    Then I'll live 'til I die

    Well for workin' I'm too lazy
    And beggin' that's too low
    Well train robbin' that's to dangerous

    And she warbles when she flies
    Well she brings us glad tidings

    I don't gamble, I don't fight
    I don't be hangin' in the bars at night
    Yeah I used to be a fighter
    But now I am a wiser man
    I don't drink much, I don't smoke
    I don't be hardly mess around with no dope
    Yeah I used to be a problem
    But now I am a careful man

    But if you used to want to see a commotion
    You should have seen the man that I used to be
    I was trouble in perpetual motion
    Trouble with a capital "T"

    Stayin' out late, havin' fun
    And shot off every single shot in my gun
    Yeah I used to be a lover
    But now I am an older man

    Yeah I used to be a terror but now I am a tired man

    First We Take Manhattan
    Composer(s): Leonard Cohen
    Performer(s): Joe Cocker;
    and various other artists



    (Radio announcer's voice)
    Was die Attentäter betrifft
    die in Berlin den Anschlag auf die Deutsch-Arabische Gesellschaft verübt haben
    ist die Polizei einen Schritt weiter gekommen
    Die jetzt nach dem Anschlag...

    They sentenced me to twenty years of boredom
    For trying to change the system from within
    I'm coming now, I'm coming to reward them
    First we take Manhattan, then we take Berlin

    I'm guided by a signal in the heavens
    I'm guided by this birthmark on my skin
    I'm guided by the beauty of our weapons
    First we take Manhattan, then we take Berlin

    I'd really like to live beside you, baby
    I love your body and your spirit and your clothes
    But you see that line there moving through the station?
    I told you, I told you, told you, I was one of those

    Ah you loved me as a loser, but now you're worried that I just might win
    You know the way to stop me, but you don't have the discipline
    How many nights I prayed for this, to let my work begin
    First we take Manhattan, then we take Berlin

    I don't like your fashion business mister
    And I don't like these drugs that keep you thin
    I don't like what happened to my sister
    First we take Manhattan, then we take Berlin

    I'd really like to live beside you, baby ...

    And I thank you for those items that you sent me
    The monkey and the plywood violin
    I practiced every night, now I'm ready
    First we take Manhattan, then we take Berlin

    I am guided

    Ah remember me, I used to live for music
    Remember me, I brought your groceries in
    Well it's Father's Day and everybody's wounded
    First we take Manhattan, then we take Berlin

    First release by: The Doors - 1967
    Covered by multiple other artists



    Before you slip into unconsciousness
    I'd like to have another kiss
    Another flashing chance at bliss
    Another kiss, another kiss

    The days are bright and filled with pain
    Enclose me in your gentle rain
    The time you ran was too insane
    We'll meet again, we'll meet again

    Oh tell me where your freedom lies
    The streets are fields that never die
    Deliver me from reasons why
    You'd rather cry, I'd rather fly

    The crystal ship is being filled
    A thousand girls, a thousand thrills
    A million ways to spend your time
    When we get back, I'll drop a line

    Carefree Highway
    Composer(s): Gordon Lightfoot
    Performer(s): Gordon Lightfoot; John Carrington



    Pickin' up the pieces of my sweet shattered dream
    I wonder how the old folks are tonight
    Her name was Ann and I'll be damned if I recall her face
    She left me not knowin' what to do
    Carefree highway, let me slip away on you
    Carefree highway, you seen better days
    The mornin' after blues from my head down to my shoes
    Carefree highway, let me slip away
    Slip away on you
    Turnin' back the pages to the times I love best
    I wonder if she'll ever do the same
    Now the thing that I call livin' is just bein' satisfied
    With knowin' I got no one left to blame
    Carefree highway, got ta see you my old flame
    Carefree highway, you seen better days
    The mornin' after blues from my head down to my shoes
    Carefree highway, let me slip away
    Slip away on you
    Searchin' through the fragments of my dream-shattered sleep
    I wonder if the years have closed her mind
    I guess it must be wanderlust or tryin' to get free
    From the good old faithful feelin' we once knew
    Carefree highway, let me slip away on you
    Carefree highway, you seen better days
    The mornin' after blues from my head down to my shoes
    Carefree highway, let me slip away
    Slip away on you
    Let me slip away on you
    Carefree highway, got ta see you my old flame
    Carefree highway, you seen better days
    The mornin' after blues from my head down to my shoes
    Carefree highway, let me slip away
    Slip away on you

    The Crystal Gazer
    Composer(s): Frank Petch
    Performer(s): Reggie Goff



    There's a crystal gazer down at the fair
    She's a lady with a rose in her hair
    If you're feeling romantic
    She'll be your guide

    She can look into the crystal and see
    What your fortune and your future will be
    And they tell me the crystal
    Has never lied

    It seems that this weaver of dreams
    Deals in romance all the day through
    But her life's not the romance it seems
    (Her own dreams never come true)

    She can soon arrange a stranger's affairs
    But she tries to hide the worries and cares
    Of the one broken romance
    She'll never mend
    (She'll never mend)

    (It seems that this weaver of dreams
    Deals in romance all the day through)
    But her life's not the romance it seems
    (Her own dreams never come true)

    She can soon arrange a stranger's affairs
    But she tries to hide the worries and cares
    Of the one broken romance
    She'll never mend
    (Of the broken romance)
    (All)
    She'll never mend

    They offered me the office, offered me the shop
    They said I'd better take anything they'd got
    Do you wanna make tea at the BBC?
    Do you wanna be, do you really wanna be a cop?

    Career opportunities are the ones that never knock
    Every job they offer you is to keep you out the dock
    Career opportunity, the ones that never knock

    I hate the army an' I hate the R.A.F.
    I don't wanna go fighting in the tropical heat
    I hate the civil service rules
    And I won't open letter bombs for you

    Bus driver....ambulance man....ticket inspector
    They're gonna have to introduce conscription
    They're gonna have to take away my prescription
    If they wanna get me making toys
    If they wanna get me, well, I got no choice

    When I was small, and Christmas trees were tall
    we used to love while others used to play
    Don't ask me why, but time has passed us by
    someone else moved in from far away

    Now we are tall, and Christmas trees are small
    and you don't ask the time of day
    But you and I, our love will never die
    but guess we'll cry come first of May

    The apple tree that grew for you and me
    I watched the apples falling one by one
    And I recall the moment of them all
    the day I kissed your cheek and you were gone

    Now we are tall, and Christmas trees are small
    and you don't ask the time of day
    But you and I, our love will never die
    but guess we'll cry come first of May

    When I was small, and Christmas trees were tall
    do do do do do do do do do...
    Don't ask me why, but time has passed us by

    I know all there is to know about the crying game
    I've had my share of the crying game

    First there are kisses, then there are sighs
    And then before you know where you are
    You're sayin' goodbye

    One day soon I'm gonna tell the moon about the crying game
    And if he knows maybe he'll explain

    Why there are heartaches, why there are tears
    And what to do to stop feeling blue
    When love disappears

    I know all there is to know about the crying game
    I've had my share of the crying game

    First there are kisses, then there are sighs
    And then before you know where you are
    You're sayin' goodbye

    Don't want no more of the crying game
    Don't want no more of the crying game
    Don't want no more of the crying game
    Don't want no more of the crying game

    Good morning to you I hope you're feeling better baby
    Thinking of me while you are far away
    Counting the days until they set you free again
    Writing this letter hoping you're okay

    Saved you the room you used to stay in every Sunday
    The one that is warmed by sunshine every day
    And we'll get to know each other for a second time
    And then you can tell me 'bout your prison stay...

    Feels so good...
    You're coming home soon!

    It's gonna to be good to have you back again with me
    Watching the laughter play around your eyes
    Come up and fetch you, saved up for the train fare money
    Kiss and make up and it will be so nice...

    Feels so good...
    You're coming home soon!

    Walking the way we used to walk
    And it could be so nice...
    We're talking the way we used to talk
    And it could be so nice...

    It's gonna be good to have you back again with me
    Watching the laughter play around your eyes
    Come up and fetch you, saved up for the train fare money
    Kiss and make up and it will be so nice...

    Composer(s): Terry Gilkyson

    and multiple other artists



    My heart knows what the wild goose knows
    And I must go where the wild goose goes
    Wild goose, brother goose, which is best
    A wanderin' foot or a heart at rest

    Tonight I heard the wild goose cry
    Wingin' north in the lonely sky
    I tried to sleep, it wern't no use
    'Cause I am a brother to the old wild goose

    (My heart knows what the wild goose knows)
    (And I must go where the wild goose goes)
    (Wild goose, brother goose, which is best)
    (A wanderin' foot or a heart at rest)

    My woman was kind and true to me
    She thinks she loves me, the more fool she
    She's gotta learn that ain't no use
    To love the brother of the old wild goose

    (My heart knows what the wild goose knows)
    (And I must go where the wild goose goes)
    (Wild goose, brother goose, which is best)
    (A wanderin' foot or a heart at rest)

    (Oh, you wild goose)

    The cabin is warm and the snow is deep
    And I've got a woman who lies asleep
    When she wakes up tomorrow's dawn
    She'll find, poor critter, that her man is gone

    My heart knows what the wild goose knows
    And I must go where the wild goose goes
    Wild goose, brother goose, which is best
    A wanderin' foot or a heart at rest

    Let me fly, let me fly, let me fly away

    Spring is comin' and the ice will break
    And I can't linger for a woman's sake
    She'll see a shadow pass overhead
    She'll find a feather beside my bed

    (My heart knows what the wild goose knows)
    (And I must go where the wild goose goes)
    Wild goose, brother goose, which is best
    A wanderin' foot or a heart at rest

    (Wild goose, wild goose, wild goose, wild goose)
    (Wild goose, wild goose...)

    Cardboard Cutout Sundown
    Composer(s): Don Van Vliet
    Performer(s): Captain Beefheart & the Magic Band



    You hardly know a day goes by
    In the cardboard cutout sundown
    The moon popped up like a gallery duck
    Sipped up gold from the sunny cup
    And longhorns sawed the buggy grass
    And a cowboy blew a harp sitting on his chapped ass
    And the prairie flowers didn't look a bit queer
    And the stars struck the sand cartwheeled
    And poked in the prairie
    A cactus juice stand the only place the crows couldn't land
    The bluebottle flies were as big as a cowboy's eyes
    And their buzz was as loud as rattlers
    A fire engine red whistle blows raspberries
    In a cloud of whipped steam
    A tungle weed ran out black patent yarn stinkbug hoops
    From above a living mail thriving dot
    In perfect sympathy with the cardboard cutout sundown

    You hardly know a day goes by
    In the cardboard cutout sundown

    All at once I miss you
    So long since I've kissed you
    How I love to look into your eyes

    Yes I still dream about you
    My world is lost without you
    For you are my first love, and
    First love never ever dies

    Whenever I feel lonely
    I'm thinking of you only
    One last kiss and then we said goodbye

    The love I left behind me
    Comes back to remind me
    That you were my first love, and
    First love never ever dies

    The love I left behind me
    Comes back to remind me
    That you were my first love, and
    First love never ever dies

    And if you're thinking of me
    And you find that you still love me
    There's no use to go on living lies

    Let's hurry to each other
    For there could be no other
    Yes, you were my first love, and
    First love never ever dies

    First love never ever dies

    The cruel war is raging; Johnny has to fight
    I want to be with him from morning till night
    I want to be with him, it grieves my heart so
    "Won't you let me go with you?" "No, my love no"

    Tomorrow is Sunday, Monday is the day
    That your captain will call you and you must obey
    Your captain will call you, it grieves my heart so
    "Won't you let me go with you?" "No, my love no"

    I'll tie back my hair; men's clothing I'll put on
    I'll pass as your comrade as we march along
    I'll pass as your comrade, no one will ever know
    "Won't you let me go with you?" "No, my love no"

    Oh Johnny, oh Johnny, I fear you are unkind
    I love you far better than all of mankind
    I love you far better than words can e'er express
    "Won't you let me go with you?" "Yes, my love yes"

    Cardboard California Composer(s): Howard Greenfield - Neil Sedaka Performer(s): Neil Sedaka



    Nothing is real in cardboard California
    Just waking up brings you down
    One lousy deal is cardboard California
    You just can't survive in a make believe town

    Lost in a city of little tin gods
    Cold plastic people with phoney facades
    How can you win when you look at the odds

    You're running down a one way street
    Nobody cares if you survive
    Sometimes you beg or you don't eat
    You gotta fight to stay alive
    Hey, you're never gonna get away

    Where 's the world you used to know
    Where did all the good times go
    Look around your hopes and dreams are gone
    But like a fool you still keep hanging on

    Come and be a movie star
    Come and drive a fancy car
    Come and see, what you really are

    Look in the mirror, mirrors don't lie
    You're getting older, your time's past you by
    You lost your shot to some younger guy

    You're running down a one way street
    Nobody cares if you survive
    Sometimes you beg or you don't eat
    You gotta fight to stay alive
    Hey, you're never gonna get away

    Nothing is real in cardboard California
    Just waking up brings you down
    One lousy deal is cardboard California
    You just can't survive in a make believe town

    First In Line
    Composer(s): Aaron Schroeder; Ben Weisman
    Performer(s): Elvis Presley



    When they gave out eyes like diamonds
    That would shame the stars that shine
    My darlin' my darlin'
    You were the first in line
    When they gave out lips like honey
    That hold a new thrill every time
    My darlin' my darlin'
    You were the first in line

    There may be others
    That know you longer
    Who pledge their hearts to you
    But there's no other
    Could love you stronger
    Any stronger than I do
    Don't refuse me, say you'll choose me
    I'm yours, oh please be mine
    My darlin' say I’m your darlin'
    The first, and the last in line

    The Crowd
    Composer(s): Roy Orbison - Joe Melson
    Performer(s): Roy Orbison



    I go out with the crowd, I play the game
    Pretending out loud but it don't seem the same
    For the heart of the crowd is gone from sight
    My part of the crowd is not with me tonight

    I remember the prom, every dance with you
    All the crazy things that we used to do
    Sometimes we'd wait for a chance
    And then we'd steal away
    From the crowd and the dance to our hideaway

    Aww, but you're gone and it's not the same old game
    I fall apart each time I hear your name
    Guess I'll go along with the crowd,
    I'll make believe
    That you'll come back to me, run back to me
    Hurry back to the crowd a-and me-e-e-e-e

    Carco
    Composer(s): Jean Ferrat
    Performer(s): Jean Ferrat



    Dis qu'as-tu fait des jours enfuis
    De ta jeunesse et de toi-méme
    De tes mains pleines de poèmes
    Qui tremblaient au bout de ta nuit

    Il avait toujours dans la tête
    Le manège d'anciens tourments
    De la fenêtre par moment
    Parvenaient des bouffées de fête

    Où sont les lumières lointaines
    Voici fermés les yeux éteints
    Ce chant des lilas au matin
    De Montmartre à Mortefontaine

    Dis qu'as-tu fait des jours enfuis
    De ta jeunesse et de toi-même
    De tes mains pleines de poèmes
    Qui tremblaient au bout de ta nuit

    Tu meurs sans avoir vu le drame
    Carco qui ne sus que chanter
    Te souviens-tu de cet été
    De Nice où nous nous rencontrâmes

    On faisait semblant d'être heureux
    Le ciel ressemblait à la mer
    Même l'aurore était amère
    C'était en l'an quarante-deux

    Dis qu'as-tu fait des jours enfuis
    De ta jeunesse et de toi-même
    De tes mains pleines de poèmes
    Qui tremblaient au bout de ta nuit

    Excuse-moi que je le dise
    Dans ce Paris où tu n'es plus
    Comme Guillaume l'a voulu
    Qu'un nom qui se mélancolise

    Que l'avenir du moins n'oublie
    Ce qui fut le charme de l'air
    Le bonheur d'être et le vin clair
    La Seine douce dans son lit

    Dis qu'as-tu fait des jours enfuis
    De ta jeunesse et de toi-même
    De tes mains pleines de poèmes
    Qui tremblaient au bout de ta nuit

    Ce coeur que l'homme avec lui porte
    Ne change pas avec le vent
    Nous mettrons demain comme avant
    Des coquelicots à nos portes

    Les mots que nous avons cueillis
    Les voici pour celui qui meurt
    Passent les gens et tu demeures
    O poète de mon pays

    Dis qu'as-tu fait des jours enfuis
    De ta jeunesse et de toi-même
    De tes mains pleines de poèmes
    Qui tremblaient au bout de ta nuit
