Amigos Nada Más Composer(s): Fernando Z. Maldonado Performer(s): Javier Solís
Amigos nada más así tiene que ser he de olvidar tu amor y tú también lo harás porque ya no podré borrar jamás esas caricias que otro amor te dejó con huellas de pasión que no puedo arrancar
Amigos nada más así tiene que ser culpable soy también pues también te falté Así es mejor mi bien para los dos el separarnos amigos nada más en bien de nuestro amor
Amigos nada más así tiene que ser culpable soy también pues también te falté Así es mejor mi bien para los dos el separarnos amigos nada más en bien de nuestro amor
Daddy Sang Bass
Composer(s): Carl Perkins
First release by: Johnny Cash - 1968
Covered by multiple other artists
I remember when I was a lad Times were hard and things were bad But there's a silver linin' behind ev'ry cloud Just four people that 's all we were Tryin' to make a livin' out of black-land dirt But we'd get together in a family circle singin' loud
Daddy sang bass (mama sang tenor) Me and little brother would join right in there Singin' seems to help a troubled soul One of these days and it won't be long I'll rejoin them in a song I'm gonna join the family circle at the throne
Though the circle won't be broken By and by, Lord, by and by Daddy sang bass (mama sang tenor) Me and little brother would join right in there In the sky, Lord, in the sky
Now I remember after work mama would call in all of us You could hear us singin' for a country mile Now little brother has done gone on But I'll rejoin him in a song We'll be together again up yonder in a little while
Daddy sang bass (mama sang tenor) Me and little brother would join right in there 'cause singin' seems to help a troubled soul One of these days and it won't be long I'll rejoin them in a song I'm gonna join the family circle at the throne
Oh no the circle won't be broken By and by, Lord, by and by Daddy sang bass (mama sang tenor) Me and little brother would join right in there In the sky, Lord, in the sky
Amigo Organillero Composer(s): Rafael Carrión Performer(s): Javier Solís and multiple other artists
Amigo organillero arranca con tus notas pedazos de mi alma no importa que el recuerdo destroce mis entrañas tú sigue toca y toca
Como un puñal de luto está clavada en mi alma aquella noche negra cuando en mis brazos sus ojos se cerraron, sus labios muertos ya nunca más me hablaron
Quiero morir no tengo ya aquél amor tan puro y santo quiero seguir al más allá a la que quiero tanto En esta noche en que la muerte espero sigue tocando amigo organillero
Quiero morir, no tengo ya aquél amor tan puro y santo quiero seguir al más allá a la que quiero tanto En esta noche en que la muerte espero sigue tocando amigo organillero sigue tocando amigo organillero amigo organillero
Daddy Laid The Blues On Me Composer(s): Bobbie Cryner Performer(s): Bobbie Cryner
Well, way back in their younger days when they were running wild My Daddy had a dream, and Momma had a child He said: "Girl you can't be tying me down, I'm only seventeen "An' a man's gotta get around, if you know what I mean" Then my Momma said: "Go on," as she stood and cried And my Daddy said: "I'm gone, I gotta live my life"
An' I was born one summer night When the world loved Patsy Cline I was raised by the tracks, in a tar-paper shack On the Georgia-Alabama line Momma taught me how to play and sing And we headed up to Tennessee Momma sold my soul on Country rock and roll But Daddy laid the blues on me
Well I signed that dotted line, and I climbed my way to being a star When I ran across my Daddy, in a downtown Tallahasse bar He said: "Girl there ain't no life on the road: you better come with me" I said: "Dad, I gotta get around if you know what I mean" Well my Daddy said: "Come on," with a tear in his eye I said: "Sorry Daddy, I'm gone, I gotta live my life"
An' I was born one summer night When the world loved Patsy Cline I was raised by the tracks, in a tar paper shack On the Georgia-Alabama line Momma taught me how to play and sing And we headed up to Tennessee Momma sold my soul on Country rock and roll But Daddy laid the blues on me
An' I was born one summer night When the world loved Patsy Cline I was raised by the tracks, in a tar-paper shack On the Georgia-Alabama line Momma taught me how to play and sing And we headed up to Tennessee Momma sold my soul on Country rock and roll But Daddy laid the blues on me
Yeah, Momma sold my soul on Country rock and roll But Daddy laid the blues on me
Amigo Mío Composer(s): Miguel Gallardo Performer(s): Azúcar Moreno

Daddy Frank (The Guitar Man)
Composer(s): Merle Haggard
First recording/First release by: Merle Haggard - 1971
Covered by multiple other artists
Daddy Frank played the guitar and the french harp Sister played the ringing tambourine Mamma couldn't hear our pretty music She read our lips and helped the family sing That little band was all a part of living And our only means of living at the time And it wasn't like no normal family combo 'Cos Daddy Frank, the guitar man, was blind
Frank and Mamma counted on each other Their one and only weakness made 'em strong Hey, Mamma did the driving for the family And Frank made a living with a song Home was just a camp along the highway A pick-up bed was where we bedded down Don't ever once remember going hungry I remember Mamma cooking on the ground
Daddy Frank played the guitar and the French harp Sister played the ringing tambourine Mamma couldn't hear our pretty music She read our lips and helped the family sing That little band was all a part of living And our only means of living at the time And it wasn't like no normal family combo 'Cos Daddy Frank, the guitar man, was blind
Don't remember how they got acquainted I can't recall just how it came to be But there had to be some special help from someone And blessed be the one who let it be Fever caused my Mamma's loss of hearing Daddy Frank was born without his sight And Mamma needed someone she could lean on And I believe the guitar man was right
Daddy Frank played the guitar and the French harp Sister played the ringing tambourine Mamma couldn't hear our pretty music She read our lips and helped the family sing That little band was all a part of living And our only means of living at the time And it wasn't like no normal family combo 'Cos Daddy Frank, the guitar man, was blind
Amigo Mayor Composer(s): Silvio Rodríguez Performer(s): Silvio Rodríguez
Amigo pude ser quien bien repara en la musa o engendro que yo aporte Amigo, sí, es también quien me soporte pero amigo mayor es quien me ampara
No me cures, hermano, de delirio de aullido, desmesura o arrebato Déjame arder en el amor ingrato o en la inefable luz de otro martirio
Pero cuando haga daño, aunque inocente corre hacia mi blandiendo el pecho abierto y descorre las nubes de mi mente sé amigo manantial en mi desierto que yo sabré recompensar tu acierto con mayor amistad para la gente
Amigo Composer(s): Erasmo Carlos - Roberto Carlos - Luis Gómez Escolar Performer(s): Roberto Carlos
Você meu amigo de fé meu irmão camarada Amigo de tantos caminhos e tantas jornadas Cabeça de homem mas o coração de menino Aquele que está do meu lado em qualquer caminhada
Me lembro de todas as lutas meu bom companheiro Você tantas vezes provou que é um grande guerreiro O seu coração é uma casa de portas abertas Amigo você é o mais certo das horas incertas
Às vezes em certos momentos difíceis da vida Em que precisamos de alguém pra ajudar na saída A sua palavra de força, de fé e de carinho Me dá a certeza de que eu nunca estive sozinho
Você meu amigo de fé meu irmão camarada Sorriso e abraço festivo na minha chegada Você que me diz as verdades com frases abertas Amigo você é o mais certo das horas incertas
Não preciso nem dizer Tudo isso que eu lhe digo Mas é muito bom saber Que você é meu amigo
Daddy And Home

Performer(s): Tanya Tucker
and multiple other artists
I am dreaming, tonight, of an old southern town And the best friend that I ever had For I've grown so weary of roaming around And I'm going home to my Dad
Your hair has turned to silver And I know you're failing too Daddy, dear, oh, Daddy I'm coming back to you You made my childhood happy But still I longed to roam I've had my way, but now I'll say I long for you and for home
Dear Daddy, you shared all my sorrows and joys You tried hard to bring me up right I know you'll still be one of the boys I'm starting back home tonight
Your hair has turned to silver And I know you're failing too Daddy, dear, oh, Daddy I'm coming back to you You made my childhood happy But still I longed to roam I've had my way, but now I'll say I long for you and for home
I've had my way, but now I'll say I long for you and for home
Amiga Composer(s): Luis Gómez Escolar Performer(s): Miguel Bosé
Ahora que te busco y tu no estas, recuerdo solo la tristeza quiere hablar conmigo
Ahora que la lluvia se ha llevado el ultimo jiron de tu vestido
Ahora que he olvidado lo que soy, recuerdo en el pasado lo que he sido
Si he sido lo que fui fue por tu cuerpo Si he sido noche fue tu noche quien lo quiso Si he sido beso es que mis labios aprendieron a ser beso para ti Si he sido lo que soy fue en tu regazo Si he sido vida fue por darte a ti la vida Amiga, Amiga (Coro)
Que dulce esa palabra suena hoy
El tiempo no fue tiempo entre nosotros Estando juntos nos sentimos infinitos Y el universo era pequeño comparado con lo que eramos tu y yo
Si fuiste lo que fuiste fue en mi casa que para ti fue tu palacio y tu guarida Amiga, Amiga Que dulce esa palabra y que sencilla esa palabra suena hoy
No hay noche mas obscura que esta noche y el frio se va depositando en los rincones del alma
Y ahora que el silencio va borrando la suave vibracion de tus palabras Ahora que no son la espera es nada recuerdo lo que fui cuando no estabas

Amie Composer(s): Craig Lee Fuller First release by: Pure Prairie League - 1972
I can see why you think you belong to me I never tried to make you think, or let you see one thing for yourself But now your off with someone else and I'm alone You see I thought that I might keep you for my own
Amie what you wanna do? I think I could stay with you For a while, maybe longer if I do
Don't you think the time is right for us to find All the things we thought weren't proper could be right in time And can you see Which way we should turn together or alone I can never see whats right or what is wrong (will it take to long to see)
Amie what you wanna do? I think I could stay with you For a while, maybe longer if I do
Well now Amie what you wanna do? I think I could stay with you For a while, maybe longer if I do
Now it's come to what you want you've had your way And all the things you thought before just faded into gray And can you see That I don't know if it's you or if it's me If it's one of us I'm sure we'll both will see Won't you look at me and tell me
Amie what you wanna do? I think I could stay with you For a while, maybe longer Longer if I do
Yeah now Amie what you wanna do? I think I could stay with you For a while, maybe longer if I do
Fallin' in and out of love with you Fallin' in and out of love with you Don't know what I'm gonna do, I'd keep Fallin' in and out of love With you
How nice to see the picture of a father and his son My father is my mother's wife and I'm his hot cross bun Our home sweet home's his castle, my daddy is the king 'Cos mother's crowned him once or twice and that is why I sing "Father, dear Father, come home with me now For the clock in the steeple strikes none" We've got dover soles, lemon soles, camisoles too And polonys with pullovers on Custard and jelly to fill up your evening And onions that put up a barrage We'd a toad in the hole but the toad has crawled out And we can't get him back in the garage
The twins have been crying for daddy all night And mother's too tender to slap 'em So she gave them a bath and one slipped through the plug And he's stuck in a drainpipe at Clapham The other poor darling keeps screaming for milk But the dairy's sent news that upset us Their cows have been feeding on lumps of ice-cream And they've frozen their poor carburettors
There's only one button left now on your pants And these things are not done in this nice land For everyone knows if that last button goes There'll be a depression in Iceland So picture this scene and take warning Oh Father stand up perpendicular And mother beware 'cos the sailors don't care And soldiers are not too particular Who made London today what Johannesburg is? Why the fathers of England we know And daddy I know you're my father 'Cos dear mother told me it's so
And you can't part a boy from his father You can't part a boy from his dad You can't part a Scotchman from money No matter how many he's had You can't part the skin of a sausage Or a dad from his fond son and heir And you can't part the hair on a bald-headed man For they'll be no parting there

You can tell me what's a little old kiss on the cheek?
But I ain't a-gonna wash for a week, a-no no
I ain't a-gonna wash for a week
We ain't a-gonna wash
We ain't a-gonna wash
We ain't a-gonna wash for a week

Amico Composer(s): Renato Zero - Franca Evangelisti - Dario Baldan Bembo First release by: Renato Zero - 1980
Il sole muore già e di noi questa notte avrà pietà dei nostri giochi confusi nell'ipocrisia il tempo ruba i contorni a una fotografia Il vento spazza via questa nostra irreversibile zerofollia! Chi sa se il seme di un sentimento rivedrà la luce del giorno che un'altra vita ci darà Resta amico accanto a me resta e parlami di lei se ancora c'è l'amore muore disciolto in lacrime ma noi teniamoci forte e lasciamo il mondo ai vizi suoi Io e te lo stesso pensiero io e te il tuo il mio respiro sarà tornare ragazzi e crederci ancora un po' sporcheremo i muri con un altro no e vai se vuoi andare avanti perché sei figlio dei tempi ma se frugando nella tua giacca scoprissi che dietro il portafoglio un cuore ancora c'è amico cerca me E ti ricorderai del morbillo e le cazzate tra di noi la prima esperienza fallimentare che era lei amico era ieri le vele le hai spiegate ormai e tu ragazza pure tu che arrossivi se la mano andava giù ritorna a pensare che sarai madre ma di chi di lui che è innocente che non si dica figlio di... Io e te lo stesso pensiero io e te il tuo il mio respiro
Che fai se stai lì da solo in due più azzurro è il tuo polo amico è bello, amico è tutto, è l'eternità è quello che non passa mentre tutto va amico, amico, amico il più fico amico è chi resisterà Chi resisterà? Chi di noi, chi di noi resisterà
Daar Wil Ik Zijn
Composer(s): Boudewijn de Groot - Freek De Jonge
Performer(s): Boudewijn de Groot
Ik wil zijn waar mensen lachen Waar het van pret wordt uitgegierd Waar geen oog is voor ellende Het schaamteloze hoogtij viert Daar wil ik lachen en aan het lachen maken Van 's morgens vroeg tot 's avonds laat Daar wil ik publiek en clown zijn Tot het lachen mij vergaat
Dan wil ik gaan waar mensen huilen Om de toevalstreffers van het lot Waar het lijden zinloos is geworden Omdat men niet meer gelooft in God Daar wil ik heulen met de goeden Tegen de willekeur van het kwaad Daar wil ik treuren wil ik troosten Totdat ik geen traan meer laat
Dan wil ik zijn waar mensen vechten Ik wil voorop gaan in de strijd Tegen de bierkaai en de windmolens En tegen de verloren tijd Met het zwaard als ze dat vragen Met de vuist of met de pen Zal ik me in de oorlog mengen Tot ik moegestreden ben
Dan zal ik gaan waar mensen zingen Over vreugde en verdriet Over twee minnaars die elkander kregen In een langzaam liefdeslied
En wat er ook aan stijl mag klinken Blues, country, rock and roll of rap Ik zal me bij de zangers voegen Totdat ik geen stem meer heb
Amici Per Sempre Composer(s): Roby Facchinetti - Nicola Negrini Performer(s): Pooh
Si può essere amici per sempre anche quando le vite ci cambiano ci separano e ci oppongono Si può essere amici per sempre anche quando le feste finiscono e si rompono gli incantesimi Si può anche venire alle mani poi dividersi gli ultimi spiccioli non parlarsi più, non scordarsi mai Gli amici ci riaprono gli occhi ci capiscono meglio di noi e ti metton davanti agli specchi anche quando non voi E campioni del mondo o in un mare di guai per gli amici rimani chi sei sarà il branco che viene a salvarti se ti perdi Puoi alzare barriere, litigare con dio cambiare famiglia e città strappare anche foto e radici, ma tra amici non c'è mai un addio Si può essere amici per sempre anche quando le donne non vogliono e per vivere devi scegliere In amore o sei dentro o sei fuori un amico ti lascia anche vivere non ti scredita, no si vendica Gli amici colpiscono duro che neanche una madre è così senza chi mi sbatteva nel muro forse non sarei qui E campioni del mondo o in un mare di guai per gli amici rimani chi sei sarà il branco che viene a salvarti se ti perdi Puoi alzare barriere, litigare con dio cambiare famiglia e città strappare anche foto e radici, ma tra amici non c'è mai un addio Si può essere amici per sempre
