    Quando eravamo piccoli
    sempre fuori pochi spiccioli
    sporchi duri e un po' ridicoli eravamo noi amici
    gatti neri in mezzo ai vicoli
    baci rubati dietro agli angoli
    sempre insieme indivisibili eravamo noi amici
    Alle nove e mezza
    sotto la sua porta
    lei alla finestra
    esco un'altra volta
    dai domani è festa
    andiamo a camminare un po' su e giù
    al mare su e giù al mare
    Quando eravamo piccoli
    strani a volte incomprensibili
    quasi sempre innamorati tra di noi
    sognavamo ad occhi aperti e a cieli limpidi
    sogni estivi ed impossibili
    sopra a una panchina a Rimini
    tutti e tre amici
    Mano nella mano
    facciamo una scommessa
    chi sputa più lontano
    hai fatto una promessa
    lo sai che io ti amo
    vabbè chi se ne frega
    vuol bene a me
    decide lei
    domani decidiamo
    fai un'altra scommessa
    lo sai che io la amo
    mi gira un po' la testa
    però non ci perdiamo
    e giù a dormire tutti e tre amici
    tutti e tre amici
    Poi ci accorgevamo
    solo verso sera che era tardi
    perché quando era buio era già tardi
    noi a casa non torniamo mai
    Tutti e tre sul treno
    forse troppo stanchi per parlarci
    era troppo bello addormentarsi
    tutti e tre amici
    Mano nella mano
    guardo il cielo da lontano
    chissà cosa saremo
    tutti e tre domani
    domani ci vediamo
    sotto la tua porta
    ciao lo sai che io ti amo
    che palle un'altra volta
    però non ci perdiamo
    poi a casa tutti e tre amici
    tutti e tre amici
    Eravamo piccoli
    ma veramente grandi senza limiti
    davvero liberi
    come non lo siamo stati più
    ora che siam grandi
    vedi in fondo come siamo piccoli
    divisi in mezzo a tanti e tutti simili
    adesso chissà dove è lei
    adesso dove è lei
    adesso

    Wynken, Blynken And Nod
    Composer(s): Lucy Simon
    Performer(s): Carly Simon



    Winkin' and Blinkin' and Nod one night
    Sailed off on a wooden shoe
    Sailed down a river of crystal light
    Into a sea of dew

    "Now where are you going and what do you wish?"
    The old moon asked the three
    "Well we're going out fishing for Herring fish
    That live in the beautiful sea"

    "And some silver and gold have we"
    Said, Winkin' and Blinkin' and Nod

    The old moon laughed and sang a song
    As they rocked in their wooden shoe
    And the wind that sped them all night long
    Ruffled the waves of dew

    While the little stars were the Herring fish
    That lived in the beautiful sea
    "Now cast your nets wherever you wish
    Never a feared are we"

    So sang the stars to the fishermen three
    Winkin' and Blinkin' and Nod

    All night long their nets they threw
    To the stars in the twinkling foam
    Then down from the skies came the wooden shoe
    Bringing the fishermen home

    T'was all so pretty a sight it seemed
    As if it could not be
    And some folks thought t'was a dream
    They dreamed of sailing the beautiful sea

    But I shall name you the fishermen three
    Winkin' and Blinkin' and Nod

    Now Winkin' and Blinkin' are two little eyes
    And Nod is a little head
    And the wooden shoe that sailed the skies
    Is a wee one's trundle bed

    So close your eyes while mother sings
    Of the beautiful sights that be
    And you will see the wonderful things
    As you rock in your misty sea

    Where the old moon rocked the fishermen three
    Winkin' and Blinkin' and Nod

    A Very Special Day
    Composer(s): Richard Rodgers - Oscar Hammerstein II
    Performer(s): Tommy Steele



    Am I building something up that really isn't there?
    Do I make a big romance of a small affair?
    Should I be more practical, as friends would have me be?
    Being practical is very hard for me

    I wake up each morning with a feeling in my heart
    That today will be a very special day
    I keep right on clinging to that feeling in my heart
    Till the winds of ev'ning blow my dreams away

    Later on at bedtime, when my world has come apart
    And I'm in my far from fancy negligee
    With a piece of toast to munch
    And a nice hot cup of tea
    I begin to have a hunch
    That tomorrow's going to be a very special day for me

    I wake up each morning with a feeling in my heart
    That today will be a very special day
    I keep right on clinging to that feeling in my heart
    Till the winds of ev'ning blow my dreams away

    Wuthering Heights
    Italian Title: Cime Tempestose
    Performer(s): Kate Bush
    Originally performed by: Kate Bush Covered by various other artists



    Out on the wiley, windy moors
    We'd roll and fall in green
    You had a temper like my jealousy
    Too hot, too greedy
    How could you leave me
    When I needed to possess you?
    I hated you
    I loved you, too

    Bad dreams in the night
    They told me I was going to lose the fight
    Leave behind my wuthering, wuthering
    Wuthering Heights

    Heathcliff, it's me--Cathy
    Come home
    I'm so cold!
    Let me in-a-your window

    Heathcliff, it's me--Cathy
    Come home
    I'm so cold!
    Let me in-a-your window

    Ooh, it gets dark!
    It gets lonely
    On the other side from you
    I pine a lot
    I find the lot
    Falls through without you
    I'm coming back, love
    Cruel Heathcliff, my one dream
    My only master

    Too long I roam in the night
    I'm coming back to his side, to put it right
    I'm coming home to wuthering, wuthering
    Wuthering Heights

    Heathcliff, it's me--Cathy
    Come home
    I'm so cold!
    Let me in-a-your window

    Heathcliff, it's me--Cathy
    Come home
    I'm so cold!
    Let me in-a-your window

    Ooh! Let me have it
    Let me grab your soul away
    Ooh! Let me have it
    Let me grab your soul away
    You know it's me--Cathy!

    Heathcliff, it's me--Cathy
    Come home
    I'm so cold!
    Let me in-a-your window

    Heathcliff, it's me--Cathy
    Come home
    I'm so cold!
    Let me in-a-your window

    Heathcliff, it's me--Cathy
    Come home
    I'm so cold!

    Ami Lointain
    Composer(s): Francis Lemarque - B. Mokroussov
    Performer(s): Yves Montand



    Le cœur d'une ville inconnue
    Se livre au hasard des rues
    J'étais l'étranger venu là pour un soir
    Et soudain j'ai croisé un regard
    Ce n'était rien rien qu'un passant
    Il m'a sourit sur mon chemin comme un ami
    Je ne sais pas pourquoi je garde encore l'image
    De ce visage plein de chaleur

    Perdu dans la foule tranquille
    Je suis resté immobile
    Il s'est retourné un instant
    Et de loin j'ai pu voir s'agiter une main
    Ce n'était rien rien qu'un adieu
    Ou un bonjour donné de loin
    Là sur mon chemin
    Mais tous les mots n'auraient pu m'en dire davantage
    Que ce visage plein de chaleur

    Ami lointain
    Je ne sais rien
    Ni de ta ville ni de ton nom
    Mais j'ai gardé
    Ton souvenir qui chante
    Encore dans ma mémoire
    Et la chaleur de ton regard

    Wunga Bunga Boo
    Composer(s): Stanley; Alleyn
    Performer(s): George Formby



    To take a trip on a great big ship
    One day I took the notion
    Yo-ho, (Yo-ho, Yo-ho)
    But the ship got wrecked which I didn't expect
    And it tipped me in the ocean
    Yo-ho, (Yo-ho, Yo-ho)

    I swam around for umpteen weeks
    And reached a Zulu isle
    With the aid of a rope and a bar of soap
    I landed with a smile
    On Wunga Bunga Boo, on Wunga Bunga Boo

    Where dressings not extensive
    And floors are not expensive
    The girls out there are really beauts
    And walk out in their bathing suits
    A string of beads and Russian boots
    In Wunga Bunga Boo

    I heard a roar upon the shore
    And the chief said, "Pleased to meet you"
    Yo-ho, (Yo-ho, Yo-ho)
    And "You look" he said "like dairy fed
    It'll do us good to eat you"
    Yo ho, (Yo-ho, Yo-ho)
    "The last white meat we had to eat
    Was an old man lean and bald
    When cooked, we found that he didn't go round
    So we're very glad you called"

    On Wunga Bunga Boo, on Wunga Bunga Boo
    While fighting Big Chief Coco
    He went and lost his Boko
    The doctor stuck it on quite pat
    But upside down, now fancy that
    He blew his nose and lost his hat
    In Wunga Bunga Boo

    In Wunga Bunga Boo, in Wunga Bunga Boo
    An M.P. last September
    Got something to remember
    A lion chased him down the street
    And bit him during his retreat
    That's how he nearly lost his seat
    In Wunga Bunga Boo

    Ami cherche un autre ami perdu
    Dans l'immensité des nues
    Visages et corps inconnus
    Rêveur cherche à retrouver son ciel
    Du fond de la nuit appelle
    Son étoile maternelle
    Car il y a vingt ans un orage
    L'a fait tomber de mon nuage
    Et m'a laissé seul dans ce monde abandonné
    Au matin d'un lointain voyage
    Je suis tombé de mon nuage
    Je n'ai jamais senti la terre sous mes pieds
    Reviens, étoile aux plaines d'argent
    Reviens chercher ton enfant
    Avant qu'il ne soit géant
    Avant qu'il ne se brûle à un feu
    Qu'il ne se blesse à un jeu
    Avant qu'il ne soit trop vieux
    Car il y a vingt ans un orage
    L'a fait tomber de mon nuage
    Et m'a laissé seul dans ce monde abandonné
    Au matin d'un lointain voyage
    Je suis tombé de mon nuage
    Je n'ai jamais senti la terre sous mes pieds
    Il y a vingt ans un orage
    L'a fait tomber de mon nuage
    Et m'a laissé seul dans ce monde abandonné
    Au matin d'un lointain voyage
    Je suis tombé de mon nuage

    Made myself a coming county welfare line
    I was feeling strung out
    Hung out on the line
    Saw myself a going, down to war in June
    All I want
    All I want is to write myself a tune

    Wrote A Song For Everyone
    Wrote a song for truth
    Wrote A Song For Everyone
    And I couldn't even talk to you

    Got myself arrested
    Wound me up in jail
    Richmond 'bout to blow up
    Communication failed
    If you see the answer, now's the time to say
    All I want All I want is to get you down to pray.

    Wrote A Song For Everyone
    Wrote a song for truth
    Wrote A Song For Everyone
    And I couldn't even talk to you

    Wrote A Song For Everyone
    Wrote a song for truth
    Wrote A Song For Everyone
    And I couldn't even talk to you

    Saw the people standing thousand years in chains
    Somebody said it's different now, look, it's just the same
    Pharaohs spin the message, round and round the truth
    They could have saved a million people
    How can I tell you?

    Composer(s): Eric Benzi

    Voir passer les nuages
    Grimper au sommet
    Remonter les rivières
    Retenir l'été
    S'inventer des mirages
    Tout recommencer
    Rester en arrière
    Ou passer le premier
    Devenir grand
    Sans jamais vieillir
    Boucler sa valise
    Trois, quatre et partir
    Dormir sous les étoiles
    Et rire gratuit
    Partager ses angoisses
    Et ses désirs aussi

    Roulent, roulent toutes nos vies
    L'amour infidèle
    Et tourne, tourne tout ce qu'on dit
    S'il ne restait qu'un mot sur mes lèvres
    Ami

    Boire aux mêmes lèvres
    Des sirènes d'un jour
    Et tomber par terre
    À chacun son tour
    Passer les frontières
    Et embrasser la rue
    Au hasard d'une bière
    Sur un pari perdu
    J'aurai les mêmes rides
    Sur le même côté
    Du côté de tes rires
    Du côté où tu es
    Et si la grande noire
    Viens pour t'emmener
    Au-delà des ombres
    Tu m'entendras crier

    Roulent, roulent toutes nos vies
    L'amour infidèle
    Et tourne, tourne tout ce qu'on dit
    S'il ne restait qu'un mot sur mes lèvres
    Ami, ami

    Tourne, tourne, tourne la vie
    Je serai le même
    Longue, longue et longue est la nuit
    Mais je te serai toujours fidèle
    Ami, ami, ami

    Wrong Number
    Performer(s): The Cure



    Lime green, lime green and tangerine
    The sickly sweet colors of the snakes I'm seeing
    Lime green and tangerine
    The sickly sweet colors of the devil in my dreams

    Lime green, lime green and tangerine
    The sickly sweet colors of the snakes I'm seeing
    Lime green and tangerine
    The sickly sweet colors of the devil in my dreams

    It gets to Friday
    I give you a call
    You know I’m getting kind of worried
    She doesn't seem herself at all
    Lime green and a sickly kind of orange
    I’ve never seen her like this before

    I had the best laid plans this side of America
    Started out in church and finished with Angelica
    Red and blue soul with a snow-white smile

    Can you dig it?
    Can you dig it? (Can you dig it?)
    Can you dig it?

    I had the best-laid plans this side of America
    Started out in church and finished with Angelica
    And now I dig it in the dirt and I’m down here for a while

    You've got to make up your mind and make it soon
    Is there room in your life for one more trip to the moon?
    Is there room in your life for one more?

    Burn red, red and gold
    The deep dark colors of the snakes I hold
    Burn red, burn red, burn red and gold
    The deep dark colors of the devil at home

    She pulls me down just as I’m trying to hide
    Grabs me by the hair and drags me outside
    and starts digging in the dirt for a not so early bird
    It's the only way for her to get the worm

    I had the best laid plans this side of America
    Started out in church and finished with Angelica
    Red and blue soul with a snow-white smile

    Can you dig it?
    Can you dig it? (Can you dig it?)
    Can you dig it?

    I had the best-laid plans this side of America
    Started out in church and finished with Angelica
    And now I dig it in the dirt and I’m down here for a while

    “Hello? Are you still there?”
    “Hello? Are you still there?”
    “Hello? Are you still there?”
    And much too late . . .
    “Sorry . . . wrong number”
    “I’m sorry you have the wrong number”
    "Yeah... sorry, wrong number"

    Con todo el sabor
    que traigo desde mi tierra
    le canto al amor
    y es fuego el canto de mis venas

    Y así andaré
    por los caminos hermanos
    y así cantaré
    poniendo el alma en mis manos

    Con el puro sentimiento
    voy cantando como el viento
    a mi gente la que siento
    Y así, y así, y así es él
    Americano...Americano
    Americano...Americano

    Y quiero llegar
    a esas almas gemelas
    gozar la amistad
    y apaciguar nuestras penas

    No importa el color
    y no me importa el idioma
    de un canto de amor
    todos perciben su aroma

    Americano...Americano
    Americano...Americano
    Hoy te abrazo fiel amigo
    ante Dios, mi buen testigo
    y en mi canto te bendigo

    (I can hear a mandolino)

    Write to me from Naples
    Write me ev'ry day
    I love you and Naples
    More than words can say

    Call me "Cara mia"
    Tell me all that's new
    Write to me from Naples
    Keep my heart with you

    (I can hear a mandolino
    Softly it sighs
    While I raise a glass of vino
    Praising your eyes)

    Since we said "Arrivederci"
    My poor heart cries
    For a letter from you

    Write to me from Naples
    I love you and Naples

    Call me "Cara mia"
    tell me all that's new
    Write to me from Naples
    Keep my heart with you

    Keep my heart with you

    Americana
    Composer(s): Kathy Wakefield
    Performer(s): Dalida



    Americana c'est un mot qui craque dans la nuit
    Americana c'est un peu de rêve et de folie
    Americana c'est un mot qui parle de géant
    Americana a la fureur de vivre en noir et blanc

    L'avion se pose en silence
    Comme un goéland qui vient de France
    Sur la ville qui sommeille, l'ombre d'une statue ce réveille
    Du ciel gris de l'Atlantique, au soleil brûlant du Pacifique
    C'est une île qui vagabonde
    une lie jusqu'au beau milieu du monde

    Americana, Americana
    C'est l'Amérique, qui fait rêver
    Americana, Americana,
    Joue ta musique fais moi danser

    Manhattan, centième étage
    Accroché son cœur dans les nuages
    Quand San-Francisco s'affolent
    Au rythmes des amours qui s'envolent
    On se saoule de musique
    Sur des mots souvent mélancolique
    Las-Vegas et ses machines
    Et ses filles sorties des magazines

    Americana, Americana
    C'est l'Amérique, qui fait rêver
    Americana, Americana,
    Joue ta musique fais moi danser

    Americana c'est un mot qui craque dans la nuit
    Americana c'est un peu de rêve et de folie
    Americana c'est un mot qui parle de géant
    Americana a la fureur de vivre en noir et blanc

    Et moi qui suis d'ici d'ailleurs de nul part
    Je refais souvent le voyage, ce voyage
    Depuis que j'ai vu l'Amérique
    Ces plages au parfums d'Acapulco
    Plongés d'avenues au numéros
    Et ses boulevards plus long que des villes
    Ces quartiers qui parle en Italien
    Restaurants Chinois ou Parisien
    Ou chacun retrouve un peu de son pays

    Americana c'est un mot qui craque dans la nuit
    Americana c'est un peu de rêve et de folie
    Americana c'est un mot qui parle de géant
    Americana a la fureur de vivre en noir et blanc

    Americana, Americana
    C'est l'Amérique, qui fait rêver
    Americana, Americana
    Joue ta musique fais moi danser

    Americana c'est un mot qui parle de géant
    Americana a la fureur de vivre en noir et blanc
    Americana c'est un peu de rêve et de folie
    Americana c'est un mot qui claque dans la nuit

    Write Me A Letter
    Composer(s): Steven Tyler
    Performer(s): Aerosmith



    Write Me A Letter
    Write Me A Letter
    Write it today
    I'm goin' away

    Write Me A Letter
    Write Me A Letter
    Write it today
    I'm goin' away (yes it is)

    Well I've been away forever
    Suicide's crossin' my mind
    Well I'll never, never, never, never, never
    Get so far behind
    I said, the ways of the night are evil
    Without that Lord of Day
    But I'll never, never, never, never, never
    get so far away

    I said write me
    Write me
    Write me
    I said write me
    Write me
    Write me

    Well there's nothin' I can see
    That'd ever make me
    Want to be without her
    She's good, she good to me
    Said there's no way to explain
    The kind of feelin' that you get out in the way
    She good, she good to me
    She good, she good to me
    See this emptyness inside will make me scream
    Make gonna know how
    She good, she good to me

    I love her

    Write Me A Letter
    Write Me A Letter
    Write it today
    I'm goin' away

    Well I've been away forever
    Suicide's crossin' my mind
    Well I'll never, never, never, never, never
    get so far behind

    Well I've been so many places
    Hidin' from the wind and the rain
    But you could write me a letter
    For to save me from goin' insane

    I said write me
    Write me
    Write me
    A letter (what's inside?)
    Write me
    Write me
    Write me baby!!

    American Woman, stay away from me
    American Woman, mama let me be
    Don't come a hangin' around my door
    I don't wanna see your face no more
    I got more important things to do
    Than spend my time growin' old with you
    Now Woman, I said stay away
    American Woman, listen what I say-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay

    American Woman, get away from me
    American Woman, mama let me be
    Don't come a knockin' around my door
    Don't wanna see your shadow no more
    Coloured lights can hypnotize
    Sparkle someone else's eyes
    Now Woman, I said get away
    American Woman, listen what I say-ay-ay-ay

    American Woman, said get away
    American Woman, listen what I say
    Don't come a hangin' around my door
    Don't wanna see your face no more
    I don't need your war machines
    I don't need your ghetto scenes
    Coloured lights can hypnotize
    Sparkle someone else's eyes
    Now Woman, get away from me
    American Woman, mama let me be

    Go, gotta get away, gotta get away now go, go, go
    I'm gonna leave you woman
    Gonna leave you woman
    Bye-bye Bye-bye Bye-bye Bye-bye
    You're no good for me
    I'm no good for you
    Gonna look you right in the eye
    Tell you what I'm gonna do
    You know I'm gonna leave
    You know I'm gonna go
    You know I'm gonna leave
    You know I'm gonna go-o, woman
    I'm gonna leave you woman
    Goodbye American Woman
    Goodbye American chick

    Move On
    Composer(s): Betty Thatcher
    Performer(s): Terry Sullivan



    As the night begins to fade
    And time turns the page
    Now I'm alive for another day
    We're alive for another day

    Do you wonder what could be?
    Do you dream to be the wise
    Can we fix the mess that we've made
    And fix the mess we've made

    And to stand the test of time
    But never get to rewind
    You turn in face to give
    But first you've got to give

    To move on
    (never get, never get to rewind)

    From the eyes of a child
    From that simple smiling face
    ???
    But nothing else has changed

    And to stand the test of time
    But never get to rewind
    You turn in face to give
    But first you got to give

    To move on
    (never get to rewind)
    On and on and on
    (never get, never get to rewind)

    To move on
    ???
    Move on
    Move on

    To stand the test of time
    But never get to rewind
    To turn in face to give
    But first you got to give

    To move on
    On and on and on

    To move on
    On and on and on
    On and on and on
    (never get to rewind)

    To move on (moving on)
    On and on and on
    (moving on)

    To move on
    On and on and on
    (never get to rewind)

    To Move on
    On and on and on

    To move on
    On and on and on ...

    American Tune
    ((Italian Version: Canzone Italiana (by Bruno Lauzi) - 1973))
    Composer(s): Paul Simon
    First release by: Paul Simon - 1973
    Covered by multiple other artists



    Many's the time I've been mistaken
    And many times confused
    Yes, and often felt forsaken
    And certainly misused

    Ah, but I'm all right, I'm all right
    I'm just weary to my bones
    Still you don't expect to be
    Bright and bon vivant
    So far away from home
    So far away from home

    And I don't know a soul who's not been battered
    I don't have a friend who feels at ease
    I don't know a dream that's not been shattered
    or driven to its knees

    But it's all right, it's all right
    For we lived so well so long
    Still when I think of the road we're traveling on
    I wonder what's gone wrong
    I can't help it, I wonder what's gone wrong

    And I dreamed I was dying
    And I dreamed that my soul rose unexpectedly
    And looking back down at me
    Smiled reassuringly

    And I dreamed I was flying
    High up above my eyes could clearly see
    The Statue of Liberty
    Sailing away to sea
    And I dreamed I was flying

    For we come on the ship they call the Mayflower
    Come on the ship that sailed the moon
    We come in the age's most uncertain hours
    and sing an American tune

    Ah and it's all right
    it's all right, it's all right
    You can't be forever blessed
    Still tomorrow's going to be another working day
    And I'm trying to get some rest
    That's all, I'm trying to get some rest

    (Whip sound) Get up there, H'ya (whip sound)
    Oooh Oooh

    Oh wringle wrangle
    Jingy jong jangle (whistle, whip)
    Mighty fine horse
    I'm in love of course
    'Cause I got me a pretty woman's love

    Wringle wrangle
    Jingy jong jangle (whistle, whip)
    Spurs on my boots
    And I don't give a hoot
    'Cause I got me a pretty woman's love

    With a dollar's worth of beans,
    And a new pair of jeans
    Got a woman to cook and wash...and things

    Oh wringle wrangle
    Jingy jong jangle (whistle, whip)
    If I die
    I ain't-a gonna cry
    'Cause I got me a pretty woman's love

    American Pie ((aka The Saga Begins (by "Weird Al" Yankovic) - 1999))
    Composer(s): Don McLean
    First release by: Don McLean - 1971
    Covered by multiple other artists



    A long, long time ago
    I can still remember how that music used to make me smile
    And I knew if I had my chance
    That I could make those people dance
    And maybe they'd be happy for a while.

    But February made me shiver
    With every paper I'd deliver
    Bad news on the doorstep
    I couldn't take one more step

    I can't remember if I cried
    When I read about his widowed bride
    But something touched me deep inside
    The day the music died

    So bye-bye, Miss American Pie
    Drove my Chevy to the levee
    But the levee was dry
    And them good old boys were drinking whiskey and rye
    Singing this'll be the day that I die
    This'll be the day that I die

    Did you write the Book of Love
    And do you have faith in God above
    If the Bible tells you so
    Do you believe in rock 'n roll
    Can music save your mortal soul
    And can you teach me how to dance real slow

    Well, I know that you're in love with him
    'Cause I saw you dancing in the gym
    You both kicked off your shoes
    Man, I dig those rhythm and blues

    I was a lonely teenage broncing buck
    With a pink carnation and a pickup truck
    But I knew I was out of luck
    The day the music died
    I started singing

    Bye-bye, Miss American Pie
    Drove my Chevy to the levee
    But the levee was dry
    And them good old boys were drinking whiskey and rye
    Singing this'll be the day that I die
    This'll be the day that I die

    Now for ten years we've been on our own
    And moss grows fat on a rolling stone
    But that's not how it used to be
    When the jester sang for the King and Queen
    In a coat he borrowed from James Dean
    And a voice that came from you and me

    Oh, and while the King was looking down
    The jester stole his thorny crown
    The courtroom was adjourned
    No verdict was returned
    And while Lennon read a book of Marx
    The quartet practised in the park
    And we sang dirges in the dark
    The day the music died
    We were singing

    So bye-bye, Miss American Pie
    Drove my Chevy to the levee
    But the levee was dry
    And them good old boys were drinking whiskey and rye
    Singing this'll be the day that I die
    This'll be the day that I die

    Helter Skelter in a summer swelter
    The Byrds flew off with a fallout shelter
    Eight miles high and falling fast
    It landed foul out on the grass
    The players tried for a forward pass
    With the jester on the sidelines in a cast

    Now the half-time air was sweet perfume
    While the Sergeants played a marching tune
    We all got up to dance
    Oh, but we never got the chance
    'Cause the players tried to take the field
    The marching band refused to yield
    Do you recall what was revealed
    The day the music died
    We started singing

    So bye-bye, Miss American Pie
    Drove my Chevy to the levee
    But the levee was dry
    And them good old boys were drinking whiskey and rye
    Singing this'll be the day that I die
    This'll be the day that I die

    Oh, and there we were all in one place
    A generation Lost in Space
    With no time left to start again
    So come on, Jack be nimble, Jack be quick
    Jack Flash sat on a candlestick
    'Cause fire is the Devil's only friend

    Oh, and as I watched him on the stage
    My hands were clenched in fists of rage
    No angel born in hell
    Could break that Satan's spell
    And as the flames climbed high into the night
    To light the sacrificial rite
    I saw Satan laughing with delight
    The day the music died
    He was singing

    So bye-bye, Miss American Pie
    Drove my Chevy to the levee
    But the levee was dry
    And them good old boys were drinking whiskey and rye
    Singing this'll be the day that I die
    This'll be the day that I die

    I met a girl who sang the blues
    And I asked her for some happy news
    But she just smiled and turned away
    I went down to the sacred store
    Where I'd heard the music years before
    But the man there said the music wouldn't play

    And in the streets the children screamed
    The lovers cried, and the poets dreamed
    But not a word was spoken
    The church bells all were broken
    And the three men I admire most
    The Father, Son and the Holy Ghost
    They caught the last train for the coast
    The day the music died
    And they were singing

    So bye-bye, Miss American Pie
    Drove my Chevy to the levee
    But the levee was dry
    And them good old boys were drinking whiskey and rye
    Singing this'll be the day that I die
    This'll be the day that I die

    They were singing bye-bye, Miss American Pie
    Drove my Chevy to the levee
    But the levee was dry
    Them good old boys were drinking whiskey and rye
    Singing this'll be the day that I die

    Wrecking Ball
    Composer(s): Neil Young
    Originally performed by: Neil Young
    Covered by: Emmylou Harris



    My life's an open book, you read it on the radio
    We've got no where to hide, we got no where to go
    But' if you still decide you want to take a ride

    Meet me at the Wrecking ball
    Wrecking Ball, I'll wear something pretty and white
    And we'll go dancing tonight
    Meet me at the Wrecking Ball
    Wrecking Ball, I'll wear something pretty and white
    And we'll go dacing tonight

    I see smokey eyes right across the bar
    I've seen that look before shining from star to star
    Though I can't take that chance
    If you've got time for one dance

    The restless line of cars goes stretching down the road
    But I won't telephone çause you might say hello
    What is it makes me feel this way
    What is it makes me want to say
