Anything New Gets Old (Except My Love For You) Composer(s): Don Gibson Performer(s): Don Gibson
Anything new gets old except my love for you It goes on and on it's forever true I'll forever love you oh my whole life through Anything new gets old except my love for you
Anything new gets old except the way you smile The tenderness of every kiss and those pretty blue eyes I'll forever love you there'll be no one new Anything new gets old except my love for you
You're the only good thing to me goodbye to the blues and misery No more lonely nights being so blue no more lonely hours without you Anything new gets old ...
Desert Pete
Composer(s): Billy Edd Wheeler
Performer(s): The Kingston Trio
and multiple other artists
I was travellin' West a buckskin on my way to a cattle run Cross a little cactus desert under a hot blisterin' sun I was thirsty down to my toenails, stopped to rest me on a stump But I tell ya I just couldn't believe it when I saw that water pump I took it to be a mirage at first, it'll fool a thirsty man Then I saw a note stuck in a bakin' powder can "This pump is old", the note began, "but she works so give'r a try" "I put a new sucker washer in 'er, you may find the leather dry"
"You've got to prime the pump, you must have faith and believe" "You've got to give of yourself 'fore you're worthy to receive" "Drink all the water you can hold, wash your face, cool your feet" "Leave the bottle full for others, Thank You kindly, Desert Pete"
"Yeah, you'll have to prime the pump, work that handle like there's a fire" "Under that rock you'll find some water I left in a bitters jar" "Now there's just enough to prime it with so dontcha go drinkin' first" "You just pour it in and pump like mad, buddy, you'll quench your thirst"
"You've got to prime the pump, you must have faith and believe" "You've got to give of yourself 'fore you're worthy to receive" "Drink all the water you can hold, wash your face, cool your feet" "Leave the bottle full for others, Thank You kindly, Desert Pete"
Well I found that jar and I tell ya nothin' was ever prettier to my eye And I was tempted strong to drink it, cuz that pump looked mighty dry But the note went on "have faith my friend, there's water down below" "You got to give until you get-I'm the one who ought to know" So I poured in the jar and I started pumpin' and I heard a beautiful sound Of water bubblin' and splashin' up outta that hole in the ground I took off my shoes and I drunk my fill of that cool refreshing treat I thank the Lord and thank the pump and I thank old Desert Pete
"You've got to prime the pump, you must have faith and believe" "You've got to give of yourself 'fore you're worthy to receive" "Drink all the water you can hold, wash your face, cool your feet" "Leave the bottle full for others, Thank You kindly, Desert Pete"
"Drink all the water you can hold, wash your face, cool your feet" "Leave the bottle full for others, Thank You kindly, Desert Pete"

Desert Moon Composer(s): Dennis DeYoung Performer(s): Dennis DeYoung
"Is this the train to Desert Moon?" was all she said But I knew I'd heard that stranger's voice before I turned to look into her eyes, but she moved away She was standing in the rain Trying hard to speak my name They say first love never runs dry
The waiter poured our memories into tiny cups We stumbled over words we longed to hear We talked about the dreams we'd lost, or given up When a whistle cut the night And shook silence from our lives As the last train rolled towards the dune
Those summer nights when we were young We bragged of things we'd never done We were dreamers, only dreamers And in our haste to grow too soon We left our innocence on Desert Moon We were dreamers, only dreamers On Desert Moon, on Desert Moon On Desert Moon, Desert Moon
I still can hear the whisper of the summer night It echoes in the corners of my heart The night we stood and waited for the desert train All the words we meant to say All the chances swept away Still remain on the road to the dune
Those summer nights when we were young We bragged of things we'd never done We were dreamers, only dreamers Moments pass, and time moves on But dreams remain for just as long As there's dreamers, all the dreamers On Desert Moon, on Desert Moon On Desert Moon, Desert Moon
Anything Is Nice If It Comes From Dixieland Composer(s): Milton Ager - Grant Clarke - George W. Meyer Performer(s): Johnny Maddox
Every winter you will notice that the birdies in the sky To the south will always fly Now perhaps you're wondering why It's a land of sunshine And the only place a real wise bird should be There's a lot of good things waiting there For you and me
Dixie, Dixie is a garden far away from snow and ice It's a perfect paradise And the home of everything nice Everybody loves it 'Cause they know about it's many different charms Like a mother she will welcome you With open arms
Just to make our clothes the cotton grows In dear old Alabam Each hungry mouth looks to the South For sweet Virginia ham From Tennessee comes melody That's played by ev'ry band And if you're talking of chicken Oh, Maryland! Louisiana sugar is sweeter than the rose Just thank old Carolina That's where the Bull Durham grows If you're dreaming of a girl to love That's the place to win her hand Take my advice Anything is nice If it comes from Dixieland
Deseo Composer(s): Luis Eduardo Aute Performer(s): Luis Eduardo Aute
Desea es el uno deseo es la idea deseo es el surco que deja una estrella Deseo es espejo deseo es enigma deseo es el verbo que engendra la vida Deseo es la pregunta que no tiene respuesta deseo, deseo deseo es... deseo es... ese amor que no quiere ser un sentimiento si no es para observarse en el conocimiento deseo es... deseo es... Deseo es eterno deseo es principio deseo es encuentro en el infinito Deseo es el fuego deseo es el rayo deseo es el beso de signos contrarios Deseo es la pregunta...
Wenn Erst Der Abend Kommt Performer(s): Peter Alexander & Karl Loubebr>
Wenn erst der Abend kommt und wenn es dunkel wird dann bist du immer so allein Dann wird das Herz dir eng und du hast Angst davor es könnt dein Leben dann so sein Ich hab' es nie dir gesagt doch mir geht's grade so wie dir
Und wenn eine Tür geht dann bild' ich mir ein du könnt'st es sein Wenn erst der Abend und wenn es dunkel wird dann tritt dein Schatten zu mir ein Das Leben rings um mich her das ist so fremd mir und so feind doch wenn eine Tür geht dann bild' ich mir ein du könnt'st es sein Wenn erst der Abend kommt und wenn es dunkel wird dann bin ich immer so allein
Deseo Composer(s): Pedro Guera Performer(s): Juan Carlos Baglietto; Pedro Guerra
Te seguiré hasta el final te buscaré en todas partes bajo la luz de la sombra en los dibujos del aire Te seguiré hasta el final te pediré de rodillas que te desnudes amor te mostraré mis heridas
Y con las luces del alba antes que todos despierten se hará ceniza el deseo me marcharé para siempre
Te seguiré hasta el final entre los musgos del bosque te pediré tantas veces que hagamos nuestra la noche Te seguiré hasta el final con el tesón del acero te buscaré por la lluvia para mojarme en tu beso
Y con las luces del alba antes que todos despierten se hará ceniza el deseo me marcharé para siempre

Anything I dream is possible Especially when Im Dreaming of you Nothing in this worlds impossible It sounds a little crazy but its true

Still anything I dream is possible But only you can make it all come true

Desencontro Composer(s): Chico Buarque Performer(s): Chico Buarque; and various other artists
A sua lembrança me dói tanto Eu canto pra ver Se espanto esse mal Mas só sei dizer Um verso banal Fala em você Canta você É sempre igual
Sobrou desse nosso desencontro Um conto de amor Sem porto final Retrato sem cor Jogado aos meus pés E saudades fúteis Saudades frágeis Meros papéis
Não sei se você ainda é a mesma Ou se cortou os cabelos Rasgou o que é meu Se ainda tem saudades E sofre como eu Ou tudo já passou Já tem um novo amor Já me esqueceu

Desden
Composer(s): Carlos Gardel - Mario Battistella
Performer(s): Carlos Gardel; Rozenda Bernal; Mayel Varrera
El día que comparezcas ante el tribunal de Dios a dar cuenta de mi vida que me complicaste vos el día que francamente tenga yo que declarar la verdad pura y palpable que a Dios no puede escapar y le digas que he faltado a su Ley de mala fe al hacer de vos mi culto al amarte más que a Él que robé por tu cariño que maté ciego de amor ¡Pueda ser que el Dios piadoso quiera darme su perdón!
Desdeñé mi vida entera en la hoguera de tu amor esperando lo que fuera sin decirte ni siquiera que es mi pena y mi dolor Sin embargo ante el Eterno será el mismo mi desdén y en mi amor profundo y tierno por seguirte hasta el Infierno yo despreciaré el Edén
Pero el día de tu juicio yo no sé qué le dirás cuando sepan que has pecado por capricho y vanidad cuando sientas la mirada penetrante del Señor que te llegará hasta el alma como un rayo escrutador y te acuse tu conciencia al mirar aquel puñal que vos misma tan cobarde le entregaste a mi rival que, no contenta con eso me mandaste a la prisión ¡Por más que vos te arrepientas no podrás tener perdón!
Anything Goes Composer(s): Cole Porter First performance by: Ethel Merman - 1934 Covered by multiple other artists
Times have changed And weve ofter rewound the clock Since the puritans got a shock When they landed on Plymouth rock If today any shock they might try to stem stead of landing of Plymouth rock Plymouth rock would land on them
In olden days a glimpse of stocking Was looked on as something shocking But now God knows Anything goes
Good authors to Who once knew better words Now only use four letter words Writing prose Anyhting goes
If driving fast cars you like If low bars you like If old hymns you like If bare limbs you like If Mae West you like Or me undressed you like Why nobody will oppose
When every night The set thats smart Is intruding on nudist parties In studios Anything goes
When Mrs. Ned McClean God bless her Can get Russian reds to yes her Than I suppose Anything goes
When Rockafeller still can hoard Enough money to let Max Gordon Produce his shows Anything goes
The world has gone mad today And goods bad today And blacks white today And days night today And that gent today You gave a cent today Once owned several châteaux
When folks Who still can ride in Jitneys Find out Vanderbilts and Whitneys Lack baby cloes Anything goes
When Sam Goldwyn Can with great conviction Instruct Anna Sten in diction Than Anna shows Anything goes
When you hear that Lady Mendl standing up Now turns a handspring landing up On her toes Anything goes
Just think of those shocks youve got And those knocks youve got And those blues youve got From those news youve got And those pains youve got (if any brains youve got) From those little radios
So Mrs. R. With all her trimmins Can broadcast a bed from Simmons Cause Franklin knows Anything goes
Treat the youths right Instead of putting up a fight 'Cause if you treat the youths right You could be sitting on a bomb
I won't go hither from the first resurrection I want my field in the second resurrection I won't go hither from the first generation I won't be real to the fifth generation
Treat the youths right Instead of giving us a fight Treat the youths right Or you'll been playin' with dynamite
Sucka treat the youths right, right, right, right Instead of putting up a fight And if you treat the youths right Or you'll been playin' with dynamite
I want protect them from the ways and bullets No, we dream through the ways and solins I want protect them from the high school students Now, we dream through the kids and violence
Llueve, tras la ventana y yo en la cama sin poder dormir Llueve, de madrugada sobre mi almohada llueve por ti Llueve, llueve, llueve sobre mi... y en mi corazón porque no estás aquí Siempre llueve, llueve Llueve... y no podré esperar el sol porque hay nubes de dolor aquí... Y en tu ventana sentirás la lluvia y no te acordarás de mí Cae la lluvia de invierno y canta en los techos sobre Madrid una canción de silencios de agua y de viento que viene a mí Llueve, llueve, llueve sobre mí
Anything For You From the show : A Dangerous Maid - 1921 Composer(s): Ira Gershwin - George Gershwin Performer(s): Vinton Freedley
I've one aim in life And that is winning you If you'll be my wife There's nothing I won't do To bring you joy, dear Yes, I'm the boy, dear Who'd do the darndest all he Could to be your Walter Raleigh
Just tell me what to do I'll more than see it through Dear, I'll do anything for you I'll buy insurance from your brother I'll even learn to like your mother With you I'll always brave The bargain sales you crave I'll be your everlasting slave And if the cook should get too frisky Although the task is rather risky You'll find that I, myself Will tell her she is through Dear, I'll do anything for you
I'll let you choose my hats And pick out my cravats You'll be my connoisseur of spats I'll even smoke cigars you buy me And always pay your bills when they eye me You'll order all you see You'll charge it C.O.D. And never hear a word from me Then what is more, dear, for good measure All your father's jokes I'll treasure I'm going to laugh at them Until I'm black-and-blue Dear, I'll do anything for you
Desde Dónde Composer(s): Horacio Guarany Performer(s): Horacio Guarany
Desde dónde el tiempo se hace macho Desde dónde las manos quedan ciegas de tanto hachar y hachar el monte ajeno Desde dónde no queda ni un solo juez o Comisario amigo Desde dónde no queda ni una lagrima que salga al alba a despertar lo humano Desde dónde la tierra es malparida que sólo da algodón que nunca abriga! Dónde los niños quedan ciegos para no ver el llanto de la madre Dónde las hembras malparen bajo un techo se sacuden la sangre y nuevamente al yugo Desde dónde La Forestal te arranca con sus garfios de hambre en hambre, el intestino Donde la boca reseca de tabaco amargo vomita el odio en cuajaron de sangre Desde allí Desde el remoto trajinar del Chaco me viene arando este canto hecho alarido!
Anyone's Daughter Composer(s): Ritchie Blackmore - Ian Gillan - Roger Glover - Jon Lord - Ian Paice Performer(s): Deep Purple
Well I stood under your bedroom window throwing up a brick No one came, I threw one more, that really did the trick Your daddy came and banged my head, he said what kind of man Is this that's hanging 'round my girl? he threw me in the can You're a farmer's daughter, you're a farmer's daughter Why do I always get the kinda girl I didn't oughta get? I won't get no more eggs and water Now I've laid the farmer's daughter
Imagine I was a full-grown man and I could talk just right Could I come and see you here and do this every night? Wham! The door comes crashing down, your daddy's face all pale Says come with me you hairy bum, I'll put you in my jail You're a judge's daughter, you're a judge's daughter Why do I always get the kinda girl I didn't oughta get? Now I'm getting jail and torture 'Cos I made the judge's daughter Yes I did! It was nice!
It seems they're screaming law and order When I go with anyone's daughter
Woman I should like some peace and daddy hold your tongue I think you're gonna die of fright when I tell you what I've done I can hear your tales and lies, you say I'm dumb and scraggy But man this dumb and scraggy is your daughter's baby's daddy She's a lucky daughter, such a lucky daughter Why did I always get the kinda girl I didn't wanna get? Now I've got what I always fought for 'Cos I've married a rich man's daughter Ha! What d'ya think of that?
