Mimi (English Version) Composer(s): Laurenz Hart; Richard Rodgers Performer(s): Bing Crosby; and various other artists
My left shoe's on my right foot My right shoe's on my left Oh! listen to me Mimi Of reason I'm bereft! The buttons of my trousers Are button'd to my vest Oh! listen to me Mimi Mere passion's in my breast!
(refrain) Mimi, you funny little good for nothing Mimi Am I the guy? Mimi, you sunny little honey of a Mimi I'm aiming high! Mimi, you've got me sad and dreamy You could free me, if you'd see me Mimi, you know I'd like to have A little son of a Mimi bye and bye
I was walking down the street the other day Who did I meet I met a friend of mine and he did say Man I can smell your feet a mile away Smile away, smile away, smile away, yeah smile away Smile away, smile away, smile away, yeah smile away
Mimi (French Version) Composer(s): Laurenz Hart; Richard Rodgers Performer(s): Maurice Chevalier
Qu'ai-je donc dans la cervelle Je me suis trompé de foulard J'oublie de mettre des bretelles Tout de même c'est bizarre J'ai dit "bonjour mam'zelle" L'aut'jour au chef de gare Toutes mes idées s'emmêlent C'est l'amour qui m'égare
Mimi, mon beau p'tit bout d'chou de rien du tout Mimi, est-ce que tu m'aimes? Mimi, mon tout petit roudoudou d'un sou Je t'aime plus que moi-même Mimi, quand un ennui m'tracasse Je t'embrasse et ça passe Mimi, si mes baisers valaient deux sous la paire Tu serais Mimi millionnaire
Vous vous rappelez de Louise? Vous vous rappelez? Every little breeze seems to whisper Louise Ah, mais elle n'avait pas ça et ça et ça et ça Comme Mimi, oh Mimi
Vous vous rappelez de Valentine? Oh Valentine, ah j'avoue qu'elle était un peu là Avec son p'tit menton et puis ses p'tits tétons Mais c'était pas Mimi, oh non, non pas Mimi
Et les yeux de Lisette, le sourire de Rosette La pudeur de Suzette, ma parade d'amour Ah c'est facile à oublier pour Mimi! Et Mitzi, oh cette Mitzi, Mitzi, Bitzi, Kitzi, Mitzi Croyez-vous qu'elle valait Mimi? Ma p'tite môme de môme de Mimi oh Mimi
Mimi, mon beau p'tit bout d'chou de rien du tout Mimi, est-ce que tu m'aimes? Mimi, mon tout petit roudoudou d'un sou Je t'aime plus que moi-même Mimi, quand un ennui m'tracasse Je t'embrasse et ça passe Mimi, si mes baisers valaient deux sous la paire Tu serais Mimi millionnaire
Pleure Pas Composer(s): Henri Contet; Aimé Barelli Performer(s): Edith Piaf
Pleure pas T'as les yeux trop beaux pour ça Pleure pas Ou bien moi, je pleure avec toi Pleure pas Mon pauvre grande, j'peux pas voir ça! Tais-toi T'as le cur qui m'éclate dans les bras Mon amour! Mon amour! Parle-moi! Raconte-moi! Et d'abord, à mon tour Tu vas voir, je pleure mieux que toi! Pleure pas T'as les yeux trop beaux pour ça Pleure pas Quand tu pleures, je suis sur ma croix Tu vois Tu me fais mal, et t'as pas le droit Pleure pas! Pleure pas! ...
Mon grand bonhomme, mais qu'est-ce qui se passe? Tu n'as pas le cur à la même place... Je le vois bien... Et si tu pleures, qu'est-ce que je vais faire? T'as du chagrin Mon Dieu! Misère! Et je n'y peux rien Pleure pas T'as les yeux trop beaux pour ça Pleure pas Souris-moi au moins une fois... une fois... Et après t'as tous les droits Voilà!... Tu as dit ce qu'il ne fallait pas... Mon amour! Mon amour! C'est donc ça... Tu ne m'aimes plus On n'avait qu'un amour Et ton cur l'a perdu Pleure pas On change tout Ça vient, ça va... Pleure pas Tu verras, tout s'arrangera Pourquoi? Mais pourquoi? Puisque tu vois... Je pleure pas, moi! Je pleure pas...
Smile As You Go By Composer(s): Paul Craft Performer(s): Dickey Lee
If you can't love me till forever I'd never hold you and I won't cry Leave me gently when it's over if you can't stop smile as you go by I could love you like I found you with the sunshine in your eyes I'd never wrap out the dreams around you if you can't stop smile as you go by If it's forever let me feeling if it's not and still you're satified Treat me gently when it's over if you can't stop smile as you go by
Djambo Djambo
First performance by: Peter, Sue & Marc - 1976
The birds have known the old man for many years
His eyes have seen so much and look so mild
He's up at four and early every morning
He feeds them and feels happy like a child
Once he was a clown in the arena
People said the best that ever was
Now they call him good old Djambo Djambo
But in his dreams, he still hears the applause
Hey hey hey... hey hey hey hey... Djambo Djambo
Don't be sad, for you know that the show must go on
Hey hey hey... hey hey hey hey... Djambo Djambo
It was you who had us laughing - you're the one
And sometimes you can see him on the sidewalk
With little boys and girls around his feets
When Djambo Djambo plays his barrel organ
Children call it 'circus in the streets'
Suddenly his eyes reflect emotion
In Djambo's mind, the limelight shines again
He's back on stage and all the kids are laughing
Just as if the show would never end
Hey hey hey... hey hey hey hey... Djambo Djambo
Don't be sad, for you know that the show must go on
Hey hey hey... hey hey hey hey... Djambo Djambo
It was you who had us laughing - you're the one
Hey hey hey... hey hey hey hey... Djambo Djambo
Don't be sad, for you know that the show must go on
Hey hey hey... hey hey hey hey... Djambo Djambo
It was you who had us laughing - you're the one
It was you who had us laughing - you're the one
Smile A Little Smile For Me Composer(s): Geoff Stephens; Tony Macaulay The Flying Machine
You really should accept this time he's gone for good He'll never come back now even though he said he would So, darling, dry your eyes So many other guys Would give the world, I'm sure, to wear the shoes he wore
Oh, come on Smile A Little Smile For Me, Rose Marie Where's the use in cryin' In a little while you'll see, Rose Marie You must keep on tryin'
I guess you're lonely now, love's coming to an end But, darling, only now are you free to start again Lift up your pretty chin, don't let those tears begin You're a big girl now, and you'll pull through somehow
Oh, come on Smile a little smile ...........
I know that he hurt you bad I know, darling, don't be sad And Smile A Little Smile For Me Rose Marie....Rose Marie

Well, I've already had two beers I'm ready for the broom Please, Missus Henry, won't you Take me to my room?

I can drink like a fish I can crawl like a snake I can bite like a turkey I can slam like a drake Please, Missus Henry, Missus Henry Please Please, Missus Henry, please I'm down on my knees And I ain't got a dime
Now, don't crowd me, lady Or I'll fill up your shoe I'm a sweet bourbon daddy And tonight I am blue I'm a thousand years old And I'm a generous bomb I'm T-boned and punctured But I'm known to be calm Please, Missus Henry, Missus Henry Please Please, Missus Henry, please I'm down on my knees And I ain't got a dime Now, I'm startin' to drain My stool's gonna squeak If I walk too much farther My crane's gonna leak Look, Missus Henry There's only so much I can do Why don't you look my way And pump me a few? Please, Missus Henry, Missus Henry Please Please, Missus Henry, please I'm down on my knees And I ain't got a dime
Smile Composer(s): W. Theunissen Performer(s): Pussycat
There were days I couldn't weep, nights I couldn't sleep An' everything I did just turned out wrong Till there was you to dry my tears, whisper love words in my ears And this is why I'm glad you came along
Now there's a smile to cheer me up when I'm lonely That I can call whenever I'm feeling down Smile and you know that I'm only Longin' for the minute you'll be around
Help me 'cause I'm tryin' to get over The way I thought of love many times before If ever you should go away, an' nobody else could be near There's always a smile to remember that you were here
If I could fly away to a bright blue summer day Trying to share my love with you for evermore Darling, you make my life complete, you're everything I need I'll never be the same I was before
(Now there's a smile) There's a smile to cheer me up (To cheer me up when I'm lonely) When I'm lonely That I can call whenever I'm feelin' down Smile your smile and Darlin' you know That I'm only longin' for the minute you'll be around
Help me 'cause I'm tryin' to get over The way I thought of love many times before If ever you should go away, an' nobody else could be near There's always a smile to remember that you were here
There's always a smile to remember that you were here
There's always a smile to remember that you were here
Smile Composer(s): Charlie Chaplin First performance by: Alfred Newman - 1936 Covered by multiple other artists
Titles In Other Languages: 1955 - Ton Sourire Est Dans Mon Cur 1983 - Femme 2008 - Se Mai Ti Parlassero Di Me
Smile though your heart is aching Smile even though it's breaking When there are clouds in the sky, you'll get by If you smile through your fear and sorrow Smile and maybe tomorrow You'll see the sun come shining through for you
Light up your face with gladness Hide every trace of sadness Although a tear may be ever so near That's the time you must keep on trying Smile, what's the use of crying? You'll find that life is still worthwhile If you just smile
That's the time you must keep on trying Smile, what's the use of crying? You'll find that life is still worthwhile If you just smile
Please Tell Me Why Composer(s): Dave Clark; Mike Smith Performer(s): The Dave Clark Five; The Gants
I don't know why she won't love me Lord, please tell me why Maybe it's that she don't love me Don't count on it please, she's shy
If she's shy then I'll understand I'll make the first move and hold her hand But if I'm wrong then I'll be mad La-da-da-da-da
I've been tryin' oh so hard But she don't seem to notice I sit next to her in class But she can't see my motive
Do you think she has a boy If she has then I'm done 'Cause if he catches me with her I think I'll have to run
If she's passive she'll understand I'll value my love but not in her hands But if I'm wrong then I'll be mad La-da-da-da-da La-da-da-da-da La-da-da-da-da
Ton Sourire Est Dans Mon Coeur - 1955 (aka Femme - 1983) (Adapted from: Smile - 1936) (Italian Version: Se Mai Ti Parlassero Di Me - 2008) Composer(s): Charlie Chaplin; Henri Contet Performer(s): Jacqueline François - 1955
J'ai ton sourire dans mon coeur C'est ma petite fleur de bonheur Quand tu souris, j'ai le ciel dans ma vie Ton sourire c'est l'étoile du matin C'est mon ami, mon copain Et je lui dis cent fois merci, merci
Quand une rose fleurit C'est qu'en passant tu souris Tu es soleil et l'eau vive et le miel Souris-moi, mon amour, souris-moi Tout s'illumine par toi Ma route est bleue sous le ciel gris Quand tu souris
J'ai ton sourire dans mon coeur C'est ma petite fleur de bonheur Ma fleur d'amour, ma cocarde Un beau jour tu souris et la vie te répond Tout s'éparpille en chansons Je les écoute et je te dis Merci, merci
Please Stay Composer(s): Bob Hilliard; Burt Bacharach Performer(s): The Drifters
Don't go (Please stay) Don't go (Please stay)
If I got on my knees and I pleaded with you Not to go but to stay in my ar-arms Would you walk out the door like you did once before? Or would this time be different, would you sta-a-ay?
Don't go (Please stay) Don't go
If I called out your name like a prayer in the night Would you leave me alone with my tears? Knowing I-I, I love you so-o, would you still turn and go? Or would this time be different in some wa-a-ay?
Don't go (Please stay) (Please stay)
You took me away from the rest of the world When you taught me to love you like this Now I hang by a thread in the canyon of doom But I still can be saved ... by your kiss
If I got on my knees and I pleaded with you Not to go but to stay in my ar-arms Would you walk out the door like you did once before? Or would this time be different, would you sta-a-ay?
