    The Carroll County Accident
    Composer(s): Bob Ferguson
    Performer(s): Porter Wagoner
    and multiple other artists



    Carroll County's pointed out as kind of square
    The biggest thing that happens is the county fair
    I guess that's why we thought it such a big event
    What we call the Carroll County accident

    The wreck was on the highway just outside the line
    Walter Browning lost his life and for a time
    It seemed that Mary Ellen Jones would surely die
    But she lived long enough for her to testify

    Walter Browning was a happy married man
    And he wore a golden wedding ring upon his hand
    But it was gone, nobody knew just where it went
    He lost it in the Carroll County Accident

    Mary Ellen testified that he flagged her down
    Said he was sick and could she drive him into town
    No one ever doubted what she said was true
    'Cause she was well respected in the county too

    I went down to see the wreck like all the rest
    The broken glass the bloody seats the tangled mess
    But I found something no one else had ever seen
    Behind the dash in Mary's crumpled up machine

    A little match box circled by a rubber band
    And inside the ring from Walter Browning's hand
    It took awhile to figure out just what it meant
    The truth about the Carroll County accident

    By dark of night I dropped the ring into a well
    And took a sacred oath that I would never tell
    The truth about the Carroll County accident
    For the County ordered dad a marble monument

    Yes, I lost him in the Carroll County accident

    Oh, can't you see that she's mine
    We've been together for a long long time
    And yet they try so very hard to pull us apart
    But we don't care what they say
    We're gonna keep on lovin' this way
    'Cause if they break us up
    You know it'll only break my heart

    And don't you know I love her so
    And I'll never, never, never let her go
    No matter what the people may say or try to do
    'Cause can't you see that she's mine
    We've been together for a long long time
    And it'll stay that way
    Because I know she loves me too

    People talk and try to break us up
    When they know they don't understand
    But I don't care what the people may say
    I'm gonna keep on holdin' her hand

    Can't you see that she's mine
    We've been together for a long long time
    And yet they try so very hard to pull us apart
    But we don't care what they say
    We're gonna keep on lovin' this way
    'Cause if they break us up
    You know it'll only break my heart

    Don't you know I love her so

    Because I know she'll love me too

    The Carnival Is Over
    Composer(s): Tom Springfield
    First release by: The Seekers - 1965



    Say goodbye, my own true lover
    As we sing a lover's song
    How it breaks my heart to leave you
    Now the carnival is gone
    High above, the dawn is waking
    And my tears are falling rain
    For the carnival is over
    We may never meet again

    Like a drum my heart was beating
    And your kiss was sweet as wine
    But the joys of love are fleeting
    For Pierrot and Columbine

    Now the harbour light is calling
    This will be our last goodbye
    Though the carnival is over
    I will love you till I die

    Like a drum my heart was beating
    And your kiss was sweet as wine
    But the joys of love are fleeting
    For Pierrot and Columbine

    Now the harbour light is calling
    This will be our last goodbye
    Though the carnival is over
    I will love you till I die

    Though the carnival is over
    I will love you till I die

    Find Your Way Back

    Performer(s): Jefferson Starship;
    and various other artists



    It's been a long, long road
    Since I packed up and left on my own
    And I carry a heavy load
    Just try 'n' get back to her heart

    I sure ain't got no home
    I seem to find love where I ramble
    And when it's time to go
    I hear that voice again... say'n'

    Chorus
    Find your way back...
    Find your way back to her heart
    Find your way back...
    Find your way back to her heart

    Leave a message with the rain
    You can find me where the wind blows
    The snow across the pain
    And the frost upon the heart

    (you got no place to be
    Still you wonder where you're goin')
    And why I had to leave
    I hear a voice... it says to me

    Repeat Chorus

    I know it's too late now
    But, I wish I could go back in time
    And start all over somehow
    And get it right from the start

    Repeat Chorus

    Carioca
    Composer(s): Gus Kahn - Vincent Youmans - Edward Eliscu
    First performance: Fred Astaire - 1933
    Covered by multiple other artists



    Say, have you seen a Carioca?
    It's not a foxtrot or a polka
    It has a little bit of new rhythm, a blue rhythm that sighs

    It has a meter that is tricky
    A bit of wicked wacky-wicky
    But when you dance it with a new love, there's a true love in her eye

    You dream of a new Carioca
    Its theme is a kiss and a sigh
    You dream of a new Carioca
    When music and lights are gone we say goodbye

    Two heads together, they say are better than one
    Two heads together, that's how the dance is begun
    Two arms around you and lips, that's why I'm yours and you are mine
    And you are mine

    Now that you've done the Carioca
    You'll never care to do the Polka
    And then you'll realize the blue hula and bamboola are through

    Tomorrow morning you'll discover
    You're just a Carioca lover
    And when you dance it with each new love, there'll be true love just for you

    Now you'll dream of a new Carioca
    Its theme is a kiss and a sigh
    You'll dream of a new Carioca
    When music and lights are gone and we're saying goodbye
    Goodbye

    Can't You Hear My Heartbeat Composer(s): John Carter - Kenneth Alan Hawker First release by: Goldie and The Gingerbreads - 1965 Covered by multiple other artists



    Every time I see you lookin' my way
    Baby, baby, can't you hear my heartbeat?
    In the car or walking down the highway
    Baby, baby, can't you hear my heartbeat?

    When you move up closer to me
    I get a feelin' that's ooo-wee
    Can't you hear the poundin' of my heartbeat
    'cause you're the one I love, you're the one I love

    When I feel you put your arms around me
    Baby, baby, can't you hear my heartbeat?
    Then I'm glad, I'm mighty glad I found you
    Baby, baby, can't you hear my heartbeat?

    When you asked me to meet your Ma
    I knew that baby, we'd be going far
    Can't you hear the poundin' of my heartbeat?
    'cause you're the one I love, you're the one I love

    All my friends are cryin' out to meet you
    Baby, baby, can't you hear my heartbeat?
    Now's the time to go and see the preacher
    Baby, baby, can't you hear my heartbeat?

    Wedding bells are gonna chime
    Baby, baby, you're gonna be mine
    Can't you hear the poundin' of my heartbeat
    'cause you're the one I love, you're the one I love

    Baby, baby, can't you hear my heartbeat?

    Find Me A Primitive Man
    Composer(s): Cole Porter
    Performer(s): Lee Wiley;
    and various other artists



    Now, before this modern idea had burst
    About the women and children first
    The men had much more charm than they have today
    And if only one of that type survived
    The very moment that he arrived
    I know I'd fall in love in a great big way
    I can't imagine being bad
    With any Arrow collar ad
    Nor could I take the slightest joy
    In waking up a college boy
    I've no desire to be alone
    With Rudy Vallee's megaphone
    So when I'm saying my prayers, I say

    Find me a primitive man
    Built on a primitive plan
    Someone with vigor and vim
    I don't mean a kind that belongs to a club
    But the kind that has a club that belongs to him
    I could be the personal slave
    Of someone just out of a cave
    The only man who'll ever win me
    Has gotta wake up the gypsy in me
    Find me a primitive man
    Find me a primitive man

    Trouve moi un homme primitif
    Trouve moi un garcon naif
    Quelqu'un tout plein de vigeur
    Ces p'tits maquereaux qu'on appelle gigolos ne
    Pourraient jamais donner le vrai bonheur
    J'ai besoin d'un bel animal
    Pour chauffeur mon chaffage centrale
    Et l'homme qui me veut pour capitane
    Devrait reveiler mon sang tzigane
    Trouve moi un homme primitif, vif
    Trouve moi un homme primitif

    (Find me a primitive man
    Find me a forthright young lad
    Someone with vigor to spare
    Those fatuous beaux they call gigolos could never give me happiness
    I must have a gorgeous beast
    To heat up my own central heat
    And he who aspires to be my stud
    Must reawake my gypsy blood
    Find me a primitive man)

    You hurt me when you told me you
    Will never be mine
    Soon the day will roll around when I'll see you my last time
    The one you really love will soon be comin' home
    And I'll be the one you left standin' all alone

    I'll do my very best to get over you
    But deep down in this heart of mine, I know it ain't no use
    It'll be like fightin' an army with my bare hands

    tu es quelque part à Paris
    ou chez toi
    tout seul ou avec des amis
    je n'sais pas
    moi je suis allongée sur mon lit
    dehors y a trop de gens, de voitures et de bruit
    j'ai posé un instant ce livre qui m'ennuie
    tout doucement descend la nuit
    et je vois
    par la fenêtre le voisin qui
    croise les bras
    moi, je suis allongée sur mon lit
    je me sens un peu faim
    il est six heures et demie
    je ne sais pas très bien
    de quoi j'aurais envie

    The Camel And The Butterfly
    Composer(s): Frederic Norton



    Once upon a time there lived a dromedary
    Oh, so full of woe was he
    The reason was, because he could not fly like a fairy
    Oh, so full of woe was he

    One day he chanced to spy
    A gorgeous butterfly
    Said he, "Oh! would you be so kind
    To teach me how to fly?"

    And the butterfly just cock'd his eye
    He saw a chance of fun
    Said he, aloud, "'Twill make me proud
    "To show you how it's done"

    Said the butterfly, "You must climb that mountain bare"
    (Oh! so weary was the dromedary)
    "And when you reach the top
    You must take a jump in the air
    You will fly like a fairy"

    The camel closed his eyes
    And took an awful jump
    The earth it shook for miles around
    He fell with such a bump!

    And I grieve to say, since that sad day
    All through that dreadful jump
    That camels all, both great and small
    Have always had the...
    Have always had the hump!

    I see your face cloud over like a little girls
    And your eyes have lost their shine
    You whisper something softly
    I'm not meant to hear
    Baby tell me what's on your mind
    I don't' care what people say
    About the two of us from different worlds
    I love you so much that it hurts inside
    Are you listening
    Please listen to me girl

    Can't we try just a little bit harder
    Can't we give just a little bit more
    Can't we try to understand
    That it's love we're fighting for
    Can't we try just a little more passion
    Can't we try just a little less pride
    I love you so much baby
    That it tears me up inside

    I hear you on the telephone
    With god knows who
    Spilling out your heart for free
    Everyone needs someone they can talk to
    Girls that someone should be me

    So many times I've tried to tell you
    You just turn away
    My life is changing so fast now
    Leaves me lonely and afraid

    Can't we try just a little bit harder
    Can't we give just a little bit more
    Can't we try to understand
    That it's love we're fighting for
    Can't we try just a little more passion
    Can't we try just a little less pride

    I love you so much baby
    That it tears me up inside
    Don't let our love fade away
    No matter what people say
    I need you more and more each day

    Can't we try just a little bit harder
    Can't we give just a little bit more
    Can't we try just a little bit harder
    Can't we give just a little bit more
    Can't we try just a little more passion
    Can't we try just a little less pride
    Love you so much baby
    Tears me up inside

    Fim Do Mundo
    Composer(s): Raimundo Fagner; Fausto Nilo
    Performer(s): Raimundo Fagner



    Faça comigo, cantoria de alegria
    Juro que sou assim
    Do fim do mundo, do fim
    Faça comigo, um embarque sem retorno
    Juro que sou assim
    Do fim do mundo, do fim
    Faça comigo um pouquinho de cuidado
    Juro que sou assim
    Do fim do mundo, do fim
    Se junto a mim
    O rio dos meus sonhos
    Hoje é todo paraíso
    E hoje se fez manhã

    Parece que chorando eu chego perto
    E nós nesse deserto
    Filhos nascidos do sol, da noite, da lua
    Parece o fim do mundo, o fim

    The Cajun Queen
    Composer(s): Wayne Walker
    Performer(s): Jimmy Dean; Jack Dean; Don Sebesky



    She kinda breezed into town from New Orleans
    And said, "Boys, I'm Big John's Cajun Queen
    Now I didn't come here to argue or waste anbody's time
    I just came to get my man from your dirty old mine
    'Cause he moves me!
    Now where you give up's where old Queenie's gonna start
    'Cause I got a powerful love in my heart
    So just show me the hole way down in the ground
    And tell the whole wide world Big John's been found
    And he's livin'!"

    So down in the mine without a sign of a light
    Old Queenie went a-lookin' for John that night
    She found him there at the bottom of the pit
    And placed a red hot kiss on those cold blue lips!
    He started breathin'!
    She waited a minute and then she kissed him again
    And old John got the power of a hundred men
    Up he come a-clawin' and a-diggin' like a mole
    And said, "Come on Queenie, we're gonna leave this hole!"
    They started walkin'!

    Now a roar from the crowd greeted this fine pair
    As they both walked out in that cool night air
    And up for silence went Big John's hand
    And the Queen said, "I told you I'd get my man
    'Cause he moves me!"
    You can find them today, they're down in New Orleans
    Big Bad John and his Cajun Queen
    They're a little bit wrinkled from the strain of time
    But their love's just as strong as that night in the mine
    A hundred and ten grandchildren!

    Now the moral of this story has a real clear omen
    Don't you ever underestimate the power of a woman!

    Can't We Just Sit Down (And Talk It Over)
    Composer(s): Tony McAulay
    Performer(s): Donna Summer



    Cold and lonely night, you don’t have to leave at all
    A car rolls up outside on time, a moment from your call
    And handshake seems more fitting than a kiss
    Such a shame that you and I should have to end like this

    Can’t we just sit down and talk it over
    Surely you can ask the better way
    Strange that you’re the one so set on leaving
    And I’m the one who said last night that it was all too late

    Can’t we just sit down and talk it over
    Who knows, maybe in a little while
    We’ll forget our pride, and the things we said last night
    And maybe you and I can talk it out

    Tonight stay somewhere warm, they say it’s gonna freeze
    You may not find a place at all, so be sure and take your keys
    I can almost taste the silence now
    Does it really matter still,
    Who was wrong, who let who down

    Can’t we just sit down and talk it over
    Who knows, maybe in a little while
    We’ll forget our pride, and the things we said last night
    And maybe you and I can talk it out

    Hold on, hold on
    Surely you and I can talk it out
    Hold on, hold on
    Surely you and I can make it right
    Hold on, hold on, yeah
    Can’t we just sit down and talk it over
    Hold on, hold on
    Hold on, hold on

    Fils De Personne
    English Title: Fortunate Son
    Composer(s): John Fogerty
    Performer(s): Johnny Hallyday



    Y en a qui naissent
    Dans les plis du drapeau
    Au son des hymnes militaires
    Et quand la troupe défile sous leurs carreaux
    Ils ont l'âme guerrière

    Mais pas moi
    Mais pas moi
    Je ne suis pas né militaire
    Mais pas moi
    Mais pas moi
    Je suis le fils de personne

    Y en a qui naissent avec dans leur berceau
    Les milliards de leur père
    On leur apprend que tout peux s'acheter
    Les affaires, oui, sont les affaires

    Mais pas moi
    Non, pas moi
    Je ne suis pas né milliardaire
    Mais pas moi
    Non, pas moi
    Je suis le fils de personne

    Y en a qui naissent
    Dans le respect des lois
    Ils peuvent faire une belle carrière
    Leurs paradis, c'est un bureau étroit
    Dans un immense ministère

    Mais pas moi
    Non, pas moi
    Je ne suis pas né fonctionnaire
    Non, pas moi
    Non, pas moi
    Je suis le fils de personne

    Non, pas moi
    Non, pas moi
    Je suis le fils de personne
    Non, pas moi
    Non, pas moi
    Je suis le fils de personne...

    The Caissons Go Rolling Along
    Composer(s): Major Edmund L. Gruber
    Performer(s): Bob Crosby & His Orch.
    and multiple other artists



    Over hill, over dale
    As we hit the dusty trail
    And the Caissons go rolling along
    In and out, hear them shout
    Counter march and right about
    And the Caissons go rolling along

    Then it's hi! hi! hee!
    In the field artillery
    Shout out your numbers loud and strong
    For where e'er you go
    You will always know
    That the Caissons go rolling along

    In the storm, in the night
    Action left or action right
    See those Caissons go rolling along

    Limber front, limber rear
    Prepare to mount your cannoneer
    And those Caissons go rolling along

    Then it's hi! hi! hee!
    In the field artillery
    Shout out your numbers loud and strong
    For where e'er you go
    You will always know
    That the Caissons go rolling along

    Was it high, was it low
    Where the hell did that one go?
    As those Caissons go rolling along
    Was it left, was it right
    Now we won't get home tonight
    And those Caissons go rolling along

    Then it's hi! hi! hee!
    In the field artillery
    Shout out your numbers loud and strong
    For where e'er you go
    You will always know
    That the Caissons go rolling along
    That the Caissons go rolling along
    That the Caissons go rolling along

    Can’t We Be Friends? Composer(s): Paul James - Kay Swift Performer(s): Mildred Bailey & Ellis Larkin Trio and multiple other artists



    I thought I’d found the man of my dreams
    Now it seems this is how the story ends
    He’s gonna turn me down and say
    Can’t we be friends?

    I thought for once it couldn’t go wrong
    Not for long, I can see the way this ends
    He’s gonna turn me down and say
    Can’t we be friends?

    Never again, through with love, through with men
    They play the game without shame, and who’s to blame?

    I thought I’d found a man I could trust
    What a bust, this is how the story ends
    He’s gonna turn me down and say
    Can’t we be friends?

    Why should I care?
    Though he gave me the air
    Why should I cry, heave a sigh and wonder why?

    I should have seen the signal to stop
    What a flop, this is how the story ends
    I’ll let him turn me down and say
    Can’t we be friends?
