Belle, Belle, My Liberty Belle Composer(s): Bob Merrill Performer(s): Guy Mitchell; Don Cherry
(Oh, my liberty Belle, my pretty little belle) (You kissed me once and you knew darned well) (Oh, you knew darned well, my liberty belle) (I'd love nobody but you)
There's pretty girls in Singapore and the Philippines All along Killarney shore, oh, the fair colleens There's sweet Fifi from gay Paree and Wilhelmina, too But Belle, Belle, my liberty belle, I'm still in love with you
When stars are like a string of pearls 'round a blue lagoon How the Bali Bali girls dance beneath the moon Now while they dance I'll take a chance and steal a glance or two But Belle, Belle, my liberty belle, I'm still in love with you
I'll march, march, march the whole world over (over) I'll sail, sail, sail the ocean blue (sail the ocean blue) They've made my blinkin' heart a rover (a rover) But it's never hardly ever away from you
Of all the girls in Singapore and the Philippines You're girl that I adore, kiss in all my dreams I'll hold you soon beneath the moon, till then sweetheart be true 'cause Belle, Belle, my liberty belle, I'm still in love with you
(Belle, Belle, Belle)

Où irai-je belle? Où irai-je dis? Quand tu m'auras chassé de ton lit Quand tu ne m'ouvriras plus les bras Que je n'aurais plus place en tes draps Que ferai-je belle? Que ferai-je dis? Quand tu m'auras rayé de ta vie Quand je ne saurai plus aller Et contre quel sein me consoler
Au passé tu restes indifférente Tu vis au présent Alors que je compte sur les rentes De mes sentiments Demain te panique et te dérange T'as peur des toujours Tandis qu'à chaque instant moi j'engrange Des rêves d'amour
Où irai-je? Que ferai-je? Belle, belle, dis De folles idées m'assiègent Me troublent l'esprit Que serai-je Que dirai-je Belle, belle dis
J'en appelle à ton humble avis
Que serai-je, belle? Que serai-je, dis? Quand tous mes espoirs seront trahis Une épave de la société Ou quelqu'un prêt à tout affronter? Que dirai-je, belle? Belle, belle, dis? Quand tout entre nous sera fini Des mots qui font mal des mots odieux Ou bien tristement des mots d'adieu
Tandis que je nage en plein délire Toi tu viens et vas Prenant les choses avec le sourire Qui vivra verra Tu dis simplement je déborde D'imagination Et que parfois je te pousse au bord de L'exaspération
Où irai-je? Que ferai-je? Belle, belle, dis De folles idées m'assiègent Me troublent l'esprit Que serai-je Que dirai-je Belle, belle dis
Belle Starr Composer(s): Woody Guthrie Performer(s): Pete Seeger; James Talley
Belle Starr, Belle Starr, tell me where you have gone Since old Oklahoma's sandhills you did roam? Is it Heaven's wide streets that you're tying your reins Or singlefooting somewhere below? Eight lovers they say combed your waving black hair Eight men knew the feel of your dark velvet waist Eight men heard the sounds of your tan leather skirt Eight men heard the bark of the guns that you wore
Cole Younger was your first and the father of your girl And the name that you picked for your daughter was Pearl Cole robbed a bank and he drawed the life line But I heard he was pardoned after Twenty Years time
Your Cherokee lover, Blue Duck was his name He loved you in the sand hills before your great fame I heard he stopped a bullet in Eighteen Eighty Five And your Blue Duck's no longer alive
You took Jim Reed to your warm wedding bed And from out of your love was born the boy, Ed A pal killed Jim Reed by the dark of the moon And your son Ed was blowed down in a drunken saloon
Then there was Bob Younger you loved him well He rode with the James boys out down the long trail They caught him in Minnesota along with the gang He died down in jail in the cell or the chain
You loved Mister William Clarke Quantrill And his Civil War guerrillas in the Missouri hills He hit Lawrence Kansas and fought them still And when he rode out Two Hundred lay killed
They say could have, they whisper you might Have loved Frank James on a couple of nights He fought the Midland Railroad almost to death Then in Nineteen Fifteen Frank drawed his last breath
They say it could be, they say maybe so That you loved Jesse James that desperado Jesse got married, had a wife and a son Was shot down at home by the Ford brothers guns
Belle Starr, Belle Starr, your time's getting late But how is Jim Younger, did you hear his fate? He was jailed and then pardoned for all he had done And he blowed his own brains out in Nineteen and One
Eight men they say combed that black waving hair Eight men knew the feel of your dark velvet waist Eight men heard the sounds of your tan leather skirt Eight men heard the bark of the guns that you wore
Belle Starr, Belle Starr, tell me where have you gone Since old Oklahoma's sand hills you did roam? Is it Heaven's wide streets that you're tying your reins Or singlefooting somewhere below?
Belle Of The Ball Composer(s): Waylon Jennings Performer(s): Waylon Jennings
A vagabond dreamer, a rhymer and singer of songs Singing to no one and nowhere to really belong I met a beautiful lady, a pure Southern belle of the ball Like Scarlet O'Hara loved no one and wanted them all
Chorus: I'll never forget you and love you inspite of your faults The good and the bad I want to remember it all I did a new dance and you did your Tennessee Waltz The party's all over I came uninvited I'm leaving and taking the belle of the ball
There will always be someone I guess that's the way it should be I guess i should know that someone used to be me They'll gather around her soon they'll all look the same At the feet of the lady are lover's without any names

Law Man Composer(s): Grace Slick Performer(s): Jefferson Airplane; Royal Trux
Law man--I'm afraid you just walked in here at the wrong time my old man's gun has never been fired but there's a first time and this could be this could be the first time
Law man you know you look to be a lot younger than me and I'd hate to shoot a baby you've got a long way to go before you're old and slow and it could be it could be a good time if you change your mind well I'm tired and sweet from making love and it's just too late you'll have to wait bring your business around here in the morning
well I've heard your line and you've heard mine and I'm just too tired to take a side bring your business around here in the morning Don't you want to be easy look there let some of the things you see go on by or you can burn them into your brain go on home Don't you see the children, they're just like you they want everything to be fine but they let it slide and the laughing lets you know that smiling breaks the rules
Law breaker you know it could be me and if you had your way we'd all be down under the face of a clock that's just too old to be wound and you can see now the old hands won't move around one way or the other fool card brother this could be this could be, the first time

Bella Notte Composer(s): Sonny Burke; Peggy Lee Performer(s): George Givot and various other artists
Oh this is the night, it's a beautiful night And we call it bella notte Look at the skies, they have stars in their eyes On this lovely bella notte Side by side with your loved one You'll find enchantment here The night will weave its magic spell When the one you love is near! Oh this is the night, and the heavens are right! On this lovely bella notte!
L'aventure Composer(s): Jacques Brel Performer(s): Jacques Brel
L'aventure commence à l'aurore À l'aurore de chaque matin L'aventure commence alors Que la lumière nous lave les mains
L'aventure commence à l'aurore Et l'aurore nous guide en chemin L'aventure c'est le trésor Que l'on découvre à chaque matin
Pour Martin c'est le fer sur l'enclume Pour César le vin qui chantera Pour Yvon c'est la mer qu'il écume C'est le jour qui s'allume C'est le blé que l'on bat
L'aventure commence à l'aurore À l'aurore de chaque matin L'aventure commence alors Que la lumière nous lave les mains
Tout ce que l'on cherche à redécouvrir Fleurit chaque jour au coin de nos vies La grande aventure il faut la cueillir Entre notre église et notre mairie Entre la barrière du Père Machin Et le bois joli de monsieur le Baron Et entre la vigne de notre voisin Et le doux sourire de la Madelon
L'aventure commence à l'aurore À l'aurore de chaque matin L'aventure commence alors Que la lumière nous lave les mains L'aventure commence à l'aurore Et l'aurore nous guide en chemin L'aventure c'est le trésor Que l'on découvre à chaque matin
Pour Martin c'est le fer sur l'enclume Pour César le vin qui chantera Pour Yvon c'est la mer qu'il écume C'est le jour qui s'allume C'est le blé que l'on bat
L'aventure commence à l'aurore À l'aurore de chaque matin L'aventure commence alors Que la lumière nous lave les mains
Tous ceux que l'on cherche à pouvoir aimer Sont auprès de nous et à chaque instant Dans le creux des rues dans l'ombre des près Au bout du chemin au milieu des champs Debouts dans le vent et semant le blé Pliés vers le sol saluant la terre Assis près des vieux et tressant l'osier Couchés au soleil, buvant la lumière
L'aventure commence à l'aurore À l'aurore de chaque matin L'aventure commence alors Que la lumière nous lave les mains L'aventure commence à l'aurore Et l'aurore nous guide en chemin L'aventure c'est le trésor Que l'on découvre à chaque matin Pour Martin c'est le fer sur l'enclume Pour César le vin qui chantera Pour Yvon c'est la mer qu'il écume C'est le jour qui s'allume C'est le blé que l'on bat
L'aventure commence à l'aurore Et l'aurore nous guide en chemin L'aventure c'est le trésor Que l'on découvre à chaque matin matin

((Italian Version: Balla Linda (by Lucio Battisti) - 1968))
Composer(s): Lucio Battisti - Mogol - Steve Barri - Barry Gross
Performer(s): The Grass Roots - 1968
Bella Linda, try and understand Bella Linda, I'm doin' all I can Bella Linda, I'm only what I am
It's so hard for me to say The things I really feel If I could I'd chase away The pain your eyes reveal The pain your eyes reveal From foolish things I've done The times that I let you down And I'll never change, believe me I try If you go away, you know that I'll die Oh I love you, please don't say goodbye
Bella Linda, try and understand Bella Linda, I'm doin' all I can Bella Linda, I'm only what I am
We've had bad times Through the years And though I've made you cry Think of me through tender tears And try to close your eyes And try to close your eyes To thoughtless things I do The dreams that don't come true 'Cause I'll never change, believe me I try If you go away, you know that I'll die Oh I need you, please don't say goodbye
Bella Linda, try and understand Bella Linda, I'm doin' all I can Bella Linda, I'm only what I am
Bella Linda, try and understand Bella Linda, I'm doin' all I can Bella Linda, I'm only what I am
