The Lass Of Swansea Town
(Traditional)



It was down by Swansea barracks
one May morning I strayed
A-viewing of the soldier lads
I spied a comely maid
It was o'er her red and rosy cheeks
the tears did dingle down
I thought she was some goddess fair
the lass of Swansea town

I said, "Fair maid, what brought you here
what brought you here to mourn?"
"Oh I'm in search of Willie dear
my bonny young sailor boy
Eight years ago he left me here
for Bermuda he was bound
He said he would prove faithful to
the lass of Swansea town"

"If eight years ago he left you
it is useless for to mourn
For perhaps he is in some battle slain
or in the ocean drowned"
"Oh God forbid, young man," she said
"By what token will he be known
if he ever do return to the
lass of Swansea Town"

"On his left breast he wears a scar
where he received a wound"
"If by that token your Willie is known
it's him I know right well
The cannon-ball which made him fall
gave him his deathly wound
He told me to take care of you
the lass of Swansea town"

Soon as she heard him say these words
she fell in deep despair
Wringing of her lily-white hands
and tearing of her hair
Saying, "Take me to my Willie
else give me my death wound
For no other man will ever enjoy
the lass of Swansea town"

On coming to herself once more up
from the ground she rose
His waistcoat it blew open and
the scar it did expose
They walked till they reached his cottage
and there they settled down
Young Willie of the royal blue and
the lass of Swansea town

Changing All The Time
Composer(s): Peter Frampton - Kevin Savigar
Performer(s): Peter Frampton



You're doing what you think is right
Yeah, like it's black and white
Then you're not so sure
'Cause everything's changing all the time

You're digging deep inside
In me you can always confide
You have to trust in yourself
'Cause everything's changing all the time
When in your darkest days
You are the light that shines the way
....Gotta leave it all behind
'Cause everything's changing all the time

When you're put to the test
And you need some tenderness
Don't let yesterday haunt you
'Cause everything's changing all the time
'Cause everything's changing all the time

When things don't seem to go as planned
And your hopes seem out of reach
Don't let your fears surround you
You can't give up now
And loose what's inside you

If there's anything I can do
Just call on me and I'll send it along

I've got everything that you want
Like a heart that is oh, so true

I got lips that long to kiss you
And keep you satisfied, oooh

If there's anything I can do
Just call on me and I'll send it along
With love from me to you
To you, to you, to you

The Language Of Love
Composer(s): Dan Fogelberg
Performer(s): Dan Fogelberg; R.J. Wagsmith



She says no 
When she means yes 
And what she wants, you know that I can't guess 
When we want more, you know we ask for less 
Such is the language of love... 

I say leave 
When I mean stay 
But she don't see and so she moves away 
What we really want, you know we rarely say 
Such is the language of love 

It's tooth for tooth & eye for eye 
We hide our hearts & then we won't say why 
It's truth for truth & lie for lie 
Such is the language of love 

One cries foul 
And will not speak 
The other claims a little victory 
And all the time 
You know we fail to see 
This is the language of love 

When a love begins to wander 
No one ever knows 
But we feel it deep inside us 
Long before it shows 
Long before it shows 

We hem & haw 
We balk & bluff 
Our words don't ever seem to say enough 
But a simple smile 
A tender touch 
Speaks the true language of love 

She says no 
When she means yes 
And what she wants, you know that I can't guess 
When we want more, you know we ask for less 
Such is the language of love... 
Such is the language of love... 

Changes In Latitudes, Changes In Attitudes
Composer(s): Jimmy Buffett
Performer(s): Jimmy Buffett
and multiple other artists



I took off for a weekend last month   
Just to try and recall the whole year
All of the faces and all of the places   
Wonderin' where they all disappeared
I didn't ponder the question too long 
I was hungry and went out for a bite
Ran into a chum with a bottle of rum and we wound up drinkin' all night

It's these changes in latitudes, changes in attitudes
Nothing remains quite the same
With all of our running and all of our cunning 
If we couldn't laugh we would all go insane

Reading departure signs in some big airport reminds me of the places I've been
Visions of good times that brought so much pleasure makes me want to go back again
If it suddenly ended tomorrow I could somehow adjust to the fall
Good times and riches and son of a bitches I've seen more than I can recall

These changes in latitudes, changes in attitudes
Nothing remains quite the same
Through all of the islands and all of the highlands 
If we couldn't laugh we would all go insane

I think about Paris when I'm high on red wine I wish I could jump on a plane
So many nights I just dream of the ocean God I wish I was sailin' again
Oh, yesterday's over my shoulder so I can't look back for too long
There's just too much to see waiting in front of me and I know that I just can't go wrong

With these changes in latitudes, changes in attitudes
Nothing remains quite the same
With all of my running and all of my cunning 
If I couldn't laugh I just would go insane
If we couldn't laugh we just would go insane
If we weren't all crazy we would go insane

From Levi's To Calvin Klein Jeans
Composer(s): R.D. Runyeon; R. Lathrop
Performer(s): Brenda Lee



From a cowboy to a playboy, what a change
From a horse, to a Porsche, when your riding the range
From the trees and the stars, to the discos and bars
Tell me is it as far as it seems
From Levi's to Calvin Klein jeans

The life that your living don't fit cowboy boots
But you fit fight in with your new Gucci shoes
Your wearing gold plated glasses and solid gold chains
I doubt if the country will see you again

From a cowboy to a playboy, what a change
From a horse, to a Porsche, when your riding the range
From the trees and the stars, to the discos and bars
Tell me is it as far as it seems
From Levi's to Calvin Klein jeans

The tan on your face has turned cally white
Riding those bar stools don't let in sun light
I can tell by the look that I see in your eyes
You yearn for the country and wide open skies

From a cowboy to a playboy, what a change
From a horse, to a Porsche, when your riding the range
From the trees and the stars, to the discos and bars
Tell me is it as far as it seems
From Levi's to Calvin Klein jeans
From Levi's to Calvin Klein jeans

Land Of Milk And Honey
Composer(s): John Hurley - Ronnie Wilkins
Performer(s): The Vogues



Yes it's true for most of my life I spoke devil 
And I did my best to dodge anything that looked at all like work
I was prone to standing on corners smokin' cigarettes
and talkin' about anything I didn't know
Oh, how I needed to go

Please take me to the land of milk and honey
To the land of love and sunshine
To the land of milk and honey, Please take me

Time passed and I got a little older
Takin' on trouble just a little bit harder and a little bit bolder
I was thinkin' colder, fightin', lyin', cheatin' & cryin', I gave up
Givin'-up the voices of evil that were pullin' me down
You know, I was givin' up ground

Please take me to the land of milk and honey
To the land of love and sunshine
To the land of milk and honey, Please take me

Then it came and it sounded like thunder
Shot of light in the dark of the night and you were really there
Tellin' me that you care, your warm love took away the cold
And were you walked the cobblestones turned to gold
And when you touch my hair you know take me there

Please take me to the land of milk and honey
To the land of love and sunshine
To the land of milk and honey 
Please take me

I still don't know what I was waiting for
And my time was running wild
A million dead-end streets
Every time I thought I'd got it made
It seemed the taste was not so sweet
So I turned myself to face me
But I've never caught a glimpse
Of how the others must see the faker
I'm much too fast to take that test

Ch-ch-ch-ch-Changes
(Turn and face the stranger)
Ch-ch-Changes
Don't want to be a richer man
Ch-ch-ch-ch-Changes
(Turn and face the stranger)
Ch-ch-Changes
Just gonna have to be a different man
Time may change me
But I can't trace time

I watch the ripples change their size
But never leave the stream
Of warm impermanence and
So the days float through my eyes
But still the days seem the same
And these children that you spit on
As they try to change their worlds
Are immune to your consultations
They're quite aware of what they're going through

Ch-ch-ch-ch-Changes
(Turn and face the stranger)
Ch-ch-Changes
Don't tell them to grow up and out of it
Ch-ch-ch-ch-Changes
(Turn and face the stranger)
Ch-ch-Changes
Where's your shame
You've left us up to our necks in it
Time may change me
But you can't trace time

Strange fascination, fascinating me
Changes are taking the pace I'm going through

Ch-ch-ch-ch-Changes
(Turn and face the stranger)
Ch-ch-Changes
Oh, look out you rock 'n rollers
Ch-ch-ch-ch-Changes
(Turn and face the stranger)
Ch-ch-Changes
Pretty soon you're gonna get a little older
Time may change me
But I can't trace time
I said that time may change me
But I can't trace time

From Home

I need your loving I can't wait long
I get this feeling it comes on strong
I try to see you youre always gone
from home girl
from home girl

you're always out in fancy clothes
down in clubs and late night shows
where you get your money no one knows
from home girl
from home girl

you run a big expensive car
you come and go like a movie star
and with your money you could stray far
from home girl
from home girl

I need your loving I cant wait long
I get this feeling it comes on strong
I try to see you youre always gone
from home girl
from home girl

The Lamp On The Corner
Composer(s): Ned Washington - Agustín Lara



Ask the lamp on the corner how lonely my life is without you
Ask the lamp on the corner how often I've spoken about you
With what's left of my heart in my hand
Like a troubadour lonely I stand 
And the light in your window keeps calling me in
Though I dare not obey its command
Ask the lamp on the corner if I haven't told (him/her) I love you
Just a miserable mourner who knows that he's not worthy of you
I forgot how we parted or why
Just a word or some little white lie
But life won't be worth livin' 'till we've been forgiven
The lamp on the corner and I

Changes

Performer(s): Alan Price



Everyone is going through changes

No one knows what's going on
And everybody changes places

But the world still carries on

Love must always change to sorrow

And everyone must play the game
It's here today and gone tomorrow

But the world goes on the same

Everyone is going through changes

Now love must always change to sorrow

Everyone is going through changes

Now love must always change to sorrow

Everyone is going through changes

But the world still carries on

From His Woman To You
Composer(s): Bettye Crutcher; Larry "Ace" Snell
Performer(s): Barbara Mason



"Hello Barbara, this is Shirley
I would like you to know that the man ...
Now wait a minute Shirley
I'm a young woman
And can't aford to all the things you do for this man
I don't even have a job
And I can't buy his clothes, pay his car notes
And I surely can't keep money in his pocket
But I can give him what he needs, when he needs it
And that's all he expects from me"

I can give him love
From his woman to you
There is a thing or two I'd like to say
I don't care who claims this man
I'm gonna love him in a way ...
Woman to woman
He spent last night with me
Stayed here cause this is where he wanted to be
From his woman to you
I've got to make it
Just play as I can

Seems to me you're doing too much for the man
From his woman to you
That you begging loving
It's giving up yourself
And I feel sorry for you, I feel sorry for you
I don't mind sharing
If you don't bother me
I won't bother you
From his woman to you
I don't know what you're gonna, gonna do
But he is giving to me
What he is getting from you
Woman to woman
That's the truth
From his woman to you
Seems like you're the fool
I'm his only woman

And I love him
And I ain't about to give him up
I'm his only woman, woman to woman
I just wanna let you know
That I ain't gonna never, never let him go
Woman to woman, I'm his only woman

The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway
Composer(s): Mike Rutherford - Peter Gabriel - Phil Collins - Steve Hackett - Tony Banks
Performer(s): Genesis
and multiple other artists



And the lamb lies down on Broadway

Early morning Manhattan
Ocean winds blow on the land
The Movie-Palace is now undone
The all-night watchmen have had their fun
Sleeping cheaply on the midnight show
It's the same old ending-time to go
Get out!
It seems they cannot leave their dream
There's something moving in the sidewalk steam
And the lamb lies down on Broadway

Nightime's flyers feel their pains
Drugstore takes down the chains
Metal motion comes in bursts
But the gas station can quench that thirst
Suspension cracked on unmade road
The trucker's eyes read 'Overload'
And out on the subway
Rael Imperial Aerosol Kid
Exits into daylight, spraygun hid
And the lamb lies down on Broadway

The lamb seems right out of place
Yet the Broadway street sceng finds a focus in its face
Somehow it's lying there
Brings a stillness to the air
Though man-made light, at night is very bright
There's no whitewash victim
As the neons dim, to the coat of white
Rael Imperial Aerosol Kid
Wipes his gun-he's forgotten what he did
And the lamb lies down on Broadway

Suzanne tired her work all done
Thinks money-honey-be on-neon
Cabman's velvet glove sounds the horn
And the sawdust king spits out his scorn
Wonder women draw your blind!
Don't look at me! I'm not your kind
I'm Rael!
Something inside me has just begun
Lord knows what I have done
And the lamb lies down on Broadway
On Broadway
They say the lights are always bright on Broadway
They say there's always magic in the air

Changement De Main, Changement De Vilain
Composer(s): J.P. "Hector" Drand
Performer(s): Bernard Lavilliers



J'peux pas supporter le jour
J'aime la nuit qui tache
Au rouge sang et contours
Des ombres des Apaches
Quand l'état d'urgence
Me pousse de ma tanière
Ceux de la finance
Peuvent avoir quelques misères
J'peux pas dormir
J'peux pas dormir
Quand j'ferme les yeux
C'est encore pire

Déjà
L'ombre glisse sur l'acier
De mon automatique
Déjà
Je descends les escaliers
Vers le marché du vice

J'ai braqué au carrefour
Une limousine de rêve
Surchargée comme un poids lourd
En direction Genève
Kilos d'or en barres
Planqués dans les portières
Dix millions de dollars
Sous le siège arrière
Valeurs volées
Livreurs envolés
Valises enlevées
Où est le voleur?

Déjà
L'infarctus vient de frôler
Quelques costards, cravates
Déjà
Ont raccroché le combiné
Mais y a pas feu au lac
Changement de main, changement de vilain

Les passeurs c'est pas sûr
Pas franc comme l'or dur
La business-class se casse
Sans laisser de trace
La jet-society lasse
Tombe dans la mélasse
Les passeurs c'est pas sûr
Pas franc comme l'or dur

Jamais
Tu r'verras ton blé
Jamais
Faut l'oublier

From Here To Shanghai
Composer(s): Irving Berlin



I've often wandered down to dreamy Chinatown
The home of Chingaling 
It's fine! I must declare
But now I'm going where I can see the real, real thing

I'll have them teaching me to speak their language, gee!
When I can talk Chinese, I'll come home on the run
Then have a barr'll of fun
Calling people what I please

I'll soon be there
In a bamboo chair 
For I've got my fare, from here to Shanghai
Just picture me
Sipping Oolong, tea
Served by a Chinaman, who speaks away up high
("Hock-a-my, Hock-a-my") 
I'll eat the way they do, with a pair of wooden sticks
And I'll have Ching Ling Foo
Doing all his magic tricks 
I'll get my mail from a pale pigtail
For I mean to sail
From here to Shanghai

The Lady With The Big Umbrella
Composer(s): David Nelson - Danny Goodman
Performer(s): Dean Martin



The lady with the big umbrella
Her name is Rosabella
You'll always see her with a fella
And her pink and yella umbrella

She isn't much for fancy dancing
But this girl sure loves romancing
She's the lady with the big umbrella
And her name is Rosabella

With her umbrella in her hand
She's never shy and that's the reason why
She has a guy that's why
For love's a thing she really knows, there is no doubt
For what it's all about she has found out

So plan a trip to Venezuela
You must see Rosabella
You'll always see her with a fella
And a pink and yella umbrella

(La la la la la la la la...)
(La la la la la la la la...)
(La la la la la la la la...)
(La la la la la la la la...)

With her umbrella in her hand
She's never shy and that's the reason why
She has a guy that's why
For love's a thing she really knows there is no doubt
For what it's all about she has found out

So plan a trip to Venezuela
You must see Rosabella
You'll always see her with a fella
'Cause some say that her umbrella
Is the way she gets a fella
But is it her umbrella
Or Rosabella

You vowed your love from here to eternity
A love so true, it never would die
You gave your lips, gave them so willingly
How could I know your kiss meant good-bye? 

Now I'm alone, with only a memory
My empty arms will never know why 
Though you are gone, this love that you left with me 
Will live from here to eternity

Now I'm alone, with only a memory
My empty arms will never know why 
Though you are gone, this love that you left with me 
This endless desire, will live from here to eternity

The Lady On The Cameo
Composer(s): Hoffman - Kent - Kurtz
Performer(s): Sam Browne



Once I stopped at a little shop
And a girl on a lovely cameo
Caught my eye and my heart leaped high
Seemed I heard her say hello

Just one look overtook my heart
I was part of a world I didn’t know
Taken there by the sweet and fair
Lady on the cameo

We were strolling in a garden
When a chansonette
Softly drifted through
She confided as we glided in a minuet
I love you

Moments rare were the moments there
Drifting back to the lovely long ago
Side by side with the dreamy eyed
Lady on the cameo

Change The World
Composer(s): Tommy Sims - Gordon Kenney - Wayne Kirkpatrick
First release by: Eric Clapton - 1996



If I can reach the stars
Pull one down for you
Shine it on my heart
So you could see the truth
That this love I have inside
Is everything it seems
But for now I find
It's only in my dreams

And I can change the world
I will be the sunlight in your universe
You would think my love was really something good
Baby if I could change the world

And if I could be king
Even for a day
I'd take you as my queen
I'd have it no other way
And our love would rule
This kingdom we had made
Till then I'd be a fool
Wishing for the day...

That I can change the world
I would be the sunlight in your universe
You would think my love was really something good
Baby if I could change the world
Baby if I could change the world

I could change the world
I would be the sunlight in your universe
You would think my love was really something good
Baby if I could change the world
Baby if I could change the world
Baby if I could change the world
