Trying To Love Two Women
Composer(s): Sonny Throckmorton
Performer(s): The Oak Ridge Boys



Trying to love two women is like a ball and chain
Trying to love two women is like a ball and chain
Sometimes the pleasure ain't worth the strain
It's a long old grind, and it tires your mind

Trying to hold two women is tearing me apart
Trying to hold two women is tearing me apart
One's got my money, the other's got my heart
It's a long old grind, and it tires your mind

When you try to please two women, you can't please yourself
When you try to please two women, you can't please yourself
At best it's only half good; a man can't stock two shelves
It's a long old grind, and it tires your mind 

Old Man Atom (aka Talking Atomic Blues)
Composer(s): Vern Partlow; Irving Bibo
Performer(s): Sons of The Pioneers; The Weavers



Hiroshima, Nagasaki, Alamogordo, Bikini

I'm gonna preach you all a sermon
About Old Man Atom, that's me
I don't mean the Adam in the Bible datum
I don't mean the Adam that Mother Eve elated

I mean that thing that science liberated
The thing that Einstein says he's scared of
And when Einstein's scared
Brother, you'd better be scared

If you're scared of the atom, here's what's you gotta do
You gotta gather all the people in the world with you
'Cause if you don't get together and do it
Well, first thing you know I'm gonna blow this world plum too

Hiroshima, Nagasaki, Alamogordo, Bikini

Now life used to be such a simple joy
My cyclotron was just a super toy
And folks got born, they'd work and marry
And "atom" was a word in the dictionary
And then it happened

The science boys, from every clime
They all pitched in with overtime
And before they knew it
The thing was done

And they'd hitched up the power of the Golden Sun
And put a harness on Old Sol
Splittin' atoms
While the diplomats was splittin' hairs

Hiroshima, Nagasaki, Alamogordo, Bikini

But the atom's here in spite of hysteria
Flourishes in Utah as well as Siberia
And whether you're a black, white, red or brown
The question is this, when you boil it down
To be or not to be, that's the question

The answer to it all ain't military datum
Like who gets there firstest with the mostest atoms
No, the people of the world must decide their fate
They gotta get together or disintegrate

I hold this truth to be self-evident
That all men may be cremated equal

Hiroshima, Nagasaki, Alamogordo, Bikini

Yes, it's up to the people
'Cause the atoms don't care
You can't fence me in, I'm just like air
I don't give a hoot about any politics
Or who got what into whichever fix

All I want to do is sit around
And have my nucleus bombarded by neutrons

Now the moral is this, just as plain as day
That Old Man Atom is here to stay
I'm gonna stick around and that's for true
But, ah, my dearly beloved, are you?

So listen folks, here is my thesis
Peace in the world or the world in pieces

Hiroshima, Nagasaki, Alamogordo, Bikini

Ein Kleines Glück
((French Version: Petit Bonheur (Salvatore Adamo))
Composer(s): Salvatore Adamo
Performer(s): Salvatore Adamo



Wababababa...

Du und ich das wäre schön
sagte mir dein allererster Blick bereits
dir und mir war klar das war
echte Liebe deiner- und auch meinerseits
aber meine Kleine eins bringt mich fast um
ich finde dieses Lied das Eine
das du gern singst ein bißchen dumm

Ein kleines Glück wird einmal groß
wenn du nur warten kannst dann fällt es auch in deinen Schoß
ist Liebe da nur eine Spur
mit jedem Tag mit jedem Schwur wird sie doch größer nur

Herz an Herz und Hand in Hand
fliegen nur die Jahre so dahin im Nu
du wirst seh’n im Handumdreh’n
gehen wir gemeinsam auf die Hundert zu
aber meine Kleine dann bringt eins mich um
wenn du, du weißt schon was ich meine
noch immer singst schon alt und krumm

Ein kleines Glück wir einmal groß
wenn du nur warten kannst dann fällt es auch in deinen Schoß
ist Liebe da nur eine Spur
mit jedem Tag mit jedem Schwur wird sie doch größer nur

Tryin' To Get The Feeling Again
Composer(s): David Pomeranz
Performer(s): Barry Manilow



Doctor, my woman is comin' back home late today 
Could you maybe give me something? 
'Cause the feeling is gone and I must get it back right away 
Before she sees that 
I've been up, down, trying to get the feeling again 
All around, trying to get the feeling again 
The one that made me shiver 
Made my knees start to quiver 
Every time she walked in 

And I've looked high (high), low (low) 
Everywhere I possibly can (high) 
But there's no (no) trying to get the feeling again 
It seemed to disappear as fast as it came 

Where did it run to?  
I thought I'd done all that I could 
Just to keep the love light burning 
But whatever I've done, guess I just haven't done it too good 
'Cause all that's left is 
I've been up, down, trying to get the feeling again 
All around, trying to get the feeling again 
The one that made me shiver, made my knees start to quiver 
Every time she walked in 
And I've looked high (high) and low (low) 
And everywhere I possibly can (high) 
But there's no (no) trying to get the feeling again 
It seemed to disappear as fast as it came 

And I've been lookin', I've been lookin', I've been lookin' 
I've been up (up), I've been down (down), and trying to get the feeling 
I've been up (up), I've been down (down), I've been trying to get 
I've tried and I've tried and I've tried to get (up) the feeling (down) 
I've been trying to get the feeling again 
I want to get that feeling 
I want to get that feeling
I've got to get that feeling 
I've got to get that feeling again (up) 
And again (down) and again (trying to get that feeling) 
Trying to get (up) the feeling (down) 
I've been trying to get the feeling again!!!

(I want everybody to get up off your seat) 
(And get your arms together, and your hands together) 
(And give me some of that o-o-old soul clapping) 

You didn't have to love me like you did 
But you did, but you did 
And I thank you

You didn't have to squeeze me like you did 
But you did, but you did 
And I thank you

If you took your love to somewhere else 
I wouldn't know what it meant to be loved to death 
You made me feel like I've never felt 
Kisses so good I had to holler for help 

You didn't have to squeeze me but you did 
But you did but you did 
And I thank you

You didn't have to hold me but you did 
But you did but you did 
And I thank you 

Every day was something new
You pull out your bag and your fine to-do 
You got me trying new things too 
Just so I can keep up with you

You didn't have to shake me like you did 
But you did but you did 
And I thank you

You didn't have to make it like you did 
But you did but you did 
And I thank you 

All my life I've been shortchanged 
Without your love baby, it's a crying shame 
And now I know what the fellas are talking about 
When they say that they been turned out 

I want to thank you (thank you) 
Thank you (oh, baby) 
Thank you baby (yeah, yeah) 
Oh baby (I gotta be thanking) 
Got to say 

You didn't have to love me like you did 
But you did, but you did 
(And I thank you) 

You didn't have to hold me like you did 
But you did, but you did
(And I thank you) 

Thank you (thank you, baby) 
Baby (Got to thank you) 
Baby (oh, baby) 
Thank! I've! Got! I've got to (thank you baby) 
Thank you baby (oh baby) ...

Ein Kleiner Mann In Einer Flasche
Composer(s): Billy Meshel - Curl List
Performer(s): Agnetha Fältskog



Jede Frau sucht einen Mann
Dem sie alles sagen kann
Der nicht widerspricht und niemals schimpft
So ein Exemplar, das weiss ich
Gibt es auf der ganze Welt nicht
Deshalb habe ich jetzt ein komische Idee

Ein kleiner Mann in einer Flasche
Ist 'ne völlig neue Masche
D'rum verstecke ihn an einem guten Ort
Ein kleiner Mann in einer Flasche
Ist 'ne völlig neue Masche
D'rum pass auf, sonst nimmt ihn dir noch jemand fort

Füllst du dich allein und einsam
Weil kein Mensch bei dir vorbei kam
Sei nicht traurig, das geht schnell vorbei
Hol' aus deine Reisetasche
Die versteckte grüne Flasche
Mach sie auf und plötzlich kannst du wieder glücklich sein

Ein kleiner Mann in einer Flasche
Ist 'ne völlig neue Masche
D'rum verstecke ihn an einem guten Ort
Ein kleiner Mann in einer Flasche
Ist 'ne völlig neue Masche
D'rum pass auf, sonst nimmt ihn dir noch jemand fort

Ein kleiner Mann in einer Flasche
Ist 'ne völlig neue Masche
D'rum verstecke ihn an einem guten Ort
Ein kleiner Mann in einer Flasche
Ist 'ne völlig neue Masche
D'rum pass auf, sonst nimmt ihn dir noch jemand fort

Trying So Hard To Forget
Composer(s): Peter Green - Adams
Performer(s): Peter Green & Duster Bennett



You know life can be so sad
Sometimes you just sit right down and cry
You know life can be so sad
Sometimes you just sit right down, and you cry

Sometimes your luck it gets so bad
Maybe you'd be better off if you should die
Yes I've tried so hard not to remember
And people I've tried so hard to forget
I've tried so hard not to remember
And people I've tried so hard to forget

But I can't stop my mind wandering
Back to the days I was just a down trodden kid
Some folks have such a good life
You know they just get on that big train, and you ride
You know some folks have such a good life
They just get on that big train, and you ride

I would spend most of my days
Running and hiding from the world outside
If I ever get to heaven 
You know, that sure would ease my worried mind
Yes, if I ever get to heaven
That sure would ease my worried life
You know when I find that place in the sky
People I'm gonna leave this old world behind

I Thank You
Composer(s): Fred Ebb; John Kander
Performer(s): Liza Minnelli



Ladies and gentlemen, I must tell you something
My life looks very beautiful to me right now
And in – thank you for sharing it with me
And in front of you, I would like to thank the man who brought me into it

If it wasn’t for you
There wouldn’t be me
I thank you

You taught me to be
The best I could be
I thank you

There wasn’t a day we spent together
That you didn’t make me smile
You gave me my strength
You gave me my hope
You gave me my style

So isn’t it time
I stopped and I said
I thank you

For all of the dreams
Inside of my head
I thank you
Thank you

This world is a wonderful place
This world you taught me to see
So blessings dear friend
If it wasn’t for you
There wouldn’t be me

I thank you
Thank you

This world is a magical place
This world you opened for me
So blessings dear man
If it wasn’t for you
There wouldn’t be me

Ein Bild Kann Nicht Lachen So Wie Du
Composer(s): M. Holm - Peter Maffay
Performer(s): Peter Maffay



Wie eine Festung ist dein Haus
und ich klopf' an deine Tür
Mach auf! Alle Fenster sind ohne Leben

und ich fühl' es
du wohnst nicht mehr hier

In Gedanken geh' ich heim
Und ich spür bei jedem Schritt Einsamkeit
Oh
deine Bilder in meinem Zimmer
sind wie Träume einer schönen Zeit

Doch ein Bild kann nicht lachen so wie du
Ja
und ein Bild kann nicht zärtlich weinen so wie du
Oh nein
ein Bild kann nicht zärtlich sein

es kann mich nicht verstehn 
und ich muß meinen Weg alleine gehn

Tausend Straßen tausendmal
wenn man liebt
was bedeutet dann eine Zahl
Ich muß dich suchen
solang' ich lebe
und dein Bild trag ich bei mir überall
Doch ein Bild kann nicht lachen so wie du

Trying

I'm tryin' to forget you, but try as I may
You're still my every thought, Dear, every day
No use tryin' to forget you 'cause I realise
That I'm trying to forget you with tears in my eyes

And those teardrops only remind me
That I love you more and more
So, I'll put my foolish pride behind me
And go knockin', knockin' at your door

And I'll be tryin' to impress you
Hopin' to possess you
Now I know I haven't a chance, Dear, there's no denyin'
But you can't blame a fellow for tryin'

And those teardrops only remind me
That I love you more and more
So, I'll put my foolish pride behind me
And go knockin', knockin' at your door

And I'll be tryin' to impress you
Hopin' to possess you
Now I know I haven't a chance, Dear, there's no denyin'
But you can't blame a fellow for tryin'

I Thank The Moon
Composer(s): Billy Dawn Smith
Performer(s): The Crests; The Arrogants; Johnny Maestro



Yes it's true when they say that when the moon is high 
It casts a magic light on lovers
I fell in love with you on a perfect night in June
And darling I thank the moon

While we walked through the park the moon was in a cloud
I wanted to cry out loud I love you
Just then the moon appeared and two hearts began to spoon 
And darling I thank the moon

Remember I was afraid and shy to tell what was in my heart
Then the moon seemed to say you're in love
We kissed and gave love its start
It's true when they say that when the moon's in sight
It casts a magic light on lovers

It made you love me too on a perfect night in June 
And darling I thank the moon
I thank the moon

Eignteen yellow roses came today 
Eighteen yellow roses in a pretty bouquet 
When the boy came to the door 
I didn't know what to say 
But eighteen yellow roses came today 
I opened up the card to see what it said 
I couldn't believe my eyes 
When I had read 
Though you belong to another I love you anyway 
Yes eighteen yellow roses came today 

I never doubted your love for a minute 
I always thought that you would be true 
But now this box and the flowers in it 
I guess there's nothin' left for me to do 
But ask to meet the boy that's done this thing 
And find out if he's got plans to buy you a ring 
'Cause eighteen yellow roses will wilt and die one day 
But a father's love will never fade away 
Will never fade away

Tryin' To Love Two
Composer(s): William Bell
Performer(s): William Bell



Tryin` to love two
Ain`t easy to do
When you`re trying to love two
Sure ain`t easy to do

I`ve got a woman at home
That`s sweet as can be
A woman on the outside
Crazy about me
I`m caught in the middle
Of a three-way love affair
Caught up in this triangle
Can`t go nowhere

Tryin` to love two
Ain`t easy to do
When you`re trying to love two
Sure ain`t easy to do

I need to be three men in one
To get my job done
I need a 30-hour day
Two jobs with double pay
I need a man to go to work
A man to stay at home
I need a man on the outside
To keep my woman...

I Tell It Like It Used To Be
Composer(s): Michael Garvin; Ron Hellard; Bucky Jones
Performer(s): T. Graham Brown; Joe Dolan



They say that I'm the kind of person who always speaks my mind

I wish that I was stronger I could tell them that you've gone
To me there's nothing stronger then the truth
But that's one thing that I may never do
You can ask me almost anything and I'll tell you like it is
If they want to hear about our love and how it all went wrong
But darlin' when they ask me about you
Then darlin' they will just have to talk to you

I tell it like it used to be
When you were still in love with me
Before you got to used to me and wanted someone new
I tell it like it ought to be 'cause how it is is killing me 
When they ask about you and me
I tell it like it used to be

(Do, do, do, do, do, do-do-do-do)

(Do-do-do-do...)

Got my finger on the trigger, I'm gonna pull it
I'm picked to click now
I'm a son-of-a-gun

So hold it right there little girl, little girl
We're gonna have big fun

I may be an oldie, but I'm a goodie, too
I'll last forever and I'll be good to you
Oh, yes I will

(Do, do, do, do, do...)

I'm eighteen with a bullet
Got my finger on the trigger, I'm gonna pull it
I'm a super-soul sure-shot, yeah
I'm a national breakout
So let me check your playlist, mama
Huh, c'mon let's make out

I'm high on the chart
I'm tip for the top
But till I'm in your heart
I ain't never gonna stop
Never, never baby

We got a smash double-header
If we only stay together
Talkin' 'bout you
Talkin' 'bout me

(Do, do, do, do, do...)

I'm eighteen with a bullet
Got my finger on the trigger, I'm gonna pull it
Yes I will
Be my A-side, baby, be beside me
Right now, right now I'm a single
But pretty soon you'll see
We'll have a hit first time
And won't be long we'll find
That we're raising a whole L.P.
Woo-hoo

You know I'm eighteen, woo-hoo, with a bullet
Yes I am, baby
I got my finger right there on the trigger
I'm gonna pull it, pull it, pull it
You better start makin' plans, baby
This old house is too small, now, now, now
I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I
I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I

Tryggare Kan Ingen Vara
Composer(s): Lina Sandell-Berg - Oskar Ahnfelt



Tryggare kan ingen vara 
än Guds lilla barnaskara
stjärnan ej på himlafästet
fågeln ej i kända nästet

Herren sina trogna vårdar 
uti Sions helga gårdar
över dem han sig förbarmar
bär dem uppå fadersarmar

Ingen nöd och ingen lycka 
skall utur hans hand dem rycka 
Han, vår vän för andra vänner 
sina barns bekymmer känner

Gläd dig då, du lilla skara
Jakobs Gud skall dig bevara 
För hans vilja måste alla 
fiender till jorden falla 

Vad han tar och vad han giver
samme Fader han dock bliver
och hans mål är blott det ena 
barnens sanna väl allena

I Taut I Taw A Puddy Tat

and multiple other artists



Tweety:
I am a little, tiny, bird 
My name is Tweety Pie
I live inside my bird cage, a-hanging way up high
I like to swing upon my perch and sing my little song
But there's a tat that's after me and won't let me alone

I taut I taw a puddy tat a creepin' up on me
I did! I taw a puddy tat as plain as he could be!

Sylvester:
I am that great big bad old cat, Sylvester is my name
I only have one aim in life and that is very plain
I want to catch that little bird and eat him right away
But just as I get close to him, this is what he'll say

I taut I taw a puddy tat a creepin' up on me
You bet he taw a puddy tat, that puddy tat is me!

Tweety:
That puddy tat is very bad, he sneaks up from behind
I don't think I would like it if I knew what's on his mind
I have a strong suspicion that his plans for me aren't good
I am inclined to think that he would eat me if he could

Sylvester:
I'd like to eat that sweetie pie when he leaves his cage
But I can never catch him, It throws me in a rage
You bet I'd eat that little bird if I could just get near
But every time that I approach, this is all I hear

Tweety:
I taut I taw a puddy tat a creepin' up on me
I did! I taw a puddy tat as plain as he could be!

And when I sing that little song, my mistress knows he's back
She grabs her broom and brings it down upon Sylvester's back
So listen you bad puddy tat, let's both be friends and see
My mistress will not chase you if you sing this song with me

Tweety: Come on now, like a good cat
Sylvester: Oh, all right
Sufferin' Succotash!

Both:
I taut I taw a puddy tat a creepin' up on me
I did! I taw a puddy tat as plain as he could be!

Eight More Miles To Louisville
Composer(s): Grandpa Jones - Louis Jones
First release: Grandpa Jones - 1946
Covered by multiple other artists



I've traveled o'er this country wide seeking fortune fair
Up and down the two coast lines I've traveled everywhere
From Portland East to Portland West back along the line
I'm going now to the place that's best that old hometown of mine

Eight more miles and Louisville will come into my view
Eight more miles on this old road and I'll never more be blue
I knew some day that I'd come back I knew it from the start
Eight more miles to Louisville the hometown of my heart

There's bound to be a gal somewhere that you like best of all
Mine lives down in Louisville she's long and she is tall
But she's the kind that you can't find a traveling through the land
I'm on my way this very day to win her heart and hand

Now I can picture in my mind a place we'll call our home
A humble little hut for two we'll never want to roam
The place that's right for that love sight is in those bluegrass hills
Where gently flows the Ohio by a place called Louisville

Try Too Hard
Composer(s): Dave Clark - Mike Smith
First release: The Dave Clark Five - 1966



Tell me, do you want my love
Tell me what you're thinkin' of
I've been waitin' 'round so long
You don't try too hard

I hope you're not tryin' to make a fool of me
'Cause if you are I know there's going to be
Some tears fallin' and they won't be mine
You don't try too hard
You don't try too hard

Some people may want many loves my friend
But we both know what happens to them in the end
So please listen to these words of mine
And let me know that I'm not wasting my time
I'm sure that we could get along very fine
You don't try too hard
You don't try too hard

You don't try too hard
You don't try too hard
You don't try too hard
You don't try too hard

I Talk To The Wind
Composer(s): Ian McDonald; Peter Sinfield
Performer(s): King Crimson
and multiple other artists



Said the straight man to the late man
Where have you been
I've been here and I've been there
And I've been in between

I talk to the wind
My words are all carried away
I talk to the wind
The wind does not hear
The wind cannot hear

I'm on the outside looking inside
What do I see
Much confusion, disillusion
All around me

You don't possess me
Don't impress me
Just upset my mind
Can't instruct me or conduct me
Just use up my time

I talk to the wind
My words are all carried away
I talk to the wind
The wind does not hear
The wind cannot hear
