By the rivers of Babylon,where we sat down
Yeaaaaeah we wept, remembered Zion (2x)

When the wicked carried us away in capitivity
Requered from us a song
Now, how shall we sing the Lord's song in a strange land

Sunny, yesterday my life was filled with rain
Sunny, you smiled at me and really eased the pain
The dark days are gone and the bright days are here
my sunny one shines so sincere
Sunny, one so true, I love you

There lived a certain man in Russia long ago
He was big and strong, in his eyes a flaming glow
most people looked at him with terror and with fear
But the Moscow chicks he was such a lovely dear
He could preach the bible like a preacher, full of extasy and fire
But, he also was a kind of teacher in them put desire

Ra ra Rasputin
Lover of the russian queen
They put some poison in his wine
Ra ra Rasputin,
Russia's greatest love machine
He drank it all an' set up in fire

Ra ra Rasputin
lover of the Russian queen
they did'nt quit, they wanted his head
Ra ra Rasputin
russia's greatest love machine
An' so they shot him 'til he was dead

O those Russians

I feel uptight on a Saturday night
Nine o' clock, the radio's the only light
I hear my song and it pulls me through
Comes on strong, tells me what I got to do
I got to

Get up
Everybody's gonna move their feet
Get down
Everybody's gonna leave their seat
You gotta lose your mind in Detroit Rock City

Get up
Everybody's gonna move their feet
Get down
Everybody's gonna leave their seat

Getting late
I just can't wait
Ten o'clock and I know I gotta hit the road
First I drink, then I smoke
Start up the car, and I try to make the midnight show

Get up
Everybody's gonna move their feet
Get down
Everybody's gonna leave their seat

Movin' fast, doin' 95
Hit top speed but I'm still movin' much too slow
I feel so good, I'm so alive
I hear my song playin' on the radio
It goes

Get up
Everybody's gonna move their feet
Get down
Everybody's gonna leave their seat

Twelve o'clock, I gotta rock
There's a truck ahead, lights starin' at my eyes
Oh my God, no time to turn
I got to laugh 'cause I know I'm gonna die
Why

Get up
Everybody's gonna move their feet
Get up
Everybody's gonna leave their seat

I want to go home, I want to go home
Oh Lord, I want to go home

Last night I went to sleep in Detroit city
And I dreamed about those cotton fields and home
I dreamed about my mother, dear old papa, sister and brother
And I dreamed about that girl, who's been waitin' for so long

I want to go home, I want to go home
Oh Lord, I want to go home

Home folks think I'm big in Detroit city
From the letters that I write they think I'm fine
But by day I make the cars, and by night I make the bars
If only they could read between the lines

I want to go home, I want to go home
Oh Lord, I want to go home

You know, I rode a freight train north to Detroit city
And after all these years I find I've just been wasting my time
So I think I'll take my foolish pride, put it on a southbound freight and ride
Go on back to the ones I left, who've been waitin' for so long

I want to go home, I want to go home
Oh Lord, I want to go home

Now when school is over
And the weekend's come
My mind's made up
To have some fun

Hurry up and put on

Gonna lose my blues

Well, as soon as I get
To the sugar shop
I'm gonna grab my baby
And start a hop

Dancing and a jumping
And a carrying on
When the music stops
I'll still be gone

When the hop is over
To the house, I go
I love my baby
And I tell her so

We kiss goodnight
And my head, I lose
And I bound away
In my rocking shoes

I'm gonna rock
(Rock in rocking shoes)
I call her again
And I tell her the news
We'll rock
(Rock in rocking shoes)
Oh, we're gonna dance away
Oh, we're gonna dance away
Oh, we're gonna dance away

Detrás Del Muro De Los Lamentos
Composer(s): Fito Paéz
Performer(s): Fito Paéz



Gota que cae sobre el cielo, no besa el suelo
lluvia que cae del cielo, y yo la bebo
Ah... tu corazón

desnudo mar abierto, no sopla el viento
todo resulto un juego, que quita el miedo

y cuando llega la cura
calma el a oro la luna
y yo que andaba ciego
cayo el cielo y no beso el suelo
y se detuvo el tiempo
detrás del Muro de los Lamentos

Todo lo que hicimos
la mentira y la verdad
todo lo que hicimos
sigue vivo en un lugar

Todo poco a poco
va dejando de importar
todo menos esos paraísos en el mar
y navegar y navegar y navegar...

Appetite
Composer(s): Paddy McAloon
Performer(s): Prefab Sprout



Please be careful is never careful
Till it hears the gun
She will always pay the bills
For the having big fun
He talks so well, what can you do
It's pretty plain he means it too
I don't want to sell you lines
I only mean to do you right
But I'm a simple slave of appetite
I'm a poor slave of appetite
Hunger howls, hungers red
Hungers stays till it's fed
Then it some h-h-how fades
Then it somehow leaves your sight
Depending on it's appetite
Depending on your appetite
So if you take - Then put back good
If you steal - be Robin Hood
If your eyes are wanting all you see
Then I think I'll name you after me
I think I'll call you appetite
Here she is with two small problems
And the best part of the blame
Wishes she could call him heartache
But it's not a boy's name
If you grow up to be, just like him, just like me
You're fighting for exclusive rights
For honeymoons each sleepless night
In which case I'll call you appetite
Yes I think I'll call you appetite
So if you take - Then put back good
If you steal - be Robin Hood
If your eyes are wanting all you see
Then I think I'll name you after me
I think I'll call you appetite
So if you take - Then put back good
If you steal - be Robin Hood
If your eyes are wanting all you see
Then I think I'll name you after me
I think I'll call you appetite
Then I think I'll name you after me
I think I'll call you appetite 

Detour Ahead
Composer(s): Lou Carter - Herb Ellis - Johnny Freigo
Performer(s): Billie Holiday



Smooth road, clear day
But why am I the only one
Travelin' this way
How starnge the road you love
Should be so easy
Can there be a detour ahead

Wake up, slow down
Before you crash in that yard
None of that plown
You fool, you're headin'
In the wrong direction
Can't you see the detour ahead

The further you travel
The harder to unraffle
The way he spins around you
Turn back while there is time
Can't you see the danger sign
Subshoulders surround you

Smooth road, clear night
Oh lucky me, that suddenly
I saw the light
I'm turniung back away
From all this trouble

Smooth road, smooth road
No detour ahead

Ein Mensch Ohne Namen
((Adapted from: A Horse With No Name (America) - 1971))
Composer(s): Dewey Bunnell
Performer(s): P. Bernd



Am ersten Tag meiner Reise
sah ich Bäume rings umher
Und ich hörte Stimmen singen
zwischen Gras und Blättermeer
Der Nebel der Nacht und der Morgentau
sponnen Netzte im Gesicht
Die Vögel lasen aus meiner Hand
ich vergass den Lärm der Stadt
Da sind nur Erde und Wasser
und ein Mensch ohne Namen 
die sich immer in die Augen seh’n
Es sind Freunde, sie brauchen keinen Namen
weil sie sich sowieso oihne Worte versteh’n

Nach zwei Tagen konnt‘ ich Berge seh’n
und die Luft war wie Kristall
Ich träumte, es fiel aus dem Wasserfall
eine Blume in meinen Mund
Und ein alter Zwerg kam aus der Höhle im Berg
und baute mir aus Moos ein Bett
Da sind nur Erde und Wasser
und ein Mensch ohne Namen 
die sich immer in die Augen seh’n
Es sind Freunde, sie brauchen keinen Namen
weil sie sich sowieso ohne Worte versteh’n

Dann am Ende war es rings um mich leer
aus den Bergen floss nun ein Meer
Und ich spürte das Salz auf meiner Haut
der Staub war aufgetaut
Im Sand sah ich das Leben
das sich unter der Wüste der Wellen
ein Reich gebaut
Keine Menschen können je hinein
leben weiter in ihrem Meeresstein
Da sind nur Erde und Wasser
und ein Mensch ohne Namen 
die sich immer in die Augen seh’n
Es sind Freunde, sie brauchen keinen Namen
weil sie sich sowieso oihne Worte versteh’n

Detour, there's a muddy road ahead, detour
Paid no mind to what it said
Detour, oh these bitter things I find
Should have read
That detour sign

Headed down life's crooked road, lots of things I never knowed
Because of me not knowin', I now pine
Trouble got in the trail, spent the next 5 years in jail
Should have read (should have read) that detour sign

Detour, there's a muddy road ahead, detour
Paid no mind to what it said
Detour, oh these bitter things I find
Should have read
That detour sign

When I got right to the place where it said "About Face"
I thought that all my worries were behind
But the farther I go, more sorrow I know
Should have read (should have read)
That detour sign

Detour, there's a muddy road ahead, detour
Paid no mind to what it said
Detour, oh these bitter things I find
Should have read
That detour sign

When I got stuck in the mud all my hopes dropped with a thud
I guess that my heart strings are made of twine
Have no willpower to get from the hole that I'm in yet
Should have read (should have read) that detour sign

Detour, there's a muddy road ahead, detour
Paid no mind to what it said
Detour, oh these bitter things I find
Should have read
That detour sign

Should have read that detour sign
Should have read that detour sign (that detour sign)

The Busiest Memory In Town
Composer(s): Geoffrey Morgan
Performer(s): Dickey Lee; Ronnie Milsap; Ernest Tubb



You're with me from my first cup of coffee
Right up till that last beer goes down
You're on my mind so I can't sleep till morning 
You're the busiest mem'ry in town
Had a talk last night with your new love 
But then he mentioned a few more you'd found
So we drank a toast to the next one and the busiest mem'ry in town

Babe sometimes you simply amaze me
With how fast you spread that heartache around
It must be hello, I love you, I'm leaving 
You're the busiest mem'ry in town

Babe sometimes you simply amaze me...
It must be hello, I love you, I'm leaving 
You're the busiest mem'ry in town

Deteriorata!
Composer(s): Christopher Guest - Tony Hendra
Performer(s): National Lampoon; Norman Rose



You are a fluke
Of the universe
You have no right to be here...
Deteriorata! Deteriorata!
Go placidly
Amid the noise and waste
And remember what comfort there may be
In owning a piece thereof
Avoid quiet and passive persons
Unless you are in need of sleep
Ro-tate your tires
Speak glowingly of those greater than yourself
And heed well their advice
Even though they be turkeys
Know what to kiss... and when!
Consider that two wrongs never make a right
But that three... do
Wherever possible, put people on hold
Be comforted that in the face of all aridity and disillusionment
And despite the changing fortunes of time
There is always a big future in computer maintenance
You are a fluke
Of the universe
You have no right to be here
And whether you can hear it or not
The universe is laughing behind your back
Remember the Pueblo
Strive at all times to bend, fold, spindle and mutilate
Know yourself
If you need help, call the FBI
Exercise caution in your daily affairs
Especially with those persons closest to you
That lemon on your left, for instance
Be assured that a walk through the ocean of most souls
Would scarcely get your feet wet
Fall not in love therefore
It will stick to your face
Gracefully surrender the things of youth
The birds, clean air, tuna, Taiwan
And let not the sands of time
Get in your lunch
Hire people with hooks
For a good time call 606-4311
Ask for "Ken"
Take heart amid the deepening gloom
That your dog is finally getting enough cheese
And reflect that whatever misfortune may be your lot
It could only be worse in Milwaukee
You are a fluke
Of the universe
You have no right to be here
And whether you can hear it or not
The universe is laughing behind your back
Therefore, make peace with your god
Whatever you conceive him to be
Hairy thunderer, or cosmic muffin
With all its hopes, dreams, promises and urban renewal
The world continues to deteriorate
Give up!
You are a fluke
Of the universe
You have no right to be here
And whether you can hear it or not
The universe is laughing behind your back

Willy Jones
Composer(s): Buck Owens)
Performer(s): Susan Raye; Leslie Morrisett; Sylvie



Met a boy named Willie Jones
Comes from the wrong side of town
Daddy said he ain't no good 
Don't want him hanging around
Mama said that I'm too young to know what I feel
But I know I love Willy Jones and I always will
Willy Jones, it's you and me against all the world
I don't care what people, say I'm gonna be your girl
Just because our love is young, don't mean it's not real
God knows I love Willy Jones and I always will

Hammer nails and puppy dog tails is what they call Willy Jones
Tambourines and guitar strings don't make us all wrong
Don't do this and don't do that, has got my future looking dim
Oh Willy Jones can't come to me 
I'm gonna go to him
Willy Jones it's you and me...
Willy Jones it's you and me...

Não adianta nem tentar me esquecer
Durante muito tempo em sua vida eu vou viver
Detalhes tão pequenos de nós dois
São coisas muito grandes pra esquecer
E a toda hora vão estar presentes
Você vai ver
 
Se um outro cabeludo aparecer na sua rua
E isto lhe trouxer saudades minhas
A culpa é sua
O ronco barulhento do seu carro
A velha calça desbotada ou coisa assim
Imediatamente você vai lembrar de mim
 
Eu sei que um outro deve estar falando ao seu ouvido
Palavras de amor como eu falei
Mas eu duvido
Duvido que ele tenha tanto amor
E até os erros do meu português ruim
E nessa hora você vai lembrar de mim
 
À noite envolvida no silêncio do seu quarto
Antes de dormir você procura o meu retrato
Mas na moldura não sou eu quem lhe sorri
Mas você vê o meu sorriso mesmo assim
E tudo isso vai fazer você lembrar de mim
Se alguém tocar seu corpo como eu
Não diga nada
Não vá dizer meu nome sem querer à pessoa errada
Pensando ter amor nesse momento
Desesperada você tenta até o fim
E até nesse momento você vai lembrar de mim
 
Eu sei que esses detalhes vão sumir na longa estrada
Do tempo que transforma todo amor em quase nada
Mas quase também é mais um detalhe
Um grande amor não vai morrer assim
Por isso de vez em quando você vai
Vai lembrar de mim

I broke your heart dear, I was untrue
And now I've lost you, what can I do
Fate played its hand, dear, though we did try
Too late to worry, too blue to cry
Our love is ended, you say we're through
You found a new love that's good to you
I hope you're happy, for I'll get by
Too late to worry, too blue to cry
We made our vows, dear, to never part
We laughed, we loved then we crossed our hearts
I was unfaithful, so here am I
Too late to worry, too blue to cry
I've played around, dear, I've had my way
But now I find, dear, I've had to pay
I'll always love you as days go by
Too late to worry, too blue to cry
Upon my pillow last night I lay
I dreamed of bygones and I did pray
But it's all over, we've said goodbye
Too late to worry, too blue to cry

I will find a way to move on
Discontent had its day the pleasure's gone
If you ask me to describe
What I could want with all I've got
I'd say good days and thank you's
Instead of all these question marks

'Cause when I found you
I thought my life was charmed
And we'd be safe from what
Has happened now has happened now

Apology I'm Sorry Apology I'm Sorry
Apology I'm Sorry But I Have No Regrets

No one knows just why I can't stay
Starting over's alright the end so far away
I know I seem careless
My moods they change like the weather
So I ask your forgiveness
While I pull myself together
In the meantime
I live I work I wait I hope
I still have faith
That what was mine can still be mine

Apology I'm Sorry Apology I'm Sorry
Apology I'm Sorry But I Have No Regrets

Performer(s): Agnetha Fältskog



Det handlar om kärlek
Om love och amore
Det handlar om just det som alltid är på gång
I varje nyfödd sång

Det ligger i luften
När han möter henne
I leenden och blickar och när händer möts
Och bakom alla ord som sägs

Det handlar om kärlek
Om love och amore
Och drabbas man så har man ingen tanke på
Nåt annat än sin vän

Ja nog vet vi det du och jag
Här rår kärleken natt och dag
Och varje stund du är borta från mig
Vänder var tanke tillbaka till dig

Det handlar om kärlek
Om love och amore
Det är en gudagåva vi har fått vi två
Den ska vi vårda ömt

Oh vad skönt det känns
Livet ler
Härligt utan gräns
Allt som sker

Det handlar om kärlek!

Composer(s): Bobbie Ericson - Eric Sandström
Performer(s): Alice Babs



Det är vår 
Varje år 
blir det vår 
Och en värmande sol 
väcker upp allt som somnat en gång i fjol 

Det är vår i luften i dag 
Det är vår, så är naturens lag 
Och västanvinden 
som kysser kinden 
viskar det är vår 
Det är vår i sinnet i dag 
Det är vår, det är av välbehag 
Som himlen gråter 
och solen åter 
säger det är vår 
Ur den svartaste mull 
smyger våren på tå 
för små gullvivors skull 
och för blåsippor små 
Det är vår i hjärtat i dag 
Det är vår, o ljuva obehag 
Som blodet bränner 
var gång vi känner 
känner det är vår 

Ur den svartaste mull 
smyger våren på tå 
För små gullvivors skull 
och för blåsippor små 
Det är vår i hjärtat i dag 
Det är vår, o ljuva obehag 
Som blodet bränner 
var gång vi känner 
känner det är vår
