She Never Said A Solitary Word Performer(s): Foy Willing & The Riders of the Purple Sage
I was ridin' 'cross the prairie The prairie far and wide When I saw a gal come riding And I rode up very closely by her side
But she never said a word Not a solitary word She never said a solitary word I took her many charms Held her closely in my arms But she never said a solitary word
I said, "Ma'am The way you kissed me I'll remember all my life And I want you for my everlovin' wife"
But she never said a word Not a solitary word She never said a solitary word I took her many charms Held her closely in my arms But she never said a solitary word
On the day that we got married I was happy till I saw Pearly teeth upon the dresser And her wooden leg was holding back the door
But I never said a word Though she chattered like a bird I never said a solitary word I just saddled up old paint And I got to where she ain't And I never said a solitary word
Quitter L'Enfance Composer(s): Maxime le Forestier; Julien Clerc Performer(s): Julien Clerc
Un rien te fait rougir Comme un feu de brindilles Et tu hais les familles Comme j'ai pu les hair
Un rien te fait rougir Et tu voudrais changer Le sens du verbe aimer Sans les mots pour le dire
Je lis ton innocence Dans le noir de tes bas Tu peux quitter l'enfance Ton enfance Ne te quitte pas Tes lèvres se colorent Maintenant que tu veilles Et tes poupées sont vieilles Maintenant que tu sors
Maitenant que tu danses À chacun de tes pas Tu peux quitter l'enfance Ton enfance Ne te quitte pas
Je ne peux rien te dire Je n'ai pas été fille J'ai hai les familles Comme tu peux les hair
She Never Met A Man (She Didn't Like) Composer(s): Dolly Parton Dolly Parton
I know you think you love her and you're making plans to leave But I must tell you something I just hope you'll believe I know it isn't real love that you see in her eyes Cause she's never met a man she didn't like And you're no different from the others A new acquaintence in the night You mean no more to her than all the others she's held tight But I know she's convinced you it was love at first sight But she's never met a man she didn't like
I must let you go but I want you to know That I love you please don't let her ruin our lives For there'll be other men and she won't want you then She's never met a man she didn't like
I must let you go but I want you to know That I love you please don't let her ruin our lives For she'll have other men oh and she won't want you then Cause she's never met a man she didn't like Oh no she's never met a man she didn't like
Quizás Le Dancen Los Cuervos Composer(s): Léon Gieco Performer(s): León Gieco
Cuando tu vida te pida unas tristes melodías que el viento mudo las lleve para que otros también se enteren
Es que hay tanta gente que por mas que uno los lustre nunca su brillo se verá en su mente Es que hay tanta gente que por mas que uno le explique nunca su rabia se convertirá en pena Ay, adentro, si se vieran adentro quizás le dancen los cuervos
Cuando tu nombre desprecie lo que pase por enfrente es que un pedazo de tierra se está muriendo de verguenza
Es que hay tanta gente que no mira ni a los ojos mezcla de poca suerte, broncas y odios
Es que hay tanta gente que se siente despareja hacen que otros cuelguen de sus condenas
Ay, adentro, si se vieran adentro quizás le dancen los cuervos
She Never Heard Me Call Composer(s): Graham Russell; Rex Goh Performer(s): Air Supply
One warm night I fell in love The air was still the words would flow We knew each other oh so well And though just met you'd never tell
Sometimes we're just lonely hearts That ride upon a floating card Prepared to live those sleepless nights For precious time in paradise
And now I find the future's gone The reasons that I had to carry on are gone I tried for it all She never heard me call at all
There's no regrets we made the choice We listened to that silent voice That haunts you till you just give in And makes you like a child again
We drifted close then said good-byes Just reading well each other's eyes The world had turned while we stood still And held on to each other
And now I find the future's gone The reasons that I had to carry on are gone I tried for it all She never heard me call at all
And in between the right and wrong Is somewhere that sometimes you can belong I tried for it all She never heard me call And now I find the future's gone The reasons that I had to carry on are gone I cried for it all She never heard me call at all
She Moves Me Composer(s): Muddy Waters First release by: Muddy Waters - 1951
She moves me man, honey and I don't see how its done She moves me man, honey and I don't see how its done She gotta pocket full of money, little doll don't try to help me though
She move me when she get drunk, then she say I'm not nowhere She call me a dumbbell, she tells me I'm nothing but a square She moves me man, honey and I don't see how its done She got a pocket full of money, the little girl don't try to help me though (What kinda woman is that?)
She move a crazy man, who say now I'm not so dumb I take her to a funeral boy, the dead jumped up to run She look at a deaf and dumb boy, said now I can speak She shook her finger in a blind man's face, once I was blind but now I see She moves me man, honey and I don't see how its done She gotta pocket full of money, the little girl don't try to help me though
Qu'on Est Bien Composer(s): Guy Béart Performer(s): Juliette Gréco
{Refrain:} Qu'on est bien Dans les bras D'une personne du sexe opposé Qu'on est bien Dans ces bras-là Qu'on est bien Dans les bras D'une personne du genre qu'on n'a pas Qu'on est bien Dans ces bras-là
C'est la vraie prière La prochaine aime le prochain C'est la vraie grammaire Le masculin s'accorde avec le féminin
{au Refrain}
Certains jouent quand même Les atouts de même couleur Libres à eux moi j'aime Les valets sur les dames les trèfles sur les curs.
{au Refrain}
Les creux sur les bosses Tout finit par se marier Les bons sur les rosses Et même les colombes avec les éperviers
{au Refrain}
Qu'on est bien Dans les bras D'une personne du sexe opposé Qu'on est bien Dans ces bras Là
My young love said to me: My mother won't mind And my father won't slight you for your lack of kind She put her arms 'round me; these words she did say It will not be long, love, 'til our wedding day!
Then she stepped away from me, and she moved through the Fair And so fondly I watched her move here and move there At last she turned homeward, with one star awake As the Swan in the evening moves over the lake
Last night she came to me, my dead love came in And so soft did she move that her feet made no din She put her arms 'round me; these words she did say It will not be long, love, 'til our wedding day!
She Means Nothing To Me Composer(s): Sunny David Performer(s): Phil Everly & Cliff Richard
Well here she comes now I'm on the run now Pretending just pretending that I don't see her
Just to teach her but Darlin' How much longer can I keep on living this lie? She means nothing to me she means nothing to` me
I'm still as free as a bird don't care what you heard about me She means nothing to me - no more She's my world not just some girl
Harder it's getting harder to fool anyone not just her But I act like a man she'd expect me to: No tears win her respect Who am I fooling if I can't fool me? Who believes what their eyes don't see? But I keep on lying She means nothing to me she don't she means nothing to me. . . . All my dreams are depending on her and how good I'm pretending that She means nothing to me nothing she means nothing to me . . . She means nothing to me she don't she means nothing to me . . .
Qu'y A-T-Il De Changé? Composer(s): Serge Lama; Yves Gilbert Performer(s): Marie Laforêt
Un carillon ding dong Fait un peu de ping pong Dans l'espace léger Les cloches se répondent Aux quatre coins du monde Qu'y a-t-il de changé?
Un soleil blanc là-bas Ajoute un zéro à L'addition de l'été Il fait beau dans la tête Des gens de la planète Est-ce l'éternité?
Un Pierrot fou d'amour A cent fois fait le tour Du monde en cerf-volant Il fait tourner les tables Il a l'air d'un bon diable Sous son air insolent
Les enfants ont du cur Ils font pousser des fleurs Autour de leurs cerceaux Rien qu'en faisant la ronde Ils bâtissent un monde Où les enfants sont beaux
Tous les chasseurs d'antan Jouent à tuer le temps Plus jamais de vautours Les gibiers de potence Ont mis leur insolence Au compte de l'amour
Tout ceci n'est pas vrai C'est un mauvais portrait Eh bien ma foi tant pis Puisque le jour se lève Et dessine mon rêve Aux formes de Paris
Car le monde est au fond Au fond au fond au fond Comme dans les chansons Et les jours où il pleut Quand le ciel est moins bleu Y a qu'à fermer les yeux
She May Have Seen Better Days Composer(s): James Thornton Performer(s): George J. Gaskin and multiple other artists
While strolling along with the city's vast throng On a night that was bitterly cold I noticed a crowd who were laughing aloud At something they chanced to behold
I stopped for to see what the object could be And there on a doorstep lay A woman in tears from the crowd's angry jeers And then I heard somebody say
She may have seen better days when she was in her prime She may have seen better days once upon a time Though by the wayside she fell, she may yet mend her ways Some poor old mother is waiting for her who has seen better days
If we could tell why the poor creature fell Perhaps we'd not be so severe If the truth were but known on this outcast alone Maybe we would all shed a tear
She was once someone's joy, cast aside like a toy Abandoned, forsaken, unknown Every man standing by had a tear in his eye For some had a daughter at home
She may have seen better days when she was in her prime She may have seen better days once upon a time Though by the wayside she fell, she may yet mend her ways Some poor old mother is waiting for her who has seen better days
The crowd went away, but I longer did stay For from her I was loath to depart I knew by her moan, as she sat there alone That something was breaking her heart
She told me her life, she was once a good wife Respected and honoured by all Her husband had fled ere tney were long wed And tears down her cheeks sadly fell
She may have seen better days when she was in her prime She may have seen better days once upon a time Though by the wayside she fell, she may yet mend her ways Some poor old mother is waiting for her who has seen better days
She May Call You Up Tonight Composer(s): Michael David Lookofsky; Steve Carmelo Martin First release by: The Left Banke - 1967 Covered by multiple other artists
I've been telling lies I never knew all to keep that girl away from you but she may call you up tonight then what could I say that would sound right
Thoughts that raised my mind just pushed aside all the chances there that we once had but she may call you up tonight then what could I say that would sound right
And when I'm crying yes I know my mind is flying to a place where there's no trying but she may call you up tonight
I've been telling lies I never knew all to keep that girl away from you but she may call you up tonight then what could I say that would sound right
but she may call you up tonight then what could I say that would sound right then what could I say that would sound right
She May Be Composer(s): George Kooymans Performer(s): Golden Earring
She may be The girl you're holding tight She's the one I cried for every night I warn you friend It must be soon And she will say goodbye Just like mine Your arms and veins Will fly in the sky One thing I know for sure This happened once before She'll turn her back on you And take me in her arms again She may be The girl you're holding tight She's the one I cried for every night Now she's the kind of girl Who always flies around But someday soon she'll see it That I'm the only real love That mine's the only real love That mine's the only real love
She Made Toothpicks Of The Timber Of My Heart Composer(s): Sammy Mysels; Dick Sanford Performer(s): Homer & Jethro
Fer a backwoods gal was she And fer choppin' down a tree She was handy with an ax and she was smart Oh but I should have passed her by When she waved and hollered hi She made toothpicks of the timber of my heart
Well when whe promised to be mine I cut ninety logs of pine For a little cabin in our world of hearts All our dreams were heaven bound Till she tore that castle down She made toothpicks of the timber of my heartx
She made toothpicks of the timber of my heart She made toothpicks of the timber of my heart Like a buzzsaw rips a pole She made sawdust of my soul She made toothpicks of the timber of my heart
She was tall and she was limber And for timber she was fine But her lips were poison oak and turpentine She was cute and I was green Yes my darlin' lumber queen Twined me 'round her finger like a clingin' vine
Now I hang around the shack Jist a lonesome lumberjack Mighta knowed her heart Was wooden from the start When she snatched away her charms There were splinters in my arms She made toothpicks of the timber of my heart
She made toothpicks of the timber of my heart She made toothpicks of the timber of my heart When she rolled me down that hill And she run me thru the mill She made toothpicks of the timber of my heart

She Loved A Lot In Her Time Composer(s): Randy Boudreaux; Sam Hogin; Kim Williams Performer(s): George Jones
I started drinking and actin' crazy Way back in '65 Mama would pray and say he's my baby Lord please keep him alive
Sister came home with two little children Her man had left her alone Mama knew too well the hurt she'd been feelin' 'Cause Daddy'd been gone for so long
We all did our part to add to her pain We all broke her heart but she never complained
She loved a lot in her time She watched love grow and die on the vine She stood in the shadows So others could shine She loved a lot in her time
Mama's prayers were answered a long time ago I ain't touched a drink in 10 years Sister remarried to a Good Ol' Boy They don't live far from here
Mama's work is done Now she's gone on home... The words in our hearts Are engraved on her stone
She loved a lot in her time She watched love grow and die on the vine She stood in the shadows So others could shine She loved a lot in her time
She loved a lot in her time She watched love grow and die on the vine She stood in the shadows So others could shine She loved a lot in her time
Het is weer tijd om op te staan Maar ik heb geen zin (hij heeft geen zin) Om naar m'n baas te gaan Met m'n blote voeten op het kouwe zeil (Met z'n grote blote voeten op het kouwe zeil) Ik heb geen zin om op te staan Ik heb geen zin om op te staan (ik heb geen zin om op te staan)
Was jij maar hier, was jij maar hier Want het is zo fijn (het is zo fijn) Om hier met jou te zijn Met m'n voeten tegen je pyjama aan (Met z'n grote voeten tegen je pyjama aan) Ik heb geen zin om op te staan Ik heb geen zin om op te staan (ik heb geen zin om op te staan)
Ik blijf in bed, de hele dag Want ik heb geen zin (hij heeft geen zin) Om d'r nou nog uit te gaan Met m'n blote handen naar mijn baas te gaan (Met z'n grote blote handen naar z'n baas te gaan) Ik heb geen zin om op te staan Ik heb geen zin om op te staan (ik heb geen zin om op te staan) Ik heb geen zin om op te staan (ik heb geen zin om op te staan) Ik heb geen zin om op te staan (ik heb geen zin om op te staan)...
