Twin Soliloquies
Composer(s): Oscar Hammerstein II - Richard Rodgers
Performer(s): Ezio Pinza & Emil Pinza
and multiple other artists



Nellie:
Wonder how I'd feel
Livin' on a hillside
Lookin' on an ocean
Beautiful and still

Emile:
This is what I need
This is what I've longed for
Someone young and smilin'
Climbin' up my hill!

Nellie:
We are not alike
Probably I'd bore him
He's a cultured Frenchman
I'm a little hick

Emile:
Younger man than I
Officers and doctors
Probably pursue her
She could have her pick

Nellie:
Wonder why I feel
Jittery and jumpy!
I'm like a school girl
Waitin' for a dance

Emile:
Can I ask her now?
I'm like a school boy!
What will be her answer?
Do I have a chance?

Happiness Is A Thing Called Joe
Composer(s): Harold Arlen; E.Y. "Yip" Harburg
Performer(s): Ethel Waters;
and various other artists



It seems like happiness is just a thing called Joe
He's got a smile that makes the lilac wanta grow
He's got a way that makes the angels heave a sigh
When they know little Joe's passing by

Sometimes the cabin's gloomy and the table's bare
Then he'll kiss me and it's Christmas everywhere
Troubles fly away and life is easy go
Does he love me good, that's all I need to know

Seems like happiness, is just a thing called Joe

Little Joe, little Joe, little Joe

Lots and lots of dough
To a racer
It's a GTO

To a sailor
It's the sea, sea, sea
To my mother
Why, it's me, me, me
To the birdies
It's the sky above
But, to my mind
It's the one I love

A Cockeyed Optimist
Composer(s): Oscar Hammerstein II - Richard Rodgers
Performer(s): Mary Martin
and multiple other artists



Nellie:
When the skies are brighter canary yellow
I forget ev'ry cloud I've ever seen
So they called me a cockeyed optimist
Immature and incurably green

I have heard people rant and rave and bellow
That we're done and we might as well be dead
But I'm only a cockeyed optimist
And I can't get it into my head

I hear the human race
Is fallin' on its face
And hasn't very far to go
But ev'ry whippoorwill
Is sellin' me a bill
And tellin' me it just ain't so

I could say life is just a bowl of Jello
And appear more intelligent and smart
But I'm stuck like a dope
With a thing called hope
And I can't get it out of my heart!
Not this heart...

Happiness
Composer(s): Allen Toussaint
Performer(s): The Pointer Sisters



I love the way you love to live
You got life, you're inspiration
I love the way that you do
Your heart's so freely
You're a sweet sensation
You're my invitation to happiness
You're full of sweet surprises, happiness
You fill my heart desire
More, more, more and more
And over and over again
Keep that goodness coming

I love the way you watch the world
Through kind eyes
That's why you're never sad, sad
Things don't bother you 
Like dos, don'ts and whys
You hold on to the good 
And you let the bad go by

Yeah, yeah
Happiness
I want your love forever
Happiness
Give me your love forever
More, more, more and more
And over and over again
Keep that goodness coming

Happiness
Give me your love forever
Happiness
Say you'll leave me never
More, more, more and more
And over and over again
Keep that goodness coming
Keep it coming, keep it coming
Keep it coming, coming
Keep it coming, keep it coming
Keep it, keep it coming

For A Thousand Years
Composer(s): Sašo Fajon - Primož Peterca
First performance by: Darja Švajger - 1999



Teardrops in my eyes, a dance of glistening rain
Falling from the sky, a carpet of the stars
Clouds of tenderness are fleeing in the light
Now it's here, the light for a thousand years
 
I tremble in your eyes, I tremble in your palms
Lie inside you deep, in dreams of yours I sleep
Caress you with my eyes and love you with my hands
Yes, I feel the light for a thousand years
 
I know you are my love
A touch, a kiss, your heart is mine
I know the light is always here
We kiss each other in its shine
 
I tremble in your eyes, I tremble in your palms
Lie inside you deep, in dreams of yours I sleep
Caress you with my eyes and love you with my hands
Yes, I feel the light for a thousand years
 
I know you are my love
A touch, a kiss, your heart is mine
I know the light is always here
We kiss each other in its shine 

Happiness
Composer(s): Leslie Bricusse



They say happiness
Is a thing you can't see
A thing you can't touch
I disagree

Happiness is standing beside
A can see him
He can see me
Happiness is whatever
You want it to be

Happiness is a high hill
Will I find it?
Yes, I will

Happiness is a tall tree
Can I climb it?
Watch, and see

They say happiness is
The folly of fools
Pity for me
One of the fools

Happiness is smiling upon me
Walking my way
Sharing my day
Happiness is whatever
You want it to be

Happiness is a bright star
Are we happy?
Yes, we are

Happiness is a clear sky
Give me wings
And let me fly
Let me fly
For, happiness
Is whatever you want it
To be

South Of The Border ((aka South Of The Border (Down Mexico Way))
Composer(s): Jimmy Kennedy - Michael Carr
First recording - Billy Cotton - 1939
Covered by multiple other artists



South of the border - down Mexico way
That's where I fell in love, where the stars above - came out to play
And now as I wander - my thoughts ever stray
South of the border - down Mexico way

She was a picture - in old Spanish lace
Just for a tender while, I kissed a smile - upon her face
'Cause it was fiesta - and we were so gay
South of the border - Mexico way

Then she smiled as she whispered "mañana"
Never dreaming that we were parting
Then I lied as a whispered "mañana"
'Cause our tomorrow never came

South of the border - I jumped back one day
There in a veil of white, by the candle light - she knelt to pray
The mission bells told me (ding-dong) - that I musn't stay
South of the border - Mexico way

Ay! Ay! Ay! Ay!Ay! Ay! Ay! Ay!Ay! Ay! Ay! Ay!Ay! Ay! Ay! Ay! 

Happiness
Composer(s): Clark Gesner



Happiness is finding a pencil
Sleeping in moon light
Telling the time
Happiness is learning to whistle
Tying your shoe 
For the very first time
Happiness is playing the drum 
In your own school band 
And happiness is walking hand in hand

Happiness is two kinds of ice cream
Knowing a secret
Climbing a tree 
Happiness is five different crayons
Catching a firefly
Setting him free
And happiness is being alone every now and then
And happiness is coming home again

Happiness is morning and evening
Daytime and nighttime too
For happiness is anyone and anything at all 
That's loved by you

Happiness is having a sister
Sharing a sandwich
Getting along
Happiness is singing together 
When day is through
And happiness is those who sing with you

Happiness is morning and evening
Daytime and nighttime too
For happiness is anyone and anything at all 
That's loved by you

Say It Again
Composer(s): Paul Varney
First performance by: Precious - 1999



Say it again...
 
I know I heard you right
I've been a-lyin' awake at night
Thinkin' about three words you said to me...
 
I know it's hard for you
Sometimes you gotta let the feeling through
I wanna know exactly how you feel
Ooh yeah
 
I've tried to be patient
And give you a little more time
Now I need to be sure
What's on your mind
 
Say it again (say it)
Say the words I heard you whisper
Say it again (say it)
When last night we were together
Lyin' next to me, you said to me
(Say it) say it again
 
I knew right from the start
You were livin' with a broken heart
But baby, I knew, could take some time to heal...
 
But now I must confess
The way you're fillin' me with happiness
Think that we could be startin' somethin' real
Ooh yeah...
 
I've tried to be patient
And give you a little more time
Now I need to be sure
What's on your mind
 
Say it again (say it)
Say the words I heard you whisper
Say it again (say it)
When last night we were together
Lyin' next to me, you said to me
(Say it) say it again
 
And I just need to be sure
That you're mine forever
All I'm asking you for
Is to tell me whether
I should be trustin' in you
Tell me if the words you whispered were true
Whoh
 
(Say it, say it, say it, say it...)
 
Say it again (say it)
Say the words I heard you whisper
Say it again (say it)
When last night we were together
Lyin' next to me, you said to me
(Say it)
 
Say it again (say it)
Say the words I heard you whisper
Say it again (say it)
When last night we were together
Lyin' next to me, you said to me
(Say it) say it again

Happiness
Composer(s): Bill Anderson
Performer(s): Bill Anderson



Happiness, happiness, the greatest gift that I posses
I thank the Lord I've been blessed 
With more than my share of happiness

To me this old world is a wonderful place
And I'm just about the luckiest human in the whole human race
I've got no silver and I've got no gold 
Just a whole lot of happiness in my soul

Happiness, happiness, the greatest gift that I posses
I thank the Lord I've been blessed 
With more than my share of happiness

Happiness to me is an ocean tide 
Or a sunset fading on a mountain side
Or maybe a big old heaven full of stars up above
When I'm in the arms of the one I love

Happiness is a field of grain 
Lifting its face to the falling rain
I can see it in the sunshine, I breathe it in the rain 
Happiness everywhere

Happiness, happiness, the greatest gift that I posses
I thank the Lord I've been blessed 
With more than my share of happiness

A wise old man told me one time 
That happiness is nothing but a frame of mind
I hope when you go to measuring my success
That you don't count my money count my happiness

Happiness, happiness, the greatest gift that I posses
I thank the Lord I've been blessed 
With more than my share of happiness

Happiness, happiness, the greatest gift that I posses
I thank the Lord I've been blessed 
With more than my share of happiness

Hanoi Hannah

Performer(s): Roger McGuinn



Hanoi Hannah averaged bout a man a day
and when she wasn´t working
she kept the coffee perking
for the guy who didn´t have to pay
On Hanoi Hanna workin´ all my blues away

My home is in Kentucky but lovin´ makes me want to stay
The captain says I´m lucky
but the chaplan says I ought to pray
And Hanoi Hanna workin´ all my blues away

Well I never would have thought
I´d get so lost out here
Smokin´ marijuana and drinkin´ beer
and trying not to think about the time next year
when me and all my buddies gonna disappear
Hanoi Hanna workin´ all my blues away

Hanoi Hannah took her shoes and ran away
When I hold her I was headin´
to have myself a weddin´
to my baby in the U.S.A.
Good-bye Hannah I really don´t know what to say

Well good-bye Hannah
Well good-bye Hannah
Well good-bye Hannah

South Coast
Composer(s): Lillian Bos Ross - Sam Eskin - Rich Dehr - Frank Miller
Performer(s): The Kingston Trio
and multiple other artists



South Coast, the wild coast, is lonely 
You may win at a game at Jolon
But the lion still rules the barranca 
and a man there is always alone

My name is Juan Hano de Castro 
My father was a Spanish grandee
But I won my wife in a card game 
to Hell with the Lords oversee

I picked up the ace 
I had won her! 
My heart, which was down at my feet
Jumped up to my throat in a hurry
Like a warm summer's day, she was sweet

South Coast, the wild coast, is lonely 
You may win at a game at Jolon
But the lion still rules the barranca 
and a man there is always alone

Her arms had to tighten around me 
as we rode up the hills from the south
Not a word did I hear from her that day 
or a kiss from her pretty red mouth

We came to my cabin at twilight 
The stars twinkled out on the coast
She soon loved the valley, the orchard
but I knew that she loved me the most

South Coast, the wild coast, is lonely 
You may win at a game at Jolon
But the lion still rules the barranca 
and a man there is always alone

Then I got hurt in a landslide 
with crushed hip and twice-broken bone
She saddled our pony like lightning 
rode off in the night, all alone

The lion screamed in the barranca 
the pony fell back on the slide
My young wife lay dead in the moonlight 
My heart died that night with my bride

South Coast, the wild coast, is lonely 
You may win at a game at Jolon
But the lion still rules the barranca 
and a man there is always alone

Load up the vittles, pickles, and hams
Melons, and cherry pie

Turkeys and yams
Pack in a big supply
Apples and peaches
Soda to sip
Cider is gonna flow
With a hey and a ho
And away we go
On a holiday in Hannibal, Mo…(zouree)!

Latch up the windows
Lock up the doors
Gotta get on the go
Line up the buggies
Wagons, and rigs
Meet all the folks you know
You bring the fiddle
You bring the drum
You bring the old banjo
And a hey and a ho
And away we'll go
On a holiday in Hannibal, Mo…(zouree)!

And half of the night
The road is rugged,
So hold on tight
No time for lollygaggin'
Everybody on the wagon

Driver:
Giddap!

All:
Get up the horses
Give `em the reigns
They know the way to go
Down by the river
Over the ridge
Into the old meadow

Oh, what a feelin'
Oh, what a day
Bright as a daisy glow
With a hey and a ho
And away we go
On a holiday in Hannibal, Mo…(zouree)!

Oh, what a feelin'

With a hey and a ho
And away we go
On a holiday in Hannibal, Mo…(zouree)!

Oh, what a feelin'
Oh, what a day
Bright as a daisy glow
With a hey and a ho
And away we go
On a holiday in Hannibal, Missouri

No Quiero Escuchar
First performance by: Lydia - 1999



Hace tiempo que ocultas la verdad
Te traiciona tu tenue ingenuidad al hablar
¿A quién tratas de engañar?

Vi dos sombras saliendo de un portal
Seguí los pasos cómplice de la oscuridad
Dura realidad, oh yeah
Sentí morir al verla abrazándote

No, no quiero escuchar
Tu voz susurrar que me has querido
Sé cual es la verdad
Qui se confiar y me has mentido

Ahora dices que fue una confusión
Sólo celos, fruto de me imaginación
Partiste mi vida en dos
Oh yeah, sentí morir al verla abrazándote

No, no quiero escuchar
Tu voz susurrar que me has querido
Sé cual es la verdad
Qui se confiar y me has mentido

(No), no
(No quiero escuchar), no quiero escuchar
(Tu voz susurrar), susurrar
(Que me has querido)
Sé cual es la verdad
Qui se confiar y me has mentido

No quiero escuchar

South City Midnight Lady
Composer(s): Patrick Simmons
Performer(s): The Doobie Brothers



Up all night I could not sleep
The whiskey that I drank was cheap
With shakin' hands I went and I lit up my last cigarette
Well the sun came, night had fled
And sleepy eyed I reached my bed
I saw you sleepy dreamin' there all covered and warm 

South City midnight lady
I'm much obliged indeed
You sure have saved this man whose soul was in need
I thought there was no reason
For all these things I do
But the smile that sent out returned with you 

When day has left the night behind
And shadows roll across my mind
I sometimes find myself alone out walkin' the street
Yes, and when I'm feelin' down and blue
Then all I do is think of you
And all my foolish problems seem to fade away 

South City midnight lady
I'm much obliged indeed
You sure have saved this man whose soul was in need
I thought there was no reason
For all these things I do
But the smile that sent out returned with you

Hank Williams, You Wrote My Life
Composer(s): Paul Craft
Performer(s): Moe Bandy; Paul Craft



Refrain:
You wrote Your Cheatin' Heart about
A gal like my first ex-wife
You Moan The Blues for me and for you
Hank Williams, You Wrote My Life

The Cold, Cold Heart and a doubtful mind
I have known a few myself
And the gal that loved me Half As Much
As she loved somebody else

Refrain:

I've heard that blue old whipporwill, too
And the Lonesome Whistle whine
I know that feel; so cold, so real
When The Blues Come Around at midnight

We've never met, I know and yet
I know you well, My Friend
And if ever I, get to heaven on high
I hope you'll shake my hand

Refrain:
