    Leave It
    Composer(s): Paul McCartney
    Performer(s): Mike McGear



    I dearly love her artichokes
    Their continental flavor makes me choke
    Satisfied inside like vinaigrette
    Like an old brown photograph
    Her memory paints forever Polaroid
    Pictures of the day she came my way
    Did she stay?

    She didn't want to leave it
    She didn't want to leave it
    She didn't want to leave it
    Leave it baby it's gone away

    Peeling off her underwear
    She makes me think of daisies shedding their
    Silver metal petals in the air

    Sssupersonic autograph
    For simple stage door Johnny was a laugh
    On the stairway to the star she cried
    'Cause she lied

    She didn't want to leave it
    She didn't want to leave it
    She didn't want to leave it
    Leave it baby it's gone away

    Come on baby don't be late
    I want to help you to celebrate
    Come on leave your world behind
    Leave it Leave it Leave it Leave it
    It's gone away

    Blues In Bob Minor
    Composer(s): Robert Wyatt
    Performer(s): Robert Wyatt



    Roger's in the archive looking up casement
    Martha's in the government digging up the basement
    Rebel into representative for the voter
    Shadow backhencher couldn't get a word in
    Turned up anyway ... issues burning
    All consuming ... drinks in the cabinet
    Spent a lot of time just examining the building
    drinks on the house? you must be joking
    Corridors of power cuts toy telephone bills
    Long time no see underneath the floorboard
    Looking for the roots of the family treetops
    Toe's in the water but you've only got ten.

    Fingers in the eel pie poke around tip top
    Tunnelling a wormhole Eartha Kitty catfish
    Meadow brown peacock ... pupa-larva-caterpillar
    Hibernate in winter of our discotheque no
    End in sight .. more like a spiral ... coil
    Or curler ... just unwinding ... very slowly
    Revealing endless disappearing pipelines
    Genuflecting ... bowing deeply ... it
    Don't take a weathergirl to see where
    The wind is blowing ... what the wind is bending

    Isobars are opening ... sex to midnight
    Cabinet shuffling homeward bound ... taking
    A detour ... rendezvous do ... chapel in the valley
    Of the blown up doll ... that's not Martha
    Shunting in a siding ... she got homework
    Up to here
    Roger's in the footnotes up to his elbones
    Verse and chapter disinterred
    Borrowing a bookcase don't come easy
    The weight of the evidence in parenthesis
    Beggars tightly furled belief

    Heads on blockabeater repetition on the line
    Shell shock supertroopers ... whirl banking oil palm
    Intercontinental drift ... over the rainbow
    Over the sea to ska rocker skintone
    hirsuit missed a link and that's not all
    That he got missing inna thousand years of
    Orthotoxic waste disposal ... god proposal
    Jealous sky ... whatever is a girl to do
    To break the service in its tried and tested
    And found wanting state of oh! boy network
    Stewardship?

    Little Johnny Aardvark never hurt
    Nobody ... Martha friend and Roger too
    Tone down a little ... sotto voce ... some tall order
    Given that four minutes seems eternity time
    In the bushed up world of waspish Vsigns
    A-sides sui-C-side salads of the bad young B-sides
    What's the point of digging deeper just to lay
    The ghost of Sala Hal-Din Yusuf ibn Ayyub?

    "Don't give up" the dead man cried
    "There's more of us than there of you
    Soon you'll all be on our side ... forever more or
    Lester Young died ... 'Fat Girl' also ... blowing all the blues
    Away side ... dust ain't just dust ... trust us like we
    Live forever ... broken loose from greystone tether
    Keep on tiptoe through the archive ... we are dead
    But you are alive ... Martha yes and Roger too
    Until you let the gringos grind you down"

    Leave A Tender Moment Alone
    Composer(s): Billy Joel
    First release by: Billy Joel - 1983



    Even though I'm in love
    Sometimes I get so afraid
    I'll say something so wrong
    Just to have something to say

    I know the moment isn't right
    To tell the girl a comical line
    To keep the conversation light
    I guess I'm just frightened out of my mind

    But if that's how I feel
    Then it's the best feeling I've even known
    It's undeniably real
    Leave a tender moment alone

    Yes I know I'm in love
    But just when I ought to relax
    I put my foot in my mouth
    Cause I'm just avoiding the facts

    If the girl gets too close
    If I need some room to escape
    When the moment arose
    I'd tell her it's all a mistake

    But that's not how I feel
    No that's not the woman I've known
    She's undeniably real
    So leave a tender moment alone

    But it's not only me
    Breaking down when the tension gets high
    Just when I'm in a serious mood
    She is suddenly quiet and shy

    Leave a tender moment
    Leave it alone

    I know the moment isn't right
    To hold my emotions inside
    To change the attitude tonight
    I've run out of places to hide

    And if that's how I feel
    Then it's the best feeling I've even known
    It's undeniably real
    Leave a tender moment alone

    You got to leave a tender moment alone
    Leave a tender moment
    Leave it alone
    You've got to leave a tender moment
    Leave a tender moment alone

    Blues Hangover
    Composer(s): Slim Harpo; Jerry West; James Moore
    Originally performed by: Slim Harpo
    Covered by: George Thorogood & the Destroyers



    Lord, I wonder what done happened
    Ain't nobody here but me
    All these empty bottles on the table here
    I know I didn't drink all this by myself
    I must have a blues hangover
    What's this?
    My check!?!
    And I don't have change for a grasshopper and that's two crookies

    Uh oh, here come Pro
    Sent in for this doggie
    But he ain't got no money
    Look like he done lost everything he ever just had
    Ain't that's a come-off
    Dear me
    I done gave my baby twenty dollars for a Christmas present
    All I got was a slice of jelly cake
    And Sam and Nedetta
    Now that's a wolf-jenny

    Now I'll believe I'll go on back on the stem now
    With James, Rudolph and Tom Cat
    Get my head bad again
    Don't seem like nothin' goin' right for me today
    All Right, here I go
    Same old thing again
    Look out now!

    L'eau Vive
    Composer(s): Guy Béart
    First release by: Guy Béart - 1958



    Ma petite est comme l'eau, elle est comme l'eau vive
    Elle court comme un ruisseau, que les enfants poursuivent
    Courez, courez vite si vous le pouvez
    Jamais, jamais vous ne la rattraperez

    Lorsque chantent les pipeaux, lorsque danse l'eau vive
    Elle mene les troupeaux, au pays des olives
    Venez, venez, mes chevreaux, mes agnelets
    Dans le laurier, le thym et le serpolet

    Un jour que, sous les roseaux, sommeillait mon eau vive
    Vinrent les gars du hameau pour l'emmener captive
    Fermez, fermez votre cage à double cle
    Entre vos doigts, l'eau vive s'envolera

    Comme les petits bateaux, emportes par l'eau vive
    Dans ses yeux les jouvenceaux voguent à la derive
    Voguez, voguez demain vous accosterez
    L'eau vive n'est pas encore à marier

    Pourtant un matin nouveau à l'aube, mon eau vive
    Viendra battre son trousseau, aux cailloux de la rive
    Pleurez, pleurez, si je demeure esseulé
    Le ruisselet, au large, s'en est allé

    Blues From An Airplane
    Composer(s): Marty Balin; Alexander "Skip" Spence
    Performer(s): Jefferson Airplane



    Do you know how sad it is to be a man alone
    I feel so solitary being in my home without you
    I don't know what to do and
    I don't know where you are
    I can see my life is meant to fall apart some day
    Just to be a simple man who sadly goes his way got no girl so
    I got no world and
    I got no words that I'll say
    hey hey woman make me happy like I've never known before
    say you have ever known no heart fore me anymore
    something new, what's that sound around my heart
    I feel something new
    I'm sure your love you've given must be real I know and
    I'm sure of how I can be the man I feel
    I can be the man I feel

    Écoute ma voix écoute ma prière
    Écoute mon cœur qui bat laisse-toi faire
    Je t'en pris ne sois pas farouche
    Quand me viens l'eau à la bouche

    Je te veux confiante je te sens captive
    Je te veux docile je te sens craintive
    Je t'en prie ne sois pas farouche
    Quand me viens l'eau à la bouche

    Laisse toi au gré du courant
    Porter dans le lit du torrent
    Et dans le mien
    Si tu veux bien
    Quittons la rive
    Partons à la dérive
    Je te prendrais doucement et sans contrainte
    De quoi as-tu peur allons n'aie nulle crainte

    Je t'en prie ne sois pas farouche
    Quand me viens l'eau à la bouche

    Cette nuit près de moi tu viendras t'étendre
    Oui je serai calme je saurai t'attendre
    Et pour que tu ne t'effarouches
    Vois je ne prend que ta bouche

    Blues For The Lost Days
    Composer(s): John Mayall; Mick Taylor
    Performer(s): John Mayall



    Looking back through the years
    Like I got myself a time machine
    Memories flood around me
    People and places where I've been
    I had the blues for the lost days
    Back then when times were lean

    From a home in the country with the blues
    On my wind-up gramophone
    Headin' out to the city
    Movin' round like a rollin' stone
    With a band of bluesbreakers
    Make a mark down here on my own

    We had Freddie King, Sonny Boy and Hendrix
    And they'd be sitting in till the break of dawn
    Sweating at the all night Flamingo
    And comin' out to pigeons on a Sunday morn
    So many good times, so much music
    But back then nobody knew
    That the London blues were born

    It's a sad, sad feeling
    When your best friends all drift apart
    Some of them are dead and gone
    But they still live on in my heart
    That's why I have the blues for the lost days
    There ain't never gonna be no counterpart

    Leather And Lace
    Composer(s): Stevie Nicks
    Performer(s): Stevie Nicks; Don Henley; Smoking Popes



    Is love so fragile...
    and the heart so hollow
    Shatter with words...
    impossible to follow
    You're saying I'm fragile...I try not to be
    I search only...for something I can't see

    I have my own life...and I am stronger
    Than you know
    But I carry this feeling
    When you walked into my house
    That you won't be walking out the door
    Still I carry this feeling
    When you walked into my house
    That you won't be walking out the door

    Lovers forever...face to face
    My city, your mountains
    Stay with me stay
    I need you to love me
    I need you today
    Give to me your leather...
    Take from me...my lace

    You in the moonlight
    With your sleepy eyes
    Could you ever love a man like me
    And you were right
    When I walked into your house
    I knew I'd never want to leave
    Sometimes I'm a strong man
    Sometimes cold and scared
    And sometimes I cry
    But that time I saw you
    I knew with you to light my nights
    Somehow I'd get by
    First time I saw you
    I knew with you to light my nights
    Somehow I would get by

    Lovers forever...face to face
    My city, your mountains
    Stay with me stay
    I need you to love me
    I need you today
    Give to me your leather
    Take from me...my lace

    Lovers forever...face to face
    My city ,you mountains...stay with me stay
    I need you to love me...I need you to stay
    Give to me your leather
    Take from me...my lace
    Take from me...my lace
    Take from me...my lace

    Blues For My Baby And Me
    Composer(s): Elton John; Bernie Taupin
    Performer(s): Elton John



    Your old man got mad when I told him we were leaving
    He cursed and he raged and he swore at the ceiling
    He called you his child said honey get wise to his game
    He'll get you in trouble I know it, those bums are all the same
    There's a greyhound outside in the lane, it's waiting for us
    So tell him goodbye, we gotta go west on that bus
    And it's all over now
    Don't you worry no more
    Gonna go west to the sea
    The greyhound is swaying
    And the radio is playing
    Some blues for baby and me
    And the highway looks like it never did
    Lord it looks so sweet and so free
    And I can't forget that trip to the west
    Singing blues for baby and me

    Saw your hands trembling, your eyes opened in surprise
    It's ninety in the shade babe, and there ain't a cloud in the sky
    I called you my child, said honey now it's our game
    There's two of us to play it and I'm happy to be home again
    There's a greyhound outside in the lane, it's waiting for us
    So tell him goodbye, we gotta go west on that bus

    and multiple other artists



    Well I started out down a dirty road
    Started out all alone
    And the sun went down as I crossed the hill
    The town lit up the world got still

    I’m learning to fly but I ain’t got wings
    Comin’ down is the hardest thing

    Well the good old days may not return
    And the rocks might melt, and the sea may burn

    I’m learning to fly but I ain’t got wings
    Comin’ down is the hardest thing

    Well some say life will beat you down
    Break your heart, steal your crown
    So I started out for God kno ws where
    But I guess I’ll know when I get there

    I’m learning to fly around the clouds
    But what goes up must come down

    I’m learning to fly but I ain’t got wings
    Comin’ down is the hardest thing
    I’m learning to fly around the clouds
    But what goes up must come down

    I’m learning to fly
    I’m learning to fly

    Mickey Hart; Robert Hunter; Bill Kreutzmann; Phil Lesh; Bob Weir
    Originally performed by: Grateful Dead
    Covered by: Jazz Is Dead; Henry Kaiser



    Arabian wind, the needle's eye is thin
    The ships of state sail on mirage and drown in sand
    Out in no man's land, where Allah does command
    What good is spilling blood?
    It will not grow a thing
    "Taste eternity", the swords sing
    Blues for Allah, Insh'Allah
    They lie where they fall, there's nothing more to say
    The desert stars are bright tonight, let's meet as friends

    The flower of Islam, the fruit of Abraham
    The thousand stories have come round to one again
    Arabian night, our gods pursue their flight
    What fatal flowers of darkness bloom from seeds of light
    Bird of Paradise fly in the white sky

    Blues for Allah, Insh'Allah
    Let's see with our heart these things our eyes have seen
    And know the truth must still lie somewhere in between

    Under eternity
    Under eternity
    Under eternity
    Under eternity
    Under eternity
    Under eternity

    Bird of Paradise fly in white sky
    Blues for Allah, Insh'Allah

    Learning To Fly
    Composer(s): Jon Carin - David Gilmour - Bob Ezrin - Anthony Moore - David Gilmour
    First release by: Pink Floyd - 1987



    Into the distance, a ribbon of black
    Stretched to the point of no turning back
    A flight of fancy on a windswept field
    Standing alone my senses reeled
    A fatal attraction holding me fast, how
    Can I escape this irresistible grasp?

    Can't keep my eyes from the circling skies
    Tongue-tied and twisted just an earth-bound misfit, I

    Ice is forming on the tips of my wings
    Unheeded warnings, I thought I thought of everything
    No navigator to guide my way home
    Unladened, empty and turned to stone

    A soul in tension that's learning to fly
    Condition grounded but determined to try
    Can't keep my eyes from the circling skies
    Tongue-tied and twisted just an earth-bound misfit, I

    Friction lock - set
    Mixture - rich
    Propellers - fully forward
    Flaps - set - 10 degrees
    Engine gauges and suction - check

    Mixture set to maximum percent - recheck
    Flight instruments...
    Altimeters - check both
    (garbled word) - on
    Navigation lights - on
    Strobes - on
    (to tower): confirm 3-8-echo ready for departure
    (tower): hello again, this is now 129.4
    (to tower): 129.4
    It's time to go
    (tower): you may commence your takeoff, winds over 10 knots
    (to tower): 3-8-echo
    Easy on the brakes
    Take it easy
    It's gonna roll this time
    Just hand the power gradually, and it...

    Above the planet on a wing and a prayer
    My grubby halo, a vapour trail in the empty air
    Across the clouds I see my shadow fly
    Out of the corner of my watering eye
    A dream unthreatened by the morning light
    Could blow this soul right through the roof of the night

    There's no sensation to compare with this
    Suspended animation, a state of bliss
    Can't keep my eyes from the circling skies
    Tongue-tied and twisted just an earth-bound misfit, I

    I have the blues before sunrise, tears standing in my eyes
    I have the blues before sunrise, tears standing in my eyes
    It was a miserable feeling, now babe, a feeling I do despise

    I have to leave, leave you baby, because you know you done me wrong
    I have to leave you baby, because you know you done me wrong
    I'm gonna pack up and leave you darling and break up my happy home

    I have to leave, leave you baby, I'm gonna leave you all alone
    I'm gonna leave you baby, I'm gonna leave you all alone
    I'm gonna pack up and leave you darling because you know you done me wrong

    Well now goodbye, goodbye baby, I'll see you on some rainy day
    Well now goodbye baby, I'll see you on some rainy day
    You can go ahead now little darling, 'cause I want you to have your way

    Learning The Game
    ((French Version: La Règle Du Jeu (by Éric James) - 1998))
    Composer(s): Buddy Holly
    First release by: Buddy Holly - 1960
    Covered by multiple other artists



    Hearts that are broken and love that's untrue
    These go with learning the game

    When you love her but she doesn't love you
    You're only learning the game

    When she says that you're the only one she'll ever love
    Then you find that you are not the one she's thinking of

    Feeling so sad and you're all alone and blue
    That's when you're learning the game

    Blues As Blues Can Get
    Composer(s): J. Fred Knobloch; Tim Krekel
    Performer(s): Delbert McClinton;
    Fabulous Horndogs; Chris Farlowe



    Gonna sit right down in my easy chair
    Pull out a deck of cards, play some solitaire
    Break out a bottle, wash me a glass
    To keep me company 'til the feelings pass
    Everybody needs someting to do
    Me, I'll just sit here and think about you
    It might seem hopeless, but it ain't that bad yet
    It's just the blues as blues can get...

    I need to call somebody, someone I can trust
    I need the number for lovers' anonymous
    I'll tell 'em my story, hope they understand
    Maybe they can explain it to me
    'cause I don't think I can
    I'll take your picture down from my wall
    Try to remember the thrill of it all
    I know it's over, but it ain't over yet
    It's just the blues as blues can get...

    Why fight the feeling when I can't fight back the tears
    I stare at the ceiling and wish that you were here
    I'm going crazy, but I ain't crazy yet
    It's just the blues as blues can get...

    Learning The Blues
    Composer(s): Dolores Vicki Silvers
    First release by: Joe Valino - 1955
    Covered by multiple other artists



    The tables are empty - the dance floor's deserted
    You play the same love song - it's the tenth time you've heard it
    That's the beginning - just one of the clues
    You've had your first lesson - in learnin' the blues

    The cigarettes you light - one after another
    Won't help you forget her - and the way that you love her
    You're only burnin' - a torch you can't lose
    But you're on the right track - for learnin' the blues

    When you're at home alone, the blues will taunt you constantly
    When you're out in a crowd, the blues will haunt your memory

    The nights when you don't sleep - the whole night you're cryin'
    But you can't forget her - soon you even stop tryin'
    You'll walk that floor - and wear out your shoes
    When you feel your heart break - you're learnin' the blues

    When you're at home alone, the blues will taunt you constantly
    When you're out in a crowd, those blues will haunt your memory

    The nights when you don't sleep - that whole night you're cryin'
    But you can't forget her - soon you even stop tryin'
    You'll walk the floor - and you'll wear out your shoes
    When you feel your heart break - you're learnin' those blues

    Blues And Booze
    Composer(s): Ma Rainey
    Performer(s): Ma Rainey



    Went to bed last night, and boy I was in my sleep, sleep
    I went to bed last night, and I was in my sleep
    Woke up this mornin', the police was shakin' me

    I went to the jailhouse, drunk and blues as I could be
    I went to the jailhouse, drunk and blues as I could be
    But that cruel old judge sent my man away from me

    They carried me to the courthouse, Lordy, how I was cryin'
    They carried me to the courthouse, Lordy, how I was cryin'
    They jailed me sixty days in jail, and money couldn't pay my fine

    Sixty days ain't long if you can spend them as you choose
    Sixty days ain't long if you can spend them as you choose
    But this seems like jail than a cell where there ain't no booze

    My life is all a misery when I cannot get my booze
    My life is all a misery when I cannot get my booze
    I spend every dime on liquor, got to have the booze to go with these blues

    Learn To Croon
    Composer(s): Sam Coslow - Arthur Johnston
    Performer(s): Bing Crosby
    and multiple other artists



    Learn to croon
    If you want to win your heart's desire
    Sweet melodies of love inspire
    Romance
    Just murmur da da dee da da da
    And when you do
    She'll answer da da dee da da
    And nestle closer to you
    Learn to croon
    You'll eliminate each rival soon
    If you're heading for a sunny honeymoon
    Learn to croon

    In days of old when knights were bold
    Fair ladies were enraptured
    By stirring deeds of chivalry and daring
    But nowadays in other ways
    Sweet maids are one encaptured
    You'll hear the best authorities declaring

    Learn to croon
    Ya da da dee da da da da
    La da da da dee da da da
    La da da da dee
    Just murmur da da dee da da da dee
    And when you do
    She’ll answer da da dee da da dee dee
    And nestle closer to you
    Learn to croon
    You'll eliminate each rival soon
    If you're heading for a sunny honeymoon
    Learn to croon

    Blues Ain't Nothin' Else But!
    Performer(s): Ida Cox



    Oh the blues ain't nothin' but your lover on your mind
    Oh the blues ain't nothin' but your lover on your mind
    The man that keeps you worried, and always cryin'

    Oh the blues ain't nothin' but a good woman wanting to see her man
    Oh the blues ain't nothin' but a good woman wanting to see her man
    She can't get when she want him, gotta catch him when she can

    Oh the blues ain't nothin' but a slow achin' heart disease
    Oh the blues ain't nothin' but a slow achin' heart disease
    Just like consumption, it kills you by degrees

    Oh the blues ain't nothin' but a woman that cries night and day
    Oh the blues ain't nothin' but a woman that cries night and day
    Cryin' about her lover, another woman took him away

    Oh papa papa papa, mama done gone mad
    Oh papa papa papa, mama done gone mad
    Oh the blues ain't nothin' but a good woman feelin' bad
