    Worn Down Piano
    Originally performed by: Mark & Clark Band



    Each Tuesday morning, they'd all stand in line
    the auction would open promptly at nine
    The gavel came down on the auctioneer's block
    and the bidding began on a grandfather's clock

    Next up for bids in the rear of the room
    a piano worn down and a bit out of tune.
    Who'll start the bidding?, the auctioneer cried
    No voices rang out, so just put it aside

    Shouts filled the room and the auction went on
    when the cries of the crowd were stopped by a song
    Everyone turned to the rear of the room
    to that worn down piano, a bit out of tune

    Oh the days long ago when the crowds came around
    to hear that piano ring out with sound
    but the crowds have all gone and the symphony's through
    and the piano cries out: 'let me play once for you'

    A man with a torn coat and a hole in one shoe
    sat playing the song that nobody knew
    The music rang out and that song filled the room
    from that worn down piano, a bit out of tune

    Then from the crowd a man shouted a bid
    One thousand dollars for that piano I'll give
    Two thousand, Three thousand, and the bidding went on
    as the man in the torn coat kept playing that song

    The bidding grew tense each bid more and more
    'til the five thousand figure rang out from the floor
    the man in the torn coat just sat there and stared
    playing that song as if no-one were there

    Oh the days long ago when the crowds came around
    to hear that piano ring out with sound
    but the crowds have all gone and the symphony's through
    and the piano cries out: let me play once for you

    The man in the torn coat played as if to say
    I too want you, piano but I've nothing to pay
    I'd give all I own if you could be mine
    but all I can bid is this bottle of wine

    The sound of the gavel rang out through the air
    the auctioneer cried: Top that bid if you dare
    Just give him the piano, maestro play on
    but where has the man, in the torn coat gone?

    It's a quarter past five and the bidding is done
    everything's sold and now leave one by one
    The auction is over and left in that room
    is that worn down piano, still a bit out of tune

    Oh the days long ago when the crowds came around
    to hear that piano ring out with sound
    but the crowds have all gone and the symphony's through
    and the piano cries out: let me once play for you

    Worms



    Nobody likes me, everybody hates me
    Think I'll go and eat worms
    Long thin skinny ones
    Big fat juicy ones
    See how they wriggle and squirm

    Bite their heads off
    Suck their blood out
    Throw their skins away
    Nobody knows how much I thrive
    On worms three times a day

    Long thin skinny ones slip down easily
    Big fat juicy ones stick
    Hold your head back
    Squeeze their tail
    And their juice just goes drip, drip

    Everybody's trying to say I'm wrong
    I just wanna be back where I belong
    world turning......
    I gotta get my feet back on the ground
    world turning.......
    everybody's got me down
    maybe I'm wrong, but who's to say what's right?
    I need somebody to help me thru the night

    World On A String
    Composer(s): Neil Young
    Originally performed by: Neil Young
    Covered by: Nils Lofgren



    You know I lose, you know I win
    you know I call for the shape I'm in
    It's just a game you see me play
    only real in the way that I feel from day to day

    Although the answer is not unknown
    I'm searchin', searchin', and how I've grown
    It's not all right to say goodbye
    and the world on a string doesn't mean a thing

    No, the world on a string doesn't mean a thing
    It's only real in the way that I feel from day to day
    Day to day

    World Of Pain
    Composer(s): Gail Collins; Felix Pappalardi
    Performer(s): Cream; Masaki Batoh



    Outside my window is a tree
    Outside my window is a tree
    There only for me
    And it stands in the gray of the city
    No time for pity for the tree or me

    There is a world of pain
    In the falling rain
    Around me

    Is there a reason for today?
    Is there a reason for today?
    Do you remember?
    I can hear all the cries of the city
    No time for pity for a growing tree

    World In Flames
    Spanish Title: Mundo En Llamas
    Performer(s): Pedro Aznar



    When your heart breaks up and you see only darkness
    When you no longer have any will or strength to go on
    When everything becomes a farce that you don't care to decipher
    Sinking in front of a beach
    with no lighthouse, no home, no final destination

    Walking amidst a thousand faces, between unspoken words
    The same doubt in their throats: how did they get here
    Everyone carries a shadow that they wish weren't there
    The pain that names everyone
    worse than loneliness is to lose humanity

    How to live in a world in flames
    without having your heart turn to ice
    How to write a new plot
    Feeling that as your life pulses, it lives in me

    When we no longer find anything or anyone else to conquer
    and our hunger, still dissatisfied, has nothing left to devastate
    To tie ourselves to the past, we need only remember
    but the future is more cumbersome
    and today is the time to think what kind of tomorrow will come

    How to live in a world in flames
    without having your heart turn to ice
    How to write more than just tragedy
    Feeling that as my life pulses, it lives in you

    World Away From Me
    Composer(s): Woody Guthrie
    Performer(s): Arlo Guthrie



    I've been keeping on the run
    I've been traveling with the sun
    I've been singing all my life and getting by
    Got to keep up with what's goung on
    In this place I've been so long
    And I guess I'll just keep singing all my life

    And it's so good to come home
    To a woman all alone
    Forgeting how hnd loneliness can be
    She will take me from this world
    Then she'll gently take the world away from me

    l'll be coming home at night
    While the kids are sleeping tight
    She'll be lit by firelight and looking fine
    And the kids jump out of bed
    Hello Daddy, what did you get
    Did you think of anything on down the line

    She'll be talking with her smile
    Saying, honey, wait awhile
    The kids have missed you, soon they'll be asleep
    She will take me from this world
    Then she'll gently take the world away from me

    Oh the prophets and the sages
    And the wise men through the ages
    All that's written down on pages from above
    Just can't adequately describe
    What I'm feeling here inside
    It's just useless to be living without love

    And I'll take her by her hand
    Just a woman and a man
    Without trying to understand what we should be
    She will take me from this world
    Then she'll gently take the world away from me

    (Chorus)
    Now, I found, that the world is round
    and of course it rains everyday

    Living tomorrow, where in the world will I be tomorrow?
    How far am I able to see?
    Or am I needed here?

    (chorus)

    If I remember all of the things I have done
    I'd remember all of the times I've gone wrong
    Why do they keep me here?

    Working On The Road
    Composer(s): Alvin Lee
    Performer(s): Ten Years After



    I've been working on the road about fifteen years
    Been blowing my mind, I've been blasting my ears
    Don't you know, babe?
    I've been sleeping all day and working all night
    I made a lot of money, but it don't feel right
    Don't you know, babe?

    Well, I've seen the world and it's seen me
    In a strange kind of way I guess I'm free
    Don't you know, babe?
    Well, I've seen it bad and I've seen it good
    But, now, I want to clear my blood
    Don't you know, babe?

    I've got a feeling for home
    Somewhere that I call my own

    Well, I tried to live the way I should
    I've shed some tears and sweated blood
    Don't you know, babe?
    And I think it's time I took a break
    'Cause I have took all I can take
    Don't you know, babe?

    I've got a feeling for home
    Somewhere that I call my own
    Take me home, babe

    Originally performed and made famous by: The Four Seasons
    Covered by various other artists



    I keep working my way back to you, babe
    With a burning love inside
    Yeah I'm working my way back to you babe
    And a happiness that died
    I let it get away
    Keep paying every day
    When you were so in love with me
    I played around like I was free
    Thought I could have my cake and eat it too
    And how I cried over losing you

    See I'm down and out
    And I ain't about to go
    Living my life without you
    Hey every day, I made you cry
    I'm begging girl, 'til the day I die

    I'll keep working my way back to you, babe
    With a burning love inside
    Yeah I'm working my way back to you, babe
    And a happiness that died
    I let it get away
    Keep paying every day

    I used to love to make you cry
    It made me feel like a man inside
    If I had been a man in reality
    Then you'd be here baby loving me

    Now my nights are long
    And only a lion could prowl
    Girl, I guess we're too slow
    Girl, but you're too proud
    And you won't give in
    But when I think about all I can't win

    I'll keep working my way back to you, babe
    With a burning love inside
    Yeah I'm working my way back to you, babe
    And a happiness that died
    I let it get away
    Keep paying every day

    My heart is kind of low
    I just gotta get back home

    I'm really sorry
    For acting that way
    I'm really sorry
    Ooh, little girl
    I'm really sorry
    For throwing away our love
    Sweet little girl
    I'm really sorry
    For making you cry
    I really need you
    Don't you hear me talking to you
    Really sorry
    For telling you lies
    For so long
    Oh please

    I'll keep working my way back to you, babe
    With a burning love inside
    Yeah I'm working my way back to you, babe
    And a happiness that died

    I'll keep working my way back to you, babe
    With a burning love inside
    Yeah I'm working my way back to you, babe
    And a happiness that died

    Working, working
    I'm really working
    Working baby
    Can't you see me working ...

    I tired to find How my heart

    Dear
    How could I be fooled just like the rest

    Fast car and your class ring
    Sad eyes and your ... ...
    I fell for the whole thing
    I don't regret for having met
    Up with a girl who Breaks hearts
    Like they were nothing at all
    I've done it too
    Now I know just what it feels like
    And just like I said I have no regrets

    Well it's about time to close...
    I hope you've had as
    much fun as we have!
    Don't forget the jam session Sunday!...

    Working Class Hero
    Composer(s): John Lennon
    Originally performed by: John Lennon
    Covered by various other artists



    As soon as you're born, they make you feel small
    By giving you no time instead of it all
    Til the pain is so big you feel nothing at all

    A working class hero is something to be
    A working class hero is something to be

    They hurt you at home, and they hit you at school
    They hate you if you're clever and they despise a fool
    Til you're so f***ing crazy you can't follow their rules

    A working class hero is something to be
    A working class hero is something to be

    When they tortured and scared you for 20 odd years
    Then they expect you to pick a career
    When you can't really function you're so full of fear

    A working class hero is something to be
    A working class hero is something to be

    Keep you doped with religion, and sex, and TV
    And you think you're so clever and classless and free
    But you're still f***ing peasants as far as I can see

    A working class hero is something to be
    A working class hero is something to be

    There's room at the top, they are telling you still
    But first you must learn how to smile as you kill
    If you want to be like the folks on the hill

    A working class hero is something to be
    A working class hero is something to be

    If you want to be a hero, well just follow me
    If you want to be a hero, well just follow me

    Bien au chaud au ventre de ma ville
    Protégé par de grands murs gris
    Une église et des pharmacies

    America America
    America America

    Hier encore j'étais tranquille
    Tout seul au centre d'une ville
    J'avais de la buée plein les yeux
    J'allais être un jeune homme sérieux

    America America
    America America

    Puis j'ai vu San Francisco Bridge
    Rallier l'univers en deux rives
    Oui quand j'ai vu San Francisco
    Ma ville est morte dans mon dos

    America America
    America America

    Ils avaient des voitures immenses
    Des murs en verre, des maisons blanches
    Ils avaient des cheveux partout
    Des filles qu'on suivrait à genoux

    America America
    America America

    Autour de moi, tout grandissait
    Je ne savais plus qui j'étais
    Les flics étaient de vrais géants
    Je voulais partir en courant

    America America
    America America

    Aujourd'hui, sur San Francisco Bridge
    Je vois l'univers en deux rives
    Mon cœur est à San Francisco
    Ma ville est morte dans mon dos

    America America
    America America

    and various other artists



    When I saw you I knew that I was gonna love you
    And everyday I thought of how I'm gonna love you
    Now you're here next to me
    And ecstasy is a reality
    I feel good when you are near
    I'm alive cause you are here
    Working on a groovy thing baby
    Working on a groovy thing
    Working on a groovy thing baby
    Let's not rush in we'll take it slow

    Before I met you I know my lips were only wasted
    Cause you have got the sweetest kiss I ever tasted
    Music moves us along
    Your arms around me are snug and warm
    Happiness is in my soul
    I'm about to lose all control
    Working on a groovy thing baby
    Working on a groovy thing
    Working on a groovy thing baby
    Let's not rush in we'll take it slow
    Working on a groovy thing

    Let us be lovers we'll marry our fortunes together
    I've got some real estate here in my bag
    So we bought a pack of cigarettes and Mrs. Wagner's pies
    And we walked off to look for America
    Cathy I said as we boarded a Greyhound in Pittsburgh
    Michigan seems like a dream to me now
    It took me four days to hitchhike from Saginaw
    I've gone to look for America
    Laughing on the bus playing games with the faces
    She said the man in the gabardine suit was a spy
    I said be careful his bowtie is really a camera
    Toss me a cigaret I think there's one in the raincoat
    We smoked the last one an hour ago
    So I looked at the scenary she read her magazine
    And the moon rose over an open field
    Cathy I'm lost I said though I knew she was sleeping
    I'm empty and aching and I don't know why
    Counting the cars on the New Jersey Turnpike
    They've all come to look for America
    All come to look for America

    Covered by various other artists



    It's a big job just gettin' by with nine kids and a wife
    I been a workin' man dang near all my life
    I'll be working
    Long as my two hands are fit to use
    I'll drink my beer in a tavern
    Sing a little bit of these workin' man blues

    I keep my nose on the grindstone, I work hard every day
    Might get a little tired on the weekend, after I draw my pay
    But I'll go back workin'
    Come Monday morning I'm right back with the crew
    I'll drink a little beer that evening
    Sing a little bit of these workin' man blues

    Hey hey, the workin' man, the workin' man like me
    I ain't never been on welfare, that's one place I won't be
    'Cause I'll be working
    Long as my two hands are fit to use
    I drink a little beer in a tavern
    Sing a little bit of these workin' man blues

    Sometimes I think about leaving, do a little bummin' around
    I wanna throw my bills out the window, catch a train to another town
    But I go back working
    I gotta buy my kids a brand new pair of shoes
    Yeah, drink a little beer in a tavern
    Cry a little bit of these workin' man blues

    Hey hey, the working man, the working man like me
    I ain't never been on welfare, that's one place I won't be
    'Cause I'll be working
    Long as my two hands are fit to use
    I drink a little beer in a tavern
    Sing a little bit of these workin' man blues

    Yeah, drink a little beer in a tavern
    Cry a little bit of these workin' man blues

    Covered by multiple other artists



    Me hueles a merengue y a bolero
    a caña y a café
    Me hueles a corrido y a charango
    carnavalito y miel
    Me hueles a maracas y a guitarras
    a gaucho solitario y a sabana
    a piel morena y sal
    Me hueles a canela y a banana
    herida siempre y siempre maltratada
    soñando libertad

    Coro

    América, América
    Me hueles a guayaba
    a cordillera helada
    a tierra verde y lluvia tropical
    me hueles a pradera y a eterna primavera
    me hueles a futuro y libertad (2)

    Me hueles a tabaco y a maíces
    a dátiles y a arroz
    Me hueles a inmigrantes q se fueron
    cantando una canción
    Me hueles a torrente y a quebrada
    a sangre campesina derramada
    para tu libertad
    Me hueles a mujer enamorada
    herida siempre y siempre abandonada
    soñando frente al mar

    Coro (2)

    America, America
