La Historia Esta Composer(s): Léon Gieco Performer(s): Léon Gieco
Alguna vez sentist--e en un espacio de tu imaginacion que el grito de los perdedores es sordo y mudo aunque griten juntos
Alguna vez sentiste cuando un pueblo chorrea de su sangre nueva Como se muere lento igual que el corazon de un cuenta cuentos
Dejate atravesar por la realidad y que ella grite en tu cabeza porque es muy malo dejar pasar por un costado a la historia esta porque es muy malo dejar pasar por un costado a la historia esta
Alguna vez sentiste mucha gente tener quebradas sus fuerzas O alzar del suelo un poema que guardaba en un rincon de su inocencia
Alguna vez sentiste muy de cerca avanzar a la tragedia Todo lo pisa y lo rompe y en su lomo lleva a una niña buena
Dry Your Eyes Composer(s): Neil Diamond - Robbie Robertson
Performer(s): Neil Diamond
Dry your eyes and take your song out, it's a newborn afternoon And if you can't recall the singer you can still recall the tune Dry your eyes and play it slowly like you're marching off to war sing it like you know he'd want it, like we sang it once before And from the center of the circle to the midst of the waiting crowd if it ever be forgotten sing it long and sing it loud and come dry your eyes
And he taught us more about giving than we ever cared to know
but we came to find the secret and we never let it go And it was more than being holy and it was less than being free and if you can't recall the reason can you hear the people sing Right through the lightning and the thunder to the dark side of the moon to that distant falling angel that descended much too soon and come dry your eyes Come dry your eyes
Dry Your Eyes Composer(s): Maurice Coates - Brenda Payton
Performer(s): Brenda & The Tabulations
and multiple other artists
Dry your eyes There's no need to cry I am so sorry but bye-bye, so-long Mother's gotta go now
I am so sorry to see you cry Wipe those tears from your eyes, so-long Mother's gotta go now
It's been so long Since you've been gone away And baby when you come back You'll be home to stay But in the meantime I'm so lonely and so blue Why don't you tell me now, tell me now What am I gonna do
I am so sorry to see you cry Wiping those tears from your eyes, so-long Mother's gotta go now
Dry your eyes Bye bye baby Dry your eyes Don't cry baby
La Hiedra Composer(s): Vincenzo D'Acquisito - Ben Molar - Saverio Seracini Performer(s): Javier Solís
Pasaron desde aquél ayer ya tantos años dejaron en su gris correr mil desengaños Más cuando quiero recordar nuestro pasado te siento cuál la hiedra, ligada a mi Y así hasta la eternidad te sentiré
Yo sé que estoy ligado a ti más fuerte que la hiedra porque tus ojos de mis sueños no pueden separarse jamás Donde quiera que estés mi voz escucharás llamándote con ansiedad por la pena ya sin final de sentirte en mi soledad
Jamás la hiedra y la pared podrían apretarse más igual, tus ojos de mis ojos no pueden separarse jamás Donde quiera que estés mi voz escucharás llamándote con mi canción más fuerte que el dolor se aferra nuestro amor como la hiedra, como la hiedra
Drunken Spree Composer(s): Skip James
Performer(s): Skip James; Blue Goblins
I pawned my watch, pawned my chain pawned my diamond ring If that don't settle my drunken spree I'll never get drunk again
It was late last night when Miss Willie come home She'd made one rap on my door I said, "Is that you, Miss Willie? I'd like to know Don't you rap no more"
I love Miss Willie, yes I do I love her till the see go dry And if I thought she didn't love me I'd take morphine and die
She's up in her little stockin' feet, tippin' 'cross the floor Just like she had done before Yes, and I pawned my clothes, pawned my shoe I'll never get drunk no more
I begged Miss Willie, down on my knee to forgive me, if she please "Well, you done caused me to weep and you caused me to moan Done caused me to lose my happy home"
I hollered, "Oh me, oh my I'll never let another drink go by" If I thought she didn't love me I'd take morphine and die
I pawned my watch, pawned my chain pawned my diamond ring And if that don't settle all my drunken spree Lord, I'll never get drunk again
Way, hay up she rises Way, hay, up she rises Way, hay, up she rises Earlye in the morning!
What will we do with the drunken sailor? What will we do with the drunken sailor? What will we do with the drunken sailor? Earlye in the morning?
Put him in the scuppers with the hose pipe on him Hoist him aboard with a running bowline Put him in the brig until he's sober Make him turn to at shining bright work Put him in a boat and row him over Hoist him up to the topsail yardarm Make him clean out all the spit-kids That's what you do with a drunken sailor Amen
La Guitarra Del Joven Soldado Performer(s): Silvio Rodríguez
La guitarra del joven soldado es pecosa y discreta Es tan tímida que sólo canta pasadas las diez Cuando tocan silencio ella espera una hora y se escurre de puntas, los pies y en el monte, debajo de un árbol suelta al viento su amor y su fe
La guitarra del joven soldado revela secretos se desata por una mirada en arpegios de amor Cada instante le pide tonadas y sones canciones que nunca escuchó y buscándolas siempre amanece procurando un acorde mejor La guitarra del joven soldado hoy tampoco durmió
La guitarra del joven soldado es la celosa amante que lo ha de seguir en la dicha y también en el llanto pero siempre ayudando a vivir La guitarra del joven soldado es su mejor fusil
Drunken Hearted Boy Composer(s): Elvin Bishop
Performer(s): The Allman Brothers Band; Jim Suhler
Well, yes, people I am a poor, drunken hearted boy Well, yeah, people I am a poor, drunken hearted boy I have a whole ocean of trouble And just a little, half pint of joy

Alright Baby, bring me some Old Grandad's 100 proof Don't play like that man, you'll make me thirsty Oh, Lord
Baby, if I keep on drinkin, I know I can't last too long Woman, if I keep on drinkin, people ya know I can't last too long That's alright, cause when I'm dead and buried Please think about me when you hear this song
Madero de fibras nobles que trajiste de la selva la voz de todos los pájaros y el zumbo de cien abejas El sol te puso alegrías la noche te dió tristezas para adornar tu garganta del cielo bajó una estrella Todas las cosas del monte de los llanos y las sierras andan caminos sonoros por la huella de tus cuerdas
Los estilos de la pampa las vidalas de la selva los cantares del arriero cuando baja por las cuestas la alegría de los campos la soledad de las piedras la noche de los paisanos el alba que nunca llega todo cabe en tu madero guitarra sabia de ausencia La primavera de un sueño o el invierno de una pena
El camino que nos trae y el camino que nos lleva nos llena el alma de cosas que sólo en tí se emparejan Guitarra de noble fibr te quiero porque en tus cuerdas mis paisanos van juntando la alegría con la pena Ellos no gritan su canto las canciones las conversan y un rumor de noche azul va despertando en tus cuerdas
Linda cruz para mi tumba con mi guitarra y mi quena Lindo responso el silbido del paisano que se aleja Guitarra de mi cariño no hay nada que no comprendas Eres el alma sonora que nos afirma en la tierra Todo cabe en tu madero guitarra sabia de ausencias la primavera de un sueño o el invierno de una pena
Drowning Witch Composer(s): Frank Zappa
Performer(s): Frank Zappa
There's a ship arriving too late To save a drowning witch She was swimmin' along Tryin' to keep a date With a Merchant Marine Who told her he was really rich But it doesn't matter no more... She's on the ocean floor 'N the water's all green down there 'N it's not very clean down there 'N water snakes 'N rusty wrecks Is all that she can see As the light goes dim And she's tryin' to swim Will she make it? (Boy, we sure hope so...)
Not even a witch oughta be caught On the bottom of America's spew-infested Waterways, hey-hey... She could get radiation all over her She could mutate insanely... She could mutate insanely... (that's right) You know she could go on the freeway and grow up to be 15 feet tall and scary-lookin' And then... Cars could crash all over the place As a result of people with Hawaiian shirts on... Lookin' up to see her face
Sardines in her eyebrows... Lobsters up 'n down her forehead All of them horribly large from radiation... And smelling very bad And dangerous!
Maybe a submarine could save her And bring her home to the Navy... For some kind of ritual sacrifice...
La Guitare Fait Mal Composer(s): Claude Lemesle Performer(s): Johnny Hallyday
Toute la nuit, il a joué sur sa guitare Au fond d'un vieux café Un peu de soleil, sur le goudron mouillé Les gens s'en vont, le jour va se lever
C'est la dernière chanson, d'un amour blessé Y a la guerre quelque part, loin du café Comme un amour bizarre qui veut jamais rentrer Tout ça est normal et la guitare fait... mal
La femme qui vient le soir, s'habille en noir Elle sourit quand il joue le blues Elle demande chaque soir, la même chanson La même chanson qui est toute son histoire
Et c'est son parfum qui traîne dans le lointain On empile des chaises, pour balayer C'est toute une histoire qu'il faudrait oublier Tout ça est normal et la guitare fait... mal
Il y a pas si longtemps, pas très longtemps Il jouait pour pouvoir l'aimer Malgré les journées où il perdait sa vie Pour la voir arriver quand venait la nuit
Il attend la nuit et cette femme aussi Comme on attend son dernier train Qui va l'emporter vers son vrai destin Tout ça est normal et la guitare fait mal

I've been down one time And I've been down two times But right now I'm drowning Drowning in the sea of love I've been out here for so very long I've lost all my direction Baby, when you came my way I thought I had found my protection But a strong wind came into my life It surely took me by surprise I can't seem to control these tears That are falling from my eyes I've been down one time And I've been down two times But right now I'm drowning Drowning in the sea of love Sea of love Baby, I depended on you For our love navigation Now you've gone and deserted me Can't you see that I'm in desperation I'm in the middle of a bad love storm Ooh yeah I wasn't ready for I look around and all I can see Is water pouring over me I've been down one time And I've been down two times But right now I'm drowning Drowning in the sea of love
I've been out here for so very long I've lost all my direction Baby, when you came my way I thought I had found my protection But a strong wind came into my life It surely took me by surprise I can't seem to control these tears That are falling from my eyes I've been down one time And I've been down two times But right now I'm drowning Drowning in the sea of love Drowning in the sea of love
Poncho abierto sobre el alba La Guerrillera! Viene abriendo los caminos... La Guerrillera! Puñal rojo sobre el pecho toda esperanza! Vení, te estoy esperando paloma blanca! Canción de cuna sus labios dejaron lejos Los fusiles necesitan su claro pecho! Un alarido de lanzas grita a degúello! La Libertad se hace novia de mi pañuelo! La Guerrillera tiene sangre en el alma! Su bandera es madera de las guitarras! La Guerrillera tiene vidita, sangre en el alma!
Drownin' My Sorrows Composer(s): Hank Hunter - Stan Vincent

(I'll keep drownin' my sorrows over you)
I was happy when you were my true love Now I find that I'm losin' my mind 'Cause they told me that you found a new love Now I know that the fates are unkind
That's why I'm drownin' my sorrows Facing lonely tomorrows Drownin' my sorrows in an ocean of tears My broken heart keeps recallin' As my teardrops keep fallin' That I'm drownin' my sorrows over you
Now I know that my bridges are burnin' 'Cause there'll never be no one else for me So I pray, darlin' soon you'll be returnin' And you'll break these chains of love and set me free
Till then I'm drownin' my sorrows Facing lonely tomorrows Drownin' my sorrows in an ocean of tears My broken heart keeps recallin' As my teardrops keep fallin' That I'm drownin' my sorrows over you

La Guerre De 14-18 Composer(s): Georges Brassens Performer(s): Georges Brassens
Depuis que l'homme écrit l'Histoire Depuis qu'il bataille à cur joie Entre mille et une guerr' notoires Si j'étais t'nu de faire un choix À l'encontre du vieil Homère Je déclarerais tout de suite "Moi, mon colon, cell' que j'préfère C'est la guerr' de quatorz'-dix-huit!"
Est-ce à dire que je méprise Les nobles guerres de jadis Que je m'soucie comm' d'un'cerise De celle de soixante-dix? Au contrair', je la révère Et lui donne un satisfecit Mais, mon colon, celle que j'préfère C'est la guerr' de quatorz'-dix-huit
Je sais que les guerriers de Sparte Plantaient pas leurs epées dans l'eau Que les grognards de Bonaparte Tiraient pas leur poudre aux moineaux Leurs faits d'armes sont légendaires Au garde-à-vous, je les félicite Mais, mon colon, celle que j'préfère C'est la guerr' de quatorz'-dix-huit
Bien sûr, celle de l'an quarante Ne m'as pas tout à fait déçu Elle fut longue et massacrante Et je ne crache pas dessus Mais à mon sens, elle ne vaut guère Guèr' plus qu'un premier accessit Moi, mon colon, celle que j' préfère C'est la guerr' de quatorz'-dix-huit
Mon but n'est pas de chercher noise Au guérillas, non, fichtre, non Guerres saintes, guerres sournoises Qui n'osent pas dire leur nom Chacune a quelque chos' pour plaire Chacune a son petit mérite Mais, mon colon, celle que j'préfère C'est la guerr' de quatorz'-dix-huit
Du fond de son sac à malices Mars va sans doute, à l'occasion En sortir une, un vrai délice Qui me fera grosse impression En attendant je persévère À dir' que ma guerr' favorite Cell', mon colon, que j'voudrais faire C'est la guerr' de quatorz'-dix-huit
