Si J'avais Des Millions (Adapted from: If I Were A Rich Man - 1964) Composer(s): Jerry Bock; Sheldon M. Harnick; Charles Aznavour Performer(s): Dalida - 1968
Si j'avais des millions Tchiribiribiribiribiribiriboum Tout le jour à Bidibidiboum Ah! si j'étais cousu d'or
Je travaillerais moins fort Tchiribiribiribiribiribiriboum Si j'avais quelques mini-millions Tchiribiribiribiriboum
Je bâtirais en pleine ville une maison haute Avec des chambres sans compter Avec un toit de tuiles et des vrais parquets Un escalier fait pour monter L'autre pour descendre un troisième encore Rien que pour agrémenter le décor
Je me vois d'ici très à l'aise en femme de riche Essayant de tendre le cou Relevant un menton qu'empèse, un poids de bijoux Goûtant les plats surveillant tout Houspillant les bonnes Fière comme un paon Dirigeant la maison tambour battant Ha!
Si j'avais des millions Tchiribiribiribiribiribiriboum Tout le jour à Bidibidiboum Ah si j'étais cousu d'or
Aïe! Aïe! Aïe!
Je travaillerais moins fort Tchiribiribiribiribiribiriboum Dieu Puissant toi qui es éternel Tu pourrais faire un petit effort Ça changerait quoi du haut du ciel Qu'enfin je sois cousu d'or
We Need A Little Christmas
Composer(s): Jerry Herman
Performer(s): Julius LaRosa - 1966
Haul out the holly Put up the tree before my spirit falls again Fill up the stocking I may be rushing things, but deck the halls again now For we need a little Christmas Right this very minute Candles in the window Carols at the spinet
Yes, we need a little Christmas Right this very minute It hasn't snowed a single flurry But Santa, dear, we're in a hurry!
So climb down the chimney Turn on the brightest string of light I've ever seen Slice up the fruitcake It's time we hung some tinsel on that evergreen bough
For I've grown a little leaner Grown a little colder Grown a little sadder Grown a little older And I need a little angel Sitting on my shoulder Need a little Christmas now!
For we need a little music Need a little laughter Need a little singing Ringing through the rafter And we need a little snappy "Happy ever after" Need a little Christmas now!
Wish I Was In Nashville Composer(s): Bob McDill Performer(s): Don Williams; Mel McDaniel
I went to see my honeydew, she lived just down the way I got stuck and the truck froze up and I only got half way Sittin here on the muddy road, stuck here all alone The rain wont stop its a beatin on the top and I should have stayed at home
I wish I was in Nashville, guitar on my back Maybe someday I will ride in the back of a big Cadillac
Must have been a half a day, before I got back home The roads all mud the creeks gonna flood and Im here all alone Sure feels good a gettin back to my old shack again But Im all soaked and the radios broke and the rain keeps pouring in.
I wish I was in Nashville, guitar on my back Maybe someday I will ride in the back of a big Cadillac
I wish I was in Nashville, guitar on my back Maybe someday I will ride in the back of a big Cadillac
We Are The Shepherds Composer(s): John R. Cash Performer(s): Johnny Cash
So here is the stable and there is the manger The new Saviour sleeps on his first earthly night The wise men brought riches, but we brought a candle It's all that we have but it gives a good light
We are the shepherds, we walked cross the mountains We left our flocks when the new star appeared Oh, the beautiful singing of heavenly choir We had to come see him, we had to come here
We beg you forgive us for such a small offering But our sheep are out there with wolves in the night We bring you this candle it's all we have with us But with it the new Saviour has his first light
We are the shepherds, we walked cross the mountains We left our flocks when the new star appeared Oh, the beautiful singing of heavenly choir We had to come see him, we had to come here
We thank thee kind Joseph for bidding us enter Please take our gift for the new babe of thine 'Tis only one candle but it is our symbol Of how we believe that his great life will shine
We are the shepherds, we walked cross the mountains We left our flocks when the new star appeared Oh, the beautiful singing of heavenly choir We had to come see him, we had to come here
Si jamais en un jour de cafard Il te prenait soudain l'envie de me revoir Si jamais le regret te prend la main Suis-le n'hésite pas s'il te conduit vers moi
Moi j'oublierais Le mal que tu m'as fait Je me tairais Pourvu que tu reviennes
Si jamais Si jamais Tu pouvais comprendre Si jamais Que je reste à t'attendre Si jamais Viens-tu serais ma reine
Si dans le souvenir de mes caresses Tu trouvais la tendresse qui te manque aujourd'hui N'oublie pas qu'au bout d'une rue déserte Ma porte te reste ouverte viens chasser mon ennuie
Moi j'oublierais Le mal que tu m'as fait Je me tairais Pourvu que tu reviennes
Si jamais Si jamais Tu pouvais comprendre Si jamais Que je reste à t'attendre Si jamais Viens-tu serais ma reine
Si jamais Si jamais La, la, la, la, la Si jamais Si jamais La, la, la, la, la
Woman You Should Be In Movies Composer(s): Buddy Cannon Performer(s): Don Williams
You said I was all you ever needed It was me that kept your spirits high Well you're the only one who ever fooled me You broke my heart without me knowin' why
Woman you should be in movies Actin' out some all important parts Woman you should be in movies Instead of breakin' real people's hearts
Love felt so alive when I was with you Inside me you made a place feel warm But you should win a prize for where you put me 'Cause it appears another loser's born
Woman you should be in movies Actin' out some all important parts Woman you should be in movies Instead of breakin' real people's hearts
The Way In A Manger Composer(s): Paul Brandt Performer(s): Paul Brandt
We were alone in the fields with our sheep A star in the sky glowing bright in the east When an angelic choir singin' "All glory be To God in the highest", bade us come see
They said, the way in a manger is a babe fast asleep He's never a stranger to wise men who seek The light and the hope for all of mankind He's the way in the manger and He's easy to find
Mary and Joseph were there when we came And all that the angels had said was the same And when I saw the baby I knew just what to do I bowed down to worship the light and the truth
The way in a manger is a babe fast asleep He's never a stranger to wise men who seek The light and the hope for all of mankind He's the way in the manger and He's easy to find
The light and the hope for all of mankind He's the way in a manger and He's easy to find
Dicen mis amigos que de ti no me he de fiar Eres caprichosa y tu amor no durará Me dicen que soy tonto porque creo en tu querer Más no le hago caso y tu cariño he de tener Me conformaré que después me dejes tú Mira, si ha de ser así Si yo sufro por tu culpa y me duele el corazón Yo tendré mi recompensa en los momentos de ilusión Y si algún día me abandonas de mis sueños escribiré Con mis recuerdos Más que yo soy tuyo para siempre, acaso sepas comprender Porque yo te necesito y tu cariño he de tener Me conformaré que después me dejes tú ¡Ay! mira, si ha de ser así Si yo sufro por tu culpa y me duele el corazón Yo tendré mi recompensa en los momentos de ilusión Y si algún día me abandonas de mis sueños viviré Con mis recuerdos Más que yo soy tuyo para siempre, acaso sepas comprender Porque yo te necesito y tu cariño he de tener Me conformaré que después me dejes tú ¡Ay! mira, si ha de ser así Me conformaré que después me dejes tú ¡Ay! mira, si ha de ser así
Show Me That You Care Composer(s): Gerry Marsden Performer(s): Gerry & The Pacemakers
Please, please be mine all of the time And try to show me that you care I, I'll be true, true just to you As long as you show me that you care I'll make you happy in my arms But you must shower me with charms Day after day, I'll love you, come what may As long as you show me that you care I'll make you happy in my arms But you must shower me with charms Day after day, I'll love you, come what may As long as you show me that you care As long as you show me that you care
Si Grande Est La Terre (Adapted from: Away In A Manger - 1959) Composer(s): James Murray; John McFarland; Sacha Distel; M. Tézé Performer(s): Sacha Distel
Si grande est la terre et nous si petits Comment va-t-il faire pour venir ici Lorsque vient décembre, le toit de son ciel Lorsque vient décembre, le bon Père Noël
J'ai mis dans la lettre que j'ai envoyée J'ai mis l'autre adresse trois fois soulignée J'ai mis une étoile sur notre sapin Et puis sur la table un morceau de pain
Oui mais décembre, les toits sont pareils Et les rues se ressemblent, les lettres se perdent Si grande est la terre et nous si petits Si grande est la terre et nous si petits
Si grande est la terre et nous si petits Que je désespère qu'il vienne jusqu'ici Oui mais quand il voyage, on m'a dit qu'il sait Où les enfants sages mettent leurs souliers Où les enfants sages mettent leurs souliers
You've Still Got A Place In My Heart Composer(s): Leon Payne Performer(s): Leon Payne
and multiple other artists
If the one you'd think is true ever turns his back on you You've still got a place in my heart If every road you take proves you made a big mistake Baby, you've still got a place in my heart.
If I'm a fool to pray that you'll return some day Well then I'll know of million fools that love has made that way If the years should make you cry don't go on and live a lie Baby, you've still got a place in my heart If the years should make you cry don't go on and live a lie Baby, you've still got a place in my heart...
Show Don't Tell Composer(s): Geddy Lee; Alex Lifeson; Neil Peart Performer(s): Rush
How many times do you hear it? It goes on all day long Everyone knows everything And no one's ever wrong Until later...
Who can you believe? It's hard to play it safe But apart from a few good friends We don't take anything on faith Until later...
Show...don't tell...
(Show me, don't tell me) You've figured out the score (Show me, don't tell me) I've heard it all before (Show me, don't tell me) I don't care what you say (Show me, don't tell me)
You can twist perceptions Reality won't budge You can raise objections I will be the judge And the jury
I'll give it due reflection Watching from the fence Give the jury direction Based on the evidence I, the jury
(Show me, don't tell me) Hey, order in the court (Show me, don't tell me) Let's try to keep it short (Show me, don't tell me) Enough of your demands (Show me, don't tell me) Witness take the stand (Show me, don't tell me)

Si Estas Enamorada, Aleluya Composer(s): A. Cortez Performer(s): Raphael
Me parece que tú has ingresado A la escuela obligada de la vida La noche estaba fría y no te has tapado Y hay un libro de versos en tu mesilla Me parece que tú has ingresado Has descubierto ya que hay una espina Que cruza el corazón de lado a lado Y hieres sin dejar ninguna herida Si estás enamorada, aleluya Si estás enamorada Si estás enamorada, aleluya Si estás enamorada Me parece que tú has ingresado En la escuela más linda que hay en la vida A pesar de tus breves quince años Hay una nueva luz en tus pupilas Tu niñez de repente se ha quedado En el último juego detenida Hoy de forma distinta te has peinado Y has cambiado el color de tus mejillas
Voice Of An Angel Composer(s): Ron Dante; Kyle Vincent Performer(s): Knockout
Snow is falling Quietly at my door The Christmas songs they're singing Sound different than before He don't come around here anymore
He'd speak softly And whisper in my ear "There's no need to worry I always will be here"
But he flew away with the autumn leaves Said he didn't have a choice And I miss the voice of an angel
Voice of an angel Voice of an angel Voice of an angel Sing Santa give me one wish Put him on my list Bring back my angel to me
The winter silence echoes Only his sweet melody And I still remember How we'd sing on Christmas Eve
I'll always love him I have no choice 'Cause he has the voice of an angel
Voice of an angel Voice of an angel Voice of an angel Sing Santa give me one wish Put him on my list Bring back my angel to me
Suddenly I hear a sound That fills me with joy Could it be the voice? I miss that voice Yes I need the voice of my angel
Voice of an angel Voice of an angel Voice of an angel Sing Santa give me one wish Put him on my list Brought back my angel, my Christmas angel Brought back my angel to me
Si El Amor Existe Composer(s): Cachorro López; Miguel Mateos Performer(s): Miguel Mateos
Enchufado al cielo estoy en 220 y a color puedo volar en tu aire sicodélico como un vivo a tu pollera No, no te voy a perder
Oh, oh, oh!, Si el amor existe Dulce sensación, total satisfacción si el amor existe esto debe ser amor Oh, oh, oh!, Si el amor existe relájalo, disfrútalo si el amor existe esto debe ser amor
