Silver Stars, Purple Sage, Eyes Of Blue Composer(s): Tyler Performer(s): Cliffie Stone
Silver stars, purple sage, eyes of blue Prairie skies, tender sighs, hearts so true Out where mother natures really given All the things that make a heap of living Silver stars, purple sage, eyes of blue Got my horse, got my dog, and got you Do I really love it here? Yes, indeed I do Silver stars, purple sage, eyes of blue
Oh, we grow things mighty big down in Kentucky But there's nothing in that state that can compare To a cow that we once had us And the name of her was Gladys Boy, you should have seen the neighbors stop and stare She stood 10 feet tall and had one purple eyeball It took eight of us to milk her, here is why She had 27 spigots And the tourists all bought tickets Just to watch us milk and hear us loudly cry-y-y-y...
(Chorus)
Oh, pass the udder udder and I'll pass it to my brudder And I'll pass the udder udder dis-a-way So we passed the udder udder and I passed it to my brudder Oh, we really had our hands full every day
We created quite a spectacle, I grant you But we milked her just as pretty as you please And while people said "How funny" We raked in enough durn money To go out and order ermine BVD's Father turned her on her back one Sunday morning Gladys said "I'm upside down, now what's the gag?" "Well, the reason why," said Pop "is so the cream will be on top" "Gosh," the cow said, "in that case, it's in the bag!"
(Repeat chorus)
Now our Gladys was a star in cattle circles Though she couldn't read or write her name in full You would think she'd been to college Although she herself acknowledged That she gained her fame entirely by pull Gladdys said to us one cold and wintry morning She said "Milking is the thing I dearly loves But when I get a cold it lingers And I can't stand icy fingers So go on back in the house and get your gloves!"
Katinka Composer(s): Joop Stokkermans; Lodewijk Post; Henny Hambuis First performance: De Spelbrekers - 1962
Elke morgen om half negen komen wij Katinka tegen blauwe ogen, blonde lok hel geel truitje, korte rok maar ze trippelt zwijgend naast d'er Ma daarom zingen alle jongens haar verlangend na
Kleine kokette Katinka kijk nou es één keertje om stiekempjes over je schouder je ma merkt het toch niet, dus kom! Kleine kokette Katinka ben je verlegen misschien? We willen zo graag nog heel even een glimp van je wipneusje zien
Elke morgen, zon of regen komen wij Katinka tegen hakjes, tiktak op de stoep korte rok met nauwe coupe maar haar blik verraadt geen nee of ja daarom zingen alle jongens haar verlangend na
Kleine kokette Katinka kijk nou es één keertje om stiekempjes over je schouder je ma merkt het toch niet, dus kom! Kleine kokette Katinka ben je verlegen misschien? We willen zo graag nog heel even een glimp van je wipneusje zien
Music happen to be the food of love Sounds to really make you rub and scrub!
I say Pass the Dutchie on the left hand side! Pass the Dutchie on the left hand side! It a gonna burn, give me music make me jump and prance It a go done, give me the music make me rock in the dance!
It was a cool and lovely breezy afternoon (How does it feel when you've got no food?) You could feel it 'cause it was the month of June (How does it feel when you've got no food?) So I left my gate and went out for a walk (How does it feel when you've got no food?) As I pass the dreadlocks' camp I heard them say... (How does it feel when you've got no food?)
Pass the Dutchie on the left hand side! Pass the Dutchie on the left hand side! It a gonna burn, give me music make me jump and prance It a go done, give me the music make me rock in the dance!
So I stopped to find out what was going on (How does it feel when you've got no food?) 'Cause the spirit of Jah, you know he leads you on (How does it feel when you've got no food?) There was a ring of dreads and a session was there in swing (How does it feel when you've got no food?) You could feel the chill as I seen and heard them say... (How does it feel when you've got no food?)
Pass the Dutchie on the left hand side! Pass the Dutchie on the left hand side! It a gonna burn, give me music make me jump and prance It a go done, give me the music make me rock in the dance!
'Cause me say listen to the drummer, me say listen to the bass Give me little music make me wind up me waist Me say listen to the drummer, me say listen to the bass Give me little music make me wind up me waist, I say...
Pass the Dutchie on the left hand side! Pass the Dutchie on the left hand side! It a gonna burn, give me music make me jump and prance It a go done, give me the music make me rock in the dance!
You play it on the radio, a so me say, we a go hear it on the stereo A so me know you a go play it on the disco A so me say we a go hear it on the stereo!
Pass the Dutchie on the left hand side! Pass the Dutchie on the left hand side! It a gonna burn, give me music make me jump and prance It a go done, give me the music make me rock in the dance!
I say east, say west, say north and south (on the left hand side) This is gonna make us jump and shout (on the left hand side)
Silver Spoon Composer(s): Judi Pulver Performer(s): Petula Clark
I don't want no golden plate No breakfast in the city No, I don't need no silver glass for my soul
Sure I'd miss those city lights On certain nights they're pretty But all I want is to stay with you
Oh how I feel when the sun comes up And it brings your face of you Wherever you're going to Could I please Come along with you?
I don't need no stocking filled With gifts you gotta pay back And I don't need no superman balloon All I want is to love you love And to love you long and lay back And never need to lack the silver spoon
Oh how I feel when the sun comes up And it brings your face of you Wherever you're going Could I pease Come along with you? Wherever you're going Could I please Come along with you?
Take me along with you Can I please come along with you? Cause I'm so much in love with you
Oh how I feel when the sun comes up And it brings your face of you Wherever you're going Could I please Come along with you? Wherever you're going Could I please Come along with you?
Would you take me along with you? Can I please come along with you?

I got me ten fine toes to wiggle in the sand
Lots of idle fingers snap to my command
A lovely pair of heels that kick to beat the band
Contemplatin', nature can be fascinatin'!
Add to these a nose that I can thumb
And a mouth, by gum, have I
To tell the whole damned world
"If you don't happen to like it
Deal me out, thank you kindly, pass me by!
Pass me by, pass me by
If you don't happen to like it, pass me by!"
Lots of idle fingers snap to my command
Contemplatin', nature can be fascinatin'!

Deal me out, thank you kindly, pass me by!
Pass me by, pass me by
If you don't happen to like it, pass me by!"

No sabrás nunca sabrás lo que es morir mil veces de ansiedad no podrás nunca entender lo que es amar y enloquecer
Tus besos que queman tus labios que embriagan y que torturan mi razón se que nunca mas podré arrancar del pecho este querer Estas clavada en mi te siento en el latir abrazador de mis sienes te adoro cuando estás te amo mucho más cuando estas lejos de mi Tengo miedo de perderte de pensar que no he de verte porque esta duda brutal? porque me habré de sangrar? si en cada beso te siento desmayar sin embargo me atormento porque en la sangre te llevo y a cada instante febril y amante quiero tus labios besar
Te quiero siempre así estás clavada en mi como un puñal en la carne y ardiente y pasionál temblando de ansiedad quiero en tus brazos morir
Vuggevise First performance by: Ellen Winther - 1962
Nu er alle folk i hele byen lige ved at si' godnat Ham, du ve' nok, pusler me' paraplyen Så nu sker det, skat Solen trak gardinet for Se nu blev i dag i går Skynd dig ind i sove-rige Så din drøm bli'r rigtig lang Skynd dig ind i lege-land Li' så hurtigt som du kan Mød den lille sjove pige Du fortalte om engang Så tænker mor imens på alt det grå og triste Som voksne menn'sker kymrer sig om Og streger alle sorger på den lange liste Så den i morgen tidlig er tom Skynd dig ind i lege-land Li' så hurtigt som du kan Skynd dig ind i sove-rige Så din drøm bli'r rigtig lang Så, nu skal du ligge rigtig stille Stille som en lille mus Hør, så kan du høre en stjerne spille over vores hus Så tænker mor imens på alt det grå og triste Som voksne menn'sker kymrer sig om Og streger alle sorger på den lange liste Så den i morgen tidlig er tom Skynd dig ind i lege-land Li' så hurtigt som du kan Skynd dig ind i sove-rige Så din drøm bli'r rigtig lang

Oh, you railway station Oh, you Pullman train Heres my reservation, for my destination Far beyond the western plain To see my home in Pasadena My home, where grass is greener Where honey bees, hum melodies And orange trees scent the breeze I want to be a home-sweet-homer Why, then Ill settle down Beneath those palms in someones arms In Pasadena Yes, in Pasadena town
Silver Medals And Sweet Memories Composer(s): Don Reid Performer(s): The Statler Brothers
Just a picture on a table, just some letters Mama saved And a costume brooch from England that has on the back engraved "To Eileen, I love you, London, 1943" But she never heard from him again, and he never heard of me
And the war still ain't over for Mama Every night in her dreams she still sees The young face of someone who brought her Silver medals and sweet memories
In Mama's bedroom closet, to this day on her top shelf There's a flag folded three-cornered, layin' by itself The sergeant would surely be honored to know how pretty she still is And after all these lonely years, his Eileen still lives
And the war still ain't over for Mama Every night in her dreams she still sees The young face of someone who brought her Silver medals and sweet memories
Pasaba Por Aquí Composer(s): Luis Eduardo Aute Performer(s): Luis Eduardo Aute
La hora fue, sin duda lo que me hizo subir al ver aún encendida la luz en la ventana de David No pienses que te espío no llego a ser tan ruin es torpe que tú creas que quiero "sorprenderte en un desliz" Y bien qué tontería no soy nada sutil si yo sólo pasaba pasaba por aquí, pasaba por aquí ningún teléfono cerca y no lo pude resistir pasaba por aquí Qué esperas que te cuente hay poco que decir tal vez me vaya un tiempo no aguanto este alboroto de Madrid Te veo muy distinta es nuevo ese carmín está mucho más guapa será que te embellece ser feliz Qué cosas se me ocurren todo esto es tan pueril si sólo yo pasaba pasaba por aquí pasaba por aquí ningún teléfono cerca y no lo pude resistir pasaba por aquí...
Nur In Der Wiener Luft Composer(s): Bruno Uher First performance by: Eleonore Schwarz - 1962
Nur in der Wiener Luft spürt man den b'sonder'n Duft Von einer gewissen süßen Walzermelodie Schaut man zum Fenster 'naus, klingt es nach Johann Strauß Und nach dem Zauber seiner Walzerpoesie
Und jedes Wienerkind liebt diesen einen Wind Sausend und brausend, wie ein Kind der Phantasien Oft kann er zärtlich sein, stürmt oft wie junger Wein Zauberer von Wien, Walzer aus Wien
Stephansdom, Rathausmann, Sacher und Würschtelmann Kennt jedes Kind auf der Welt Von unser'n Backhendln, Schubert und Staatsoper Hat schon der Opa erzählt
Und dann noch Grinzing und Burgtheater, Schrammeln und Hauptallee Sind unsere Spezialität Aber da fehlt noch was Wichtiges, nämlich das Was nett im Baedeker steht
Nur in der Wiener Luft liegt so ein b'sond'rer Duft Singend und klingend bringt er Dich zu Phantasien Oft kann er zärtlich sein, stürmt oft wie junger Wein Zauberer von Wien, Walzer aus Wien
Und jedes Wienerkind liebt diesen einen Wind Sausend und brausend wie ein Kind der Phantasien Oft kann er zärtlich sein, stürmt oft wie junger Wein Walzer aus Wien, jahahahaaa
Pas Trop De Peine Composer(s): Francis Cabrel Performer(s): Francis Cabrel
Moi, quand j'avais 14 ans Les accords de Dylan Meublaient mes insomnies Et je m'endormais le matin Ma guitare à la main Sans débrancher l'ampli Toi, tes parents te gardaient des ronds Pour que tu aies ta maison Avec un jardin sur le devant Pour les soirs de printemps Et quand tu arrivais au lycée T'avais tout étudié On était fier de toi Moi, je disais je regrette J'ai des notes plein la tête Je ne vous entends pas Elles s'envolent par millier tous les soirs Du fond de ma guitare Ils m'ont dit qu'ils n'étaient pas d'accord Ils m'ont foutu dehors
Ça m'a pas fait trop de peine Mais j'ai dit Vos livres sont moisis Vos principes me gênent Et vos chaînes m'ennuient Surtout gardez vos rengaines Pour ceux qui sont déjà endormis Moi je suis pour qu'on sème Des graines de folie
Et j'ai fait pas mal de détours J'ai vécu à la cour Des mendiants et des rois Pendant que toi tu comptais Tes primes de fin d'année Tes cravates de soie Mais l'autre jour je t'ai retrouvé Derrière ton guichet Et j'ai compris à travers tes lunettes Que c'est toi qui regrette
Ça m'a pas fait trop de peine Mai j'ai dit Tes livres étaient moisis Ton costume te gêne Et tes chaînes t'ennuient Tu as écouté la rengaine Ça fait 30 ans que tu es endormi T'as tes 4 semaines Moi j'ai toute ma vie...
