    The System
    Composer(s): Merl Saunders - Carrier
    Performer(s): Jerry Garcia & Merl Saunders



    Who will you murder
    For democracy
    Who's next to be slain

    People wait to be
    Sucked up
    By your genocide campaign

    Murdered for
    Technology

    Natural resources too

    While earth faces extinction
    Guess what?
    They say prayers on the moon

    I'm talkin', talkin' about the system (system)
    Said I'm talkin', talkin' about the system (system)
    I said the funky, funky system (system)
    I said the funky, funky system (system)

    Who will you murder
    For democracy
    Who's next to be slain

    People wait to be
    Sucked up
    By your genocide campaign

    No sociology
    Equality of life
    We'll only save ourselves
    By lessening human strife

    Feel the system
    Stalk the land
    And with death goes
    Hand in hand

    I'm talkin', talkin' about the system (system)
    Said I'm talkin', talkin' about the system (system)
    I said the funky, funky system (system)
    I said the funky, funky system (system)

    Who will you murder
    For democracy
    Who's next to be slain

    People wait to be
    Sucked up
    By your genocide campaign

    No sociology
    Equality of life
    We'll only save ourselves
    By lessening human strife

    So the system
    Stalks the land
    And with death goes
    Hand in hand

    I'm talkin', talkin' about the system (system)
    Said I'm talkin', talkin' about the system (system)
    I said the funky, funky system (system)
    I said the funky, funky system (system)

    Said the system, yeah
    The funky, funky system (system)
    The funky, funky system (system)
    The funky, funky system (system)...

    Come Home
    Composer(s): Dave Clark; Mike Smith
    Originally performed by: The Dave Clark Five



    As I write my letter today
    Tears start fallin' from my eyes
    I remember things we used to say
    And the ties that bind our love

    Only one thing I want to do
    Come home (whoa yeah)
    Come home
    Long as I know I'm comin' home to you
    I'm comin' home

    Please remember while I'm away
    I think of you night and day
    Of the things, of the fun
    While we were one

    Only one thing I want to do
    Come home, come home
    Long as I know I'm comin' home to you

    I didn't think I'd ever be, whoa whoa
    As bad as it's been, no-no-no
    But now I'm comin' home
    To give you a ring

    As I write my letter today
    Tears start fallin' from my eyes
    I remember things we used to say
    And the ties that bind our love

    Only one thing I want to do
    Come home (whoa whoa yeah)
    Come home
    Long as I know I'm comin' home to you

    Only one thing I want to do
    Come home (whoa whoa)
    Come home

    Rio Nights
    Performer(s): The Blue Diamonds



    Rio nights are full of silent splendour
    Down in dreamy old Brazil
    Stars begin to shine, and one that I call mine
    Just waits for me, I know she loves me still

    The fleecy clouds like mantles hide the hilltops
    There beside the Southern sea
    At this bewitching hour, beneath an old rose bower
    Somebody there is lonesome just for me

    Rio nights are full of silent splendour
    Down in dreamy old Brazil
    Stars begin to shine, and one that I call mine
    Just waits for me, I know she loves me still

    The fleecy clouds like mantles hide the hilltops
    There beside the Southern sea
    At this bewitching hour, beneath an old rose bower
    Somebody there is lonesome just for me
    Somebody there is lonesome just for me

    The Syncopated Clock
    ((Danish Version: Det Taktløse Ur (Gustav Winckler) - 1952))
    Composer(s): Leroy Anderson - Mitchell Parish
    First release by: Leroy Anderson and His "Pops" Concert Orch.
    Covered by multiple other artists



    There was a man like you and me
    As simple as a man could ever be
    And he was happy as a king
    Except for one peculiar thing

    He had a clock that worked all right
    It worked all right, but not exactly quite
    Instead of going "tick, tock, tick"
    The crazy clock went "tock, tick, tock"

    The poor old man just raved and raved
    Because nobody could say
    Why his silly clock behaved
    That hickory dickory way
    .
    But now a famous man is he
    He owns a public curiosity
    From far and wide the people flock
    To hear the syncopated clock

    Tick-a-tock, tick-a-tock
    There's a zing in the swing of that clock
    Tock-a-tick, tock-a-tick
    Don't you think it's a marvelous trick

    Ting-a-ling, ting-a-ling
    There's a zong in the bong of that ring
    Ling-a-ting, ling-a-ting
    Don't you think it's a wonderful thing

    The experts came to hear and see
    But none of them could solve the mystery
    They called Professor Einstein too
    He said "There's nothing I can do"

    But soon the fickle human race
    Will find another freak to take its place
    And one fine day the man will hock
    The poor old syncopated clock

    Io ti voglio bene
    come nella mia vita non è accaduto mai
    così profondamente che ho paura di me
    di questo smisurato amore
    che adesso provo per te

    Io ti desidero
    un desiderio nuovo che mi tormenta
    talvolta mi domando
    com'è possibile
    che mi debba addormentare
    mi debba risvegliare
    andare e ritornare
    e avere te sempre davanti a me
    negli occhi miei
    nei miei pensieri
    in ogni istante della mia vita

    Io ho bisogno di te
    come la barca ha bisogno del mare
    per poter andare
    la primavera ha bisogno del sole
    per poter fiorire
    la farfalla di un fiore
    un bimbo di una mano che l'accompagni
    un cane di un padrone
    e del vento l'aquilone per poter volare
    ed io di te sempre vicino a me
    in ogni istante della mia vita

    Ma come hai fatto
    a farmi innamorare così tanto
    mi guardo nello specchio
    e mi domando
    se quello lì sono io
    ma come hai fatto
    a far della mia vita
    una tua cosa
    a trasformare il tempo
    in un'attesa
    di rivedere te
    no non ha senso
    questa mia vita
    e più ci penso
    e più è un filo
    nelle tue mani

    Ma come hai fatto
    non so nemmeno quando è incominciato
    io so soltanto che nella mia vita
    non è accaduto mai
    la prima volta
    che dico veramente
    ti voglio bene

    Negli occhi miei
    nei miei pensieri
    in ogni istante della mia vita
    sempre vicino a me

    Ma come hai fatto
    a far della mia vita una tua cosa
    a trasformare il tempo in un'attesa
    di rivedere te
    la prima volta che dico veramente
    ti voglio bene

    Rio Nights
    Composer(s): Elmer Vincent; Fisher Thompson



    When night has fallen down in dear old Rio
    Down in dreamy old Brazil
    The stars begin to shine, and one that I call mine
    Just waits for me
    I know she loves me still
    The fleecy clouds like mantles hide the hilltops
    There beside the southern sea
    At this bewitching hour, beneath an old rose bower
    Somebody there is lonesome just for me
    Rio nights are full of silent splendor
    When the tropic moon is in the sky
    I keep growing fonder
    Every time I wander
    With a maid who is so sweet and shy
    Romantic Rio weaves a spell around you
    Golden hours we spent so bright and gay
    You just want to spoon
    Parting comes too soon
    When you linger down that Rio way
    When night has fallen down in dear old Rio
    Down in dreamy old Brazil
    The one I call my own
    Is now no more alone
    I sit beside her there when all is still
    The fleecy clouds like mantles hide the moonlight
    Out beyond the harbor lights
    But at this wooing hour, we sit beneath our bower
    United once again on Rio nights

    The Sweetest Thing (I've Ever Known)
    Composer(s): Otha Young
    Performer(s): Juice Newton; Emile Pandolfi



    When I see you in the morning
    With that old sleep still in your eyes
    I remember all the laughter
    And the tears we shared last night
    And as we lie here
    Just two shadows
    In the light before the dawn
    The sweetest thing
    I've ever known
    Is lovin' you

    And I have never been afraid of losin'
    And I have never wanted love to be a chain
    I only know that when I'm with you
    You're my sunshine, you're my rain
    The sweetest thing
    I've ever known
    Is lovin' you

    Now you and I
    We're not children
    We have both been loved before
    We have given and we have taken
    Many rides on troubled shores
    But all the heartaches and temptations
    Only made me love you more
    The sweetest thing
    I've ever know
    Is lovin' you

    And I have never been afraid of losin'
    And I have never wanted love to be a chain
    I only know that when I'm with you
    You're my sunshine, you're my rain
    The sweetest thing
    I've ever known
    Is lovin' you

    The sweetest thing
    I've ever known
    Is loving yooooooou

    Rio Marrón
    Composer(s): Jorge Fandermole
    Performer(s): Juan Carlos Baglietto



    No puedo perderte mujer del rio
    cuerpo marrón, del rio marrón
    las manos como ondas en la orilla
    que la permanencia
    en la confluencia
    formando los muslos combados
    espejos de luna fugitiva
    Rio marrón
    devolveme sangre abajo
    de tu paso el lirio negro
    que llegó junto a tu orilla

    Rio, rio marrón
    llevá en un pez esta canción
    que alguien me espera
    de cara a las estrellas
    Causa arriba
    Rio marrón
    animal de barro que huye
    que como la vida fluye
    sin volver nunca a la altura
    Si pudiera remontarte tiempo atrás
    para ver la claridad
    en su semblante
    y no faltó un instante
    de ternura, rio marrón

    El agua que baja nunca es la misma
    y al recordar nos vamos al mar
    porque el pasado yace en lo profundo
    y como el amor
    dura una creciente
    el dolor es caudal permanente
    la sangre su espejo
    y la vida reflejo del rio marrón
    Rio marrón, devolveme
    Rio marrón
    Y el cielo que se rompe
    desde aqui hasta el horizonte
    luz de luna sumergida
    si pudiera remontarte tiempo atras
    para ver en la opacidad del tiempo ido
    si aquel fulgor perdido
    era la vida
    rio marrón

    The Sweetest Song In The World
    Composer(s): Harry Parr-Davies
    Performer(s): Gracie Fields



    The sweetest song in the world is sung
    When lights are low and your heart is young
    We sang it together in the twilight glow
    Not so very long ago, do you recall?
    That sweet old song is the same today
    I love you still in the same old way
    For it is love and love alone can bring to you
    The sweetest song in the world

    Do you remember when you came along
    And we both fell in love at a glance
    Of course you remember, `twas loves old sweet song
    That we sang in the springtime of romance
    Even though dreams fade away
    I know that I'm right when I say

    (Gracie's soprano for two lines)
    We sang it together in the twilight glow
    Not so very long ago, do you recall?
    That sweet old song is the same today
    I love you still in the same old way
    For it is love and love alone can bring to you
    The sweetest song in the world

    When I was a young man my daddy told me
    A lesson he learned, it was a long time ago
    If you want to have someone to hold onto
    You're gonna have to learn to let go

    You got to sing like you don't need the money
    Love like you'll never get hurt
    You got to dance like nobody's watchin'
    It's gotta come from the heart if you want it to work

    Now here is the one thing that I keep forgetting
    When everything is falling apart
    In life as in love, what I need to remember
    There's such a thing as trying too hard

    Performer(s): Eddy Mitchell



    Ça commence comme dans un film noir
    Un jeune couple embarqué dans une sale histoire
    P'tit voleurs fichés et recherchés
    La vie les a changés en marginaux blessés

    En cavale, changeant chaque soir
    D'hôtel, d'identité
    Évitant les bars
    Bêtes traqués, une seule lueur d'espoir
    Ça s'ra la fin du blues
    Dans l'port de Vera Cruz

    {Refrain:}
    Rio, Rio Grande
    Dès la frontière passée
    Nous s'rons blanchis, sauvés
    Rio, Rio Grande
    Le temps va s'arrêter
    Pour mieux nous oublier
    On s'promet une vie, sans blues
    Tout commence à Vera Cruz

    Vrais mensonges, rêveurs éveillés
    Le Mexique est bien loin du supermarché
    Les vigiles nous ont vite repérés
    Ça s'ra toujours le blues
    Dans la banlieue d'Mulhouse

    {Refrain...}

    The Sweetest Melody Of All
    Composer(s): Grant Clarke - Jimmie V. Monaco



    When I was born I had an ear for music, I loved sweet lullabies
    And every morn' when I would hear sweet music, I'd open up my eyes
    Father bought a baby grand, I learned to play it with one hand
    Music always made me gay
    And I'm the same today

    Down in the hall we've got a pianola
    It's going night and day
    And that's not all
    We bought a new victrola
    To make the servants stay
    All the kids have tuneful toys
    Or anything for nifty noise
    Tho' grandmother's eighty three
    She sings close harmony

    I love to hear sweet melodies, I love the song birds in the trees
    I love an opera grand
    A big brass band
    Or any little tune from Dixie land
    I love to hear the bugle call
    For any tune I'm bound to fall
    But to hear a little baby calling you papa
    That's the sweetest melody of all

    I love to hear sweet melodies, I love the song birds in the trees
    I love an opera grand
    A big brass band
    Or any little tune from Dixie land
    I love to hear the bugle call
    For any tune I'm bound to fall
    But to hear a little baby calling you mama
    That's the sweetest melody of all

    I jumped off a bridge
    And went swimming for hours
    And nobody nobody's looking
    I came to a hotel with
    Double rooms and showers
    And nobody nobody's knocking
    The phone rings on a nightstand
    Somebody whispers 'hello' I don't know
    Too many words after so many miles
    Somebody whispers 'hello' I don't know
    I don't know
    Nescio
    Questo paradiso
    Nescio
    Questo quadro ` bello

    Texas to Tennessee Blue
    Highway to Highway
    Just to Get Back to You
    With the Barren Winds Blowin’
    A Jealous Moon ‘cross the Plains
    I’ll Only Be Runnin’ and Callin’ Your Name

    I Should Have Never Left You
    After What I Held Close
    With the Hours Slippin’ By
    From the One I Love Most
    Chasing Days That Take Flight
    And the Mist From My Eyes
    I Die a Little Each Day With You So Far Away

    Oh My Darlin’ I’ve Cried These Many Miles
    A Kiss in the Shadows, a Whispered Memory
    I’ll Be Waiting, All of My Life, Only My Only (Only My Lonely)
    Rio Esperanza, It’s the River of Hope

    There’s a Place in My Heart Where You’ll Always Be
    Where the Shallows Run Long, and the Driftin’ Is Free

    Oh My Darlin’ I’ve Cried These Many Miles
    A Kiss in the Shadows, a Whispered Memory
    I’ll Be Waiting, All of My Life, Only My Only (Only My Lonely)
    Rio Esperanza, It’s the River of Hope

    Across Windswept Hills Your Voice Calms to Caress Me
    Like a Lover Stealing Glances
    I Can’t Wait to Hold You
    See the Light Flicker Softly
    In a Blue Silverscape
    It’s Such Sweet Surrender (And) I’ve Come Home Again

    Oh My Darling
    A Kiss in the Shadows
    A Whispered Memory
    I'll Be Waiting
    All of My Life
    Only My Only
    Rio Esperanza
    It's the River of Hope

    The Swan
    Composer(s): Jule Styne - Bob Merrill
    Performer(s): Barbra Streisand



    What are ya gonna do?
    Shoot da swans? These lovelies?
    Can't you see when you look at me
    What a lovely creature is a swan - yo hoo!!
    I'm all over fluffy white
    I wouldn't peck at you or bite
    And have tiny twinkle toes to dance upon-
    Oh was that good?
    So you just gotta have a swan
    Or you're out of luck
    `Cause a chicken wouldn't do it
    Would only cluck
    And besides you couldn't say
    "I saw a chicken leg ballet"
    They would think you don't know nothin'
    You are missing you are button
    `Cause a chicken's only good for consummate
    Where upon, where upon,
    Where upon where upon
    A chicken or a duck is a mistake
    When you do Swan Lake Ballet!

    Come Fly With Me
    Composer(s): Sammy Cahn; Jimmy van Heusen
    Originally performed by: Frank Sinatra
    Covered by various other artists



    Come fly with me, let's fly, let's fly away
    If you can use some exotic booze
    There's a bar in far Bombay
    Come fly with me, we'll fly, we'll fly away

    Come fly with me, let's float down to Peru
    In llama land, there's a one-man band
    And he'll toot his flute for you
    Come fly with me, we'll float down in the blue

    Once I get you up there where the air is rarefied
    We'll just glide, starry-eyed
    Once I get you up there, I'll be holding you so near
    You may hear angels cheer because we're together

    Weatherwise it's such a lovely day
    You just say the word, and we'll beat the birds
    Down to Acapulco Bay
    It´s perfect for a flying honeymoon, they say
    Come fly with me, let's fly, let's fly away

    Rio De Janeiro Blue
    Composer(s): John Haeny; Richard Torrance
    Performer(s): Randy Crawford;
    and various other artists



    The clouds come-a creepin' and you got me weepin' this moment
    I can't believe you're really gonna leave this town
    everyone knows, I can't make a move with you
    you're turnin' my whole world, upside-down
    and I get a feelin' that I've seen the last of you, Rio De Janeior Blue

    The salty air, your wind-blown hair, reflection on a dream
    thoughts of you with who knows who, flowin' through me like a stream
    Brazilian serenades, linger on
    help me lose my soul, in your song
    and I get a feelin', that I've seen that last of you, Rio De Janeiro Blue
    Rio De Janeiro Blue

    Months go by, I wonder why, I'm left here on my own
    could it be my destiny, is to live this life alone
    these dark and rainy days have turned me cold
    long and sleepless nights, gettin' on
    and I get a feelin' that I've seen the last of you, Rio De Janeiro Blue
    Rio De Janeiro Blue

    Rio.... Rio, De Janeiro Blue
    Long and sleepless nights, whoa no
    Rio...... Rio

    Swamp Girl
    Composer(s): Lew Brown
    Performer(s): Frankie Laine; Ramsey Lewis



    Where the crane flies through the marshes
    And the turtles sun their shells
    Where the water rat goes swimmin'
    That's where my swamp girl dwells

    Where the sunlight never wanders
    And the moonlight never falls
    Where the water's black with the devil's track
    That's where my swamp girl calls

    What did she say there
    The girl with the golden hair
    To make me follow her down there
    How did she look when she took me by the hand

    Tonight her hair will float in the water
    And the gold will no longer shine
    It will spread like a fan in the water
    While she makes a mysterious sign
    I have seen that sign before

    Her eyes aren't like the whippoorwill
    And her eyes aren't like the frog
    Her eyes are like the damned bat
    Stretchin' in the dawn

    I have seen her face in the water
    And the chilling look in her eyes
    And if you see her, then you must flee her
    Never follow where disillusion lies

    Or will you go to the girl with the golden hair
    Down there where her work is done
    Will you embrace the night
    And turn your back on the sun

    She'll say its better there in the water
    Where it's cool and calm and serene
    She will call you to come to the water
    To a world made of emerald green
    I have heard that call before

    I can hear it when I'm teary
    I can hear it when I'm old
    I can hear it when the joy of living
    Seems to have lost its glow

    For my Swamp Girl lives inside of me
    And she leaves me pale and wan
    She dares me, she tears me
    Like paper dolls are torn

    Calling "Come to the deep
    Where your sleep is without a dream"
    (Come to the deep where your sleep is without a dream)
    Calling... (Come...)

    Come È Profondo Il Mare
    Composer(s): Lucio Dalla
    Performer(s): Lucio Dalla



    Siamo noi, siamo in tanti
    ci nascondiamo di notte
    per paura degli automobilisti
    dei linotipisti
    siamo gatti neri, siamo pessimisti, siamo i cattivi pensieri
    non abbiamo da mangiare, come è profondo il mare
    come è profondo il mare
    Babbo che eri un gran cacciatore di quaglie e di fagiani
    caccia via queste mosche che non mi fanno dormire
    che mi fanno arrabbiare
    come è profondo il mare, come è profondo il mare
    E` inutile non c'è più lavoro, non c'è più decoro
    Dio o chi per lui sta cercando di dividerci
    di farci del male
    di farci annegare
    come è profondo il mare come è profondo il mare
    Con la forza di un ricatto l'uomo divento qualcuno
    resuscito anche i morti, spalanco prigioni, blocco sei treni
    con relativi vagoni
    innalzo per un attimo il povero a un ruolo difficile
    da mantenere poi lo lascio cadere
    a piangere e a urlare
    solo in mezzo al mare
    come è profondo il mare
    Poi da solo l'urlo divento un tamburo e il povero
    come un lampo
    nel cielo sicuro
    comincio una guerra per conquistare quello scherzo di terra
    che il suo grande cuore doveva coltivare
    come è profondo il mare
    come è profondo il mare
    Ma la terra gli fu portata via compresa quella rimasta addosso
    fu scaraventato in un palazzo o in un fosso, non ricordo bene
    poi una storia di catene, bastonate e chirurgia sperimentale
    Come è profondo il mare, come è profondo il mare
    Intanto un mistico, forse un aviatore, scoprì la commozione
    che rimise d'accordo tutti, i belli con i brutti
    con qualche danno per i brutti che si videro consegnare
    un pezzo di specchio così da potersi guardare
    come è profondo il mare, come è profondo il mare
    Frattanto i pesci, dai quali discendiamo tutti
    assistettero curiosi, al dramma collettivo di questo mondo
    che a loro indubbiamente doveva sembrare cattivo
    e cominciarono a pensare, nel loro grande mare
    come è profondo il mare
    Nel loro grande mare, come è profondo il mare
    E` chiaro che il pensiero d…
    fastidio anche se chi pensa è muto come un pesce
    anzi è un pesce e come pesce è difficile da bloccare
    perchè lo protegge il mare, come è profondo il mare
    Certo chi comanda non è disposto a fare distinzioni poetiche
    il pensiero è come l'oceano
    non lo puoi bloccare, non lo puoi recintare
    Così stanno bruciando il mare
    così stanno uccidendo il mare
    così stanno umiliando il mare
    così stanno piegando il mare
