Man On The Silver Mountain

Performer(s): Rainbow
and various other artists



I'm a wheel, I'm a wheel
I can roll, I can feel
And you can't stop me turning
'Cause I'm the sun, I'm the sun
I can move, I can run
But you'll never stop me burning!
Coming down with fire, to lift my spirit higher
Someone's screaming my name
"Come and make me holy again!"
I'm the man on the silver mountain
I'm the man on the silver mountain
I'm the day, I'm the day
I can show you the way
And look! I'm right beside you!
I'm the night, I'm the night
I'm the dark and the light
With eyes that see inside you
Coming down with fire, to lift my spirit higher
Someone's screaming my name
"Come and make me holy again!"
I'm the man on the silver mountain
I'm the man on the silver mountain

Man On The Corner
Composer(s): Phil Collins
Performer(s): Genesis; Daryl Stuermer



See the lonely man there on the corner
What he's waiting for, I don't know
But he waits everyday now
He's just waiting for something to show

And nobody knows him
And nobody cares
'Cos there's no hiding place
There's no hiding place - for you

Looking everywhere at no one
He sees everything and nothing at all - oh
When he shouts nobody listens
Where he leads no one will go - oh

He's a lonely man, there on the corner
What he's waiting for, I don't know
But he waits everyday now
He's just waiting for something to show - oh

Nobody knows him
And nobody cares
'Cos there's no hiding place
There's no hiding place - for you and me

Are we just like all the rest
We're looking too hard for something he's got
Or moving too fast to rest
But like a monkey on your back you need it
But do you love it enough to leave it - ah

Just like the lonely man there on the corner
What he's waiting for, I don't know - oh
But he waits every day now
He's just waiting for that something to show - oh

Who's the lonely man there on the corner
What he's waiting for, I don't know
But he's there every day now
And he's just waiting for something to show - oh

Who's the lonely man there on the corner
What he's waiting for, I don't know
Oh but he waits every day now
He's just waiting for that something to show

1882
Performer(s): Paul McCartney



Good morning, young master, it's 1882
Your mother is hungry, what will you do?
There is bread in the kitchen of the big house upstairs
But I warn you, don't take it from them

Na na na na, du du, du du, na na du
You'll be tarred, you'll be feathered, you'll be hung like a ham
And I warn you, don't do it, young man

Your mother is calling, she wants you by the bed
So get up, young master, go shake your sleepy head
"Darling son, I am dying, and I leave it to you
I'm leaving, tell me, what did I do?"

Du du du, du du du, du du du, du du du
I'm dying, tell me, what did I do?"

Boy, he steals the bread, now that's enough, and heads for the door
Man, he hears him coming, "Boy, you won't be running no more"
Boy, he gets arrested and the case is tested that day
Judge, he guilty makes him and the jailer takes him away

Du du du du, du du du du du, du du du du
Du du du du, du du du, du du du du du du
Good night to the outlaw, but you want to be free
Good morning, oh, it's late, too late again

Man Of Miracles
Composer(s): Ray Brandle; Dennis DeYoung; James Young
Performer(s): Styx



He was a man of miracles

Fighting the solar windstorm
A winged horse guides his way
Oracle of the ancient midnight
Calls forth everlasting pain

And I know, yes I know
He was a man of miracles
Riding golden meteorites
Ruler of distant galaxies
Born of the northern lights
Of the northern lights

Sorcerer of the dark moon
Who dare incur his rage?
First child of the scorpion
Prophet of the crystal age

And I know, yes I know
He was a man of miracles
Riding golden meteorites
Ruler of distant galaxies
Born of the northern lights
Of the northern lights

He was a man of miracles

1917
Composer(s): David Olney
Performer(s): David Olney; Linda Rondstadt



The strange young man who comes to me
A soldier on a three day spree
Who needs one night's cheap ecstasy
And a woman's arms to hide him
He greets me with a courtly bow
And hides his pain by acting proud
He drinks too much and he laughs too loud
How can I deny him?

Let us dance beneath the moon
I'll sing to you "Claire de Lune'
The morning always comes too soon
But tonight the war is over

He speaks to me in schoolboy French
Of a soldier's life inside a trench
Of the look of death and the ghastly stench
I do my best to please him

He puts two roses in a vase
Two roses sadly out of place
Like the gallant smile on his haggard face
Playfully I tease him

Hold me 'neath the Paris skies
Let's not talk of how or why
Tomorrow's soon enough to die
But tonight the war is over

We make love too hard too fast
He falls asleep, his face a mask
He wakes with the shakes and he drinks from his flask
I put my arms around him

They die in the trenches and they die in the air
In Belgium and France the dead are everywhere
They die so fast there's no time to prepare
A decent grave to surround them

Old world glory, old world fame
The old world's gone, gone up in flames
Nothing will ever be the same
And nothing lasts forever

Oh I'd pray for him but I've forgotten how
And there's nothing, nothing that can save him now
There's always another with the same funny bow
And who am I to deny them

Man Of Many Words
Composer(s): Buddy Guy
Originally performed by: Buddy Guy



I don't care what nobody say 
I'm a man of a many words
I can speak things to you darlin' I do
I can swear that you never heard
I rap strong and I know it right along
Come on mama let me turn you on
Now come on 
Alright

When I grab my game and call your name
You would never be the same
In the midnight hours when you dream my darling
I swear you will call my name
I rap strong when I know it right along
Come on mama let me turn you on 
Now come on

I was hauled off to jail late last night
With no one to go my bail
I rapped strong to the judge early this morning
And the judge put the cops in jail
I rap strong and I know it right along
Come on mama let me turn you on
Now come on 
Let me tell you about it baby
I gotta tell you 
I'm gonna preach about it
I want the world to know about it
I want to know what you did to me
Let me tell you 
Listen 

Can you hear me
I wanna know do you hear me now
I gotta know do you hear me
I wanna know do you need me
Lord
Lord
Ohhhhhh, baby
Let's talk about it
Let me tell ya

1941
Composer(s): Harry Nilsson
Performer(s): Harry Nilsson;
Tom Northcott; Joel Grey



Well in nineteen-forty-one 
A happy father had a son
And by nineteen-forty-four 
The father walked right out the door
And in forty-five 
The mom and son were still alive
But who could tell in forty-six
If the two were to survive
Well the years were passing quickly
But not fast enough for him
So he closed his eyes till fifty-five
And he opened them up again
When he looked around he saw a clown
And the clown seemed very gay
And he set that night to join 
That circus clown and run away

Yoh-dod-dle-doh-da-dat-un-dee-dee (Scat Solo)

Well he followed every railroad track
And every highway sign
And he had a girl in each new town 
And the towns he left behind
And the open road 
Was the only road he knew
But the colour of his dreams 
Slowly turned into blue
Then he met a girl
The kind of girl he wanted all his life
She was soft and kind and good to him
So he took her for a wife
And they got a house not far from town
And in a little while
The girl had seen the doctor
And she came home with a smile

Now in nineteen-sixty-one
A happy father had a son
And by nineteen-sixty-four
The father walked right out the door
And in sixty-five
The mom and son were still around
But what will happen to the boy
When the circus comes to town

Ba-dom-ba-da-da..... (Scat Solo........Fade)

Man Made Paradise
Composer(s): Freddie Mercury
Performer(s): Freddie Mercury



I want to gaze into your eyes and see the fire in their glow
But it's the same old story
Want you to melt inside my arms like falling rain upon the snow
But you say no, you say no
Want you to help me through deep waters when my ship is in a storm
Want you to give me all the power like a king on his throne
But you don't care, you don't care
History repeats itself, I seem to be all by myself again

Come into my life, it's a man made paradise
Come into my life, it's a man made paradise
Come into my life, it's a man made paradise
Come into my life, it's a man made paradise, paradise

One day I'll look into your mind and understand which way to go
But it's the same old story
When you refuse me all the time I'm suicidal on my own
But you don't know, you don't know
I want to be beside you now, lie in the stand and kiss your brow
I want to fly beyond the moon and do the things we do for love
But you don't care, you don't care
History repeats itself, I seem to be all by myself again

Come into my life, it's a man made paradise
Come into my life, it's a man made paradise
Come into my life, it's a man made paradise
Come into my life, it's a man made paradise, paradise

I want to be beside you now, lie in the sand and kiss your brow
I want to fly beyond the moon and do the things we do for love
But you say no, you say no
History repeats itself, I seem to be all by myself again

Man In The Mirror
Composer(s): Siedah Garrett; Glen Ballard
Performer(s): Michael Jackson



I'm gonna make a change
for once im my life
It's gonna feel real good
gonna make a diference
Gonna make it right...

As I, turn up the collar on
my favorite winter coat
This wind is blowing my mind
I see the kids in the streets
with not enought to eat
Who am I to be blind?
Pretending not to see their needs

A summer disregard,a broken bottle top
And a one man soul
They follow each other on the wind ya' know
'Cause they got nowhere to go
That's why I want you to know

I'm starting with the man in the mirror
I'm asking him to change his ways
And no message could have been any clearer
If you wanna make the world a better place
(If you wanna make the world a better place)
Take a look at yourself, and then make a change
(Take a look at yourself, and then make a change)
(Na na na, na na na, na na, na nah)

I've been a victim of a selfish kind of love
It's time that I realize
That there are some with no home, not a nickel to loan
Could it be really me, pretending that they're not alone?

A willow deeply scarred, somebody's broken heart
And a washed-out dream
(Washed-out dream)
They follow the pattern of the wind ya' see
'Cause they got no place to be
That's why I'm starting with me
(Starting with me!)

I'm starting with the man in the mirror
(Ooh!)
I'm asking him to change his ways
(Ooh!)
And no message could have been any clearer
If you wanna make the world a better place
(If you wanna make the world a better place)
Take a look at yourself, and then make a change
(Take a look at yourself, and then make a change)

I'm starting with the man in the mirror
(Ooh!)
I'm asking him to change his ways
(Change his ways - ooh!)
And no message could have been any clearer
If you wanna make the world a better place
Take a look at yourself and then make that..
(Take a look at yourself and then make that..)
Change!

I'm starting with the man in the mirror
(Man in the mirror - Oh yeah!)
I'm asking him to change his ways
(Better change!)
No message could have been any clearer
(If you wanna make the world a better place)

(Take a look at yourself and then make the change)
(You gotta get it right, while you got the time)
('Cause when you close your heart)
You can't close your... your mind!
(Then you close your... mind!)
That man, that man, that man, that man
With the man in the mirror
(Man in the mirror, oh yeah!)
That man, that man, that man,
I'm asking him to change his ways
(Better change!)
You know... that man
No message could have been any clearer
If you wanna make the world a better place
(If you wanna make the world a better place)
Take a look at yourself and then make the change
(Take a look at yourself and then make the change)
Hoo! Hoo! Hoo! Hoo! Hoo!
Na na na, na na na, na na, na nah
(Ooooh...)
Oh no, no no...

I'm gonna make a change
It's gonna feel real good!
Come on!
(Change...)
Just lift yourself
You know
You've got to stop it
Yourself!
(Yeah! - Make that change!)
I've got to make that change, today!
Hoo!
(Man in the mirror)
You got to
You got to not let yourself...
brother
Hoo!
(Yeah! - Make that change!)
You know - I've got to get
that man, that man...
(Man in the mirror)
You've got to
You've got to move! Come on!
Come on!
You got to...
Stand up! Stand up! Stand up!
(Yeah! - Make that change)
Stand up and lift yourself, now!
(Man in the mirror)
Hoo! Hoo! Hoo!
Aaow!
(Yeah! - Make that change!)
Gonna make that change...

You know it!
You know it!
You know it!
You know it...
(Change...)

1952 Vincent Black Lightning
Composer(s): Richard Thompson
Performer(s): Richard Thompson



Oh says Red Molly to James
"That's a fine motorbike 
A girl could feel special on any such like" 
Says James to Red Molly "My hat's off to you 
It's a Vincent Black Lightning, 1952 
And I've seen you at the corners and cafes it seems 
Red hair and black leather, my favourite colour scheme" 
And he pulled her on behind and down to Boxhill they did ride 
Oh says James to Red Molly "Here's a ring for your right hand 
But I'll tell you in earnest I'm a dangerous man 
For I've fought with the law since I was seventeen
I robbed many a man to get my Vincent machine
Now I'm 21 years, I might make 22 
And I don't mind dying, but for the love of you
And if fate should break my stride 
Then I'll give you my Vincent to ride" 

"Come down, come down, Red Molly" called Sergeant McRae 
"For they've taken young James Adie for armed robbery
Shotgun blast hit his chest, left nothing inside
Oh come down, Red Molly to his dying bedside" 
When she came to the hospital, there wasn't much left 
He was running out of road, he was running out of breath 
But he smiled to see her cry 
He said "I'll give you my Vincent to ride" 

Says James "In my opinion, there's nothing in this world 
Beats a 52 Vincent and a red headed girl
Now Nortons and Indians and Greeves won't do
Ah, they don't have a soul like a Vincent 52" 
Oh he reached for her hand and he slipped her the keys 
Said "I've got no further use for these
I see angels on Ariels in leather and chrome
Swooping down from heaven to carry me home" 
And he gave her one last kiss and died 
And he gave her his Vincent to ride

Man In The Mirror
Composer(s): Dan Fogelberg
Performer(s): Dan Fogelberg



The man in the mirror 
He keeps getting nearer 
But I am not moving 
The man in the backstreet 
Is holding a trackmeet 
But I will not run 

Someplace inside you a 
Seed has been born 
You've got to watch it grow 
Someplace inside you 
A river is waiting to flow 
Will you let it go? 

Those voices you're hearing 
Are never worth fearing 
They're only inside you 
They'll tempt you and taunt you 
They'll help you and haunt you 
But don't try to hide 

Sometimes the sun will be 
Right at your shoulder 
Helping you keep your stride 
Sometimes you might have to give up 
A piece of your pride 
Have you even tried? 

The man in the mirror 
He keeps getting nearer 
But I am not moving 
The man in the backstreet 
Is holding a trackmeet 
But I will not run 

Someplace inside you a 
Seed has been born 
You've got to watch it grow 
Someplace inside you 
A river is waiting to flow 
Will you let it go?

1954 Boogie Blues
Composer(s): Daryl Dragon
Performer(s): Captain & Tennille



I wanta hear me some boogie played
like I heard in 1954
I wanta hear me some boogie played
like I heard in 1954
You know the way that Fats played the boogie
You just don't hear that anymore

I was just a little thing when I heard it on the radio
i was just a little thing when I heard it on the radio
Jerry Lee and Little Richard
You just don't hear that anymore

It was a rompin', stompin', finger-poppin'
Good-time music for my soul
And when the drums were talkin' and the bass went walkin'
That started it
Rock and Roll, oh!

I wanta hear me some boogie played like I heard in 1954
I wanta hear my Captain play some boogie now like I heard in 1954
You know the way my Captain plays the boogie
You just don't hear that anymore

Man In The Middle
Performer(s): Tom Petty



Like an inventor
He is a symbol of a new age
He glides above the realms
Of you and me
He flows through your life
And makes you feel quite small
You may sit up in your chair
He doesn’t care at all

He’s the man in the middle
You can tell which way he lays
He’s the man in the middle
And he realises
And he realises
And he realises
Beauty pays

His gowns come from paris
Occasionally from rome
He can go anywhere
Say back to his home
He flows through your life
And makes you feel quite small
Flashing to the white collars
Ha, he doesn’t care at all

He’s the man in the middle
You can tell which way he lays
He’s the man in the middle
And he realises
And he realises
And he realises
Beauty pays
Please...

He’s the man in the middle
You can tell which way he lays
He’s the man in the middle
And he realises
And he realises
And he realises
Beauty pays

He’s the man in the middle
You can tell which way he lays
He’s the man in the middle
And he realises
And he realises
And he realises
Beauty pays
Please...

1959
Composer(s): Gary Gentry
Performer(s): John Anderson



Cigarettes were a quarter then
bobby socks and jeans were in 
Elvis sang the songs that we loved so
and the most important thing to us
was keeping gas in my old truck
so I could take us to the drive-in show

Then graduation finally came
Uncle Sam called me away
you married someone else while I was gone
but I've kept your letter all these years 
and I can't help but shed a tear
when I read the words you wrote me years ago

Baby I'm yours
I'll love you always
I'm gonna stand by you until the end of time
remember all of the good things that we shared together
signed
love Betty
nineteen fifty nine

I never will forget the day
when you and I went all the way
I was the first for you
and you for me
I've still got the truck that we loved in
it takes me back there now and then
back to fifty nine in my memory

Repeat Chorus

Man In Black
Composer(s): Johnny Cash
Originally performed by: Johnny Cash



Well, you wonder why I always dress in black
Why you never see bright colors on my back
And why does my appearance seem to have a somber tone
Well, there's a reason for the things that I have on

I wear the black for the poor and the beaten down
Livin' in the hopeless, hungry side of town
I wear it for the prisoner who has long paid for his crime
But is there because he's a victim of the times

I wear the black for those who never read
Or listened to the words that Jesus said
About the road to happiness through love and charity
Why, you'd think He's talking straight to you and me

Well, we're doin' mighty fine, I do suppose
In our streak of lightnin' cars and fancy clothes
But just so we're reminded of the ones who are held back
Up front there ought 'a be a Man In Black

I wear it for the sick and lonely old
For the reckless ones whose bad trip left them cold
I wear the black in mournin' for the lives that could have been
Each week we lose a hundred fine young men

And, I wear it for the thousands who have died
Believen' that the Lord was on their side
I wear it for another hundred thousand who have died
Believen' that we all were on their side

Well, there's things that never will be right I know
And things need changin' everywhere you go
But 'til we start to make a move to make a few things right
You'll never see me wear a suit of white

Ah, I'd love to wear a rainbow every day
And tell the world that everything's OK
But I'll try to carry off a little darkness on my back
'Till things are brighter, I'm the Man In Black

1960
Composer(s): Gerry Beckley
Performer(s): America



How 'bout a tear for the year of 1960
I watched the fins of the Cadillac fall
I remember Dad explained about the Berlin Wall

How 'bout a tear for the torment and the trouble
That was brewing in the Asian way
I wore a smile like the faces that surround L.A.

In the city of the lost and found
It's hard to get a break
Hard to stop from getting turned around
And make the same mistakes

My reputation's on the line
The final day of '59
But like the sun, just watch me shine
Today

How 'bout a cheer for the piano virtuoso
I practiced 61 minutes a day
I could never reach the keys
But it was all OK

How 'bout a cheer for the humour in my brother
That could brighten up the darkest nights
It's just another sign of love
Whenever we would fight

It's all the same twenty years ago
As it is right now
Like a tour at the closing show
When I take my bow

My reputation's on the line
At the start of '79
But like the sun, just watch me shine
Today
I've played this part so many times
Since the end of '59
But like the sun, just watch me shine
Today

Man Full Of Yesterdays
Performer(s): David Byron



He wanted to go to the sun
He wanted to swim in the rain
He waisted his time
Drinking whisky and wine
But now he's come back again

He's tried so hard to forget
What others would make him regret
But if I were he I'd listen to me
And keep myself in my head

Keep myself in my head ...

A man full of yesterdays
Climbing the ladder once again
But he can feel the strain
He's got to make it through
Forget the mistakes of his youth

He's come back again ...

A man full of yesterdays
Climbing the ladder once again
But he can feel the strain

1964
Composer(s): Piazzola; Borges
Performer(s): Juan Carlos Baglietto



Ya no sere felíz
tal vez no importa
hay tantas otras cosas 
en el mundo
un instante cualquiera 
es mas profundo
y diverso que el mar

La vida es corta
y aunque las horas son tan largas
una oscura maravilla
nos asecha
la muerte, ese otro mar
esa otra flecha
que nos libra del sol
y de la luna y del amor

La dicha que me diste
y me quitaste
deben ser borradas
lo que era todo tiene
que ser nada
solo me queda el goce
de estar triste
Esa vana costumbre 
que me inclina al sur
a cierta puerta, a cierta esquina

Man From Galilee
Composer(s): Joe Isaacs
Performer(s): Ralph Stanley



Well do you know that man that rode on the mule
Do you know that man that rode on the mule
Do you know that man that rode on the mule
He's the same man from down in Galilee
He's the same man from down in Galilee

Well do you know that man that walked on the water
Do you you know that man that healed the leper man
Do you know that man that rode on the mule
He's the same man from down in Galilee
He's the same man from down in Galilee

I'm glad I know that man that walked on the water
I'm glad I know that man that healed the leper man
I'm glad I know that man that rode on the mule
He's the same man from down in Galilee
He's the same man from down in Galilee

Well now he's a different man that walked on the water
He's a different man that healed the leper man
He's a different man that rode on the mule
He's the same man from down in Galilee
He's the same man from down in Galilee

Well do you know that man that rode on the mule
Do you know that man that rode on the mule
Do you know that man that rode on the mule
He's the same man from down in Galilee
He's the same man from down in Galilee
