Aujourd'hui Peut-Être Composer(s): Marcel Sicard - Paul Durand Performer(s): Fernand Sardou
Devant ma maison y a un pin terrible Dont la grosse branche pourrait bien tomber Pour mon pauvre toit, quelle belle cible Cette branche-là, je vais la couper...
Aujourd'hui peut-être, ou alors demain Ce sacré soleil me donne la flemme Je la couperai... té: après-demain Et si je peux pas la couper moi-même Je demanderai à l'ami Tonin Qui la coupera aussi bien lui-même Ce n'est pas qu'on soit feignant par ici Mais il fait si chaud dans notre Midi
J'ai de beaux lapins, des lapins superbes Mais ils ont toujours envie de manger Il faut tout le temps leur couper de l'herbe Et je devrais bien leur en ramasser...
Aujourd'hui peut-être, ou alors demain Ces sacrés lapins me donnent la flemme Je la couperai... té: après-demain Et si je peux pas la couper moi même Hé bé je lâcherai tous mes beaux lapins Qui la couperont aussi bien eux-mêmes Ce n'est pas qu'on soit feignant par ici Mais la terre est basse dans notre Midi
Le soir de mes noces avec Thérèse Quand on s'est trouvés tout déshabillés En sentant frémir son beau corps de braise Je me suis pensé: "je vais l'embrasser"...
Aujourd'hui peut-être, ou alors demain Moi les émotions, boudiou, ça me rend tout blême Je l'embrasserai... té: après demain Et si je peux pas l'embrasser moi-même... Mais soudain ça m'a pris au petit matin On est déchaîné chez nous quand on aime Et deux mois après... j'avais trois petits Nous sommes les rois dans notre Midi
Don't Cha Stop Composer(s): Ric Ocasek Performer(s): The Cars
Right here I'd like to melt inside of you Right here your kiss is totally new Right here your hands are soft and creamy Right here your mouth is wet and dreamy And it's just what I like So dim down the light Don't cha stop don't cha stop Don't cha stop don't cha stop If it makes you feel good Your rhapsody is blowing my cool Your fantasies were written for fools Your long black hair it tickles my skin Feels so luscious come on do it again
Aujourd'hui C'est Toi Composer(s): Francis Lai - Pierre Barouh Performer(s): Francis Lai
Toi et moi Nous vivons dans la ville Nos coeurs depuis longtemps Longtemps Ont le rythme des rues Parmi tous ces regards Qui se croisent et defilent Les notres par hasard cessent d'etre inconnue
Aujourd'hui c'est toi Aujourd'hui c'est moi Aujourd'hui l'amour Nous a pris par le bras Et tant pis su ca va trop vite Puisque l'amour nous invite vivre eperdument Ce qui nous attends
August Was A Heavy Month Composer(s): Bob Geldof Performer(s): Bob Geldof
I'll take another photograph Before the old one fades It reminds me of those things that past And quickly passed away But it comes on in the early night
Creeping up on you Those scenes of devastation Crushing down on cue These days are growing colder now The light is growing dim August was a heavy month And now the nights are drawing in Poor Baby Blue's wrapped up again Inside her final pain I'd help her if I could I say She puts us all to shame Alright, alright I know I've got a lot Left to answer for But am I the only one to blame And anyway who's keeping score But the grass seems so much brighter now She's spilled her blood again August was a heavy month Wash it down September rain
Baby Blue picks up her life tonight And rushes for the Chelsea train All the stars shine down on her tonight And August was a heavy month
The photograph is cracked and torn From being picked up, put down Like some holy relic Whose worshippers are found Searching through their sacred books For the holy grail of "why" But the total sum of knowledge Knows no more than you or I Alright, alright says Baby Blue Who doesn't really understand August was a heavy month But winter came at last
Don't Call Him A Cowboy
Composer(s): Debbie Hupp - Johnny MacRae - Bob Morrison
Performer(s): Conway Twitty
So you came from New York city and you want to see the sights You've heard all about those cowboys and those crazy Texas nights I see you've got your eye on something leaning on the bar But the toughest ride he's ever had was in his foreign car
Chorus: So don't call him a cowboy until you've seen him ride Cause a Stetson hat and those fancy boots don't tell ya what's inside No, and if he ain't good in the saddle Lord you won't be satisfied So don't call him a cowboy until you've seen him ride He's the Hollywood idea of the wild and wooly west In his French designer blue jeans and his custom tailored vest You think he's the real thing but I think you oughta know He can't even make it through a one night rodeo
Aujourd'hui C'est Congé ((aka Tu Chang'ras D'avis (by Les Missiles) - 1963)) ((Adapted from: Bad To Me (by Billy J. Kramer & The Dakotas) - 1963)) Composer(s): John Lennon - Paul McCartney Performer(s): Pierre Lalonde - 1963
C'est jours de vacances on a tous 20 ans En plus de la chance regarde le beau temps
La main dans la main Allons, c'est le temps de vivre, toi priez le soleil Sa chaleur m'enivre Aujourd'hui c'est congé
Cheveux dans le vent, filon vite vers la plage Là dans le ciel Il y a pas le moindre nuage Aujourd'hui c'est congé
Chante avec moi le refrain du temps des vacances Tout près de toi j'ai le cur qui danse
Il fait si bon de s'amuser Aujourd'hui c'est congé Filons dans le vent, j'entends l'amour nous appelle Tout ça s'est un naufrage La vie est si belle Aujourd'hui c'est congé
Chante avec moi le refrain du temps des vacances Tout près de toi j'ai le cur qui danse

August Evening Lady Composer(s): B.W. Stevenson Performer(s): B.W. Stevenson
And in the middle of an August evening You can't see her fly The times when she was believin' Love is showin' in his eyes He sang her songs of givin' He sang her songs of life Till the day he dropped by just to say goodbye Please don't leave me alone Please believe me I'll die if you are gone And the clouds will have passed by her window Could not stay by her side The (new of love ???) she worshipped She had no time to cry She loved him in the mornings And in the evenings too Till the day he dropped by To say I don't need you It ain't me it's the times It ain't you in my mind I just got to leave you behind Please don't leave me alone Please believe me I'll die if you are gone
Don't Bury Me 'Til I'm Ready Performer(s): Johnny Paycheck
Don't bury me 'til I'm ready Don't try to say I'm gonna be missed Don't wave me goodbye, son, I'll spit in your eye 'Cause I ain't going out like this Don't wave me goodbye, son, I'll spit in your eye 'Cause I ain't going out like this
They tell me I'm too old to cut the mustard That I should go and rest a spell They say that I'll be dead any day now But they don't know this old boy too well I've spent all my life on the bottom But by the grace of God I'm going to go out on the top
But by the grace of God I'm going to go out on the top

Auf Wiederseh'n, My Dear Composer(s): Al Goodhart - Al Hoffman - Eric Nelson - Milton Ager Performer(s): Jerry Vale and multiple other artists
It happened in Vienna If you were there you'd see Two lovers in the moonlight beneath the linden tree Sweet violins are playing And to his love forever saying
Come let us go down lovers lane Once more to sing love's own refrain Though we must say auf wiedersehen Auf wiedersehen, my dear
Here in your arms I can't remain So let me kiss you once again Soon we must say auf wiedersehen Auf wiedersehen, my dear
Your love will cling to me through the lonely daytime Each night will bring to me the magic memory of May-time
I know my heart won't beat again Until the day we meet again Sweetheart, goodbye, auf wiedersehen Auf wiedersehen, my dear
Your love will cling to me through the lonely daytime Each night will bring to me the magic memory of May-time

Don't Bring Lulu Composer(s): Lew Brown - Billy Rose - Ray Henderson Performer(s): Ernest Hare & Billy Jones and multiple other artists
Your presence is requested, wrote little Johnny White But with this invitation, there is a stipulation When you attend this party, you'll be treated right, but There's a wild and wooly woman you boys can't invite, now...
You can bring Pearl, she's a darn nice girl, but don't bring Lulu You can bring Rose with the turned up nose, but don't bring Lulu Lulu always wants to do, what we boys don't want her to When she struts her stuff around, London bridge is falling down You can bring cake or Porterhouse steak, but don't bring Lulu Lulu gets blue and she goes cuckoo like the clock on the shelf She's the kind of smartie who breaks up every party Hullabalooloo, don't bring Lulu, I'll bring her myself
We all went to the party, real high-toned affair Then along came Lulu, wild as any Zulu She started into Charleston, and how the boys did stare, but When she did the hula-hula, then she got the air, now...

Fräulein mine, the silvry Rhine is gleaming in the moonlight The trumpets blast Has come at last Upon this silent June night Your tear dimmed eyes like star lit skies Look into mine with yearning They plead in vain Auf Wiedersehn Some day I'll be returning
Fräulein mine, though stars may shine And foaming steins be clinking By campfires bright A toast each night To you I will be drinking No dark eyed maid I'll serenade Our tale of love to hinder To each I'll vow I've got a Frau And half a dozen kinder
There's a smile on your lips Fräulein darling There are tears in your eyes of blue And the sound of the trumpet is calling Fare thee well, fare thee well to you Though we part, still my heart will be yearning Till we meet by the beautiful Rhine Fräulein mine, for Auld Lang Syne down by the Rhine we'll drink a stein Auf Wiedersehn, Fräulein!

Auf Dem Mond Da Blühen Keine Rosen Composer(s): K. Munro - Leo Leandros Performer(s): Vicky Leandros
Wenn ein Astronaut mir sagte "Komm, ich fahr mit dir zum Mond steig doch ein, so eine Reise, die ist toll!" dann sagte ich: Nein, ohne mich! Ich wüßte wirklich nicht, was ich da oben soll
Auf dem Mond da blühen keine Rosen auf dem Mond gibt´s keinen Mondenschein Darum fahr ich nicht hin denn das hat keinen Sinn da gibt's nur Wüste und Stein Nein, ich bleib lieber hier auf der Erde bei dir denn nur hier können wir glücklich sein La la la ....
Auf dem Mond, da blühen keine Rosen da gibt´s nirgendwo Musik und Wein Darum fahr ich nicht fort denn an so einem Ort kann keine Liebe gedeihn Nein, ich bleib lieber hier auf der Erde bei dir denn nur hier können wir glücklich sein La la la ....
Auf dem Mond, da hab ich nichts verloren Meine Welt ist diese Welt allein Hier blüh´n Rosen für mich und mein Herz schlägt für dich hier gibt´s Musik und Mondenschein Darum bleibe ich hier auf der Erde bei dir denn nur hier können wir glücklich sein La la la ....

Don't Break My Heart Again
Composer(s): David Coverdale
Performer(s): Whitesnake; The Company of Snakes
I'm gonna take it to the limit of my love Before I turn and walk away I've had enough of holding on The promises of yesterday Every day of my life, it seems Trouble's knocking at my door It's hard to try and satisfy When you don't know what you're fighting for
Time and again I sing your song But, I've been runnin' on empty far too long I've had enough holdin' on to the past Make no mistake, it could be your last
Don't break my heart again, like you did before Don't break my heart again, I couldn't take anymore
I never hide the feeling inside And though I'm standing my back to the wall I know that even in a summer love A little bit of rain must fall But, every road I take I know Where it's gonna lead me to Because I've travelled every highway And they all keep coming back to you
Time and again I sing your song But, I've been runnin' on empty far too long I've had enough holdin' on to the past Make no mistake, it could be your last
Don't break my heart again, like you did before Don't break my heart again, I couldn't take anymore Don't break my heart
Don't break my heart again, like you did before Don't break my heart again, I couldn't take anymore
The Auctioneer Composer(s): Buddy Black - Leroy Van Dyke Performer(s): Leroy Van Dyke and multiple other artists
There was a boy in Arkansas who wouldn't listen to his ma When she told him that he should go to school He'd sneak away in the afternoon, take a little walk and pretty soon You'd find him at the local auction barn Well he'd stand and listen carefully then pretty soon he began to see How the auctioneer could talk so rapidly He said, "Oh my it's do or die I've got to learn that auction cry Gotta make my mark and be an auctioneer"
25 dollar 30 now 30 dollar 30 dollar 30 dollar 30 dollar give me a hollar 30 dollar who will bid it at a 35 dollar bid? 35 dollar 35 35 make it 35 and a 35 make it 35 and a 35 Who will bid it at a 35 dollar bid?
As time went on he did his best and all could see he didn't jest He practied on and then some night and day His pappy'd find him behind the barn just a workin up an awful storm As he tried to imitate the auctioneer Said his pappy, "Son we just can't stand a havin' a mediocre man You gotta take that auction usin' our good name I'll send you off to auction school and then you'll be nobody's fool You can take your place among the best"
35 dollar 40 now 40 dollar 40 dollar 40 dollar 40 dollar give me a hollar 40 dollar Who will bid it at at a 40 dollar bid? 40 dollar 45 45 will you make it 45 give me 45 and a 45 Who will bid it at a 45 dollar bid?
So from that morning he went to school there grew a man who played it cool He came back home a full fledged auctioneer And people came from miles around just to hear him make that rhythmic sound That filled their hearts with such a happy cheer His fame reached out from shore to shore he had all he could do and more He had to buy a plane to get around Now he's the tops in all the land so let's all give that man a hand He's the best of all the auctioneers
45 dollar 50 now 50 dollar 50 dollar 50 dollar 50 dollar give me a hollar 50 dollar Who will bid it at a 50 dollar bill? 50 dollar 55 55 make it 55 and a 55 make it 55 and Sold that horse for a 50 dollar bill

Since she's been gone I want no one to talk to me It's not the same but I'm to blame It's plain to see
So go away and leave me alone Don't bother me
I can't believe that she would leave me on my own It's just not right where every night I'm all alone
I've got no time for you right now Don't bother me
I know I'll never be the same If I don't get her back again because I know she'll always be The only girl for me
But till she's here please don't come near just stay away I'll let you know when she's come home Till that the day
Don't come around leave me alone Don't bother me
I've got no time for you right now Don't bother me
I know I'll never be the same If I don't get her back again because I know she'll always be The only girl for me
But till she's here please don't come near just stay away I'll let you know when she's come home Till that the day
Don't come around leave me alone Don't bother me Don't bother me Don't bother me
