Any Old Wind That Blows Composer(s): Dick Feller Performer(s): Johnny Cash
Lord she's restless, like cotton candy clouds that sail the day, slow and free And she possesses a mind that can't resign to stay, for long with me Though I've tried and tried to keep her tied And satisfied until she really needs me, yes I do But when that certain look comes on her face I can't replace it and she leaves me
She's a butterfly in mid July who just can't wait to try her brand new wings, on brand new things And she needs no rhyme or reason when she goes Her mind is on what lies beyond that wall And blue horizon I suppose and heaven knows She'll go sailin' off on any old wind that blows Yes she will, yes she will She'll go sailin' off on any old wind that blows
I know she needs me, about as much as I need someone else, which I don't And if need be, I swear someday I'll up and leave myself, which I won't Even if she loved another man I'd understand it more than I do But I know the only reason that she ever has for leavin' is she wants to
She's a butterfly in mid July who just can't wait to try her brand new wings, on brand new things And she needs no rhyme or reason when she goes Her mind is on what lies beyond that wall And blue horizon I suppose and heaven knows She'll go sailin' off on any old wind that blows Yes she will, yes she will She'll go sailin' off on any old wind that blows

I See A Boat On The River Composer(s): Frank Farian - Fred Jay - Helmut Rulofs Performer(s): Boney M.
He left on a boat Just to follow a dream He had to find You cant hold a man When he follows a dream Thats on his mind
I see a boat on the river Its sailing away Down to the ocean Where to I cant say
Boat on the river Its sailing away Down to the ocean Where to I cant say
I waited for him Such a very long time Dont know what for cause I should have known When he left on the boat Well meet no more
I see a boat on the river Its sailing away Down to the ocean Where to I cant say
Boat on the river Its sailing away Down to the ocean Where to I cant say
Boat on the river Its sailing away Down to the ocean Where to I cant say
Boat on the river Youre bound for the sea If you should find him Please greet him from me
There were people who came And said its really a shame Why did he take off To follow just a dream But I guess they were wrong In life youre sailing along And things dont turn out As simple as they seem
Boat on the river Its sailing away Down to the ocean Where to I cant say
I see a boat on the river Its sailing away Down to the ocean Where to I cant say
I see a boat on the river Youre bound for the sea If you should find him Please greet him from me

Demolition Man
Composer(s): Vivian Campbell - Phil Collen - Joe Elliott
Performer(s): Def Leppard
Let me loose, I just got back I was pushed and I got dragged I tasted mud, I tasted wine I've kissed the life I've left behind So say I choose to stick around I've got news for this here town I kick the ball, I catch the bus And raise the roof for all of us
Destination anywhere So far gone, I'm almost there Can't you see I can't deny I'm out of here like I'm on fire
Living like a caged-up animal, criminal Television newsman so subliminal Bringing down the walls of wonderland Just another highbrow cowboy telling me Everything and everyone and all the things I ought to be Here I am, your demolition man
Steal your car and leave a wreck Kiss your bride, I cash your check And Tyson plus I'm ripped and torn Been on the edge since I was born I kick the jukebox, change the tune I break the bank and jump the moon I sink the fleet to catch a buzz And raise a glass for all of us
Destination anywhere So far gone, I'm almost there Can't you see I can't deny I'm out of here like I'm on fire
Living like a caged-up animal, criminal Television newsman so subliminal Bringing down the walls of wonderland Just another highbrow cowboy telling me Everything and everyone and all the things I ought to be Here I am, your demolition man
I'm a beast in space, I'm an acid taste I'm a primitive gong stuffed in your face It's enough to bring you to your knees
Living like a caged-up animal, criminal Television newsman so subliminal Bringing down the walls of wonderland Just another highbrow cowboy telling me Everything, everyone and all the things I ought to be Here I am, your demolition man Living like a caged-up animal, criminal Television newsman so subliminal Bringing down the walls of wonderland Just another highbrow cowboy telling me Everything and everyone and all the things I ought to be Here I am, your demolition man
Überall auf der Welt scheint die Sonne Und das Leben erwacht von ihren Strahlen Überall suchen Menschen die Liebe Und sie glauben und hoffen für sich und für die Welt
Jede Nacht gehen Träume verloren Jeden Tag werden Wünsche neu geboren Überall auf der Welt blüh'n die Rosen Und die Wunder der Liebe gescheh'n Tag für Tag
Und auch dir und auch mir sind diese Wunder gemacht Sie gescheh'n wenn wir zwei uns begegnen Darum geh ich den Weg führt er durch Licht oder nicht Darum geh ich den Weg bis zu dir
Scheint die Zeit dir bis dahin noch weit Geh nicht traurig und leer durch das Leben
Überall auf der Welt scheint die Sonne Alle Schatten vergeh'n wenn wir uns wiederseh'n Glaube mir für uns zwei bleibt die Welt so schön Glaube mir für uns zwei bleibt die Welt so schön So schön so schön

Composer(s): Willy DeVille
First release by: Mink DeVille - 1983
Every morning Im broken Every day I die Every night I weaken And every night I cry Standing in the rain In the street outside Running down my face Tears in my eyes

Any Old Iron Composer(s): Charlie Collins - Terry Shepherd Performer(s): Peter Sellers and multiple other artists
Just a week or two ago my dear old Uncle Bill He went and kicked the bucket and he left me in his will So I went around the road to see my Auntie Jane She said, "your Uncle Bill has left you a watch and chain" So I put it on right across my derby kell The sun was shining on it and it made me look a swell I went out, strolling round about A crowd of kiddies followed me and they began to shout
"Any old iron? Any old iron? Any, any, any old iron? You look neat. Talk about a treat! You look so dapper from your napper to your feet Dressed in style, brand-new tile And your father's old green tie on But I wouldn't give you tuppence for your old watch and chain Old iron, old iron"
I won't forget the day I went to London on the spree I saw the mayor of London there That's who I went to see He came along in a carriage and a pair I shouted, "come on, boys! All throw your hats up in the air" Just then the mayor, he began to smile Pointed to my face and said, "Lor Lummy, what a dial!" Started Lord-a-mayoring, and then to my dismay He pointed to my watch and chain and shouted to me "Hey Any old iron? ..."
I shan't forget the day I married Miss Elisa Brown The way the people laughed at me, it made me feel a clown I arrived in a carriage called a hack When I suddenly discovered I'd my trousers front to back So I walked down the aisle, dressed in style The vicar took a look at me and then began to smile The organ started playing The bells began to ring The people started laughing and the choir began to sing "Any old iron? ..."
Demain L'on Se Marie Composer(s): Jacques Brel Performer(s): Jacques Brel
Puisque demain l'on se marie Apprenons la même chanson Puisque demain s'ouvre la vie Dis-moi ce que nous chanterons
Nous forcerons l'amour A bercer notre vie D'une chanson jolie Qu'à deux nous chanterons Nous forcerons l'amour Si tu le veux, ma mie A n'être de nos vies Que l'humble forgeron
Puisque demain l'on se marie Apprenons la même chanson Puisque demain s'ouvre la vie Dis-moi ce que nous y verrons
Nous forcerons nos yeux A ne jamais rien voir Que la chose jolie Qui vit en chaque chose Nous forcerons nos yeux A n'être qu'un espoir A deux nous offrirons Comme on offre une rose
Puisque demain l'on se marie Apprenons la même chanson Puisque demain s'ouvre la vie Dis-moi encore où nous irons
Nous forcerons les portes Des pays d'orient A s'ouvrir devant nous Devant notre sourire Nous forcerons, ma mie Le sourire des gens A n'être plus jamais Une joie qui soupire
Puisque demain s'ouvre la vie Ouvrons la porte à ces chansons Puisque demain l'on se marie Apprenons la même chanson
Du sollst nicht weinen Wenn ich einmal von dir gehen muß Oh, denk nicht dran, noch ist der Tag so weit Auch morgen wird die Sonne wieder scheinen Für dich und mich, genau so schön wie heut
Du sollst nicht weinen Weil die Jahre viel zu schnell vergehen Und weil dein Junge einmal groß sein wird Denk an die Jahre, die noch vor uns liegen Vergiß den Tag, der mich einst von dir führt
Du sollst nicht weinen Wenn ich einmal von dir gehen muß Oh, denk nicht dran, ich bin ja noch bei Dir Auch morgen wird die Sonne wieder scheinen Und Rosen blühen noch lang vor deiner Tür Und Rosen blühen noch lang vor deiner Tür
Demain Je Recommence Composer(s): Guy Béart Performer(s): Guy Béart
Petit à petit tout s'effiloche Tout finit Je ne reçois plus que des taloches De la vie J'ai le cur qui fait la gueule Mais je pédale encor tout seul Je me retrouve au fond de l'eau A vélo
J'ai sonné portes et portes Téléphones Pour moi les saisons sont mortes Plus personne Quand je fais la queue je suis tranquille Je choisis la mauvaise file Comme ça j'ai à faire j'attends J'ai tout le temps
Mais demain je recommence Mais demain Je vais retrouver ma chance C'est certain J'ai gardé comme une flamme Qui éclaire un peu mon âme J'ai craqué une allumette Dans ma tête
Adieu ma chance Adieu destin Je recommence Et demain reviendra le matin
Je ne suis plus depuis une paye Dans le coup Toutes ces pubs quand je me réveille Ça me rend fou Je ne sais plus ce qui se trafique En politique en musique Les nouvelles en mal en bien Ça me dit rien
Je n'ai plus de pièces de rechange Pour rouler Maintenant tout le temps ça change C'est le progrès Je l'ai cassée ma courroie Mon klaxon reste sans voix Je n'ai même plus ma voie de garage Au chômage
Mais demain je recommence Mais demain Je repars en ambulance A Cochin Ils vont me guérir bien vite Après quoi je prendrais la lutte A pied à cheval à bécane A Sainte Anne
Adieu ma chance Adieu destin Je recommence Et demain reviendra le matin
Je ne vous entends plus mes proches Mes copains Vous avez vos femmes vos mioches Je le sais bien Je ne vous entends plus les gars Dans ma tête y a du dégât Vous ne me reconnaissez plus C'est bien vu
Où es-tu ma douce ma belle Reviens-moi Toi qui me donnais des ailes Autrefois Mon cur est cuit désormais Après toi je peux plus aimer Je vais tirer un coup en l'air C'est moins cher
Mais demain je recommence Mais demain Je retrouverai la romance Les câlins Il fera chaud en plein décembre Une fille dans ma chambre Un lit à deux jamais froid Bien étroit
Bonjour ma chance Bonjour destin Je recommence Et demain reviendra le matin
Mais demain je recommence Mais demain Je vais retrouver ma chance C'est certain J'ai gardé comme une flamme Qui éclaire un peu mon âme J'ai craqué une allumette Dans ma tête Aimer encore, souffrir encore Toujours... Demain il fera jour Demain...

Demain il fera jour C'est quand tout est perdu Que tout commence Demain il fera jour Après l'amour Un autre amour commence Un petit gars viendra en sifflotant Demain... Il aura les bras chargés de printemps Demain... Les cloches sonneront dans votre ciel Demain... Tu verras la lune de miel briller Demain... Car demain Tu vas sourire encore Aimer encore, souffrir encore Toujours... Demain il fera jour
Dans ton cur brisé pour toujours Il reste encore de l'amour Tu crois ta douleur si profonde Que ta vie va s'arrêter là... La plus belle fille du monde Peut toujours donner plus qu'elle a...
Demain il fera jour C'est quand tout est perdu Que tout commence Demain il fera jour Après l'amour Un autre amour commence Un petit gars viendra en sifflotant Demain... Il aura les bras chargés de printemps Demain... Les cloches sonneront dans votre ciel Demain... Tu verras la lune de miel briller Demain... Car demain Tu vas sourire encore Aimer encore, souffrir encore Toujours... Demain il fera jour Demain...
