    The Brightest Smile In Town
    Composer(s): Ray Charles - Barry DeVorzon - Bob Sherman
    Performer(s): Ray Charles
    and multiple other artists



    Some people cry the blues, I never could
    I had no time for tears, life was too good
    I had the brightest smile in town, oh yeah
    Till you came along, and you turned it upside down

    Everything went my way, life was a ball
    But then you came along and changed it all
    You took the brightest smile in town
    Yeah you took it baby, and you turned it upside down

    You brought me love, oh tender love
    That made my whole world glow
    And then you took it all away
    Just why, I'll never know

    I'll soon forget in time, And smile again
    But I can never smile as I did then
    You took the brightest smile in town, oh Yeah
    You took it baby, and you turned it upside down

    Baby, woooh, yeah baby, you turned it upside down

    50 Ways To Leave Your Lover
    Composer(s): Paul Simon First release: Paul Simon - 1975 Covered by multiple other artists

    Versions In Other Languages: 1976 - Gute Gründe, Um Zu Gehen (Daliah Lavi) 1979 - Trente Manières De Quitter Une Fille (Michel Delpech) 2005 - 50 Plus (Tom Van Stiphout en Paul Poelmans)



    The problem is all inside your head she said to me
    The answer is easy if you take it logically
    I'd like to help you in your struggle to be free
    There must be fifty ways to leave your lover

    She said it's really not my habit to intrude
    Furthermore, I hope my meaning won't be lost or misconstrued
    But I'll repeat myself at the risk of being crude
    There must be fifty ways to leave your lover
    Fifty ways to leave your lover

    You just slip out the back, Jack
    Make a new plan, Stan
    You don't need to be coy, Roy
    Just get yourself free
    Hop on the bus, Gus
    You don't need to discuss much
    Just drop off the key, Lee
    And get yourself free

    She said it grieves me so to see you in such pain
    I wish there was something I could do to make you smile again
    I said I appreciate that and would you please explain
    About the fifty ways

    She said why don't we both just sleep on it tonight
    And I believe in the morning you'll begin to see the light
    And then she kissed me and I realized she probably was right
    There must be fifty ways to leave your lover
    Fifty ways to leave your lover

    You just slip out the back, Jack
    Make a new plan, Stan
    You don't need to be coy, Roy
    Just get yourself free
    Hop on the bus, Gus
    You don't need to discuss much
    Just drop off the key, Lee
    And get yourself free

    Performer(s): Rick Nelson
    and multiple other artists



    The bridge washed out I can't swim and my baby's on the other side
    When I awoke this a morning the rain was a pouring down
    I was gonna wed the little river girl just over the bridge across town
    Now I'm a runnin' up and down the river and my nerves are drivin' me wild
    Because the bridge washed out I can't swim and my baby's on the other side
    Rain oh rain stop a fallin' dark clouds hurry from the sky
    The preacher and my bride are waitin' and the weddin' bells are startin' to chime
    I can't kiss and hold her and it's drivin' me out of my mind
    'Cause the bridge washed out I can't swim and my baby's on the other side

    Now I got one foot in the river one foot solid on the ground
    I try to swim that ragin' old river but I know if I try I'd drown
    There's not a boat around me they walked on out with the tide
    'Cause the bridge washed out I can't swim and my baby's on the other side
    'Cause the bridge washed out I can't swim and my baby's on the other side

    Can't Smile Without You Composer(s): Chris Arnold - David Martin - Geoff Morrow First release by: David Martin - 1975 Covered by multiple other artists



    You know I can't smile without you
    I can't smile without you
    I can't laugh and I can't sing
    I'm finding' it hard to do anything

    You see I feel sad when you're sad
    I feel glad when you're glad
    If you only knew what I'm going through
    I just can't smile without you

    You came along just like a song
    And brightened my day
    Who'd believed that you were part of a dream?
    Now it all seems light years away

    And now you know I can't smile without you
    I can't smile without you
    I can't laugh and I can't sing
    I'm finding' it hard to do anything

    You see, I feel sad when you're sad
    I feel glad when you're glad
    If you only knew what I'm going through
    I just can't smile without you

    Now some people say happiness takes so very long to find
    Well I'm finding it hard leaving' your love behind me

    And you see I can't smile without you
    I can't smile without you
    I can't laugh and I can't sing
    I'm finding' it hard to do anything

    You see I feel glad when you're glad
    I feel sad when you're sad
    If you only knew what I'm going through
    I just can't smile without you...

    Fifty Percent
    Composer(s): Billy Goldenberg;
    Alan Bergman; Marilyn Bergman
    Performer(s): Helen Reddy;
    and various other artists



    I don't iron his shirts
    I don't sew on his buttons
    I don't know all the jokes he tells
    Or the songs he hums
    Though I may hold him all through the night
    He may not be here when the morning comes

    I don't pick out his ties
    Or expect his tomorrows
    But I feel when he's in my arms
    He's where he wants to be

    We have no memories
    Bittersweet with time
    And I doubt if he'll spend New Year's Eve with me

    I don't share his name
    I don't wear his ring
    There's no piece of paper saying that he's mine
    But he says he loves me, and I believe it's true
    Doesn't that make someone belong to you

    So I don't share his name
    So I don't wear his ring
    So there's no piece of paper saying that he's mine
    So we have don't have the memories
    I have enough memories
    I've watched enough mornings
    I've cried enough evenings
    I've had enough birthdays to know what I want

    Like there's anyone's guess
    It's a constant surprise
    Though you don't plan to fall in love
    When you fall you fall

    I'd rather have fifty percent of him
    Or any percent of him
    Than all of anybody else at all

    Covered by multiple other artists



    The breeze and I are saying with a sigh
    That you no longer care
    The breeze and I are whispering goodbye
    To dreams we used to share

    Ours was a love song that seemed constant as the moon
    Ending in a strange, mournful tune
    And all about me, they know you have departed without me
    And we wonder why, the breeze and I
    The breeze and I

    I'm sad, I got the blues
    Can't shake the sands of Texas from my shoes

    I sigh, and don't know why
    I guess I got those dear old Texas blues

    The smell of the rain, the roll of the plain
    The feel of my seat in the saddle
    I'd give all I own if I could be home
    Back on the range punchin' cattle

    I guess I got the blues
    Can't shake the sands of Texas from my shoes

    Fifty Million Frenchmen Can't Be Wrong
    Composer(s): Fred Fisher; Willie Raskin; Billy Rose
    Performer(s): Sophie Tucker



    They say the French are naughty
    They say the French are bad
    They all declare that over there
    The French are going mad
    They have a reputation of being very gay
    I just got back from Paris, and I just want to say

    When they go parley-vee and parley-vou
    This for me, zat for you
    Fifty million Frenchmen can't be wrong
    When they go
    Ohh la la la la la la la
    On the bully boulevard
    Fifty million Frenchmen can't be wrong

    They shake-a the hand
    They shake-a the feet
    They roll ze eyes and kiss cafe right on the street
    Even though the Irish and the Dutch
    Say it don't amount to much
    Fifty million Frenchmen can't be wrong

    All of our fashions come from gay Par-ee
    And if they come above the knee
    Fifty million Frenchmen can't be wrong
    And if they give the world a new design
    To prove a lady has a spine
    Fifty million Frenchmen can't be wrong

    They shorten them here
    They shorten them there
    And if her name is Teddy, they make Teddy bare
    If they prefer to see their women dressed
    With more or less of less and less
    Fifty million Frenchmen can't be wrong

    When they put on a show, and it's a hit
    No one tries to censor it
    Fifty million Frenchmen can't be wrong
    And when a book is selling at it's best
    It isn't stopped; it's not suppressed
    Fifty million Frenchmen can't be wrong

    Whenever they're dry
    For brandy or rye
    To get it, they don't gave to give up their right eye
    And when we brag about our liberty
    And they laugh at you and you and you and me
    Fifty million Frenchmen can't be wrong

    In Viva la France
    They're full of romance
    You'll find policemen with embroidery on their pants
    And when they start to sing the Marseillaise
    They sing it forty different ways
    Fifty million Frenchmen can't be wrong

    Covered by multiple other artists



    Oh you have such a pretty face
    You favor a girl I once knew
    I imagine that she's in Tennessee
    Oh Lord I should be there too

    But I left Tennessee in a hurry dear
    The same way that I'm leaving you
    For love is mainly just memories
    And everyone's got them but few

    It's a brand new Tennessee waltz
    You're literally just waltzing on air
    It's a brand new Tennessee waltz
    With no telling who will be there

    When I leave it'll be like I found you love
    Descending victorian stairs
    I'm feeling like one of your photographs
    With not even you left to care

    Have all your passionate violins play
    A tune for a Tennessee kid
    Who's feeling like leaving another town
    With no place to go if he did

    Can't Shake Loose Composer(s): Russ Ballard First release by: Agnetha Fältskog - 1983



    I don't wanna stay here but I can't leave
    I'm in the spell of the magic you weave
    Somebody wake me up
    I wish I could break it up
    But I can't shake loose
    Can't shake loose
    I can't shake loose
    Can't shake loose
    Any move I'll make in the end I will loose
    I can't shake loose
    I try and I try but it ain't no use
    I could go like I did before
    But these old shoes keep walking to your door

    I wanna hide but when I hear you call
    If I turn around I know I will fall
    One step people shake
    No matter what move I make

    Cos' I can't shake loose
    Can't shake loose
    I can't shake loose
    Can't shake loose
    Any move I'll make in the end I will loose......
    I don't wanna stay here
    But you know I can't leave
    Please let me go dear
    Please let me leave

    I can't shake loose
    I can't shake loose
    I can't shake loose
    Can't shake loose
    Any move I'll make in the end I will loose
    I can't shake loose
    I try and I try but it ain't no use
    I could go like I did before
    But these old shoes keep walking to your door
    I can't shake loose......

    Fifteen Years Ago
    Composer(s): Ray Smith
    Performer(s): Conway Twitty; Daryle Singletary;
    The Statler Brothers; Billy Walker



    I saw a man today who said he'd talked to you
    Not so long ago I think a month or two
    As my mind goes back in time I pray
    Oh lord don't let it show
    He thinks I forgot you fifteen years ago

    Fifteen years ago and I still feel the same
    Why did he have to mention your name
    I'm as broken up inside as if it's been a week ago
    It takes a mighty long time
    To get a real love off your mind
    I know I've tried since fifteen years ago

    I've got a lovely wife who thinks the world of me
    Promised her my love through all eternity
    I've tried hard to make her happy
    But so far she doesn't know
    I can't shake this thing from fifteen years ago

    Fifteen years ago and I still feel the same
    Why did he have to mention your name
    I'm as broken up inside as if it's been a week ago
    It takes a mighty strong love
    To keep a man thinking of a girl
    He hasn't seen since fifteen years ago

    It takes a mighty long time
    To get a real love off your mind
    I know I've tried since fifteen years ago

    The Bragging Song
    (aka "I Was Born Ten Thousand Years Ago"; "I Was Born About Ten Thousand Years Ago"; "I Was Borned About Four Thousand Years Ago"; "The Liar")
    (Traditional)
    Performer(s): Kelly Harrell
    and multiple other artists



    I was born ten thousand years ago
    And there's nothing in this world that I don't know
    I saw Pater, Paul, and Moses playing ring around the roses
    And I'll lick the guy that say it isn't so

    I saw Satan when he looked the garden o'er
    I saw Eve and Adam driven from the door
    And behind the bushes peepin', saw the apple they were eatin'
    And I swear that I'm the guy that ate the core

    I saw Jonah when he was within the whale
    And thought he'd never live to tell the tale
    But old Jonah'd eaten garlic, and he gave the whale the colic
    So he coughed him up and let him out of jail

    I saw Israel in the battle of the Nile
    The arrows were flying thick and fast and wild
    I saw David with his sling pop Goliath on the wing
    I was doing forty seconds to the mile

    I saw Sampson when he laid the village cold
    Saw Daniel tame the lions in their hold
    I helped build the Tower of Babel up as high as they were able
    And there's many other things I haven't told

    I taught Soloman his little A-B-C's
    I helped Brigham Young to make limberger cheese
    And while sailing down the bay with Methusala one day
    I saved his flowing whiskers from the breeze

    Queen Elizabeth, she fell in love with me
    We were married in Milwaukee secretly
    But I schemed around and shook her, then she went with General Hooker
    To shoot mosquitoes down in Tenessee

    I remember when the country had a king
    I saw Cleopatra pawn her wedding ring
    And I saw th flags a'flyin' when George Washington stopped lyin'
    On the night when Patty first begin to sing

    So, you see I am an educated man
    To keep my brains in my head I plan
    Cause I been on earth so long, that I use to sing a song
    While Abraham and Issac played the band

    I was born ten thousand years ago
    And there's nothing in this world that I don't know
    I saw Peter, Paul and Moses playing ring-around-the-roses
    And I can lick the guy that says it is'nt so

    Can't Set Rules About Love Composer(s): Adam Ant - Marco Pirroni Performer(s): Adam & the Ants



    I feel suspended in space
    In another time and place
    To talk would burst the bubble
    Just want to lie next to you
    And appreciate the view
    And hope it lasts forever

    We do not have to play games
    Or listen to all the names
    They have for Russian roulette
    If it's good enough for the gemini guys
    Then it's good enough for me

    You can't set rules about love
    You can't set rules about love

    So the I becomes we
    We make our own chemistry
    To move is too much trouble
    I hope we won't separate
    Return to our normal state
    As long as we're together

    So if it's yes or it's no
    Chime time says the radio
    Why don't you kiss me deadly
    If and when you slip away
    Just don't let me hear you say
    Good morning and goodbye

    Revolution -- the fourth and final part
    Revolution -- afterplay with my heart

    Forever I'll enjoy you undertaking
    Come to see you every day now if I can
    Is it not the time for everybody
    I still wake on the fields of regret

    There is something to this dream we're all involved in
    Can I see it? Can I say it may exist?
    Why then don't the night show really matters
    If we dwell in the fields of regret

    What horror must invade the mind
    When the approaching judge shall find
    Sinful Deeds from all mankind

    With death and nature in surprise
    Behold the wretched sinners rise
    To meet the judge's searching eyes

    And when the doomed no more can flee
    From the flames of misery
    Assist me while I die

    Wander through those ever thoughts though if imagined
    But come down on it's so easy to resist
    Rest me, hide my years upon the planet
    Sound another, no part over, won't forget
    When we laugh at the fields of regret

    Who was bringing up three very lovely girls
    All of them had hair of gold, like their mother
    The youngest one in curls

    Here's the story, of a man named Brady
    Who was busy with three boys of his own
    They were four men, living all together
    Yet they were all alone

    Till the one day when the lady met this fellow
    And they knew it was much more than a hunch
    That this group would somehow form a family
    That's the way we all became the Brady Bunch
    The Brady Bunch
    That's the way we all became the Brady Bunch
    The Brady Bunch

    Can't Say Goodbye Composer(s): Bobby Caldwell - George "Chocolate" Perry Performer(s): Bobby Caldwell



    Ever since the day we met
    I knew that I would not regret
    I could never leave you for another
    But you treat me like a fool
    I can't keep on being cool
    Now I need some time just to recover
    With a ticket to a distant place
    I could leave you far behind
    Your love has put me into outer space
    I'm about to lose my mind
    There are things about you
    I will never understand
    And although our love
    Is not exactly what I planned
    It was meant to be
    Darling can't you see
    You and I just can't say goodbye
    Till the day I die
    I will love you
    Maybe it would be worthwhile
    If I could make you change your style
    Darling you would never have that notion
    You would have to rearrange
    The things that you would never change
    Tell me why you play with my emotions
    If you see confusionon my face
    Well, it's just my state of mind

    Fields Of People
    Composer(s): Wyatt Day; Jon Pierson
    Performer(s): The Move; Ars Nova



    Wildflowers grow everywhere
    Vibrations flow, things will have to change
    (Good evening, madam. It's a recording. Yes.)
    Strange new ideas fill the air
    Some people leave, others grieve
    Some were bare but things will change
    Old concepts go, new ones grow
    All at once the world begins to love again
    (..... Hello Uncle Bill)
    And the wildflowers grow out of fields
    Fields of people
    There's no such thing as a weed
    Seeds of hatred
    Plant them and soon they will breed
    (Going to the pub, are you? Evening madam.)
    Wildflowers grow everywhere
    Love of people
    There's no such thing as a weed
    Seeds of hatred
    Plant them and soon they will breed
    Fields of people
    There's no such thing as a weed
    Seeds of hatred
    Plant them and soon they will feed
    Wildflowers grow everywhere
    (There's a bloke out here looking for the band)
    Fields of people
    Fields of people
    Fields of people
    (Here we are now in Great Portland Street. Ah, good evening sir,
    I wonder would you like to come over here and say a few words in the microphone.
    Oh. It catches one a bit off balance suddenly to be interrupted in the street.
    I got one. Hello, I don't wanna taxi. What I want is this. You're a taxi driver,
    and we wanna taxi driver's opinion on pop music.
    I think it's very good mate. Just cause I gettin' a bit ancient
    don't mean to say I don't enjoy it.
    Good. Toot your organ and we'll be away.)
    (Hold it. One more time, it's a bit ragged. Try one more. Here we go.)

    The Boys Of Summer
    Composer(s): Mike Campbell - Don Henley
    First release by: Don Henley - 1984
    Covered by multiple other artists



    Nobody on the road
    Nobody on the beach
    I feel it in the air
    The summer's out of reach
    Empty lake, empty streets
    The sun goes down alone
    I'm drivin' by your house
    Though I know you're not at home

    But I can see you
    Your brown skin shinin' in the sun
    You got your hair combed back and your sunglasses on, baby
    And I can tell you my love for you will still be strong
    After the boys of summer have gone

    I never will forget those nights
    I wonder if it was a dream
    Remember how you made me crazy?
    Remember how I made you scream
    Now I don't understand what happened to our love
    But babe, I'm gonna get you back
    I'm gonna show you what I'm made of

    I can see you
    Your brown skin shinin' in the sun
    I see you walkin' real slow and you're smilin' at everyone
    I can tell you my love for you will still be strong
    After the boys of summer have gone

    Out on the road today, I saw a Deadhead sticker on a Cadillac
    A little voice inside my head said, "Don't look back
    You can never look back"
    I thought I knew what love was
    What did I know?
    Those days are gone forever
    I should just let them go but

    I can see you
    Your brown skin shinin' in the sun
    You got that top pulled down and that radio on, baby
    And I can tell you my love for you will still be strong
    After the boys of summer have gone

    I can see you
    Your brown skin shinin' in the sun
    You got that hair slicked back and those Wayfarers on, baby
    I can tell you my love for you will still be strong
    After the boys of summer have gone

    Can't Run But
    Composer(s): Paul Simon
    Performer(s): Paul Simon



    I can't run but
    I can walk much faster than this
    Can't run but
    I can't run but
    I can walk much faster than this
    Can't run but

    A cooling system
    Burns out in the Ukraine
    Trees and umbrellas
    Protect us from the new rain
    Armies of engineers
    To analyze the soil
    The food we contemplate
    The water that we boil

    I can't run but
    I can walk much faster than this
    Can't run but
    I can't run but
    I can walk much faster than this
    Can't run but
    Oo-we Oo-we

    I had a dream about us
    In the bottles and the bones of the night
    I felt a pain in my shoulder blade
    Like a pencil point? A love bite?
    A couple was rubbing against us
    Rubbing and doing that new dance
    The man was wearing a jacket and jeans
    The woman was laughing in advance

    I can't run but
    I can walk much faster than this
    Can't run but
    I can't run but
    I can walk much faster than this
    Can't run but

    A winding river
    Gets wound around a heart
    Pull it
    Tighter and tighter
    Until the muddy waters part
    Down by the river bank
    A blues band arrives
    The music suffers
    The music business thrives

    I can't run but
    I can walk much faster than this
    Can't run but
    I can't run but
    I can walk much faster than this
    Can't run but
    Oo-we Oo-we
