    I Lived So Fast And Hard
    Composer(s): Dolly Parton
    Performer(s): Porter Wagoner; Mel Tillis



    I was raised on cornbread and gravy
    And I slept in a cardboard box till I was nearly three
    I bathed myself in a muddy river runnin' by our shack
    By the time that I had reached thirteen I'd been through hell and back

    I've been thrown from pillar to post
    I've been banged around and scarred
    I've done so much I've seen so much
    And I've lived so fast and hard

    Mama died when I was young and I never knew my dad
    I never had the lovin' care that other children had
    I spent five years in an orphan's home, but I ran off one day
    And I hoboed an old freight train to San Francisco Bay

    I fought in the war, I've been in jail
    There ain't much I ain't done
    I'd lived as much as any man
    Before I was twenty one

    I've been thrown from pillar to post
    I've been banged around and scarred
    I've done so much I've seen so much
    And I've lived so fast and hard

    Breast Fed Yak; Controlled Bleeding; Novi Sad



    Yeah, c'mon

    When the music's over
    When the music's over, yeah
    When the music's over
    Turn out the lights
    Turn out the lights
    Turn out the lights, yeah

    When the music's over
    When the music's over
    When the music's over
    Turn out the lights
    Turn out the lights
    Turn out the lights

    For the music is your special friend
    Dance on fire as it intends
    Music is your only friend
    Until the end
    Until the end
    Until the end

    Cancel my subscription to the Resurrection
    Send my credentials to the House of Detention
    I got some friends inside

    The face in the mirror won't stop
    The girl in the window won't drop
    A feast of friends
    "Alive!" she cried
    Waitin' for me
    Outside!

    Before I sink
    Into the big sleep
    I want to hear
    I want to hear
    The scream of the butterfly

    Come back, baby
    Back into my arm
    We're gettin' tired of hangin' around
    Waitin' around with our heads to the ground

    I hear a very gentle sound
    Very near yet very far

    Very soft, yeah, very clear
    Come today, come today

    What have they done to the earth?
    What have they done to our fair sister?
    Ravaged and plundered and ripped her and bit her
    Stuck her with knives in the side of the dawn
    And tied her with fences and dragged her down

    I hear a very gentle sound
    With your ear down to the ground
    We want the world and we want it...
    We want the world and we want it...
    Now
    Now?
    Now!

    Persian night, babe
    See the light, babe
    Save us!
    Jesus!
    Save us!

    So when the music's over

    When the music's over, yeah
    When the music's over
    Turn out the lights
    Turn out the lights
    Turn out the lights

    Well the music is your special friend
    Dance on fire as it intends
    Music is your only friend
    Until the end
    Until the end
    Until the end!

    Your Mother's Eyes
    Composer(s): Mel Tillis
    Performer(s): Porter Wagoner; Mel Tillis



    My children come sit here and hold to my hand
    For I must tell you something that I don't understand
    Lately we've been living in the shadows of surprise
    For I'm not the only man in your Mother's eyes

    I can't say it's my fault and I won't say it's hers
    For I might have neglected when her need for me occured
    But we're still a family and must realize
    That I'm not the only man in your Mother's eyes

    No, I'm not the only man in her eyes anymore
    And soon she'll be leavin', walkin' out the door

    And things won't be easy with her not around
    And the shame that's now with us will be hard to live down
    So children bear with me, promise Daddy you'll try
    Since I'm not the only man in your Mother's eyes

    So children bear with me, promise Daddy you'll try
    Since I'm not the only man in your Momma's eyes

    When The Moon Comes Over The Mountain
    Composer(s): Howard Johnson; Harry Woods
    Performer(s): Kate Smith;
    and various other artists



    All by myself at twilight
    Watching the day depart
    And with the fading twilight
    Happiness fills my heart

    When the moon comes over the mountain
    Every beam brings a dream, Dear, of you
    Once again we stroll neath the mountain
    Through that rose-covered valley we knew

    Each day is grey and dreary
    But the night is bright and cheery
    When the moon comes over the mountain
    I'm alone with my mem'ries of you

    Each day is grey and dreary
    But the night is bright and cheery
    When the moon comes over the mountain
    I'm alone with my mem'ries of you

    Tennessee Stud
    Composer(s): Jimmie Driftwood
    First release by: Jimmie Driftwood - 1959
    Covered by multiple other artists



    Along about eighteen and twenty-five
    I left Tennessee very much alive
    I never woulda got through the Arkansas mud
    If I hadn't been a-ridin' on the Tennessee stud

    I had some trouble with my sweetheart's pa
    One of her brothers was a bad outlaw
    I sent her a letter by my Uncle Fud
    And I rode away on the Tennessee stud

    The Tennessee stud was long and lean
    The colour of the sun and his eyes were green
    He had the nerve and he had the blood
    And there never was a horse like the Tennessee stud

    One day I was a-ridin' through a beautiful land
    When I ran smack into an Indian band
    They jumped their nags with a whoop and a yell
    And away we went like a bat outta hell

    I circled their camp for a time or two
    To show 'em what a Tennessee horse can do
    Them Redskin boys couldn't get my blood
    'Cause I was a-ridin' on the Tennessee stud

    The Tennessee stud was long and lean
    The colour of the sun and his eyes were green
    He had the nerve and he had the blood
    And there never was a horse like the Tennessee stud

    We drifted on down into no man's land
    We crossed the river called the Rio Grande
    I raced my horse with a Spaniard bold
    Till I got me a skin full of silver and gold

    Me and a gambler we couldn't agree
    We got in a fight over Tennessee
    We jerked our guns, he fell with a thud
    And I got away on the Tennessee stud

    The Tennessee stud was long and lean
    The colour of the sun and his eyes were green
    He had the nerve and he had the blood
    And there never was a horse like the Tennessee stud

    Well I got as lonesome as a man can be
    A-dreamin' of my girl in Tennessee
    The Tennessee stud's green eyes turned blue
    'Cause he was dreamin' of his sweetheart too

    We loped right on across Arkansas
    I whupped her brother and whupped her Pa
    I found that girl with the golden hair
    And she was a-ridin' on a Tennessee mare

    The Tennessee stud was long and lean
    The colour of the sun and his eyes were green
    He had the nerve and he had the blood
    And there never was a horse like the Tennessee stud

    Stirrup to stirrup and side by side
    We crossed the mountains and the valleys wide
    We came to Big Muddy and we forded the flood
    On the Tennessee mare and the Tennessee stud

    A pretty little baby on the cabin floor
    A little horse colt playin' round the door
    I love the girl with the golden hair
    And the Tennessee stud loves the Tennessee mare

    The Tennessee stud was long and lean
    The colour of the sun and his eyes were green
    He had the nerve and he had the blood
    And there never was a horse like the Tennessee stud

    When The Midnight Choo Choo Leaves For Alabam'
    Composer(s): Irving Berlin
    Performer(s): Ethel Merman & Dan Dailey;
    and various other artists



    When the midnight choo choo leaves for Alabam'
    I'll be right there, I've got my fair
    When I see that rusty haired conductor man
    I'll grab him by the collar and I'll holler "Alabam'! Alabam'!"

    That's where you stop your train, that brings me back again
    Down home where I'll remain, where my honey lamb am
    I will be right there with bells, when that old conductor yells
    "All aboard! All aboard! All aboard for Alabam!"

    Composer(s): Milton Ager - Jack Yellen
    First release by: Lou Gold & His Orch. - 1927
    Covered by multiple other artists



    There she is! There she is!
    There's what keeps me up at night
    Oh, gee whiz! Oh, gee whiz!
    There's why I can't eat a bite
    Those flaming eyes! That flaming youth!
    Oh, mister oh, sister, tell me the truth...

    Ain't she sweet?
    See her walking down the street
    Now I ask you very confidentially
    Ain't she sweet?

    Ain't she nice
    Look her over once or twice
    Now I ask you very confidentially
    Ain't she nice?

    Just cast an eye in her direction
    Oh me, oh my, ain't that perfection

    I repeat
    Don't you think she's kind of sweet
    Now I ask you very confidentially
    Ain't she sweet?

    Tell me where, tell me where
    Have you seen one just like that
    I declare, I declare
    That sure is worth looking at

    Oh, boy, how sweet those lips must be
    Gaze on it, doggonit! Now answer me

    Ain't she sweet?
    See her walking down the street
    Now I ask you very confidentially
    Ain't she sweet?

    Ain't she nice?
    Look her over once or twice
    Now I ask you very confidentially
    Ain't she nice?

    Just cast an eye in her direction

    When The Lovelight Starts Shining Through His Eyes
    Composer(s): Brian Holland; Edward Holland Jr.; Lamont Dozier
    Performer(s): Diana Ross & The Supremes;
    Lorraine Silver; Dusty Springfield; The Zombies



    He gave me the eye
    But I just passed him by
    I treated him unkind
    But he didn't seem to mind

    I told him be on his way
    But not a word did he say
    He just stood there kind of bold
    While I acted cold

    But when the love-light starts shining through his eyes
    Made me realise I should apologise
    And when he placed a kiss upon my face
    Then I knew, Oh then I knew
    That he won my heart

    So I quickly apologised
    Hoping he hadn't changed his mind
    But not a word did he say
    So I turned to walk away

    But when the love-light starts shining through his eyes
    Made me realise how he felt inside
    And when he placed a kiss upon my face
    Then I knew, Oh then I knew
    That he won my heart

    When he asked could he walk my way
    I hoped sweet things he'd say
    Instead he smiled kind of nice
    As he held my hand kind of tight

    But when the love-light starts shining through his eyes
    Made me realise how he felt inside
    And when he placed a kiss upon my face
    Then I knew, Oh then I knew
    That he won my heart

    But when the love-light starts shining through his eyes
    Made me realise how he felt inside
    And when he placed a kiss upon my face

    Composer(s): Milton Ager - Jack Yellen
    Performer(s): Erasmo Carlos & Renato & seus Blue Caps - 1965



    No tempo da vovó
    Eu queria ser também
    Pra ver se o vovô, além da vovó
    Beijava mais alguém

    Vieram me contar
    Que o vovô era assanhado
    Por isso, andava sempre
    Com a vovó do lado

    Não tinha jeito
    De sair fora da linha
    Vovó dizia
    Que só a ela ele via

    Viveram sempre assim
    Até que eu nasci
    Mas, sempre bons conselhos
    Do meu vovô ouvi

    When The Lord Closes The Door
    (He Opens A Little Window)
    Composer(s): Kinky Friedman; Jeff Shelby
    Performer(s): Billy Swan; Kinky Friedman



    When I find myself alone in my house and in my head
    And I blow the candles out and I take myself to bed
    And I'm old enough to realize, ah, young enough to know
    When the Lord closes the door, he opens a little window

    When sleep closes my eyes and sends me searching for you
    And I'm feelin' blue as the sky without your love to carry me through
    And I'm weak enough to be afraid but strong enough to let it show
    When the Lord closes the door, he opens a little window

    Baby I'm a gypsy boy, I'll ride the night until
    I come to you like moonlight through your raggle-taggle window sill

    When you find yourself alone in your house and in your head
    And you blow the candles out and you take yourself to bed
    And you're old enough to realize, ah, young enough to know
    When the Lord closes the door, he opens a little window

    Don't you love the way she talks to you When she's feeling woman warm And don't it make you feel so good Just to know she's yours all by yourself Don't you like to see the sun go down When she's lying close to you And can't you feel her all around And when she loves you Ain't she something else Ain't she just some kind of lover in the morning Can't your arms feel the warmness where she slept Ain't she just all that you have ever wanted And when she loves you Ain't she something else Don't you like the way she clings to you And loves you 'till there's nothing left And tell me don't her lips taste good And when she loves you Ain't she something else Ain't she just some kind of lover in the morning Can't your arms feel the warmness where she slept Ain't she just all that you have ever wanted And when she loves you Ain't she something else When she loves me she's sure something else

    When the lights go on again all over the world
    And the boys are home again all over the world
    And rain or snow is all that may fall from the skies above
    A kiss won't mean "goodbye" but "Hello to love"

    When the lights go on again all over the world
    And the ships will sail again all over the world
    Then we'll have time for things like wedding rings and free hearts will sing
    When the lights go on again all over the world

    When the lights go on again all over the world
    And the ships will sail again all over the world
    Then we'll have time for things like wedding rings and free hearts will sing

    Performer(s): Kiss



    You were standin' and I was thinkin'
    Of all the time that I spend hangin' around
    Situation could only get better
    I got closer to see what I found
    In the mornin', movin' easy
    Everything seems so right
    But when the night comes, I've been dreamin'
    Dreamin' 'bout leavin' you one more time

    Girl, you gave me good love
    But it ain't quite right

    Mmm, no, I won't tell you
    That you're the only one for me
    And I'd be a liar if I promised
    I could give you every single thing you ever need

    You gave me good love
    But it ain't quite right

    Yeah, you gave me good love
    But it ain't quite right, mmm

    Lookin' back now seems so easy
    You were the best thing ever happened to me
    I can't complain
    It was worth every minute we had

    'Cause, you gave me good love
    But it ain't quite right

    Yeah, you gave me good love

    Throw me away
    You can treat me like trash
    But still I turn around babe

    You can send me far away
    Somewhere down on the track, now
    But just like a boomerang baby you know
    I'll come right back

    There ain't nothin' you can do, darlin'
    To stop me from lovin' you
    Oh, there's nothin' you can say, darlin'
    Little girl, to drive me away

    You can call me names
    In the presence of my friend
    That wouldn't hurt my feelin's
    You know that wouldn't mean a thing

    It's gonna take a miracle
    To drive me away
    I'll be around babe, until I'm old an' gray

    There is nothin' you can do babe
    To stop me from lovin' you
    Oh, there's nothin' you can say, little girl
    Darlin', to drive me away

    Oh, hahaha, come on, ya'all
    Well, alright

    You can play with my heart
    Like kids play with toys
    I wouldn't give a damn
    If ya tore it apart

    You can walk all over me
    Then treat me like dirt
    So much in love wit' cha darlin'
    I wouldn't even feel the hurt

    There is nothin' you can do, babe
    To stop me from lovin' you
    No, there's nothin' you can say, little girl
    Honey, to drive me away

    'Cause I'm satisfied, with the love ya give
    I love ya baby, an' I know it's for real
    It's gonna take a miracle to drive me away
    But I'll be lovin' ya darlin' until I'm old an' gray

    There is nothin' you can do babe
    To stop me from lovin' you
    Hey, there is nothin' you can say, little girl
    Honey to drive me away

    Woo! hoo-hoo!

    Well, alright!
    Um!
    Oh!
    Woo!
    Woo!
    Well, alright!

    When The King Enjoys His Own Again
    (Traditional)



    Let rogues and cheats prognosticate
    Concerning king's or kingdom's fate
    I think myself to be as wise
    As he that gazeth on the skies
    My sight goes beyond
    The depth of a pond
    Or rivers in the greatest rain
    Whereby I can tell
    That all will be well
    When the King enjoys his own again
    Yes, this I can tell
    That all will be well
    When the King enjoys his own again

    There's neither Swallow, Dove, or Dade
    Can soar more high or deeper wade
    Nor show a reason from the stars
    What causeth peace or civil wars
    The man in the moon
    May wear out his shoon
    By running after Charles his wain
    But all's to no end
    For the times will not mend
    Till the King enjoys his own again
    Yes, this I can tell
    That all will be well
    When the King enjoys his own again

    Full forty years this royal crown
    Hath been his father's and his own
    And is there anyone but he
    That in the same should sharer be?
    For better may
    The scepter sway
    Than he that hath such right to reign?
    Then let's hope for a peace
    For the wars will not cease
    Till the king enjoys his own again
    Yes, this I can tell
    That all will be well
    When the King enjoys his own again

    Though for a time we see Whitehall
    With cobwebs hanging on the wall
    Instead of gold and silver brave
    Which formerly was wont to have
    With rich perfume
    In every room,
    Delightful to that princely train
    Yet the old again shall be
    When the time you see
    That the King enjoys his own again
    Yes, this I can tell
    That all will be well
    When the King enjoys his own again

    Then fears avaunt, upon the hill
    My hope shall cast her anchor still
    Until I see some peaceful dove
    Bring home the branch I dearly love
    Then will I wait
    Till the waters abate
    Which now disturb my troubled brain
    Then for ever rejoice
    When I've heard the voice
    That the King enjoys his own again
    Yes, this I can tell
    That all will be well
    When the King enjoys his own again

    Keep Away From The Fellow Who Owns An Automobile
    Composer(s): Irving Berlin
    Performer(s): Ada Jones



    There's a certain flirtin' man with money in the bank
    The man I mean owns a machine, the kind you have to crank
    His great delight is to invite a girlie for a whirl
    In his machine and I just mean to kind o' warn each girl

    Keep away from the fellow who owns an automobile
    He'll take you far in his motor car
    Too darn far from your Pa and Ma
    If his forty horsepower goes sixty miles an hour say
    Goodbye forever, goodbye forever
    There's no chance to talk, squawk or balk
    You must kiss him or get out and walk
    Keep away from the fellow who owns an automobile

    Mary White went out one night in Harry's new machine
    They rode quite far when Harry's car ran out of gasoline
    The hour was late and sad to state no gas could Harry get
    The latest word I overheard is that they're walking yet

    Keep away from the fellow who owns an automobile
    He'll take you far in his motor car
    Too darn far from your Pa and Ma
    If his forty horsepower goes sixty miles an hour say
    Goodbye forever, goodbye forever
    There's no chance to talk, squawk or balk
    You must kiss him or get out and walk
    Keep away from the fellow who owns an automobile

    When The Heartache Is Over
    Composer(s): John Reid; Graham Stack
    Performer(s): Tina Turner; Vonda Shepard



    Once in a lifetime you find
    Someone to show you the way
    Someone to make your decisions
    And I let you lead me astray

    Who did you think you were fooling
    Said you were missing me blind
    But the truth is I knew you were lying
    You were using me time after time

    chorus
    When the heartache is over
    I know I won't be missing you
    Won't look over my shoulder
    'Cause I know that I can live without you

    Time to move on with my life now
    Leaving the past all behind
    I can make my own decisions
    It was only a matter of time
    Sometimes I look back in anger
    Thinking about all the pain
    But I know that I'm stronger without you
    And that I'll never need you again

    chorus

    When the heartache is over
    I know I won't be missing you
    Won't look over my shoulder
    'Cause I know that I can live without you

    chorus repeat

    When the heartache is over
    I know I won't be missing you
    Won't look over my shoulder
    'Cause I know that I can live without you
    When the heartache is over
    I know I won't be missing you
    Won't look over my shoulder
    'Cause I know that I can live without you
    Yeah I can live without you
    Oh I can live without you

    Ain't Nothing Like The Real Thing
    Composer(s): Nickolas Ashford - Valerie Simpson
    First release by: Marvin Gaye & Tammi Terrell - August 1968
    Covered by multiple other artists



    Ain't nothing like the real thing, baby
    Ain't nothing like the real thing
    Ain't nothing like the real thing, baby
    Ain't nothing like the real thing

    I got your picture hangin' on the wall
    It can't see or come to me when I call your name
    I realize it's just a picture in a frame

    I read your letters when you're not near
    But they don't move me
    And they don't groove me like when I hear
    Your sweet voice whispering in my ear

    Ain't nothing like the real thing, baby
    Ain't nothing like the real thing

    I play my games, a fantasy
    I pretend I'm not in reality
    I need the shelter of your arms to comfort me

    No other sound is quite the same as your name
    No touch can do half as much to make me feel better
    So let's stay together

    I've got some memories to look back on
    And though they help me when you phone
    I'm well aware nothing can take the place of you're being there

    So glad we got the real thing
    So glad we got the real thing
    Ain't nothing like the real thing, baby
    Ain't nothing like the real thing
    Ain't nothing like the real thing, baby
    Say it loud like you're proud
    Ain't nothing like the real thing
