Answering Machine
Composer(s): Rupert Holmes
Performer(s): Rupert Holmes



A little while ago I went and placed a call
To tell this girl I know that she could have it all
The wedding, the ring, the whole darn thing
I was willing to tie the knot
So I called her up, and this is the answer I got

"I'm so sorry you have just reached my answering machine
I'm not in at present, I'm sure you know the whole routine
Leave your name and number, and I'll try to get back to you
You have 30 seconds to talk to me before you're through"

And I said
"Baby let's go get married, I need to hear you're mine
I am hanging on, I am hanging on, I am hanging on this line
And if I can leave one message before you go to bed
I would say to you..."

And the phone went dead

So I stepped out to buy some dog food for the cat
Of course she called about three minutes after that
Would she be my wife and share my life? 
Well of course you can write the plot
Cause she called me up, and this is the answer she got

"I'm so sorry you have just reached my answering machine
I'm not in at present, I'm sure you know the whole routine
Leave your name and number, and I'll try to get back to you
You have 30 seconds to talk to me before you're through"

And she said
"Baby I got your message, I am answering your call
I have thought it out, I have thought it out and I think that, all-in-all
If you ask if we can marry, and make it for all time then my answer is..."

and the phone went

"I'm so sorry, you have just reached my answering machine..." 

Deep River Woman
Composer(s): Lionel Richie
Performer(s): Lionel Richie; Ballroom Orch.; Ricardo Caliente



Deep River Woman
Lord I'm coming home to you
Deep River Woman
Lord I know she's waiting
Just anticipating all my love
Spent a night in LA
just another chance to see you
just you and I
Wanted you to know
that my playing days are over
'cause all I do is think of you
The writings on the wall
Deep River Woman
Lord I'm coming home to you
Deep River Woman
Lord I know she's waiting
Just anticipating all my love
I've been out in the world
I guess the fast life had me going
Now all that's changed
Finally made up my mind
'bout the one thing I've been knowing
You're the only girl
I've ever cared for in this world
Deep River Woman
Lord I'm coming home to you
Deep River Woman
Lord I know she's waiting
Just anticipating all my love
Your kind of love girl is forever
Took me a long time to realize
that I've come so far to end up going nowhere
Girl I need you by my side
Deep River Woman
Lord I'm coming home to you
Deep River Woman
Lord I know she's waiting
Just anticipating all my love
Deep River Woman
Lord I'm coming home to you
Deep River Woman
Lord I know she's waiting
Just anticipating all my love

Yes I'm here, but now I'm going away
Far away from you my lovely Linda

I remember how I met you that night
With your eyes you simply called me over
And the flames of our roaring inside
Arab music play, I felt in clover

With your piercing and you make me weak
And we danced the whole night cheek to cheek

Linda Linda, my Linda
Linda Linda, I love you
The magic of your eyes
The spirit of your soul
The presence of your love
My whole life through

Deep Purple
Composer(s): Mitchell Parish - Peter de Rose
First release by: Paul Whiteman and His Concert Orch. - 1934
Covered by multiple other artists



When the deep purple falls, over sleepy garden walls
And the stars begin to flicker in the sky
Through the mist of a memory, you wander back to me
Breathing my name with a sigh
In the still of the night, once again I hold you tight
Though you're gone, your love lives on
When moonlight beams
And as long as my heart will beat, lover, we'll always meet
Here in my deep purple dreams

Answer To The Master
Composer(s): Steve Clark - Joe Elliot - Rick Savage - Pete Willis
Performer(s): Def Leppard



When the night time unfolds 
And the memories that you hold 
Bring a light to your eyes 
Though you know it's disguise 
When the night turns to day 
You turn around and say 
Magic mirror please tell 
Is this heaven or hell? 

Answer to the master 
Can you look to the sky? 
Can you live through your lie? 
Of the thoughts you can't trace 
Which time can't erase 

To a face on the wall 
Do you often recall 
What you said on the night 
When the new full moon was rising? 
Answer to the master 
Oh yeah 

When the night time unfolds 
And the memories that you hold 
Bring a light to your eyes 
Though you know it's disguise 
When the night turns to day 
And you turn around and say 
Magic mirror please tell 
Is this heaven or hell?

Deep Inside Of You
Composer(s): Neil Diamond - Beth Nielsen Chapman
Performer(s): Neil Diamond; Beth Nielsen Chapman; Ray Grant



Good morning 
I love you
Now that you're here where you belong
I want to be the man you need
Just tell me you love me
Because I need to hear it, too
Just let me be the one you carry deep inside of you

I need you beside me; the road is so long
You run through my heart 
Like the words of a bitter-sweet song
I'd travel the whole world
Across the earth, around the sun
If I could be the one you carry deep inside of you

Without you beside me, the road is so long
You live in my heart
And it hurts when I think of you gone
I need you in my way
I have no right to love so true
But let me be the one, the one who lives inside of you
Just let me be the one you carry deep inside of you

Answer To The Laundromat Blues

(This number's bein' especially played
And dedicated to all of the women
From all of the men)

You see you women have a good thing goin'

And go down to the laundromat
An' take ya eight hours to wash 'em

And we're gonna put ya at home in the basement
And we gonna kick the door down that goes to the basement
While we can hear the washer when it stop

And baby, baby, baby, when that washer stop

Or you better have a darn good explanation!

Don't you go get whupped all on the toenails
We're gonna raise your eye lashes and whup ya some
And if ya run fast enough
We're gonna whup ya on the bottom of the feet
Ain't that right men?
Speak up for yourself! (yeah, yeah)

There will be no more goin' to the laundromat
Puttin' your clothes in there
And gettin' your girlfriend keep her eye on it
While you step out the back door

You might need it on your vacation this summer
I'd hate to see ya come up with a leg screwed off
Or a eye punched out
Yeah!

I know you don't know it babe (yeah, yeah, yeah)
But things look bad for you
Hey, I know you don't know it babe
But I'm gonna keep a close eye on you

Well, ev'ry time you go to the laundromat, baby
I want you to know, I want you to know
That I'll be there too!

Deep Inside My Heart
Composer(s): Eric Kaz - Randy Meisner
Performer(s): Randy Meisner



I stayed up all night
Waiting for you to call
But something ain't right
Night after night
I get lonely

It's been awhile
Since I've seen that look in your eyes
Now that you're gone
I can't go on
Without you

Deep inside my heart
I had a feelin' right from the start
You didn't love me
Deep inside my heart
I had a feelin' you tore apart
You didn't want me
Like I wanted you

I turned out the light
I tossed and I turned until dawn
I couldn't sleep
And just couldn't keep
From cryin'

I'll never learn
Whatever I do I get burned
You went away
Now I face the day
Without you

It's morning I open my eyes
And everything's still the same
I turn to the guy who stayed last night
And ask him: "What's your name?"

This seems to happen more and more
I love those men one and all
Each new one I meet makes heart beat faster
When I see them so strong and tall

So many men, so little time
How can I lose?
So many men, so little time
How can I choose?

They tell me I'm up to no good
I should just settle down
But I don't wanna stay with just one man
I wanna sample what's around

Feels like I'm in heaven every night
Being here with someone new
A physical thrill, a beautiful smile
And wonderful muscles too

So many men, so little time
How can I lose?
So many men, so little time
How can I choose?

So really who cares about love?
The ones that feel, take it away
For 52 weeks of every year
That's a new man every day

It's too hard a choice to make up my mind
So many men turn on my light
Still want to go some, don't want brains
Just give me their bodies tonight

So many men, so little time
How can I lose?
So many men, so little time
How can I choose?

Just to like them by the two
No, I don't want just one
The more I have, the more the fun

Ooohooohooohooo
Ooohooohooooooo

So really who cares about love?
The ones that feel, take it away
For 52 weeks of every year
That's a new man every day

The stars at night are big and bright (clap, clap, clap, clap) 
Deep in the heart of Texas 
The prairie sky is wide and high (clap, clap, clap, clap) 
deep in the heart of Texas 
The sage in bloom is like perfume (clap, clap, clap, clap) 
deep in the heart of Texas 
Reminds me of the one I love (clap, clap, clap, clap) 
deep in the heart of Texas 
The coyotes wail along the trail (clap, clap, clap, clap) 
deep in the heart of Texas 
The rabbits rush around the brush (clap, clap, clap, clap)

The cowboys cry ki yippee yi (clap, clap, clap, clap) 
deep in the heart of Texas 
The dawgies bawl and bawl and bawl (clap, clap, clap, clap) 
deep in the heart of Texas 

Answer To “Walking The Floor Over You”
Composer(s): Ernest Tubb
Performer(s): Ernest Tubb



I left you and I went away the reason is needless to say
You know that I love you but it just could never be
All I ask from of dear is don’t blame it all on me

I’m walkin’ the floor same as you
What else is there for me to do
Every time I try to sleep my heartache start anew
I’m walkin’ the floor same as you

(Ah Jimmie Short walk awhile)

Now years ago I thought that love was kind
I never had a worry on my mind
But all I’ve had is trouble since the day that we first met
No matter what I tell the world you know I love you yet

I’m walkin’ the floor same as you
What else is there for me to do
Every time I try to sleep my heartache start anew
I’m walkin’ the floor same as you

(Ah here comes Jimmie again)

I pray that you’ll know in years to come
That you’re not the only lonely one
It’s tear for tear were shedding dear no matter who’s to blame
You may learn to hate me but I’ll love you just the same

I’m walkin’ the floor same as you
What else is there for me to do
Every time I try to sleep my heartache start anew
I’m walking the floor same as you

Deep In The Darkest Night
Composer(s): Rick Kemp
Performer(s): Maddy Prior; Nick Holland; Troy Donockley



Deep in the darkest night
Under a midnight blue
Standing alone with the sea and the moon
You said that you'd come back soon
Deep in the darkest night
Deep in a memory
A fugitive on the run
Looking for somewhere to make a bed
Somewhere to lie a restless head
Deep in a memory
I'll be your harbour when there's a storm
I'll be your sunshine I'll keep you warm
I'll be your shelter in the rain and snow
Remember wherever you go
Deep in the darkest night
Dans un noir de nuit
Je n'avais rien dit
Souvenir d'un ête chaud
Souvenir de soleil et d'eau
Dans un noir de nuit
Deep in your heart you know
You're running against the wind
Taking your loneliness in your case
The same old sadness from place to place
Deep in your heart you know
I'll be your harbour when there's a storm
I'll be your sunshine I'll keep you warm
I'll be your shelter in the rain and snow
Remember wherever you go
Deep in the darkest night
Dans un noir de nuit
Dans un noir de nuit
Deep in the darkest night

Deep In A Dream
Composer(s): Eddie De Lange - James Van Heusen
Performer(s): Artie Shaw



I dim all the lights and I sink in my chair
The smoke from my cigarette fans through the air
The walls of my room fade away in the blue
And I’m deep in a dream of you

The smoke makes the stairway for you to descend
You come to my arms, may this bliss never end
For we’ll love anew just as we used to do
When I’m deep in a dream of you

Then from the ceiling, sweet music comes stealing
We glide to a lovers refrain
You’re so appealing, that I’m soon revealing
My love for you over again

My cigarette burns me, I wake with a start
My hand doesn’t hurt 
But there’s a pain in my heart
Awake or asleep, every memory I’ll keep
Deep in a dream of you

Then from the ceiling, sweet music comes stealing
We glide to a lovers refrain
You’re so appealing, that I’m soon revealing
My love for you over again

My cigarette burns me, I wake with a start
My hand doesn’t hurt 
But there’s a pain in my heart
Awake or asleep, every memory I’ll keep
Deep in a dream of you 

Answer The Phone 
Composer(s): Cindy Walker
Performer(s): Ernest Tubb
and multiple other artists



I’ve called you and I’ve called you but each time I phone
They always tell me that you’re not at home
I’ve written you letters and knocked at your door
But don’t worry darlin’ I won’t bother you no more

So Answer The Phone when it rings, darlin’
And if somebody knocks let them in
You don’t have to be afraid that it’s me
‘Cause I’ll never bother you again

I’m writing this letter to tell you goodbye
Somebody told me how you sit and cry
‘Cause you’ve found a new love since I have been gone
and wish I’d forget you and that I’d leave you alone

So Answer The Phone when it rings, darlin’
And if somebody knocks let them in
You don’t have to be afraid that it’s me
‘Cause I’ll never bother you again

Deep Blue
Composer(s): George Harrison
Performer(s): George Harrison



When sunshine is not enough
To make me feel bright
It's got me suffering in the darkness
That's so easy come by on the road-side
Of one loong life-time

It's got me deep blue
You know I'm deep blue

When you stand there, watch tired bodies
Full of sickness and pain
To show you just how helpless you really are
When you get down to the truth
It hurts me

It's got me deep blue
You know I'm deep blue

When I think of the life I'm living
Pray God help me; give me your light
So I can love you and understand
This repetition that keeps me here
Feeling deep blue

It's got me deep blue
You know I'm deep blue 

Who Was That Lady?
Composer(s): Sammy Cahn - James Van Heusen
First recording/First release by: Dean Martin - 1959



You're looking at a loser
A man who's loved and lost
A man whose most romantic bridges now have all been crossed
And still that face appears, wherever I go
I'm sure you're bored to tears
But I must know
Who was that lady?
That fabulous lady?
That lady I saw you with last night?

Tell me, was she an angel?
If she was an angel
She sure kept her wings out of sight!

Pardon my asking, but was she thrilling
And was she willing to kiss the evening away?
Say who was that lady?
I knew such a lady
And foolishly let her out of my life
So if she's the one
Please spare me the pun
I'd sure miss the fun in
"That was no lady, that was my wife"

Who was that lady?
I knew such a lady
And foolishly let her out of my life
So if she's the one
Please spare me the pun
I'd sure miss the fun in
That old crawler no joke is duller
Than that was no lady
That was my wife

Dédié À Toi
Composer(s): Ivano Fossati
Performer(s): Dalida



À tous les ringards de la terre et aux paumés comme moi
Celui à qui je voudrais plaire
À ceux qui ne m'aiment pas je dédie ceci
Aux plays boys finis
À Rosa, Rosine et à moi aussi

À qui se voit dans une glace et finalement ne se voit plus
À qui n'a pas de glace et cela revient au même
Ne se voit plus non plus
À tous les solitaires
À tous les ramasses misére et à l'amour perdu

À ceux qui ont cherché la manière et qui ne l'on pas trouvé
À la gueule que j'avais hier
Dédié à ceux qui ont souffert et n'ont pas crié
À tous les prisonniers
À ceux qui ont retrouvé la liberté
À celui qui a voulu mes levres et qui n'en a plus voulu
Dédié à ceux qui comprennent
Qu'il faut quitter la scène quand on a perdu
À l'Italie, à la nostalgie et à moi aussi

Mais cette chanson sans importance ne pourrait pas finir ainsi
Comme un petit air de danse, une simple romance sans que je la dédie
Aux amours morts que l'oubli emporte et à mol aussi
Aux amours morts que l'oubli emporte et à mol aussi
