If I Give My Soul
Composer(s): Billy Joe Shaver
First release by: Billy Joe Shaver - 1993
Covered by multiple other artists



Down a dangerous road, I have come to where I'm standing
With a heavy heart, and my hat clutched in my hand
Such a foolish fool, God ain't known no greater sinner
I have come in search of Jesus, hoping he will understand

I had a woman once, she was kind and she was gentle
Had a child by me, who grew up to be a man
I had a steady job, till I started into drinking
And I started making music that went with the devil's band

Oh the years flew by like a mighty rush of eagles
My dreams and plans were all scattered in the wind
It's a lonesome life, when you lose the ones you live for
If I make my peace with Jesus will they take me back again

If I give my soul, will he cleanse these clothes i'm wearin'
If I give my soul, will he put new boots on my feet
If I bow my head and beg God for his forgiveness
Will he breathe new breath inside me and give back my dignity

If I give my soul, will he stop my hands from shaking
If I give my soul, will my son love me again
If I give my soul, and she knows I really mean it
If I give my soul to Jesus will she take me back again

If I give my soul to Jesus will she take me back again

Ô! Katy, Katy
Je revois souvent
Ce petit coin discret
Dans ce vieux restaurant
L'air, près de la mer
Les rumeurs du port
Dispensaient à la nuit
Bien plus de charme encore!

Je t'aimais, Katy
Je t'aimais déjà
Mais tous les mots d'amour
Restaient au fond de moi
Par délicatesse, Katy
Pour un premier soir
Et parce je pensais
Qu'on pourrait se revoir

Maintenant Katy
Que je suis parti
Vers d'autres horizons
Si loin de ton pays
Je puis te le dire, Katy
Même le gai soleil
De mon midi
N'a pas chassé ton nom
Si doux, du fond de mon esprit!

and multiple other artists



If I give my heart to you 
Will you handle it with care 
Will you always treat me tenderly 
And in every way be fair 

If I give my heart to you 
Will you give me all your love 
Will you swear that you'll be true to me 
By the light that shines above 

And will you sigh with me when I'm sad 
Smile with me when I'm glad 
And always be as you are with me tonight 

Think it over and be sure 
Please don't answer til you do 
When you promise all those things to me 
Then I'll give my heart to you 

And will you sigh with me when I'm sad 
Smile with me when I'm glad 
And always be as you are with me tonight 

Think it over and be sure 
Please don't answer til you do 
When you promise all those things to me 
Then I'll give my heart to you

Katy Daley
Composer(s): Ralp Stanley
Performer(s): The Stanley Brothers:
Roy Lee Centers; The Lonesome River Band



 With her old man she came from Tiperary 
In the pioneering days of '42 
Her old man was shot in tombstone City 
For the making of his good old mountain dew 

Come on down the mountain Katy Daley 
Come on down the mountain Katy do 
Can't you hear us calling Katy Daley 
We want to drink your good old mountain dew 

Wake up and pay attention Katy Daley 
For I'm the judge that's gonna sentence you 
All the boys in court have drunk your whiskey 
To tell the truth I like a little too 

So to the jail they took poor Katy Daley 
But pretty soon the gates were open wide 
Angels came for poor ole Katy Daley 
Took her far across the great divide

If I Fell
(French Version: Si Je Te Donne Mon Coeur - 1992)
Composer(s): John Lennon; Paul McCartney
First release by: The Beatles - 1964
Covered by multiple other artists



If I fell in love with you
Would you promise to be true
And help me understand
'cause I've been in love before
And I found that love was more
Than just holding hands

If I give my heart to you
I must be sure
From the very start
That you would love me more than her

If I trust in you oh please
Don't run and hide
If I love you too oh please
Don't hurt my pride like her
'cause I couldn't stand the pain
And I would be sad if our new love was in vain

So I hope you see that I
Would love to love you
And that she will cry
When she learns we are two
'cause I couldn't stand the pain
And I would be sad if our new love was in vain

So I hope you see that I
Would love to love you
And that she will cry
When she learns we are two
If I fell in love with you

Katy Did
Composer(s): Porter Wagoner
Performer(s): Porter Wagoner



Two sisters lived alone out in the country
Their names were Katy and her sister Liz
They farmed to raise the food that graced their table
Liz never went to town but Katy did

Katy went to town each Saturday morning
To sell the eggs and buy for her and Liz
Their only needs just some salt and sugar
They grew the rest, her and sister Liz

Liz never went to town like Katy did
Liz never knew a man, but Katy did
For I saw them one evening when they thought they were hid
And you should've seen the things that him and Katy did

I walked by Liz and Katy's house each evening
Through the woods on my way home from school
Then one evening Katy smiled and spoke so softly
As I stood there blushing like a fool

Then she asked me if I'd like to have some cookies
That she baked for her and sister Liz
Then as Katy took me in their kitchen
I never closed the door, but Katy did

She took my hand and my heart beat so wildly
It sound like coffee a perking with no lid
And I shook so bad, I even dropped my cookies
I didn't know of love, but Katy did

Liz never knew a man, but Katy did
She said it's lonely here with sister Liz
But I just kept on eatin' cookies, I was just a dumb kid
I wish I'd known of love back then like Katy did

Oh, I wish I'd known of love back then like Katy did

If I Ever Make You Cry 
Composer(s): Burt Bacharach; Hal David
Performer(s): Dionne Warwick



If I ever make you cry
Long as I live, may my eyes never smile again
If I ever make you cry
All through my life
May my lips never laugh again
And if you should find that I
Have been untrue, may I never spend a happy day
And may I never hear, somebody say
Tender word (like I love you)
A tender voice (say I need you)
I make a vow, right here and now
That I will live
To love you

If I ever make you cry
Long as I live, may the world turn away from me
If I ever make you cry - even once
All through my life, may my dreams never come to be
And if I should ever
Ever Break your heart
May I never, see the sun appear
And may I go through life, and never hear ah!
Tender voice, (say I love you), your precious voice
Say I need you
Come to my arms, my waiting arms, and softly say
You love Me!

Katy Did, Katy Didn't
From the film "Mr. Bug Goes To Town"
Composer(s): Hoagy Carmichael; Frank Loesser
Performer(s: George Formby;
The Four Marshals, Stan Freed & Pauline Loth



There's a burning, burning question
concerning Katy Brown
And there's a bit of a suggestion
on the way they talk in town

Who came to Sunday school with cherries on her lids
Katy did, (Katy didn't,) Katy did, (Katy didn't)
Katy did, (Katy didn't), Oh, she did

And who kissed the banker's boy and ran away and hid
Katy did, (Katy didn't), Katy did, (Katy didn't)
Katy did, (Katy didn't), Oh, she did

Gracious what a scandal, every other girl would cry
She can't hold a candle to somebody such as I

But who got the banker's boy and fifty thousand quid
Katy did, (Katy didn't), Katy did, (Katy didn't)
You can bet your life she did

And who made the football team break training in the spring
Katy did, (Katy didn't), Katy did, (Katy didn't)
Katy did, (Katy didn't), Katy didn't do a thing

And who dubbed the candy man for candy all the time
Katy did, (Katy didn't), Katy did, (no she didn't)
(She did), She didn't need a dime

Gracious ain't it awful, all the other girls would wail
Really it's unlawful why she ought to go to jail

But who got the banker's boy, the tall and handsome kid
Katy did, (Katy didn't), Katy did, (Katy didn't)
You can bet your life she did

Now who plays the clarinet and makes the darned thing wail
And who blows the trombone and he tells a woeful tale

Gracious ain't it awful, all the other band boys shout
He can't blow his trumpet now it's time to throw him out

And who plays the uke and nearly busted all his strings
(Georgie did), Georgie didn't, (Georgie did), No I didn't
You can bet your life he did

If I Ever Lose This Heaven
Composer(s): Pam Sawyer; Leon Ware
First release by: Quincy Jones - 1974
Covered by multiple other artists



If you're foolin', only foolin' 
All I ask is "Why?" 
If you're playin', all I'm sayin' 
Is feelings sure collide 
If you're lyin', keep on lyin' 
Don't tell the truth, don't you dare 
You can't drop me, 'cause you still got me 
After takin' me way up there 

Oh, oh, oh, oh 
If I ever lose this heaven 
If I ever, ever, ever lose this heaven 
Whoa, I'll never be the same 

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh 
If I ever lose this heaven 
If I ever, ever, ever lose this heaven 
Whoa, I'll never be the same 

When you're kind, extra kind 
Then suddenly you're crossed 
You're so moody, you get to me 
Still can't turn you off 
You're fascinating, more fascinating 
Than the dark side of the moon 
You're so exciting, that I'm re-writing 
The book of love called "You" 

Oh, oh, oh, oh 
If I ever lose this heaven 
If I ever, ever, ever lose this heaven 
Whoa, I'll never be the same 

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh 
If I ever lose this heaven 
If I ever, ever, ever lose this heaven 
Whoa, I'll never be the same 

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh 
If I ever lose this heaven ...

Performer(s): Hank Williams Sr.;
and various other artists



Verse 1:
Kaw-Liga was a wooden indian standing by the door 
He fell in love with an indian maid over in the antique store 
Kaw-Liga just stood there and never let it show 
So she could never answer yes or no 

Verse 2:
He always wore his sunday feathers and held a tomahawk 
The maiden wore her beads and braids and hoped someday he'd talk 
Kaw-Liga, too stubborn to ever show a sign 
Because his heart was made of knotty pine 

Chorus:
Poor old kaw-liga, he never got a kiss 
Poor old kaw-liga, he don't know what he missed 
Is it any wonder that his face is red? 
Kaw-Liga,that poor old wooden head 

Verse 3:
Kaw-Liga was a lonely indian, never went nowhere 
His heart was set on the indian maid with the coal black hair 
Kaw-Liga just stood there and never let it show 
So she could never answer yes or no 

Chorus:
Poor old kaw-liga, he never got a kiss 
Poor old kaw-liga, he don't know what he missed 
Is it any wonder that his face is red? 
Kaw-Liga,that poor old wooden head 

Verse 4:
Then one day a wealthy customer bought the indian maid 
And took her oh so far away, but old kaw-liga stayed 
Kaw-Liga just stands there as lonely as can be 
And wishes he was still an old pine tree 

Chorus:
Poor old kaw-liga, he never got a kiss 
Poor old kaw-liga, he don't know what he missed 
Is it any wonder that his face is red? 
Kaw-Liga,that poor old wooden head 

Kaw-liga, Kaw-liga Kaw-Liga....

Had ik dan een reden om
hier te zijn, in dit aards paradijs
wachtend op de ochtendzon?

stel nu dat jij niet bestond
hoezeer zou ik jou missen dan?
welke kleur, welke geur, geef ik dan
aan ‘t groots en grandioos portret
dat ik voor jou had klaargezet

stel dat jij verdwijnen zou
herinnering als een vage flard
als een flirt, hoe je kirt, en je lacht
alles wat ons samenbracht
wat waren wij toch soms verward...

stel nu dat jij niet bestond
had ik dan een reden om
hier te zijn, in dit aards paradijs
wachtend op de ochtendzon?

zeg mij dat je wel bestaat
en dat het slechts om dromen ging
die mij ’s nachts, overdag, en op straat
vervolgen maar dan plotseling
verdwijnen als een tinteling...

If I Ever Get A Job Again
Composer(s): Abel Baer; Sam M. Lewis
Performer(s): Dick Robertson



If I ever get a job again
I will never be a snob again
I’ll live within my means
Carry a dollar in my jeans
If I ever get a job again

If I ever get a break again
Brother, what I’ll do to stake again!
No turning out the light
Bidding my appetite good night
If I ever get a break again

I’ll get two rooms and a kitchenette
Furnished comfortably
With two rooms and a kitchenette
I’ll get a sweet somebody to move in with me!

If I ever get a job again
I know that two hearts will throb again
She told me with her eyes
We’ll be rehearsing lullabyes
If I ever get a job again

If I ever get a job again
I will never be a snob again!
I’m through with stocks and bonds
I’d rather spend it all on blondes
If I ever get a job again!

If I ever get my pay again
I’ll save it for a rainy day again
But let me tell you, bud
I’m gonna save up for a flood
If I ever get my pay again

I’ll get two suits and an overcoat
Like a millionaire!
Just two suits and an overcoat
And then when things get better, I’ll buy underwear!

If I ever get a job again
With my old friends I’ll hobnob again
What great fun it will be, saying
“Just have one more on me!”
If I ever get a job again

Etsin kunnes löydän sun
En lopettaa voi kuitenkaan
Miten rauhaton oon yhä vain
Jotain multa puuttunee

Kuten aamuisin päivä ja yö
Suutelevat toisiaan
Me jossain kohdataan

Etsin kunnes löydän sun
Ja tiedän toiveen täyttyvän
Ilman sua mitään mieltä ei ois
Kuljeskella yksinään

Yksin vielä huomiseen
Mä jaksan sillä löydän sun
Sinä myös ehkä etsien käyt
Kunnes tulee hetki tuo
Se kutsuu meitä luo

Etsin kunnes löydän sun

Olet syy miksi luovuta en
Vaikka joskus tuntuu niin

Sinuun tahdon uskoa
Ja etsin kunnes löydän sun
Kuten aamuisin päivä ja yö
Suutelevat toisiaan

I’ve got a twinkle in my eye
And a twinkle in my toe

Grin my best Sunday grin out

Thanks to the twinkle in my eye
And the twinkle in my toe
I find that life is just like pie
Wherever I go

Love is a gamble when your life is spent on the road
One night stands with the boys in the band really gets old
If I had my rathers I'd be with my lady at home
'Cause the lady with the flower in her hair turns my world on

Lady with the flower in her hair turns my world on
She knows the secret that keeps me coming back home
Life has a meaning, I found it when she came along
'Cause the lady with the flower in her hair turns my world on

The places I've travelled can be traced by the lines on my face
But I've yet to find something else to take its place
When misery lays heavy, I think of my lady at home
'Cause the lady with the flower in her hair turns my world on

Lady with the flower in her hair turns my world on
She knows the secret that keeps me coming back home
Life has a meaning, I found it when she came along
'Cause the lady with the flower in her hair turns my world on

The lady with the flower in her hair turns my world on

(Ding-dong, ding-dong)

It's Christmas time
And snow is on the ground
The leaves have fallen
And are spreaded around (Spreaded around)

Our love was bold
But now so very cold
We loved in our younger prime
And I'll love when I'm old

I sit alone in our dream cottage
And snow is on the ground
I'm sitting all alone and I'm wishing
That someday you'll come around

To love again
Though you're far away
And when you come to me
Please come back to stay

Ding-dong, ding-dong
Christmas time
