A Ray Of Hope
Composer(s): Eddie Brigati - Felix Cavaliere
Performer(s): The Rascals; Soul Generation



Most people got soul if they wanna try
Let love be your goal and let it fly
Cause it's easy to hate and to draw a line
But error is human forgiveness is divine

I know a lot of people who think like me
That this world can be a place that's filled with harmony
First there's a lot of things we've got to rearrange
Put an end to hate and lies
So peace can come and truth shall reign
As long as there is a ray of hope

Lord, I don't mind going out and doin' my work
Light up the way to brotherhood
Help us to make His dream understood

Sometimes the road gets a little bit rough
Your strength is all gone, you had enough
But there's people who win without making fists
Our world won't survive lest we think like this

I can't imagine any greater need
To treat each other as we'd like to be
It's a gas just knowing what is yet to come
Not unless we get together
Got to get together one by one

As long as there is a ray of hope
Lord, I don't mind goin out and doin my work
Light up the way to brotherhood
I got to keep on searchin, keep on searchin
Till I find out
Keep on searchin, keep on searchin
Till I find out
Keep on searchin, keep on searchin
Till I find out

Gonna take a little look way down inside
Gotta find out Lord, why I'm alive
We'll pray for a day when all men are free
And people can live like they're meant to be
Meanwhile it's all up to you and me
Start working together towards this dream

As long as there is a ray of hope
Lord, I don't mind goin out and doin my work
Light up the way to brotherhood
Help us to make His dream understood
As long as there is a ray of hope
I got to wait my turn till I can vote
As long as there is a ray of hope

Hustled Down In Texas
Composer(s): Johnny Winter
Performer(s): Johnny Winter



You know I hustled down in Texas, went to Chicago too
Well! hustled down in Texas, went to Chicago too
You know wouldn't nobody let me do what I want to do

You know I travel 'round in Georgia
I made the southern scene
I traveled 'round in Georgia
I made the southern scene
Just trying to find somebody, a friend who's deal was clean

Use me for your fool
Sign on the dotted line
Don't ask questions, stupid, cause your southern can is mine

Hustled down in Texas, went to Chicago too
Wouldn't nobody let me do what I want to do

Ahhh baby, don't try jiving me no more 
Ahhh baby baby, don't try jiving no more 
'Cause I'm hip to your jiving, down the road I go 

Listen to me people
Try to understand
Can't get good from evil, so do the best you can
I want to tell you people
Please try to understand 
You know you can't get good from evil so do the best you can

You know I hustled down in Texas, went to Chicago too
Yeah! hustled down in Texas, went to Chicago too
Wouldn't nobody let me do what I want to do

A Ratos
Performer(s): Pablo Guerrero



A ratos de tu cuerpo
brotaba la alegría
iluminaba todo
con la luz de harina

A ratos la tristeza
brotaba de tu cuerpo
y todo lo anochecen
sombras de fuego

Por largas avenidas
a ratos caminamos
dices que un tren oscuro
te anda llamando

Lumbres enloquecidas
me dices que te llaman
No mires nunca, niña
pozos sin agua

Husky Dusky Day
(Traditional)
Performer(s): Elvis Presley



Marchin’ across the green grass, green grass, green grass
Marchin’ across the green grass on a husky dusky day
(We’re marchin’ off to get married married married)
We’re marchin’ off to get married on a husky dusky day
You’re awful dusty and ragged ragged ragged
You’re awful dusty and ragged this husky dusky day
(I’m just as good as you are, you are, you are)
I’m just as good as you are this husky dusky day
I’ll climb through your window, window, window
I’ll climb through your window this husky dusky day
(I’ll lock and bar the window, window, window)
I think your off the key now (I know and I just can’t help it)

A Railroad Bum 
Composer(s): J.A. Balthrop
Performer(s): Jim Reeves; Buddy Cagle



I used to be a railroad bum
A-livin' on the go
I rode freights from Canada
Down to Mexico
From sunny Cal to Minnesota
Where the ripplin' waters fall
I never seemed to have a dime
But I had myself a ball

Singin' hi le hi lo he-li-li-le-li-lo
I used to ba a railroad bum
But I'm not anymore

I walked in the Silver Dollar
In Reno one night
I dropped a quarter in a one-armed bandit
The lemons lined up right
Took my winnin's then played poker
And I won ten thousand more
I used to be railroad bum
But I'm not anymore

Singin' hi le hi lo he-li-li-le-li-lo
I used to ba a railroad bum
But I'm not anymore

When cotton's white in Tennessee
And shrimp boats sail in Maine
Each pickin' time
Soon you'll find me
Ridin' a Georgia train
'Cause I get restless when I'm still
I guess I always will 
Wanna keep travellin' all my life
Over another hill

Singin' hi le hi lo he-li-li-le-li-lo
I used to ba a railroad bum
But I'm not anymore

Singin' hi le hi lo he-li-li-le-li-lo
I used to ba a railroad bum
But I'm not anymore

Hush-A-Bye Island
Composer(s): Harold Adamson; Jimmy McHugh
Performer(s): Frank Sinatra



Close your eyes, my little darling 
'cause it's time to drift away
To Hush-a-bye Island on Rock-a-bye Bay
Buy a candy-coated mountain, you have lots of time to play
On Hush-a-bye Island on Rock-a-bye Bay
You can take the Toy-Town Trolley and meet the jolly Times Express
No one there is melancholy, it's an isle of happiness
Don't you keep your dreamboat waiting, hope you have a pleasant stay
On Hush-a-bye Island on Rock-a-bye Bay
You can take the Toy-Town Trolley and meet the jolly Times Express
No one there is melancholy, it's an isle of happiness
Don't you keep your dreamboat waiting, hope you have a pleasant stay
On Hush-a-bye Island on Rock-a-bye Bay

The Ragpicker's Dream
Composer(s): Mark Knopfler
Performer(s): Mark Knopfler



When Jack Frost came for Christmas
With a brass monkey date
The rail-king and the scarecrow
Hopped a florlda freight
And they blew on their paper cups
And stared through the steam
Then they drank half a bottle
Of ragpicker's dream where

The whiskey keeps following
Cold pitchers of beer
Me and my associate
Like the clientele here get
The onions and the 'taters
Rib-eyes on the grill
Toothpicks and luckies
And a coffee refill as

The rail-king lay rocking
He was leaving the ground
Then he was flying like santa claus
Over the town where
He came to the window
Of a house by a stream
It was a family christmas
In the ragpicker's dream there

Were kids at the table
All aglow in the light
Music in the wintertime
Sure carries at night there
Was turkey and gravy
Pie and ice-cream
And gifts for each and everyone
In the ragpicker's dream where

The red-eye keeps tumbling
In our glasses of beer
Me and my associate
Like the service in here there's
A ten for your trouble
You have beautiful hair
Make the last one two doubles
It's a cold one out there where

The scarecrow and the rail-king
Have started to dance
But a nightstick and a billyclub
Won't give peace a chance here
I think they went thataways
Your song and dance team
Heading home for the holidays
With the ragpicker's dream on

His knees like a fighter
The rail-riding king
Like a sack of potatoes
Like a bull in the ring where
The scarecrow falls over
With a tear in the seam
Home for the rover
In the ragpicker's dream where

The red-eye keeps tumbling
Like tears in our beer
Me and my associate
Like the ambience here where
They cornered two castaways
In a white flashlight beam
Merry christmas and happy days
In the ragpicker's dream

À Quoi Ça Sert L'amour?
Composer(s): Michel Emer
Performer(s): Edith Piaf & Theo Sarapo 
and multiple other artists



À quoi ça sert l’amour?
On raconte toujours
Des histoires insensées
À quoi ça sert l’amour?

L’amour ne s’explique pas!
C’est une chose comme ça!
Qui vient on ne sait d’où
Et vous prend tout à coup

Moi, j’ai entendu dire
Que l’amour fait souffrir
Que l’amour fait pleurer
À quoi ça sert d’aimer?

L’amour, ça sert à quoi?
À nous donner d’la joie
Avec des larmes aux yeux…
C’est triste et merveilleux!

Pourtant on dit souvent
Que l’amour est décevant
Qu’il y a un sur deux
Qui n’est jamais heureux…

Même quand on l’a perdu
L’amour qu’on a connu
Vous laisse un gout du miel 
L’amour c’est éternel!

Tout ça c’est très joli
Mais quand tout est fini
Il ne vous reste rien
Qu’un immense chagrin…

Tout ce qui maintenant
Te semble déchirant
Demain, sera pour toi
Un souvenir de joie!

En somme, si j’ai compris
Sans amour dans la vie
Sans ses joies, ses chagrins
On a vécu pour rien?

Mais oui! Regarde-moi!
À chaque fois j’y crois!
Et j’y croirait toujours…
Ça sert à ça l’amour!

Mais toi, tu es le dernier!
Mais toi’ tu es le premier!
Avant toi y avait rien
Avec toi je suis bien!

C’est toi que je voulais!
C’est toi qu’il me fallait!
Toi que j’aimerais toujours…
Ça sert à ça l’amour!

Hush, Little Baby
(German Version: Sch ... Kleines Baby Wein Nicht Mehr)
(Traditional)



Hush, little baby, don't say a word
Mama's gonna buy you a mockin'bird

If that mockin'bird don't sing
Mama's gonna buy you a diamond ring

If that diamond ring turns to brass
Mama's gonna buy you a looking glass

If that looking glass gets broke
Mama's gonna buy you a billy goat

If that billy goat don't pull
Mama's gonna buy you a cart and mule

If that cart and mule turn over
Mama's gonna buy you a dog named Rover

If that dog named Rover won't bark
Mama's gonna buy you a horse and cart

If that horse and cart fall down
You'll be the sweetest little baby in town

À Quoi Ça Sert?
Composer(s): Françoise Hardy
Performer(s): Françoise Hardy



Comme toi j'ai un cœur qui ne peut rien promettre
à qui l'amour fait peur mais qui t'aime peut-être
à quoi ça sert de le cacher
à quoi ça sert d'y échapper?

Je n'ai rien à t'offrir que ce que mes yeux voient
tu ne veux pas souffrir mais qui ne souffre pas?
à quoi ça sert de l'éviter
à quoi ça sert de t'en aller?

À rester dans ta tour d'ivoire
en broyant du rose ou du noir
tout seul - tout seul

Comme on n'est pas très malheureux
on oublie qu'on n'est pas heureux
tout seul - tout seul

Je n'ai que les étoiles et rien d'autre pour toi 
si l'on doit se faire mal c'est la vie qui veut ça
à quoi ça sert de rester seul
à quoi ça sert de vivre seul

Je n'ai que les étoiles et rien d'autre pour toi
si l'on doit se faire mal c'est la vie qui veut ça
à quoi ça sert de rester seul
à quoi ça sert de vivre seul tout seul..

Hush, Hush, Sweet Charlotte
Composer(s): Mack David; Frank DeVol
Performer(s): Patti Page;
Bette Davis; Al Martino; Gerry Mulligan



Chorus: 

Hush hush, sweet Charlotte
Charlotte, don't you cry
Hush hush, sweet Charlotte
He'll love you till he dies

Oh, hold him darling
Please hold him tight
And brush the tear from your eye
You weep because you had a dream last night
You dreamed that he said goodbye

He held two roses within his hand
Two roses he gave to you
The red rose tells you of his passion
The white rose his love so true

Chorus

And every night after he shall die
Yes every night when he's gone
The wind will sing to you this lullaby
Sweet Charlotte was loved by John

Chorus

A Quiet Place To Live
Composer(s): Carole King
Performer(s): Carole King



All I want is a quiet place to live
WHere I can enjoy the fruits of my labor
Read the paper
And not have to cry out loud

In my mind I can see it crystal clear
Sharing my dreams with the people around me
Now they surround me
ANd I'm just a part of the crowd

What will become of us
What about the children
What will they do to us next time around
What will the amswer be
What will it mean to me
When are they gonna see we're underground
Here underground

And all I want is a quiet place to live
WHere I can be free in a world of my making
Instead of taking what they decided to give
I wouldn't want what they have-no
If I could only find a quiet place to live

Hush! Here Comes A Whizz Bang



Hush, here comes a whizz bang
Hush, here comes a whizz bang
Now, you soldier men, get down those stairs
Down in your dugouts and say your prayers
Hush, here comes a whizz bang
And it's making straight for you
And you'll see all the wonders of no-man's-land
If a whizz bang hits you

A Quien Pueda Interesar
Performer(s): Silvio Rodríguez



¿Cómo andan, hola, que tal?
(a quien pueda interesar)
¿Cómo andan, hola, que tal?
¡soy feliz de regresar!

Ahora heme aquí
entre ustedes en la vida otra vez
Ahora heme aquí
con un poco de agua fría en los pies
Ya regresé
y el que quiera puede ya sonreír
el que quiera puede irse a llorar
y al que quiera puede darle igual

Estoy hablando a quien pueda interesar
pero ante todo tengo que ordenar mis cosas
Es que he traído demasiados documentos
sobre el mar
es que he traído demasiada inspiración
Estoy hablando a quien pueda interesar
pero ante todo tengo que coger respiro
He de llenarme nuevamente
de las cosas, de la gente
antes de hacerme aplaudir o censurar

¿Cómo andan, hola, que tal?

¿Cómo andan, hola, que tal?
¡soy feliz de regresar!

Ahora heme aquí
entre ustedes en la vida otra vez
Ahora heme aquí
con un poco de agua fría en los pies
Ya regresé
y el que quiera puede ya sonreír
el que quiera puede irse a llorar
y al que quiera puede darle igual

Estoy hablando a quien pueda interesar
pero ante todo abrazo a mis amigos
a alguna muchachita que se muestre
amable en el saludo
a la familia, a los vecinos y demás
Estoy hablando a quien pueda interesar
pero ante todo estoy besando el suelo
Como se puede ver
regreso con color en las mejillas
- y si pudiera verse el alma habría más -
Me regocija verlo todo junto otra vez
para vivir un poco más allá
para morir un poco más también

Estoy hablando a quien pueda interesar

La Gente Me Señala, Me Apunta Con El Dedo
Susurra A Mis Espaldas Y A Mi Me Importa Un Bledo
¿que Mas Me Da Si Soy Distinta A Ellos?
No Soy De Nadie, No Tengo Dueño

Yo Se Que Me Critican, Me Consta Que Me Odian
La Envidia Les Corroe, Mi Vida Les Agobia
¿por Que Sera? Yo No Tengo La Culpa
Mis Circunstancias Les Insultan

Mi Destino Es El Que Yo Decido
El Que Yo Elijo Para Mi
¿a Quien Le Imorta Lo Que Yo Haga?
¿a Quien Le Importa Lo Que Yo Diga?
Yo Soy Asi Y Asi Seguire, Nunca Cambiare

Quiza La Culpa Es Mia Por No Seguir La Norma
Ya Es Demasiado Tarde Para Cambiar Ahora
Me Mantendre Firme En Mis Convicciones
Reforzare Mis Posiciones

Mi Destino Es El Que Yo Decido
El Que Yo Elijo Para Mi
¿a Quien Le Imorta Lo Que Yo Haga?
¿a Quien Le Importa Lo Que Yo Diga?
Yo Soy Asi Y Asi Seguire, Nunca Cambiare

Do my eyes deceive me?
Am I back in your arms?
Away from all harm?

It's like a dream to be with you again
Can't believe that I'm with you again

I missed you and I must admit
I kissed a few and once did sit
On Ivor the Engine Driver's lap
And later with him, had a nap

You are forgiven, you are forgiven, you are forgiven ... (ad lib)

You are forgiven

Husbands And Wives
Composer(s): Roger Miller
Performer(s): Roger Miller;
and various other artists



Two broken hearts, lonely, looking like houses
Where nobody lives,
Two people each having so much pride inside
Neither side forgives. 
The angry words spoken in haste
Such a waste of two lives
It's my belief pride is the chief cause
In the decline in the number of husbands and wives

A woman and a man, a man and a woman
Some can, some can't and some can

Two broken hearts, lonely, looking like houses
Where nobody lives
Two people each having so much pride inside
Neither side forgives
The angry words spoken in haste
Such a waste of two lives
It's my belief pride is the chief 'cause
In the decline in the number of husbands and wives

Husbands and wives
