Hey Baby, Hey Baby Don't treat me oh so bad Oh baby, Oh baby Don't you know that I'm the best thing You ever had not gonna stand for that
Well went out last night, like I did every evening Play guitar down at the Roll & Tumble bar Went out at my front door who should I be receiving But scooby-dooby dude in a Cadillac car
First I thought once, then I thought twice Then I said no that girl is far too nice I was just about to ask that dude just what he was selling But the look in your eyes, in you eyes Believe me I didn't need no telling baby
He was a salesman for his own company He was trying to talk my baby into leaving me He was a product with a written guarantee Given you samples just for free
Oh Baby, Oh Baby Did you have to treat me oh so bad Oh baby, Oh baby Don't you know that I'm the best thing You ever had, not gonna stand for that

Matin, fais lever le soleil Matin, à l'instant du réveil Viens tendrement poser Tes perles de rosée Sur la nature en fleurs Chère à mon cur Le ciel a choisi mon pays Pour faire un nouveau paradis Où loin des tourments Danse un éternel printemps Pour les amants
Chante chante mon cur La chanson du matin Dans la joie de la vie qui reviens
Matin, fais lever le soleil Matin, à l'instant du réveil Mets dans le cur battant De celui que j'attends Un doux rayon d'amour Beau comme le jour Afin que son premier soupir Réponde à mon premier désir Oui, l'heure est venue Où chaque baiser perdu Ne revient plus... Oui, l'heure est venue Où chaque baiser perdu Ne revient plus
Chante chante mon cur La chanson du matin Dans la joie de la vie qui reviens
Doonaree Composer(s): Eilish Boland Performer(s): Vera Lynn and various other artists
If you ever go to Ireland I'm sure you will agree To take the road from Dublin town Way down to Doonaree 'Tis there you'll find a wishing well Beyond a chestnut tree In a shady nook, by a winding brook Will you make this wish for me
Oh to be in Doonaree With a sweetheart I once knew To stroll in the shade of the leafy glade Where the rhododendrons grew To sit with my love on the bridge Above the rippling waterfall But to go back home, never more to roam Is my dearest wish of all
And if you take the hilly path To the woods where bluebells grow Where we as barefoot children played So many years ago You'll find a slumbering castle there Enshrined in memory In a shady nook, by a winding brook Will you make this wish for me
Oh to be in Doonaree With a sweetheart I once knew To stroll in the shade of the leafy glade Where the rhododendrons grew To sit with my love on the bridge Above the rippling waterfall But to go back home, never more to roam Is my dearest wish of all
To go back home, never more to roam Is my dearest wish of all
Back home, never more to roam Is my dearest wish of all

Noch nie war das Glück mir so nah noch nie war ein Herz für mich da

Questa di Marinella è la storia vera che scivolò nel fiume a primavera ma il vento che la vide così bella dal fiume la portò sopra una stella Sola senza il ricordo di un dolore vivevi senza il sogno di un amore ma un re senza corona e senza scorta bussò tre volte un giorno alla tua porta Bianco come la luna il suo cappello come l'amore rosso il suo mantello tu lo seguisti senza una ragione come un ragazzo segue un aquilone E c'era il sole e avevi gli occhi belli lui ti baciò le labbra ed i capelli c'era la luna e avevi gli occhi stanchi lui pose le sue mani suoi tuoi fianchi Furono baci e furono sorrisi poi furono soltanto i fiordalisi che videro con gli occhi delle stelle fremere al vento e ai baci la tua pelle Dicono poi che mentre ritornavi nel fiume chissà come scivolavi e lui che non ti volle creder morta bussò cent'anni ancora alla tua porta Questa è la tua canzone Marinella che sei volata in cielo su una stella e come tutte le più belle cose vivesti solo un giorno, come le rose E come tutte le più belle cose vivesti solo un giorno, come le rose

La Canzone Dell'amore Perduto Composer(s): Fabrizio De André First release by: Fabrizio De André - 1966 Covered by multiple other artists
Ricordi sbocciavano le viole con le nostre parole "non ci lasceremo mai mai e poi mai" Vorrei dirti, ora, le stesse cose ma come fan presto, amore ad appassire le rose così per noi L'amore che strappa i capelli é perduto ormai Non resta che qualche svogliata carezza e un po' di tenerezza E quando ti troverai in mano quei fiori appassiti al sole di un aprile ormai lontano li rimpiangerai Ma sarà la prima che incontri per strada che tu coprirai d'oro per un bacio mai dato per un amore nuovo E sarà la prima che incontri per strada che tu coprirai d'oro per un bacio mai dato per un amore nuovo
Don't You Worry, Dearie Composer(s): Al. W. Morse - Percy Wenrich
A winsome little maid in an everglade With her soldier boy in blue Maiden softly sighs lovelight in her eyes For she loves him fond and true Boy has come to tell girl he loves so well Duty calls him far away Maiden is in tears for his life she fears Then she hears him softly say
The war is over now boy has kept his vow Nothing can their love destroy They are not alone in their little home There's a bouncing baby boy Happy is their lot, trouble they forgot As they stand behind his bed Oft when stars shine bright they recall the night When to her he softly said
Don't you worry Dearie Dearie don't you sigh See the moon is smiling In the deep blue sky Soon I'll be returning Then I'll claim my own Wedding bells will gaily ring And the birds will sweetly sing Little girlie when I come back home
La Canzone Del Sole Composer(s): Lucio Battisti - Mogol First release by: Lucio Battisti - 1971 Covered by multiple other artists
Le bionde trecce gli occhi azzurri e poi le tue calzette rosse e l'innocenza sulle gote tue due arance ancor più rosse e la cantina buia dove noi respiravamo piano e le tue corse, l'eco dei tuoi no,oh no mi stai facendo paura Dove sei stata cosa hai fatto mai? Una donna, donna dimmi cosa vuol dir sono una donna ormai Ma quante braccia ti hanno stretto, tu lo sai per diventar quel che sei che importa tanto tu non me lo dirai purtroppo Ma ti ricordi l'acqua verde e noi le rocce, bianco e il fondo di che colore sono gli occhi tuoi se me lo chiedi non rispondo O mare nero, o mare nero, o mare ne... tu eri chiaro e trasparente come me O mare nero, o mare nero, o mare ne... tu eri chiaro e trasparente come me Le biciclette abbandonate sopra il prato e poi noi due distesi all'ombra un fiore in bocca può servire, sai più allegro tutto sembra e d'improvviso quel silenzio fra noi e quel tuo sguardo strano ti cade il fiore dalla bocca e poi oh no, ferma, ti prego la mano Dove sei stata cos'hai fatto mai? Una donna, donna donna, dimmi cosa vuol dir sono una donna ormai Io non conosco quel sorriso sicuro che hai non so chi sei, non so più chi sei mi fai paura oramai purtroppo Ma ti ricordi le onde grandi e noi gli spruzzi e le tue risa cos'è rimasto in fondo agli occhi tuoi la fiamma è spenta o è accesa? O mare nero, o mare nero, o mare ne... Il sole quando sorge,sorge piano e poi la luce si diffonde tutto intorno a noi le ombre dei fantasmi della notte sono alberi e cespugli ancora in fiore sono gli occhi di una donna ancora pieni d'amore

You were working as a waitress in a cocktail bar When I met you I picked you out, I shook you up and turned you around Turned you into someone new Now five years later on, you've got the world at your feet Success has been so easy for you But don't forget it's me who put you where you are now And I can put you back down too
Don't, don't you want me You know I can't believe it when I hear that you won't see me Don't, don't you want me You know I don't believe you when you say that you don't need me It's much too late to find You think you've changed your mind You'd better change it back Or we will both be sorry
Don't you want me baby Don't you want me Don't you want me baby Don't you want me
I was working as as waitress in a cocktail bar That much is true But I always knew I'd find a much better place Either with or without you The five years we have had have been such good times I still love you But now I think it's time I live my life on my own I guess it's something I must do
