Softly, Softly
Composer(s): Eddy Grant
Performer(s): The Equals



I love Jenny - Jenny loves me
I'm in trouble as you will see
I went to see Lucy (Lucy)
This morning at half past three (Whoopie)
The floorboard started to squeak
Softly
softly
softly
softly
softly
(Hey
hey
hey)
Hold on Baby
I'm coming

I'm in trouble - Trouble loves me
Great confusion
Lord help me!
Beginning of the end for me (Whoopie)
And I didn't even kiss Lucy (Lucy)
But Jenny was so moisy
Softly
softly
softly
softly
softly
(Hey
hey
hey)
Hold on Baby
I'm coming

I said
I love Jenny - Jenny loves me
I'm in trouble as you will see
I went to see Lucy (Lucy)
This morning at half past three (Whoopie)
The floorboard started to squeak
Softly
softly
softly ...

Pretty Mary
(Traditional)
Performer(s): Jimmie Driftwood



At the foot of yonder mountain
There runs a clear stream
At the foot of yonder mountain
There lives a fair queen

She's handsome, she's proper
And her ways are complete
And I ask no better pastime
Than to kneel at her feet

Her father don't like me
And I understand
He's promised Lord Randall
Her lily white hand

Lord Randall has silver
Lord Randall has gold
But she'd rather shiver
With me in the cold

Pretty Mary, pretty Mary
I'd give all I own
If I had pretty Mary
In the moonlight alone

Her father declares
I shall see her no more
Her mother forbids me
To knock on her door

They've locked her in a strong room
Where I've never been
And only Lord Randall
Is allowed to go in

I wish I was an eagle
Like an eagle I'd fly
I'd fly over the ocean
And the mountains tops high

I'd fly to her window
With a wild eagle scream
And take my pretty Mary
To the land of my dreams

Pretty Mary, pretty Mary
I'd give all I own
If I had Pretty Mary
In the moonlight alone

I'd take her to a cabin
On a mountain top wild
And care for Pretty Mary
Like she was my child

I'd fight the Lord Randall
If he ever came nie
For the love of pretty Mary
I gladly would die

Pretty Mary, pretty Mary
I'd give all I own
If I had Pretty Mary
In a home of my own

Softly, Softly
Composer(s): P. Duden - M. Paul - P. Roberts
Performer(s): Ruby Murray



Softly, softly come to me 
Touch my lips so tenderly 
Softly, softly turn the key 
And open up my heart 

Handle me with gentleness 
And say you'll leave me never 
In the warth of your caress 
My love will live for ever and ever 

So softly, softly come to me 
Touch my lips so tenderly 
Softly, softly turn the key 
And open up my heart 

Softly, softly turn the key 
And open up my heart

Pretty Maids All In Row
Composer(s): Joe Walsh; Joe Vitale
Performer(s): Eagles; Dark One Lite



Hi there
How are 'ya?
It's been a long time
Seems like we've come a long way
My, but we learn so slow
and heroes, they come
and they go
and leave us behind as if
we're s'pposed to know why
Why do we give up our hearts to the past?
and why must we grow up so fast?

And all you wishing well fools
with your fortunes
someone should send you a rose with
love from a friend
It's nice to here from you again
And the storybook comes to a close
Gone are the ribbons and bows
Things to remember places to go
Pretty Maids all in a Row
Oh, oh oh, oh......

Pretty Maid Milking A Cow
(aka It Was On A Fine Summer's Morning)
Composer(s): Caelin Deas; Thomas Moore



It was on a fine summer's morning
When the birds sweetly tuned on each bough
I heard a fair maid sing most charming
As she sat a-milking her cow
Her voice, it was chanting melodious
She left me scarce able to go
My heart it is soothed in solace
My Cailín deas crúite na mbó

With courtesy I did salute her
"Good-morrow, most amiable maid
I'm your captive slave for the future"
"Kind sir, do not banter," she said
"I'm not such a precious rare jewel
That I should enamour you so
I am but a plain country girl"
Says Cailín deas crúite na mbó

"The Indies afford no such jewel
So precious and transparently fair
Oh! do not to my flame add fuel
But consent for to love me, my dear
Take pity and grant my desire
And leave me no longer in woe
Oh! love me or else I'll expire
Sweet Cailín deas crúite na mbó"

"Or had I the wealth of great Damer
Or all on the African shore
Or had I great Devonshire treasure
Or had I ten thousand times more
Or had I the lamp of Alladin
Or had I his genie also
I'd rather live poor on a mountain
With Cailín deas crúite na mbó"

"I beg you'll withdraw and don't tease me
I cannot consent unto thee
I like to live single and airy
Till more of the world I do see
New cares they would me embarrass
Besides, sir, my fortune is low
Until I get rich I'll not marry"
Says Cailín deas crúite na mbó

"An old maid is like an old almanack
Quite useless when once out of date
If her ware is not sold in the morning
At noon it must fall to low rate
The fragrance of May is soon over
The rose loses its beauty, you know
All bloom is consumed in October
Sweet Cailín deas crúite na mbó"

"A young maid is like a ship sailing
There's no knowing how long she may steer
For with every blast she's in danger
Oh! consent, love, and banish all care
For riches I care not a farthing
Your affection I want and no more
In comfort I'd wish to enjoy you
My Cailín deas crúite na mbó.."

Softly, As In A Morning Sunrise
Composer(s): Oscar Hammerstein II; Sigmund Romberg
First performance: William O'Neal - 1928
Covered by multiple other artists



Love came to me
Gay and tender
Love came to me
Sweet surrender
Love came to me
In bright romantic splendor
Fickle was she
Faithful never
Fickle was she
And clever
So will it be – forever – forever
Softly, as in a morning sunrise
The light of love comes stealing
Into a new born day -- oh
Flaming with all the glow of sunrise
A burning kiss is sealing
The vow that all betray
For the passions that thrill love
And lift you high to heaven
Are the passions that kill love
And let you fall to hell
So ends the story
Softly, as in an evening sunset
The light that gave you glory
Will take it all away

Performer(s): Guy Mitchell



I love the sea, I love the navy
Love my biscuits soaked in gravy
But pretty little black eyed Susie
But pretty little black eyed Susie

I'm as happy as a king
Got the world upon a string

Changed my gals with ev'ry season
But pretty little black eyed Susie
But pretty little black eyed Susie
Pretty little black eyed Susie I love you

Cross my heart I love ya best of all

Oh! I love the trees, I love the flowers
Love to walk through April showers
But pretty little black eyed Susie

Cross my heart I love ya best of all

Used to say I'd never wed
Those were foolish words I said
`cos now I see
That you were meant for me

Ooooh! I used to be a guy who gambled
I had wand'rin' shoes that rambled
But pretty little black eyed Susie
But pretty little black eyed Susie
Cross my heart my rambl'in' days are through
Pretty little black eyed Susie I love you
My pretty little black eyed Susie I love you

Amour On T'aime
Composer(s): Alain Morisod - Pierre Alain
First performance by: Arlette Zola - 1982



Love we love you
On peut traverser la mer, voler autour de la Terre 	
Courir l'aventure, chercher de l'or 	
On peut quitter sa patrie 	
Refaire son nez et sa vie 	
Il nous faut l'amour d'abord 	
 	 
Amour, on t'aime, mieux que nous-mêmes 	
Mieux que l'argent, la politique et les chansons 	
Et quand bien même tu nous enchaînes 	
On a l'cœur qui bat comme les ailes d'un papillon 	
 	 
On peut croire au fantastique 	
Avoir des goûts éclectiques 	
Penser Rossini ou Travolta 	
On peut faire de la vitesse, du yoga ou du business 	
Sans amour, ce n'est pas ça 	
 	 
Amour, on t'aime, malgré nous-mêmes 
Tu nous balances comme des voiliers aux quatre vents 	
Et quand bien même, tu tiens les rênes 	
On se sent libre et l'on plane comme des goélands 	
 	 
Amour, on t'aime, malgré nous-mêmes 	
Tu nous entraînes comme des poissons dans l'océan 	
Pourtant on aime, comme tu nous mènes 	
C'est un peu fou, mais on ne peut vivre autrement 	
 	 
Amour, on t'aime, mieux que nous-mêmes 	
Mieux que l'argent, la politique et les chansons 	
Amour, on t'aime, amour en s'aime 	
On a les yeux tout pleins de rire et de lampions 	
On a l'cœur qui bat comme les ailes d'un papillon

Softly Whispering I Love You 
Composer(s): Roger Cook  - Roger Greenaway
Performer(s): Paul Young
and multiple other artists



Softly, whispering I love you
echoes of your voice are calling still through my dreams
softening the chill of the breeze

Through my window
I can see the moonglow 
painting silver shadows on a rose-colored land

A world that we walk hand in hand 
in a day of gold 
colored by the glow of new love

Oh, Woman, I can feel your warm face ever close to my lips 
and the scent of you invades the cool evening air

I can close my eyes and you´re there in my arms still 
and I know your soft kiss
turning into music every beat of my heart

When I hold you close to my heart 
and I hear your voice 
whispering I love you

Pretty Kitty Blue Eyes
Performer(s): The Merry Macs



When she walks along
On the street fellows shout
"Here, pretty Kitty
Here pretty Kitty blue eyes"

You can hear 'em shout
Every time she goes out
"Here, pretty Kitty
Here pretty Kitty blue eyes"

But she looks at no boy
She's lonely in New York
'Cause she loves a doughboy
Named Johnny O'Rourke

That's why she'll never
Hear anyone till he'll shout
"I'm here, pretty Kitty
Here pretty Kitty blue eyes"

Nuku Pommiin
First performance by: Kojo - 1982



Jos joku nakkaa ydinkakkaa kohta tänne Eurooppaamme
Niin mitä haastat, kun kaikki saastat sieltä kasvoillemme saamme
Jos joku viskaa pommin niskaan, niin sä tuskin huomaatkaan

(Nuku tuuti, aa... aa... aa... tuuti) 
(Nuku tuuti, aa... aa... aa... tuuti)
(Nuku tuuti, aa... aa... aa... tuuti)
(Nuku tuuti, aa... aa... aa... tuuti)

Pommiin, pommiin, nuku pommiin, niin on helpompaa
Nuku pom, nuku pom, nuku pommiin, se rauhoittaa

Liian kauan haaveillen nukuit alla taivaiden
Tukkaasi raastat vaan, käy neuvottelemaan

(Nuku tuuti, aa... aa... aa... tuuti)
(Nuku tuuti, aa... aa... aa... tuuti)

Ja nuku pommiin, pommiin, nuku pommiin, niin on helpompaa
Nuku pom, nuku pom, nuku pommiin, se rauhoittaa

Nyt jengi istuu, osallistuu neuvotteluseurantaan
Tieteen aivot ja toisten raivot, punoo salajuoniaan
Jos et sä herää tällä erää, niin et herää ollenkaan

(Nuku tuuti, aa... aa... aa... tuuti) 
(Nuku tuuti, aa... aa... aa... tuuti)
(Nuku tuuti, aa... aa... aa... tuuti)
(Nuku tuuti, aa... aa... aa... tuuti)

Nuku pommiin, pommiin, nuku pommiin, niin on helpompaa
Nuku pom, nuku pom, nuku pommiin, se rauhoittaa

Pommiin, pommiin, nuku pommiin, niin on helpompaa
Nuku pom, nuku pom, nuku pommiin, se rauhoittaa

Pretty Irish Girl
Composer(s): Lawrence Edward Watkin; Oliver Wallace
Performer(s): Sean Connery;
and various other artists



Have you ever seen the seagulls
A-flyin' o'er the heather
Or the crimson sails on Galway Bay
The fishermen unfurl

Oh, the earth is filled with beauty
And its gathered all together
In the form and face and dainty grace
Of a pretty Irish girl

Oh, she's my dear, my darlin' one
Her eyes so sparklin' full of fun
No other, no other
Can match the likes of her

She's my dear, my darlin' one
My smilin' and beguilin' one
I love the ground she walks upon
My pretty Irish girl

Have you ever seen the morning in
Kerry and Killarny
When the dew is on the hayrick
And ev'ry drop a pearl

When the geese are full of blarney
And the thrush is singing Gaelic
And standing in the doorway
Is a Pretty Irish Girl

Oh, she's my dear, my darlin' one
Her eyes so sparklin' full of fun
No other, no other
Can match the likes of her

She's my dear my darlin' one
My smilin' and beguilin' one
I love the ground she walks upon
My pretty Irish girl

When I'm parted from my darlin'
My sighs would sail a schooner
And when I cannot reach her, sure
My tears would turn a mill

Since she cannot be unkind
To any helpless creature
I think that I will marry me
A pretty Irish Girl

Oh, she's my dear, my darlin' one
Her eyes so sparklin' full of fun
No other, no other
Can match the likes of her

She's my dear my darlin' one
My smilin' and beguilin' one
I love the ground she walks upon
My pretty Irish girl

Softly As I Leave You
(Adapted from: Piano - 1960)
Composer(s): Antonio DeVita - Giorgio Calabrese - Hal Shaper
Performer(s): Matt Monro - 1962
and multiple other artists



Softly, I will leave you softly 
For my heart would break 
if you should wake and see me go

So I leave you softly
long before you miss me 
Long before your arms can beg me stay 
For one more hour 
or one more day

After all the years, I can't bear the tears to fall 
So, softly as I leave you there

Softly, long before you kiss me 
Long before your arms can beg me stay 
For one more hour 
or one more day

After all the years
I can't bear the tears to fall 
So, softly as I leave you there 
As I leave I you there 
As I leave I you there

Pretty Girl
Performer(s): Hogsnort Rupert's Original Flagon Band



The other day as I made my way
I heard the music start to play
Happy sound, people all around
I knew that I was here to stay
Suddenly, by the tree, goodness me...

Chorus:
Pretty girl, can I take you home
On a bright and sunny morning?
We danced all night in the pale moonlight
And now the day is dawning

She worked all week in a disco-teek
She looked at me but she didn't speak
The beat was good, and I knew I should
Have brought an extra pair of feet
What a day, so I say, hip-hooray!...
Chorus

"Come on, my lover, give us a kiss!"
(Boom boom boom boom)
Chorus

I had to weep, 'cause I had to keep
On dancing in a tired heap
The only sound was the aching ground
The band had all gone home to sleep
Day had come, gone the sun, oh what fun.....
Chorus x2

One Step Further
Composer(s): Simon Jefferies
First performance by: Bardo - 1982



One step further and I would have been there
 
Can't seem to get your attention no matter how I try
I just want you to prefer me to the other guys
So when you looked at me, you only turned away
So I walked up beside you
But I forgot all the things that I planned to say
I don't know if I tried to
 
I could have taken one step further
And I would have been there
You could have turned around
And hit me and I wouldn't have cared
All this time I didn't get anywhere
I could have taken one step further
And I would have been there
 
Ain't got the courage to speak when you're sometimes near
Well I can't seem to think of the things that a girl likes to hear
But when I saw you again, you were all alone
So I walked up beside you
But I was too shy to even ask you home
I don't know if I tried to
 
I could have taken one step further
And I would have been there
You could have turned around
And hit me and I wouldn't have cared
All this time I didn't get anywhere
I could have taken one step further
And I would have been there
 
If you read my letters or my telegrams
You'd have got around to asking me just who I am
'Cause you know I'm gonna get ya
I'm gonna get ya, I'm gonna get ya
 
One step further and I would have been there
You could have turned around
And hit me and I wouldn't have cared
All this time I didn't get anywhere
I could have taken one step further
And I would have been...
 
One step further and I would have been there
You could have turned around
And hit me and I wouldn't have cared
All this time I didn't get anywhere
 
One step further and I would have been there
You could have turned around
And hit me and I wouldn't have cared
All this time I didn't get anywhere
I could have taken one step further
And I would have been...
 
(One step further and I would have been there)
I could have tooken one step further
(One step further and I would've been there)
One step, one step

Pretty Folks
Performer(s): Nash The Slash



The sidewalk surface was dancing with tricks
In mad whirling circles they look for kicks
They book each other like drugs do their blood
And draw trumps and tramps when they're playing stud

And they're pretty folks, pretty folks bending the trend
Pretty folks, pretty folks, they'll never mend

Splitting their cells, looking for pills
They blow their change and they don't pay their bills
Modified modular spandex decay
Flocks of flash zeros with nothing to say

Chorus

In funhouse mirrors they don't seem to age
As they decompose in memory's cage
But total loss is not something to hide
When the last big sleep has started inside

Chorus

Softly
Composer(s): Neal Schon - Bob Marlette - Gregg Rolie - Glen Burtnik
Performer(s): Neal Schon



Soon the sun will shine into this window
Find your body laying next to mine
The world outside will wake up all around us
So kiss me while there's still a little time
It gives me the strength to face another day
When I hold you in my arms
(Softly)
When I hear you call my name
(Softly)
The tears fall, the tears fall like gentle rain
(Softly)
Softly in the morning light
(Softly)
You touch me and it feels so right

When the day dissolves into darkness
Nightfalls as far as you can see
Then I'll try to leave behind the madness
Once again you will come to me
It gives me the strength to know you belong to me
Give me all of your love

(Softly)
When I hear you call my name
(Softly) 
The tears fall like gentle rain
(Softly) 
Softly in the candlelight
(Softly) 
You touch me and it feels so right
(Softly) 
When I hear you call my name
(Softly) 
The tears fall like gentle rain
(Softly) 
Softly in the candlelight
(Softly) 
We're deep in love forever
(Softly) 
We're deep in love
(Softly)...

Pretty Flamingo
Composer(s): Mark Barkan
Performer(s): Manfred Mann;
and various other artists



On our block all of the guys call her flamingo
'Cause her hair glows like the sun
And her eyes can light the sky
When she walks she moves so fine like a flamingo
Crimson dress that clings so tight
She's out of reach and out of sight
When she walks by she brightens up the neighbourhood
Oh every guy would make her his if he just could
If she just would

Some sweet day I'll make her mine pretty flamingo
Then every guy will envy me
'Cause paradise is where I'll be

Pretty flamingo
Pretty flamingo

When she walks by she brightens up the neighbourhood
Oh every guy would make her his if he just could ha
If she just would

Some sweet day I'll make her mine pretty flamingo
Then every guy will envy me
'Cause paradise is where I'll be

Sha la la, la la la la 
Pretty Flamingo
