The Birthday Cake Polka Performer(s): "Sheriff" John Rovick
Put another candle on my birthday cake We're gonna bake a birthday cake Put another candle on my birthday cake I'm another year old today
I'm gonna have a party with my birthday cake Come on and take some birthday cake Put another candle on my birthday cake I'm another year old today
We'll have some pie and sandwiches and chocolate ice cream too We'll sing and play the day away and one more thing I'm going to do I'll blow out the candles on my birthday cake and when I do, a wish I'll make Put another candle on my birthday cake I'm another year old today

Feels Like Home Composer(s): Randy Newman Performer(s): Linda Ronstadt; and various other artists
Something in your eyes makes me want to lose myself Makes me want to lose myself, in your arms There's something in your voice makes my heart beat fast Hope this feeling lasts the rest of my life
If you knew how lonely my life has been And how low I've felt so long If you knew how I wanted someone to come along And change my life the way you've done
Chorus: Feels like home to me, feels like home to me Feels like I'm all the way back where I belong Feels like home to me, feels like home to me Feels like I'm all the way back where I belong
A window breaks down a long dark street And a siren wails over my head But I'm all right, 'cause I have you here with me And I can almost see through the dark there's light
If you knew how much this moment means to me And how long I've waited for your touch If you knew how happy you are making me I've never thought I'd love anyone so much
Chorus Feels like home to me, feels like home to me Feels like I'm all the way back where I come from Feels like home to me, feels like home to me Feels like I'm all the way back where I belong
The Birthday Composer(s): Jeff Lynne Performer(s): The Idle Race
She had a birthday yesterday she cried Took off her glasses let her hair down cried
She told them all at work about the day How it is no-one came? Wo-oh woh, oh woh-oh
She sent the invitations to her friends They were too busy doing other things She told them all at work about the day How it is no-one came? Wo-oh woh, oh woh-oh
She took the decorations from the wall Was it the ladder loose that made her fall? She told them all at work about the day How it is no-one came? Wo-oh woh, oh woh-oh
Toco la mañana, cargo el aire, cargo 4 como en aquella canción voy a cantar un poco, voy a tejer siluetas como el día y la noche como el degradée Todo buen comienzo huele a rosa en penumbras como un loco en un jardín Blanco para la flecha, blanco que es armonía flecha que apunta exacto hacia el corazón Canción que cuenta como nace canción de amor que te recuerda canción sobre canción, como rayos de sol Vivimos tras los escenarios tratando de entender un poco canción sobre canción como rayos de sol Vuelan las cenizas de una enagua en plena altura sobre el filo de un placard ella no dice nada sólo se ven sus curvas ella no está y espera su caballo rojo Vuelvo a caminar sobre aquel hilo pentagrama que respira en un papel sigo desarrollando, quiero encender el fuego yo quiero acabar la línea cuando den las diez
Feels Like Forever Composer(s): Bryan Adams; Diane Warren Performer(s): Joe Cocker
I saw you That was all I had to see Why don't you Had to have you next to me From that moment I knew that you'd be all I'd ever need And there's a place inside my heart Nobody's touched before And when I found you I found all that I'd been searching for You turned my world around
All I know Is that it feels like forever All I know Yes I love the way it feels All I see Is how good we are together And I never wanna see it slip away I'll never let you go Is all I know
Hold me Love is you trust in me Is telling me Let's put our hearts and hands and faith Time will tell us If what we've got was worth the wait And there's a fire that's been burning deep inside of me And I don't need nobody else 'Cause now you're here with me You've turned my world around
All I know That it feels like forever All I know Is I love the way it feels All I see Is how good we are together And I never want to see it slip away I'll never let you go Is all I know
I might have never met you At another time or place Never I never could forget you I could never walk away That's all I know 'Cause there's a place inside my heart Nobody's touched before And when I found you I found all that I'd been searching for You've turned my world around
All I know Is it feels like forever All I know Is I love the way it feels All I see is how good we are together And I never want to see it slip away I'll never let you go
All I know Is it feels like forever All I know Is I love the way it feels All I see Is how good we are together And I never want to see it slip away I'll never let you go It's all I know Is it feels like forever All I know Is I love the way it feels All I see Is how good we are together
Feels Like A Woman Composer(s): Tena Clark; Zucchero Performer(s): Zucchero
This is a man Who needs a woman I'm not afraid to say what I feel I'll never ne unfaithful I've been wrong and lived the lonely nights Silence is loud Without her whispers My body craves her touch Such are my prayers Every break of dawn To open my eyes And see her by my side Take it When the earth shakes And the tide breaks Feels like a woman So much power takes my breath away When the sun beats Satin blue sheets Feels like a woman So much power takes my breath away When the sun beats Satin blue sheets Feels like a woman I am sweating, begging her to stay with me This is a man Who needs a woman In all of my world and my nights If I don't live up to this promise Then I'm wrong, I have no right Take it When the earth shakes And the tide breaks Feels like a woman So much power takes my breath away When the sun beats Satin blue sheets Feels like a woman So much power takes my breath away When the earth shakes And the tide breaks Feels like a woman So much power takes my breath away When the sun beats Satin blue sheets Feels like a woman So much power takes my breath away This is a man Who needs a woman I'm not afraid to say what I feel I'll never be unfaithful And I've been wrong, but not tonight
The Birds And The Bees ((Danish Version: Blomster Og Bier (Birthe Kjær) - 1974)) Composer(s): Herb Newman First release by: Jewel Akens - 1964 Covered by multiple other artists
Let me tell you 'bout the birds and the bees And the flowers and the trees And the moon up above And a thing called "Love"
Let me tell you 'bout the stars in the sky And a girl and a guy And the way they could kiss On a night like this
When I look into your big brown eyes It's so very plain to see That it's time you learned about the facts of life Starting from A to Z
Let me tell you 'bout the birds and the bees And the flowers and the trees And the moon up above And a thing called "Love" (Yeah!)

The Bird On My Head Composer(s): Ross Bagdasarian Performer(s): David Seville
(words in brackets are sung by the bird)
I'm just sittin' in a vacant lot with a bird sittin' on my head I'm just sittin' in a vacant lot with a bird sittin' on my head Wicked, wicked, cruel, cruel world What have you done to me? I belong in someone's arms (and I belong in a tree)
Wicked, wicked, cruel, cruel world This is no kind of life I should have a house and bed (and I should have me a wife)
We're just sittin' in a vacant lot and we haven't got a dime The bird and me, lonely as can be, we're together all the time
Wicked, wicked, cruel, cruel world What have you done to me? I belong in someone's arms (and I belong in a tree)
Wicked, wicked, cruel, cruel world What I say is no lie We've been sittin' here so long (that I forgot how to fly)
I'm just sittin' in a vacant lot (and I'm sittin' on his head)
(both) The things we want we haven't got need a tree and house and bed
(both) Wicked, wicked, cruel, cruel world What have you done to me? (He belongs in someone's arms) and he belongs in a tree
(both) Wicked, wicked, cruel, cruel world This is no kind of life (He should have a house and bed) and he should have him a wife
Wicked, wicked, cruel, cruel world What have you done to me? I belong in someone's arms...
Canción Para Un Amigo
Composer(s): J.L. Ubiergo - Fernando Ubiergo
Performer(s): Fernando Ubiergo
No he podido olvidarte amigo mío no he podido sacarte de mi mente ni apagar esa Luna creciente que alumbraba indiferente esa noche en tu camino
No he podido olvidar tu melodía artesano, noble guitarrero más allá de la pala y el sombrero se escondía un hombre bueno con voz de melancolía
Al vuelo 403 llamaron rezaste el Padre Nuestro en el adiós mordiéndote la rabia y la tristeza valiente te pusiste el cinturón y el sol quiso abrazarte esa mañana pero ya estaba escrita, tú última canción
No he podido olvidarte amigo mío pues el tiempo agranda tu recuerdo charrúa de carnet y de nacimiento chileno de razón y sentimiento que en esta tierra hiciste el nido
No he podido olvidar, no lo podría al Quijote que sin armadura defendió su credo y su locura con una guitarra y partituras y desafió a la noche con su vida
Al vuelo 403 llamaron rezaste el Padre Nuestro en el adiós mordiéndote de rabia y de tristeza valiente te pusiste en cinturón y el sol quiso abrazarte esa mañana pero ya estaba escrita, tú última canción

Canción Para Mi Soldado Performer(s): Silvio Rodríguez
Si caigo en el camino hagan cantar mi fusil y ensanchenle su destino porque no debe morir si caigo en el camino como puede suceder que sigo el canto mi amigo cumpliendo con su deber
La muerte pone un dilvido en los oidos del hombre canto que no tiene nombre cancion que busca su trino cumple en la selva destino simple de hombre militante el turno de los instantes de su verdadera suerte como me manda la muerte con su palabra quemante
Si caigo en el camino...
Cancion para mi soldado es la que quiero cantar y con ella confesar que es un canto enamorado el de ayer, el de despues cuando elegimos el rumbo bajo la estrella del Che

The Bird Composer(s): Hal Coleman - Barry Etris Performer(s): Jerry Reed
Well my throat was dry and I was getting late And I was at this bat on the interstate When this guy with a bird on his shoulder walked in the door And he proceeded to tell me the strangest thing He said, Sir this bird of mine can sing like no other bird Youve never heard before! Well I just looked at the guy and said Oh really? And he turned to the bird and saidDo ole Willie When that bird started singing I almost hit the floor Whiskey River take my mind Dont let her memory torture me Whiskey River dont run dry Youre all I got to take care of me Well if that ain't the durndest thing I thought, son, what a heck of a thing A man could get rich making that bird sing And I could feel this wild idear comin' on strong I said, Im just sittin here with two weeks pay And Id probably blow it all anyway Ill buy that bird If hell do one more song Maybe I didnt hold you quite as often as I should have You were always on my mind You were always on my mind I said, well that does it sir, yep Id like to buy that bird Would $500.00 take him off your hands? Well, he thought for a while and he said, alright He handed me the bird and he said goodnight Counted the money and out the door he ran I was thinkin Id found the rainbows end My ship would soon be rolling in When that bird sailed out the door And he was gone And as I watched him leave I got boilin mad Cause I knew right then that Id been had And as he faded in the night he was singing this song On the road again I just cant wait to get on the road again (Somebody stop that bird!) The life I love is making money with my friend And I cant wait to get on the road again
