    There Will Never Be Another You
    Composer(s): Harry Warren - Mack Gordon
    First performance by: John Payne & Joan Merrill - 1942
    Covered by multiple other artists



    This is our last dance together
    Tonight soon will be long ago
    And in our moment of parting
    This is all I want you to know

    There will be many other nights like this
    And I'll be standing here with someone new
    There will be other songs to sing
    Another fall, another spring
    But there will never be another you

    There will be other lips that I may kiss
    But they won't thrill me like yours used to do
    Yes, I may dream a million dreams
    But how can they come true
    If there will never ever be another you

    Convite
    Composer(s): Guillermo De Anda
    Performer(s): Javier Solís



    Señalándome la gente ya no puedo vivir más
    les dirás que todos mienten
    que te adoro locamente
    que no dicen la verdad

    Si tú sabes que te quiero
    que por ti mil veces muero
    tienes que acallar las cosas
    que andan ya de boca en boca
    repartiendo su veneno

    En las cosas del amor nunca podrán ser más de dos
    y esto es un convite ya que la verdad no puedo más
    Si toditos los latidos de mi amante corazón
    sólo a ti te pertenecen por derecho, por amor
    lo que va de boca en boca no nos debe de importar
    si al Señor crucificaron qué podemos esperar

    En las cosas del amor nunca podrán ser más de dos
    y esto es un convite ya que la verdad no puedo más
    Si toditos los latidos de mi amante corazón
    sólo a ti te pertenecen por derecho, por amor
    lo que va de boca en boca no nos debe de importar
    si al Señor crucificaron qué podemos esperar

    Performer(s): Claude François



    Les nuits de ta vie
    Sont froides comme des bambous
    N'écoute donc pas les autres
    Oui sèche bien tes joues
    Ecoute le vent fou, qui dit...

    Rubis, comme je t'aime
    Le feu est dans la plaine, le rhum dans ma main
    Rubis, vois, comme je t'aime
    Le feu est dans la plaine, ta bague dans ma main

    Ils sont tous partis
    A d'autres rendez-vous
    Et toi tu pleures toute seule
    Comme une rue sans joie
    Fille écoute le vent fou, qui dit...

    Rubis, comme je t'aime
    Le feu est dans la plaine, le rhum dans ma main
    Oh, Rubis, vois, comme je t'aime
    Le feu est dans la plaine, ta bague dans ma main

    There Used To Be A Ball Park
    Composer(s): Joe Raposo
    Performer(s): Frank Sinatra



    And there used to be a ball park
    Where the field was warm and green
    And the people played their crazy game
    With a joy I'd never seen
    And the air was such a wonder
    From the hot dogs and the beer
    Yes, there used to be a ball park... right here

    And there used to be rock candy
    And a great big Fourth of July
    With the fireworks exploding
    All across the summer sky
    And the people watched in wonder
    How they laughed and how they'd cheer
    And there used to be a ball park... right here

    Now the children try to find it
    And they can't believe their eyes
    'Cause the old team just isn't playing
    And the new team hardly tries
    And the sky has got so cloudy
    When it used to be so clear
    And the summer went so quickly... this year

    Yes, there used to be a ball park... right here

    Conversation With The Devil
    Composer(s): Ray Wylie Hubbard
    Performer(s): Ray Wylie Hubbard



    I had a dream last night I was cast into Hell by a jealous God
    The Devil walked up and said you don't need no lightning rod
    It hardly ever rains down here I can't recall the last storm
    You aint gonna need that leather jacket it gets kinda warm
    There's one way in there's no way out looks like you're to stay
    The place is a mess, it's overcrowded, more are coming in everyday

    I said ah man, wait a minute there's gotta be something wrong
    I aint a bad guy just write these little songs
    I always pay my union dues don't stay in the passing lane
    And he said what about all that whiskey and the cocaine
    I said well yeah but that's no reason to throw me in Hell
    'Cause I didn't use the cocaine to get high, I just liked the way it smelled

    He said come on over here son, let me show you around
    Over there's where we put the preachers, I never liked those clowns
    They're always blaming me for everything wrong under the sun
    It aint harder to what's right, it's just maybe not as much fun
    Then the walk around thinking they're better than me and you
    Then they get caught in a motel room doing what they said not to do

    Now the murderers and the rapists they go in this firey lake
    As well as most of the politician and the cops on the take
    And all the mothers that wait to get to KMart to spank their kids
    Instead of showing what to do what's right, they just hit 'em for what they did
    And all the daddy's who run off and abandon their daughters and sons
    Oh anybody that hurts a child is gonna burn until it's done

    Everybody is down here I said who's up in Heaven with God and the Son
    Oh some saints and mystics and students of metaphysics 101
    People who care and share and love and try to do what's right
    Beautiful old souls who read a little stories to their babies every night
    What you wont find up in Heaven are Christian Coalition Right Wing Conservatives
    Country program directors and Nashville record executives

    Now I said I've made some mistakes, but I'm not as bad as those guys
    How can God to this to me or can't she sympathize
    He said you're wrong about God being cruel and mean
    Oh God is the most loving thing that's never been seen
    I said hotshot tell me this which religion is the truest
    He said there all about the same, Budda was not a Christian, but Jesus woulda made a good buddist

    Well I thought about my future I didn't seem to have much of one
    I looked around to leave but there was no place to run
    I said I don't suppose I could go back and try living again
    You know like reincarnation I hear that's the way it's always been
    I can't answer that he said you're gonna have to wait for that response
    But it's not any more unusual to be born twice than it is to be born once

    Well it looked like I was gonna be stuck here as far as I could tell
    I thought I might as well suck up you know what the hell
    I said you know that soung that Charlie Daniels did
    About how you went down to Georgia and played fiddle against that kid
    He said yeah it broke my heart but you know what are you gonna do
    I said to tell you the truth I thought your solo was the better of the two

    Well then I woke up and I was lying in my bed
    I went upstairs and kissed my little boy on his sleeping head
    I took this dream as a sign from God so I thought I'd better pray
    I said don't ever speak to me directly and thanks anyway
    Now so much has changed about me besides me just giving up red meat
    Some get spiritual cause they see the light and some cause they feel the heat

    and various other artists



    Mary, Peggy, Betty, Julie, rubias de New York
    cabecitas adoradas que vierten amor
    dan envidia a las estrellas, yo no se vivir sin ellas
    Mary, Peggy, Betty, Julie, de labios en flor
    Es como un cristal la risa loca de Julie
    es como el cantar de un manantial
    turba mi soñar el dulce hechizo de Peggy
    su mirar azul, hondo como el mar
    Deliciosas criaturas perfumadas
    quiero el beso de sus boquitas pintadas
    son ágiles muñecas del olvido y del placer
    rien su alegria como un cascabel

    Rubio cóctel que emborracha, así es Mary
    su melena que es de plata, quiero para mí
    si el amor que me ogrecía, solo dura un breve día
    tiene el fuego de una brasa, tu pasión, Peggy

    Es como un cristal la risa loca de Julie
    es como el cantar ...

    Una parola in più
    Basta un addio

    Non dirmi niente
    Hai detto già troppe parole
    Non dirmi niente
    Se tu non vuoi farmi del male

    Non devi parlare più
    Lo sai anche tu
    Non posso crederti
    Perché fra un attimo
    Tu te ne andrai

    Non dirmi niente
    Non dirmi niente
    É l'ultima volta che piango per te

    Amore, se tu puoi
    Non mi scordare mai
    Non mi scordare mai
    Non mi scordare mai

    Amore, se tu puoi

    (Traditional)
    Performer(s): Dock Boggs
    and multiple other artists



    What is this that I can see
    With icy hands taking hold on me
    I am death and none can excel
    I'll open the doors to heaven or hell

    Oh, death, oh, death, can't you spare me over till another year?
    Oh, death, oh, death, please spare me over till another year

    Oh, death, someone would pray
    Couldn’t you call some other day
    God's children prayed
    The preacher's preached
    The time of mercy is out of your reach

    I'll fix your feet so you can't walk
    I'll lock your jaws so you can't talk
    Close your eyes so you can 't see
    This very hour come go with me

    Death, I come to take the soul
    Leave the body and leave it cold
    To drop the flesh oft of the frame
    The earth and worms both have a claim

    Oh, death, oh, death, can't you spare me over till another year?
    Oh, death, oh, death, please spare me over till another year

    My mother come to my bed
    Place a cold towel upon my head
    My head is warm, my feet is cold
    Death is moving upon my soul

    Oh, death, how you treating me
    Close my eyes so I can't see
    You hurt my body
    You make me cold
    You're ruling my life right out of my soul

    Oh, death, oh, death, can't you spare me over till another year?
    Oh, death, oh, death, please spare me over till another year

    Oh, death, please consider my age
    Please don't take me at this stage
    My wealth is all at your command
    If you will move your icy hand

    The old, the young, the rich or poor
    Are all alike with me, you know
    No wealth, no land, no silver, no gold
    Nothing satisfies me but your soul

    Oh, death, oh, death, can't you spare me over till another year?
    Oh, death, oh, death, please spare me over till another year

    Reuben James
    Composer(s): Almanac Singers; Woody Guthrie
    Performer(s): The Kingston Trio



    Have you heard of the ship called "The Good Reuben James?"
    Armed by hard-fighting men both of honor and of fame
    She flew the Stars and Stripes of the land of the free
    But tonight she's in her grave at the bottom of the sea

    Chorus
    Oh, tell me what were their names?, tell me what were their names?
    Did you have a friend on The Good Reuben James?
    Oh, tell me what were their names?, tell me what were their names?
    Did you have a friend on The Good Reuben James?

    One hundred men went down to their dark and watery grave
    When that good ship went down, only forty-four were saved
    Was the last day of October, they saved forty-four
    From the dark, icy waters of that cold Iceland shore

    Chorus

    It was there in the dark of that cold and watery night
    They watched for the U-boat and they waited for a fight
    Then a whine and a rock and a great explosion's roar
    They laid the Reuben James on the cold ocean floor

    Chorus

    Many years have passed since those brave men are gone
    Those cold icy waters, they're still and they're calm
    Many years have passed and still I wonder why
    The worst of men must fight and the best of men must die

    Chorus

    T'en vas pas comme ça
    Sans me donner la moindre chance
    T'en vas pas comme ça
    En oubliant mon existence

    Tu ne peux pas me quitter
    Sans m'écouter
    Il n'y avait rien de vrai
    Dans tout ce que l'on t'a dit
    Je t'en supplie

    T'en vas pas comme ca
    A chaque instant chaque seconde
    Tu étais pour moi
    Le seul amour le seul au monde

    Pour toujours, je t'ai juré
    Fidelité
    Je ne t'ai jamais trahi
    Un seul jour de ma vie
    Je t'en supplie

    T'en vas pas comme ça, t'en vas pas comme ça
    Je ne peux plus exister sans toi
    Je sais que tu m'aimes encore
    Je suis sûr que tu m'aimes encore
    Je sais que tu m'aimes encore
    Je suis sûr que tu m'aimes encore

    A chaque instant chaque seconde
    Le seul amour le seul au monde

    Accepte-moi comme je suis
    Accepte-moi comme je suis...

    Reuben James
    Composer(s): Barry Etris; Alex Harvey
    Performer(s): Kenny Rogers



    Reuben James, in my song you live again
    And the phrases that I rhyme
    Are just the footsteps out of time
    From the time when I knew you Reuben James

    Reuben James all the folks around Madison County
    Cussed your name just a no
    Count share croppin colored man
    Who would steal anything he can
    And they always laid the blame on Reuben James

    Reuben James, you still walk furrowed fields on my mind
    The faded skirt the weathered brow
    The calloused hand up on the plow
    I loved you then and I love you now Reuben James
    Flora James, Reuben James

    Gray, a gossip of Madison County died with child
    And although your skin was black
    It was you that would not turn your back
    On a hungry white child with no name, Reuben James

    Reuben James, with your mind on my soul
    And the bible in your right hand
    You said turn the other cheek
    A better world is a waiting for the meek
    In my head those words remain from Reuben James

    Reuben James one dark cloudy day
    That brought you from the fields
    And to your lonely pine box came
    Just a preacher, me and the rain
    To sing one last refrain for Reuben James

    There she is, Miss America
    There she is, your ideal
    The dream of a million girls who are more than pretty can come true

    For she may turn out to be the Queen of femininity

    There she is, your ideal
    With so many beauties she took the town by storm
    With her all-American face and form

    Fairest of the fair, she is
    There she is - Miss America

    Ruben And Cherise
    Composer(s): Robert Hunter; Jerry Garcia
    Performer(s): Jerry Garcia



    Cherise was brushing her long hair gently down
    It was the afternoon of carnival as she brushes it gently down
    Rubin was strumming his painted mandolin
    It was inlaid with a pretty face in jade played in the carnival parade

    Cherise was dressing as Pirouette in white
    When a fatal vision gripped her tight Cherise beware tonight
    Rubin, Rubin tell me truly true
    I feel afraid and I don't know why I do, Is there another girl for you?

    If you could see my heart you would know it's true
    There's none Cherise, except for you, except for you
    I'd swear to it on my very soul, If I lie, say I fall down cold

    When Rubin played on his painted mandolin
    The breeze would pause to listen in before going on its way again
    Masquerade began when nightfall finally woke
    Like waves against the bandstand, dancers broke to the painted mandolin

    Looking out to the crowd who is standing there
    Sweet Ruby Claire at Rubin stared, at Rubin stared
    She was dressed as Pirouette in red
    And her hair hung gently down

    The crowd pressed round, Ruby stood as though alone
    Rubin's song took on a different tone and he played it just for her
    The song he played was the carnival parade
    Each note cut a thread of Cherise's fate it cut through like a blade

    Rubin was playing his painted mandolin
    When Ruby froze and turned to stone for the strings played all alone
    The voice of Cherise from the face of the mandolin
    Singing Rubin, Rubin tell me true for I have no one but you

    If you could see my heart you would know it true
    There's none Cherise, except for you, except for you
    I'd swear to it on my very soul
    If I lie, say I fall down cold

    The truth of love an unsung song must tell
    The course of love must follow blind without a look behind
    Rubin walked the streets of New Orleans till dawn
    Cherise so lightly in his arms and her hair hung gently down

    There She Goes Again
    Composer(s): Lou Reed
    Performer(s): The Velvet Underground & Nico - 1967
    Covered by multiple other artists



    There she goes again
    She’s out on the streets again
    She’s down on her knees, my friend
    But you know she’ll never ask you please again

    Now take a look, there’s no tears in her eyes
    She won’t take it from just any guy, what can you do
    You see her walkin’ on down the street
    Look at all your friends she’s gonna meet
    You better hit her

    There she goes again
    She’s knocked out on her feet again
    She’s down on her knees, my friend
    But you know she’ll never ask you please again

    Now take a look, there’s no tears in her eyes
    Like a bird, you know she would fly, what can you do
    You see her walkin’ on down the street
    Look at all your friends that she’s gonna meet
    You better hit her

    Now take a look, there’s no tears in her eyes
    Like a bird, you know she will fly, fly, fly away
    See her walking on down the street
    Look at all your friends that she’s gonna meet

    She’s gonna bawl and shout
    She’s gonna work it
    She’s gonna work it out, bye bye
    Bye bye baby
    All right

    Conversation Peace
    Composer(s): Stevie Wonder
    Performer(s): Stevie Wonder



    Staring right at 2000 AD
    As if mankind's atrocities to man has no history
    But just a glance at life in 2000 BC
    We find traces of man's inhumanity to man
    There's no mystery

    All for one, one for all
    There's no way we'll reach our greatest heights
    Unless we heed the call
    Me for you, you for me
    There's no chance of world salvation
    Less the conversation's peace

    We can't pause, watch and say "no" this can't be
    When there's a plan by any means to have
    Cleansing of one's ethnicity
    And we shouldn't act as if we don't hear nor see
    Like the holocaust of six million Jews and
    A hundred and fifty million blacks during slavery

    All for one, one for all
    There's no way we'll reach our greatest heights
    Unless we heed the call
    Me for you, you for me
    There's no chance of world salvation
    Less the conversation's peace

    When publicly or privately convened
    May love, positivity and life's preservation
    be the basic theme
    And should you put your trust in some
    prophet in life
    Give him trust but your faith must stay
    with the one
    Who gave the ultimate sacrifice for...

    All for one, one for all
    There's no way we'll reach our greatest heights
    Unless we heed the call
    Me for you, you for me
    There's no chance of world salvation
    Less the conversation's peace
    Less the conversation's peace

    Stop (Stop), look and listen baby that's my philosophy (Yes it is now)
    It's called rubberneckin' baby, but that's all right with me

    Stop (Stop), look and listen baby, that's my philosophy (Yes it is now)
    It's called rubberneckin' baby, but that's all right with me

    Some people say I'm wastin' time, but they don't really know
    I like what I see, I see what I like, and it gives me such a glow, hey-yeah-yeah

    First thing in the morning, last thing at night
    I look, stare everywhere, and I see everything in sight, hey-hey-hey

    Stop (Stop), look and listen baby, that's my philosophy (Yes it is now)
    It's called rubberneckin' baby, but that's all right with me (It's alright)

    People say I'm wasting time, yeh, but they don't really know
    I see what I like, I like what see, and it gives me such a glow-oh-oh-oh

    Sittin' on the back porch all by myself
    Along came Mary Jane, I'm with somebody else, hey-hey-hey

    Stop (Stop), look and listen (And listen) baby, that's my philosophy (Yes it is now)
    It's called rubberneckin' baby, but that's all right with me, yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah

    Hey-hey-hey-hey, baby, that's all right with me, yeah-yeah-yeah
    Rubberneckin' baby, but that's all right with me, yeah -yeah-yeah.........

    Performer(s): Carl Smith
    and multiple other artists



    There she goes, she's walkin' away
    Each step she takes brings heartaches my way
    He's won her heart, I lost her some way
    There she goes, she's walkin' away

    If I hadn't cheated, if I hadn't lied
    I'd be the one who's walkin' by her side
    I love her still and I guess that it shows
    She's walkin' away, there she goes

    There she goes! She's walkin' away
    Each step she takes brings heartaches my way

    If I hadn't cheated, if I hadn't lied
    I'd be the one who's walkin' by her side (by her side)
    I love her still and I guess that it shows
    She's walkin' away, there she goes
    There she goes
    There she goes
    There she goes

    Contre Vents Et Marées
    ((Adapted from: Theme From A Movie That Never Happened (Eric Clapton) - 1998))
    Composer(s): Eric Clapton - Francoise Hardy
    Performer(s): Françoise Hardy - 2000



    Contre vents et marées
    Oublie les apparances
    Le silence
    N'est jamais immobile
    Toute attente a un sens
    Aie confiance
    Imagine
    Les forces en présence
    Continue ton effort
    Pense au but, cherche encore
    Le monde et toi
    Êtes sommis à des Lois
    Songes-y quelquefois...
    Avant que tu t'élances
    Que tu danses
    Que tu coures sur ton fil
    Que tes belles évidences
    Ta violence
    Tombent en ruines
    Bien des deuils t'attendent...
    Tu dois juste avancer
    Regarder sans tricher
    La vérité
    Suivre ta route
    Coûte que coûte
    Contre vents et marees
    Si nul n'echappe à ces orages
    Qui balayent au passage
    Les repères
    Qui éteignent la lumière..
    Dans la nuit noire
    Tôt ou tard
    Va briller un espoir
    Et germer ta victoire...
    Arme-toi de patience
    La souffrance
    N'est jamais inutile
    Elle élève en silence
    Tisse les fils
    Invisible
    D'une autre naissance
    Vois la mer qui se calme
    Le soleil dans les arbres
    Sèche tes larmes
    Sois vivant, reste vrai
    Contre vents et marées
