Way Out There
Composer(s): Bob Nolan
Performer(s): Sons Of The Pioneers
and multiple other artists



A lonely spot, I know where no man will go
Where the shadows have all the room
I was ridin' free on the old SP
Humming a southern tune

When a man came along made me hush my song
Kicked me off, way out there
As she pulled out of sight I turned to the right
A left and everywhere

But all I could see was a cactus tree
And a prairie dog playing there
I watched the prairie dog feed on the tumbleweed
That's his home, way out there

So I threw down my load in the desert road
Rested my weary legs too
I watched the sinking sun, make the tall shadows run
Out across that barren plain

Then I hummed a tune to the risin' moon
He gets lonesome way out there
So I closed my eyes to the starlit skies
And lost myself in dreams

I dreamed the desert sand was a milk and honey land
Then I awoke with a start
There the train comin' back on that one way track
Gonna take me away from here

As she was passin' by, I caught her on the fly
I climbed in an open door
Then I turned around to that desert ground
Saw the spot I would see no more

As I was ridin' away
I heard the pale moon say
Farewell pal
It sure gets lonesome here

Shuffle Off To Buffalo
Composer(s): Al Dubin; Harry Warren
Performer(s): Ruby Keeler, Clarence Nordstrum, Ginger Rogers, Una Merkel
and multiple other artists



Now that we have had the rice and flowers
The knot is tied
I can visu'lize such happy hours
Close by your side
The honeymoon in store
Is one that you'll adore
I'm gonna take you for a ride

I'll go home and get my panties
You go home and get your scanties
And away we'll go
Mmm-mmm-mmm
Off we're gonna shuffle
Shuffle off to Buffalo

To Niag'ra in a sleeper
There's no honeymoon that's cheaper
And the train goes slow
Ooh-ooh- ooh
Off, we're gonna shuffle
Shuffle off to Buffalo

Someday, the stork may pay a visit
And leave a little souvenir
Just a little cute "what is it"
But we'll discuss that later, Dear
For a little silver quarter
We can have the Pullman porter
Turn the lights down low
Ooh!
Off we're gonna shuffle
Shuffle off to Buffalo

Si Je Chante
(English Version: My Whole World Is Falling Down)
Composer(s): Bill Anderson; Vline Buggy; Jerry D. Crutchfield
Performer(s): Sylvie Vartan



Si je chante, c'est pour toi
C'est pour toi
Oui pour toi
Je t'en prie, ne pleure pas
Et vas sécher tes larmes

Il t'a dit je t'aime, et tu l'as cru
C'était le soir même où tu l'as connu
Aujourd'hui tu pleures car tu l'as vu
Embrasser la meilleure de tes amies

Si je chante, c'est pour toi
C'est pour toi
Oui pour toi
Ne pleure pas, tu l'oublieras
Tu oublieras tes larmes

Je sais qu'il est dur de recommencer
Crois moi, crois moi, il faut lutter
Car tu as quinze ans et tu vas trouver
Le vrai bonheur longtemps espéré

Si je chante, c'est pour toi
C'est pour toi
Oui pour toi
Il faut chanter avec moi
Et oublier tes larmes

Si je chante, c'est pour toi
C'est pour toi
Oui pour toi
Il faut chanter avec moi
Et oublier tes larmes

We'll Dress The House
Composer(s): Alfred Shaddick Burt; Wihla Hutson
Performer(s): Voices Of Jimmy Joyce;
and various other artists



We'll dress the house with holly bright and sprigs of mistletoe
We'll trim the Christmas tree tonight and set the lights aglow
We'll wrap our gifts with ribbons gay and give them out on Christmas Day
By everything we do and say, our gladness we will show

We'll dress the table daintily, our finest treasures use
That all a-sparkle it may be and bright with lovely hews
Then for the feasting we'll prepare a kitchen full of wondrous fare
That each from all the dishes rare, his fav'rite one may choose

And ye who would the Christ child greet, your heart also adorn
That it may be a dwelling meet for Him who now is born
Let all unlovely things give place to souls bedecked with heavenly grace
That ye may view His holy face with joy on Christmas morn

We'll dress the house with holly bright and sprigs of mistletoe
We'll trim the Christmas tree tonight and set the lights aglow
We'll wrap our gifts with ribbons gay and give them out on Christmas Day
By everything we do and say, our gladness we will show 

My Whole World Is Falling Down
(French Version: Si Je Chante)
Composer(s): Bill Anderson; Jerry Crutchfield
Performer(s): Brenda Lee



My whole world is falling down, falling down, falling down
My whole world is falling down, I'm losing my baby

Told me that your love for me was true
Said you'd love me your whole life through
But now you're asking me to set you free
You've found some body you love more than me

My whole world is falling down, falling down, falling down
My whole world is falling down, I'm losing my baby

I miss your loving that was so fine
I need it, I need it all of the time
For I still love you in the same old way
Yet I'm losing you a little every day

My whole world is falling down, falling down, falling down
My whole world is falling down, I'm losing my baby

My whole world is falling down, falling down, falling down
My whole world is falling down, I'm losing my baby

Weihnachtszeit, Kinderzeit
Composer(s): Udo Jürgens; Heinz Tust
Performer(s): Udo Jürgens



Lichterschein in jedem Fenster
und ich gehe durch die Stadt
hochgeschlagen ist mein Kragen,
und ich seh' manchen, der es eilig hat

Vor der Kirche bleib' ich stehen
schau' mich um und trete ein
und ich höre Kinder singen
meine Kindheit fällt mir ein

Weihnachtszeit, Kinderzeit
Alle Tage hell und froh
Oh, wäre es doch immer so
wie heut' 

Weihnachtszeit, Kinderzeit
Und es brennt das Licht der Liebe
wenn man seinen Namen nennt
wie heut'

Die Erinnerung wird bleiben
wenn die Jahre auch vergeh'n
und wir denken still an morgen
wenn wir in die Kerzen seh'n

All die Kinder dieser Erde
ob sie groß sind oder klein
laße sie in Liebe leben
dann wird immer Frieden sein

Weihnachtszeit, Kinderzeit, ... 

We're Over
Composer(s): Barry Mann; Cynthia Weil
Performer(s): B.J. Thomas
and multiple other artists



We're over, I guess you know we're over
Even though all the words are still unsaid
And we talk of other things instead

We're over, we come and go, we're over
We go on like the actors in a play
Acting out our lives from day to day

Going through our phrases
With smiling frozen faces
That tell more than they hide

And knowin' when we fake it
It's not love when you make it
Without any feelin' inside

We're over, that's all we are, we're over
And all that's left is to find a reason why
We're over and we still can't say goodbye

Wear A Smile At Christmas
Composer(s): Mark Lindsay; Terry Melcher
Performer(s): Paul Revere & The Raiders



Look at all the people hurrying by
No one's got time to smile
Each one busy in his own particular way
Hurrying nowhere, don't even know why
Mile after lonely mile,
Here's advice to brighten up their day

Wear a smile at Christmas
No one likes, no one likes to see a frown
Wear a smile at Christmas
No one likes, no one likes you when you're down

(My fellow Americans, be merry)
(Count your blessings for a while)

And wear a smile at Christmas
Wear a Christmas smile

Si J'avais Un Piano
Composer(s): Charles Aznavour; Gaby Wagenheim
Performer(s): Charles Aznavour



Si j'avais de l'argent, j'achèterais un piano
Quand j'aurai un piano je pourrai faire des gammes
Dés qu'on sait faire des gammes on peux jouer des morceaux
Aussi salle Gaveau je donnerais un programme
À ce programme viendrait tout un public ardant
Qui devant tant de talent m'enverrait ses bravos
Et grâce à leurs bravos je gagnerais de l'argent
Et avec cet argent j'achèterais un piano

Si j'avais de la chance je rencontrerais l'amour
En rencontrant l'amour je prendrais plus d'assurance
Avec cet assurance qui changerait mes jours
Paraissant bien plus fort j'inspirerais confiance
Avec désinvolture et beaucoup de élégance
À bien des jolies femmes je pourrais faire ma cour
Dés que j'aurais tout ça c'est que j'aurais de la chance
Et avec de la chance je rencontrerais l'amour
Si j'avais de l'argent je rencontrerais l'amour
En rencontrant l'amour j'achèterais un piano
Quand j'aurais un piano je pourrais faire ma cour
Et pour faire ma cour j'irai salle Gaveau
Avec désinvolture le public en confiance
Devant tant de jolies femmes enverrait ses bravos
Comme j'aurais des bravos, j'aurais aussi de la chance
Et avec cette chance, j'achèterais un piano

Et avec ce piano qui m'apportera de la chance
Je gagnerai de l'argent, et j'achèterai de l'amour

Always Gonna Love You
Composer(s): Gary Moore
Performer(s): Gary Moore



It's not the same when I look in her eyes
The magic's not there
And when I look, I realize
What we could have shared

I'm always gonna love you
If loving means forever
I'm always gonna want you
I don't think I could ever
Just forget the love we had

It's not the same when she's here in my arms
Or the smile on her face
And even though with all of her charms
She can't take your place

I'm always gonna love you
If loving means forever
I'm always gonna want you
I don't think I could ever
Just forget the love we had

It's not the same when I look in her eyes
The magic's not there
And when I look, I realize
What we could have shared

I'm always gonna love you
If loving means forever
I'm always gonna want you
I don't think I could ever
Just forget the love we had

I'm always gonna love you
If loving means forever
I'm always gonna want you
I don't think I could ever
Just forget the love we had

I'm always gonna love you ... 

Where Have All The Hobos Gone
Composer(s): Dave Kirby; Danny Morrison
Performer(s): Merle Haggard



The silver rails have lost their shine
They're just the victims of our time
They might as well rust in the rain
What good's a track without a train

Where have all the hoboes gone
I never knew they even had a home
So Lord if you have turned your back
You might as well take off the track

I love to hear a whistle whin
Just ride a boxcar one more time
So Lord if you're still on my side
You'll send me one more train to ride

Where have all the hoboes gone
I never knew they even had a home
So Lord if you have turned your back
You might as well take off the track

Hm, hmm, so Lord if you're still on my side
You'll send me one more train to ride...

Si j'avais un marteau
Je cognerais le jour
Je cognerais la nuit
J'y mettrais tout mon cœur
Je bâtirais une ferme
Une grange et une barrière
Et j'y mettrais mon père
Ma mère, mes frères et mes sœurs
Oh oh, ce serait le bonheur

Si j'avais une cloche
Je sonnerais le jour
Je sonnerais la nuit
J'y mettrais tout mon cœur,
Pour le travail à l'aube
Et le soir pour la soupe
J'appellerais mon père
Ma mère, mes frères et mes sœurs
Oh oh, ce serait le bonheur

Si j'avais une chanson
J'la chanterais le jour
J'la chanterais la nuit
J'y mettrais tout mon cœur
En retournant la terre
Pour alléger nos peines
J'la chanterais à mon père
Ma mère, mes frères et mes sœurs
Oh oh, ce serait le bonheur

Si j'avais un marteau
Et si j'avais une cloche
Puis si j'avais une chanson à chanter
Je serais le plus heureux
Je ne voudrais rien d'autre
Qu'un marteau, une cloche et une chanson
Pour l'amour de mon père
Ma mère, mes frères et mes sœurs
Oh oh, ce serait le bonheur

C'est le marteau du courage
C'est la cloche de la liberté
Mais la chanson c'est pour mon père
Ma mère, mes frères et mes sœurs
Oh oh, pour moi c'est le bonheur
C'est ça le vrai bonheur
Si j'avais un marteau
Si j'avais un marteau

We Three Kings
Composer(s): John Hopkins Jr.
Performer(s): "Tennessee" Ernie Ford - 1958
and multiple other artists



We three kings of Orient are
Bearing gifts we traverse afar
Field and fountain, moor and mountain
Following yonder star

O star of wonder, star of night
Star with royal beauty bright
Westward leading, still proceeding
Guide us to thy perfect light

Born a King on Bethlehem's plain
Gold I bring to crown him again
King forever, ceasing never
Over us all to reign

O star of wonder, star of night
Star with royal beauty bright
Westward leading, still proceeding
Guide us to thy perfect light

Frankincense to offer have I
Incense owns a Deity nigh
Prayer and praising, all men raising
Worship Him, God on high

O star of wonder, star of night
Star with royal beauty bright
Westward leading, still proceeding
Guide us to thy perfect light

Myrrh is mine, its bitter perfume
Breathes a life of gathering gloom
Sorr'wing, sighing, bleeding, dying
Sealed in the stone-cold tomb

O star of wonder, star of night
Star with royal beauty bright
Westward leading, still proceeding
Guide us to thy perfect light

Glorious now behold Him arise
King and God and Sacrifice
Alleluia, Alleluia!
Earth to heav'n replies

O star of wonder, star of night
Star with royal beauty bright
Westward leading, still proceeding
Guide us to thy perfect light
 
								

Where The Blue And Lonely Go
Composer(s): Jimmy Warren; Alvaro Verissimo; Bill Silva; Charles Sagle
Performer(s): Roy Drusky; Dean Martin



Where the blue and lonely go
Where the music's loud and clear
It's the only place I know
Where the blue and lonely go

The street lights serve to light my way as I make my way downtown
To one of many nightspots I know where they're all found
Yes I'm back again to the lonely life a life that many know
Soon I'll be there with a glass of wine where the blue and lonely go

Where the blue and lonely go...

There was a time when I had love and I tried so to be free
From the life that I was used to it was just too hard for me
Now as I try to keep my heart from letting mem'ries show
I pretend that I'm so happy here where the blue and lonely go

Where the blue and lonely go...

We Need God For Christmas
Composer(s): Ernest Tubb; Alma Donaldson
Performer(s): Ernest Tubb



Though Christmas is the time of year to be happy and gay
Many hearts will be sad this Christmas Day
For loved ones who are far away across the deep blue sea
Loved ones who belong to you and me

Let’s go to church this Christmas, get on our knees and pray 
For God too protect us and the good old U.S.A.
Let’s do our part with all our hearts this Christmas next year
No empty chair will sadden Christmas cheer

We Need God For Christmas and all the whole year too
If we believe He’ll surely see us through
His precious love, His mighty hand, will help us one and all
Let’s turn to God before our country falls

Let’s go to church this Christmas, get on our knees and pray 
For God too protect us and the good old U.S.A.
Let’s do our part with all our hearts, then Christmas next year
No empty chair will sadden Christmas cheer

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!
