L'affiche Rouge Composer(s): Louis Aragon - Léo Ferré Performer(s): Léo Ferré and multiple other artists
Vous n'avez réclamé ni gloire ni les larmes Ni l'orgue ni la prière aux agonisants Onze ans déjà que cela passe vite onze ans Vous vous étiez servis simplement de vos armes La mort n'éblouit pas les yeux des Partisans
Vous aviez vos portraits sur les murs de nos villes Noirs de barbe et de nuit hirsutes menaçants L'affiche qui semblait une tache de sang Parce qu'à prononcer vos noms sont difficiles Y cherchait un effet de peur sur les passants
Nul ne semblait vous voir Français de préférence Les gens allaient sans yeux pour vous le jour durant Mais à l'heure du couvre-feu des doigts errants Avaient écrit sous vos photos Morts Pour La France Et les mornes matins en étaient différents
Tout avait la couleur uniforme du givre A la fin février pour vos derniers moments Et c'est alors que l'un de vous dit calmement Bonheur à tous Bonheur à ceux qui vont survivre Je meurs sans haine en moi pour le peuple allemand
Adieu la peine et le plaisir Adieu les roses Adieu la vie adieu la lumière et le vent Marie-toi sois heureuse et pense à moi souvent Toi qui vas demeurer dans la beauté des choses Quand tout sera fini plus tard en Erivan
Un grand soleil d'hiver éclaire la colline Que la nature est belle et que le cur me fend La justice viendra sur nos pas triomphants Ma Mélinée ô mon amour mon orpheline Et je te dis de vivre et d'avoir un enfant
Ils étaient vingt et trois quand les fusils fleurirent Vingt et trois qui donnaient le cur avant le temps Vingt et trois étrangers et nos frères pourtant Vingt et trois amoureux de vivre à en mourir Vingt et trois qui criaient la France en s'abattant

Comme j'ai toujours envie d'aimer J'ai toujours envie de toi Oh toi que j'aime
Comme tu es belle dans la nuit Quand je sens ton corps sur mon corps J'ai envie de te parler d'amour
Comme j'ai toujours envie de toi Je te cherche où que tu sois Oh toi que j'aime
Comme tu es belle quand tu es nue De sentir ton souffle court J'ai envie de te faire l'amour
Comme j'ai toujours envie d'aimer J'ai toujours envie de toi Oh toi que j'aime
Comme j'ai toujours envie de toi Je te cherche où que tu sois Oh toi que j'aime
Laetitia Composer(s): Jean-Pierre Lang - François de Roubaix Performer(s): Alain Delon
Laetitia je ne savais pas Que tu étais tout pour moi Un oiseau chantait tout près de moi Mais je ne l'entendais pas Et tu vivais innocente, éphémère Tu habillais nos printemps de chimère
Laetitia je ne savais pas Que la vie n'est rien sans toi L'oiseau fragile un jour s'est abattu La mort ne l'a pas rendu Et tu reposes dans le bleu de la mer Toi qui colorais de bleu nos chimères
Un oiseau chantait près de moi Jamais il ne reviendra Laetitia, non je ne savais pas J'étais amoureux de toi!
Bang Shang-A-Lang
Composer(s): Jeff Barry
Performer(s): The Archies
I recall just walking down the street
Tryin' to escape the city heat
I saw her from the corner of my eye, eye, eye
Yeah she looked so good I thought I'd die
My heart went bang shang a-lang
Bang shang a-lang
Bang shang a-lang, bang bang
My heart went bang shang a-lang
Bang shang a-lang
Bang shang a-lang, bang bang
Somethin' said I shouldn't waste no time
If I'm ever gonna make her mine
I walked right up and said how do you do, do, do
She said, "I'll bet I do as good as you"
My heart went bang shang a-lang
Bang shang a-lang
Bang shang a-lang, bang bang
My heart went bang shang a-lang
Bang shang a-lang
Bang shang a-lang, bang bang
I remember when I held her tight
(Bang shang a-lang)
Felt like holdin' dynamite now
(Bang shang a-lang)
What's that ringin' in my ear?
(Bang shang a-lang)
Tell me ain't those bells I hear?
(Bang shang a-lang)
Bang bang (shang a lang)
Bang bang (shang a lang)
Bang bang bang (shang a lang lang)
Bang bang bang (shang a lang lang)
Now she's gonna spend her life with me
And we'll be as happy as can be
Because I love her more than I can tell, tell, tell
Sunday afternoon we'll hear the bells
And they'll go
Bang shang a lang
Bang shang a lang
Bang shang a lang, bang bang
Oh they'll go
Bang shang a lang
Bang shang a lang
Bang shang a lang, bang bang
My heart went bang shang a-lang
Bang shang a-lang
Bang shang a-lang, bang bang
My heart went bang shang a-lang
Bang shang a-lang
Bang shang a-lang, bang bang
Bang The Drum All Day

Covered by multiple other artists
I don't want to work I wan' bang on the drum all day I don't want to play I just want to bang on the drum all day
Ever since I was a tiny boy I don't want no candy I don't need no toy I took a stick and an old coffee can I pound on that thing 'till I got Blisters on my hand because
When I get older they think I'm a fool The teacher told me I should stay after school She caught me pounding on the desk with my hands But my licks was so hot I made the teacher wanna dance And that's why
Every day when I get home from work I feel frustrated The boss is a jerk And I get my sticks and go out to the shed And I pound on the drum like it was the boss's head because

I was five and he was six
We rode on horses made of sticks
He wore black and I wore white
He would always win the fight
Bang bang, I hit the ground
Bang bang, that awful sound
Bang bang, my baby shot me down
Seasons came and changed the time
And I grew up, I called him mine
He would always laugh and say
"Remember when we used to play?"
Bang bang, I hit the ground
Bang bang, that awful sound
Bang bang, my baby shot me down
Now he's gone, I don't know why
And till this day, sometimes I cry
He didn't even say goodbye
He didn't take the time to lie
Bang bang, I hit the ground
Bang bang, that awful sound
Bang bang, my baby shot me down
This Guitar Is For Sale Composer(s): Shel Silverstein - Fred Koller First release by: Bobby Bare - 1978
This guitar is for sale, I'll let her go cheap She's pretty to look at but she don't earn her keep She can roar like the west wind, she can weep, she can wail But the tunes that she plays just ain't sellin' today This guitar is for sale.
She lay close beside me on cold winter nights She's got me in trouble and she won me some fights We both come out all right She knows all the sad songs that Hank ever wrote Just touch her once gently and she'll take you on home She'll tell you some stories 'bout junk yards and jails And a fool with a song and a dream that went wrong This guitar is for sale.
She's rode cross this country on freight trains and trucks On 'round pawnshop windows when we're down on our luck We been down on our luck So please treat her kind, keep her out of the rain It's funny you're askin', I never gave her a name But if you say she looks weary, you been readin' our mail So if you got the dough buddy take her and go This guitar is for sale.
She's won me some ladies with her sweet lovin' songs And she's stuck right here with me when the ladies were gone And the ladies are gone But hard times and trouble been doggin' our tail So if you got the dough buddy take her and go This guitar is for sale...

Avevamo cinque anni correvamo sui cavalli io e lei contro agli indiani eravamo due cow boy

Nous avions dix ans à peine Tous nos jeux étaient les mêmes Aux gendarmes et aux voleurs Tu me visais droit au cur Bang bang, tu me tuais Bang bang, et je tombais Bang bang, et ce bruit-là Bang bang, je ne l'oublierai pas
Nous avons grandi ensemble On s'aimait bien il me semble Mais tu n'avais de passion Que pour tes jeux de garçon Bang bang, tu t'amusais Bang bang, je te suivais Bang bang, et ce bruit-là Bang bang, je ne l'oublierai pas
Un jour tu as eu vingt ans Il y avait déjà longtemps Que l'amour avait remplacé Notre amitié du passé Et quand il en vint une autre On ne sait à qui la faute Tu ne m'avais jamais menti Avec elle tu es parti Bang bang, tu m'as quittée Bang bang, je suis restée Bang bang, et ce bruit-là Bang bang, je ne l'oublierai pas
Quand j'aperçois des enfants Se poursuivre en s'amusant Et faire semblant de se tuer Je me sens le cur serré Bang bang, je me souviens Bang bang, tout me revient Bang bang, et ce bruit-là Bang bang, je ne l'oublierai pas
Troubadour Song Composer(s): Louis Pippa Performer(s): Burl Ives
Do you happen to know of a maiden in need Of a sweetheart? Here's one who is anxious to plead It's a shame that a handsome young fellow like me Should be left while the nightingale sings in the tree It's a shame that a handsome young fellow like me Should be left while the nightingale sings in the tree
In the wood and the meadow, beneath the bright moon Every lad with his lass makes the most of the June The world's gone a-wooing, excepting of me While the nightingale sings to his mate in the tree The world's gone a-wooing, excepting of me While the nightingale sings to his mate in the tree
The time, it is short, there is none I can spare For the nightingale's song will soon die in the air Don't you think, dearest Phyllis, you'd better agree To make love while the nightingale sings in the tree? Don't you think, dearest Phyllis, you'd better agree To make love while the nightingale sings in the tree?
Der Junge Mit Der Mundharmonika Performer(s): Christian Anders
Da war ein Traum, der so alt ist, wie die Welt Und der ihn traeumt, hoert ihm zu, der ihn erzaehlt
Der Junge mit der Mundharmonika singt von dem, was einst geschah in silbernen Traeumen von der Barke mit der glaesernen Fracht die in sternenklarer Nacht Deiner Traurigkeit entflieht
Du hoerst sein Lied und ein Engel steht im Raum Dann weißt du nicht, ist es Wahrheit oder Traum
Der Junge mit der Mundharmonika singt von dem, was einst geschah in silbernen Traeumen von der Barke mit der glaesernen Fracht die in sternenklarer Nacht Deiner Traurigkeit entflieht
Der Junge mit der Mundharmonika singt von dem, was einst geschah in silbernen Traeumen von der Barke mit der glaesernen Fracht die in sternenklarer Nacht Deiner Traurigkeit entflieht

While you sit and seek a crescent moon is laying At your feet With hope that's made of sand It don't think you can But you have held it all in your hands
I've been trying hard to keep from needing you But from the start My heart just rolled and flowed I've seen where it goes Still somehow my love for you grows, Lady-0
So on my heels I'll grow wings Gonna ride silver strings But I'll see you in my holiest dreams, Lady-0
(repeat chorus)
I've been trying hard to keep from needing you But from the start My heart just rolled and flowed I've seen where it goes
Still somehow my love for you grows, Lady-O So on my heels I'll grow wings Gonna ride silver strings But I'll see you in my holiest dreams, Lady-O

Don't disturb the ladybug Sleepin' by the spider's web And if you see a butterfly Don't try to catch it in your net It's taken such a long long time To make this very special place Open up your soul and mind To all it has to say
Be still Take it in awhile Feel the sunshine Warm upon your face You'll feel When it makes you smile Like you're welcome To the human race
Everybody sees a part Of what this life can really be No one sees like you can see When you let your mind be free The wind is blowing through the trees A song that everyone can learn God is playing hide and seek Everywhere you turn
Be still Take it in awhile Feel the sunshine Warm upon your face You'll feel When it makes you smile Like you're welcome To the human race

Donna Maria, Donna Maria Ik weet dat je wacht nog iedere nacht in Santa Lucia Donna Maria, Donna Maria Maar wacht toch niet meer want ik kom niet meer naar Santa Lucia
Huil toch niet, denk eens na je zult begrijpen In m'n hart was voor jou nog slechts venijn Was ik gebleven, ik zou je ongelukkig maken Nee huil toch niet, zo zal het heus veel beter gaan
