J'étais jeune
J'avais pas 20 ans
J'étais increvable
J'avais tout mon temps
J'avais toute ma force
On ne pouvait pas me bouger
Comme un roc

J'avais 20 ans
Les choses étaient claires
J'ai trouvé une femme
Une femme que j'aimais
Y avait pas de mystère
Un amour très fort
Comme roc

Les deux mains valides
Tranquilles et solides
J'avais tout construit
Dans ma vie
Y avait toi et moi
Je me tenais tout droit
Comme un roc

Comme un roc
J'avais confiance en la vie
Comme un roc
Il pouvait rien m'arriver
Comme un roc
C'était parti pour durer
Comme un roc

Et je criais mon espoir de réussir
Ne pas mentir ni tromper ni blesser
J'étais fier j'étais fort
Je défiais la mort
Comme un roc
Oh, je croyais à tous mes rêves

Butterscotch Candy And Strawberry Pie
Composer(s): Roberts
Performer(s): Jack Lewis & The Americans



Butterscotch candy and strawberry pie
Gonna love my baby till the day that I die
'Cause of butterscotch candy and strawberry pie
Well I met my baby in a goodies shop
Sellin' butterscotch candy and soda pop and strawberry pie
Now I said, pretty baby I love your eyes
But in the back of my mind were those strawberry pies
So I said, pretty baby won't you please be mine
Butterscotch candy and strawberry pie
Gonna love my baby till the day that I die
'Cause of butterscotch candy and strawberry pie
Now she said yes and we were wed
In a butterscotch church on a strawberry bed
In the middle of May on the sunniest day of all
Now I'll eat my fill of strawberry pie
And butterscotch candy till the day that I die
My baby and I gonna have ourselves a ball

Like A Prayer
Composer(s): Madonna - Patrick Leonard
First release by: Madonna - 1989
Covered by multiple other artists



Life is a mystery, everyone must stand alone
I hear you call my name
And it feels like home

When you call my name it's like a little prayer
I'm down on my knees, I wanna take you there
In the midnight hour I can feel your power
Just like a prayer you know I'll take you there

I hear your voice, it's like an angel sighing
I have no choice, I hear your voice
Feels like flying
I close my eyes, Oh God I think I'm falling
Out of the sky, I close my eyes
Heaven help me

When you call my name it's like a little prayer
I'm down on my knees, I wanna take you there
In the midnight hour I can feel your power
Just like a prayer you know I'll take you there

Like a child you whisper softly to me
You're in control just like a child
Now I'm dancing
It's like a dream, no end and no beginning
You're here with me, it's like a dream
Let the choir sing

When you call my name it's like a little prayer
I'm down on my knees, I wanna take you there
In the midnight hour I can feel your power
Just like a prayer you know I'll take you there

Just like a prayer, your voice can take me there
Just like a muse to me, you are a mystery
Just like a dream, you are not what you seem
Just like a prayer, no choice your voice can take me there

Just like a prayer, I'll take you there
It's like a dream to me

Shule, shule, shule-a-roo
Shule-a-rak-shak, shule-a-ba-ba-coo
When I saw my Sally Babby Beal
come bibble in the boo shy Lorey

Here I sit on Buttermilk Hill
who could blame me, cry my fill
Every tear would turn a mill
Johnny's gone for a soldier

Shule, shule, shule-a-roo
Shule-a-rak-shak, shule-a-ba-ba-coo
When I saw my Sally Babby Beal
come bibble in the boo shy Lorey

I sold my flax, I sold my wheel
to buy my love a sword of steel
So it in battle he might wield
Johnny's gone for a soldier

Shule, shule, shule-a-roo
Shule-a-rak-shak, shule-a-ba-ba-coo
When I saw my Sally Babby Beal
come bibble in the boo shy Lorey

Oh my baby, oh, my love
gone the rainbow, gone the dove
Your father was my only love
Johnny's gone for a soldier

Shule, shule, shule-a-roo
Shule-a-rak-shak, shule-a-ba-ba-coo
When I saw my Sally Babby Beal
come bibble in the boo shy Lorey

Like a lover the morning sun
Slowly rises and kisses you awake
Your smile is soft and drowsy
As you let it play upon your face

Oh, how I dream I might be like the morning sun to you
(I might be like the morning sun to you)
Like a lover the river wind, sighs and ripples
Its fingers through your hair
Upon your cheek it lingers 
And I've never known a sweeter place
Oh, how I dream I might be like the river wind to you
(I might be like the river wind to you)

How I envy a cup that knows your lips
Let it be me, my love
And a table that feels your fingertips
Let it be me, let me be your love
Bring an end to the endless days and nights
Without you

Like a lover the velvet moon 
Shares your pillow and watches while you sleep
It's light arrives on tiptoe
Gently taking you in its embrace
Oh, how I dream I might be like a velvet moon to you
(I might be like the velvet moon to you)

Oh, how I dream I might be like a river wind to you

Let it be me, let me be your love
Bring an end to the endless days and nights

Its light arrives on tiptoe
Gently taking you in its embrace

Oh, how I dream I might be like a velvet moon to you

I might be like a velvet moon to you
(I might be like a velvet moon to you)
I might be like a velvet moon to you

I might be like a velvet moon to you

I might be like ...

Buttermilk Boy
Composer(s): Steve Marriott
Performer(s): Humble Pie



Yeah, she pays no mind to methods you employ
She wants a big city man, not a country boy

Go get your long hair cut
Scrape the mud off your boots
Eh, wash the hell behind those ears
Buy yourself some tailored suits

Oh, Buttermilk Boy better gain some pounds
Before she lets her knickers down
She wants a musclely man all gristle and bone
Makes no difference how you strive
She couldn't care if you were dead or alive
A burly, beefy, strong arm man
Is all she cares to meet

Before you ever heard the word guitar
Yes, your mother used to see her as a star
Yes, she spent her teens?
In chauffered limosines
And I heard tell you can't get insured
For a clapped out '45 drop head Ford

Oh, Buttermilk Boy better gain some pounds
Before she lets her knick, knick, knick, knickers down
She wants a musclely man all gristle and bone
She'll tear you down like a steer comin' through
Like I said she ain't no use to you
A lumpy hairy mundane brain
Is all she cares to make

So let me put you straight, yeah
Marry farm-yard Kate
Yep, she weighs two hundred pounds its said
Oh, she'll keep you warm in bed

Oh, Buttermilk Boy, you better gain some pounds
Before she lets her knick, I say, knickers down
Well, a musclely man all gristle and bone
So you like to think you know where its about
But she'll suck you in and then she'll blow you out
Yeah, Kate will keep you satisfied
Until your dying day

Yeah, let me hear some of that strong-arm music

Like A Hurricane
Composer(s): Neil Young

Covered by multiple other artists



Once I thought I saw you in a crowded, hazy bar
dancing on the light from star to star
Far across the moon beams
I know that's who you are
I saw your brown eyes turning once to fire

You are like a hurricane: there's calm in your eye
And I'm getting blown away
There's somewhere safer where the feelings stay
I wanna love you but I'm getting blown away

I am just a dreamer, but you are just a dream
and you could have been anyone to me
Before that moment you touched my lips
that perfect feeling when time just slips away
between us and our foggy trips

You are like a hurricane: there's calm in your eye
And I'm getting blown away
There's somewhere safer where the feelings stay
I wanna love you but I'm getting blown away

You are just a dreamer, and I am just a dream
and you could have been anyone to me
Before that moment you touched my lips
that perfect feeling when time just slips away
between us and our foggy trips

You are like a hurricane: there's calm in your eye
And I'm getting blown away
There's somewhere safer where the feelings stay
I wanna love you but I'm getting blown away

Butterfly Baby, lookin' around
Flyin' like crazy, all over town
Oh you little Butterfly Baby, I'll hang around
Hopin' that maybe someday you'll settle down
When you're done and there's only one
Who will your honey be?
Hear my plea, won't you let it be me

Butterfly Baby, 'bout time you knew
I love you like crazy, I love only you
Oh you little Butterfly Baby when will you see
Butterfly Baby, oooo, you've got a trial with me

You'll be my baby, ya, exclusively
Oh you little Butterfly Baby, then you will see

Like A Hurricane
Composer(s): Michael Clark
Performer(s): Marie Osmond



Baby, the girls want to know about you
they want to know what you do to make me so crazy
'Cause lately, they see how I've turned around
my feet never touch the ground since you've been near me
They're asking "Is the boy really that hot?"
I tell them yes you are
"Can you tell us what the boy's got?"
Well, that's kind of hard
You see, it's not that easy
I know they wouldn't believe me....

'Cause you love me like a hurricane
you move me like a drivin' rain
strike like lightnin' out of the blue
You rock me like an earthquake
you roll me like a tidal wave
nothin's ever been the same after lovin' you
After lovin' you.......

But baby, they didn't believe a word
they said that they've never heard of a boy like that
That maybe I was stretchin' out the truth
tryin' to take them for a fool with a story like that
They kept asking "Is the boy really that hot?"
I tell them yes you are
"Can you tell us what the boy's got?"
Well, that's kind of hard
You see, it's not that easy
I know they wouldn't believe me....

'Cause you love me like a hurricane
you move me like a drivin' rain
strike like lightnin' out of the blue
You rock me like an earthquake
you roll me like a tidal wave
nothin's ever been the same after lovin' you
After lovin' you.......

'Cause you love me like a hurricane
you move me like a drivin' rain
strike like lightnin' out of the blue
You rock me like an earthquake
you roll me like a tidal wave
nothin's ever been the same after lovin' you

'Cause you love me like a hurricane
you move me like a drivin' rain
strike like lightnin' out of the blue
You rock me like an earthquake
you roll me like a tidal wave
nothin's ever been the same after lovin' you
'Cause you love me like a hurricane ...

Fell in love in the wink of an eye 
With the girl who was called Butterfly
She said she loved me so she could not let me go 
But still I had to say goodbye

Butterfly my Butterfly 
I'll come home to you one day
Butterfly my Butterfly 
Wait for me don't fly away

Never fly in the heat of the sun 
Close your wings when the long day is done
Stay home and wait for me till I get back 
And then counting the minutes one by one

Butterfly my Butterfly...

When a man longs to be free 
He will sail to the end of the sea
I won't be gone too long but while I travel on 
Just close your wings and wait for me

Butterfly my Butterfly...
Butterfly my Butterfly...

And the sun shines on the bay

Ooh, ooh.....

So you think you're lonely

Ooh, ooh.....

It's sad, oh there's been mornings out on the road without you

Without your charms
Ooh, my, my, my ...

Tu me dis loin des yeux, loin du cœur
Tu me dis qu'on oublie le meilleur
Malgré les horizons,
Je sais qu'elle m'aime encore
Cette fille que j'avais surnommée 

Butterfly, my Butterfly
Dans un mois je reviendrais
Butterfly, my Butterfly
Près de toi je resterais

L'océan c'est petit, tout petit
Pour deux cœurs où l'amour a grandi
Malgré ce que tu dis,
Tu vois qu'elle m'aime encore
Cette fille que j'avais enlacée

Butterfly, my Butterfly
Dans un mois je reviendrais
Butterfly, my Butterfly
Près de toi je resterais

Notre amour est si grand, oui si grand
Que le ciel y tiendrait tout dedans
Malgré ce que tu dis,
Je sais qu'elle m'aime encore
Cette fille que j'avais embrassée

Lightning's Girl
Composer(s): Lee Hazlewood
Performer(s): Nancy Sinatra; Lydia Lunch



I've told you that I'm Lightning's girl
But you keep hanging 'round
If Lightning ever catches you
He's got to put you down
About six feet!

Stay away from Lightning's girl
And this part of town
Stay away from Lightning's girl
Or he'll put you down...yeah

Better stop your grooving 'round
Another rooster's hen
If Lightning ever catches you
He's got to do you in
In about two minutes!

Stay away from Lightning's girl
And this part of town
Stay away from Lightning's girl
Or he'll put you down

Here comes Lightning down the street
While you just stand there talking
If I were you I'd start to move
And tell my story walking
About a hundred miles an hour!

Stay away from Lightning's girl
And this part of town
Stay away from Lightning's girl
Or he'll put you down

Stay away from Lightning's g-i-r-l
Stay away from Lightning's g-i-r-l
Stay away from Lightning's g-i-r-l
Stay away from Lightning's g-i-r-l

You tell me you love me, you say you'll be true
Then you fly around with somebody new
But I'm crazy about you, you butterfly

You treat me mean, you're makin' me cry

One taste and I'm outta my mind

I love you so much I know what I'll do
I'm clippin' your wings, your flyin' is through

Lightning Express
Composer(s): Bradley Kincaid
Performer(s): The Everly Brothers
and multiple other artists



The Lightning Express from the depot so grand 
Had started out on its way 
All of the passengers that were on board 
Seemed to be happy and gay 
But one little boy, who sat by himself 
was reading a letter he had
You can plainly tell by the look on his face 
that the contents of it made him sad

The stern old conductor then started his round 
taking tickets from everyone there
And finally reaching the side of the boy 
he gruffly demanded his fare
'I have no ticket,' the boy then replied
'but I'll pay you back, someday' 
'Then I'll put you off at the next stop we make' 
but he stopped when he heard the boy say

'Please Mr. Conductor, don't put me off of this train 
The best friend I have in this world, sir 
is waiting for me in pain
Expecting to die any moment, sir 
and may not live through the day 
I want to reach home and kiss mother goodbye
Before God takes her away' 

A girl, sitting near, was heard to exclaim
'If you put him off, it's a shame!' 
Taking his hat, a collection she made 
The boy's way was paid on the train 
'I'm obliged to you, miss
for your kindness to me' 
'You're welcome,' she said, 'never fear' 
Each time the conductor would pass through the car 
The boy's words would ring in his ear

'Please Mr. Conductor, don't put me off of this train 
The best friend I have in this world, sir 
is waiting for me in pain
Expecting to die any moment, sir 
and may not live through the day
I want to reach home and kiss mother goodbye

Before God takes her away' 

Butterflies In The Rain
Composer(s): Sherman Myers; Erell Reaves
Performer(s): Ray Noble & Al Bowlly
and various other artists



When the rain is pattering helter skelter
And the butterflies are caught out in the rain
Leafy hollyhocks would murmur come and shelter
Until the rainbow shines again

In the heart of every roses apron
From the pitter patter pitter pat refrain
There's protection from the showers
From the sympathetic flowers
For the butterflies in the rain

Pretty things, you'll have to fold your wings
Waiting for the bright and placid sun showers
`Neath the broad protection of the sunflowers
Gone the rain, the sky is clear again
You can carry on your sweet flirtation
With every blushing rose

Listen to me, baby, you got to understand
You're old enough to know the makings of a man
Listen to me, baby, it's hard to settle down
Am I asking too much for you to stick around

Every boy wants a girl
He can trust to the very end
Baby, that's you
Won't you wait but 'til then

When I see lips beggin' to be kissed (Stop!)
I can't stop (Stop!) I can't stop myself
(Stop! Stop!)

Lightnin's striking again
Lightnin's striking again

Nature's takin' over my one-track mind
Believe it or not, you're in my heart all the time
All the girls are sayin' that you'll end up a fool
For the time being, baby, live by the rules

When I settle down
I want one baby on my mind
Forgive and forget
And I'll make up for all lost time

If she's put together fine and she's readin' my mind (Stop!)
I can't stop (Stop!) I can't stop myself
(Stop! Stop!)

Lightnin's striking again
Lightnin's striking again and again and again and again

Lightnin's striking again
Lightnin's striking again

There's a chapel in the pines
Waiting for us around the bend
Picture in your mind
Love forever, but 'til then

If she gives me a sign that she wants to make time (Stop!)
I can't stop (Stop!) I can't stop myself
(Stop! Stop!)

Lightnin's striking again
Lightnin's striking again and again and again and again
Lightnin's striking again and again and again and again

All you gotta do is just walk away and pass me by
Don't acknowledge my smile when I try to say hello to you, yeah
And all you gotta do is not answer my calls when I'm tryin' to get through
Keep me wondering why when all I can do is sigh
I just wanna touch you

I just wanna touch and kiss
Said I wish that I could be with you tonight
`Cause you give me butterflies inside
Inside and I

All I gotta say is that I must be dreamin', can't be real
You're not here with me, still I can feel you near to me, near
I caress you, let you taste us, just so blissful, listen
I would give you anything, baby, just make my dreams come true
Oh, baby, you give me butterflies

I just wanna touch and kiss
Said I wish that I could be with you tonight
`Cause you give me butterflies inside

I just wanna touch and kiss
Said I wish that I could be with you tonight

If you would take my hand, baby, I will show you
Guide you to the light, baby
If you would be my love, baby I will love you, love you
Till the end of time

I just wanna touch and kiss
Said I wish that I could be with you tonight
You give me butterflies inside
Inside and I

I just wanna touch and kiss
Said I wish that I could be with you tonight
You give me butterflies inside

Said I wish that I could be with you tonight
`Cause you give me butterflies inside

Eeuwig op zoek naar die vrouw uit mijn droom
Die ik nog altijd niet vond
Tot ik het beu was - werd ik plots beloond
Kwam zij die niet bestond

En ik zei jij
jij bent de vrouw naar m'n hart
Op jou heb ik gewacht
Jij,jij bent zo rechtdoor, zo puur
Voor jou ga ik door vuur

Zoals jij praat,zo rechttoe,zo rechtaan
Die sproeten op haar neus
Lach op haar monden,die ogen zo klaar
Niet stout maar ook niet preuts

Dus ik zei jij
Jij bent een vrouw naar m'n hart
Op jou heb ik gewacht
Jij,jij bent zo rechtdoor, zo puur
Voor jou ga ik door vuur

Nog geen minuut heb ik spijt van die keer
Waarop zij zo plots voor me stond
Waar zij voorgoed in mijn leven verscheen
En 't geluk voor ons beiden begon

Want ik zei jij
Jij bent een vrouw naar m'n hart
Op jou heb ik gewacht
Jij,jij bent zo rechtdoor, zo puur
Voor jou ga ik door vuur
