    Apple Scruffs
    Composer(s): George Harrison
    Performer(s): George Harrison



    Now I’ve watched you sitting there
    Seen the passers-by all stare
    Like you have no place to go
    But there’s so much they don’t know about apple scruffs

    You’ve been stood around for years
    Seen my smiles and touched my tears
    How it’s been a long, long time
    And how you’ve been on my mind, my apple scruffs

    Apple scruffs, apple scruffs
    How I love you, how I love you

    In the fog and in the rain
    Through the pleasures and the pain
    On the step outside you stand
    With your flowers in your hand, my apple scruffs

    While the years they come and go
    Now, your love must surely show me
    That beyond all time and space
    We’re together face to face, my apple scruffs

    Apple scruffs, apple scruffs
    How I love you, how I love you

    Deus Lhe Pague
    Composer(s): Chico Buarque
    Performer(s): Chico Buarque; Os Paralamas; Elis Regina



    Por esse pão pra comer, por esse chão pra dormir
    A certidão pra nascer e a concessão pra sorrir
    Por me deixar respirar, por me deixar existir
    Deus lhe pague

    Pelo prazer de chorar e pelo ``estamos aí''
    Pela piada no bar e o futebol pra aplaudir
    Um crime pra comentar e um samba pra distrair
    Deus lhe pague

    Por essa praia, essa saia, pelas mulheres daqui
    O amor malfeito depressa, fazer a barba e partir
    Pelo domingo que é lindo, novela, missa e gibi
    Deus lhe pague

    Pela cachaça de graça que a gente tem que engolir
    Pela fumaça, desgraça, que a gente tem que tossir
    Pelos andaimes, pingentes, que a gente tem que cair
    Deus lhe pague

    Por mais um dia, agonia, pra suportar e assistir
    Pelo rangido dos dentes, pela cidade a zunir
    E pelo grito demente que nos ajuda a fugir
    Deus lhe pague

    Pela mulher carpideira pra nos louvar e cuspir
    E pelas moscas-bicheiras a nos beijar e cobrir
    E pela paz derradeira que enfim vai nos redimir
    Deus lhe pague

    Apple Of Your Daddy's Eye
    Composer(s): Peter Cetera - Jack Conrad - Michael Gore
    Performer(s): Peter Cetera



    I remember when you were born
    I felt like one lucky
    Son of a gun

    And when you turned into two
    I was so happy
    When you said I love you

    Held you in my arms so tight
    I'd never forget
    The best years of my life

    Apple of your daddy's eye
    Wanna be the one to hold you in the night
    Apple of your daddy's eye
    Oh, oh sleep tight
    Don't you worry gonna be alright

    I remember when you were three
    You were so lovely
    So very pretty

    And when you turned into four
    I finally realized
    What God put her here for

    Apple of your daddy's eye
    Wanna be the one to hold you in the night
    Apple of your daddy's eye
    Oh, oh sleep tight
    Don't you worry gonna be alright

    If I had my way
    Time would stand still
    You'd stay as sweet as you are
    But time waits for no one
    It never will
    Your gonna leave me soon enough
    I'm just sad 'cause you're growing up

    Held you in my arms so tight
    I'd never forget
    The best years of my life

    Apple of your daddy's eye
    Wanna be the one to hold you in the night
    Apple of your daddy's eye
    Oh, oh sleep tight
    Don't you worry gonna be alright

    Don't stop ever lovin' me because
    You're the apple of your daddy's eye

    (repeat)

    Deuces Wild Composer(s): Ray Barr - Frankie Laine - Mike Oatman Performer(s): Frankie Laine



    (Deuces wild, deuces wild)
    He came my way to play the game
    (Up and down the river, lookin' all the while)
    For a man who plays poker with deuces wild
    (He's the man who plays poker with deuces wild)

    When I was just a lad, before I turned bad
    No more than the age of ten
    I heard my poor Ma, pleading with my Pa
    "Please don't go gamblin' again"

    Well-known in New Orleans, and along the river streams
    As destiny's gamblin' child
    And tattooed on his arm he had a good luck charm
    The words were deuces wild

    Deuces wild, deuces wild
    He came my way to play the game
    (He's the man who plays poker with deuces wild)

    Soon he disappeared, and then through the years
    My ma slowly died in shame
    And so as I was leavin', I swore that I'd get even
    With him who gave me my name

    So I began to deal on the Memphis Keel
    Who's captain sure liked my style
    Revenge was in my will, I had to find and kill
    The man with deuces wild

    Cut a card, played it hard
    Makin' myself a name
    (He's the man who plays poker with deuces wild)

    Many years had past, and I lived 'em fast
    My search set my soul on fire
    They knew me up and down in every levee town
    As one with a crazy desire

    And with my own two hands, I had to break the man
    Who gambled with such a smile
    I would put a bullet through the man with that tattoo
    Who sure loved deuces wild

    Up and down the river
    Looking all the while
    For a man who plays poker with deuces wild
    (He's the man who plays poker with deuces wild)

    One day I played a hand with killer Fitzy Dan
    Who came up from Mobile way
    When he saw he was beaten, he said that I was cheatin'
    His gun quickly pushed the cards away

    As I heard the bullets scream, an old Jim stepped between
    He looked up and smiled, then died
    And tattoed on his arm, I saw a good luck charm
    The words were deuces wild

    Deuces wild, deuces wild
    He came my way to play the game
    Cut a card, played it hard
    Makin' myself a name

    Up and down the river
    Lookin' all the while
    For a man who plays poker with deuces wild

    Bedankt Lieve Ouders
    Performer(s): Vader Abraham



    Waar m'n wiegje heeft gestaan
    't Is niet ver hier vandaan
    Heeft geluk me omringt al die jaren
    Tussen bloesem en bomen
    Kon ik zorgeloos dromen
    En geluk kon ik daar al gaan sparen
    't Was op een heel klein station
    Waar m'n leven begon
    'k Leerde daar van m'n ouders toen lopen
    Daar vertrok toen m'n trein
    'k Moet er dankbaar voor zijn
    Nu ben ik groot, maar eens was ik klein

    Bedankt liever ouders
    Bedankt voor 't leven
    Bedankt lieve ouders
    Voor wat u mij hebt gegeven
    Ik begrijp nu pas goed
    Wat u voor mij hebt gedaan
    Bedankt dat mijn wiegje
    In uw huis eens mocht staan

    U had om mij wel eens verdriet
    Maar dat weet een ander niet
    Toch bleef u van mij altijd houden
    Ik kreeg van God een lieve vrouw
    En een kind wara 'k veel van hou
    Waar ik samen m'n leven mee bouwde
    Ik denk weer terug aan 't station
    Waar m'n leven toen begon
    Waar de trein voor 't eerst toen ging rijden
    We kenden vreugde en pijn
    Ik zal er dankbaar voor zijn
    Nu ben ik groot, maar eens was ik klein

    Bedankt liever ouders
    Bedankt voor 't leven
    Bedankt lieve ouders
    Voor wat u mij hebt gegeven
    Ik begrijp nu pas goed
    Wat u voor mij hebt gedaan
    Bedankt dat mijn wiegje
    In uw huis eens mocht staan

    Bedankt liever ouders
    Bedankt voor 't leven
    Bedankt lieve ouders
    Voor wat u mij hebt gegeven
    Ik begrijp nu pas goed
    Wat u voor mij hebt gedaan
    Bedankt dat mijn wiegje
    In uw huis eens mocht staan

    Oh, I'm sorry, but it's time to move away
    Though inside my heart, I really want to stay
    Believe the love we have is so sincere
    You know, the gift you have will always be

    You're the apple of my eye
    You're the apple of my heart
    But now, the time has come to part

    Oh, I'm sorry, but it's time to make a stand
    Though we never meant to bite the lovin' hand
    And now, the time has come to walk alone
    We were the children, now we've overgrown

    You're the apple of my eye
    You're the apple of my heart
    But now, the time has come to part

    Oh, I'm sorry, but it's time to move away
    Though inside my heart, I really want to stay
    Believe the love we have is so sincere
    You know, the gift you have will always be

    You're the apple of my eye
    You're the apple of my heart
    But now, the time has come to part

    Now, the time has come to part
    Now, the time has come to part

    Deuce And A Quarter Composer(s): Kevin Gordon - Gwil Owen Performer(s): Scotty Moore & D.J. Fontana; Keith Richards; Kevin Gordon



    Buy a bottle get to feeling good
    World's lookin' like you think it should
    Happy hour, Honey everyone's your friend
    Closing time shut her down again
    Up in the morning and your facing town
    Walk the same streets up and down
    A fire burning in your worn out shoes
    Every day you got something to prove

    A curb feelers and fender skirts
    Scrub the chrome 'till your elbow hurts
    A pinstripes and cherry packs
    grass stains on your second hand slacks
    Keep on bettin' think you gonna win
    You can dress it up and try to pretend
    a car's a car and that's a fact
    A deuce and a quarter aint no cadillac

    Uncle Johnny has a country act
    His headache is a heart attack
    Honey bring me down a couple more pills
    Call the lawyer up and change my will

    Ham sandwich and a glass of tea
    Lunch is cheap but never free
    Shaking hands and scratching backs
    Grease stains on your second hand slacks
    Keep on bettin think you're gonna win
    You can dress it up and try to pretend
    A car's a car and thats a fact
    A deuce and a quarter ain't a cadillac
    Got a date gotta dress with care
    Wash the gray right outa my hair

    Clean the car and when I'm through
    Wax it up till it looks brand new

    A curb feelers and a fender skirt
    Scrub the chrome 'till your elbows hurt

    Pinstripes and cherry packs
    grass stains on your second hand slacks

    Keep on bettin' think your gonna win
    You can dress it up and try to pretend

    A car's a car, and that's a fact
    but a Deuce and a quarter aint no cadillac

    A car's a car, and that's a fact
    but a Deuce and a quarter aint no cadillac

    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

    Detroit Rock City Composer(s): Bob Ezrin - Paul Stanley First release by: Kiss - 1976 Covered by multiple other artists



    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

    La la la la...

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

    I call my baby
    And I tell her the news
    Hurry up and put on
    Your 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 the blues

    Oh, well, I open my wallet
    And I count my loot
    I comb my hair and
    I brush my suit

    I'm not worried
    Gonna lose my blues
    Swing my baby in
    My rocking shoes

    I'm gonna rock

    I call her again
    And I tell her the news

    We'll rock
    (Rock in rocking shoes)
    Oh, we're gonna dance
    Away the blues

    La la la la...

    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
    The blues

    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)
    Composer(s): Paul Westmoreland
    First release by: Spade Cooley and His Orch.
    Covered by multiple other artists



    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
