    Tell me your secret
    I don't just want to know about any secret of yours... (Oh...)
    Because tonight I want you to learn all about the secrets
    In your garden

    I wanna read your mind, know you deepest feelings
    I wanna make it right for you
    Baby, show me
    Let me share the mystery, oh... (Ooh)
    (Come on, come on, come on, come on)
    Listen to your heart tonight
    (Come on, come on, come on)
    Make it alright, yeah, yeah, yeah
    (Come on, come out tonight)

    I know a melody that we could sing together
    I’ve got the secret key to you, baby
    Let’s make music
    Harmonizin’ ecstasy
    (Come on, come on, come on, come on)
    Come on, sing it to me

    Here in the garden
    Where temptation feels so right (Oh...)
    Passion can make you fall for what you feel
    In the garden (Ooh...)
    We can make it come alive (We can make it come alive)
    Every night, oh, woman (Every single night)
    Your secret garden, hoo..., hoo..., hoo..., hoo...

    (Oh, baby)
    I need to be with you, let me lay beside you
    Do what you want me too all night
    Gonna hold you
    Ooh, baby, can I touch you there
    (Come on, come on, come on, come on)
    I can keep you satisfied, baby
    (Come on, come on, come on)
    Ooh, ooh-wee, ooh-wee, baby
    Please, baby, oh, darlin’

    (Yeah, baby)
    I’ll take good care of you
    That’s what a man is supposed to do
    And I’ll be there for you all the time
    Let your hair down
    Let me get you in the mood
    (Come on, come on, come on, come on)
    Come on, take me, take me with you

    Into the garden (Into the garden)
    Where temptation feels so right
    Passion can make you fall for what you feel
    In the garden
    We can make it come alive
    Every night, oh, woman
    Here in the garden

    And I never wanted anyone
    (Woo..., ooh..., ooh..., woo...)
    I never wanted anyone as much as I, as much as I want you
    I want you to show me, I want you to tell me how you feel
    (Ooh-wee, ooh-wee...) All the secrets

    If you think I am gonna take care of you
    If you think I have got what you need
    Sho’ you right (And I want to take our time because we have all night)

    If you think I am gonna be good to you
    If you think I like what you do
    Sho’ you right (Oh, I’m gon’ be so good to you, baby, ooh-wee, ooh-wee...)

    If you think I am gonna take care of you (Hey...)
    If you think I have got what you need

    If you think I am gonna be good to you
    If you think I like what you do
    Sho’ you right (Sho’ you right, baby, you don’t know me)

    If you think I am gonna take care of you (Ooh...)
    If you think I have got what you need
    Sho’ you right (How does that feel)

    If you think I am gonna be good to you (I’m gonna be good to you)
    If you think I like what you do (Oh...)
    Sho’ you right (Oh...) (Sho' you right...)

    If you think I am gonna take care of you (Hoo...)

    Riacho Do Navio
    Composer(s): Luiz Gonzaga; Zé Dantas
    Performer(s): Raimundo Fagner



    Riacho do Navio corre pro Pajeú
    O rio Pajeú vai despejar no São Francisco
    O rio São Francisco vai bater no meio do mar
    Se eu fosse um peixe
    Ao contrário do rio
    Nadava contra as águas e nesse desafio
    Saía lá do mar, pro riacho do navio
    Eu ia diretinho pro riacho do navio
    Fazer o meu ranchinho
    Fazer umas caçadas, vê as pegas de boi
    Andar nas vaquejadas
    Dormir ao som do cocalho
    E acordar na passarada
    Sem rádio e sem notícia
    Das terras civilizadas
    Meu amor não vá s’imbora
    Fique mais um bocadinho
    Se você for seu nêgo chora
    Vamos ficar mais um tiquinho
    Quando eu entro numa farra
    Não quero sair mais não
    Vou até quebra a barra
    E pegar o sol com a mão

    The Second Time Around
    Composer(s): Sammy Cahn - Jimmy Van Heusen
    First performance by: Bing Crosby - 1960
    Covered by multiple other artists



    Love is lovelier the second time around
    Just as wonderful with both feet on the ground
    It's that second time you hear your love song sung
    Makes you think, perhaps, that love, like youth
    is wasted on the young

    Love's more comfortable the second time you fall
    Like a friendly home, the second time you call
    Who can say what brought us to this miracle we've found?
    There are those who'll bet love comes but once, and yet
    I'm oh so glad we met the second time around

    Who can say what brought us to this miracle we've found?
    There are those who'll bet love comes but once, and yet
    I'm oh so glad we met the second time around

    Cocktails For Two Composer(s): Arthur Johnston - Sam Coslow Performer(s): Carl Brisson and multiple other artists



    Oh what delight to be given the right To be carefree and gay once again No longer slinking, respectably drinking Like civilized ladies and men No longer need we miss A charming scene like this.... In some secluded rendezvous That overlooks the avenue With someone sharing a delightful chat Of this and that, and cocktails for two As we enjoy a cigarette To some exquisite chansonnette Two hands are sure to slyly meet beneath A serviette, with cocktails for two My head may go reeling But my heart will be obedient With intoxicating kisses For the principal ingredient Most any afternoon at five We'll be so glad we're both alive Then maybe fortune will complete her plan That all began with cocktails for two

    Versions In Other Languages: 1963 - Ritme Van De Regen (Rob de Nijs) 1963 - En Écoutant La Pluie (Richard Anthony)



    Listen to the rhythm of the falling rain
    telling me just what a fool I’ve been
    I wish that it would go and let me cry in vain
    and let me be alone again

    The only girl I care about has gone away
    looking for a brand new start
    but little does she know that when she left that day
    along with her she took my heart

    Rain, please, tell me now, does that seem fair
    for her to steal my heart away when she don’t care
    I can’t love another when my heart’s somewhere far away

    The only girl I care about has gone away
    looking for a brand new start
    but little does she know that when she left that day
    along with her she took my heart

    Falling rain
    Cry in vain

    But, rain, won’t you tell her that I love her so
    Please, ask the sun to set her heart aglow
    Rain in her heart, and let the love we knew start to grow

    Listen to the rhythm of the falling rain
    telling me just what a fool I’ve been
    I wish that it would go and let me cry in vain
    and let me be alone again

    Falling rain
    Falling rain
    Listen to the rhythm of the falling rain
    Falling rain
    Listen to the rhythm of the
    Listen to the rhythm of the
    Cry in vain
    Listen to the rhythm of the

    The only girl I care about has gone away
    looking for a brand new start
    but little does she know that when she left that day
    along with her she took my heart

    Covered by multiple other artists



    The second star to the right
    Shines in the night for you
    To tell you that the dreams you plan
    Really can come true

    The second star to the right
    Shines with a light that's rare
    And if it's Never Land you need
    It's light will lead you there

    Twinkle, twinkle little star
    So I'll know where you are
    Gleaming in the skies above
    Lead me to the one who loves me

    And when you bring him my way
    Each time we say "Goodnight"
    We'll thank the little star that shines
    The second from the right

    Puisque ce soir tu es fâchée
    C'est bien toi qui l'a cherché
    Dans l'alcool je veux me noyer
    Je veux aussi
    Barman! Un cocktail pour moi

    Tu n'as pas honte de boire comme ça
    Puisque tu bois pourquoi pas moi
    Ta tête est plus dure que du bois
    Et toi aussi
    Barman! Un cocktail pour moi

    Ma mère m'avait bien dit
    Surtout méfie-toi de ce Johnny

    Quand j'ai dit "j'épouse Sylvie"
    Mes copains pleuraient
    Je n'ai pas compris
    Les filles mon dieu quelle invention
    Quelle catastrophe pour les garçons
    Ça me servira de leçon
    À moi aussi
    Barman! Un cocktail pour moi

    Mais qui c'est celui-là
    J'attends Johnny ne restez-pas là

    Mais que faites-vous ici
    Laissez cette place
    Moi j'attends Sylvie

    Tiens quelle surprise que fais-tu là
    Un hasard je passais par là
    On prend un verre pour fêter ça
    Tu crois?
    Je crois!
    Barman! Un cocktail pour deux

    When it feels like the world is on your shoulders
    and all of the madness has got you goin crazy

    It's time to get out, step out into the street
    Where all of the action is right there at your feet, well..

    underneath the electric stars
    Just come with me and we can shake your blues right away
    You'll be doin fine once the music starts...

    dance until the morning light
    Forget about the worries on your mind
    you can leave them all behind
    feel the beat of the rhythm of the night..
    oohh the rhythm of the night...ooohh yeah

    Look out on the street now, the party's just beginning
    The music's playing, a celebration's starting

    Under the streetlights, the scene is being set
    A night for romance
    A night you won't forget, so

    Come join the fun, this ain't no time to be staying home
    mmm..there's too much going on...oh!
    Tonight is gonna be a night like you've never known
    We're gonna have a good time the whole night long...oh!

    Composer(s): James Yorkston; Edmund Forman



    In Dublin's fair city
    Where girls are so pretty
    Twas there that I first met
    Sweet Molly Malone
    As she wheeled her wheelbarrow
    Through streets broad and narrow
    Mussels
    Cockles and mussels, alive, alive oh
    Alive, alive oh, alive, alive oh
    Crying
    Cockles and mussels, alive, alive oh

    Now she was a fishmonger
    And sure twas no wonder
    For so were her mother
    Ad father before
    And they each
    Wheeled their barrows
    Through streets broad and narrow
    Crying
    Cockles and mussels, alive, alive oh
    She died of a fever
    And no one could save her
    And that was the end
    Of sweet Molly Malone
    Now her ghost
    Wheels her barrow
    Through streets
    Broad and narrow
    Crying
    Cockles and mussels, alive, alive oh

    Coke machines on the Ho Chi Minh trail
    Russian spies shopping at Bloomingdales
    Killer bees swarming up the Rio Grande
    Hey baby where'd you get that tan
    Rome burns as we dance cheek to cheek
    Titanic's sinking but oooh do we look chic
    New york city's got the Hong Kong flu
    And I can't take my eyes off you

    I still want to know who shot JFK

    Let's swing

    C'mon let's dance
    To the rhythm of romance
    Let's kiss
    Let's fall in love

    Johnny woke up from his American dream
    Rich man poor man and a desert in between
    Crystal chandeliers hangin' by a thread
    We're in the pink baby just two trillon in the red
    And I hear Gabriel blowing his saxophone
    Through a great big hole in the ozone
    Who cares if the sun don't rise
    When I look in to your ultraviolet eyes
    That's life, this is war
    I took it on faith, can't take it anymore
    Old, young, yin and yang
    We'll all go together in the next big bang
    Boom shug a lug a lug a boom

    Let's dance
    To the rhythm of romance
    Let's swing
    'neath the stars above
    C'mon let's dance
    To the rhythm of romance
    Let's kiss
    Let's fall in love

    The Second Arrangement
    Performer(s): Steely Dan



    Pour out the wine, little girl
    I've got just two friends in this whole wide world
    Here's to reckless lovers
    We all need somebody
    Stashed in the yellow Jag
    I've got my life and laundry in a Gladstone bag
    You should know the program
    Just one red rose and a tender goodbye
    [One last goodbye]

    And I run to the second arrangement
    It's only the natural thing
    Who steps out with no regrets
    A sparkling conscience
    A new address
    When I run to the second arrangement
    The home of a mutual friend
    Now's the time to redefine the first arrangement again

    It's a sticky situation
    A serious affair
    I must explain it to you somehow
    Right now I'll just move back one square

    Here comes that noise again
    Another scrambled message from my last best friend
    Something I can dance to
    A song with tears in it
    Old friends abandon me
    It's just the routine politics of jealousy
    Someday we'll remember
    That one red rose and one last goodbye
    [One last goodbye]

    [Chorus]

    Composer(s): David Allan Coe
    Performer(s): David Allan Coe



    Morning found me lyin' on a floor in New Orleans
    Looking like the patches was about to eat my jeans
    Feeling like my belly was a warehouse for the blues
    And I sure miss my sweet Cocaine Carolina
    Better on an ocean liner call the Cocaine Carolina
    She was quite a lady then and I was twenty two
    God knows how much I adored her I just never could afford her
    Cocaine Carolina how did I get hooked on you
    So goodbye Cocaine Carolina you and I are through
    I'm going back to Sandy Skag she knows just what to do
    She don't love me for my money she just wants my body honey
    Cocaine Carolina how did I get hooked on you

    Oh someone said if I was lucky I could go back to Kentucky
    Lexington was famous for its bluegrass and its hills
    Carolina we should get up don't you know we'll have to split up
    Baby I should go to California
    Goodbye Cocaine Carolina...
    Oh goodbye Cocaine Carolina...
    Oh goodbye Cocaine Carolina...

    Across the street the river runs
    Down in the gutter life is slipping away
    Let me still exist in another place
    Running down under cover
    Of a helicopter blade

    The flames are getting higher
    In effigy
    Burning down the bridges of my memory
    Love may still alive
    somewhere someday
    where they're downing only deer
    a hundred steel towns away

    Oh, rhythm of my heart
    is beating like a drum
    with the words "I Love you"
    rolling off my tongue
    No never will I roam
    for I know my place is home
    Where the ocean meets the sky
    I'll be sailing

    Photographs and kerosene
    light up my darkness
    light it up
    light it up
    I can still feel the touch
    of your thin blue jeans
    Running down the alley
    I've got my eyes all over you, baby
    Oh, baby

    Oh, the rhythm of my heart
    is beating like a drum
    with the words "I Love you"
    rolling off my tongue
    No never will I roam
    for I know my place is home
    Where the ocean meets the sky
    I'll be sailing

    Oh, yeah

    Oh, I've got lightning in my veins
    shifting like the handle
    of a slot machine
    Love may still exist
    in another place
    I'm just yanking back the handle
    no expression on my face

    Oh, the rhythm of my heart
    is beating like a drum
    with the words "I Love you"
    rolling off my tongue
    No never will I roam
    for I know my place is home
    Where the ocean meets the sky
    I'll be sailing

    Oh, the rhythm of my heart
    is beating like a drum
    with the words "I Love you"
    rolling off my tongue
    No never will I roam
    for I know my place is home
    Where the ocean meets the sky
    I'll be sailing

    The rhythm of my heart
    is beating like a drum
    with the words "I Love you" rolling off my tongue.
    No never will I roam
    for I know my place is home
    Where the ocean meets the sky
    I'll be sailing

    The Seaside Band
    Composer(s): Kenneth Blain
    Performer(s): Arthur Askey



    Once, at the seaside, feeling very restless
    I ran down tuppence and I rolled on the pier
    Hadn't gone far when the strains of music
    Floated on the breeze and landed in my ear
    I quickened up me steps for I love nice noises
    Very soon arrived right opposite the band
    Saw the conductor on a lemonade box
    With his little baton stuck up in his right hand

    One two three four, off went the cornet
    Five six seven eight, the fiddles followed too
    A man in the corner playing on the piccolo
    Keeping time with the sole of his boot
    Right behind him was a fellow with the trombone
    Blowing like the devil with his cheeks out wide
    Working so hard that both his little eyeballs
    Left their sockets and stood outside

    Hanging on a rostrum, a drummer, very lonely
    Drums all round like bees in a swarm
    Looking very cold with his nose quite scarlet
    Banging on the cymbals to keep himself warm
    Opposite to him was the man with the toupee
    Spitting down a reed - what a nasty man!
    Sitting next to him was a fellow with a French horn
    Full of soul and bitter beer, tuppence on the can

    Fellow with a cello, boom boom boom boom
    Trying very hard to saw it in two
    His pal with the double bass, cuddling it fondly
    Looking like a camel with a dose of the flu
    Man with a piccolo, fed up with the dancing
    Sick and tired of hearing the same old toot
    Thought he'd like a change so he put it down beside him
    And then started messing with a full size flute

    Man with the bassoon, nothing on his music
    Acted like a mute, never said a word
    Just as I thought he was going to fall asleep
    He picked up his bassoon and gave us all the bird
    Then a little man with walrus whiskers
    How he got his breath, well I don't know
    Found he got his fungus stuffed up the mouthpiece
    And wondered why he couldn't play his little oboe

    Man with the trombone lost his temper
    Thought they could not hear him and said, 'Here goes'
    Took a long breath and threw all of his false teeth
    Right on the bridge of the conductor's nose
    Then the conductor, getting very angry
    Raised his other hand, with a rum-tum-tum
    Caused such a draught that the man with the harp
    Went clean through the air and fell through the drum

    Bang bang bang went the man with the cymbals
    Toodle-oodle-oo went the flute so gay
    Fiddles and violas screaming like the wind
    And the cornet broke his promise, trying to reach top A
    What a pandemonium everybody different
    Each with the other one, trying to compete
    Strange to relate it must've been a fluke
    But they all finished dead on the same down-beat

    Oh, Rule Britannia, they kept the party clean
    And I felt sorry when they played
    God Save Our Queen

    Come, my baby
    Dressed in white
    Hey, baby
    Won't you stay the night

    Cocaine
    All around my brain

    Come, my baby
    Dressed in red
    Hey, baby
    Won't you come to bed

    Cocaine
    All around my brain

    Hey, baby
    Won't you please come quick
    This old cocaine
    Is making me sick

    Cocaine
    All around my brain

    Come, my baby
    Dressed in green
    Hey, baby
    Can't be seen

    Cocaine
    All around my brain

    Hey, baby
    Won't you please come quick
    This old cocaine
    Is making me sick

    Cocaine
    All around my brain

    Cocaine
    All around my brain

    Rhythm Of Love
    Composer(s): Jon Anderson;
    Tony Kaye; Trevor Rabin; Chris Squire
    Performer(s): Yes



    Innocence no answer
    To your breaking heart
    If the situation
    Sometimes falls apart
    Then in this ecstasy
    Your charms are frozen
    No emotion falling through your arms
    Morning, daydream, time still growing shorter
    Take me over lead me to the water
    To the rhythm of love
    The rhythm of love
    The rhythm of love
    Why should I escort you
    To your secret needs
    Climbing up your ladder
    I keep falling down
    Anyway will do
    Anyone will do
    When you dance to your darkest tune
    Surrounded
    As you crawl around the room
    Night time fever burning till you're higher
    Take me over lead me through the fire
    The rhythm of love
    To the rhythm of love
    The rhythm of love
    To the rhythm of love
    Morning daydream midnight fever
    Morning daydream midnight fever
    Inhibitions keep you from your point of view
    Information needing to confuse
    In this situation I have found you
    In the rhythm of
    Morning daydream midnight fever
    Morning daydream midnight fever
    Rhythm of love
    Rhythm of love
    To the rhythm of love
    Rhythm of love

    The Searchers
    Composer(s): Stan Jones
    Performer(s): The Sons Of The Pioneers



    What makes a man to wander?
    What makes a man to roam?
    What makes a man leave bed and board
    And turn his back on home?
    Ride away, ride away, ride away
    A man will search his heart and soul
    Go searchin' way out there
    His peace of mind he knows he'll find
    But where, oh Lord, Lord where?
    Ride away, ride away, ride away
