookje

    Uren kruipen voorbij
    De tijd staat stil voor mij
    Jij spookt door mijn hoofd
    Door geluk verdoofd

    Morgen zal ik aan je zijde lopen
    Morgen gaat de hemel voor me open
    Morgen, morgen
    Ja, morgen ben ik van jou

    Ik zie een ring, een bruidsboeket
    Ik voel betovering met jou hier aan mijn zijde
    Ik wil jou beloven schat dat ik jou bekoren zal
    Jij bent de ware voor mij

    Eén keer slaap ik nog alleen
    Ik slaap niet maar ik droom
    Over hoe het morgen zal zijn
    Als jij zal komen

    Uren kruipen voorbij
    De tijd staat stil voor mij
    ‘k Wil de jouwe zijn
    Reeds de jouwe zijn

    Morgen zal ik aan je zijde lopen
    Morgen gaat de hemel voor me open
    Morgen, morgen
    Ja, morgen ben ik van jou
    Oh, ik wacht tot morgen

    Morgen zal ik aan je zijde lopen
    Morgen gaat de hemel voor me open
    Morgen, morgen
    Ja, morgen ben ik van jou
    Ja, ik wacht tot morgen

    Morgen zal ik aan je zijde lopen
    Morgen gaat de hemel voor me open
    Morgen, morgen
    Ja, morgen ben ik van jou

    My Heart Is In Ireland
    Composer(s): Brian Warfield
    Performer(s): Wolfe Tones



    In the East End of London, I met an old man
    He kept a bar called the Horses and Tram
    "My parents were Irish
    They loved that dear land"
    The Cockney, he smiled, then he shook my old hand

    "My heart is in Ireland, it's there I long to be
    Her hills and her valleys are calling to me
    Though born here in this land, my heart is in Ireland
    The land of the old folks is calling to me"

    Near a coal mine in Wales, by a roadside cafe
    A young girl came smiling, and to me did say
    "Well, my folks are from Ireland. My Da', he hopes one day
    When he leaves the mines, sure we'll go back to stay"

    "My heart is in Ireland, it's there I long to be
    Her hills and her valleys are calling to me
    Though born here in this land, my heart is in Ireland
    The land of the old folks is calling to me"
    Then I went through the Midlands, through each city and town
    I found there were Irish in each place I roamed
    And I drank and I sang at a pub they call the Crown
    With the Birmingham irish, we sang songs of home

    "My heart is in Ireland, it's there I long to be
    Her hills and her valleys are calling to me
    Though born here in this land, my heart is in Ireland
    The land of the old folks is calling to me"

    Then I went north to Scotland, to Glasgow on the Clyde
    I met with some young lads. They said, "Celtic's our side
    All our folks are from Ireland, the island of the green
    A country we love, but a place we've not seen"

    "My heart is in Ireland, it's there I long to be
    Her hills and her valleys are calling to me
    Though born here in this land, my heart is in Ireland
    The land of the old folks is calling to me"

    Goodness Gracious Me
    Composer(s): Herbert Kretzmer; David Lee
    Performer(s): Peter Sellers & Sophia Loren



    Her: Oh doctor, I'm in trouble
    Him: Well, goodness gracious me
    Her: For every time a certain man
    Is standing next to me
    Him: Mmm?
    Her: A flush comes to my face
    And my pulse begins to race
    It goes boom boody-boom boody-boom boody-boom
    Boody-boom boody-boom boody-boom-boom-boom
    Him: Oh!
    Her: Boom boody-boom boody-boom boody-boom
    Him: Well, goodness gracious me

    Him: How often does this happen?
    When did the trouble start?
    You see, my stethoscope is bobbing
    To the throbbing of your heart
    Her: What kind of man is he
    To create this allergy?
    It goes boom boody-boom boody-boom boody-boom
    Boody-boom boody-boom boody-boom-boom-boom
    Him: Oh!
    Her: Boom boody-boom boody-boom boody-boom
    Him: Well, goodness gracious me

    Him: From New Delhi to Darjeeling
    I have done my share of healing
    And I've never yet been beaten or outboxed
    I remember that with one jab
    Of my needle in the Punjab
    How I cleared up beriberi
    And the dreaded dysentery
    But your complaint has got me really foxed
    Her: Oh

    Her: Oh doctor, touch my fingers
    Him: Well, goodness gracious me
    Her: You may be very clever
    But however, can't you see
    My heart beats much too much
    At a certain tender touch
    It goes boom boody-boom boody-boom boody-boom
    Boody-boom boody-boom boody-boom-boom-boom
    Him: I like it!
    Her: Boom boody-boom boody-boom boody-boom
    Him: Well, goodness gracious me

    Him: Can I see your tongue?
    Her: Aaah
    Him: Nothing the matter with it, put it away please
    Her: Maybe it's my back
    Him: Maybe it is
    Her: Shall I lie down?
    Him: Yes
    Her: Ahhh...

    Him: My initial diagnosis
    Rules out measles and thrombosis
    Sleeping sickness and, as far as I can tell
    Influenza, inflammation
    Whooping cough and night starvation
    And you'll be so glad to hear
    That both your eyeballs are so clear
    That I can positively swear that you are well
    Ja-ja, ja-ja-ja-ja

    Her: Put two and two together
    Him: Four
    Her: If you have eyes to see
    The face that makes my pulses race
    Is right in front of me
    Him: Oh, there is nothing I can do
    For my heart is jumping too
    Both: Oh, we go boom boody-boom boody-boom boody-boom
    Boody-boom boody-boom boody-boom-boom-boom
    Her: Goodness gracious
    Him: How audacious!
    Her: Goodness gracious
    Him: How flirtatious!
    Her: Goodness gracious
    Him: It is me
    Her: It is you?
    Him: Ah, I'm sorry, it is us
    Both: Ahhh!

    Tell Him
    ((Czech Version: Toužíš (Helena Vondrácková s Lucií Bílou) - 2005))
    Composer(s): Walter Afanasieff - Linda Thompson - David Foster
    First release by: Barbra Streisand & Celine Dion - 1997



    I'm scared
    So afraid to show I care
    Will he think me weak
    If I tremble when I speak
    Oooh - what if
    There's another one he's thinking of
    Maybe he's in love
    I'd feel like a fool
    Life can be so cruel
    I don't know what to do

    I've been there
    With my heart out in my hand
    But what you must understand
    You can't let the chance
    To love him pass you by

    Should I

    Tell him
    Tell him that the sun and moon
    Rise in his eyes
    Reach out to him
    And whisper
    Tender words so soft and sweet
    Hold him close to feel his heart beat
    Love will be the gift you give yourself

    Touch him
    With the gentleness you feel inside
    Your love can't be denied
    The truth will set you free
    You'll have what's mean to be
    All in time you'll see

    I love him
    Of that much I can be sure
    I don't think I could endure
    If I let him walk away
    When I have so much to say

    I'll

    Love is light that surely glows
    In the hearts of those who know
    It's a steady flame that grows
    Feed the fire with all the passion you can show
    Tonight love will assume its place
    This memory time cannot erase
    Blind faith will lead love where it has to go

    Never let him go

    My Heart Is Empty
    Composer(s): Nico
    Performer(s): Nico



    "My heart is empty
    But the songs I sing
    Are filled with love for you"

    A man said that to me
    That's how I know

    Sometimes love it does not show
    Sometimes it does not even know
    There is no witness to my anger
    When it stabs until he dies
    I am looking for the strangler
    To help me, help me with my crime

    Show me the way to warning
    Warning for the morning light
    I will stab it with a knife
    The blinding sun
    The heartbeat for the time to come

    The honesty
    That lies to you

    My heart is empty
    But the songs I sing
    Are filled with love for you
